The Common Ground
From Tang Yun's perspective, those rich young masters or daughters in those soap operas would always have a CEO with them when they went to their family's hotels and malls, flattering them …
This was also why Tang Yun felt that there was a gap between her and the Miss, but now it seemed that the Miss really was low-key. No one here knew her, and she didn't act like a Miss at all.
Mengyao may have grown up in a rich family, but she didn't develop a domineering personality. One reason was because Pengzhan's upbringing was strict, and the other was because the Miss was a lonely person. She didn't make friends easily. Yushu was the only good friend she'd had since she was young, and the others weren't that good. Thus, the Miss wasn't led astray by bad friends.
They both didn't have a mother's love, and this caused Mengyao and Xiaoxiao to have extreme personalities. They had one thing in common, and that was that they didn't have too many friends! Mengyao only had Yushu, and Xiaoxiao didn't have any!
But the Miss was better than Xiaoxiao in the sense that her mother wasn't dead. There was still hope! And with Shu's company, she wasn't that lonely. Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, had nothing, and she had a terminal illness. She could only squander her life to realize the value of her short life.
Entering the room, Mengyao gave the menu and machine to Tang Yun for her to order. But Tang Yun had never been to such a high class restaurant before. She flipped through two pages and was shocked by the price. Why was it so expensive? One dish was enough to cover her family's food expenses for more than a week!
Plus, this place had a buffet system. After seeing the dish on the menu, she just had to enter a code into the machine, and it would show if the kitchen could cook the dish or not. But Tang Yun didn't know how to use this thing.
"I don't know how to order … You do it." Tang Yun was honest. She was poor, and there was no need to pretend in front of Mengyao. She handed the menu and machine back to Mengyao.
Mengyao could guess Tang Yun's dilemma. She took the menu and ordered a few dishes without saying anything. She didn't want to eat things like bird's nest and shark's fin since she didn't like it. But considering Tang Yun, she ordered bird's nest porridge and passed the menu to Yushu.
Yushu flipped through the menu, only finding shark fins and no shark meat. She was a little disappointed. "Yao Yao, I suggest Uncle Chu add shark meat!"
"......" Mengyao was speechless. Why would her daddy care so much? He even had to order the dishes for the hotel? After some thought, he asked, "Do you want to eat shark meat?"
"A little, but I don't know if it's as good as Shield Bro's." Yushu gulped.
Tang Yun felt a little uncomfortable. Did Lin Yi cook for them every day?
"Then ask the waiter if he can make it. What else do you want to eat?" Mengyao asked.
"Nope." Yushu shook her head.
"Alright then. Lin Yi, what about you?" Mengyao wasn't as calm as before in front of Lin Yi, but that was only in her heart. On the surface, her attitude towards Lin Yi was like ice, just like when Lin Yi first moved in.
But was it really the same? Perhaps only Mengyao herself could explain it clearly. Or perhaps, she didn't understand it herself.
"This is enough. I'm not picky when it comes to food." Lin Yi was telling the truth- ever since he was young, he'd always been the one to pick his food. Wherever he went, he'd have to get used to the local food. Deep in the mountains, however, there was no food at all. Lin Yi ate whatever he could get his hands on. He had no choice at all.
Mengyao nodded and called the waiter over. She passed the machine to the waiter and asked, "Do you have shark meat here?"
"Shark meat?" The waiter paused and said, "Please wait, I'll ask for you."
With that, the waiter picked up the walkie-talkie and asked. After getting a confirmation from the kitchen, he said, "Yes, miss. How would you like to cook it?"
"Can it be barbecued? I want to eat barbecued shark meat! "Yushu said.
"Alright, I'll ask for you." The waiter said and asked the kitchen in detail. "Yes, but this dish is specially made for you. The price might be a little higher. Is it acceptable? It's around six hundred yuan … "
"Sure." Mengyao nodded faintly. The price was nothing to her. She didn't have a concept of money. Although she wouldn't buy a whole house full of luxury goods like those gold-diggers, she didn't care about the price either.
The waiter ordered the barbecued shark meat through the walkie-talkie before bringing the drinks over. Mengyao ordered fruit juice, since they were both girls, and Lin Yi was driving. There was no need to drink to keep up appearances.
"Tang Yun, thank you for what you did today." Mengyao raised her glass and said to Tang Yun. She hesitated and mocked herself, "But it seems like we still can't be friends …"
Mengyao was really touched by Tang Yun's action of calling Lin Yi today. But even if she was touched, she wouldn't compromise for her own happiness! Tang Yun wanted to take Lin Yi away from the villa. She couldn't do that!
If Lin Yi left, where would she find another person who cared for her so much? Of course, the Miss never thought that she would like Lin Yi. Lin Yi was such a playboy. How could she like him?
"I understand." Tang Yun nodded. She didn't think that the conflict between them could be resolved by the Miss treating her to a meal. "I called Lin Yi because I didn't want to use this method to defeat my competitor!"
"Haha …" Mengyao smiled but didn't explain. Tang Yun didn't understand her dependence on Lin Yi.
"Oh, Yaoyao sis, let's not talk about this topic. It's so boring! "Yushu couldn't interrupt the conversation between the Miss and Tang Yun. She changed the topic.
"Haha, then let's not talk about it." Mengyao drank the juice in her glass and signaled to Tang Yun.
Tang Yun also picked up her glass and drank the juice. She accepted Mengyao's thanks. Actually, Tang Yun didn't think that Mengyao would thank her so seriously. The relationship between the two was too weird. She wasn't used to eating together like this.
