When Lin Xiaoning heard her second uncle mention her father, she couldn't help but sigh. Growing up, her father had been extremely strict with her, and the path she took was all arranged by her father. If she suddenly mentioned entering the business world, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate.
Will agree.
"Xiao Ning, you can't be anxious about many things. Only by accumulation can you make progress. Only when rivers gather together can they become a vast ocean. You also know the situation at our home..."
Before Lin Mohan finished speaking, he glanced at the driver in front of him and immediately stopped talking, "Don't worry, I'm not your old-fashioned dad. If the time comes and you are capable enough, I will help you."
.”
"Thank you, uncle."
Lin Xiaoning forced a smile and nodded, but there was not much firmness in her eyes.
She had never been involved in the Lin family's affairs since she was a child. Whether it was the officialdom that her second uncle focused on or the business that her father controlled, she knew very little about anything, and sometimes she even felt like an untrusted outsider.
There are some things that Lin Xiaoning can't complain about. The most important thing is that she has been carefree for so many years, and has no worries about food and clothing. This has also made her gradually lose the restlessness and ambition of her youthful and restless age.
Sometimes I think that it might be a blessing to find a man who loves each other and live a peaceful and simple life in the future.
However, as my best friend Wang Yuying entered the business world, the company's business was booming in Qingshu County, with food factories, technology companies, electrical appliance supermarkets, and even real estate companies gradually growing in size.
At the same age and with the same network of contacts, sometimes she wonders, she has a deeper background than Wang Yuying, so why is she still doing nothing?
In just one year, she has experienced a series of different people and things. Wang Yuying has already taken a step forward on the road of life, but she is still treading water. She doesn't know whether the gap between them will become wider and wider.
The Audi car was running steadily, and just like Lin Xiaoning's mood at the moment, it was steady with forward momentum, and her heart was filled with tenacity that refused to admit defeat. Wang Yuying could succeed by relying on her personal abilities, why couldn't she?
I'll talk to Wang Yuying and Shen Dapeng in the future, maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation.
Looking at the bald trees passing by outside the car window, Lin Xiaoning breathed out the fragrance. She didn't know what the relationship between Shen Dapeng and Wang Xueying was. Could it be that Shen Dapeng gave up on Cao Mengyuan and chose someone more suitable?
Compared to Lin Xiaoning's curiosity and concern, Shen Dapeng didn't care about these things. Shen Dapeng and Wang Xueying sat opposite each other at the window closest to the inside of the Little Snowman Western Restaurant.
The Western food starter was an appetizing fruit salad, and both of them ordered the appetizing red soup, the side dishes of garlic prawns and grilled salmon, and the main dishes of black pepper steak, Wellington steak, and tomato pasta.
Shen Dapeng knew that he had a large appetite and was afraid that he would not be full, so he added an extra piece of pan-fried steak and bread slices. With that, he probably still had to eat half full.
After all, Western food is served too slowly and too carefully. A meal that can be eaten in seven or eight minutes has to be served in half an hour or forty minutes, as if this would make it appear grand.
"Oh, it doesn't even have a salty taste. I really don't know whether to enjoy Western food or suffer from it."
Shen Dapeng had already finished the fruit salad, which felt like a child's meal, and drank most of the red soup. However, the side dishes and main dishes had not yet been delivered. If he kept waiting, he would be full from the soup.
"What are you drinking? I'm treating you today, so don't be polite to me!"
Wang Xueying handed the menu to Shen Dapeng again and pointed to the bottle of dry red on it. She didn't know much about wine, so she thought the price of a few hundred yuan was acceptable.
"What kind of wine should you drink on a cold day? Besides, you only have the capacity to drink. If you are really rich, you can add more steaks later. I'm afraid I won't be full. By the way, why do you want to come to eat Western food?"
Shen Dapeng glanced at the guests at the tables next to him. They were all young people in their teens and twenties, and they seemed to be students from nearby universities.
Looking at the decoration design of Little Snowman Western Restaurant, it is obviously more in line with the habits of young people. The dim lights, beautiful country music, and handsome waiters make it a good place to find love.
"Candlelight dinner, isn't it romantic?"
Wang Xueying pointed to the candlestick placed on the table and leaned towards Shen Dapeng.
"Romantic? Haha! A few sticks of white wax paired with music, and if I could play "Er Quan Ying Yue" by Blind A Bing again, if I hadn't seen the menu, I would have thought I was attending a funeral again. How romantic would it be?"
"Bah, bah, bah... Where did the funeral come from? It's so late at night, can you have a good chat?"
Wang Xueying exhaled cutely and shook her head, "What kind of wine are you drinking? Red wine or white wine?"
"I drink beer!"
Shen Dapeng's speaking voice was not loud, but it was enough to sound a bit abrupt amid the melodious music, and people around him cast strange looks.
Although the customers next to me are all young students, as long as they can eat in a Western restaurant, they know the custom of pairing wine with Western food. Seafood is paired with white wine, and pork, beef, and chicken are paired with red wine.
As for beer... it's not impossible, but few people will drink it. After all, most people think that Western food is a high-end thing, and of course it should be paired with higher-end foreign wine.
"What, drinking beer embarrasses you?"
Shen Dapeng raised his eyebrows with a wicked smile. He did it on purpose, thinking that if Wang Xueying looked ugly, she would not have to drink. Otherwise, with Wang Xueying's drinking capacity, she would not be able to drink until she was unconscious in the end.
"Just drink, waiter, a dozen beers to quench your thirst."
As soon as Wang Xueying finished speaking, a customer at the table next to her burst out laughing, and the white soup in her mouth vomited all over the girl opposite her.
Before the girl had time to complain, Wang Xueying complained, "You deserve it, you are a joker."
"Hey, you girl..."
The girl wanted to get up and argue, but was held back by the boy opposite, "Honey, don't argue with that kind of tasteless person, you will lose your standing! Your clothes are stained, I will buy you a new one tomorrow.
Don’t be angry!!”
"snort!"
The girl glared at Wang Xueying reluctantly, then turned around and continued to kiss each other, eh eh eh eh eh eh.
Shen Dapeng looked funny, but Wang Xueying sneakily flicked me on the head, "I blame you for insisting on drinking beer, so I am laughed at, right? I really owe you, I am always dragged down by you."
"You insist on inviting me to dinner, why am I dragging you down..."
Shen Dapeng wanted to say something else, but at this moment the waiter brought the side dish. The fragrant smell made people sniff it, "Well, it tastes pretty good. I guess I'm really hungry."
"Eat quickly if you're hungry! Have you decided where to take me after dinner? I don't want to and I'm not in a hurry. I'll think about it slowly..."
Wang Xueying's face turned slightly red, and she lightly pursed her lipsticked lips.
