3229. Chapter 3229 Respect is worse than obedience
Zhuoran looked tolerant, "It doesn't matter, I know something must be wrong with you."
Chu Xiaochen felt more and more embarrassed that the other party was so easy to talk to. She bit her lip, grabbed her bag and stood up, "Let's go now. Do you have time?"
Zhuo Ran was slightly surprised, and then smiled again, "Xiao Chen, actually we are all friends, you are welcome, you have to take care of the patients..."
Chu Xiaochen laughed childishly, "I'm not being polite, actually... I haven't eaten Beijing food in a long time. I'm going to take advantage of you this time. There is an authentic old Beijing restaurant not far from here."
"In this case..." Zhuo Ran also stood up, "I'd rather be respectful than obey your orders."
The two of them left the cafe and walked to the restaurant instead of taking a car.
On the road, pedestrians were rushing around, but no one recognized Zhuo Ran who passed by them.
After entering the restaurant, Chu Xiaochen immediately asked for a private room, took Zhuo Ran in, and then ordered a few special dishes.
When the waiter went to place the dishes, Chu Xiaochen pursed her lips and finally said directly, "Teacher Zhuo, I hope you will keep this matter a secret for me, okay?"
Knowing that she was referring to him pretending to be Lin Xiangwan, Zhuo Ran nodded lightly, "Okay."
The other party answered so simply that Chu Xiaochen couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Seemingly reading her thoughts, Zhuoran took a sip of tea and said, "I know you have your reasons, and you don't really want to use this identity to swindle...Actually, what I'm worried about is, are you
Do you want to keep acting like this?"
Chu Xiaochen put the cup he held back, "Of course not, I just helped her finish the movie."
"You seem a little nervous, but actually I don't mean anything else." Zhuo Ran's tone was as gentle as an old friend, "This world is too complicated, I'm just worried that you can't handle it."
Chu Xiaochen twitched the corners of her lips and said, "There is no other way. Since we have come to this step, we can only persevere to the end."
The waiter served the food, and Zhuo Ran did not continue the topic, "Can I call your name?"
"Of course." Chu Xiaochen turned the table, "Teacher Zhuo, this is Guotai Tofu, which is also an authentic old Beijing dish. Would you like to try it?"
"Zhuoran!" Zhuoran corrected.
Chu Xiaochen smiled and said, "I'm not used to calling you by your name."
Zhuoran picked up his chopsticks and said, "So, I can only call you Miss Chu?"
Chu Xiaochen pursed her lips slightly, "Okay, Zhuoran."
Lifting the corners of his lips, Zhuoran raised his hand to pick up a chopstick of the dish, brought it to his mouth, tasted it, and immediately exclaimed in admiration, "It's been a long time since I've eaten food that feels like this. It's like eating food cooked by my mother."
.”
"Aren't you... from Hong Kong?" Chu Xiaochen asked curiously.
"My father is from Hong Kong and my mother is from Beijing. I was born in Hong Kong. Although I have been to many places, I still love my mother's home-cooked meals the most."
"No wonder you speak Mandarin so well."
"Is that a compliment?"
Chu Xiaochen laughed, "Of course."
"What about you, Xiaochen?"
Chu Xiaochen pointed to herself in confusion, "Me?!"
"Yes, I want to know something about you."
"Me?!" Chu Xiaochen took a breath, but didn't know where to start, "I don't know what to say."
