Lin Wanqing had dined on Western cuisine with her parents and even attended so piano-related discussion etings, most of which were associated with Western dining.
However, visiting a place like this for a al was a first for her.
This place, with its modern European retro-style decor and elegant piano music, exuded a warm, ambiguous atmosphere. Basically, the people who ca here for Western food were either couples or those in extramarital affairs.
Nonetheless, with the good environnt and high ambience, dining here naturally felt comfortable.
Ye Qiu and Lin Wanqing sat down at a table ant for couples, and the waitress handed the thick nu to Lin Wanqing.
Of course, ladies first, so Lin Wanqing was asked to order first.
When Lin Wanqing handed the nu to Ye Qiu, he didn’t even need to look it over.
"Two well-done steaks, two portions of borscht, two servings of pasta, one fruit pizza, and a bottle of imported French wine around two thousand yuan. That’ll be all for now!"
After the waitress noted down the order and left, Lin Wanqing curiously asked him, "Do you eat out often?"
"Occasionally with Liu Lingxiu and Li Qianqian," Ye Qiu replied.
Hearing Ye Qiu say that, Lin Wanqing seed to understand why the waitress had given her a rather unusual look earlier; she had thought Ye Qiu was with another new beautiful companion.
In fact, Ye Qiu hadn’t swapped companions; he had just brought her out this ti.
"This isn’t much. When there’s ti, having a French gourt al with you would be a true Western dining experience."
Ye Qiu said.
"When will you take ?"
Lin Wanqing asked imdiately.
Ye Qiu knew that the French cuisine nearby wasn’t quite authentic. The dishes in East Sea City were relatively authentic, but of course, traveling to France would offer the most genuine experience.
"If you want authentic royal French dishes, you’d have to go to France. Eating at East Sea would do here in our country."
Lin Wanqing didn’t know what to say about Ye Qiu. She felt Ye Qiu truly had money, yet his attire seed very ordinary.
In this regard, Lin Wanqing was unsure of how to comnt on Ye Qiu.
The two of them were chatting quietly when Lin Wanqing inquired about the Prince Perfu, to which Ye Qiu replied, "I created this piece for Prince Perfu, which is about to hit the market. You might want to buy it and take a whiff then, and perhaps you’ll feel the charm of my composition."
Lin Wanqing had never used costics or perfus, but to her surprise, this was actually an advertisent slogan and the song created for Prince Perfu.
"So, whom does Prince Perfu belong to?"
Ye Qiu didn’t say anything, but Lin Wanqing seed to understand.
In the Western restaurant, when a fashionably-dressed young man in a suit and a young woman in a dress were eating steak, the young man got up to use the restroom and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity upon seeing soone.
Huh?
Isn’t that Lin Professor’s daughter, Lin Wanqing?
Lin Professor and his wife were mbers of the Jinling Piano Association council, while Lin Wanqing was a mber of the Piano Association. Jin You’s father was also the Deputy Secretary-General of the association council.
It could be said that the Piano Association was both semi-official and semi-private, with participation from governnt officials, university Music Academy professors, and many celebrities and pianists.
This Piano Association could be considered to have a high level of cultural quality and literacy. Moreover, pianos are inherently costly, and piano lessons even more so; most families couldn’t afford to raise a child learning piano.
Therefore, being able to join the Piano Association surely ant having a connection to pianos, and also, having money, no doubt about that.
Jin You was very surprised to see Lin Wanqing in a dress, looking elegant and pretty, sitting with a rather plain-dressed young man.
Besides, the two were chatting and laughing, which Jin You found strange.
Could my eyes be deceiving ?
The last ti he t Lin Wanqing, he wanted to pursue her, but later he heard from Lin Wanqing’s parents that they were preventing their daughter from dating too early, leading Jin You to temporarily give up pursuing Lin Wanqing.
After thinking it over, Jin You decided to approach Lin Wanqing.
"Miss Lin, I didn’t expect to see you here," Jin You greeted.
Upon hearing that, Ye Qiu looked up and saw a slightly handso, suave-looking young man in a suit standing in front of him and Lin Wanqing. For a mont, Ye Qiu wondered who it was.
Lin Wanqing looked at him, feeling unfamiliar, and asked, "Hello, may I ask who you are?"
"Lin Wanqing, you must have forgotten. I’m a mber of the Piano Association. My father is the Deputy Secretary-General of the council and is quite familiar with your parents."
It turned out he was a mber of the Jinling Piano Association. Lin Wanqing initially wondered who he was. However, she rarely attended the association’s regular etings or events, which her parents often attended as they were council mbers.
Nonetheless, Lin Wanqing didn’t want to participate.
She hadn’t expected to et a council mber here.
But she wasn’t familiar with him!
She thought he recognized her and just wanted to say hello, which was normal!
"And your friend here is?"
Seeing Lin Wanqing’s silence, Jin You turned his attention to Ye Qiu beside her, scrutinizing him. He wondered how such an ordinary young man was worthy of sitting across from soone as elegant and beautiful as Lin Wanqing.
"You’re asking who I am? I can tell you, Lin Wanqing is my girlfriend. If you wanted to pursue her, you’re too late, and that’s just an impossibility," Ye Qiu candidly replied.
Jin You’s face flushed red, not expecting the young man to say that so openly. Not only did Lin Wanqing hear it, but the surrounding custors and even the waitress could hear it, making Jin You feel embarrassed.
It’s said, see through but not say through.
But that little desire in his heart was sothing any man would understand. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to co over and say hello, especially when Lin Wanqing didn’t recognize him, yet he disclosed his parents’ identities to show off in front of the opposite gender.
This kind of person, Ye Qiu had seen plenty of.
It’s true what they say, ’a beautiful flower attracts butterflies for a reason.’
"Ye Qiu, when did I beco your girlfriend?" Lin Wanqing laughed as she asked.
"If you’re not, then why co with to have a couples’ dinner?" Ye Qiu replied.
Lin Wanqing naturally flushed red, while Jin You, on the other hand, couldn’t understand their relationship. However, he felt Ye Qiu was a toad lusting after a swan, hardly suitable for the elegant and beautiful Lin Wanqing.
Seeing his female friend casting glances his way, Jin You didn’t stay longer, but he did give Lin Wanqing one last look of regret.
After Jin You left, Ye Qiu said, "Did you notice? He brought a girl to have Western food here, and they might head to a hotel after. Unexpectedly, upon seeing you, he ca over to greet you. That’s just how n are, eating from the bowl while glancing at the pot."
