Chapter 20 (4)
……Tong Yao got her answer after the well dressed waiter handed her the menu. She glanced over the menu and the answer was: Yes, they can pay for the rent.
1188¥ for a plate of beef?
568¥ per pound of clam, were they from a star? !
80¥ a plate of winter melon, what was going on? ! ! !
…………………………..Could it be that they were priced in Japanese Yen?
Tong Yao quickly closed the menu. She pretended that she had seen it before and said lightly, “I’m not hungry.”
However, no one was paying attention to her. Lu Sicheng and others seemed to come here often. They ordered a lot of food: meat, seafood, and all kinds of vegetables. Tong Yao roughly calculated the prices and arrived at a frightening figure– —
She had an annual salary of 800,000 RMB, 800,000! Yet, it could only pay for 20 or 30 dinners here.
She was still distracted when the food was brought to the table. She glanced at the different dishes in front of her, they were all very fresh, top quality……But in Tong Yao’s eyes, they were dishes of RMB being dropped into the hot pot– —
Little Fatty and others were happily eating the various food, they definitely had been here before.
Tong Yao quietly ate the greens, 10 RMB for a head of green. One dish of the green here could buy the whole vegetable stand in the market……While Tong Yao was eating her vegetables, the man sitting across from her suddenly stood up and pushed some cooked meat in the front of Tong Yao, “Shorty, eat some meat.”
Tong Yao, with greens still in her mouth, raised her head in confusion.
Lu Sicheng’s sudden act made the others pause in their conversation. They all stared in confusion at Tong Yao, then Lu Sicheng– –No one could figure out when these two, who constantly bickered, developed such a good friendship……
Tong Yao, in the meantime, stared at the beef in front her which costed four figures as if they has been seasoned with gold– —
The atmosphere became tense.
“Uhm, well, I was about to say it on the van.” Xiao Rui cleared his throat and said, “Cheng Ge, do you really think you’re raising a daughter? You care so much about her; afraid that she fell off the bed; afraid she’ll lose confidence if she loses a skirmish; afraid that she’ll go hungry– –”
As Xiao Rui was mumbling, Tong Yao quickly sucked the greens into her mouth. Thanks to the elegant atmosphere of the hot pot place, she could hide her red ears, which were as red as the cooked shrimp in the pot, from the others in the dim light……
There was a short silence.
“She entertained me for a whole night.” Lu Sicheng spoke without any facial expression, “What’s wrong with letting her eat more?”
Everyone: “……”
Tong Yao: “………………..”
Tong Yao blankly looked at Lu Sicheng.
Then she felt like she had been awoken by thunder– —
Isn’t that right?
It’s true? !
She had been tortured the whole night……He was feeding her to make up for it? !
Tong Yao instantly put down her chopsticks and looked around trying to flag down a waiter– —
She wants the menu! She wants the lobster! She wants the edible nest! If they have shark fins, she wants two orders, one to rinse her mouth, one to eat! Expensive? Ha! Cheng Ge has money, Cheng Ge can pay for them! !
