Liu Man agreed with Yu Zhan, and her eyes glowed even brighter, “Then, let’s add two bowls of fried rice. Today’s the last day of this year, and we need to have a full stomach to welco the new year.”
Before Cheng Sheng left, he kindly arranged for soone to pick up Liu Man from his special elevator, so how could he be stingy to provide Yu Zhan and Liu Man with an extra table, eating in the Quan Jing hotel, the surrounding environnt was is high-end, and the heating was sufficient. The ingredients were superb, and the view was wide — the special seat with a river view. You could see the Huangpu River and the Bund, which was a perfect date place. Those rich guys with rich cars who drive up girls may not be able to reserve such a good seat for dinner.
But Yu Zhan rejected his offer.
Yu Zhan asked He Lushen out, but he didn’t expect that He Lushen also brought a show-off Chengsheng. Probably because his parents passed away too early, Yu Zhan was very independent since he was a child, and he had so solitary relationships. The friends Yu Zhan made were those who were in his childhood, and they were still those who were now. He understood why He Lushen wanted him to get to know Cheng Sheng, but friendship could not be cultivated in a short while, and he didn’t want to owe Cheng Sheng too much favor.
Because there were only two guests, Liu Man and Yu Zhan, the skewers ca up quickly filled the table all at once. The fresh and tender at and vegetables were sprinkled with bright cooking oil and sprinkled with cumin and chili powder. The fragrant smoke in the cold air made people’s appetite.
Liu Man inhaled deeply to sll the food, took out her phone, and started taking photos.
Last ti she went to Ju Jiu Wu with Li Xiaoru and Wang Nina to eat a Japanese al, and she didn’t take pictures. But now she took a family portrait of the barbecue on this table that could be seen everywhere.
Liu Man uploaded the photo to Weibo with a ssage: “Sotis it’s simple, but it’s more suitable for you. I wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year.”
At the sa ti, she also sent that sa photo on WeChat with, “I wish everyone a happy New Year.”
On New Year’s Eve, Liu Man’s friends on WeChat began to post their reunion dinners in monts. So were luxurious, and so were ho-cooked, but they were all full of color, fragrance, and taste. Liu Man’s picture of a barbecue was obviously from a roadside stall.
The famous accounts on Wei Bo and fans of them were already starting to post new year wishes and blessings for each other. The fans waited for a very long ti and finally saw Princess Man posting her New Year greeting for everyone.
But what the heck was that photo she sent?
All of her fans were very much perplexed.
“Sis, it’s New Year’s Eve tonight. You’re having a barbecue at a roadside stall?”
“Princess is still in Shanghai? You’re not back ho?”
“Look at the location she sent this post. She’s in Shanghai.”
“Please don’t tell that sis is eating this as her reunion dinner.”
“Although there seems to be a lot on this table, having a barbecue on the New Year’s Eve gives a sense of wretchedness…”
“Hey, hey, hey. Don’t say anything if you don’t know how to. It’s New Year, so can’t you say sothing good?”
“Live-strear, are you alone in Shanghai? None of your family mbers are with you?”
Seeing this fan ssage, Liu Man’s finger that was scrolling paused for a while, and her eyes stared at the screen as she went into a trance. She thought of Liu Chengyu, who was still in the detention center, Zhang Pei, who was in her hotown, and Madam Xu and Xiao Zhao, who had been long gone.
No matter if it was her past life or her current life, it seed that she had never had any family. She was always alone, and she had got used to it.
At this ti, “I’m a vet” suddenly pinged Princess Man, “I treated her to this barbecue al. This isn’t a reunion dinner; it’s snacks after dinner.”
“I’m a vet” posted a picture after this ssage. It was the sa table of food but took in a different perspective.
Liu Man suddenly raised her head, and Yu Zhan, who was sitting across from her, blinked at her and complained, “You are very happy. Why does everyone think you are very pitiful? Is it so miserable to have a barbecue with ?”
Liu Man laughed out loud. Because it was cold, her cheeks and her nose were all red, but her eyes were extra bright and not shy anymore. She directly stared at Yu Zhan, her eyes filled with joy and warmth.
Yu Zhan knew Liu Man looked extrely pretty when she laughed. Unfortunately, she always acted like an ancient woman and never laughed but only smiled. She rarely laughed like most modern girls would.
Yu Zhan liked her current smile; it was like the cloud had finally revealed the glow of the moon. She had gotten free and laughed without caring about anything.
Liu Man did finally found freedom. She reposted what “I’m a vet’ has just sent and wrote, “I’m not alone; I’m with @I’m a vet.”
“!!!”
“!!!!!!!”
“What’s happening?”
“I seem to sll adultery???”
“Nonsense. Our princess is only twenty-years-old! ‘I’m a vet’ is an elder, so that’s not possible.”
Yu Zhan froze when he saw this comnt.
Was he old?
How on earth was he old!
The comnt that made him feel depressed was further down:
“Can those old n stop feeding on young girls? Why does that happen every ti nowadays?”
“Oh, oh. So sir vet is a grandpa with white hair? I’ve always thought he was about forty-years-old.”
“I don’t think god vet’s that old. He’s probably fifty-years-old, soone like my dad.”
“That’s still not appropriate for him to be with sis.”
“You guys are impressive… The veterinarian is highly respected, and you are here to talk nonsense. Later, I will @Princess Man and let her delete these comnts.”
“The Internet is filthy now. What even are these rumors? Did you guys read too much p*rn? When a man and a woman have dinner together, do they have to be a couple? People can be friends, relatives, or even e-friends.”
“Yeah, yeah. I love both Princess Man and god vet. Seeing these trash comnts makes feel very angry.”
“If you guys infuriate our vet and make him delete his Wei Bo account, I will seriously report all of you!”
“Lord vet, if you are browsing Wei Bo right now, please ignore all of those comnts!”
How could he pretend he to not see those comnts!
Yu Zhan was going to explode from all his anger.
But when he lifted his head, he saw Liu Man was laughing hard. Her hand was on her stomach, and the other was trying to hold on to the table. She couldn’t even sit upright.
“Oh, no. Oh, no. I’m having a stomach ache, hahaha,” Liu Man saw Yu Zhan’s dark face and wanted to resist her laughter, but she really couldn’t.
Such a handso man was a grandpa in her fans’ minds!
Liu Man was laughing so hard tears were rolling down her cheeks. She tried to stop laughing as she wiped away her tears.
Yu Zhan was suddenly not angry seeing how happy Liu Man was. He helplessly sighed, “Forget whatever they say. I’m the one who’s taking advantage of them calling dad and grandpa since that would make older than them.”
As long as she was forever happy, he wouldn’t even mind it if they call him a dinosaur.
