"Excuse me, how would you like your steak cooked?" the waiter asked with a hint of reserve.
"Uh, medium-rare?" That's how it seems to be played on TV.
Fang Lina didn't want to show her weakness, so she tried her best to perform.
The waiter noticed Fang Lina's embarrassment and a hint of sarcasm flashed across his lips: Tsk, another old-fashioned person.
"Sorry, not medium rare!"
The waiter apologized, but there was no apology on his face. Instead, he looked terrified of arrogance.
Fang Lina's face turned red instantly.
She quickly looked at Fu Simin for help.
Fu Simin: ...How shameful!
If you don’t understand, just ask!
Why pretend to know when you don’t?
In such a high-end restaurant, being ridiculed by a waiter for the most basic order is too, too——
Princess Fu said that if possible, she really didn't want to talk to Fang Lina.
However, she was the one who brought the person here, and since Fang Lina made a fool of herself, she also lost face.
Furthermore, and most importantly: Fang Lina is inferior to others in every way, which highlights her dignity as the little princess of the Fu family.
Patiently, Fu Simin explained to Fang Lina softly, like a lady:
“The steak wasn’t rare!”
"They're basically odd numbers: rare, medium rare; medium rare; medium well; well done."
Fu Simin's English is very standard.
In fact, most of the students in their class are good at English.
Otherwise, I would not have chosen the English major.
However, there is still a difference between standard English and authentic English.
Moreover, at this time, students’ English is mostly used for exams.
Given a test paper with 150 points, Fang Lina can get more than 130 points.
But in daily communication, I feel a little shy.
The key point is that her spoken English is too "standard" and not as fluent and charming as Fu Simin's.
Fang Lina inexplicably developed an inferiority complex.
To hide her embarrassment, she forced a smile and said, "Princess, you know so much!"
Fu Simin remained calm, "This is just common sense, it's nothing!"
Fang Lina: ...
common sense?
But I don’t know.
Perhaps Fu Simin was pleased by Fang Lina, and she began to teach Fang Lina how to use a knife and fork with more patience.
Where is the knife?
How to position the fork.
How to use the knife and fork when eating steak.
Fu Simin’s teaching is very detailed.
Fang Lina felt a little embarrassed at first, but when she saw Fu Simin dining like the European and American socialites in TV dramas, she was immediately attracted.
She watched intently, not daring to miss any details.
Qi Liancheng parked the car, went to the restaurant, and found the couple of girls who were teaching.
For some reason, Qi Liancheng felt awkward seeing one of them teaching and the other learning.
It is obviously a very beautiful picture, especially Fu Simin. Her movements of cutting and eating steak are really very standard.
Just like the "standard" taught in etiquette courses.
But, but Qi Liancheng just felt something was wrong, as if something was missing.
until--
"Gu Nianci? Why is she everywhere?"
Fu Simin was in a good mood as he elegantly picked up a small piece of steak and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully, chewing it slowly, and enjoying Fang Lina's admiring and envious gaze.
However, when she looked up, she saw her "enemy" who ruined her mood.
Fu Simin forgot that if she wanted to show off, she must take Fang Lina to the best Western restaurant.
And since it is the best Western restaurant, there is no way that young master Qin Yichen would miss it.
He was like an active and enthusiastic Husky, leading the way in front.
He kept talking while walking.
It seemed like he was explaining why he brought two beauties to this place.
Perhaps because he was excited, Qin Yichen's voice was a little loud.
The waiter subconsciously frowned and wanted to "remind" him: Please, this is a high-end Western restaurant, not a roadside stall.
It's really rude to shout like that.
So, Chinese people are not of high quality, unlike foreigners who are all so gentleman.
Perhaps because they have been in high-end restaurants for a long time, the waiters have become more particular.
She raised her leg to meet him.
However, the foreman had already taken a quick step and came to Qin Yichen.
"Mr. Qin, you are here!"
What's all the fussing about?
Young Master Qin is really like this!
Besides, Qin Shao's voice was only a little louder than normal, not even reaching the level of shouting.
At most, I didn't deliberately lower my voice.
The waiter was stunned. In Beijing, anyone who was called "Young Master" was probably not an ordinary person.
Fortunately, I didn't get ahead of the foreman, otherwise -
"...Okay, medium-well-done steak."
The head waiter has already taken the guests' order.
Fu Simin and his friends' table was not far away, so they could hear the foreman confirming the order.
Fang Lina was carefully cutting the steak. Upon hearing this, she blurted out, "Well-done? Isn't there only odd numbers?"
One, three, five, seven, nine.
And what is well-done? Very well-done?
Fu Simin quickly said, "Nine-minute rare is actually well-done."
Well done.
Fang Lina didn't understand, "Well-done should be a perfect 10!"
Fu Simin: ...Yeah! But that's what the etiquette teacher taught us.
