87: You don't have to go home...

Chen Kai and the other person walked down the elevator together. He had originally thought about taking Tang Yunshu's Mercedes-Benz to the restaurant, but he never expected that as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Tang Yunshu, like an untamed wild horse, made a beeline for the back seat of his Electric Scooter.

She plopped down on the back seat of the Electric Scooter, one foot propped on the ground. "I get to ride on brother's little vehicle again! I've been thinking of buying the same model. It's so convenient and exciting~"

Chen Kai chuckled. "You'd have to modify it after buying it. You wouldn't be able to handle that. Just ride on my back seat."

"Hmm~ Then can you let me ride more often?"

"No problem, it's just a ride."

Chen Kai smiled. Based on the address Tang Yunshu had sent him on WeChat, he entered the navigation and drove towards the restaurant ranked number one on a certain review app's local Jiangnan City list.

In less than half an hour, he slowly stopped the vehicle and walked side-by-side with Tang Yunshu into a restaurant that looked very upscale.

Accompanied by a server the entire way, they sat down at their table and began ordering.

"Since you're treating, you order."

Chen Kai took the menu from the server's hands and passed it to Tang Yunshu.

"Alright, then~ I can try to guess what you like to eat, brother."

"I admit defeat when it comes to your eye for Stocks, but I'm quite confident in my research on what you like to eat~"

Tang Yunshu lifted her proud little chin and started flipping through the menu.

The server standing nearby was looking at Chen Kai with a somewhat odd expression.

Having a meal with such a beautiful girl, and he's letting her research what he eats?

I hate rich people!

Not long after, Tang Yunshu had ordered six dishes.

Proudly, she pushed the menu in front of him. "Brother, take a look. Isn't this perfectly suited to your taste?"

Chen Kai took the menu with a skeptical attitude and focused on the dishes she had checked off. "Wow? You know my taste this well??"

All the various new-style dishes she selected were ones he found quite good!

"Of course~"

"That's all, please place the order."

Tang Yunshu took the menu back, wrote a few words on the paper menu with a pen, and calmly spoke to the server beside her, even raising an eyebrow at the server.

"Yes, ma'am."

After taking the menu, the server clearly paused for a moment.

A meaningful expression appeared on their face, eyes full of envy.

They quickly walked towards the Kitchen, glancing back at Chen Kai from time to time, their gaze filled with envy.

...

In less than half an hour, all six dishes were brought to the table, accompanied by two glasses of freshly squeezed juice.

"Try it quickly, I heard this place's food is really good!"

Tang Yunshu placed a kung pao shrimp ball in his bowl, then brought the tip of her chopsticks to her lips, watching him expectantly as he ate it.

Chen Kai tasted it. Not bad at all! Spicy and numbing, with a hint of sweet and sour hidden within. The shrimp meat was very springy!

"You try some too."

Just as he picked up a shrimp ball, Tang Yunshu opened her mouth wide, leaning her body slightly forward, revealing a mouthful of neat, white little teeth.

Chen Kai was taken aback for a moment, but still placed the shrimp ball into her mouth.

Bringing the chopsticks back and looking at them in his hand, well... besides the syrup clinging to the shrimp ball, there was also a faint, shiny trail of moisture.

"Mmm~! Delicious, brother, you have some too!"

Chen Kai silently nodded and took a mouthful of rice.

Half an hour later, the food was devoured like a whirlwind. Chen Kai patted his satisfied stomach contentedly and let out a burp.

Thinking carefully, the last meal was also treated by Tang Yunshu. It didn't feel right to keep freeloading.

He definitely couldn't be the only one giving, but he also couldn't let the girl be the only one giving.

Just as he slowly stood up, Tang Yunshu tilted her head and looked at him. "Brother, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to the restroom."

Chen Kai rubbed the tip of his nose and walked towards the front counter, finding the young man who had been looking at him with a strange expression.

"Check, please. Table 031, how much?"

The young man swallowed, his gaze somewhat evasive.

"Uh... sir, congratulations. You've become our store's lucky customer. Your table's bill is on the house!"

Chen Kai was slightly stunned. Lucky customer? What nonsense is this?

"Are... you sure?"

"Absolutely sure! Our store only has one 'lucky customer free meal' slot per day, and it was very luckily drawn for table... 032!"

The server gave an unnatural smile.

"But I'm at table 031."

"Uh... oh! I remembered wrong. The free meal is for table 031!"

The server fiercely grabbed the corner of his clothes, his palms sweating.

"Oh, alright then." Seeing this, Chen Kai didn't press further. A free meal's advantage is not to be missed.

He was just about to turn back to tell Tang Yunshu about the free meal when, unexpectedly, Tang Yunshu was already approaching, holding her bag and wiping her mouth.

"Brother, did you come to secretly pay the bill?"

Tang Yunshu raised an eyebrow, as if everything was within her expectations.

"Yeah. He said our table is the lucky customer, so it's free."

"Really? Brother, your luck is too good! Oh no! I should say, our luck together is too good!"

Tang Yunshu narrowed her eyes with a happy smile and grabbed his arm. "Are you going to the restroom?"

Chen Kai nodded, feeling that something was a bit off.

"Then I'll go for a bit?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you here."

Chen Kai acknowledged and walked slowly towards the restroom next to the front counter. Only when he reached the restroom stall door did he lean against the wall, peeking out with just one eye, curiously watching outside.

He saw Tang Yunshu say something to the server, then scan a code with her phone.

After scanning, she showed her phone to the server, and then waited for him outside as if nothing had happened.

Chen Kai was a bit confused. Was this... Tang Yunshu specifically instructing the server about the free meal? Afraid he would secretly pay?

This woman is quite something!

He shook his head and walked out of the restroom a moment later.

She actively linked her arm with his as they walked towards the door, leaving behind only an envious-looking server.

...

"Brother's luck is too good, even getting a free meal when eating out."

"I'm starting to really like going out with you! Where should we go next?"

Chen Kai glanced at the time. It was only five o'clock, still a bit early for the nine o'clock movie.

He looked at the map. There wasn't much fun to do near this restaurant.

Nearby were only a few supermarkets. One of them was the Pan Dongdong supermarket where he and Liu Yunshang had gone to Score a Bargain with that hundreds of thousands in discounts.

"Hmm... How about going to the supermarket? I'm going back to my hometown in a few days, I might as well buy some things for my parents."

"Ah? You're going home in a few days? Okay, then I'll buy some things for your uncle and aunt too."

Tang Yunshu frowned in thought. "Then how about the mall? Let's go shopping."

"Let's go to Pan Dongdong. They have basically everything there. I still have points to deduct at Pan Dongdong supermarket!"

"Okay~"

"After the supermarket, how about watching a movie around eight-something? Do you have to go back tonight?"

Chen Kai asked curiously.

"I... maybe I don't have to go back."

Tang Yunshu's face flushed for an instant, her voice becoming as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

Chen Kai hadn't yet realized his question was a bit inappropriate, and silently nodded.
