Although it was already very late.
There were still quite a few reporters and influencers gathered at the school gate.
Of course, they were all there for Shen Qiushan.
However, Lin Xiamo’s car was parked in the school’s parking lot, and they drove out of the school without anyone noticing.
"What do you three want to eat?"
After escaping the reporters’ encirclent, Shen Qiushan, sitting in the passenger seat, turned to ask the three children in the back seat.
"Barbecue!"
"Hotpot!"
Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao, the siblings, responded almost simultaneously but gave different answers.
"Pipa, you decide."
Shen Qiushan asked Xu Pipa, who hadn’t spoken.
"I..."
Xu Pipa initially wanted to say anything was fine, but Shen Yanran, who was hugging her waist, gently pinched her slender waist and winked at her.
"Barbecue, then."
Xu Pipa replied softly.
Shen Yanran imdiately bead, "Two to one!"
"Barbecue it is!"
Shen Yixiao pouted gloomily, muttering under his breath, "Pipa, can’t you stop siding with Shen Yanran next ti!"
"What do you an by siding!"
Shen Yanran retorted, "We just think alike."
"No, it should be that we ’noble won’ think alike!"
Shen Yixiao leaned his head against the car window, giving up his resistance.
As the provincial capital, Sanjiang City’s nightlife was still rather vibrant.
At ten o’clock, most restaurants hadn’t closed yet, and Lin Xiamo parked outside a restaurant called "Jiangshan Barbecue."
The restaurant had a good reputation and luxurious decor. Although it was a bit pricey, it was known for its genuine quality.
The five of them sat at a table for six.
The three children sat on one side, while Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo sat on the other.
Xu Pipa was unfamiliar with such a dining environnt and instinctively shrank into herself, her small hands showing only halfway out of her school uniform sleeves. When Shen Yanran told her to look at the nu, she only glanced at it briefly before being too startled by the prices to speak up.
Secret Recipe Steak 138 yuan
Signature Beef Ribs 118 yuan
Even ordinary "Fatty Beef" cost 88 yuan!
Seeing the nu prices, Shen Yanran was also secretly taken aback; this restaurant was twice as expensive as ordinary barbecue places.
"Second Aunt, isn’t this too expensive?"
Shen Yanran said softly, instinctively thinking that their snack tonight would still be on her second aunt’s tab.
"No worries, your dad’s paying!"
Lin Xiamo replied casually.
"Huh?"
Shen Yanran looked at her dad in astonishnt. Clearly, this restaurant’s pricing was beyond what her dad could normally afford.
Shen Yixiao was even more dramatic, "Dad, are we going to be broke after this al?"
Shen Qiushan waved his hand nonchalantly, "Stop talking nonsense. Order whatever you want."
"Your old man has struck it rich!"
"Huh?"
"Is that true?"
Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao both stared wide-eyed, full of shock as they looked at their dad.
"Anyway, we’re much better off financially than before."
"Go ahead and order, let’s eat and head ho early!"
Shen Qiushan didn’t elaborate further nor disclose how much he had earned, fearing it would dampen the children’s motivation to strive.
Focusing on "catching opportunities!"
With only one month left until the college entrance exam, it was in their final sprint, so he wanted to prevent them from being affected by external factors.
And Lin Xiamo knew that Shen Qiushan had made a lot of money because "I Really Didn’t Want to Reincarnate" was on sale, with the first order surpassing 50,000!
Although she didn’t know exactly how much that ant financially, she was following the book and keeping an eye on the fan rankings. She knew the reader rewards alone amounted to 250,000 to 260,000!
There were even five "Silver Alliance" fans on the leaderboard!
Just those five alone contributed 50,000 yuan in rewards.
So, without any qualms, she brought everyone to this barbecue restaurant.
For Shen Qiushan now, spending 1,000 yuan on a al was manageable.
Seeing that their dad had spoken, Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao did not ask further but were still sowhat restrained when ordering, wanting to save their dad so money.
One advantage of such high-end restaurants is that the photos turn out well. Once the dishes were served, Shen Yanran used her second aunt Lin Xiamo’s phone to take a couple of family photos of the five of them.
And then had a couple of "sister" selfies with Xu Pipa.
"Shen Yanran, stop taking pictures, we’re starving!"
Seeing Shen Yanran snapping away endlessly, an impatient Shen Yixiao used iron tongs to place a piece of at on the barbecue grill.
The grease from the at dripped onto the charcoal below, sparking a fla and followed by the sizzling sound of barbecue.
Xu Pipa propped her chin with one hand, watching the spark flare up montarily, only to extinguish quickly, much like the legendary epheral flower, blossoming brilliantly and wilting swiftly!
It was a scene that repeated countless tis daily in this barbecue restaurant, but Xu Pipa was witnessing it for the first ti!
And it was naturally her first ti sitting in such a lavishly decorated restaurant.
Her eyes instinctively fell on Shen Qiushan, sitting opposite. Ever since she t "Uncle Shen," her dim life had gradually taken on a splash of color.
In the future, when she earns money, she also wants to treat Uncle Shen to a sumptuous al!
Xu Pipa thought silently in her heart, and at that mont, Shen Qiushan placed a piece of grilled beef on her plate, "Pipa, eat more; you’re still too skinny!"
"In critical tis, fat can save lives!"
Afterwards, Shen Qiushan placed another piece of at on Lin Xiamo’s plate, "You too, you’re too skinny!"
Lin Xiamo was 170 cm tall yet weighed less than 100 pounds. Although she was well-endowed in certain areas, overall, she was still quite thin.
