Chapter 64 Eating Causes Trouble
Sheng Mingjie gave Li Rongsen a few instructions, and then said, "I have to go back. It's almost time. I've told you everything I need to tell you." After that, he left the office.
After An Yan saw him leave, she took out some medicine from her bag, put it on the desk, and said, "This medicine is for you. Apply it on the wound on your forehead, and it will heal quickly."
"Is it for scar removal?" Li Rongsen took it and looked at it carefully, then smelled it. It had a faint orchid scent, and then he put it back in the drawer.
"Well, after fully recovering, it's the same as before." An Yan told him, and then said, "I want to thank you too. It was thanks to you that you blocked the car for me that day." She was referring to the time when he blocked the car for her.
"It's just a small favor." Li Rongsen replied, but he was quite surprised that she would come to him specifically to thank him.
"You probably still need some bodyguards here," An Yan asked him. She thought more manpower was always good.
"No shortage." Li Rongsen answered her instinctively, but after thinking carefully, he asked her again, "Why, do you have good bodyguards?"
"I have a friend who works in this business. If you need anything, you can contact him." An Yan said as she placed Xia Nianhua's business card on his desk.
Li Rongsen picked it up and looked at it, then said, "Okay, I understand."
An Yan stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Thank you so much for what you did today. I'll treat you to dinner. Are you free?" Li Rongsen asked her. Seeing that she hesitated, he quickly said, "Can we go back to your house first and bring your father and brother with us?"
An Yan thought for a moment and said, "My dad is staying at Hua Ye's place for two days. My brother went to have dinner with his classmates."
"That's perfect. You don't have to go home to cook. Just eat outside, and then I'll take you home. You don't have your car anymore, so it's not convenient for you to go back." Li Rongsen asked for her opinion.
Having a meal was not impossible, and An Yan felt that there was no reason to refuse him, so she said, "Okay then."
Li Rongsen picked up his suit jacket and gestured for An Yan to walk in front.
The two of them chose a Korean barbecue restaurant. It was not very famous, but it had a good reputation and many people came here. The environment was also quite good, and most of the rooms were private, unlike other places which were noisy.
Li Rongsen asked An Yan to order first.
Anyan said: "I can do anything, you can order."
Li Rongsen started ordering after hearing what she said. He ordered some signature dishes, dishes that were very popular. He then said, "Try it later. If you are not used to the taste, we can go to another restaurant."
"It's okay. I'm not picky about what I eat."
Soon, the waiter brought the dishes. Li Rongsen signaled An Yan that she could take a break and he would be responsible for grilling the meat.
An Yan was not idle either, she roasted some vegetables.
Li Rongsen asked her, "How did you get to know my grandfather, and how did you end up treating his leg? He had lost confidence in his legs a long time ago. He was very superstitious."
"He may lose confidence, but I have medical skills, and he will believe it when he sees the results." An Yan answered him.
"My grandfather asked you to go to his place." Li Rongsen put the cooked meat in a clean empty bowl and was about to hand it to An Yanshi.
An Yan said, "I can do it myself. Barbecue is not difficult."
Li Rongsen did not force it. He knew that An Yan's personality was different from other women. Other women's "no" was just words, pretending to make excuses, but she was different. What she said was what she meant.
Don't do what she has already told you, otherwise she will be unhappy.
Therefore, Li Rongsen did not help her.
An Yan added, "I was wondering why your grandfather wanted to see me. Now it seems that Wang Lina said something to him. He thought I was an obstacle, so he wanted me to leave."
"My grandfather is a person who believes in fate very much. Feng shui and physiognomy masters are his guests of honor." Li Rongsen had advised him several times, but he still did his own thing. This time he changed quickly.
An Yan said: "People, when they are desperate or powerless, tend to believe in fate."
"In my opinion, it's basically negative." Li Rongsen has always believed that one should rely on oneself.
This was consistent with An Yan's views. She nodded and said, "This barbecue tastes really good."
"If you like it, you can come again next time."
"It depends on the time. You have to be careful recently, especially you. You are the target of everyone's criticism now. It will not be good for you to offend those people under you so quickly." An Yan kindly woke him up.
"If you want to stand firm, you have to make sacrifices. This is inevitable." Li Rongsen is not afraid of death. He has died once, so he has become indifferent to many things.
"The three major families have suffered such a huge loss this time, there must be some secret plot." An Yan naturally knew that there would be many troubles in the future, so she wanted to build the house quickly so that the two old people would have a place to live in peace.
She has offended a lot of people during this period, and there will always be people who want to cause trouble for her.
Li Rongsen said, "I'll send more people to Wancaotang to prevent them from taking the opportunity to cause trouble there."
"Okay." An Yan nodded.
"Wang Lina's problem has finally been resolved. After all, I have to thank you. It seems I still have a meal to treat you to. I hope you won't refuse." Li Rongsen said to her sincerely.
"What happened between you and Wang Lina has nothing to do with me. Why do you have to give me the credit? It's like I'm your accomplice. It's weird." An Yan told the truth.
Li Rongsen smiled faintly and quickly explained to her, "That's not what I meant. According to my grandfather's character, he would never disobey the fortune teller and insist that I marry Wang Lina. But now he has broken his obsession with fortune telling and let me make the arrangements myself. It's because you treated his leg."
"Who would have thought that something like this would happen." An Yan really didn't expect that things could happen according to such logic.
Li Rongsen was always grateful to her in his heart, even though this was just an accident.
"Don't be too happy too soon. Wang Lina may not let you go. Some things cannot be escaped." An Yan reminded him again.
He had to remember how Li Rongsen died before, because maybe something like this would happen again.
"I understand." Li Rongsen nodded.
The two people were having a very pleasant meal, chatting as they ate, and were completely unaware that there were reporters passing by them.
The reporter was very thoughtful. He squatted there for a long time, trying to take some photos of intimate actions, but he found that there were none, not even the action of them picking up food from each other.
The two of them ate in a very proper manner, and there was absolutely nothing interesting to reveal.
But even so, the reporter felt that this matter was profitable. After all, Li Rongsen rarely ate out, especially with a woman. Recently, he had not even eaten with Wang Lina.
So he was certain that this woman had an unusual relationship with Li Rongsen.
The front page headlines of the next day's newspapers were all filled with reports about photos of Li Rongsen dating An Yan, saying that they were secretly doing some shameless things behind Wang Lina's back, and that the mistress was so rampant that she directly squeezed out the wife.
All of a sudden, Wang Lina became the person that everyone sympathized with, and everyone was cursing An Yan.
