Chapter 420 - Going Out to Eat with Two Women
Chapter 420 of "City's Best Divine Doctor" kicks off revealing: Liu Xia felt somewhat embarrassed; Ye Qiu was treating her illness without charging a penny,... Find out whatâs next!
Liu Xia felt somewhat embarrassed; Ye Qiu was treating her illness without charging a penny, and now he even offered to take her out for a meal.
âOkay, okay, Iâll go change into a new set of clothes first.â
Xiao Hong hurriedly said.
Watching Xiao Hongâs reaction, Liu Xia could only shake her head helplessly and go back to her room to change into a new set of clothes.
After the two women changed and came down from the rental apartment, Liu Xia and Xiao Hong walked ahead.
Xiao Hong noticed that as she held Liu Xiaâs hand, most of the body odor she had was gone.
Originally, the worst parts of Liu Xiaâs body odor were her armpits and feet, but Ye Qiu had completely cured those areas.
Now, the remaining odor wasnât as noticeable when she was clothed.
With a little perfume sprayed on, the scent of the perfume masked the remaining odor, and Xiao Hong could hardly smell it anymore.
âXiaxia, youâve really become a beauty now.â
Xiao Hong said with envy.
âItâs still not that great.â
Ye Qiu didnât dine with them in the urban village; the sight of the filthy river there spoiled his appetite, and besides, he found the food in the urban village to be unclean.
When they approached the Mercedes-AMG, Xiao Hong truly couldnât believe that Ye Qiu had bought such an expensive luxury car.
Initially, she had thought that Ye Qiuâs Mercedes would be at most an A-Class, worth only two to three hundred thousand.
Moreover, judging by his attire, he didnât look like someone wealthy, did he?
Could it be that he dressed that way on purpose?
As Ye Qiu opened the car door and the two women took their seats in the back, Ye Qiu reversed the car and left the area, driving away from the urban village towards a nearby large restaurant.
Arriving at the large restaurantâs parking lot, Ye Qiu parked the car with the guidance of a security guard, and they exited the car and entered the restaurantâs lobby.
At the front desk, the cashier asked, âMiss, do you have a reservation?â
The cashier glanced at Liu Xiaâs beauty and assumed she was the host.
When Liu Xia looked at Ye Qiu, he said, âAre there any private rooms available?â
âSir, let me check for you.â
It was dinnertime, and the restaurant was very busy with nearly all the tables in the main hall filled.
The cashier at the front desk quickly checked the computer records and found that there were two private rooms available.
One was called Plum Blossom Hall and the other Rose Hall.
The size and space of the rooms were similar but both required a minimum consumption.
To dine in a private room, the expense had to be at least 1888 yuan, and outside alcohol was not allowed.
It was usually the bosses who came to dine, and they chose the private rooms when they had many diners.
Now, with only three people including Ye Qiu, it really wasnât necessary.
However, Ye Qiu preferred a quiet environment.
Moreover, he was not lacking that amount of money.
Liu Xia whispered to Ye Qiu, pulling at his hand, âEating inside is too expensive, it would be okay to just eat outside.â
âItâs fine.â
Ye Qiu chose the private Rose Hall.
Under the guidance of a female waitress, Ye Qiu, Liu Xia, and Xiao Hong headed toward a private Rose Hall.
Both Liu Xia and Xiao Hong came from ordinary families.
Although they would occasionally go out with classmates during their university days, those were group gatherings with many students.
Now, for just the three of them, the expense would be at least 1888 yuan, which was truly a first-time experience for Liu Xia and Xiao Hong.
Upon entering the Rose Hall and closing the door, aside from the air conditioning making the room very comfortable, it was also very quiet.
When Ye Qiu and the two women sat down at the large dining table that could accommodate ten to twenty people, the waitress first went out to bring tea and appetizers.
Ye Qiu took the menu, passed it to Liu Xia and Xiao Hong, and when Liu Xia opened it, she saw that nearly every dish was over a hundred yuan.
With a minimum spend of 1888 yuan, they would have to order at least fifteen dishes, but how could three people eat so much?
âYe Qiu, wonât this be too wasteful?
If we canât finish, taking leftovers home wonât taste good tomorrow,â
Liu Xia said.
âJust order the expensive ones, as long as theyâre tasty,â
Ye Qiu replied, which made Liu Xia feel even more embarrassed.
But Xiao Hong, on the other hand, was very happy.
She felt that if Ye Qiu could afford such an expensive Mercedes, this meal was nothing in comparison and there was no need to save money on his behalf.
Besides, it had been a long time since she had enjoyed a feast.
When Ye Qiu asked the two women to order, Liu Xia chose a green vegetable dish and tofu, and then stopped ordering, whereas Xiao Hong selected seven or eight kinds of seafood, including large lobsters and abalone.
As Liu Xia watched Xiao Hong order in such a manner, squeezing her arm, Xiao Hong said, âIf we donât order like this, how will we reach 1888 yuan?â
Ye Qiu wasnât upset.
After confirming the order, the waitress brought over the appetizers and, looking at the menu, asked, âSir, Miss, are you sure this is all you want?â
Ye Qiu nodded.
âThen, would you like some wine?â
âI have to work tonight and canât drink, but you guys go ahead,â
Xiao Hong said.
Ye Qiu was going to drive and Liu Xia normally didnât drink.
Moreover, she thought the alcohol here was very expensive and a waste of money, she said, âWe wonât drink.â
âBring a bottle of mid-range red wine,â
When the waitress took note of that, Liu Xia asked, âHow will you drive if you drink wine now?â
Moreover, Liu Xia knew that Ye Qiu was driving without a license and if he were caught by the traffic police, not only would he be unlicensed, but also guilty of drunk driving, which would be very dangerous.
âThis little bit of wine is nothing,â
Ye Qiu, a cultivator, could easily dissipate the alcohol in his system with a simple circulation of the âPrimordial Five Emperors Technique.â
However, Liu Xia didnât know this.
She felt that if Ye Qiu drank, she definitely couldnât let him drive, as it would endanger themselves and others.
When the waitress brought over the red wine priced at fifteen hundred yuan, Ye Qiu first asked her to open it to check if it was counterfeit; he wouldnât accept fake wine.
After tasting a sip, he found it was genuine, but it was probably worth at most five or six hundred yuan.
The restaurant was clearly marking up the price to make a profit.
Seeing Ye Qiu and Liu Xia drinking, Xiao Hong said, âI want to drink too.â
âXiao Hong, didnât you just say you canât drink because of work?â
Liu Xia asked with a smile.
âXiaxia, Iâve never had the chance to taste such expensive red wine before.
Iâll just have half a glass, and after taking some sober-up pills, I should be fine,â
Ye Qiu noticed that Xiao Hong had a personality completely different from Liu Xiaâs.
However, the fact that she could tolerate Liu Xiaâs strong body odor showed she had a good character.
And since she spoke her mind, it showed that she was not pretentious, and was easy to get along with.
