The Western restaurant next to the Medicinal Cuisine Hotel was really not low-class. Xu Yun thought, Guoguo, that stingy little girl, was willing to spend so much money. She must have made a big decision, right? After all, it was no secret that Guoguo loved money.
"Good evening, both of you. Do you have a reservation?" When the waitress opened the door for them, she asked politely in a professional manner.
Xu Yun nodded and gestured at the height of his waist. "Yes, a little girl about this height reserved it for us. I'm from the Medicinal Cuisine Hotel next door."
"Oh oh oh!" The waitress said "oh" three times in a row and said with a surprised expression, "It's Mr. Xu and Ms. Ruan, right? Aiya, I didn't expect both of you to be so young. Hehe, your daughter is really cute! She is also very sensible. I heard that today is your wedding anniversary, so your daughter came to book the second floor for you and reserved a candlelight dinner. Hehe, Ms. Ruan, you are really happy! You have such a good husband and daughter. "
Ruan Qingshuang now had a big headache. How did the two of them get married on their anniversary? How did Xu Yun become her husband … Just thinking about it, her face felt a little hot. What was Guoguo doing? She and Xu Yun had known each other for more than three months … Yes, three months and a few days … After careful calculation, Ruan Qingshuang suddenly realized.
From the day Xu Yun saved her until today, it was a full one hundred days. This was the one hundred day anniversary of their acquaintance!
The two adults were not as careful as a little girl. Just as Ruan Qingshuang figured out today's date, Xu Yun seemed to understand too. What a good Feng Guoguo. No wonder she asked for one hundred yuan at that time. She said that she wanted to help him get his mother's favor. In fact, she was hinting that she would help him on the one hundred day.
As the waitress led the two of them upstairs, she smiled and said, "You two are so young, and your children are already so big. Which anniversary is it?"
"This is …" Ruan Qingshuang really couldn't describe it. The 100th day of Memorial Day? Then how could they explain having such a big child? He was having a headache.
Xu Yun coughed lightly and tried to change the topic. "Well, the two of us were betrothed before we were born, so … it should be considered our silver wedding anniversary, right? Hahaha … "
"Wow, 25 years of marriage is considered a silver wedding. I didn't expect the two of you to still be so loving even though you were betrothed before you were born. I'm so envious." The waitress was really envious. Why hadn't she been betrothed to such a gentle, rich, and handsome man who loved her? Obviously, Xu Yun, who was the owner of the Medicinal Cuisine Hotel, was definitely tall, rich, and handsome in the eyes of ordinary people.
The three of them went to the second floor. Guoguo really did reserve the entire floor. There was only a long table under the crystal lamp in the center of the hall. The atmosphere was so romantic that Ruan Qingshuang couldn't believe her eyes.
Xu Yun saw that Ruan Qingshuang's face actually revealed a little girl's expectation. He turned to the waitress and said, "I'm sorry, please give us some privacy. You can serve the dishes. Also, we don't need anyone to serve us, and we don't need any pianos or violins to play, so I hope no one will disturb us. "
The waitress understood Xu Yun's meaning. She immediately stopped talking and quickly left the second floor.
Seeing that there was finally no one, Ruan Qingshuang dared to speak. Her tone didn't have any hint of blame. "Guoguo, this brat, why did she make such a big scene? How much money did she waste?"
Xu Yun shook his head. "I'm not generous enough to reserve the entire restaurant for dinner, so I really don't know. My life is worth it to have such a daughter who is willing to spend money on me.
This meal was not like the small western restaurant where two steaks and a portion of spaghetti were enough to fill one's stomach. Serious French cuisine was very particular about the dishes and wine. The appetizers were pre-meal bread and French baked snails, followed by Cotillard white wine, black fungus cream soup, and assorted salad. Then, there was 1982 Lafite red wine. The hot appetizer was French red wine fried foie gras, followed by the main dish of fruit-wood steak, accompanied by the top German Pinot Noir red wine. Finally, there was Burgundy Gaudengol white wine and chocolate mousse.
Ruan Qingshuang stared at each other during the meal. Wasn't this too complicated?
"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but this is my first time eating French food." Ruan Qingshuang thought she was dreaming until the candlelight dinner was about to end. "To be honest, I really don't want to eat French food anymore. I always feel that there are so many rules when eating. It's quite awkward."
Xu Yun nodded and agreed. "I still like to eat our restaurant's medicinal hot pot. That fat beef and lamb is always delicious when you put it in the pot!"
Ruan Qingshuang pursed her lips and smiled. "We can't say that to Guoguo. She's such a careful child. We can't say such things to spoil her mood."
"Don't worry. She'll be in high spirits tonight. The person who can spoil Guoguo's mood hasn't been born yet." Xu Yun shrugged and smiled bitterly. "I think she'll pester me when we get back. Just thinking about it gives me a headache."
Ruan Qingshuang didn't need to think to know why Xu Yun was worried. After all, his daughter was a little demon.
Xu Yun drank the dry white wine in his glass and said lightly, "I didn't expect time to pass so quickly. We've known each other for a hundred days. If Guoguo hadn't thought about it, we would've both forgotten about it. "
"I can't believe that a six or seven-year-old Guoguo could be so careful." Ruan Qingshuang sighed. "A hundred days. Haha. Xu Yun, I don't even dare to think about it now. If Guoguo and I hadn't met you that day, I'm afraid I would've been forced out of Hedong City by Lv Bao. To be honest, I really had the urge to leave Hedong City that day. At that time, I really had no other choice."
"It's all in the past. Don't think too much about it." Xu Yun smiled. He knew that Ruan Qingshuang couldn't hold her liquor. Although they drank wine for dinner, it still had a certain degree of alcohol. Maybe it was because the alcohol affected Ruan Qingshuang that she felt so much.
Ruan Qingshuang nodded. "Yes, it's all in the past … I'm very, very grateful to God for allowing you to appear in my life. I'm very, very grateful to God. Xu Yun, you've changed everything for me. I really don't know how to thank you."
Xu Yun touched his chin and thought for a while. He replied, "You've already thanked me. You brought Guoguo home when she was at her loneliest and most helpless. You treated her like your own daughter. That's why I have a goddaughter who changed my life so much. I should be the one thanking you. I should be thanking you for allowing me to meet you. If I hadn't met you, I'm afraid I would still be in the … Forget it. Let's not talk about it. It's all in the past. "
"Xu Yun, the more you talk about it, the more I feel like I owe you." Ruan Qingshuang's eyes seemed to be burning with tears. "You know, after I ran away from home, I've always wanted to change my life with my own ability. I wanted my medicinal cuisine to succeed, but I couldn't do it alone. There are so many difficulties in reality. Everything changed after you appeared. I should be thanking you."
"Then let's thank each other. Hahaha." Xu Yun couldn't help but laugh. He really didn't understand. The two people who came to have a candlelight dinner were actually thanking each other after dinner. It was really funny.
Ruan Qingshuang lowered her head in embarrassment. She seemed to have realized that she had lost her composure, but she couldn't control herself now. She just wanted to say what was in her heart. "Xu Yun, you know, because I have nothing to repay you with, I really thought that I might as well just give myself to you … Although I'm a woman who ran away from my marriage, I didn't let any man touch my body. Maybe the only thing I can repay you with is … So I can't think of a better way to repay you."
Xu Yun was stunned. He really didn't know how to respond to this. What did she mean? Debt of gratitude? Repay with flesh? It wasn't that this topic wasn't suitable for children. It wasn't that he hadn't seen it before, but he really didn't expect that with Ruan Qingshuang's personality, she would be so straightforward.
"Xu Yun, you're really different from other men." Ruan Qingshuang was indeed so straightforward because of the alcohol. "When you said that you wanted to come to the restaurant to be a chef, I wondered if you were like other men and wanted my body. At that time, I really thought so, but I still agreed to let you work in the restaurant because I was prepared that day. Even if you wanted to do anything to me that day, I wouldn't resist. Because not only did you give me a chance to persevere, you also gave Guoguo a chance. It doesn't matter how I endure it, but I can't bear to let a child suffer with me. "
Xu Yun was really quite guilty. He was also a serious and hot-blooded young man. If he said that he wasn't moved by Ruan Qingshuang's beauty at that time, that would be a lie. Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped her to the end so straightforwardly.
"But you never did anything inappropriate to me. Because of me, you offended so many people …" Ruan Qingshuang became more and more moved as she spoke. "But you never had the intention to give up on us. At that time, I was afraid that one day I would wake up and find that you weren't there. After you moved in with me, I really felt very safe … At that time, at that time, I … I felt towards you … Forget it, I don't even know what I'm saying, phew …"
Ruan Qingshuang wanted to say that she was moved by him at that time, but she eventually swallowed the words "moved" into her stomach. There were some words that she didn't know how to say, because she was too kind. At this time, she actually thought of her sisters.
