C693 Fan Bin Was Helpless
Fann Binn saw her expression and immediately stepped on the brakes. He said with an apologetic tone, "Lingling? Are you alright? I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something and forgot about you..."
Xu Ling forced a smile and shook her head," As long as you feel more comfortable in your heart, I will also be happy... "
"Sigh..." Fann Binn parked the car by the side. He turned on a double jump light and leaned back on the seat and sighed deeply. After a while, he slowly said, "Xu Ling... Do you think I am a cold-blooded man?"
"No, the Fann Binn I know is a man who dares to do anything. A good man who can hold up the heavens and support the earth." Xu Ling said firmly, "Fann Binn, of course you are not wrong. Hsu Rann was not wrong either. You just did not reach an agreement with each other. Because of her family. This was not what she wanted. It was the result of being forced into a corner. Family love was very great. The same blood flowed in her body. This was a feeling that could not be ignored. Fann Binn, I hope you can understand Hsu Rann's feelings. Don't be too angry with her..."
" I'm not angry with her. I'm afraid she might hate me now. " Fann Binn smiled bitterly and said, "I won't hide it from you, Lingling. Actually, Hsu Rann and I really have a kind of relationship that we can't abandon. She and I narrowly escaped death. We struggled to survive together. This kind of relationship is not something that ordinary people can understand. But today, for the company, for the foundation that they had built up, I must be ruthless to Hsu Rann. If there are no rules, there will be no boundaries. No matter who makes a mistake, they must be punished. Of course, I am not an exception. "
Xu Ling nodded and smiled, "We don't want these unhappy things anymore, okay? Anyway, you've already done what you needed to do. It's getting late now. How about this, I'll drink with you to relieve the boredom and relax?"
"Have a drink?" Fann Binn smiled bitterly and said, "I'm driving. Besides, we're at the edge of the suburbs. Where can we find a place to drink?"
"We can park the car here." Xu Ling seemed to have recovered some color. She smiled and said. " I remember there was a restaurant street in front of us. It was discovered when my parents brought them to the wetlands nearby when they came to Jiangde to play. The dishes are not bad. Our Boss Fan wouldn't be unwilling to follow your little secretary to eat at the roadside stall, would he? "
" Look at you. Be careful not to spank your butt! " Fann Binn smiled and glared at Xu Ling. However, he was slightly touched in his heart. The reason why this little girl wanted to drag him to a roadside stall was most likely because she was afraid that he would not be able to vent the grievance and dissatisfaction in his heart. If he continued to race, he was afraid that there would be danger.
"Alright, isn't it just the roadside stall? Let me tell you, when our family was poor in the past, my favorite food was the claypot on the roadside stall."
"A casserole? We have one here too. Let's go, I'll bring you to eat!" Xu Ling excitedly opened the car door and landed on the grass beside the suburbs road. She didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Since the beautiful secretary had gotten off the car, it was obviously impossible for Fann Binn not to follow. He also got out of the car. After locking the car, he accompanied Xu Ling to the restaurant street she was talking about.
This was the intersection between the city and the suburbs. There were still a lot of people here, and the houses were also more densely packed. However, whether it was the quality of the houses or the surrounding environment, they were obviously not comparable to the urban area.
Originally, this place was very desolate. It was because the Jiangde wetland was built more than a year ago, and because of the tourists, the development of the nearby villages and towns had developed to the current scale.
It was not that Fann Binn was a little pretentious, but the environment here was a little harsh. The rubbish and unpleasant smell that could be seen everywhere made him wonder if the roadside stalls could be eaten.
However, it was still alright. As they walked deeper into the town, the environment became much better. At the very least, the surroundings were a little like the smell of the town center.
Looking at the bustling crowd, Xu Ling smiled at Fann Binn as she walked. “ Director Fan, there are a lot of snacks here that you might not have tasted before. I remember eating candied fruits the last time I came here. The taste is no different from those in Beijing. "
Fann Binn smiled speechlessly. "I didn't expect that you wouldn't be afraid of dirt. Do you like to eat snacks by the roadside?"
"Dirty? I've never been afraid, because I've been a villager since I was young... It's just that I've been living in a big city since then. Actually, I still like the countryside. It's not as depressing as the city. It's so constrained." Xu Ling seemed to have noticed something as she pointed forward. “ Yes, that's the street of a snack restaurant. Let's go. "
Fann Binn followed Xu Ling's gaze and looked towards the west side of the town center. There was a bustling street, and every shop on the street had its name written at the end of the street. What West Wind restaurant? So we can come to the restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant, Luo Ma restaurant. It was simply too busy.
Wait a minute! Just as Fann Binn casually glanced at the rows of shops, he suddenly froze on the spot. He suddenly came back to his senses and muttered, "Mother Luo Restaurant? This name sounds familiar."
"Fann Binn? What's wrong?" Xu Ling took a few steps forward, but soon found Fann Binn had stopped and looked at him curiously.
"Nothing... nothing." Soon, Fann Binn couldn't help but laugh. He had already thought of how Luo Ma Restaurant felt familiar. Didn't Li Tong Tong's mother, Aunt Li, also open a restaurant called Luo Ma Restaurant? When he thought of Aunt Li and Li Tong Tong, he couldn't help but feel nostalgic. Two years passed in the blink of an eye. He didn't know how the mother and daughter's restaurant was doing.
There were a lot of people moving around, but those who paid attention to Fann Binn and Xu Ling would usually carefully and consciously separate from them. It was not because Fann Binn was too domineering, but because Xu Ling's office lady outfit was too out of place in this rural town.
When Fann Binn woke up from his thoughts, he found Xu Ling standing where she was and being watched by so many people. He was obviously embarrassed, so he couldn't help but hold Xu Ling's hand and smile. “ Let's go to that Luo Ma restaurant and have a good drink!"
Xu Ling had long wanted to leave the streets filled with people. When she heard Fann Binn's words, she hurriedly ran towards the food and snacks street in her high heels. Under her guidance and lead, Fann Binn arrived at Luo Ma's restaurant not long after.
This so-called Luo Ma restaurant was a two-story building. It looked simple and unadorned. It was estimated that the house had been there for some time. It was true that the business in this restaurant was quite good. At least Fann Binn looked into the shop and saw that it was filled with people. There was a young male waiter in an ancient robe with some pockmarks on his face walking around the dining table with three or four plates. He swiftly placed the plates of dishes on the table of the customers.
"Waiter, are there any more seats? The two of us want a private room." Xu Ling first walked into the restaurant and asked the waiter who was busy serving the dishes.
The waiter wiped his sweat and turned around to reply. He didn't know that it was because of Xu Ling's beauty that he was stunned. Or was it because Xu Ling's professional attire made him feel strange? In short, he only reacted after a while. He smiled and said, "Miss, I'm really sorry. The second floor was booked by someone today. How about you just sit down in the main hall? "
Xu Ling frowned and was obviously not very satisfied. There were people and tables everywhere in the main hall, making a lot of noise. The wine must not have been very good. Without a private room, how could a delicate and beautiful woman like her be in the mood to drink?
"Waiter, your business is so good? The entire second floor is booked?" Fann Binn really did not believe it. You said that most of the people in the suburbs were poor. Who is so rich that they run to private rooms every day? This hall wasn't even full yet, but the private rooms were already packed with people? It was really a little puzzling.
"Sir, you don't understand what I mean. I mean... The second floor was booked, but the second floor was full. Hey, what kind of people are there? There are only seven or eight people at a table! " The waiter seemed to be a little angry, and as he spoke, he turned around and wanted to leave. However, Fann Binn grabbed his shoulder.
"Since there is only one table on the second floor, why not give us one of the other rooms?" Fann Binn looked at the waiter and said, "Could it be that the person at that table booked all the rooms on the second floor?"
The waiter looked at Fann Binn and the helplessness and resentment in his eyes became stronger. However, he still nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes. It was reserved by the person at the table. Even if it wasn't reserved, you wouldn't care. Sir, if you want to eat, you can only eat on the first floor. If you don't want to eat, then find another place. "
"Hey, what's with your attitude as a waiter? Who forced a guest to leave?" Xu Ling was a little unhappy when she heard the waiter's impatient voice. She directly retorted. “ I don't ask how to fix the seats. Why don't you just say it clearly? Why is your attitude so bad? "
"I say, Miss, please spare me. I still have a lot of things to do. There are only two or three people working in the whole shop. If you keep me here, I won't be able to do business in the shop! " The waiter said helplessly to Xu Ling, "If you have any objections, you can ask our Lady Boss. Don't stop me from doing business."
Xu Ling was still angry. She immediately nodded and said, "Okay, where's your Lady Boss? Call your Lady Boss out!"
"Our Lady Boss isn't free. She's upstairs dealing with those freeloading fellows. She doesn't have the time to care about you!" The waiter sized Xu Ling up a few times and muttered in a low voice. "She looks quite pretty, but her temper is a little bad. So what if she's pretty? I've never seen our Lady Boss's daughter act so pretentiously."
When Fann Binn heard the waiter's words, he almost burst out laughing. It turned out that this kid really dared to say that. Didn't he know that offending a woman, especially a beautiful woman, would result in serious consequences?
"You... How can you say that? Did I say that I'm amazing? Wait a moment, speak clearly before you leave! "Xu Lingqi's small mouth bulged as she stomped her feet. Her hands were on her hips as she spoke to the waiter who was about to leave. “ Have you ever heard that a customer is God? A waiter like you is not qualified! Take me to your Lady Boss. I must report this to her!"
The male waiter got impatient and said, "I say, why are you so unreasonable? I said that the Lady Boss is busy, and so am I. I don't have time for you! "
"Busy? Alright, then I'll go and see how busy she is!" The flustered Xu Ling rushed straight up the stairs without saying another word and went to look for the Lady Boss upstairs.
