“Who is that girl? What’s the relationship between you?” Jiang Ruoqing went out of the auditorium. She could read the mood in that girl’s eyes.

“My ex-girlfriend.” Lin Qi said flatly. He was utterly disappointed with Li Wanyun, therefore, he went out without looking back.

“Why did you break up with her? I guess she was very reluctant to split up with you.”

“Previously, she was dating a fuerdai (an affluent second generation), while I am only a poor boy. But now she was dumped by this fuerdai…” Lin Qi sneered and shook his head.

He didn’t see that Li Wanyun was such a vain woman at first.

Perhaps Jiang Ruoqing had got to know something, then she walked up to a white Porsche and said: “Get into the car, please.”

“Where are we going?” Looking at the car worth millions of RMB yuan, Lin Qi secretly felt speechless privately. What a rich woman she was!

“So let’s go to Taste Pavilion. It’s quiet there.” Jiang Ruoqing stepped on the accelerator, and the Porsche sped off.

The car’s engine was very powerful, and Lin Qi even experienced a strong sensation of push-back by the force. Jiang Ruoqing drove the car whizzing across the motorway, leaving other cars far behind.

Lin Qi also managed to get a driver’s license at the university in order to get more credits, although he had no car to drive. Now this experience tickled his fancy and aroused his hunger for such a great car someday.

As for the place like Taste Pavilion, Lin Qi never dared to imagine that he could enter one day, because this was the most luxurious restaurant in Jin Hai City. Its decoration was luxurious and splendid. Its front door was especially dignified, which was as high as a building of two or three stories, amazingly grand like a palace.

Even the securities here were wearing designer suits. Looking at the cheap clothes he was wearing, Lin Qi had an impulse to turn away at once.

“Sorry sir, you are not allowed access to the restaurant.” Glancing at Lin Qi disdainfully, one of the securities came and said. He could meet many such guys like him in one day.

“Why?” Lin Qi was surprised. Doesn’t Taste Pavilion want to receive the diners?

“Taste Pavilion is a high-grade restaurant with a membership system. If you want to enter, you’ll have to be introduced by a patron and if you want to apply for an ordinary consumption card, you’ll have to pay three million yuan for annual membership fee…” The security sneered.

Taste Pavilion was not open to the public. Those who could have meals here are all celebrities in all industries, and one could enter the restaurant not because he was rich.

It was precisely because of this, many people had a yearning for Taste Pavilion. Some people tried every means to get into it to enjoy the service here. Even if they couldn’t afford to have meals here, they just came to pay a visit, then they could brag to others that they had been in Taste Pavilion.

“I see.” Lin Qi just nodded and then stood still in situ.

The security saw that he wouldn’t leave, he waved his hand in disgust as if he were whisking the flies off: “Why are you still here? Go away at once!”

“I am waiting for my friend. She has gone to buy something and will come here soon.” Lin Qi said flatly.

Hardly had she reached the gate of Taste Pavilion when she left Lin Qi at the gate to wait for her. She said that she went to buy something and would return soon. Lin Qi thought perhaps she was going to buy some privacy items, so he didn’t follow.

“That’s a likely story! You guy, I advise you to leave at once, or don’t blame us for being rude.” The security was very annoyed.

“I am really waiting for my friend. Believe it or not, you will know when she comes.” Lin Qi looked out and thought the woman was really troublesome, how could she not return in more than half an hour.

“So please go aside and wait there. You are not welcome here.” Said the guard, pointing to the main road.

Just at this moment, the guard heard a cold voice: “I am a platinum member here, you say you don’t welcome me?”

Following the voice, the guard stared blankly, he saw a frosty woman slowly coming forward. Her tender hand was taking a shiny platinum card out of her bag.

“He is my friend. He is waiting for me. Any problems?” Jiang Ruoqing held up the platinum membership card.

Immediately the security showed great reverence and repeatedly said sorry to her, then he took the card and swiped it on the card reader of the door. The card reader beeped twice and it showed “the valuable platinum member”. It couldn’t go wrong.

“There is something wrong with your service attitude. I think it’s necessary to report it to Senior Fang.” The person Jiang Ruoqing mentioned was the owner of Taste Pavilion.

“Well…” The guard’s face turned pale. He could not imagine that Lin Qi, who wore such shabby clothes, would have such a beautiful friend?

And it sounded that she seemed to get along well with Senior Fang. If she did tell Senior Fang about it, he could not work here any longer.

“It’s my fault, Sir. I hope you wouldn’t take my remarks amiss.” The guard lowered his head and apologized.

“Forget it. I was coming here only to have a meal.” He waved his hand. It was the first time he came here and he didn’t know there were so many rules to enter the restaurant.

“I am sorry that I come back late. Let’s go inside.” Jiang Ruoqing said and took Lin Qi in her arm to go into Taste Pavilion.

At the moment he entered the restaurant, Lin Qi clearly heard the guards mutter: “Another good cabbage is dug by a pig.” (Another beauty was grabbed by a vulgar man)

They entered and the usher of the restaurant was all smiles and welcomed them at once. After making clear that there were only two of them, the usher led them to a comfortable seat near the window.

Jiang Ruoqing seemed to be a patron here. She opened the menu and ordered a pasta and a fruit salad.

Lin Qi picked up the menu to have a look, then he said with a forced smile: “This is the first time I come here, so I don’t know what to order. Could you recommend a dish for me?”

Thinking for a while, Jiang Ruoqing said directly: “You’d better have Australian steak,‘cause you men are all carnivores”

“Carnivores?” Lin Qi chewed the meaning of her words over, and felt somewhat embarrassed. Did she find out that it was he who texted her in private?

But after thinking for a while, Lin Qi thought it was impossible. She could not know his phone number.

He thought, maybe she found him peering at her chest just now.

Lin Qi took a quick sip of the aperitif to hide his embarrassment as soon as the aperitifs were offered. But he felt the aperitif taste a little weird, so he put down the glass and turned to the steak, which was offered soon afterwards.

He had to say that Taste Pavilion’s cookery was absolutely good indeed, no wonder so many people were eager to struggle through the crush and get into the restaurant to satisfy their taste buds. The steak was cooked to right medium well, tender with a crispy crust, and tasted smooth in mouth.

Although Lin Qi hadn’t experienced in having meals in such a ritzy restaurant ever before, he should at least have seen others eating the steak. Lin Qi picked up the knife and fork, unskilled but successfully made it. Soon he swept one piece of steak in the plate.

While looking at Jiang Ruoqing, he found she was eating with great elegance. Lin Qi could not help thinking that watching a beauty eating was also a kind of enjoyment.

“I’ll order one more for you.”

Jiang Ruoqing had hardly turned to the waiter when her eyes fell casually in the direction of the gate. She stiffened and frowned, with a look of disgust on her face.

Lin Qi was in a daze, following her sight, he saw a man coming in. The man was about 40 years old, dressed in a well-cut shirt, with short clean hair, and seemed to have a kind of refinement, generosity and a sedate personality all over.

Even if he was a little older, he could attract a large number of innocent girls in a flash by the temperament that precipitated and accumulated in the years.

The man glanced around, and could not help showing a light glow of joy when he saw Jiang Ruoqing, and went straight to her.

But Jiang Ruoqing suddenly looked even colder and said: “Why do you come here, Liu Xingming?”
