Only Jiang Jinjin and Zhou's father and son were left in the box.
She was still flipping through the menu, the three big boys were all in puberty, and they had a busy day today, so they must have a good appetite. Since Zhou Mingfeng paid the bill, she naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity to pluck the wool. While flipping through the pages, she talked to Zhou Mingfeng, "Do you want to eat abalone in thick sauce?"
She wanted to order it before Zhou Mingfeng came.
But when she saw the price, she was discouraged. It was definitely not something she could afford. She couldn't hold back her curiosity, and asked the waiter what kind of abalone it was.
The waiter said it was a top-quality abalone. Originally, the restaurant also had a limited supply of top-quality online abalones, but they came by accident. This one was booked early, and it was sold out in the afternoon.
Zhou Mingfeng said warmly: "You can order."
Jiang Jinjin: "Good!"
Although Zhou Mingfeng would only nod and say yes, Jiang Jinjin would always ask for his opinion before adding any dish.
After all, the one who pays the bill is the boss.
The two were chatting quietly, Jiang Jinjin suddenly realized that there was another protagonist in the box, so he closed the menu, looked at Zhou Yan, and asked, "Zhou Yan, can you see if there is anything you want to eat?" ?”
Jiang Jinjin and Zhou Yan explained with their strength that stepmother and stepson can get along like roommates and classmates.
Zhou Yan didn't have any malice towards Jiang Jinjin from the beginning to the end, nor was he full of hostility towards the stepmother who "robbed" his father, as others thought.
The reason is probably that he is used to it. It was the first time he participated in his mother's wedding with someone else, and he also felt uncomfortable. This kind of feeling is familiar once, and he experienced it three times before his father remarried. Can he not be familiar with it
He didn't reject the three stepfathers in the past, did he treat them differently when he came to the stepmother
Zhou Yan replied calmly: "No."
"Yeah." Jiang Jinjin took the menu back without raising his head, and asked again: "What do you want to drink? Juice or sour plum soup?"
"casual."
"I don't know if the sour plum soup is good or not," Jiang Jinjin seemed to be talking to himself, or to Zhou Yan, "Why don't you drink fruit juice, some apple juice and orange juice?"
Zhou Yan: "Yes."
"What about you?" Jiang Jinjin turned his head to look at Zhou Mingfeng.
Zhou Mingfeng was listening to the conversation between the two with a faint smile on his face, but he didn't expect that she would ask him suddenly, and the two of them looked at each other again unexpectedly.
"what?"
"Do you want to drink?" Jiang Jinjin said, "But the wine here doesn't seem very good, do you drink it? Red or white?"
Zhou Mingfeng: "..."
He shook his head, "No need."
"That's good." Jiang Jinjin had a sense of accomplishment, and always felt that he must have ordered a table of delicious dishes, "That's it, ah, I'm hungry."
After a busy day, I didn't eat anything at noon, and I was so hungry that my chest was sticking to my back.
It may be that the air conditioner in the private room is turned on comfortably, or it may be that this big meal has found someone who pays the bill. Jiang Jinjin was in a relaxed mood, and said by the way: "I can eat a cow now."
Zhou Mingfeng chuckled lightly.
Zhou Yan watched the two of them get closer, and listened to their occasional chat, and suddenly had the idea that he should go to the bathroom just now.
Although the business of this restaurant is booming, there is no noise in the store, and no one is coming and going in the corridor.
After Yan Zhengfei and Xu Congjian came out, they subconsciously walked towards the bathroom. When they were almost at the door, Yan Zhengfei lowered his voice and said, "Let's go back later and find an excuse to slip away."
Xu Congjian glanced at him lightly.
Yan Zhengfei was also tall, but standing next to Xu Congjian, he was a few centimeters shorter.
Although Xu Congjian didn't say anything, Yan Zhengfei also felt his indifference and the underlying words of "too lazy to talk to you".
Yan Zhengfei persisted, "You see, there are three people in this family, so what's the point of the two of us joining in, otherwise, when you go in, you will say that something is wrong with your family, and I will find an excuse to sneak behind you..."
"After we go out, shall I treat you to dinner?" Yan Zhengfei added.
Xu Congjian glanced at him, unable to see any expression, "No, she is my boss."
Yan Zhengfei choked up.
I didn't know what to say, and when I entered the bathroom, Xu Congjian just stood in front of the sink, leaned slightly, turned on the tap, and washed his hands slowly.
Yan Zhengfei couldn't utter words of persuasion.
First, he is a scumbag who is not familiar with a god like Xu Congjian. Before today, neither of them had spoken.
Second, Xu Congjian seems to be in a different situation from him. Like, he can call Brother Yan's stepmother his aunt, but in Xu Congjian's case, Brother Yan's stepmother is his boss.
"Okay!" Yan Zhengfei reluctantly followed Xu Congjian back to the box.
The speed of serving food in the restaurant is still very fast.
Just as Jiang Jinjin thought, the three boys were all tired and hungry today, and Yan Zhengfei, who had been thinking about leaving just now, was now burying his head in hard work.
She's all right. It may be that after a period of hunger, I ate very fast when I first moved my chopsticks. After a while, when I was full, my eating speed slowed down, and I was even interested in observing the eating patterns of other people on the table.
After looking around at the three boys on the opposite side one by one, he didn't have time to stop his eyes, and met Zhou Mingfeng's eyes again.
Only then did she notice that he barely moved his chopsticks.
"Aren't you hungry?" Jiang Jinjin faced his gaze calmly and asked doubtfully.
Zhou Mingfeng was wearing a white shirt, probably due to the hot weather. He rolled his sleeves up to his elbows, exposing his lean arms.
He wears a watch on his left wrist.
Her gaze touched the watch involuntarily, and she couldn't move away.
Good guy, what is it like to wear a large flat in the city center, she would like to invite him to answer.
Jiang Jinjin doesn't know much about watches. It's just that she happened to be on annual leave before wearing the book, so she helped her friend collect information on luxury accessories. It happened that her friend was doing a column about watches, and the two of them searched a lot of information on the Internet together. Therefore, she was very impressed with Zhou Mingfeng's watch.
The watchmaking craftsman is exquisite and superb. This watch has extremely complicated functions and is worth eight figures. When she saw it, she joked with her friends that what she was wearing was not a watch, but a set of super-good flats.
She once again had a new understanding of Zhou Mingfeng's financial resources.
Thinking about myself again, as his wife, she actually started a small business of opening a convenience store.
No wonder those wives praised her as "youth is vitality"...
Being young is not about having vitality, but about having to move bricks.
The husband and wife used their strength to deduce what is rich and what is abject.
Zhou Mingfeng smiled lightly and said, "I ate some at the dinner just now."
Jiang Jinjin hummed.
If she continued to watch, she was afraid that she would hate the rich if she couldn't help it.
Jiang Jinjin ordered a large table of dishes. After the three boys were full and put down their chopsticks, there was still a lot of unfinished seafood left. If Jiang Jinjin was really a wealthy lady, she would definitely not care about it, but the point is, she used to be a member of the proletarian working class. Thinking about the prices marked on the menu, she has no way to deal with the leftovers. Seafood turned a blind eye.
Food cannot be wasted.
Jiang Jinjin blurted out: "Pack it up."
After Yan Zhengfei was full, he felt extremely sleepy. If the situation did not allow it, he really wanted to find a sofa to lie down and sleep.
Zhou Mingfeng raised his eyes.
Jiang Jinjin said: "It's a pity to waste it, let's do it this way." She glanced at the three boys again, "Yan Zhengfei, I think you really like this abalone, do you want to pack it back for supper?"
Yan Zhengfei waved his hands weakly, "No, I can't eat, and I'm going to throw up if I eat any more."
"Okay then." Jiang Jinjin looked at Zhou Yan again.
Zhou Yan shook his head.
Jiang Jinjin showed regret, took inventory of the remaining seafood, and said in a natural tone: "I want to pack this swimming crab and eat it at night. By the way, Xu Congjian, you can take the abalone and lobster home?"
Xu Congjian paused.
This meal was the most expensive he had eaten in the past eighteen years.
Although the young man has been struggling in life, he also has the self-esteem that cannot be discarded at this age.
He was eating seafood, thinking in his heart that he would bring his mother over to eat after work.
Maybe it was Jiang Jinjin's tone that was too natural, maybe it was her words, Xu Congjian who didn't want to nod at first actually hummed.
Jiang Jinjin was satisfied, "Okay, waiter, bring four packed boxes, Xu Congjian, this seafood porridge hasn't been touched, half for each of us?"
Zhou Mingfeng listened and watched calmly.
He didn't spend much time with her, but he still noticed some of her little habits.
How can a person who can't even drink water after 8 o'clock in the evening eat supper.
The waiter quickly packed the seafood. The boxes and bags were very delicate. Jiang Jinjin handed the bag to Xu Congjian and said with a smile, "Come early tomorrow. The business is definitely not as good as today, but it should not be bad. Publicity Remember to change the big-character poster as well.”
Xu Congjian nodded and reached out to take it.
His fingers are long and clean, with well-defined bones.
The three boys walked in front and left the restaurant first. Jiang Jinjin and Zhou Mingfeng were still a few steps behind in the private room. The waiter came to check out, and Jiang Jinjin stood aside and watched curiously, wanting to see what posture the boss usually uses to pay the bill.
Zhou Mingfeng naturally did not ignore her curious and probing eyes.
Open the wallet, randomly pull out a card from it and hand it to the waiter.
Jiang Jinjin's eyesight is good, and he noticed two black cards in his wallet!
Judging from the exposed edges of the cards, one should be the legendary American Express black card, and the other is a black card issued by a domestic bank.
Liu Liu Liu, what kind of sound is it? It's the sound of tears streaming from the corners of the mouth of the villain in her heart.
A local dog is like her, let alone two black cards, if you can have one in this life, that is 365 days a year, and you have to show off on social networking sites every day.
She didn't want to watch it any more.
His eyes shifted to his hands.
Just now he was only looking at his wristwatch, but now he noticed his hands in order to divert his hatred for Fu.
Judging from visual inspection, Zhou Mingfeng's fingers are slightly longer than Xu Congjian's. Thirty-nine and eighteen years old, 21 years apart, even if Xu Congjian's life is not easy, judging from the hands, they are also But what a twenty-year-old should look like.
There was a shallow scar on Zhou Mingfeng's left hand.
She suddenly remembered that one or two mornings, when he was still leisurely, occasionally casually reading the newspaper, the subtle sound made by his fingertips turning over the paper.
"Let's go."
Hearing the low male voice, Jiang Jinjin raised his head, just in time to see his eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses.
She was shocked, and when she came back to her senses, she asked herself in her heart: Can you really afford this man who has at least two black cards and wears a flat coat on his hand
It must not be soaked.
Jiang Jinjin's throbbing heart suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
