Chapter 18 Part1 (1/2)

The elliptical chandelier, covered in red paper, slowly turned above the table, and the s.h.i.+mmering light was also a faint red. The tablecloth was white and had a lace design. The girl gently played with it, twisting her fingers.

Jian Wei made a supreme effort to control herself; she hadn't yet made a hole in cloth.

From getting on the car to smoothly alighting outside the restaurant, it had been more than half an hour, but her heartrate still hadn't returned to normal. She could feel every beat in her chest, and her nerves were also stretched taut. Jian Wei felt she couldn't blame herself for her chaotic state, after all, right now she had been invited out for a meal with him… and he was Jiang Yi, ah!

Her male G.o.d took the initiative to invite her out, and it was not a large gathering but rather a private meal with just the two of them!

This thought allowed Jian Wei to summon her courage and sneakily observe the person sitting across from her. Looking directly at her he asked, ”Is there anything you want to eat?”

Jian Wei was startled and forcefully calmed herself down. ”I can eat anything, I'm not picky about food.”

”I already chose the restaurant, as for what we should eat, you can decide.”

When she was in the car, Jiang Yi asked her where she wanted to go to eat, but her head was so full of her swirling thoughts that she replied anywhere would be okay and let him decide everything.

Thinking to here, she hesitantly said, ”You really want to ask me to have a meal?”

Jiang Yi replied, ”Jian-xiaojie, we are already at the table.”

Jian Wei said in great embarra.s.sment, ”I just thought it was unexpected, I didn't think you would…”

”Even Lin Hao said that you helped me so much, I ought to take you out for a meal. Why, in your heart do I not know how to be grateful?”

He was wearing a smile that was not quite a smile, and Jian Wei didn't dare to say anything more, but closed her mouth like an obedient child.

Just then, a waitress holding a menu came over. The girl smiled sweetly. Jiang Yi's and Jian Wei's faces were hidden, but she didn't look twice at them. It was as if she was facing two regular customers.

”May I ask if you two are ready to place your orders?”

Jiang Wei remained calm, and this was not unexpected for Jian Wei. If he dared to bring her here it was certainly only after consideration. Apparently, this restaurant was safe. She was also going note it down so that she could come again later.

Jiang Yi gestured to the girl, and the waitress handed a menu over to Jian Wei. Jian Wei flipped through the pages, thinking that reading was the easiest way to make her calm down. Even just looking at the menu managed to calm her mood a little.

”Hey, one plate of steamed beef, without garlic, one pineapple shrimp salad, one serving of honey glazed chicken wings, ah, I want the boiled frogs, a little spicy but with no coriander…”

Jiang Yi listened, and finally thought that he'd heard wrongly. He looked at Jian Wei. Her head was bowed over the menu she was flipping through, her eyes focused as she looked seriously at it. The dishes she ordered were all very common. Although there were somewhat expensive and rare items on the menu, she directly skipped them. Jiang Yi thought that she couldn't be doing it in order to save her money…

The dishes she ordered, some he used to love, some he loved now, taking into consideration all of the foods he didn't like, everything had been mentioned in an interview…

She knew about it.
