Chapter 107 Western Food, Teaching
She couldn't help but chuckle and shake her head as she thought about it.
She opened the door and a gust of cool air blew in. A waiter in a neat suit walked out from the front desk, put his hands in front of him, and bent slightly. "Hello, do you have an appointment?"
"My last name is Tong, and Mr. Zhang ordered it."
"It's Miss Tong." The waiter understood immediately and took her inside without even checking.
They walked slowly inside. The lights in the restaurant were dim and the light sound of violins filled the room.
The people who come here to eat are all dressed neatly. Unlike the bustling atmosphere in the hot pot restaurant, it is very quiet here. People talk in low voices at most, and the waiters also adhere to the principle of silence and serve the food gently.
To be honest, Tong Yusui had never eaten Western food. She had been able to go to a big restaurant before because of Mu Xingzhou and his friends, but those people just liked to drink and eat meat, and chat lively. They didn't like the atmosphere in a Western restaurant.
Tong Yusui was taken to a private room, which was decorated in a very authentic Western style. On the clean wall hung an oil painting of a girl's heart, which looked very elegant.
He dropped the person off and left. Then a waiter brought water and the room became silent again.
Could it be that he and Min Liang have the same purpose?
Tong Yusui guessed and felt unconsciously conflicted.
In a world dominated by men, even though Tong Yusui is Hai Ye's adopted daughter, she always seems to be tacitly regarded as inferior. This feeling is actually very bad, but she is powerless to change the status quo.
Soon, people came.
He was not dressed formally. He came to the western restaurant wearing only an ordinary black short-sleeved overalls, revealing his muscular arms. He sat down and ordered to the waiter next to him, "Serve the food!"
Tong Yusui breathed a sigh of relief as he didn't have to order his own food.
Soon, the dishes were served in an orderly manner. After all the dishes were served, people dispersed. Tong Yusui looked at the main course steak and knife and fork in front of him.
Seeing this, Datou curled his lips in understanding, then naturally picked up the knife and fork.
It was surprising to see the sturdy and strong man pick up the knife and fork with such elegance. He held the fork in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, and with a slight force of his wrist, the steak was cut neatly into pieces.
Tong Yusui watched silently, then picked up his knife and fork and started cutting his steak.
It was her first time cutting, and she was a little unskilled. A creaking sound came from the quiet box, which was the sound of her cutting the steak.
She looked up at the opposite side and continued cutting.
Big Head had already picked up a piece and ate it elegantly, and seeing her continue cutting without any impact, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Finally, the steak was cut and Tong Yusui could finally enjoy the fruits of his labor.
She picked up a piece, put it in her mouth and took a light bite.
It was very novel. It was the first time she had eaten such tender beef. It was different from stewed beef or beef in hot pot. It was not as bad or delicious as she had imagined. In fact, she preferred to eat something with a little chili.
"How do you feel?" Big Head asked her with a smile.
Tong Yusui took another bite and saw that there was a lot left on his plate. He said, "It's a lot of effort."
"Hahaha." Seeing her true nature, Big Head couldn't help but laugh out loud, and nodded, "It's indeed a bit troublesome, but you can dislike it but you can't not know how to do it."
Tong Yusui looked up and looked at him questioningly. Why did it feel like he was teaching her?
Big Head pretended not to know and continued to teach him some table manners.
Western food is actually quite simple, but Chinese food is more complicated. Tong Yusui knows a little about these things, but not much.
Now she was sure that this person was teaching her.
Although I don’t know why, it would be a waste not to learn. Just like he said, you can dislike it but you must know how to do it.
Finally, a lunch was spent under his teaching. Tong Yusui ate some pasta or something while listening, but he seemed to have basically not eaten anything.
"Please eat something!" Tong Yusui asked softly.
Datou felt a little warm in his heart. He smiled and nodded, eating the steak in two or three bites. Seeing that she hadn't eaten the foie gras, he asked her, "Why don't you eat foie gras? Don't you like it?"
Tong Yusui stared at the small, delicate object in front of her for a second. Was it foie gras? She had no idea, thinking it was some kind of dessert. Seeing that it was the only portion on the table, she chose not to eat it.
"Try it and see if you like it."
Datou actually felt like raising a daughter, wanting to give her the best things and ensure that she knew nothing.
Tong Yusui clumsily picked up the fork and tried to pick up the foie gras. The foie gras was soft, and the exquisite meal was ruined. She was a little embarrassed and tried to finish everything on the plate.
Datou was a little annoyed, thinking he had made a mistake. He then said casually, "I'm not used to this Western food either. Why don't you eat something else with me after you finish eating?"
"Oh, okay." Tong Yusui nodded obediently. She looked at Datou again and ordered a small steak. With his body size, he would definitely not be full, so he actually didn't like Western food very much.
After thinking it through, she suddenly understood something. Without hesitation, she finished the foie gras in one bite, then put down her knife and fork, "I'm done."
"Then, let's go!"
Datou was laughing again. Actually, he didn't like to laugh so much before. Even in the eyes of his subordinates, he always had a serious image. Even in front of Hai Ye, he was very strict. But today, the smile on his lips never stopped, and his heart was full of satisfaction.
They found a small restaurant and had something to eat. Although Tong Yusui was not very full, he was not hungry either, so he did not eat any more.
Big Head ate with great relish, which was very different from the people who sat in a Western restaurant and elegantly shared a steak.
But he didn't care. He sat at the greasy table and quickly finished his bowl of noodles.
He did not leave after dinner, but took her to buy some things. Datou was very grateful to Qin Su. Qin Su played a big role in his relationship with Tong Yusui. At first, he found Qin Su annoying, but later he could not help asking Qin Su more about Tong Yusui's situation in school. That became the only touch of tenderness in his tense life.
Tong Yusui didn't understand what Datou meant until they arrived at Qin Su's door and heard their conversation.
"Hello, teacher."
Qin Su recognized his voice in just one second. In the past two years, she didn't know how many times she had called him and sent him WeChat messages. How could she not remember this voice? Even though he came now, Qin Su was still a little angry. In the past two years, he had not come to any parent-teacher meetings or moments of his child's growth.
"You finally decided to come and see your daughter."
Datou wasn't angry at all, and even felt happy after hearing the word "daughter". He bent down apologetically and handed the gift over, "Yes, you've taken so much trouble over the past two years."
Seeing that he admitted his mistake with a good attitude, Qin Su felt relieved. She took the people in and poured them some water.
Tong Yusui didn't say anything because she was a little confused. She was listening to him chatting with the teacher in a trance. She had a blank look on her face and her heart was in turmoil.
How did I become his daughter? Is he serious?
