Chapter 253: Classmates and teenagers are not cheap
A table of "Fish Leaping over the Dragon Gate" had almost finished eating, and all the fish bones hooked in the secret sweet sauce had been gnawed clean. Before the white tablecloth was scraped to the ground by Xu Yanyan and Xu Miaomiao, the waiter outside the door brought appetizers and desserts.
The wooden table was folded and moved out, and then a flowing cart slid into the box, and the dishes that had been prepared were presented to the table.
In fact, just by looking at the appetizers and desserts made by the Italian chef, we already knew that this meal would not be cheap. But when the dishes were actually served, everyone was a little surprised. After all, the free appetizer for this meal was 'Abalone and Osmanthus'
Longan Paste', although it's not particularly expensive in terms of price, the quantity can't stand up to the quantity - everyone in the entire private room has an appetizer in front of them, which is also paired with the cold dish of 'Yunnan Moringa Miao' and the 'Black Truffle Crisp'
Skin soup's soup order.
The price of a meal in a high-end restaurant is not a problem for most of the people here. After all, families who graduated from Shilan Middle School and can afford to go to a school that boasts as a 'private aristocratic middle school' are considered bourgeoisie to middle-class, but middle-class families are not.
It has to be said that if you treat twenty or thirty people to a banquet of this size, it's fine on a per-table basis. But if it's on a per-person basis, the price of the meal will be much higher...
It is worth mentioning that after dessert, the seats were reset when we gathered at the dinner table. Now from right to left are Zhao Menghua, Chen Wenwen, Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang, Lin Nian, Chu Zihang, and Liu Miaomiao. Everyone at the table was talking and talking.
Laughing, Lu Mingfei didn't say anything and just ate fiercely.
He had been to this restaurant before, and it was his uncle who brought him here. It was also a treat that time. He brought a large group of people with him, which was more than the number of tables today. He entered the restaurant and gave orders with a arrogant wave of his hand.
Chef, it’s the old rule, just serve me the food! I’ll pay for it today!
Sitting at the table with the look of a regular customer, he patted the mobile phone he had just exchanged for several thousand dollars on the table. He stroked his sleeves and revealed the high imitation entry-level worker. Beside him was his sharp-eyed friend.
The blowing started immediately, and before the whole table started to drink wine and even before they had a glass of wine, the uncle floated several meters high.
As a result, despite the so-called 'old rules', the dishes that came in at the back end were a slew of home-cooked dishes, including braised pork in jars, signature tofu, beef fillet with black pepper, and the rarest thing was a dish of braised abalone, but it was a pity that there were only five in one plate. Lu Ming
I didn’t catch the abalone unless my hands were short... In fact, I did catch it, but before I put it into the bowl, my uncle Hengpi snatched it away with a knife. Hengpi didn’t know table manners and had to learn to respect his teachers and seniors, so he took the abalone to the side respectfully.
In the bowl...
It's not like my uncle who mixed his face with water to make him fat. Today's meal is full of real dishes, and even the appetizers are abalone and the like. He is really sorry for not scraping the plate clean.
Friend's bleeding wallet.
The next dish is suckling pig risotto. There are two plates on the table. I am afraid that the students will not be full. The roasted golden and crispy suckling pig is cut open by the waiter with a knife, and the golden rice grains filled with oil and water are poured out. The smell is almost overwhelming.
The roof flew off. The two twins, Xu Yanyan and Xu Miaomiao, together took over the roast suckling pig in front of them. One gnawed on the butt and the other on the head. While eating, they gave a thumbs up to Lin Nian at the side table...
"They are all old classmates. Lin Nian got rich in the United States before us. If we eat one meal from him, we have to pay for the next meal ourselves." There was a talking boy at the dining table, pouring water into the glass.
Drinks rang loudly.
"It's a pity that they are not over 18 years old and cannot drink. Otherwise, I would have asked the store owner to prepare two bottles of white wine to go with the meal..."
"You bitch! What kind of white wine can Boss Lin treat you to? The most authentic purchase channels for this restaurant are wines from Romanee-Conti and the five famous Bordeaux wineries." A certain boy who kept his mouth shut once again scolded his classmates for their ignorance.
"Lin Nian has probably already made a name for himself in the United States. How old is he? I have said before that it is difficult for minors to find a way out in China. Going abroad at the age of 17 is just fine. Look, now
Isn't it just carp entering the water and fish leaping over the dragon's gate?" someone exclaimed in admiration.
"You still have enough brains. People with good grades have more brains than others. If someone else went to the United States, they would probably be able to wash dishes."
Lu Mingfei sneezed and almost spit out the bag of cookies he was chewing. He raised his head and looked around blankly. Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw him like this. Even Chen Wenwen on the side covered her mouth and let out a low laugh.
Voice.
Lin Nian listened to all the compliments and compliments. He neither agreed nor refuted. He just listened. It was not until the group of people started asking him to talk about college life in the United States that he had no choice but to speak.
.
"It's not bad... The atmosphere of the college is very loose, students are very free, and the school rules are very loose and there are no restrictions... At least there are no stupid rules that force students not to leave the school or go back to their dormitories."
"All foreign private universities are like this." Zhao Menghua finally answered, "My dad has also recently considered letting me take the TOEFL exam abroad, but it is to go to Leicester in the UK. If I want to go to St. John's, I will also
You have to take IELTS.”
"That's right, Lin Nian, did you take the TOEFL or IELTS test when you went to Kassel?" Liu Miaomiao, who was sitting on the left side of Chu Zihang, suddenly turned her head and asked.
"No, my English scores are quite average. I can only memorize by rote, and my spoken English is barely passable." Lin Nian shook his head.
"You're talking nonsense again. If you were ordinary, we would all be in 'Class 2'." Xu Yanyan put down his chopsticks and teased. The homophone was very effective in making a group of people burst into laughter.
"What department did you choose in university? Will it be easy to find a job after graduation?" Xu Miaomiao asked.
"What are you talking about? Lin Nian has become like this now, and he is still worried that he can't find a job after graduation?" Someone immediately waved his hand and said.
"It's good not to have a job. There is always someone willing to support him." Su Xiaoqiang suddenly spoke, and the dinner table fell silent. They were all shocked by the little goddess's domineering side. Many people had strange expressions and glanced at Lin
Nian was over there, but Lin Nian didn't show anything, everything was as usual.
"Ha...haha, she is indeed a little goddess. She is tough when she talks. I also want someone to support her..." Xu Miaomiao laughed awkwardly and did not dare to continue on this topic, for fear of backfiring and ruining this dinner party again.
It turned out to be the same as the hot pot before.
"To be honest, Lin Nian, how can I go to your university? I also want to study with you." Su Xiaoqiang turned to look at Lin Nian beside Chu Zihang, stretched out his hand and gave it a gentle hammer.
He touched his shoulder and jokingly said, "When the time comes when you really can't do well, I'll protect you."
"It's quite difficult. In fact, although college life is loosely disciplined, it's not really easy, because most of the time you have to run around outside of classes, and the school assigns a large number of outings for internships."
"Caifeng? Are you majoring in art?" A girl in the class who is in the ninth level of Chinese painting asked in a low voice, looking at Lin Nian with a sense of similarity in her eyes.
"No... no, if I have to say it, I only took a preparatory class for a period of time during the half year I went to the college. This year I officially entered the freshman year. Those internship interviews should be regarded as... the outsourcing engineering department?" Lin Nian was very difficult.
Give a precise definition of the work you are currently doing, but I heard that the execution department often takes over some dragon-related messes from all over the world. It can probably be called an outsourcing project?
"Hey, which engineering department is it specifically, chemistry or civil engineering? If you have connections and resources, you will be able to make a lot of money after graduation." Many people exclaimed.
"During this period, I have been to Chicago, Japan, and the Somali Sea and Indo-China Peninsula." Lin Nian said truthfully.
"Damn it, flying to so many places in half a year?"
"It's very tiring, and sometimes I have to get hurt." Lin Nian sighed seriously, thinking that his life during this period was indeed not easy.
"Where are you injured? Does the doctor say there will be problems in the future?" Su Xiaoqiang, who was even more nervous about his health than Lin Nian, was sitting next to him with his eyes filled with concern, so he just had to check his body.
"It's not bad, the most serious wound before was the waist injury." Lin Nian thought of the bullet from the 'Holy Judge' again, and there was still a faint phantom pain in his waist.
But as soon as he said the words, he realized that something was not right about the atmosphere at the dinner table... Not only most of the boys, but also the performance of Su Xiaoqiang next to him was strange, but he did not realize what he had said wrong.
"So...ahem, do we still have a chance to go to your university?" Chen Wenwen coughed and changed the subject... Even she understood. She could only say that Lin Nian was obsessed with the authorities.
"Kassel College only recruits people with potential... Don't get me wrong, although I know this sounds rude, but it is the college's original words." Lin Nian thought for a while and expressed his meaning tactfully.
"But it's also true..." Chen Wenwen nodded slightly and looked at him, "Lin Nian, you have always had potential... We can see it since you entered school."
The students at the table paused for a moment, and then nodded in agreement with Chen Wenwen. Although she was a little reluctant, she was right. At first, Lin Nian was tricked by Lu Mingfei into climbing over the wall and going out to surf the Internet all night.
I fell asleep and was whipped by the teacher to memorize the Chinese documents... Yes, when he memorized the Chinese documents, they knew that this kid was not an ordinary person.
Later, the Chinese teacher made a bet with Lin Nian, saying if you have such a good memory, can you memorize the Xinhua Dictionary? If you can memorize it, I will not care if you sleep in my class in the future... Then the outcome of the bet was decided before school ended that day.
I figured it out. I heard that the math teacher in the office didn’t believe it at that time and insisted on using his privilege of sleeping in class to bet on memorizing the last thousand digits of pi. In the end, the teacher group failed miserably.
If this doesn’t count as potential, what does it count?
Although there are many aspects to consider when measuring a person, if there is one aspect that is so outstanding that it is enough to be admired... Moreover, Lin Nian is excellent in more than one aspect.
It used to be said that if Lin Nian's family background were better, he would be second to Chu Zihang, but now it seems that Lin Nian, who spends a lot of money, has no chance to become Chu Zihang's second, because Chu Zihang is already his equal when sitting next to him
When they saw Chu Zihang, they all nervously called him "senior", but Lin Nian immediately became brothers with this legend, as if Chu Zihang was going to become Lin Nian's second best...
What kind of world?
Many people find it nonsense and disillusionment, but the facts are right in front of them.
