On the way there, it was silent, and Chen Yang thought of nothing.
However, the old man in the passenger seat was feeling quite complex.
It was all about the sense of crisis for Xiao Cui.
The looks of the three girlsâhe had seen them all, not one of them inferior to his own daughter.
How could he not feel a crisis?
And since Chen Yang was so outstanding, if someone else moved faster, it would truly be a pity.
After feeling conflicted for a while, the old man made a resolve secretly!
After today, he would definitely make Xiao Cui interact more with Chen Yang to seize the opportunity, to turn the raw rice into cooked riceâŚ
As he thought about it, suddenly the car stopped with a jolt.
âHere we are, everyone get off.â
Chen Yang unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.
The old man followed by the three girls also got out.
In the midst of the day, Night Snack Street was extremely empty.
And few shops were open; most were closed.
However, the front of the old manâs night snack shop was crowded.
It was Li Lao, along with his students.
From a distance, Chen Yang glanced over, then led the old man and the three girls over.
Li Han and Li Lao were acquaintances, and upon meeting, naturally, they were not short of pleasantries, exchanging greetings.
The old man quickly took out his keys, opened the shop, and then moved out tables, chairs, and stools to accommodate everyone.
Everyone was unreserved, merrily taking seats, and started chatting with one another.
Li Laoâs students were still discussing Chen Yangâs treatment methods from earlier.
They each shared their opinions, chatting quite lively.
But Chen Yang didnât say a word, not explaining whether what they said was right or wrong.
He just sat quietly by the three girls, quietly drinking his beverage, listening to Li Han chat with Li Lao.
âLi Lao, I really must thank you for the medicinal cuisine, without your help, our hotelâs business definitely wouldnât have been so good!â
Li Han said with a smile, raising his juice in place of a toast to Li Lao.
Li Lao had a very good impression of Li Han, and on hearing this, he was very pleased.
âHaha, President Li is too kind, speaking of this matter, itâs me who should be thankful, if not for you, I wouldnât have met Yang Zi, and my partner would definitely still be lying in bed,â Li Lao said joyfully, then clinked glasses with Li Han, draining it in one gulp.
The atmosphere at the meal was very good; everyone got along very well, and this lively atmosphere made Chen Yang quite happy.
âRuoxi, why donât you toast Li Lao a glass!
You still have something to ask for his help later, donât you?â
Chen Yang looked around and then focused his attention on Yang Ruoxi.
Yang Ruoxi was usually carefree and sunny.
Suddenly, in such a gathering of strangers, she even became restrained.
Her entire demeanor looked somewhat unnatural.
âI donât know him, how can I go toast him?â Yang Ruoxi said, her face slightly blushing.
This was the first time Chen Yang saw Yang Ruoxi like this and couldnât help but find it somewhat funny.
âYou donât know him now, but if you go and toast, wonât you get to know him?
Heâs an elder, you canât expect him to come over and talk to you first,â Chen Yang said with a smile.
Although Yang Ruoxi was somewhat reserved, she understood.
Feeling that Chen Yang was right, she immediately picked up her drink and then turned towards Li Lao.
âLi Lao, I would like to toast you as well.â
Li Lao was happily conversing with Li Han, and upon hearing Yang Ruoxi, he stood up somewhat surprised.
âOh?
Young lady, do you know me?â
Li Lao asked with a benevolent smile.
Yang Ruoxi, who had taken the initiative to speak, already felt embarrassed.
Now being asked this by Li Lao, her face reddened even more, unsure of how to reply.
Noticing Yang Ruoxiâs embarrassment, Li Han quickly stood up and explained with a smile: âLi Lao, this is my cousin, Yang Ruoxi, she is always with us, so she has long held you in high respect.â
Li Han chuckled as he explained, and Li Lao immediately understood.
âOh, I see.â
Li Lao chuckled, then clinked glasses with Yang Ruoxi and drank up.
Seeing the topic open up, Yang Ruoxi felt less awkward.
She continued along Li Hanâs lines of conversation.
âYes, Mr.
Li, Iâve always been with my sister and often hear about you from her.
I truly admire you,â
Yang Ruoxi said sweetly.
Upon hearing this, Mr.
Liâs smile grew even brighter, âHahaha, really?
Maybe President Li has praised me too much.
Iâm just a retired old man, not as remarkable as you think, to be admired by you young folks.â
Once Yang Ruoxi heard this, she immediately waved her hands, âNot at all, Mr.
Li.
You are a pillar of the medical community.
Even though youâve retired, your influence and reputation still remain.
You are a role model for us young people.â
Yang Ruoxi said this with a serious expression on her face.
It made her seem incredibly genuine.
Chen Yang couldnât help but give Yang Ruoxi a thumbs up internally, thinking she really knew how to speak.
After hearing this exchange, Mr.
Li was even more delighted.
His fondness for Yang Ruoxi shot up instantly.
Afterward, the two of them spoke with great enthusiasm, and Chen Yang and Li Han couldnât even interject.
âRuoxi is really good at this, her flattery is seamless,â Chen Yang whispered.
Li Han covered her mouth and snickered.
âWho says itâs flattery?
Maybe she really means it?â
Li Han said, giving Chen Yang a playful glance.
Chen Yang heard this, smiled, and then said no more.
About half an hour later, they began serving the food.
Seeing the table full of delicious dishes, everyone was starving.
Conversations ceased, and so did any discussions.
Everyone focused wholeheartedly on eating.
âMr.
Chen, does anyone here drink alcohol?
Iâll go buy some good liquor for everyone,â the elderly man asked with a smile once all the dishes were served.
Chen Yang looked at Mr.
Li and then at his students.
âLetâs get some.
The atmosphere is just right for a drink,â
Chen Yang said with a smile.
âOkay, wait here for me for a moment.
Iâll go buy the drinks now,â the elderly man said, nodding and wiping his hands before heading out to buy the liquor.
Everyone continued to eat and drink.
While the table lacked lobster, the flavors of the other dishes were still excellent.
As they ate, they couldnât stop praising how delicious everything was.
After about ten minutes, the elderly man returned with several bottles of pricey liquor.
Seeing the packaging of the liquor, Mr.
Li felt a bit embarrassed.
âElder, youâve spent too much.
We could have just had some ordinary drinks.
Thereâs no need for this,â
Mr.
Li remarked.
Chen Yang, hearing this, looked up and glanced at the bottles of liquor in the elderly manâs hands.
They were the most expensive kind, costing several thousand per bottle.
He had brought back four or five bottles.
The cost was definitely over ten thousand yuan.
âYes, elder, this really isnât necessary.
Take it back and letâs get some other drinks,â Chen Yang said.
But the elderly man didnât listen and just cheerfully started to open them.
While opening the bottles, he said, âItâs no trouble, no trouble at all.
You folks have helped me a great deal today.
So what if we drink a little?
As long as everyoneâs happy.â
Having said that, the elderly man had already twisted open the caps and then walked over to Chen Yang, picked up his glass, and began pouring.
âHere, Yang Zi, you try it first.â
Although Chen Yang didnât really want to, what could he do now that it was already opened?
He had no choice but to drink.
Chen Yang took the glass and gently tasted the liquor, which was incredibly smooth.
âHmmâŚ
itâs worthy of being called the national liquor.
Its taste is indeed better than the others,â Chen Yang praised.
With Chen Yang starting, Mr.
Li and the others couldnât continue to be polite either.
They all poured themselves a drink and began to drink.
Eventually, even Li Han, Wu Kexin, and Yang Ruoxi joined in the drinking.
