Honesty in a rainy night
When Jiang Qian Fan had totally fa and said: “please sort out Mr Jiang’s clothes into the closet, and line the and I are going to have a look at the new restaurant that’s opened in Washi+ngton, don’t knoe’ll be back If you wish to tour the Whitehouse or so, feel free to do so”
Lin Ke Song tilted her head, and thought that even though Mayer’s intention was for her to look after Jiang Qian Fan, why did Iris’ attitude make her feel this profound?
And Jiang Qian Fan’s back constantly faced her
A straight spine, a meticulous suit, his held on to the cane, and walked towards the door
Lin Ke Song suddenly had an illusion, that Jiang Qian Fan’s back view made the division between both their worlds
Iris placed her hand on Jiang Qian Fan’s arm, the both of them left
The cold athtly relieved
She opened Jiang Qian Fan’s suitcase, and according to what Iris said, sorted his suits and coats into the bedroom closet
These suit were either black or navy blue, the designs too were very sie guy wearing this kind of outfit, it’d definitely be old-fashi+oned
But it was different for Jiang Qian Fan, he made black look rich and deep
After arranging the coats, Lin Ke Song made sure that she didn’t make a mistake in the order, she decided that since she had coton, she would properly have fun who cares if she were a country bumpkin tourist
Good thing that the night before, Lin Ke Song had strategized on the internet
She left the hotel, and because she hadn’t made any reservations beforehand, she couldn’t enter the Whitehouse, and could only take pictures outside the Whitehouse
Just as she finished taking a couple of photos with her phone, she realised that only her head was big, and the scenery behind wasn’t even captured, Lin Ke Song found a passer-by, and finally got two pictures After leaving the Whitehouse, Lin Ke Song went to the Congress One needed to have more affinity here than the Whitehouse
Tired fro, she had afternoon tea at a café by the road
the sa’s eyebrows crease
The waffle was too sweet, it was like eating a big ar Because there was no honey on the surface, after baking, the crust wasn’t crispy enough, and it wasn’t soft on the inside
As for the earl grey tea, it was even rance was totally not in balance, and the flavour of the tea leaves had too entleness like the previous earl grey tea
…… wait, was she being picky?
If it were before, would she even think about the whether the crust of the waffle iped with honey before baking? The quality of the tea leaves of earl grey milk tea is completely irrelevant!
Aiya! Finished finished! She has been by Jiang Qian Fan’s side for too long, and has contracted his “perfectionism syndrome”!
Will she ever be able to eat things happily in the future ah!
Unconsciously, the sky had gradually darkened
Lin Ke Song realised, it was most probably because it was about to rain
Looked at her watch, it was still early Lin Ke Song paid, used her hands to shelter her head, and ran to the mall opposite the café
Lin Ke Song shopped around in low spirits, the shop assistants were all every polite, but she had no intention to buy anything
It wasn’t because she found the n and size were totally unsuitable
She had a s Yi Ran’s words, cover the face, and no ht, you wouldn’t be able to tell it was a woman’s so the clothes and shoes here were more suited to Lin Xiao Xue, that kind of exquisitely fashi+onable girl
And at this ti Qian Fan and Iris sat opposite each other, the boulevard outside the here rain poured on was like a scene out of a movie
Jiang Qian Fan picked up a piece of asparagus, the action of sending it to his mouth had no extra modification, but it seemed low profiled and introverted, with its own kind of ht Further the chopsticks, was that of a rarely seen gentle demeanour
When he sed the food, the lines in his neck rose and fell, introducing people into reveries, a different kind of sexy
Iris watched hih: “really fortunate that your eyes can’t see”
She was different fro chopsticks, so she was using the fork and knife
“I never knew that this was a fortunate thing”
Jiang Qian Fan’s voice, was likedown from the mountains, but still at an icy temperature
“This way, those who are looking at you in fascination will not feel aard”
Jiang Qian Fan did not reply Iris, but slowly turned his head, lowering his eyelids slightly
After 10 seconds of silence, Iris laughed lightly: “the previous time when you met rain with me, you also had this expression Are you able to hear anything from the sounds of the rain?”
“Nothing” Jiang Qian Fan lowered his head again, and cut a small piece of striped bass, “What time is it?”
“430pm, why?”
“this rain will probably continue for a long time”
“So we are not in a hurry to leave, can slowly taste”
Jiang Qian Fan only had a bite from the dish in front of his, and he put his chopsticks down onto the white marble chopsticks holder
“What’s wrong? Is there sous soup?”
“in Chinese cuisine, it is one of the s Under normal circumstances, it is boiled in the soup base of lean meat, chicken and ham”
“is there so with this soup base? I think it’s very delicious”
“the ratio of the haetable that has a clear and light taste, too much ham, will spoil this kind of taste”
Iris showed a thinking expression, and had another mouth, then immediately nodded: “indeed it is”
At this tio back to the hotel”
“What’s wrong?”
“I wish to rest”
“Rest?” Iris frowned, “or is it because you’re worried about whether Lin Ke Song has really gone touring at the Whitehouse?”
“What does she touring the Whitehouse have to do withQian Fan’s voice was cold, and even his expression had no change
“Because it’s raining, you worry that she’ll get drenched Because this isn’t New York, you are worried that she’ll get lost Even if she didn’t go out and is quietly staying in the room, it’s al opposite you is her”
Iris sat at her original place, quietly looking at Jiang Qian Fan
“what I want is to return to the hotel, not to look for her” Jiang Qian Fan stopped his steps slightly, “Further other people’sother people’s moods is my expertise”
“What’s wrong? Can you hear the idolisation and ad has for you?”
“no I hear the dissatisfaction and disdain you have for Lin Ke Song You think she is so and has not the slightest sense for this art You think she totally does not deserve any of my efforts, and is impossible for her to stand out in this field And even more, you don’t think that I really treat her as a student to teach”
“isn’t that so?” Iris laughed lightly, “until nohat has she learned? I admit that she cut the salmon and steak very well, but so what? The days that she spends beside you, if it were any chef fro had improved by leaps and bounds”
“the salmon and steak skill you talk about, Pepper learned it for a week, Ke Song only used a day”
“Alright then, even if she really has talent, where do you have the confidence that she will be able to win the competition in three months?”
“I never said that I wanted her to win” Jiang Qian Fan’s voice was a calm as water
On the contrary, Iris as in front of hiitated
“Then what’s that point of bringing her to your side?”
“A person, ants to make a difference in an area, must first accept it, then love it This is the start for everything”
Iris was stunned
Slowly, her face showed an expression of disbelief: “So…… you really plan to accept her as your student?”
“She has the most perfect sense of taste that I’ve ever seen”
After saying so, Jiang Qian Fan tapped his cane gently, and walked towards the door
At theto the wind, and the sreen leaves blended into one body, the heaven and earth seemed to broaden up
When Jiang Qian Fan returned to the hotel roo was very quiet
He opened the closet, slowly stretched his hand, fingertips touching the clothing inside
Iris came to his side, had a look and said: “She didn’t place the clothes wrongly The order is as per your usual”
“Thank you” Jiang Qian Fan said so, then sat back onto the sofa
“do you need me to read you the news?” Iris asked
“No need See you tomorrow”
Iris gaped, and had actually wanted to say so, but in the end only smiled helplessly
At this tih seat at Starbucks, looking at the tips of feet in boredom
Dunno whether Jiang Qian Fan has already reached the hotel
He’s probably having dinner with Iris ba
Even if they return to the hotel, it’s definitely talking with Iris about the different types of ingredientpractices
She was only and outsider
Really don’t feel like returning ah!
And, she could feel the indifference Jiang Qian Fan has for her If Iris was acco Qian Fan, it’ll still be fine But if there was only Lin Ke Song and him left in the room, it’d really be too aard
Thinking about it, for the whole day today, he didn’t even say three sentences to her……
Just where did she provoke him?
God ah, even if it’s death, can’t die without knowing the cause ah!
Rain was still pouring, the shopping mall was about to close too
Lin Ke Song couldn’t help but go to the rab a cab, and return to the hotel
She thought, it’s so late, Jiang Qian Fan is probably already asleep ba
When she returned to the suite room, the whole room was in a state of pitch blackness
dluck!
Lin Ke Song did not switch on the light, afraid that a ping of any slight sound will disturb Jiang Qian Fan awake
When she tiptoed to the direction of her roo the lines of darkness and pierced into the depths of her brain
“You sure you don’t need to switch on the lights?”
