"Where is this?" Hua Jin looked up and looked at the red lanterns hanging on both sides of the courtyard door. It was very quiet inside the door, not as lively as an ordinary hotel.

"It's a private restaurant that doesn't accept ordinary guests. The chef inside is very skilled in cooking." Pei Yan stepped into the threshold and said, "Let's go."

Hua Jin picked up the doorframe and blinked at Pei Yan: "Mr. Pei, you know I'm from the village, right?"

"I just said I wanted to thank you, are you planning to regret it now?" Pei Yan almost laughed at Hua Jin, "My kindness to you is not worth a meal?"

"Don't talk about a meal, even a month's meal is more than enough." Hua Jin looked innocent, "But the key is that I don't have much money. I'm afraid that I won't have enough money when I pay the bill later, and I will lose it. I can’t afford this person.”

"Isn't it shameful to linger at the door and not come in?"

"This is at least a loss of face and not money. Otherwise, I'll repay you by being a bull and a horse."

"There is a joke on the Internet that a woman will repay a man she doesn't like by being a cow or a horse, and she will promise her body to a man she likes." Pei Yan squinted at Hua Jin, "What do you think?"

"Promising oneself requires the mutual consent of both parties." Hua Jin lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "If the promise of oneself brings a lot of trouble to the person repaying the favor, then that's not It’s called repaying kindness, it’s called revenge.”

"Huh, you're pretty good at making excuses." Seeing that she was still holding on to the doorframe, Pei Yan reached out and grabbed her arm and pulled her in. "Don't worry, it won't cost you much."

After taking a few steps forward, Pei Yan suddenly remembered something. He looked down at Hua Jin's knees and slowed down, "There is a chef in this private restaurant who is very good at cooking Sichuan cuisine."

Hua Jin looked up in shock.

"When my grandfather was still alive, I liked to eat his food. You are from Shu Province. Please help me try it later to see if his food is authentic Sichuan flavor."

Hua Jin buried her head again: "Oh."

There are not many people eating in this place, but that doesn't mean there are no people. When someone discovered that Pei Yan brought a young girl here for dinner, they couldn't help but be surprised.

As for Pei Yan's unpredictable temper, who can stand it except a woman who just wants to take advantage of him and leave? If you live with him for the rest of your life, will you suffer from mental illness?

Some people were hesitant to say hello, but when they saw Pei Yan taking the initiative to pull the girl's wrist, they retracted their heads wisely. In today's world, if you influence others to fall in love, it will be bad luck.

If this good thing is ruined, there will be more trouble.

Hua Jin found that Pei Yan was very familiar with this place. It seemed that he often came here to eat.

Through the arch, someone came to lead the way and led them to a private room: "Mr. Pei, is it still the same?"

"I'm eating Sichuan food today." Pei Yan took a sip of the appetizer tea and said, "I'm tired of eating those same things all the time."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The receptionist bowed slightly to the two of them and exited the private room.

Hua Jin raised his head and looked at the calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, "Fresh crucian carp eats silk noodles, parsley and green soup. Sichuan wine is rich and unparalleled, and river fish are delicious. The poems of the poet sage are just right to hang here." ”

"Hey, I didn't see that you knew a lot about this." Pei Yan glanced at the paintings on the wall. They were all modern imitations, not high-quality paintings.

"Of course. When I was in high school, I ranked first in the school, and I never lost the top three in Chinese." Hua Jin took a sip of her appetizer tea, "Even if I don't know how to be elegant, I can still do it. Just pretend to show off."

You have such excellent results, but you come out to work so early?

Pei Yan's hand holding the tea trembled slightly. He looked at Hua Jin who looked calm, and that feeling of irritation reappeared. He raised his head and touched his chest, trying to suppress the uncomfortable feeling.

The food is served very quickly. Some time-consuming dishes could not be made because Pei Yan did not make reservations in advance.

Hua Jin tasted a few chopsticks and couldn't comment on whether the taste of these dishes was authentic, but they tasted good. Heroes don't care about going out, and delicious dishes don't care about the cuisine.

After unknowingly eating two bowls of rice, Hua Jin sighed with her belly: "Eating meat feels good for a while, but losing weight makes me cry."

"I'm already so thin, why should I lose weight?" Pei Yan poured a cup of tea for Hua Jin, "Here, take it, the digestion tea."

"Thank you." Hua Jin took the tea cup and took a sip, remembering what happened last time she went to Jiangjiu Market with Pei Yan, "There seems to be a marketing account on the Internet setting the pace, hinting to netizens that the person who works in Jiangjiu City The kind-hearted person who did not leave his name behind for doing good deeds is related to a certain artist. However, this artist is very smart and did not respond directly to this matter. Even if you stand up and say that you are the kind-hearted person who called the police to save people, he can still push himself away. Clean and tidy."

"Anyone with some brains would not dare to openly blame the good deeds of others on themselves." Pei Yan took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet, "Who is this actor? I have never heard of it. ”

"These media really like to brag with their eyes closed. With a photo of you sitting here, blurry to the point where you can't see your face, how can you praise how beautiful you are..."

Hua Jin squeezed the teacup in her hand tightly, wanting to smash it over.

"And here, what about a graceful figure, a refined temperament... all made up."

She didn't want to smash the cup, she wanted to smash the teapot.

After reading a few reports, Pei Yan locked the screen of his mobile phone: "This kind of hype will not have much effect, and netizens will soon forget it. I don't care about this kind of small artist, it will lower my status." ."

As he said this, he immediately lowered his head and sent a message to his assistant, saying that he would not have any cooperation with this artist after naming him. It's normal for artists to create a persona and find topics for themselves. But whether you are an artist or an ordinary person, you should not use this kind of thing to hype up. This is the bottom line of being a human being.

After drinking digestion tea for a while, Hua Jin and Pei Yan walked out of the private room. Colored lanterns were hung in the yard, which was very beautiful at night.

"These lamps..." Hua Jin looked at them carefully for a while, "Some of them seem to be handmade?"

Pei Yan stared at the lamp for a while. He really couldn't see any difference between handmade and non-handmade. Could it be that those who engage in traditional handicrafts have an innate intuition about handicrafts?

"Mr. Pei is really in high spirits. Why don't you accompany your friends to enjoy the lanterns?"

Hua Jin looked back and saw a man in a suit and glasses walking towards her. When the man got closer, Hua Jin found that he was around sixty years old, with a serious expression, which made her think of the word "gentleman".

It is difficult for people to dislike such people, but it is also difficult for them to feel close to them. She turned her head to look at Pei Yan's expression. The man had no expression at all at the moment, as if the man walking over didn't exist at all.

The atmosphere changed as Pei Yan ignored the man, and gradually became colder. The air was filled with lingering embarrassment.

This serious-looking man didn't seem to notice Pei Yan's indifference at all. Instead, he nodded to Hua Jin: "You seem a bit unfamiliar. Is this your first time in a place like this? This is a rare opportunity. Let's Mr. Pei will accompany you for a while."

Hua Jin vaguely felt that there was something wrong with these words, as if he was mocking her for not having been to such a place before, and also trying to put on airs to make arrangements for Pei Yan. Hua Jin has encountered many people at work who seem serious and serious, but actually like to pay attention to status and seniority. If you don't want to conflict with such people, just keep smiling.

"I heard that Mr. Xu's baby, Du Miaomiao, went in. I wonder if she has been released?" Pei Yan's lips slightly turned upward, outlining a mocking arc, "Young people are not sensible, so stay in there for a while. , maybe he will grow up."

"Thank you for your kind words." The expression on Mr. Xu's face was almost unbearable. Just when Hua Jin thought he was going to explode, Mr. Xu actually had the energy to smile politely at her, so he didn't hesitate. to leave.

"This person..."

"This family is not a good family." Pei Yan could not hide his disgust for the Xu family in his words, "Two or three months ago, this little **** from the Xu family asked some friends to go racing. These people are so courageous. He was actually driving in the city. When he ran through a traffic light, the second son of the Chen family noticed something was wrong, twisted the steering wheel and hit the guardrail. The little **** of the Xu family actually rushed over, sending a pedestrian crossing the zebra crossing to the emergency room. He was rescued in the room. Although his life was saved, his legs were gone."

"The Xu family is so pampered by this baby, even if he has done something wrong, they will blindly cover him up. If it weren't for the previous car accident that was too big, the online public opinion could not be suppressed, and the victim was unwilling to sign a letter of understanding. , how can the Xu family be willing to let their only Miaomiao be imprisoned?" Pei Yan sneered, "Even though some people dress like dogs, when they do things, their hands are so dirty that you can't even look at them. In the future, you will see People like this should be smart and run as far as they can."

"Why is your face so pale?" Pei Yan noticed that Hua Jin's face was not pretty, "Are you feeling well?"

"It's okay." Hua Jin shook his head, "I just think that the passerby who was hit was really unlucky."

"One of the people who played with Xu Wangba that day was Chen Jiang. He immediately called the police after his accident. Although Chen Jiang is not a good person, he is bad enough to have a bottom line and will not joke with human life." Pei Yan Yan laughed with unknown meaning, "It was his greatest luck to have Chen Jiang present that day."

Hua Jin understood the unfinished meaning of Pei Yan's words and looked back at the direction the man left just now, feeling a little out of breath: "It's very late, I should go back."

Pei Yan glanced at her: "I'll give it to you."

When paying the bill, Hua Jin found that the meal was indeed not expensive. She turned to look at Pei Yan. He was leaning against the door and looking at her with a half-smile, his eyes full of narrowness.

After the two people left, the staff member in charge of collecting money said to his colleague: "I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing. It's my first time for a female companion to come here to eat. I obviously have a distinguished membership card, and I want a female companion." Come and pay the balance later. Mr. Pei is so rich, there is no need to save this little money."

"So he still doesn't have a girlfriend." A colleague said while registering the accounts, "No one can save a single man based on his strength."

Hua Jin sat in Pei Yan's car and received a message from Tan Yuan.

Tangyuan: Huahua, is that Mr. Pei your friend?

Fanhua: If you are in the mood to care about my gossip, it seems that you are fine.

Tangyuan: Not long ago, you said you would pick up trash to support me. It has only been a few hours, but you are starting to dislike me for being nosy?

Fanhua: I know you are caring about me. Don’t worry, I know it well.

Tangyuan: Judging from my experience of watching TV series for more than 20 years, every protagonist and supporting character who says he knows what is going on will eventually fall into a pit.
