Chapter 9: Looks First



At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Chen left the Lonely Bar.

The two drank for more than three hours and finished five bottles of Red Star Erguotou.

Even Xiao Chen, who had an outstanding alcohol tolerance, was about five or six points drunk. He did not leave immediately, but lay down on the sofa and took a nap.

As for Xiaodao, he was completely drunk. Holding the knife that had killed countless people with him, he didn't even leave the table and just fell down!

Thinking of Xiaodao's face covered with his hands and full of pain when he left, Xiao Chen couldn't help laughing. This kid still deserves to be offended!

On the way, Xiao Chen called Su Qing, picked her up at the company gate, and then the two rushed to school.

When they arrived at the school, it was already over. As soon as they parked the car, they saw Su Xiaomeng coming out of the campus.

"Su Qing, how is Xiao Meng's grades?"

"Not good, I just barely passed every subject."

Speaking of her younger sister's studies, Su Qing also had a headache, but she didn't want to force her younger sister, as long as she was happy.

Moreover, after working hard in the society for several years, she also fully understands that academic performance is a joke after leaving school! A piece of paper diploma is sometimes not as important as imagined!

"Sixty points in Keke?" Xiao Chen was surprised.

Su Qing nodded and said with a wry smile: "This girl doesn't like studying, and I don't want to force her. I plan to send her to study abroad after the college entrance examination..."

"Haha, don't you think getting 60 points in every subject is more difficult than getting full marks in every subject?" Xiao Chen said meaningfully as he looked at Su Xiaomeng who was approaching from afar.

Su Qing was stunned, then her heart was shocked and her eyes widened.

"Okay, Xiao Meng is here, let's not discuss this anymore." Xiao Chen smiled and muttered to himself, I didn't expect Xiao Meng to be such a top student! But why did she fail the exam on purpose?

Su Qing smiled happily. After Xiao Chen's reminder, she understood that her younger sister was not a bad student, but did not do well in the exam on purpose!

No matter what her reason for deliberately failing the test was, it was better than not studying well, right? I had to find a chance to have a good chat with her some other day...

The car door opened and Su Xiaomeng got in. She immediately saw the smile on her sister's face and asked curiously, "Sister, what are you so happy about?"

"Nothing." Su Qing looked at her little sister lovingly: "Xiao Meng, let's eat out tonight, what do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat Western food. I heard that a French restaurant just opened in French Town. It's very authentic... How about we go and try it?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Su Xiaomeng was overjoyed when her sister agreed: "Sister, you are so nice!"

“Haha, you little girl…” Su Qing chuckled: “Xiao Chen, do you know how to get to French City?”

"I know." Xiao Chen nodded, turned the car around and drove towards French City.

Along the way, the two sisters were chatting, mostly Su Xiaomeng was talking and Su Qing was listening, and laughter could be heard from time to time.

Since getting in the car, Su Xiaomeng has ignored Xiao Chen, which makes him feel helpless. What is this? Is it cold violence?

However, listening to the laughter of the two sisters, he still felt a sense of warmth and happiness in his heart. This was like a family... not the coldness and ruthlessness he had experienced before!

French City is located in the eastern part of Longhai, on one side of the river.

This used to be the French Concession, but later the French Concession disappeared. For various reasons, some of the buildings from that time were not demolished, and many Western restaurants opened thereafter.

So, this area got the name French Town!

Xiao Chen had been to Frenchtown several times before, so he was familiar with the place and quickly found the French restaurant that Su Xiaomeng mentioned.

"Xiao Chen, have you been here before?" Su Qing asked curiously when she saw Xiao Chen was so skilled.

"Yes, twice."

Xiao Chen nodded. He had been to this international city many times before, but he always passed by in a hurry. This time, he didn’t know how long he would stay!

"Hey, Xiao Chen, now that we're here, you can leave. Come pick us up after we finish our meal!" Su Xiaomeng finally paid attention to Xiao Chen, but she wanted to drive him away.

"Xiao Meng, stop messing around!" Su Qing frowned and scolded.

Su Xiaomeng pouted, feeling a little aggrieved. You only know how to scold me, but you didn’t see how this bastard bullied me and even touched my butt…

"Xiao Chen, don't be angry. I spoiled this girl." Su Qing said apologetically.

"Haha, I already treat Xiao Meng as my own sister, so how could I be angry with her?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

Su Qing nodded, glared at her younger sister again, and walked towards the French restaurant.

Because it was still early, there were not many people in the restaurant. The three of them chose a relatively quiet spot and started ordering.

The French waiter came over with an exquisite menu, glanced at the three of them, and handed the menu to Su Qing very elegantly.

"Xiao Meng, you order first." Su Qing handed the menu to her younger sister, and also wanted to take the opportunity to listen to her spoken French.

Su Qing worried a lot about her younger sister. Seeing that her academic performance was not very good, she planned to arrange for her to study in France. She also hired a French tutor to teach her French so that she would not have any difficulties adapting to the environment there!

Su Xiaomeng took the menu and rolled her eyes: "Sister, Xiao Chen is the guest, why don't you let him order first."

Su Qing didn't think much about it and smiled with relief. Although her younger sister was rude just now, she was polite to Xiao Chen now, which meant she knew she was wrong.

"Haha, ladies first, you come first." Su Qing didn't see Su Xiaomeng's sinister intentions, but Xiao Chen saw it clearly. She just wanted to make a fool of herself!

Seeing Xiao Chen refuse, Su Xiaomeng felt that he couldn't understand the French menu. She sneered in her heart and said, "Boy, I'll embarrass you today!"

"Xiao Chen, no, Brother Chen, you are the guest, of course you have to come first, otherwise my sister will blame me for being impolite." Su Xiaomeng said very sincerely.

"Xiao Chen, it's rare that Xiao Meng is so sensible, you go first." Su Qing said with a smile.

Seeing Su Qing said so, Xiao Chen stopped refusing and took the menu: "Okay, then I'll obey your command!" As he said that, he opened the menu and started browsing.

When Su Xiaomeng saw Xiao Chen pretending to look at the menu, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Boy, you don’t know a single letter, right?"

Just as Su Xiaomeng was waiting to see Xiao Chen make a fool of himself, he closed the menu and started communicating with the French waiter in fluent French.

Listening to Xiao Chen's fluent French, the French waiter's eyes lit up and even his smile became more sincere.

Looking at Xiao Chen happily communicating with the waiter, Su Xiaomeng was dumbfounded. How could this be different from what she imagined?

Next to her, Su Qing was also shocked, because she found that Xiao Chen's spoken pronunciation was even more standard and authentic than the French tutor she hired for her younger sister!

Xiao Chen glanced at the two sisters, especially when he saw Su Xiaomeng's stunned look, he laughed in his heart, girl, you wanted to see your brother make a fool of himself, but you ended up being shocked, right?

"Okay, I've finished ordering." Xiao Chen put the menu back in front of Su Xiaomeng: "Just now this handsome French guy recommended me some authentic French dishes, would you like to try them?"

"Oh, okay." Su Xiaomeng nodded in a daze.

Su Qing looked at Xiao Chen deeply. He brought her another surprise!

What kind of person is he?

He has now turned to the second page of this thick book. I wonder how much more exciting things will come next?

After the French waiter left, Su Qing couldn't help but speak: "Xiao Chen, your French..."

"Oh, I lived in France for a while..." Xiao Chen explained casually.

Su Qing suddenly realized, but still felt that Xiao Chen was amazing, because many international students who had stayed in France for many years could not speak French so standardly!

But Su Xiaomeng was silent, thinking, "Boy, you've escaped a disaster!"

The dishes were served one after another.

Looking at all the delicious food, Su Xiaomeng didn't bother to compete with Xiao Chen. She just danced with her knife and fork and started to eat voraciously.

Xiao Chen and Su Qing's movements were much more graceful, especially the latter, which looked so pleasing to the eye.

Suddenly, a pleasant music sounded slowly. Su Xiaomeng turned her head and looked at the center stage. Two blonde French girls were playing the piano and cello.

"Sister, they have such great temperaments, just like princesses." Su Xiaomeng said with some envy.

"Are you jealous now? You refused to learn the piano when I asked you to... But it's not too late now. I'll help you sign up for a class?"

Su Xiaomeng was somewhat tempted: "Sister, then tell me, which one is easier to cultivate your temperament, learning piano or cello?"

Before Su Qing could answer, Xiao Chen spoke up: "Xiao Meng, I think temperament has nothing to do with what you study. It mainly depends on your face. If you are pretty, you can play the suona with temperament, but if you are ugly, playing the gaofu is like shoveling shit!"

“…”

The Su sisters were all frozen in their tracks. Playing golf is like shoveling shit? Isn't it too disgusting to say this while eating?!

Especially Su Xiaomeng, who had just picked up a piece of yellow curry foie gras and was about to enjoy it. She thought it was delicious just now, but now she felt nauseous no matter how she looked at it. It looked too much like... poop!

"Xiao Chen, are you going to let me eat or not?!"

Su Xiaomeng was so angry that she threw the foie gras back on the plate and almost stabbed Xiao Chen in the head with her fork.

Xiao Chen was stunned, but after seeing the expressions of the two women, he understood immediately and smiled bitterly: "Okay, it's my fault..."

After hearing what Xiao Chen said, the two girls lost their appetite for the delicious French food. They drank some juice and stopped using their knives and forks.

As for Xiao Chen, he should eat and drink as he pleases. He has experienced all kinds of harsh environments on the battlefield. If he were so pretentious, he would have starved to death long ago!

After finishing their meal, the three of them went shopping in the nearby shopping mall before driving back to Tulip Villa.

Pop.

Su Xiaomeng turned on the light in the living room and was about to lie down on the sofa to rest for a while, but was pulled back by Xiao Chen.

"Xiao Chen, what are you doing?!" Su Xiaomeng staggered and almost fell.

"Don't go in yet." Xiao Chen stood at the door with a serious expression.

Su Qing was shocked: "Xiao Chen, what's wrong?"
