A group of people have left the restaurant, so there are not many people here now.

Zhao Yong asked generously, "What dishes are there?"

"There's also pork, chicken, and fish. Oh, and today we have braised beef in soy sauce."

The waiter took down the wooden sign hanging on the wall that had the words lamb and a few other sold-out dishes on it, and said, "You can choose what to eat."

Zhao Yong waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, eat anything you want."

Jiang Tingxia gritted her teeth in hatred. How could this person speak so casually? Who is his brother's sister-in-law?

She turned her face away and said nothing.

Li Changpu stood in front of Zhao Yong, just blocking Jiang Tingxia's cold face. He patted Zhao Yong on the shoulder and said, "Old Zhao, you order."

Zhao Yong didn't see the angry Jiang Tingxia, and didn't know anything. He just smiled and said, "Okay, I'll order first. If you're not satisfied, you two can add more."

Then he began to order arrogantly, "I want the braised beef you mentioned, and also the braised pork, catfish and eggplant, four-joy meatballs, spinach and fungus salad, fried tofu and vermicelli soup, and three bowls of rice."

When the waiter calculated the bill, the meal would cost four dollars and fifty cents, not including food coupons.

It is quite a luxury for three people to eat six dishes. Who would dare to order so much normally?

In fact, Zhao Yong ordered a few more dishes on purpose, and specifically chose meat dishes and non-vegetarian dishes. He thought, but his leader told him to order as much as he wanted, so he had to have a big meal. But it was not mainly for this reason. What kind of person would he be if he did that? The most important reason was that this was a big deal to save face for his brother. He was so generous with a few big dishes to shock the girl and let her see that if she followed my brother in the future, she would live such a good life.

Jiang Tingxia had no idea what he was thinking. She observed the surroundings, the peeling walls, the bumpy ground. She sat there feeling uncomfortable as if ants were crawling on her body.

Li Changpu and Zhao Yong sat together on the bench opposite Jiang Tingxia, and Zhao Yong didn't urge him to sit over there. After all, they would be married in the future and would have plenty of time to spend together. There was no need to rush. Seeing that the two of them were too shy to speak, it would be worse if he urged them too hastily.

There weren't many customers, so they started serving the dishes soon. The waiter first brought the cold dishes to the table, "Beef in soy sauce, the cold dishes are for your table."

Zhao Yong winked at Li Changpu, then looked at the chopsticks on the table and then at Jiang Tingxia, meaning, "Pass the chopsticks to the girl."

Li Changpu simply pushed the chopstick basket next to Jiang Tingxia and said, "Eat."

Even though Jiang Tingxia felt uncomfortable, she still took out two chopsticks and said thank you. She picked up a few grains of white rice and brought them to her mouth and pretended to eat them, but actually didn't put them into her mouth.

Zhao Yong and Li Changpu ate with relish. They had come out early in the morning to pick someone up and were already hungry. In addition, their long period of military life had developed a sense of speed in them, so they had to eat quickly. They gobbled up the food in no time. Looking at the way they ate, Jiang Tingxia frowned.

Like a pig.

Zhao Yong wiped the oil off his mouth, feeling that he was a little too absorbed in eating, and said embarrassedly, "Try this braised pork, eat it with rice, it's delicious.

“Especially if you eat it in big bites, it will be even more delicious.”

Jiang Tingxia frowned as he looked at the fat meat dripping with oil, "I don't want to eat it anymore."

Zhao Yong thought, maybe the girl is too shy to eat meat? Why doesn't Old Li take care of her? He saw that Li Changpu was busy eating and didn't even look at his girlfriend. Zhao Yong thought, fortunately the leader helped him find a matchmaker, otherwise he would never have a wife in his life.

At this time, Zhao Yong saw the waiter coming over with a large bowl, and he said, "Then have some soup."

Jiang Tingxia took a look and saw that the waiter's thumb was in the soup bowl. She was so scared that she quickly refused, "Don't worry about me, just eat by yourselves."

Seeing Li Changpu and Zhao Yong drinking soup, she thought of the waiter's greasy thumb and felt retching inside.

Jiang Tingxia never picked up his chopsticks again.

Most of the food on the table had been eaten, with only two meatballs, a small plate of braised beef in soy sauce, and five or six pieces of braised pork left. There was also the fish belly with the most meat left, and a small half plate of vegetarian dishes left on the edge of the plate. Since she said she didn't want the soup, no soup was left for her.

In fact, both of them could still eat more, but they were afraid that Jiang Tingxia would not have enough, so they did not touch those pieces. Unexpectedly, she did not eat them either, so they were left over in the end.

The two noticed that her bowl was still full of rice, and Li Changpu, who had been silent, asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Jiang Tingxia didn't even look at him, "No."

Li Changpu picked at the last few grains of rice in the bowl and said, "Then eat more."

Jiang Tingxia thought, why do you care about me? She said unhappily, "I'm full."

Seemingly not minding her tone, he still said, "Don't waste it."

Jiang Tingxia listened to him talk so much and realized it was because of this: he felt sorry for the money!

She took the money and ticket out of her pocket and put them on the table. "I'll pay for it myself."

She stared at Li Changpu's face, "Now, can I not eat?"

Suddenly, the eyes of Li Changpu, who had been silent all this time, became sharp, like a dagger emitting cold light, terrifying. Jiang Tingxia subconsciously dodged backwards.

She had never seen such a terrifying man. Her former classmates and friends were all well-read, gentle and polite gentlemen. She had never seen such a killer who was full of murderous aura and had a pair of eyes that could scare people to the point of limp legs.

Li Changpu said nothing, reached out and took her bowl, then picked up a large chopstick of rice and put it into his mouth.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Tingxia felt anxious and angry, her face flushed red, but she dared not say anything due to his overwhelming aura. She cursed in her heart, thinking that if he was not full, he could just order another bowl. He had already eaten that, so it was his fault. They were not married yet. Besides, it would not work even if they were married. She would feel uncomfortable.

Li Changpu didn't eat any vegetables either. He scooped up the rice in the bowl with chopsticks. Soon, a large bowl of rice was gone, without leaving a single grain. The bowl was so clean that it could reflect light.

"Lao Zhao, there are lunch boxes in the car, pack these up."

Li Changpu was talking about the leftovers on the table.

When Zhao Yong heard this, he went out to get his lunch box.

Jiang Tingxia raised her hand and called the waiter, "Check out."

Just as she was about to give the money to the waiter, a pair of big hands pressed the money on the table. Li Changpu said in a muffled voice, "You don't have to pay."

He took out some extra money and tickets from his pocket and handed them to the waiter. After he settled the bill, he said to Jiang Tingxia, "Put your money away."

Jiang Tingxia didn't want to say a word to this fierce man. She chose to put the money back in her pocket and not argue with him.

Zhao Yong came back with the lunch box. He carefully poured all the food on the plate into the lunch box without wasting any of it. He treated it as if it were a treasure.

Jiang Tingxia looked at the sticky food and thought, how can I eat this?

Zhao Yong packed up and was about to pay the bill, but Li Changpu said, "I've already paid, let's go."

"Ah, Lao Li, didn't we agree on this yesterday? Why are you rushing to pay the bill?"

Yesterday, he, Li Changpu and his old leader discussed the matter of picking up the bride for several hours. Why didn't he go as agreed?

Li Changpu said indifferently, "It doesn't matter who gives it."

Zhao Yong stuffed the money and bills into Li Changpu's pocket and said, "Then go back and return the money to the chief."
