It didn't take much time, probably just walking through a few blocks, and they were near the supermarket where they worked. Tang Bing led Fangran to a stop at the door of a restaurant with a wooden board in English with floral patterns hanging on the door.
"Is this a good place? You don't have to be polite to me, schoolgirl. It doesn't matter if you choose a more expensive place."
Standing at the door and looking at this kind of store, I guessed that Tang Bing, who was very careful about money and various sensitive social issues, probably wouldn't let himself spend more money.
Fangran looked at her speechlessly and said, and then saw Tang Bing, who was about to open the door and go in, retorting with an unconvinced expression.
"What's wrong with being cheap? Isn't it okay to be cheap? Who told you, senior, that cheap food must not taste good! Let me tell you that the steaks, bacon and smoked fish sandwiches in this store are highly rated!"
"Okay, listen to you."
Looking at her appearance as a cost-effective fighter, a typical boy who goes shopping with his girlfriend and says, "Okay, okay, you are what you are talking about", Fangran sighed helplessly and followed her in.
There are wooden chairs and square dining tables covered with white tablecloths, elegant and regular chandeliers hanging down, and the guests are all talking and laughing quietly in their seats.
He is no longer the little boy who has never seen the world. For Fangran, who was in the island villa not long ago, this level can only be regarded as simple. However, when he walked into the store, he was quite surprised by the quite small and beautiful interior.
.
"I want this, this, this, this, and this and this, two servings of each. I want iced Coke to drink, or iced coffee if I don't have it. Anyway, I want it cold,"
After finding a place to sit down, Fangran took the menu and looked at the beautiful and exquisite dishes on it. He pointed quickly with his fingers and pushed it to Tang Bing. He leaned back and yawned.
"And junior sister, you can eat whatever you want. Okay, just tell him."
The waiter and Tang Bing both looked at him in shock.
"Senior, are you always so bold and bold in the way you order food?"
There are also delicious specialties. You have already ordered them. What else do you want me to order?
∑(°Д°?)Have you eaten so much?
Then half an hour later...
Except for a steak, there were other fried fish, puddings, sandwiches, etc. Tang Bing, who was already full just by eating a little of everything, stared dumbfoundedly at the large table full of 2 plates of various dishes.
Fangran empties,
It was no longer surprising to find that Fangran, who didn't look very strong, could actually eat so well.
Tang Bing always feels that his senior is still doing well...
"Senior, are you really here to treat me to dinner today?"
"Ahem...of course!"
Seeing Tang Bing's stunned expression and muttering, Fang Ran, who couldn't control himself after eating cheap bread and ham for a week, coughed with a slight blush, and answered seriously,
Then he picked up the iced coffee and changed the subject:
"Senior sister, do you only want to eat this much? Don't worry about my budget. If it's not enough, just order more."
"Senior, do you have a misunderstanding about the normal food intake of girls..."
Tang Bing, who really couldn't take a bite, looked at him with a complicated and speechless expression. He felt that he had discovered another side of Fangran. Then he glanced at the messy cups and plates on the table. Fangran didn't feel any pain at all for the price of nearly 40 pounds.
He looked a little surprised and suspicious.
"Also, hey...senior, are you actually a rich man?"
"No way, my pocket has always been cleaner than my face."
Although it’s just because I have [Chuang Pai] and have a child or cook to support me...
After all, it was a robbery...cough! The money I picked up from the bad guys was more than 300 yuan for one meal. It didn't hurt at all. Fangran rolled his eyes and said truthfully, and then he finished all this,
He relaxed and smiled lightly, blinked his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him who helped him when he was most confused.
"By the way, junior sister, are you full?"
"Well...I was actually full when you asked for the second steak..."
Hearing Tang Bing say this with slight shame, even though Fang Ran, who had always been as face-skinned as a city wall, still blushed in front of girls.
Speaking of which...I always feel like I won't get nervous in front of my schoolmates...
"Ahem, let's go then. I remember the check is...Excuse me?"
Pretending to cough to hide his embarrassment, his mind flashed back to his last experience of being dissuaded by physical external factors. Fangran greeted the waiter and planned to pay.
"Um...senior, let's still be AA. I feel embarrassed asking you to treat me to dinner after we've only known each other for a few days."
But then Tang Bing suddenly said seriously, making Fang Ran look at her in surprise, and then smiled lightly.
"As I said, this is my treat as a thank you."
And schoolgirl, do you know how much blood you will lose if you eat AA for this meal...
"No! I can't owe others such a big favor in terms of money! This meal must be AA! I am a very principled girl!"
Fang Ran was slightly taken aback by her righteous and resolute attitude. Knowing Tang Bing's financial situation, he was quite surprised. He thought to himself, 'I'll put the other half into her schoolbag later', and took out half of the money.
Pay the bill and then...
I saw Tang Bing take out a 50% OFF discount coupon.
Fang Ran: "..."
I always feel like someone has successfully pretended to have a pussy. Is it my illusion...
And why does this discount coupon look familiar?
"Pfft! Hahahaha..."
"Senior, why are you laughing? (Stare)."
"Haha, ah...it's okay, I just think...school girl, you are so interesting...hahaha..."
Fang Ran, who burst out laughing and was stared at silently by Tang Bing, couldn't help but slap the table while laughing, and finally wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and suddenly felt,
It's great to meet this school girl in London.
"I'm telling you...I've already told you that I'm treating you to a treat. Why don't you keep that half-price ticket for yourself and use it whenever you want?"
"I don't want to maximize my profits and help you, senior, save money..."
Fang Ran suddenly laughed and puffed up one cheek in displeasure. Tang Bing turned his head and said with melancholy and heartache:
"And how can I have so much money to spend on a place like this..."
"Well, I'm really impressed by you...Senior sister, you are really different from other girls who think that boys treat guests as a matter of course..."
Finally, he leaned on the table with a smile, glanced at her, then stood up, and heard her whispering behind him:
"For no reason...How can I owe you, senior, such a huge debt of gratitude...Senior, are you going back tonight?"
"Well, I'll go back tonight."
Fang Ran's chuckle was not unusual, and Tang Bing booed and sighed, saying that it would take a year before he could see him again:
"Then the next time we have the chance to meet again, it will be when I return from studying abroad...Senior, you will be a senior..."
He was reminded by her words, but Fangran knew that after this time, he would never meet this cheerful and lively school girl again.
"Yes, I will stay in London for the next year to study abroad. Come on, schoolgirl."
Although they only spent two hours together for a few days, Fangran felt unexpectedly very happy.
"correct,"
Before opening the restaurant door, Fangran stopped and slowly put on his hood, as if thinking of something, then turned to smile at her.
"Senior sister, although you may feel embarrassed to be treated by me, you actually don't know..."
After opening the door and walking out, Tang Bing was suddenly startled when looking at his figure at this moment.
"How much have you helped me?"
If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't know where I am now...
"So don't worry about it, it's just that I don't want to owe you any favors."
On the streets of London at night, countless pedestrians and vehicles pass by. The lights make the city shine in the darkness. The doors with wooden signs open and creak.
Walking out of the restaurant, Tang Bing watched Fang Ran slowly walk to a black Bentley on the side of the road. The person who had been waiting there opened the back door for him and finally smiled at her.
"Well, goodbye, schoolgirl."
At the end of the brief encounter, the figure in the red cartoon coat looked with some disbelief at the black car that disappeared into the traffic...
...
...
And the moment I got in the car,
Slowly taking off his hood, I seemed to hear the sound of the real world disappearing behind the car.
The black-haired young man slowly raised his calm eyes and looked forward, looking at the completely dark sky outside, then took a deep breath and whispered:
