By the time they left, it was already 5: 30 pm. Xia Jinyuan and Ye Chien, who had not changed into their casual clothes, walked out together with the Commander-in-chief in their neat military uniforms. Their laughter was light, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
The restaurant was not in a crowded area, but in the depths of Hutong Alley near Huangcheng. They drove all the way to the entrance of a courtyard house.
This used to be the residence of a high-ranking official, but now it was a private restaurant where ordinary people could not book a table even if they wanted to.
There were two pairs of doors in front of Ruishi Town House, and there were already customers coming and going. In the twilight, it was obvious that they were all wealthy and respectable guests.
The private room was antique, and the interior design was very typical of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Even the big chairs were made of high-quality yellow pear wood.
There were small ornaments like jade bottles in the baguette. Although they were handicrafts, they were still expensive.
Xia Jinyuan carefully pulled out a chair for Ye Jian and took over Commander-in-chief Xia's coat. He didn't let the waiter help him hang it up himself.
"It's a private restaurant opened by an acquaintance. The chefs hired are all top chefs, and every one of them has their own specialty. We just came back from training and ordered a few light dishes. Next time, I'll bring you here to try the heavy dishes." Xia Jinyuan opened the menu. There was no greasy smell, and the fragrance of red sandalwood greeted him.
Ye Chien realized that the menu was made of red sandalwood and made of paper. It did not look like a menu, but more like a piece of art.
While waiting for the dishes to be served, the three of them chatted about some interesting things in life. They did not mention anything about the army, and they were very alert at all times.
When the dishes were served, Commander-in-Chief Xia would occasionally signal Xia Jinyuan to put food in Ye Chien's bowl. Occasionally, he would say humorously, "Young people should have the courage of young people."
He would also say, "When we were young, we were young, but when we were old, those were just memories. Little Ye, sometimes you should ask him to do more work. You should train him first."
Every time Commander-in-Chief Xia said something like this, Ye Chien humbly listened to his advice.
Xia Jinyuan said, "Your experience is purely misleading. Teach us less and we will figure it out ourselves." Or perhaps, "You're trying to take revenge, aren't you? Why do you keep remembering what I did to you when I was young and ignorant? As a person, you have to look forward!"
Whenever the father and son met, Ye Chien would choose to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. He would just watch with a smile and not say anything.
When Commander-in-Chief Xia saw that Ye Chien had stopped talking, he immediately turned his head and said, "Xiao Ye, do you know why I'm thinking about you?"
He really didn't know.
Ye Chien poured a cup of hot tea and asked with a gentle smile, "I really don't know." He did not expect the commander-in-chief to be so calm in private. She did not feel nervous at all.
"Don't you remember? The old man couldn't win against the young man. I'll never forget this for the rest of my life." Commander-in-Chief Xia laughed heartily. "This should be considered a dark history. He caused trouble outside, and I wanted to throw him directly into the juvenile detention center to discipline him. He was very capable, so he proposed to make a bet with me."
Ye Chien accidentally heard a part of Commander-in-Chief Xia's dark history. This was the dark history of the top leader of the army, and she heard it without any preparation.
The situation was similar to the last time when Xia Jinyuan mentioned Madam Xiao. She heard the whole story without any preparation.
"I had ten bullets, and he had ten bullets too. We made a bet that whoever could shoot perfectly would lose. The loser would have to run three kilometers around the field. At that time, I thought that there was no way I could lose. Even if I couldn't shoot perfectly, I still could. "
