Chapter 329 What's the Difference?
Chu Siran took a sip of boiled water and kept an eye on the number of votes below. As long as the number of votes increased, he would ask Lin Yilan to check it out.
Lin Yilan's mind couldn't hold all these anymore. She just raised her head and said "Hmm" perfunctorily: "I know." She didn't drink, so what was the point of a 30% discount on alcohol?
The meals they ordered were quickly served. Chu Siran just picked up his knife and fork to cut his steak when a familiar male voice floated down from above him: "What a coincidence, you're here too. Do you mind joining us?"
Chu Siran and Lin Yilan looked over together, and they didn't expect that it would be Qin Chaotian and Chu Xi... Chu Xi didn't really want to come over, and now that she and Qin Chaotian were eating out so blatantly, it would inevitably feel a bit awkward if Chu Siran saw them.
But since Qin Chaotian had come, Chu Xi had no way to avoid him. She pushed her hair back and smiled like a lady from a noble family: "Sister, Sister Yilan, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Um."
Chu Siran had never known how to treat Chu Xi. If it weren't for Chu Xi, things between her and Qin Chaotian wouldn't have progressed so quickly. Although she didn't really care who Qin Chaotian dated, seeing Chu Xi with her "fiancé" really made her feel like she had eaten shit.
This Chu Xi, isn't he just thinking about bringing me down now?
Otherwise, she really couldn't find any reason for Chu Xi to go out to eat with Qin Chaotian!
Qin Chaotian sat down as he spoke. Lin Yilan's eyes were so cunning. When she saw Chu Siran was unhappy, she held down the stool that Qin Chaotian was about to sit down and said, "We have something to do. Go and get another table."
Qin Chaotian and Chu Xi were rejected so obviously, and they were all well-known figures, so they couldn't just blame it on this.
He nodded to Lin Yilan very gentlemanly and said, "Okay." Then he took Chu Xi to the seat that had been reserved.
After Chu Xi sat down gracefully, she looked at the photo of Chu Siran and Lin Yilan on the scrolling big screen and said enviously, "That's great! When will I have such a good friend?"
Qin Chaotian tied up the disposable bib and asked with a smile: "Miss Chu Xi is so beautiful, don't you have any friends? I don't believe it."
"No." When Chu Xi said this, he lowered his head deliberately: "Hey... my world is not the same as what Brother Chaotian imagined."
"Oh?" Qin Chaotian continued patiently, "Tell me, what's different?"
Chu Xi was waiting for his words. She pretended to squeeze out tears, but no tears came out. The crystal tear frost just stayed in her eye sockets, creating a pitiful feeling for others.
She took a deep breath and put on her act. Lowering her voice, she said, "Brother Chaotian, you know I'm not a biological child of the Chu family. Although the Chu family treats me well, I'm not a biological child after all, and my life is a huge contrast to my sister's. The servants in our family look down on me when they look at me in private."
"Is it that exaggerated?" Qin Chaotian knew that she was making it up. After all, how could a woman get close to a man without using some tricks?
"So I'm telling you, you won't believe it." Chu Xi smiled with relief: "Okay, it's okay, it's all in the past. If you don't believe me, Brother Chaotian, I won't continue. Just think of it as a story I made up for you."
Chu Xi asked the waiter for the same dishes as Lin Yilan and her table. She caught sight of Chu Siran's face on the scrolling screen, and a flash of hatred crossed her eyes, then vanished in the blink of an eye.
She held out her hand pretentiously, blinking her big, twinkling eyes in a cute way: "Give me the phone."
Qin Chaotian frowned, not understanding what she meant.
Chu Xi explained with a smile, "Vote for me. If I'm elected, I can benefit from it in the future. I can get 30% off on drinks."
"Are you still short of that little money?" Qin Chaotian said with a smile.
"It's not bad, but I've never experienced a sale in my life... My mother already prepared everything for me, and I always use my credit card to buy clothes without asking the price... Sigh."
Qin Chaotian shook his head and chuckled, then took out a golden card from his pocket.
There was no bank serial number or card number on it, so it didn't look like a bank card. He handed it to Chu Xi and said, "If you like this, you can eat for free at this restaurant from now on."
"Free?" Chu Xi quickly returned the valuable item: "No need. I'm not the type to take advantage of something like this. Brother Chaotian, that's not what I meant..."
Qin Chaotian raised his arm and interrupted, "I know, but this is what I mean. I have plenty of cards like this. If I give you one, I can take another. I also have shares in this restaurant, so what are you afraid of?"
"No, nothing." Chu Xi's eyes were always on the golden card.
This seemed to be the first time in her life... someone had given her something.
She remembered that time before, but she couldn't even remember how long ago it was. Chu Xi looked at the card, then raised her head to look at Qin Chaotian. Suddenly, a wave of emotion came over her.
Qin Chaotian is actually quite handsome.
The orange light quietly clipped his outline, and the gold-rimmed lenses also photosynthesized with the light, reflecting colorful light, which was reflected on his face.
Chu Xi felt his cheeks burning. He carefully took the gold-plated card and placed it on the table in front of him.
She didn't dare look at him, lowered her head and said shyly, "Thank you, I'll take it without hesitation."
"Well, take it. It's not something valuable."
…
Chu Siran used a knife and fork to pierce the steak on the white porcelain plate with such force that the steak was riddled with holes.
Lin Yilan had been lost in thought, but when her peripheral vision caught sight of Chu Siran, she quickly regained her composure. She followed the direction of Chu Siran's fierce gaze and looked over—it was the table where Qin Chaotian and Chu Xi were sitting.
"Chu Siran?" Lin Yilan called her tentatively.
What is this woman doing like this? Doesn't she dislike Qin Chaotian?
She just threw away the red roses Qin Chaotian gave her. Does she still care who Qin Chaotian is dating now?
Seeing that Chu Siran ignored her, Lin Yilan waved her hands in front of her a few times, and finally called her back to life: "What are you doing? Are you jealous?"
"I'm not envious or jealous, I only feel hatred." Chu Siran said, and stabbed the steak hard with his knife and fork.
Lin Yilan: “…”
"What are you hating? Don't you dislike Qin Chaotian? Wouldn't it be a good thing if Chu Xi and Qin Chaotian could like each other?"
Chu Siran cut a piece of steak and stuffed it into his mouth: "You are right! But I don't want Qin Chaotian to be with Chu Xi. I will bless Qin Chaotian with anyone except Chu Xi! No!"
Lin Yilan really didn't understand her logic and asked, "What's the difference?"
