The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard -
Chapter 230: Self Criticism
Chapter 230: Chapter 230: Self Criticism
In the crowd, Wuu Yaodong, Tan Yaozong, and Yang Hao, along with a line of wealthy second-generation youths, had originally come for Shen Yan’er’s reputation.
However, she simply ignored them.
Disappointed, they slunk away, each looking like a fool who had just humiliated a monarch.
Especially Wuu Yaodong, he had just been full of himself trying to get to know Shen Yan’er.
Turns out her bodyguard pushed him away so hard that he rolled on the ground and even scraped his face.
His Armani suit was also smeared with dirt and dust.
Furious to the extreme, he got into his car, called up Tan Yaozong, Yang Hao, and a few other close friends to discuss a plan.
In Binhai City’s circle of the wealthy second generation, he was considered the leader.
The properties of the Wuu Family were on par with the Lin Family.
The Tan Family, the Yang Family, and the other rich second generations were all his lackeys.
In the room at the back of the house, after Shen Yan’er returned and closed the door, she asked her grandfather, "Grandfather, should we have Master An Taiyan come to take another look at this prescription?"
She felt a bit uneasy. Although she respected Long Fei, it didn’t mean she could completely trust him.
After all, it was something very valuable.
Long Fei had given it to them without hesitation and didn’t even ask for any compensation.
Old Master Shen shook his head, "No need, I believe in Brother Long’s words. If he was after money, this prescription would be suspicious. But he wants nothing in return, there’s no need to give us a fake prescription. Additionally, I looked at it carefully. The medicinal herbs listed indeed revitalize energy and promote blood circulation. They are even more precise than the energy-boosting medicines in our family’s inherited ’Medicine King’s Manual’."
Shen Yan’er happily said, "Then I will hurry to get the medicine for you. If it really works, I will make sure to thank him properly."
Old Master Shen chuckled, "Yan’er, I have never seen you be so polite to other boys?"
Shen Yan’er blushed, "Grandfather, what are you talking about! It’s perfectly normal for me to thank him for curing your illness, isn’t it?"
"Normal, very normal!"
Old Master Shen laughed loudly, he never liked to interfere in the affairs of the young.
Having lived to such an old age, he had a clear understanding of human nature.
He could see through who Long Fei was at a glance and felt at ease letting his granddaughter associate with him.
This would help her reach a higher level in the Ancient Martial Realm too. Although the Shen Family held a prominent position, their cultivation levels were quite ordinary in the Ancient Martial World.
In the Rolls-Royce, Lin Yingying turned her head to look at Long Fei, as they had sat in silence all the way.
Neither had spoken, and silence hung between them.
After passing a French restaurant, Lin Yingying suddenly called out to the driver, "Wait, pull over to stop!"
The driver signaled and pulled over to park the car.
"I’m hungry. Join me for something to eat!" Lin Yingying instructed Long Fei as she opened the car door and stepped out.
Long Fei followed her out, feeling genuinely hungry after a busy morning.
After closing the car door, Lin Yingying instructed the driver to return home and not to worry about her further.
Once the driver had left, she stepped along in her high heels, leading Long Fei into the restaurant with small steps.
They found an empty seat by the window and sat down.
Lin Yingying asked Long Fei, "I’m treating today, so you can order whatever you want freely."
Long Fei joked, "You should know I have a big appetite!"
Lin Yingying replied, "Go ahead and order. I can buy this entire restaurant if you can finish what you order."
"There’s no need for that!"
Long Fei clicked his tongue, thinking how these women all seemed to behave like tycoons, each one more extravagant than the other.
Just like Shen Yan’er who casually mentioned ten million, enough to give someone a fright.
He grabbed the menu, disregarding the formalities of Western cuisine, and ordered ten steaks to start, along with a serving of crawfish, a serving of snails, a serving of foie gras, and a serving of scallops as side dishes to the wine.
As for the wine, there was no Moutai, so he settled for a bottle of red wine instead.
He even emphasized it was from ’82, imitating the rich kids to show off.
No one knows exactly how much of this ’82 Lafite was produced, but it still hasn’t sold out to this day.
Lin Yingying clenched her little fists, amused by his antics, and thought to herself that this guy was definitely planning to fleece her for a meal.
It’s just that she wasn’t very good at ordering, other than the ’82 Lafite which was worth a bit of money, everything else was chump change.
If he really wanted to fleece her, the restaurant had foie gras, caviar, and even white truffles.
All these items were priced by the gram.
After Long Fei finished ordering, the waiter was sweating profusely and specifically asked, "Sir, are you sure you want to have all these?"
Long Fei asked, "What’s the matter, you don’t have them here?"
"Not at all!"
The waiter quickly shook her head and then turned to Lin Yingying, asking, "Miss, would you like to order anything?"
Lin Yingying shook her head, "No need, this is enough. Just bring me a fruit salad."
The waiter nodded, took the menu, and left.
She took a deliberate look at Long Fei, thinking to herself if this guy had just been released from prison, with such a hearty appetite.
The red wine was served, and the waiter aerated it before pouring a glass for each of them.
Curious, Long Fei asked, "Director Lin, what made you suddenly decide to treat me to a meal today?"
Lin Yingying reminded him again, "Call me Yingying!"
"Alright, Yingying!"
Long Fei took a sip of the wine.
Sweet and not as crisp as Moutai, it tasted almost like grape juice.
Lin Yingying swallowed her pride, as today he had given the Lin’s Group face, and she didn’t want to hold a grudge.
Earlier in the car, she had carefully considered her relationship with Long Fei.
Now, inviting Long Fei to dinner was just a way to have a heart-to-heart with him.
She swirled her wine glass and took a delicate sniff before sipping elegantly, a textbook example of how to drink wine.
Not like Long Fei at all, who was simply wasting the stuff.
"Long Fei, let’s have a calm and peaceful talk," she said.
She looked at Long Fei with a sincere attitude.
"Sure! I’ve always been very calm and composed," he said.
Long Fei wryly joked, finding it a bit hard to adjust to her sudden gentleness.
Lin Yingying smiled slightly and nodded, "I’ll criticize myself first. When we interacted in the past, I always had a condescending attitude and never considered your thoughts. I was used to ordering you around with my CEO identity, pressuring and forcing you. Now, I formally apologize to you. I hope the two of us can interact without barriers, just like friends."
Long Fei took another sip of wine and sized up Lin Yingying.
If it weren’t broad daylight, he might have thought Lin Yingying was possessed.
He asked bluntly, "Director Lin, if you have orders, just tell me! Whatever it is, I will help you, no need for this."
"Don’t call me Director Lin, I’ve said so much, but it’s like playing the lute to a cow!"
Lin Yingying’s voice rose slightly as she suddenly changed her tone.
Long Fei watched her blankly, thinking this was more like it!
Lin Yingying felt a bit embarrassed and gestured with her hand, "Calm, I’ll try to stay calm!"
Long Fei was confused by her behavior, not sure what she was really up to.
After the steak arrived, Lin Yingying also had a portion.
She liked her steak medium-rare, but this time she followed Long Fei and had a well-done one.
She realized that she was unconsciously adapting to this man.
In the past, this would have been unimaginable.
