Jin Yimeng: "Yeah, what's wrong? Can't we eat here?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Of course not. We have a rule here that guests who bring roses to dine need to dine in our private room to avoid damaging your roses."
"Yeah?"
Jin Yimeng and Yi Li looked at each other.
Yi Li: "Then take us there. I just came here and don't know much about these things."
The waiter took them to the private room and said, "Of course. I just came to this town to work two years ago."
Yili pretended to complain: "It's really troublesome to raise a rose. Not only do I have to carry it with me every day, but I also have to keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get hurt."
The waiter soothed him, "You'll understand this after you've lived here for a while. Everyone's rose is precious. Once your roses bloom and are transplanted to the ground, you won't have to worry about it anymore."
"Too."
Yi Li nodded and looked at the rose seedling in her bag. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the rose seemed a little unhappy.
Arriving at the box, Yili took a seat, took out a rose, and poured some tea on it: "Come, have some tea, you're welcome."
The waiter next to him wanted to stop it, but he was a beat slower than Yili.
"Rose should be able to drink tea, right?"
Yi Li looked at the waiter.
The waiter curled his lips and said, "I don't know. After all, everyone's rose characteristics and temperament are different."
Yi Li nodded: "As long as I don't die from drinking it, that's fine."
waiter:"……"
Then you have a really big heart.
Yili saw the rose that was visibly excited and thought of the rose monsters with mouths and buds on them, and raised his eyebrows.
It seems that I need to study it carefully.
After drinking the delicious rose, I felt a chill on my back and a bad premonition.
"Order it."
Nan Ke distributed the menu to them.
Yili took the menu and saw the dishes. There were many varieties, all of which were Western food.
Yili and his friends ordered some food within their budget and started chatting with the waiter to get to know the town.
"Why did you want to settle here in the first place?"
Jin Yimeng spoke first, using the name to bring them closer together.
The waiter smiled and said, "I've always heard that this is the land of roses, with the largest number of red rose plantations, so I wanted to come here for a trip. After spending some time here, I found it so beautiful and so attractive that I decided to settle down here."
"What did your sister do before coming to Rose Town?"
Jin Yimeng asked.
Waiter: "I used to be the vice president of a Fortune 500 company, but that life was too tiring. I prefer my life now."
Yi Li: "..."
The vice president of a Fortune 500 company turned into a waitress in a restaurant.
Isn’t the gap between the two identities a bit too big?
Isn't it more tiring to work here?
There isn't even much money.
None of the three people believed what she said.
Jin Yimeng pretended to be shocked and said, "Wow, I didn't expect that you were the vice president of a Fortune 500 company before. You are amazing, right? You gave up like that and still live here."
The waiter smiled and said, "I used to only want a life full of material possessions, neglecting what I truly needed. Now I understand that the thing people can lose most is their love. My husband is from here, and when we got together, I realized that all the things I once had were nothing compared to him."
"What does your husband do? He actually made you give up your life outside."
Jin Yimeng said with envy.
The waiter showed a shy expression on her face: "He is the rose grower here and he is very nice to me."
Yili: "It seems like you two have a very good relationship."
Waiter: “Yes.”
After the waiter left, Yili's smile disappeared.
"There's something wrong with her."
Jin Yimeng nodded: "I think so too."
Yi Li: "How could a vice president of a Fortune 500 company be willing to work as a waitress here after just one trip? And even marry a local flower-growing man?"
Jin Yimeng: "It's not impossible. What if she's just in love?"
Yi Li: "...What you said makes sense."
Nan Ke pondered: "Love? The love here?"
Yi Li: "On my way here, I found that most of the people walking on the street were couples."
Just then, there was a loud crashing sound outside.
Yi Li immediately got up and opened the door to see.
"Bitch! Where's my money? Where's the money I used to gamble?"
The man lifted the woman by the collar. The woman was the one who had just told them about her love life.
She looked at him with a cowardly and fearful expression: "That's the child's tuition, I can't give it to you."
He cursed: "What's the point of reading a book, you little bastard? You can't even plant a rose. You're really polluting my excellent bloodline."
The woman's eyes instantly turned red when she heard this: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Yi Li saw the woman's face clearly. There was a huge slap mark on the left side of her cheek, which was red and swollen, which was enough to show how much strength the man had used.
When Jin Yimeng saw this scene, he instantly became furious.
"Fuck! How can this scumbag be so disgusting!"
Yi Li took a deep breath: "Now I am sure, there is indeed a problem here."
"I agree with you."
Everyone around them ignored the couple and was immersed in their own world.
After the waiter came to serve the food, he saw Jin Yimeng and his group standing at the door: "Do you need anything?"
Jin Yimeng pointed there and said, "Don't you guys care about it?"
Another waiter laughed when he heard this: "We're all used to it. It's just a little flirtation between them. You're not married yet, right? You'll understand once you do."
Jin Yimeng: "..."
Suddenly I feel a little afraid of marriage.
A cowardly mother, a gambling father, and a child who is despised as a waste, it is simply a broken home.
She was a vice president with a million-dollar income, yet she had fallen to this point.
After they returned to the box, Jin Yimeng looked at Yi Li and said, "There seems to be something wrong with their thinking."
"Love?"
“Where is the largest local library?”
Nan Ke looked at Yi Li and said, "Only boys are allowed to enter the library here. Girls are not allowed to enter."
Jin Yimeng: "Ah? Why?"
Yi Li: "Because the men here don't want women to be superior to them."
Yili thought of the fatherly "uncle", the silent aunt and the little boy who insisted on becoming a chef but was labeled as a waste by men.
Here, entering the rose field and planting roses seems to be a very honorable job.
She saw that the shops on the street were selling fresh roses.
There are very few food stores and daily necessities stores.
There's something strange about the economy here.
