This girl was as happy to see the meat as a beast seeing a lamb. Ye Feng couldn't help but smile and ordered two steak sets.
The waiter took the menu and went to prepare the food.
Seeing Ye Feng laughing at her, Mo Lingshan asked coldly, "What are you laughing at? Can't I eat steak?"
Ye Feng explained with a smile: "No, anyone can eat steak, you should. I just feel that when you heard about eating steak, your eyes glowed green like a wolf seeing a lamb. Are you under special restrictions in Fangcun Mountain? You can't eat this kind of meat?"
Ye Feng's words really touched Mo Lingshan's heart.
Mo Lingshan actually wanted to confide in someone, and she looked helpless.
"You guessed it right. My great grandfather was very controlling of me. He was afraid that I would get fat, so he didn't let me eat meat. He was afraid that I would get weak and sick, so he forced me to practice martial arts. He was afraid that I would be in danger, so he sent people to watch me everywhere, and he wouldn't let me come out to see my grandmother. I was so angry that I ran away."
"It seems that the life of a young lady, with all the finery and luxury, is not comfortable at all."
"Alas, you have never lived in that kind of environment. I don't have to think about what to wear, what to eat, and what kung fu to learn. As long as I open my eyes every day, someone will hand me clothes, bring me food, send me sword manuals, feed me elixirs, and have a bunch of people to serve me. I have endless money and everything I can use. In the eyes of outsiders, this kind of life is pampered and very happy, but if you live like this for ten years, you will go crazy. You feel like a little canary, locked in a cage all the time."
From the crystal tears in Mo Lingshan's eyes, Ye Feng felt her sadness and helplessness. The little princess also had her own troubles and depression.
Ye Feng had always disliked Mo Lingshan, thinking that she was too proud, spoiled, and had no moral conduct. In fact, he couldn't blame her for all this, and he couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for her.
"Take steak for example. I can't even eat it. It's not that there's no steak, but I just can't have it."
"Then today, I will let you eat as much as you want. Just order as many pieces as you want."
Ye Feng's kindness did not win Mo Lingshan's thanks. Mo Lingshan glared at Ye Feng with contempt: "Are you helping me or harming me? It's good enough for me to eat one piece of steak. Do you really think I'm a pig if I eat a few pieces
Ye Feng also mocked her, "You really should change your temper, young lady. I'm doing this for your own good, but you still scold me. You're so mean. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get married?"
"Can't get married? I'm the little princess of Fangcun Mountain. The people waiting to marry me can line up from here to Changbai Mountain. Are you afraid that I can't get married? I don't have to worry at all. When the time comes, my great grandfather will arrange it for me. Who I like and who I marry are not up to me. My destiny can be summed up in two words: obey."
At first, Ye Feng thought Mo Lingshan was showing off that many people were pursuing her, but later he could hear her helplessness and sadness.
If a person cannot even decide who she likes, loves, and marries, her life will be so boring and painful.
"So you ran away."
There were only two of them in the huge restaurant, and by spending the price of two steak sets, they could enjoy the pleasure of renting the whole restaurant, with everything specially designed for them.
What’s funny is that the waiter mistook them for a couple. I don’t know if he was bored or wanted to save electricity, but he lit two candlesticks, placed them on the dining table, and turned off half of the lights in the restaurant.
The two looked at each other and watched the flickering candlelight. There was a romantic feeling of a candlelight dinner, except there was an elegant violinist playing touching music beside them.
Just as I thought of it, it came true. Beautiful violin music rang out in the restaurant, elegant, lingering, romantic and moving.
Ye Feng and Mo Lingshan both laughed. They really didn’t know whether they should thank the waiter or scold him.
Mo Lingshan was drugged after drinking red wine at the bar, so she probably wouldn't want to drink anymore. Ye Feng asked with a smile, "Do you want to drink some red wine?"
Mo Lingshan really accepted everyone who came and shook her hair: "Okay, you won't drug me again, right?"
Ye Feng's smile was full of temptation: "With my skills, if I take a fancy to you, do I need to drug you?"
Mo Lingshan blushed slightly and said coquettishly, "Shameless."
Ye Feng laughed: "I am just telling the truth. I am not a lustful person. Although I like beautiful women, I never use those rogue methods. I am a heart thief, and I only steal the hearts of young girls."
Giving Ye Feng a coquettish look, Mo Lingshan pouted and said with disdain, "You talk so pretentiously, are you any different from them? Dating without the intention of getting married is just hooliganism. Do you want to steal my heart?"
There was a hint of provocation in Mo Lingshan's words, and there was a complicated emotion in her eyes when she looked at Ye Feng. She actually wanted to hear Ye Feng say, "I want to steal your heart." However, Ye Feng's words made her so angry that she almost started scolding him again.
Ye Feng shook his head solemnly: "I want to make it clear that you are just a child. I will not steal a child's heart. Don't worry, you are 100% safe with me."
"What are you talking about? You're disgusting. Who is the kid? I'm already seventeen."
"Waiter, give us a bottle of red wine and a bottle of Louis XVIII. How much?"
The waiter showed a satisfied smile on his face. In order to encourage Ye Feng to spend money, he had taken great pains to light candles and play music. If this kid didn't have some red wine, it would be a waste of this romantic atmosphere.
"Twelve thousand and one hundred and twenty-one."
"Give us a**."
Mo Lingshan smiled cleverly: "I also declare that the set meal is on my table, but you have to buy the wine."
Bang! The waiter moved very quickly and opened a glass of red wine for Ye Feng and the other person.
Ye Feng smiled bitterly: "I just wanted to have a midnight snack for a few dozen yuan, how did it turn into a feast that costs tens of thousands of yuan?"
Shaking the amber Louis XVIII in the glass, a rich aroma of wine wafted out.
The waiter brought the steaming hot steak to the table.
As soon as the steak was served, still steaming hot, Mo Lingshan couldn't wait. She picked up the knife, cut a piece, put it in her mouth, and chewed it with relish. Her red lips were covered with grease stains from eating so much.
Ye Feng came to the restaurant because he was hungry, but when he saw Mo Lingshan wolfing down the steak, he realized that this girl was even hungrier than him.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't burn your mouth, have a drink first."
At Ye Feng's suggestion, Mo Lingshan and Ye Feng gently clinked their glasses. Mo Lingshan's snow-white face looked rosy and lovely under the candlelight, and her eyes were as bright as twinkling stars.
“This is the happiest meal I have ever had.”
"Is it because of this damn Louis XVIII?"
"It's because I've been suppressing my feelings for more than ten years, and now I can finally speak them out. Thank you for being my audience."
