In fact, when the waitress mentioned the three characters Li Jingtian, her eyes drifted obviously, and she felt a little guilty.
Lin Chen doesn't have much concept of gossip in the entertainment industry, but he somehow knows that Li Jingtian is a singer. A few days ago, he was scolded badly by a big star fan for a certain gossip.
He doesn't remember exactly why Li Jingtian was scolded. After all, when he was watching the news, he was sitting in Su Fengzi's ward, enduring the other person's long-winded and rambling words far beyond ordinary people, but the entertainment industry gossip is nothing more than that Whoever said what and offended whom, who was scolded badly by fans, or who and who did something bad was photographed, causing an uproar among netizens.
In short, it is similar, although it has nothing to do with you, you will be involuntarily attracted to things.
Lin Chen raised his head and saw that the waitress was trying to stop talking about the free tickets she sold over 500. I thought that Li Jingtian's reputation was probably not very good.
"No, I still want this rice noodle platter."
At this time, when Dynasty finished flipping through the entire menu, he waved his hand, but he didn't mean to kill Cong Lian.
He said, ordering the cheapest food in the entire menu except for drinks, licking his lips, and looking very happy.
The face of the waitress was a little dark. She only ordered the main food in the restaurant, of course, it was a very harassing behavior.
However, seeing that the young man had already closed the menu with a firm attitude, she did not sell it any further.
Lin Chen was then taken as the next target: "Then this gentleman, what do you want?"
Someone who is most demanding about eating has already made a choice, and following the order is the best choice, so Lin Chen put down the teacup and said simply, "Me too."
This time, the face of the waitress can no longer be described with an ugly expression: "Don't you need to order anything more, the restaurant's special dish Caiyunzhinan is still very recommended..."
"No need, no need, I've researched it, other dishes in your shop don't look expensive, but in fact the price-performance ratio is very low, just the presentation looks good." Without Lin Chen's opening, the dynasty was already talking endlessly, "The South of the Colorful Clouds Just cut some beef, sashimi, put some spring rolls, and put them on lettuce leaves. It looks like a peacock's tail, but what's the use of looking good, I think you comment on the scores on the Internet... "
Lin Chen couldn't help but want to laugh, being too smart is really easy to cause trouble, he stretched out his hand and pressed the boy's head, motioning him to save some face for the shopkeeper.
Seeing this scene, the waitress faced him directly and asked him embarrassingly, "Then this gentleman, do you need any more drinks?"
"Bring me a glass of orange juice." Lin Chen replied.
"I also want a rice noodle platter and a glass of Coke." Before waiting for the waiter to ask, Xing Conglian responded in advance, and said it for granted.
The waitress seemed too lazy to say anything, she nodded, took down the menu, turned around and left.
Dynasty was playing a drink card on his seat, and he had a lot of fun by opening and closing the two transparent panels.
Perhaps it was because the three men thought it was too shabby for the three men to go into the restaurant and only ordered three main dishes, and the young couple at the next table also began to whisper and say something.
Anyway, gossip is mostly those words.
"Are they saying that we are poor?" Chao Dynasty closed the drink card and asked Xing Conglian.
"Why are your ears so good?" Xing Conglian smiled and drank a sip of tea before asking.
"Because I grew up with all kinds of discrimination, I am particularly sensitive to this kind of cold words." Chao said in a low voice.
"It doesn't look like you are so mentally healthy, who brought you so well, Xiao Wang Xiansen." Xing Conglian continued to tease him.
"While we haven't served the food, why don't we return the order and leave?" Dynasty placed the drink list and suddenly tugged at Xing Conglian's cuff.
"What's wrong with you, isn't it because you want to eat the rice noodles here, that you are making a fuss about coming?" Xing Conglian put away his smile and asked seriously.
"Damn, how do you know, don't casually look into the privacy of teenagers?" Wang Dynasty clutched his chest and shrank to the corner.
"Whoever took my hand in front of the commercial while watching TV said excitedly, 'Boss, that Yunnan rice noodle in Caiyunjian, looks like it's eaten by monkeys'!"
Xing Conglian imitated the tone of the dynasty vividly, and the young man's face suddenly turned red: "I am not so greedy!"
"Eat if you want, you have come so far." Xing Conglian said with a smile.
Lin Chen has been sitting quietly, listening to Xing Conglian speak in a consoling tone, he raised his head, glanced at him, and asked Wang Chao, "Why do you suddenly want to leave?"
"I suddenly think they are so annoying." As Wang Chao spoke, he began to fold the napkins on the table again, "I will sell that one and then another, I just want to eat rice noodles, eat rice noodles, boss, I finally know why you like it so much. Big gear."
Hearing this, Xing Conglian was also speechless: "The food stalls are good, but I'm a little bit stylish sometimes, okay?"
"What's wrong with the food stalls?" Lin Chen interrupted Xing Conglian.
"There won't be so many people in the food stalls to care what you eat." Chao Dynasty folded a rose with a tissue and opened it again, "Boss, why don't we just stop eating it?"
If it were an ordinary parent, it would probably break the bear child's leg, but Xing Conglian was very happy. He rubbed Wang Chao's head and said, "I finally know that I have saved my father money. Dad is very pleased."
"Go away, don't take advantage of Lao Tzu." The young man knocked his hand off.
Lin Chen just wanted to laugh. Inside and outside the words of the dynasty, he was like a child from a poor family who wanted to go out to a restaurant and looked at the menu but thought it was too expensive. Although the situation was different, the general mood was not much different.
Xing Conglian was also very speechless: "So you have a rebellious mentality, right? Believe it or not, I will order each dish again."
He said it righteously, Lin Chen rarely had the urge to touch his forehead, he hurriedly interrupted the execution of Conglian again, rubbed the dynasty's head, and whispered, "Why do you care what others say?"
Wang Chao glanced back and said impatiently, "But this kind of feeling that someone is forcing you to make a choice is very uncomfortable."
"Who forced you, isn't the choice in your own hands?"
"I just think... What do I eat, why do they care, I just come here to order a glass of orange juice, and I'm happy... Why does it seem that if I order something less, I will be looked down upon, and what if I don't order it?"
The dynasty talked and talked, but couldn't go on.
"Yeah, you're right." Lin Chen said, "You think, if you just want to eat rice noodles, then just eat rice noodles. This is a very rational choice. For example, I think orange juice is very good, and I want to drink a glass of it. , is the same principle, just eat, just do whatever you want."
"but!"
"I said Xiao Wang Xiansen, have you been bipolar during adolescence recently?" Xing Conglian tapped the dynasty's head with chopsticks, "This is essentially a matter of 'none of your business' and 'none of my ass', most of the world's Troubled, you can use these two sentences to solve it, it's hard for you to struggle with this kind of thing, because you haven't read much recently, right?"
Lin Chen thought that the dynasty would refute again, but the young man started to make a sentence seriously: "It's none of your business what I want to eat, and it's none of your business what you say behind my back?"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize, patted the table lightly, and said seriously, "Boss, how do you know that I haven't studied recently, am I a little stupid?"
"Indeed, look how long it has been since you borrowed books?"
The dialogue between the two was very fast. If Lin Chen had not been accustomed to this style long ago, he would probably be at a loss now.
The topic has drifted all the way, from rice noodles to library reading records.
Lin Chen was also surprised. In fact, Xing Conglian didn't have half a book at home, and Dynasty was more of a game than the sky. Now, as soon as he heard them discussing the topic of reading, he had to go over his head before realizing it. Until they are really talking about reading.
"Are you monitoring my library's loan card records?" Dynasty suddenly sat up straight.
"Why do I need to monitor that? You play games every day and every night biubiubiu can't I hear you next door?" Xing Conglian educated.
"Isn't that because you haven't given me a book list for a long time?"
"Blame me?"
"Don't blame who you blame?"
At this moment, Lin Chen noticed Xing Conglian's gaze looking at him, he held the water cup and met Xing Conglian's gaze.
"In the future, let your brother Achen open the book list for you, and you will not be under my control."
Listening to Xing Conglian's words, he raised his eyebrows and said that he couldn't understand: "What?"
"It's seven books a month, that's all," said the dynasty.
Seven books a month, eighty books a year, although it is quite a lot, it is completely within the range that can be read. The key point is that this number is almost the upper limit of the number of books borrowed per card per month in all libraries.
"Your boss has made a book list for you, and you go to the library to borrow books yourself?"
"That's right, the boss is stingy!" Wang Dynasty looked like my boss was full of crimes, "But I can't blame him too much, mainly because we didn't live in almost every place for a long time before, buying books was too wasteful, And it’s very troublesome to move, so I went to the library to borrow it, but you said that now we…”
Xing Conglian coughed lightly, interrupting Wang Chao's words, he raised his chin, and saw that the previous waiter just brought rice noodles over.
Wang Chao happily rubbed his hands together, reached out to take the tray, and started eating, completely forgetting what he was going to say earlier.
Lin Chen looked at the captain of the criminal police sitting opposite him, and saw that the other party lowered his head slightly, as if his attention was completely attracted by the rice noodles, he was gobbling it, and he was not afraid of being hot.
It's just that the appearance is not sincere enough, and it is obvious that I feel that the interruption is too stiff, so I am very embarrassed.
It's really interesting to think about the education of my children after living without a fixed place for several years.
Lin Chen shook his head, thinking so.
Everyone has their own secrets, it's an obvious thing.
No matter how close and close friends you are, there are still some things you don't want to let the other person know.
Maybe it's the dark side of human nature, or maybe it's those unspeakable desires. In short, there is reservation, it doesn't mean that he doesn't trust you, you don't trust him, and there is no necessary connection between being close or not.
There is always something that cannot be said.
Lin Chen is very calm about these things.
He suddenly remembered that by the lake that night, Xing Conglian still didn't ask him about Huang Ze, about the Chen family and his past, let alone what happened to the case back then.
Although he also said that when Xing Cong Lian brought wine, he would definitely answer any questions.
but…
Lin Chen suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with Su Fengzi's words.
…
After dinner, the rain outside the window became heavier.
Of course, going home in the rain is not a good choice, but for the first time, Comrade Dynasty did not clamor for going to the big world playground on the third floor to kill the Quartet, but actually dragged them and started walking in the mall.
The smooth floor tiles reflect the gentle light, and the spotlights in the glass window are bright.
Dynasty seemed to be overwhelmed, walking very slowly, he occasionally looked up and looked around, and lowered his head to think about something, as if he was counting something.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chen glanced at Xing Conglian and asked.
"There are more possibilities..." Xing Conglian smacked his mouth, very helpless, "The first possibility is that he is playing Assassin's Creed in his mind, the second is calculating how to capture this mall in the shortest time, and..."
I really can't be idle for a moment, Lin Chen asked, "What else?"
"There is also the observation of the cameras here, the calculation of coverage and the range of blind spots."
"Bingo, boss, you are so smart!"
Dynasty suddenly stopped in front of the huge coconut tree in the hall. He looked up at the coconut tree in front of him and said this.
Looking at the atrium of the giant tree, the canopy is already on the fourth floor. A huge poster hangs on the tree. On the poster is a man with a refreshing smile, stretching out his hand, as if welcoming visitors from all directions.
"On May 8, the opening ceremony of Ansheng International Mall, Li Jingtian invites you to come and see."
Dynasty read the words on the poster word by word: "It turns out that this place is still in trial operation... So what kind of fan meeting is actually a gimmick for the opening ceremony?"
"Probably so, is there any problem?" Lin Chen asked.
"The problem is nothing, but this poster is too big, blocking the wide-angle monitoring."
