Pushing Down the Male God - CH 52
“I don’t have a lot of time, so if it’s far away then there is no need.” Just when Wang Zhicheng thought that Lin Mengmeng would not agree, she nodded in agreement. With a sigh of relief, he knew that this woman had not really changed.
After a moment’s thought, Lin Mengmeng agreed to Wang Zhicheng’s invitation, wanting to see what he was really thinking so that she could be fully prepared.
Since Lin Mengmeng said there was not much time, Wang Zhicheng directly found a western restaurant in the mall.
As soon as the two sat down, a waiter came over with a menu, and Wang Zhicheng subconsciously reached out and took it.
Lin Mengmeng looked at Wang Zhicheng, whose habit became second nature, with a smile yet not a smile as her disdain for him deepened.
Wang Zhicheng opened the menu and was just about to order when he inadvertently saw Lin Mengmeng’s expression at this time. He then awkwardly thought of the purpose of inviting her to dinner so he pushed the menu in front of Lin Mengmeng and ‘in passing’ flipped over two pages of the menu.
“Take a look at what you like to eat and order it yourself.”
Lin Mengmeng looked down and immediately felt funny. The menu that Wang Zhicheng pushed to her ‘just happened to be’ the cheapest and most cost-effective set meals, each of which cost no more than a hundred yuan.
100 yuan ≈ 15 USD
It’s obvious that he didn’t want to spend more money, yet he still wants to leave a good reputation. Heh, where in the world is there such a good thing?
Under Wang Zhicheng’s pained gaze, Lin Mengmeng directly turned to the most expensive page on the menu, casually ordering a black pepper steak and five or six appetizers before looking at him. The smile on Wang Zhicheng’s face was almost completely stiff.
“I ordered, what do you want? Forget it, just get the same as me.”
Ignoring Wang Zhicheng’s increasingly ugly complexion, Lin Mengmeng added a few more appetizers and sides before handing the menu to the waiter.
“Okay, this will be all.”
Since the dishes ordered by Lin Mengmeng are the most expensive, the waiter will get a certain percentage of commission from the sales, so the restaurant waiter looked at her with incomparable enthusiasm.
“Yes, Miss, may I ask if you would like any alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages?” The waiter asked thoughtfully after reporting all the dishes ordered by Lin Mengmeng.
However, without waiting for Lin Mengmeng to speak, Wang Zhicheng eagerly responded, “Thank you, but we don’t need them for the time being.”
Glancing at Wang Zhicheng, whose face was already dark, Lin Mengmeng picked up her bag and stood up.
“Where are you going?” Wang Zhicheng asked.
Lin Mengmeng sneered, “Since some people don’t have the sincerity of treating people to dinner, then what am I still doing here for? Feeling distressed about your money? If that’s the case, I might as well not eat this meal to spare yourself, in case you blame me in turn.”
After speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave.
Wang Zhicheng flushed at Lin Mengmeng’s remarks, clenched his cell phone awkwardly, and received a contemptuous look from the waiter. He was more and more unhappy with Lin Mengmeng, but unfortunately, he couldn’t have a fit here.
Wang Zhicheng promptly stood up to block Lin Mengmeng from leaving and forced out a smile, ”Wife, let’s stop making trouble, okay? You see that you’re angry with my mother and that I didn’t immediately come to apologize to you? Besides, which families don’t have conflicts. Let my mother off this time and when I’m not here in the future, you can do as you please.”
Sure enough, when he said this, the waiter on the side immediately showed his understanding and sympathy. Looking at Lin Mengmeng as if he was looking at an insensible woman.
T/N: If I was the waiter, I think I’d be enjoying the show. On another note, thanks for reading!
