Chapter 441 - 441 0442 The Sour Feeling
441: Chapter 0442: The Sour Feeling 441: Chapter 0442: The Sour Feeling Jinling’s seafood restaurant was considered high class within Jinling’s dining industry.
Zhao Rubing had never dined there before, so naturally, she was very happy when Ye Qiu brought her here to eat.
Ye Qiu parked the car in the parking lot outside the seafood restaurant and walked with Zhao Rubing toward the main entrance, discovering that many patrons had already arrived.
“Sir, miss, do you have a reservation?
Which table?”
asked the cashier at the front desk.
“No reservation.
Do you have private rooms available?”
Zhao Rubing asked.
“Let me check.”
The female cashier at the front desk checked the computer system and found that there was one private room left.
“There’s one available, but there’s a minimum spending limit.”
Ye Qiu knew such policies were common in these restaurants, but it did not matter to him.
When Zhao Rubing looked his way, Ye Qiu said, “That’s fine.”
A waitress led Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing to the private room, and upon closing the door, they confirmed that it was much quieter than the noisy main hall.
At the large dining table were only Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing.
Ye Qiu had initially thought about inviting others but, after a moment’s consideration, decided against it, knowing it was a taboo when courting a girl.
“Order whatever you like!”
The waitress brought over the menu, and Ye Qiu handed it to Zhao Rubing.
Zhao Rubing looked through it, seeing a selection of upscale seafood—abalone, sea cucumber, fish maw, giant lobsters, and so on.
Zhao Rubing ordered five dishes, feeling that should be enough.
Ye Qiu said, “Order a few more, I haven’t dined here many times before.”
He realized that one of the biggest differences between Heaven and Earth was that although Heaven had various delicious ingredients, it could not replicate the exquisite tastes of Earth.
When Zhao Rubing ordered three more dishes, including three Australian giant lobsters, she planned to take one home later for her sister to try.
“I’ll take what I can’t finish home for my sister to eat.”
Zhao Rubing said.
Her little thoughts were naturally evident to Ye Qiu, but he said nothing.
“Sir, would you like some wine?
We have white wine, red wine, and other beverages.”
“Bring a bottle of red wine and two beverages, please!”
The waitress took the menu and left; the dishes naturally had already exceeded the minimum charge of the private room.
They chatted for less than a few minutes when the red wine and the dishes they had ordered began arriving one by one.
With no one else watching, Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing feasted.
By nine in the evening, the two were finally full, still leaving behind two Australian lobsters, each weighing six pounds and costing two to three thousand yuan each.
When Ye Qiu called the waitress to pack the leftovers, Zhao Rubing intended to take them home for her sister.
As Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing left the private room, he went to the cashier to pay, then got into the car and drove from there toward the residential area where Zhao Ruxue lived in Jiangbei.
By the time they reached the residential area where Zhao Ruxue lived, it was already eleven at night.
Zhao Ruxue, who had just gotten off work, saw her sister’s car parked in the parking lot and assumed she was upstairs, but upon heading up, she did not find Zhao Rubing, suspecting she might be in Jiangnan instead.
Just then, hearing the door open while she was watching TV, Zhao Ruxue looked over to see her sister and Ye Qiu.
“Where have you guys been?”
Zhao Ruxue asked.
“Sis, today Ye Qiu and I went to a lot of places.”
Zhao Rubing said.
However, Ye Qiu had no plans to stick around; he needed to go home and continue his cultivation.
“Ruxue, Ruibing, I’m leaving now.”
Ye Qiu greeted Zhao Ruxue, then he didn’t stay behind.
As Ye Qiu descended from the upstairs and drove off in his Mercedes AMG, Zhao Rubing opened the two large lobsters she had brought back and said to Zhao Ruxue, “Sis, I brought these back especially for you.”
Zhao Ruxue had already seen them.
“These two lobsters cost about five to six thousand.”
Zhao Ruxue heated them up and then brought them out, asking Zhao Rubing, “Where did you eat?”
“Listen to me, sis.”
Zhao Rubing was thrilled, but Zhao Ruxue felt a bittersweet feeling inside, somewhat sour.
This feeling was like when Ye Qiu, back then, drove Zhao Rubing’s BMW, took Zhao Ruxue out for a ride and to eat Western food.
Only now, the roles had completely reversed.
“This morning, Ye Qiu took me to a fancy Western restaurant in Jiangnan.
Unexpectedly, right after Ye Qiu and I finished eating, that kid from the Ning Family deliberately reported Ye Qiu for drunk driving and driving without a license.”
“What happened then?”
“I was also shocked.
When the traffic police came to check, Ye Qiu was fine.
The breathalyzer test showed he wasn’t drunk driving, and as for the driving license, Ye Qiu said you gave it to him this morning.”
“And what happened later?”
“Ye Qiu took me to see his new house at Peach Blossom Source Residential Area.
It’s very big and luxurious.”
Although Ye Qiu had previously discussed it with Zhao Ruxue, he hadn’t yet taken her to see it.
Unexpectedly, he took her sister there first.
Seeing Zhao Rubing animatedly talking about it with great excitement, and looking at the big lobster in front of her, Zhao Ruxue felt increasingly uncomfortable.
Yet, she couldn’t show it in front of her sister because she would not admit to having any relationship with Ye Qiu.
“Sis, the auction for car license plates this afternoon was even more fun.”
Zhao Ruxue naturally knew about the auction for the car plates; it was she who had told Ye Qiu about it and had registered and paid the auction fee for him.
“I secured that license plate, Jiang A99099, for Ye Qiu.
Do you know how much it was?”
Zhao Rubing asked.
“How much?”
In Zhao Ruxue’s eyes, it would be at most two to three million and, even at that, she felt it was rather pricey.
“Almost twenty million, nineteen million eight hundred thousand!”
“What?”
The large lobster in Zhao Ruxue’s hands instantly fell.
A car plate costing nearly twenty million was truly wasteful.
Had she known, she wouldn’t have let Ye Qiu participate in such an auction.
Of course, she knew that the price couldn’t have soared that high without reason.
“It was again that Ning family’s kid causing trouble.
He deliberately inflated the price, trapping Ye Qiu.”
Zhao Rubing revealed this, and Zhao Ruxue learned of it then.
However, she felt that if it weren’t for Zhao Rubing carelessly following the price hikes, such a scenario wouldn’t have happened.
After finishing the topic of the auction for the car plate, Zhao Rubing also mentioned that Ye Qiu took her to a seafood restaurant in Jinling, and they brought back the two large lobsters they hadn’t finished.
“Sis, I’m tired; I’m going to take a bath and rest.”
Having been out all day with Ye Qiu, Zhao Rubing was quite tired.
Although she had had a lot of fun, she now needed to take a bath and rest.
Watching her sister, and thinking that Ye Qiu spent twenty million on a car plate, Zhao Ruxue was at a loss for words, and for some reason, she felt an even stronger sour taste in her heart.
