Chapter 241

Ding Xiang Lou dishes exquisite, in the capital of the many restaurants is also second to none Ling fifth master to the capital, went to a lot of famous restaurants, Ding Xiang Lou or the first back

The restaurant staff was smartly introducing the restaurant’s specialties, and Master Ling said with great bravado, “No need to introduce it again

Serve all the signature dishes of your restaurant”

The fellow was busy nodding and smiling as he answered, and quickly retreated

Soon, hot tea and snacks and cold dishes were served

Ling Xiao watched with great interest, taking a small piece of pastry with his hand and sending it into his mouth, eating it with great relish

Ling Jingshu watched from the sidelines and suddenly also felt hungry: “Ah Xiao, are these pastries really delicious?”

Ling Xiao winks and smiles, “In the past when I ate dim sum, it was always you who used chopsticks to pick it up and bring it to my mouth

Today it’s me doing it myself, so of course the taste is different”

Since his eyesight was restored, Ling Xiao’s disposition has become more and more cheerful

Ling Jingshu looks at Ling Xiao’s lively demeanor and with indescribable joy in her heart, she also picks up a piece of pastry and sends it into her mouth

Sweet but not greasy, delicate texture, really very tastyCousin Yan, this pastry tastes very good, come and try it too”

Ling Jingshu said with a smile, and then politely and courteously looked at Zhang Jian, “I wonder if Mr Zhang likes pastries?

There is no harm in tasting a piece”

Ling Jingyan and Zhang Jian were talking back and forth, and they were talking about their hunger and dry mouths, so when they heard this, they nonchalantly ate a piece of pastry and drank a cup of hot tea

Eating looks had nothing to do with the word “gentle”

In contrast, Zhang Jian is much more reserved

He savored the pastries in a unhurried manner

He also spoke to Ling Jingshu in a gentle and courteous manner

Pretentious!

Pretending!

Ling Jingshu glanced at Zhang Jian, and she couldn’t get enough of him

In fact, she was usually quite capable of putting on airs in front of strangers

She smiles without showing her teeth and walks without showing her feet

Gentle and skillful, very decent

But to this Zhang Jian, who had only been acquainted with her for half a day, she didn’t even have the slightest interest in pretending to be a lady

She even thought in a bad way that she would have to behave rudely and savagely, and it would be best if she would make Zhang Jian angry and run away

Soon, the dishes came up

Ling Fifth Master specially ordered two pots of wine, Ling Xiao’s eye disease had not completely healed yet, so he should not drink alcohol

Zhang Jian was not shy about it

Taking the initiative, he raised his glass to toast

The two had a back and forth, drinking and chatting, the atmosphere was quite cordial

Ling Jingyan buried her head in her food and drink

She did not pay attention to Zhang Jian

Zhang Jian did glance at Ling Jingyan from time to time

Ling Jingshu watched and felt quite amused in her heart

This Zhang Jian, who had the cheek to rub this lunch together, was clearly a drunkard who had no intention of drinking!

One hour later

Ling Jingshu, Ling Jingyan and Ling Xiao had already eaten their fill

Sitting on the sidelines and chatting away the time

Master Ling Fifth and Zhang Jian had drunk a total of four pots of wine

Master Ling Fifth already had five or six points of drunkennessDrunkard Zhang Jian was not as drunk as Master Ling, and his face was already flushed

Master Ling was about to ask his staff to serve another pot of wine, but Ling Jingshu stopped him in time, “Father, I think Mr Zhang has already had too much to drink

If he keeps drinking, he won’t even be able to ride a horse

It’s better to stop drinking!”

Zhang Jian grabbed and responded, “I, I, I’m not drunk, it’s fine to drink two more pots of both, both, both”

The crowd wanted to laugh but were embarrassed, and it was quite hard to hold back

Ling Jingyan didn’t have so many scruples and teased with a smile, “You, you, you’re really not drunk?

Then what’s with the stuttering, stuttering, stuttering?”

Zhang Jian: ” “Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao finally couldn’t help themselves

They let out a giggle

Only then did Ling Fifth Master notice that Zhang Jian was already red-faced and lax in his gaze, and that he was bound to get drunk if he drank any more

He couldn’t help but laugh dumbly: “That’s just it

Today’s drinking has been very enjoyable, and it’s really not advisable to drink any more

This is dispersed!

Let’s get together again some other day”

Zhang Jian immediately responded, “Good, in a few days, I will definitely go to the Ling Mansion to pay a visit to Fifth Master Ling”

Fifth Master Ling: ” “Everyone: ” “Just now, Zhang Jian still looked drunk, but his feelings were wasn’t drunk at all!

Climbed up along the pole

Ling Jingshu wanted to laugh but held back

Ling Jingyan stared in surprise, as if she was seeing Zhang Jian for the first time

Ling Fifth Master cleared his throat and said, “Then I’ll be waiting for Mr Zhang at the Ling Mansion”

Zhang Jian immediately smiled and arched his hand, “Then it’s a deal”How could there be such a brazen person in the world!”

After paying the bill, the crowd exited Ding Xiang Lou and went their separate ways

Ling Jingyan finally had a chance to express her indignation: “I just talked too much, and he’s going to rely on me?

He has already invited him for lunch, but he actually doesn’t know enough and still wants to come to our Ling Mansion for dinner and drinks

How thick-skinned is this!”

Listening to Ling Jingyan’s amusing remarks, Ling Xiao laughs happily, “Cousin Yan, it’s not as exaggerated as you make it out to be

I think that Mr Zhang is frank in nature, speaks with a sense of humor and is easy and pleasant to get along with, and is a friend worth coming and going with”

Ling Jingyan wrinkled her nose at Ling Xiao, “What worthy friend

Don’t be fooled by him!

He’s simply a thick-faced, black-hearted dabbler!”

Ling Jingshu lost her smile, “Cousin Yan, he’s also the son of a Minister of Justice’s family

How could he be greedy for food and drink when he is well-fed and pampered?

You are prejudiced against him

Looking at it from a different perspective, in fact, such a person is quite good to get along with”Hey, hey, hey, hey, why are you being fooled too”

Seeing that both of their siblings spoke in favor of Zhang Jian, Ling Jingyan was very dissatisfied in her heart, “Are you still my good sister or not”

As soon as Ling Jingyan was in a hurry and got angry, her eyes opened up round and round, spinning round and round, not to mention how cute she was

Ling Jingshu intentionally teased her, “The two of us are good sisters, of course I’m toward you

However, Zhang Jian is a really nice person

In the future, when he comes to the door as a guest, you might as well spend more time with him and talk to him more, perhaps you’ll soon discover his good qualities and fall in love with him as well”How is this possible!”

Ling Jingyan retorted without thinking, “How could I develop a liking for him

This kind of joke is not funny at all”

This was not necessarily so!

Maybe, Zhang Jian was Ling Jingyan’s fated lover!

Ling Jingshu looked at Ling Jingyan with a smile and reminded meaningfully, “Cousin Yan, think about it

Zhang Jian insisted on following us to Ding Xiang Lou today, and opened his mouth to offer to come to our Ling family as a guest

What exactly is it for?”

What exactly is it for?

! Ling Jingyan was confused by the question, and Zhang Jian’s handsome and smiling face suddenly surfaced in her mind

Strange, she obviously had not looked at him squarely, how could she remember his appearance?

Even the bad smile at the corner of his lips was clearly remembered

Ling Jingyan immediately drove this thought out of her mind
