The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 38 Returning to China

As the night fell, the brightly lit Wilshere Avenue looked extraordinarily beautiful, and there were crowds of people coming and going on the street.At this time, the nightlife in Hollywood has just begun.

"Ling Xiao, I just came out to have a meal together. Do you really want to come to this kind of place?" Gan Jing sat in the car and looked at Ling Xiao with some anxiety. She has been in the United States for three years, although she has also been there There are many places, but it is the first time to eat in such a high-end restaurant.

"It's okay." Ling Xiao patted Gan Jing's right hand lightly, and said in a low voice: "The recent business is good, and we can still afford such a dinner. Besides, since ours, I should also Take our relationship seriously."

"Get out! What nonsense are you talking about!" Gan Jing pinched Ling Xiao's arm vigorously, and she was still a little embarrassed to mention such a thing, especially it was her first time.

Although Gan Jing looks bright and generous on the outside, she is extremely conservative on the inside. When she first came to the United States, although she had a boyfriend, the two of them never did anything except hold hands and kiss.If Ling Xiao hadn't rescued Gan Jing from the extreme suffering she was about to face when she was in the most danger, Ling Xiao wouldn't have walked into her heart so quickly.

In fact, Ling Xiao also wanted to take advantage of others' danger. He came to Gan Jing's side when she was most disturbed, walked into her heart, and refused to leave again.

Today, there is only one status difference between the two, but the two have never talked about this kind of thing. It can even be said that the two have not yet established a formal boyfriend and girlfriend relationship.And tonight, what Ling Xiao wants to solve is this problem.

"Let's go!" Ling Xiao smiled gently at Gan Jing, then opened the car door and walked out, threw the key to the intern student in the restaurant on the side, walked to the door on the other side, opened the car door, stretched out his hand, and made a gesture A posture of supply.

Gan Jing bit his lower lip lightly, no longer hesitated, handed his left hand to Ling Xiao, and with a little force, stood up from the car.

What Ling Xiao drove this evening was not his own pickup truck, but a brand new Porsche. Of course, this car was rented by Ling Xiao. After all, if you come to this kind of place for dinner, you must never drive your own. Pickup, otherwise he will be laughed to death.

Gan Jing wore a light golden long dress tonight. With her delicate face and a string of white pearls around her neck, she looked extraordinarily dazzling.

Mezzalu Restaurant is one of the top restaurants in Beverly Hills. Most of the people who come and go here are middle- and upper-class celebrities. You can often see some big and small stars coming and going here, so there are often some tabloid reporters outside the restaurant. The camera kept shooting.

When Gan Jing got out of the car, he was immediately spotted by several sharp-eyed reporters. After a few exclamations, there was the sound of "cracking" cameras.

Immediately afterwards, other reporters also noticed the strangeness here, and subconsciously took pictures. The dazzling flash made Gan Jing subconsciously cover his eyes.

At this time, the reporters discovered that the person who came was neither a Hollywood star nor a socialite in Los Angeles. They quickly lost interest. A woman with no news value, no matter how beautiful she is, is not worthy of their attention. A few glances.

Seeing this scene, Gan Jing glanced at Ling Xiao, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.This extremely beautiful smile once again provoked several photographers to pick up their cameras and start taking pictures. There was even a man in a suit and leather collar walking towards this side.

Ling Xiao was not interested in dealing with this kind of manager guy, he stretched out his right arm, smiled and said to Gan Jing: "Let's go in!"

"En!" Gan Jing nodded lightly, took Ling Xiao's arm and walked into the restaurant.

"Miss, miss, wait a moment." The guy who looked like a manager kept yelling from behind, but he was just a few steps too slow, and he was blocked by the waiters in the restaurant.

"That man is really interesting!" Gan Jing couldn't help laughing, and looked back while holding Ling Xiao's arm.

Ling Xiao reported his name to the waiter at the front desk, and while the front desk was checking the order, he turned around and said to Gan Jing with a smile: "This kind of street brokers only have their own interests in mind. When they see a beautiful girl, Let’s just say that she has the potential to become a star, but she will give up when encountering slight setbacks later.”

"No way, he's not as bad as you said." Gan Jing said as he followed Ling Xiao and walked towards the dining table behind the waiter.

"Let's put it this way." Ling Xiao watched the waiter pull away the chair for Gan Jing to sit down, and then he sat down and said, "A truly capable agent would not stand on the street looking for someone. Show up outside They are all people with little energy, and in the future, they will either hand over their customers to others, or just abandon them directly, do we hear less of this kind of thing?"

Many of Ling Xiao's clients are Hollywood stars, and they have heard this kind of thing not once or twice.

"Hmm!" Gan Jing bit his lower lip, nodded slightly, reached out to take the menu, and looked at it, the previous matter had been left behind.

After ordering, Ling Xiao ordered another bottle of 98 Bordeaux Senor dry red wine, and while the appetizers were served, he said to Gan Jing: "Gan Jing, the summer vacation will start in a few days, this year you Do you want to stay in Los Angeles, or do you plan to go back to China?"

Ling Xiao has always wanted to ask this question. After all, Gan Jing has been admitted to the Caltech Los Angeles School of Art and Architecture as a doctoral student. If it is as fast as two years, he will be able to get a doctoral degree. Too big a question.

"I plan to go back this year, and I don't plan to go back in the next two years, and concentrate on finishing my studies." For some reason, Gan Jing said, his face darkened a little.

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiao reached out and gently held her right hand, asking with concern.

"I'm fine!" Gan Jing withdrew his hand and forced a smile on his face. At this time, the waiter had already brought the aperitif and appetizers, so Ling Xiao didn't ask any more questions.

This is a mixed platter with sliced ​​ham, olives, mushrooms, artichokes, etc. The color is colorful, it looks very attractive, it has a feeling of appetizing, and the taste is quite good good.

The first main course is a spaghetti. Small pieces of golden potatoes are piled on top of the slender noodles. The tempting aroma keeps coming to the nostrils. People can't help swallowing hard, and their appetite is great. open.

At this time, the waiter had already poured Ling Xiao out of the red wine. Ling Xiao raised his glass and touched Gan Jing lightly. He took a sip and let the sweet taste linger in his mouth. He opened his mouth and asked, "How long do you plan to return to China this time? If it takes too long, I'll close the pharmacy first. I can't take care of so many things alone."

"Hehe!" Feeling smiled lightly, looked at Ling Xiao and shook his head, and said, "Don't worry, I will stay in China for a month at most when I go back, and it won't make you feel too troublesome, and I won't immediately Just leave, at least until the end of June to be able to leave, and come back in August."

Ling Xiao knew that Gan Jing had seen through his little thoughts, so he smiled embarrassingly, and raised his wine glass again.

The second main meal is a good seven-year-old beef with a side dish made of vegetables and delicious red wine. Ling Xiao arranged this dinner well, at least Gan Jing seemed very happy .

"By the way, Qin Ming has already sent a reply to Officer Beckett's request to help with the investigation. Although some things have been found, it is still a dead end. I really don't want to see Catherine's disappointed expression." Ling Xiao couldn't help but sighed softly.
