เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มี.ค. 2569 20:23

Common Ground From Tang Yun’s perspective, all the children of wealthy families were accompanied and flattered by the manager when they went to their families’ hotels and restaurants, just like soap operas show... That was why Tang Yun felt like there was a huge gap between Miss and her. But now, she thought that Miss always kept a low profile since people here didn’t recognize her, and she didn’t act superior either. Although Chu Mengyao lived in a billionaire’s house, she did not have a bossy and domineering personality. This was because Chu Pengzhan educated her strictly and since Chu Mengyao had a lonely heart and couldn’t make friends easily. Chen Yushu was her best friend since she was young, and she had no other good friends. Hence, she was influenced by those with unhealthy lifestyles! Both Chu Mengyao and Feng Xiaoxiao’s extreme personality was created due to the absence of maternal love, but they had something in common: they didn’t have many friends! Chu Mengyao only had one but Feng Xiaoxiao had none! However, Chu Mengyao was more fortunate than Feng Xiaoxiao since her mother was still alive. There was still hope for her. With Shu’s friendship, she wasn’t too lonely. However, Feng Xiaoxiao had nothing, and she was diagnosed with an incurable disease. She wasted her life away. After settling down in the room, Chu Mengyao passed the menu and the order machine to Tang Yun, letting her order. But how could Tang Yun afford to eat at an expensive restaurant like this? She was horrified at the price of the dishes. How could they be so expensive! The price of one dish was enough for a week’s worth of food for her family! They also had to order the food themselves. After deciding what they wanted, they simply had to enter the code into the machine and it would display whether the chef could cook the dish or not. However, Tang Yun didn’t know how to use it. "I don’t know how to use it... You should do it," Tang Yun was honest. She was poor and there was no need to mask it in front of Chu Mengyao. She passed the menu and order machine back to Chu Mengyao. Chu Mengyao knew what Tang Yun was thinking and took them without speaking. She decided on a few dishes quickly. She didn’t like eating things like bird’s nest and shark fin soup since she didn’t like the way they tasted, but she ordered bird’s nest congee for Tang Yun. Then she passed the menu to Chen Yushu. Chen Yushu flipped through the menu, and discovered that there was only shark fin, no shark meat; she was immensely disappointed, "Yaoyao sis, I think that Uncle Chu should add a shark meat dish!" "..." Chu Mengyao was speechless. How could her dad have time to think about this stuff? Ordering the restaurant’s raw ingredients himself? She pondered for a while and asked, "You want to eat shark meat?" "Kind of, but I don’t know if it’ll taste better than shield bro’s cooking," Chen Yushu swallowed and replied. Tang Yun felt uncomfortable. Did Lin Yi make food for them every day? "We’ll ask the waiter if they can make it or not. Anything else you want to eat?" Chu Mengyao asked. "Nope," Chen Yushu shook her head. "Alright. Lin Yi, what about you?" Although Chu Mengyao no longer acted as calm as before. It was in her heart. On the surface, her attitude towards Lin Yi was as cold as ice, just like when Lin Yi just moved in with her. But was it really the same? Chu Mengyao could only explain it clearly to herself, or perhaps she didn’t even understand why herself. "These are enough, I’m not picky," These were honest words. Since childhood, the food picked him. He didn’t get to pick food since he had to adapt to the local food. When he was deep in the mountains, there was nothing to eat. Lin Yi ate whatever he could get his hands on since he had no other choices. Chu Mengyao nodded and called a waiter in. She passed the order machine to him and asked, "Do you have shark meat here?" "Shark meat?" The waiter paused for a second before confirming, "Please wait for a moment, I’ll ask the kitchen for you." The waiter picked up his comm. and replied after receiving a certain answer, "Yes, Miss, we do. How would you like it?" "Can you grill it? I want to eat grilled shark meat!" Chen Yushu said. "Of course," The waiter asked the kitchen before replying, "Yes, but because it’s a custom dish, it will be slightly more expensive. Are you fine with that? It’ll be about 600 yuan..." "Yes," Chu Mengyao nodded calmly. Money was nothing to her. She didn’t have a concept about money, and although she wouldn’t fill her room with luxurious goods, she wouldn’t care about prices either. The waiter ordered grilled shark meat through the comm., and he served drinks. Chu Mengyao ordered juice since they were girls, and Lin Yi couldn’t drink as he’s the driver. There was no need for alcohol here. "Tang Yun, thank you for today," Chu Mengyao raised her glass and thanked her. After a moment of hesitation, she scorned herself, "Although it doesn’t look like we can become friends..." Chu Mengyao was extremely touched when Tang Yun called Lin Yi. However, no matter how touched she was, she won’t compromise the happiness that belonged to her! She won’t allow Tang Yun to take Lin Yi away from the mansion! If Lin Yi left her, where could she find someone as caring as him? Of course, she never admitted that she liked Lin Yi. He was such a flirty person. How could she possibly like him? "I understand," Tang Yun wasn’t surprised. She didn’t think that their conflicts could be solved after one meal together, "I called Lin Yi because I didn’t want to defeat my rival in this way!" "Haha..." Chu Mengyao smiled but she did not explain further. Tang Yun was unable to understand how dependent she was to Lin Yi. "Yaoyao sis, let’s not talk about this. It’s too heavy!" Chen Yushu couldn’t help but butt into their conversation. She wanted to change the topic. "Haha, we’ll stop," Chu Mengyao finished the juice in her glass and gestured towards Tang Yun. Tang Yun lifted her glass and drank it, accepting Chu Mengyao’s gratitude. To be honest, Tang Yun never expected Chu Mengyao to thank her so formally. She felt uncomfortable since their relationship was too strange. Tang Yun didn’t know Chu Mengyao well. Not many people truly cared about her other than Chu Pengzhan, Uncle Fu, Chen Yushu, and few family members. Lin Yi was the only one other than that. When Tang Yun showed her concern for her, she was also extremely touched!
