951 Expensive
Ever since Yao Tang had returned, she didn’t have much contact with Yao Ran. She had only taken note about how the woman had become more subtle and quiet in the classroom. She didn’t know how she had been abandoned, and she couldn’t care any less.
She assumed that Yao Ran had changed. Now, she knew that this may be an almost impossible request. Yao Ran had been relying on others for years. Now that she did not have the Yao Family to back her up, it wasn’t surprising that she’d find someone else.
Yang Ming didn’t look at Yao Ran. Instead, he turned to Yao Tang. “Miss Yao used to be Yao Ran’s older sister, but now that the Yao Family had abandoned her. Do you think she doesn’t deserve to be here?”
It was just a meal! Just because he married Meng Ling doesn’t mean he now had no right to eat freely with anyone he liked. He gritted his teeth.
Yao Tang looked back at him before shaking her head. “It’s none of my business who you’re eating with. If it weren’t for Yao Ran greeting me first, I wouldn’t have spoken to you. I’ve never looked down on her—no matter what her status was.”
With that, she glanced over at Cheng Yan. “Come on. Let’s eat.”
He had no feelings for Yang Ming and Yao Ran. However, if they were to provoke her, he’d teach them a lesson of a lifetime.
After Yao Tang and Cheng Yan had left, Yao Ran gritted her teeth. Her bottom lip trembled in grievance as her eyes were red—bloodshot. Yang Ming couldn’t help but pity her.
“Let’s go.” He took her hand. “Since I was the one who brought you out to eat, there’s no reason for me to take you home without having dinner first.”
The waiter handed over the menu to them, and Yang Ming gave it to her. “Choose.”
Yao Ran slowly nodded. However, after seeing the price of all the dishes, her eyes widened. Even if she had eaten many delicacies in her life, she still found the prices on the menu to be very expensive. How could a single dish cost 1999 yuan? How could a basic set meal cost 5888 yuan?
Her hands were trembling, but she did her best to hide her anxiety.
“I just want a steak.” Yao Ran ordered the cheapest price on the menu. When Yang Ming took the menu, he slowly smiled and ordered a few more dishes, a bottle of wine, and a fruit plate. She took some time listening to the dishes, checking their prices on the menu. All of them totaled to 20,000 yuan!
Only after the waiter had left did she look up. “Brother Ming, why are the dishes here so expensive? Are they really that good?”
They were sitting right at the open. The peach blossom tree was right above them, showcasing a beautiful view of both the lake and the lawn. It was gorgeous, but how could it be worth this much?
Weren’t they the same to what they usually eat?
He sighed in his heart. Yao Ran was still too naive. However, upon thinking about how much she had taken care of him, he slowly explained, “The chefs have come all over the country, where you’re free to eat the most authentic dishes in the world.”
“Also, you don’t consume their food, but rather their other services. An ordinary person would look at the food, but you have to look about what else this place has to offer in contrast to its primary purpose.”
Even though Yang Ming was trying to hide it, Yao Ran still noticed the look of disdain in his eyes.
He still looked down on her.
Despite this, Yao Ran hid her true feelings and sat on Yang Ming’s lap. Her creamy arms slid around his neck. “You’re going to marry Sister Ming soon. We won’t be able to come out in the open like this.”
His heart softened.
On the other side of the restaurant, however, Cheng Yan handed over the menu to Yao Tang, who quickly ordered a few dishes.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten these dishes. I didn’t expect to be able to eat them in your restaurant.”
“Thank you for taking me here.”
