Jiang Chen gradually began to feel the butterfly effect caused by being a reborn person.
When she was with Lin Shirou before, she had never set any anniversary for them.
Except for his birthday.
But Jiang Chen didn't want to leave it at that. Birthdays are birthdays, anniversaries are anniversaries, and they can definitely spend them together.
It was getting late at this time. After entering November, the sun in Linjiang County began to hang above the horizon at around four o'clock.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of the park. Lin Shirou looked at Jiang Chen and said.
"You should still be spending time with your parents at night, so I won't disturb you too much."
"I'll take you back."
Lin Shirou smiled gently.
"Don't worry about me, you should go back to celebrate your birthday. I want to go alone."
Jiang Chen wanted to send him off, but she stood there without moving, with a smile on her face and didn't speak.
Once she decides on something, she will be so stubborn that she can't say anything about it.
Jiang Chen was also a little helpless.
But then I thought about it, when I fed her candied haws just now, although she resisted a little, at least she ate it obediently, right?
It shows that at least the relationship between the two is getting closer.
So after leaving the words "be careful", Jiang Chen left alone.
Lin Shirou looked at his back, stretched out her tongue and gently licked her lips. There was still a little sugar residue on them, probably from eating marshmallows just now.
"So sweet."
She murmured softly.
…
When he returned home in the evening, Lao Jiang was already dressed neatly, wearing black leather shoes, a black woolen coat, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Those who didn't know better thought he was a professor from a certain university.
"Dad...you are dressed like this..."
"Why don't you let your dad get dressed?"
Jiang Zhiwei looked in the mirror and said to himself that he looked really good. He looked elegant and easy-going, just like a gentle man.
As a truck driver, what Father Jiang envied most were the intellectuals who controlled the general trend of the world, so he was particularly interested in Jiang Chen's studies.
My own account is useless, but my son's account needs to be carefully taken care of.
"No...but you see, we just have a meal..." Jiang Chen said.
"This time dad will take you to a high-end restaurant. There are civilized people inside, so why don't you dress more appropriately?"
Jiang Zhiwei ignored Jiang Chen's words and tied his tie in front of the mirror, for fear of insulting his elegance.
"Just let your dad show off for once. He is finally willing to spend a lot of money to treat you to a meal. Doesn't that make the situation worse?"
Sun Yuhong also went against the norm, put on powder on her face and put on a thick windbreaker.
"Dad, where should we go to eat?" Jiang Chen asked after leaving the door.
"Take you to eat steak."
"Beef...steak..." Jiang Chen's lips trembled, and he secretly thought something was wrong.
No way, the ending point of everything in the world is not Han Yutong...
When Jiang Zhiwei saw Jiang Chen's hesitant expression, he thought his son had never seen the world. He immediately began to provide Jiang Chen with popular science and history knowledge after failing continuously in physics and mathematics.
"You won't understand at first glance. In the Middle Ages in Europe, only kings and nobles could enjoy this steak. Most people couldn't afford it."
"What's up, Lao Jiang, looking at you like this, you often eat steak outside, right?" Sun Yuhong had a kind smile on her face.
"This is all what the book says, the book..." Jiang Zhiwei immediately lost his momentum when he saw his wife's kind smile.
"Rake your ears..." Jiang Chen couldn't help but say when he saw this.
"Jiang Chen, what did you say about me just now?" Jiang Zhiwei asked with a frown.
"Love my wife!" Jiang Chen replied immediately.
"Hey, that's pretty much it. I am an authentic British gentleman. I treat ladies politely. I will learn from it in the future so that I won't suffer any disadvantages when I find a girl!"
Jiang Zhiwei immediately became proud when he heard this.
Jiang Chen could only hold back his laughter in his heart to avoid internal injuries.
The family of three arrived at the steakhouse. Looking at the familiar white bricks and oil paintings on the wall, Jiang Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Maybe it was because it was Sunday, but there were still many diners in the room. The waiters in white clothes and black trousers came and went frequently and were quite busy.
"Son, what kind of steak do you want to eat?"
"Let my dad order it. I think it's pretty much the same."
Jiang Chen thought of the medium-rare steak he ate last time. It tasted good and left a fragrant taste on his lips and teeth after one bite.
"Okay, I'll do it."
Father Jiang enthusiastically began to educate Jiang Chen and his son on the topic.
"Do you know that when foreigners eat steak, they are very particular about not eating it fully cooked. If it is fully cooked, the meat will lose its flavor. Do you know that?"
"That's nonsense. When I cook beef, it's always cooked, and I've never seen any customers complain that the beef is tasteless."
As an experienced chef, Sun Yuhong disdained such outsider comments.
"That's our Chinese way of making it. It's different from how foreigners make it. You'll understand after eating it for a while."
Father Jiang called the waiter over.
"gentlemen."
The waiter bowed and Jiang Chen looked at him and felt that he looked familiar.
This seems to be the same one that entertained him and Han Yutong last time.
"Three servings of this sirloin steak."
"Okay sir, how mature do you want it to be?"
"Eight points!"
The waiter was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He was about to say that the steak was not medium rare, but Jiang Chen said.
"Dad, I want to eat medium rare steak, eighty is a bit old."
"Is seven points too raw?" Dad Jiang asked.
"No, seven points is just right." Jiang Chen looked at the waiter and said.
"Give us three medium-rare portions!"
"Okay customer, please wait a moment."
The waiter turned and left, and after a while, he brought them bowls of lemonade.
"Look at how nice this hotel is. They even give us water."
Jiang Zhiwei looked at the lemon slices floating in the bowl and couldn't help but say.
"What's the matter? Our restaurant even serves barley tea, and I don't see you praising us."
Sun Yuhong sounded a little unhappy.
"I happen to be thirsty. Let me have a bowl first."
"Dad, this is..." Before Jiang Chen could finish speaking, Jiang Zhiwei finished the water in the bowl.
"Isn't this lemonade? It tastes pretty good." Jiang Zhiwei didn't understand his son's behavior.
Jiang Chen looked at Sun Yuhong who was also raising a bowl to drink water and said hurriedly.
"Mom, I'm a little thirsty. Give me your bowl too."
"Ah, okay."
Sun Yuhong was stunned. Although she was also a little thirsty, she would definitely consider her son first when she had water.
Jiang Chen had no choice but to drink up his own water and Sun Yuhong's water. After a while, the waiter brought over the lemonade for drinking, and was stunned when he saw three empty bowls.
He was somewhat impressed by the handsome young man in front of him.
After all, it is rare for a black gold VIP customer and her friends to fight over each other like two starving ghosts in the store.
"If you have enough water, just serve the steak in a moment."
"Okay sir." The waiter nodded and left with three empty bowls.
While the steak was being served, Sun Yuhong took out a safety buckle from her arms and said to Jiang Chen.
"Happy birthday, my child. This is a birthday gift for you. I wish my child a safe and smooth life."
"Your dad is treated to this steak meal, but he didn't bring a birthday gift." Jiang Zhiwei added on the side.
"You're a disgrace, you're talking nonsense!" Sun Yuhong rolled her eyes at Jiang Zhiwei and put the jade pendant around Jiang Chen's neck.
"My child, Mom has a question for you."
"Mom, tell me." Jiang Chen touched the jade pendant in his hand and felt it was warm and cool. It should be a good piece of jade.
"Which friend gave you the scarf you wore this afternoon?"
