Chapter 54: Their first date
After staying in the teahouse for a while, Jin Yu still didn't see Mo Wenqian. After searching in vain, she finally left in disappointment and went to keep a date with Meng Jinyan with Wen Chuyue.
Wen Chuyue was very nervous on the way to find Meng Jinyan.
"Ah Jin, you are going on a date with the young master, why did you bring me along? If I go, it will be more than just the effect of a light bulb. The young master will look at me coldly and will definitely hack me to death with his knife."
Hearing this, Jin Yu couldn't help laughing.
"I'm going to look for Meng Jinyan, and I'll take you to see Gu Feng."
When Wen Chuyue heard the word "Gu Feng", her face turned red.
It was more than twenty minutes later when we arrived at Yueshanju Restaurant.
As Jin Yu was led forward by the waiter, he immediately saw Meng Jinyan sitting at table number five by the window.
The man had a handsome profile and wore only a black shirt. As he sat leaning back in his chair, he looked dignified and elegant, as if that was innate.
After sitting down opposite him, the first thing Jin Yu asked was, "What do you want to talk to me about my mother?"
Hearing her slightly anxious voice, Meng Jinyan smiled slightly, "You just sat down and didn't even say hello to me, but you're so impatient to know about your mother."
Jin Yu pursed her lips slightly but did not deny it.
Especially when she learned from Jian Bing about her mother's original intention of building the teahouse and the difficulties the teahouse is facing now.
What he wanted to tell her was not good news for her. Seeing her silent, Meng Jinyan's smile was relaxed and he stopped trying to create a relaxed atmosphere. When he spoke again, his words were a little serious, "Gu Feng found out that Gu Qinghuan, who holds the second largest share of the teahouse, is now selling his shares."
Hearing this, Jin Yu took a breath of cool air.
Their eyes met. He was calm, but she was anxious, with her hands clenched tightly together under the table.
Several times, her rosy lips trembled.
Before coming here, she had thought that if she wanted to protect the teahouse left by her mother and keep it in its original state until her biological father came, the largest shareholder of the teahouse could not be anyone else. Moreover, Jian Bing had told her that once the largest shareholder changed, that person would most likely change the teahouse's business model, or even worse, he might change the entire style of the teahouse.
At this point, she could only ask him for a loan, but the words got stuck in her throat.
Before she could finish her words, Meng Jinyan spoke first, his voice deep and manly, "But we were still a step late. Now, Gu Qinghuan has sold all his shares."
Jin Yu's eyes suddenly widened, "When?"
Why is it so sudden?
Jian Bing had just told her not long ago that Gu Qinghuan only intended to sell off his shares, so how come the deal was reached so quickly?
She was puzzled, but more worried.
"Just one minute before I sent you a message." Seeing her lost expression, he asked another question.
"You seem to know this."
After learning that Gu Qinghuan had sold all her shares, Jin Yu was in a bad state and in a very low mood. She did not hide it, "Well, I met my mother's assistant Jian Bing in the teahouse, and she told me about this."
Hearing the familiar name, Meng Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Besides this, what else did she tell you?"
"She said that my mother built the teahouse in order to wait for someone, and that person was most likely my biological father. She also said that this teahouse was a code word agreed upon between my mother and the person she was waiting for. She also said that she hoped I could manage the teahouse. In addition, she also said that my biological father's status was not simple and not accessible to ordinary people."
Having said this, she was silent for a few seconds.
Then, as if thinking of something, he added, "I originally wanted to borrow money from you, because once the people who speak the language of the teahouse change, the future business model and decoration style of this teahouse will change, and it may even no longer be called a teahouse in the future."
After saying this, she became completely depressed.
Seeing this, Meng Jinyan stared at her intently and called her in a low voice, "Jin Yu."
Jin Yu looked up blankly.
"What's wrong?"
"What is our relationship?"
She didn't think much about it and said, "Marriage..."
She almost uttered the word "partner", but when she looked into his dark and deep eyes, she changed her words abruptly.
"Marriage relationship."
The man corrected, "No, it's a husband-wife relationship."
When the word "husband and wife" came out from between his lips, there was a special taste. Looking at him, Jin Yu didn't dare to say anything.
"It's not the case that a husband and wife would borrow money. Besides, didn't I tell you before that if you want to find your biological father, you can ask me for help. After all, if you rely on your own strength alone, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack if you want to find your father."
"Jin Yu, we are husband and wife, and also family. If you encounter problems that you cannot solve, don't be stubborn or blind. You can come to me for advice."
At this moment, when he said this, his expression was less careless than usual and more serious and sincere.
He is mature like this.
Thinking back to the six years she had spent in darkness, Jin Yu's eyes turned red and tears almost fell.
In the past six years, all she had done was compromise and be brave.
But now, someone said to her, we are family, you don't have to be stubborn, you can talk to him if you have any problems. Just one sentence broke her pretending to be strong and indifferent shell.
However, just as she was feeling sad and moved, the man opposite her suddenly frowned. The maturity from the previous second was gone, and in this second he attacked her without caring about her life or death.
"Don't cry, you look ugly when you cry. If you dare to cry, don't eat and get out of here right now."
Jin Yu: “…”
Very good, the tears have withdrawn themselves.
It was also at this time that the waiter came to deliver the food, classic Western food, grilled steak, sambal fried prawns, sea bream, and herb roasted chicken.
While the waiter was serving the meal, Meng Jinyan's full attention was on Jin Yu's face. He discovered that she really loved to cry.
It's like having a masochistic tendency.
He treated her badly, but she smiled.
Once you treat her nicely, you will suffer.
When I cry, my eyes turn red.
Like a little rabbit being bullied by him.
Well, she's quite difficult to please.
If you want to make her laugh and be happy, you have to be a little mean to her.
He sighed in his heart, it's difficult.
After the waiter left, Meng Jinyan remained indifferent, with no smile on his face, "Eat."
Jin Yu nodded obediently, "Okay."
Meng Jinyan: “…”
Although she was hit hard by him just when she was moved, Jin Yu was still grateful to him. After cutting the first piece of veal from her plate, she immediately put it on his plate.
As his eyes swept over her, she thanked him earnestly.
"Meng Jinyan, thank you."
Although the steak she cut was small, it was full of thought.
As Meng Jinyan lowered his eyes and stared at the small piece of steak that stood out on the plate, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He knew that she liked him.
"I feel your intention."
Hearing this, Jin Yuchong curled his lips towards him, with a grateful smile still in his eyes.
But little did people know that what Meng Jinyan meant by "your intention" was not just gratitude for the steak, but her love for him.
In a cafe outside the restaurant, Gu Feng and Wen Chuyue each held a pair of binoculars. When they saw Jin Yu cutting steak for Meng Jinyan, they were very excited.
"It seems that the first date between the eldest master and the young mistress was a success. It's really rare and not easy!"
"Ah Jin looks very happy. It seems that Ah Jin is also very satisfied with the date arranged by the young master this time."
However, before the two of them had a few seconds of excited discussion, the picture in the telescope suddenly changed.
Then, they thought that his eldest son was quite hypocritical.
After eating the small piece of steak that Jin Yu passed to him, Meng Jinyan ate the one he cut himself, and the two were completely different.
Immediately, he raised his eyes, glanced at the person opposite him, and made a request, "I want to exchange steak with you."
Jin Yu had just forked half a small tomato into her mouth when she heard this and was stunned. "Huh?"
The man repeated, "Switch the steak."
“But I’ve eaten it.”
"Change."
Seeing that he was determined to change the plate, Jin Yu had no choice but to exchange the plate with him.
However, within a few seconds, the man put a piece of steak into his mouth and frowned, "No need to change."
"ah?"
"You help me cut my steak."
Jin Yu looked at Meng Jinyan in confusion, and then heard him say, "I cut it, you eat it, you cut it, I eat it."
Although she didn't understand why he did this, she didn't say anything when she saw him start cutting.
After cutting and returning the piece, Meng Jinyan forked a piece and put it into his mouth. In an instant, his brows relaxed. It was delicious!
