Chapter 71 A Meal That Should Not Be Eaten
The relationship between Lin Yilan and Chu Xi became increasingly intimate, and this was invisible, even Lin Yilan herself did not notice it.
The past few days have been very comfortable. After the last cold war, Lin Yilan also realized her own shortcomings.
If she encounters any urgent matters, she will call Huo Juncheng in advance.
After class, Lin Yilan strolled in the school. Since Sister Xia came, Lin Yilan felt that her body had become more and more plump.
Every time she ate dinner, she would have one more steamed bun than usual. She sighed. She had just wanted to make a change. She had just learned how to take care of her skin and put on makeup, but her body had become uncontrollably fat.
She secretly made up her mind to eat less tonight.
Just when Lin Yilan was about to take a taxi home, Ji Nian suddenly came straight towards her from the playground and waved.
Ji Nian was holding a basketball in his hand and ran towards Lin Yilan, sweating profusely.
Lin Yilan hadn't found a chance to thank him for what happened in the supermarket last time, and it just so happened that she met Ji Nian today.
"Teacher Lin! Are you done with get out of class?" Ji Nian stood beside Lin Yilan, panting, looking at her with a smile on his face.
Lin Yilan nodded and said a little embarrassedly: "Last time, I didn't have time to thank you before you went home. School is over, why don't you go home?"
"It's like this. There's a basketball game at school soon, so I want to practice more. Teacher Lin, are you free later? Let's have dinner together?" Ji Nian said as he walked side by side with Lin Yilan.
Want to eat?
Lin Yilan recalled carefully that Huo Juncheng didn't call her today, so she thought he might have something to do at the company.
Seeing Ji Nian's expectant expression, Lin Yilan took a deep breath and nodded: "Then let's go to the school cafeteria?"
"That won't do. The food in school is too ordinary. Oh no, I mean, Teacher Lin is a teacher I like very much. I know a restaurant that makes very good steak. Let's go there for some steak!" Ji Nian said as he stopped a taxi without giving Lin Yilan a chance to refuse.
Sitting in the car, Lin Yilan was still thinking that Ji Nian was just a student, so it was a bit too expensive for him to go out for steak.
After careful consideration, she decided to pay the bill when they had dinner later. After all, she was a teacher, wasn't she?
After arriving at the restaurant, Lin Yilan became more certain of her idea.
This restaurant is very famous, a Michelin five-star restaurant. Although Lin Yilan is here for the first time, she, who doesn't like Western food very much, has heard of JUS before.
She stood outside the door and pointed at the restaurant, saying a little sheepishly, "It's just a meal, anything is fine. I think we should go somewhere else?"
"How can this be? I have already booked a seat in advance!" Ji Nian was a little panicked. He lost his composure and said the wrong thing without realizing it.
Lin Yilan, who was standing by, was very surprised. She asked in confusion, "Weren't you just playing ball? How did you make a reservation in advance?"
this......
Ji Nian lowered his head in embarrassment. "Well, I know what time you finish class, Teacher Lin, so I booked a restaurant in advance and waited for you in the playground. I've always remembered your teachings, and I think you're a good teacher. I really just wanted to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."
He explained in a somewhat helpless and flustered manner.
"I am very serious and responsible to every student, but it's not because I want to gain something from you. Because you are my students, so I must be responsible for you to the end, that's all. I'll treat you to this meal, but this is the first and last time. Don't do this again in the future, okay?" Lin Yilan taught Ji Nian while walking with him into the restaurant.
The waiter took them to the seat that Ji Nian had reserved in advance, which was near the window and the view looked really nice.
The appetizer was a panda-shaped pudding.
It looked very tempting. Lin Yilan gently picked it up with a fork and put it in her mouth. It was smooth, tender and sweet!
This tastes really good, no wonder this restaurant is so expensive.
Lin Yilan was completely immersed in the food throughout the meal and didn't even look at Ji Nian.
In her eyes, Ji Nian was just one of her students. Lin Yilan didn't have so many dirty thoughts in her mind, so she naturally wouldn't think of Ji Nian in other ways.
But the dishes in front of Ji Nian were almost untouched, his eyes were fixed on Lin Yilan.
The girl in front of him exuded a strange glow. Although she was not wearing any makeup and did not hide her eating habits, in Ji Nian's mind, she was a hundred times more beautiful than his cousin Lin Pinyan.
"Why don't you eat? I see you've been in a daze." Lin Yilan ate until she was eight-tenths full, rubbed her round belly, and asked Ji Nian in surprise.
Ji Nian clapped his hands, and a girl holding a violin came from not far away and stood in front of them, playing the accompaniment affectionately.
"I just think Teacher Lin is so beautiful that I can't help but always want to see you." Ji Nian did not hide his inner thoughts.
Lin Yilan was shocked. She didn't expect that Ji Nian's feelings for her were not the kind of feelings between teacher and student.
However, before Lin Yilan could say anything, she saw a man and a woman walking straight towards them not far away. The man was handsome in a suit and tie, and the woman was dressed seductively and charmingly. The two of them standing together looked like a perfect match, pleasing to the eye.
That moment stung Lin Yilan's eyes.
"Madam, you are here too?" Chu Xi spoke first. She was shocked when she saw Lin Yilan.
The four of them looked at each other, and Huo Juncheng's expression suddenly changed.
Lin Yilan felt a little embarrassed. No wonder Huo Juncheng didn't call her in advance to ask if she wanted to have dinner together.
It turned out that Huo Juncheng came to eat with Chu Xi.
Lin Yilan was distraught, but she still suppressed her emotions and forced a smile: "It's quite a coincidence. If we hadn't run into each other by chance, I wouldn't have known that Huo Juncheng was so blatantly cheating."
There was something hidden in her words, a veiled sarcasm towards the Ming Dynasty.
Huo Juncheng snorted coldly, glanced at Ji Nian with contempt and said, "I'm afraid I'm not the one who cheated."
"I'm done eating, enjoy your meal." Lin Yilan was too lazy to talk too much with Huo Juncheng in a crowded place. She picked up her backpack and rushed out the door.
Chu Xi hurried over, pretending to be aggrieved, and pulled Lin Yilan's arm to explain, "Madam, it's not what you see. Please believe me, it's just because I helped Mr. Huo secure a big project this time. Mr. Huo said he would reward me, so I chose the restaurant. We had planned to call you after we got a table at the restaurant."
Looking at Chu Xi's pitiful expression, Lin Yilan wanted to say something, but hesitated.
