"We haven't eaten yet. Let's go eat …" Jin Rui's words made Xingtian want to nod but he suddenly remembered that he only had one dollar. He said seriously, "I don't have money …"
“。。” Although Jin Rui was going to treat him, she felt weird hearing Xingtian's words. She sighed, "It's my treat."
"That's great. Let's go. Wait for me. Hmm … I'll treat you again as payment, "Xingtian nodded.
"What do you like to eat?" Jin Rui asked.
"Meat," Xingtian's words made Jin Rui speechless. Are you a kid?! "Then, let's go to that western restaurant over there. The steak there is famous. Just order whatever you want. Treat it as my reward for saving me today."
Xingtian followed Jin Rui to a private room in the western restaurant. The waiter brought the menu over.
"Let's order," Jin Rui smiled.
Xingtian sensed the items on the menu and tried his best to lower his shoulders to look at them with his eyes, "Special steak. Hmm … Special lamb chop. Hmm … three of each and a bottle of Erguotou …"
Xingtian quite liked the Erguotou that Liu Bei brewed for him.
"We don't have Erguotou …" the waiter said awkwardly.
"Then, can you buy it?" Xingtian turned around and looked at him. Jin Rui facepalmed. She did not know what to say. Just let him be.
"Sir, I understand. Is that all?" the waiter asked politely.
"No, it's just for me. My boss hasn't ordered anything yet …" Xingtian passed the menu to Jin Rui who was trying to hold back her laughter, "I'll just have a top-grade T-bone steak and a glass of Br Red."
The waiter kept the menu and left after looking at the two of them with a weird expression.
Under the soft light, Jin Rui looked at this expressionless man. She was getting more curious. His unfamiliarity with the world and his strange personality. "Where's your family? I didn't see you calling them back … "
Xingtian shook his head. Jin Rui understood. It was the same as the male lead in that she watched last night. He must have been an orphan who grew up in a mercenary group and was treated as a war machine. When the war ended, he must have been seriously injured and retired. He must have been out of tune with the world. She saw that Xingtian's tie was accidentally crooked, revealing a terrifying scar. She sighed again. "It's okay. Everything will pass.
Xing Tian was completely confused. What was the meaning of this?
The waiter reminded her that the dishes would be served soon. Jin Rui stood up slowly, "I need to go to the washroom …"
"Oh …"
Soon, the waiter pushed the cart in, served the dishes and wine, bowed and left.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Xing Tian pursed his lips. Better than nothing, I guess. He pulled up the shirt under his belt, and with a roll of his tongue, a piece of steak and a lamb chop appeared in his mouth. In just a few bites, he finished all of them. He held the sorghum liquor in his mouth and gulped it down like he was drinking mineral water. After that, he took a napkin and wiped the huge mouth of the belly rub before putting down the shirt and tucking it into his belt. "The taste is far from the manor's, but it's still not bad. I'll treat it as a snack to fill my stomach.
When Jin Rui returned to the private room, she saw that the table was empty except for her steak and the glass of wine. This … That's way too fast. "
That was a large portion of special steak and lamb chops, each of which weighed a catty!!! I just took off my pantyhose, peed, got up, washed my hands, spent less than 10 seconds to tidy up my makeup and came back quickly. That's it?! Most importantly, there was a bottle of sorghum liquor that weighed 2 catties. There was only a bottle left. Jin Rui looked around and even looked under the table, "Did you really finish it so quickly?"
"Of course."
Jin Rui smiled awkwardly and began to prepare the meal. However, she felt strange. The two of them were eating, and one was watching while the other was eating. The most important thing was that he was expressionless and just staring at her blankly. She felt uncomfortable all over. After eating a few mouthfuls and drinking some wine, she got up to pay the bill.
"Aren't you going to finish it? What a waste … " Xingtian was a little displeased. Wasting food was a disgrace in the tribe and would be despised for life. Food was the source of power. The reason why he fought with the Yellow Emperor was probably because he didn't eat when he went to the Central Celestial Court. He broke the taboo of hunting and in the end, his consciousness went into a trance and he took the opportunity to behead him. He was full after all. When he killed the prey in the Central Celestial Court, he heard that the Yellow Emperor went to a banquet.
"I don't have much of an appetite …" Jin Rui's words made Xing Tian nod. Indeed, although it's not good to waste food, I really can't eat anymore. Well, it can't be helped. When I was injured, I couldn't eat too much sometimes. Anyway, it was my mom who finished the rest.
Sighing, he opened his shirt and ate the steak. He then drank the red wine and walked to the counter, "You don't have to thank me. I finished it for you."
Jin Rui blushed. He … he … He ate the steak I ate and drank the red wine I drank. She didn't know how to reply but she replied softly, "Thank you …"
The two of them walked out of the restaurant. Jin Rui shivered as she felt the cold wind at the end of spring. She didn't wear much since the sun was out and she hugged herself as she walked out of the restaurant, "It's so cold."
Xing Tian turned his head, "It's not cold."
"…" Jin Rui facepalmed again, "Don't you know how to put on your coat for me?"
Xing Tian was shocked. So, the boss is testing me! He recalled the time when Flame Emperor tested me and challenged me in singing. I beat him up so badly that he punished me to open up a wasteland for half a year. He said that it was training. Immediately, he took off his coat and put it on her, "Boss, it's a little cold."
Jin Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Can you be any stiffer?! She chuckled.
Xing Tian thought to himself. Are all women so fragile now? My mother was wearing straw sandals and straw clothes in the snow, and she even picked grass for me to eat. Now that I think about it, even snakes that have turned into spirits are so lousy. Sigh, but people nowadays are much smarter. There are a lot of things that I don't understand at all. For example, that scratch-off ticket. The grand prize is a few billion, and it only costs 10 federal coins. How does it make money?
I can't figure it out. "The two of them strolled under the street lights after 10 pm. Jin Rui was wearing Xing Tian's suit jacket and her face was slightly red. She didn't know how to continue the conversation. She felt so shy that she felt like she was back in high school. But then again, I really haven't had a good rest since university. Being in a relationship, for the sake of my brand, for the sake of my job, and for the sake of setting up my company for the past few years. Every day, I would be so tired that I would fall asleep.
"This is it," Jin Rui said softly.
"Oh …" Xing Tian stopped walking.
Jin Rui pursed her lips and walked towards the stairs. Xing Tian stopped her, "Hmm. About that … You can return my coat to me … "
