She Is From The Countryside

Did Not Look Like a New Customer In a Restaurant

After driving for about 800 meters, they finally found the lane to turn from. When they turned around, the car that was originally parked in front of the bookstore had already left.

After driving past the bookstore, the person in the backseat did not speak for a while.

The driver could not help but ask, “Madam, did you see an acquaintance just now?” f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

“Maybe I saw it incorrectly.”

“Then, now...”

“Let’s go back to the office.”

Meanwhile, Shi Yan did not know that someone had seen her. After getting into the car, the driver asked her, “Miss Shi, it’s time to eat. Have you eaten?”

Shi Yan took out her phone and looked. It was almost 12:30 pm.

“Not yet. I was only focused on shopping. What about you, Master Liu? Have you eaten?”

“Yes, I’ve eaten. I’ll be waiting for you. Miss Shi, do you want to find a restaurant or go back to eat? If you want to go back to eat, I’ll call the kitchen and have them prepare it now so that you can eat it by the time you get back.”

“Let’s find a restaurant nearby. I want to walk around for a while.”

Wanting to walk around for a while was just an excuse. It would be too troublesome to ask the Jiang family’s kitchen to prepare food after mealtime.

“Then I’ll look for a restaurant. Miss Shi, do you have anything you want to eat, or something you usually avoid?”

“No, I’m fine with anything.”

After a while, the car stopped in front of a restaurant. Shi Yan asked the driver if he wanted to eat again. He said it was not necessary, so Shi Yan entered the restaurant alone.

It was a very ordinary restaurant, not considered special on this street filled with restaurants. Master Liu must have considered that Shi Yan came from the countryside. He was afraid that she would not be used to going to a restaurant that was too high-end, so he especially chose this restaurant.

The restaurant was ordinary, but there were many customers. It was clear that it was a restaurant that was very popular with their customers.

Master Liu was actually a little worried that Shi Yan did not have the money to eat in the restaurant. He thought about how she had bought so many things just now. However, she should still have enough money for a meal, so he did not ask further.

Otherwise, if he had asked, it might have hurt the little girl’s self-esteem.

Shi Yan walked into the restaurant and went up to the second floor. She chose a seat by the window and sat down.

After entering the restaurant, she did look around curiously, nor did she seem confused during her first time in this kind of restaurant.

She went straight up to the second floor.

The waitress brought the menu, and she thanked her with a smile as she took it.

She ordered two dishes and a soup.

They were all specialty dishes of the restaurant.

They weren’t the most expensive, but they were some of the more pricier dishes on the menu.

“Wait a moment, the dishes will be served soon.”

The waitress took the menu and left. After taking a few steps, she couldn’t help but turn her head to look at the girl sitting by the window.

She was clearly dressed very simply, so why did she feel that this girl’s temperament was special? Just by sitting there, she looked like a painting.

Could this be the advantage of having good looks?

However, she had worked in the shop for so long and had seen many beautiful girls. Why did she feel that this girl was so eye-catching?

Shi Yan did not know what the waitress was thinking. While waiting for the dishes, she picked up the glass of lemonade that the waitress had just poured and took a sip.

It was rare for her to take out her phone and open it. She only took a glance at the screen before the screen turned black and she placed it on the table.

With one hand supporting her chin and the other holding the glass of water, she did not drink the lemonade in the glass. Instead, she held the glass with one hand and looked out of the window at the bustling street.

It had been almost ten years since she had come into contact with such a bustling street market.

Life in the countryside was simple and quiet. The only city that could be considered prosperous was the county where she went to school. However, she usually stayed in school and would occasionally go back to her small farmhouse during the holidays. Even though she went to the county for three years, for middle school and high school, she did not walk around the area properly.

Although she said that she missed the prosperity of the city, she actually did not. She did not have a lively personality, but she felt that people would get tired of living such a peaceful and simple life for a long time.

Soon, the waitress served the dishes.

The waitress was not old, so she was a very talkative person. When she served the dishes to Shi Yan, she smiled and said, “You went straight to the second floor, without asking a customer. It’s not your first time here, right?”

In fact, the waitress only asked this because she thought that if this eye-catching girl in front of her had really been to the restaurant, it would have been impossible for her not to remember.

However, this girl did not look like a stranger.

After she entered the restaurant, she went straight to the second floor, without even asking whether the second floor belonged to their restaurant. After she received the menu, she casually flipped through to the two dishes and one soup that she had ordered. They were all the signature dishes of the restaurant.

She did not even ask what the signature dishes of the restaurant were.

“Indeed, it’s not my first time here. I came here once before with someone a long time ago.”

“A long time ago? I’ve been working in the restaurant for almost five years, but I’ve never seen you before.” As the waitress said this, she smiled in embarrassment. “You might not believe me when I say this, but I feel that if you were a customer and I saw you in the restaurant, no matter how long it had been, I probably wouldn’t have forgotten you.”

Seeing Shi Yan look over with a smile, the waitress added, “You are too beautiful.”

Actually, what the waitress had wanted to say was, “You have a very special temperament that makes it difficult to forget just by looking at you.”

After thinking for a while, she felt that it was inappropriate, so she changed her words.

“Thank you,” Shi Yan smiled slightly. She continued, “The last time I came to your restaurant was ten years ago.”

“No wonder! I told you I hadn’t seen you before. The dishes are all here. I wish you a happy meal.”

“Thank you.”

At the same time, in a private room on the second floor of the restaurant, another conversion was taking place.

“Su Mu, you’re the young master of the Su family. Why is it that every time you treat me to a meal, it’s always at this restaurant? Is it really okay to be so stingy?”

The person called Su Mu was in a suit and tie. He took off his suit and placed it on a chair before pulling the chair out and sitting down. It was a very simple action, but exceptionally elegant.

He looked at the person who spoke and said calmly, “I didn’t say that I wanted to treat you to a meal.”

“Su Mu, it’s meaningless if you say that. We grew up in the same pair of pants. You can’t even bear to treat me to a meal that costs more than 200 yuan?”

As the man spoke, Gu Zi pulled out a chair and sat down.

“Speaking of which, Su Mu, you don’t come to this restaurant often because you like its dishes, right? No matter how delicious the dishes are, you’ll get tired of them after eating them too many times. Moreover, the dishes in this restaurant are pretty average. Be honest, is there a story between you and this restaurant that I don’t know about? Have you ever come here with someone special?”

The man gave a sly smile, and Su Mu gave him a faint look.

“Alright, I’ll shut up. But Su Mu, judging from your reaction, I’m right, aren’t I? Did you really come here with someone special? Who? Do I know them? We grew up together, so I should know everyone you know, but I can’t think of anyone like that!”

“Han Yu, if you still want to eat, be quiet.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll be quiet.”

Han Yu crossed his legs and looked around the ordinary-looking private room, saying in confusion, “Su Mu, you’ve liked this restaurant for more than ten years, right? Why don’t you buy it? If you bought it and ran it on your own for so many years, chain stores would probably have opened all over the country. How could it still be so shabby?”

Su Mu didn’t answer him.

The dishes were served very quickly.

“Young master Su, I say it’s fine if you come to this restaurant often, but why do you always order these dishes? Don’t you get tired of them?”

“I don’t.”

“Alright, alright. I can’t beat you. You’re already so old, what’s the point of fighting with a restaurant if you don’t find a girlfriend?”

“What does this have to do with whether or not I find a girlfriend? Also, I’m only 25 years old.”𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
