Chapter 37 It's so easy to bow your head
Seeing the anxious atmosphere, Gu Lingsi bit her lower lip in embarrassment, and looked at the end of the table for help.

Seeing this, Ning Xu straightened his back lazily, intending to speak to ease the atmosphere.

I don't know if Xia Ling could see his plan, and lightly revealed:

"Okay, let's call it a day. Since Mingdai likes the food here, she has to finish eating before leaving."

The hidden line is - if Ming Dai doesn't like it, I won't stay here for a minute!

Everyone was stunned!

No one thought that Xia Ling would be so nice to a so-called friend!
This recognition completely wiped away their contempt for Ming Dai, and decided to re-examine Ming Dai's existence!

Family background, ability, etc. are not important, if Mingdai's thoughts can directly affect Tangtang Xia Ling, then what's the difficulty in saying something polite to her and taking the initiative to make friends?Nothing is more important than profit!
... It's like a butterfly flapping its wings lightly, and it sets off an incomparable hurricane.

There was some subtle change in the air, which also made Ming Dai the center of the hurricane.

Ming Dai is keenly aware of the emotions around her, how could she not know what these people are thinking?

She really didn't know whether to be sarcastic or admire.

It turned out that it was so easy for these proud sons of heaven with higher eyes than lower ones in the previous life to bow their heads.

But Ming Dai didn't get arrogant easily, but ignored these people's overtures and started talking to Xia Ling in a low voice.

Others searched for topics on their own in a timely manner, and chatted in twos and threes.

The awkward and anxious atmosphere just now disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Lingsi, who was in charge, seemed to be ignored.

She lowered her eyes dimly and sighed softly.

Tang Xue was full of grievances: "I'm sorry, Miss Lingsi..."

Gu Lingsi didn't want to blame her, and patted her hand: "It's okay, I know you didn't mean it."

Tang Xue gritted her teeth and lowered her voice: "That Ming Dai!"

"Okay, don't make Xia Ling angry anymore."

Gu Lingsi interrupted her.

The conversation between the two was not heard by others.

Soon the waiters delivered the dishes ordered one by one, because everyone is still a student, so there is no wine to accompany them today.

After the appetizers and appetizers were over, it was the turn of the main course. Everyone at the table chose differently, and the time for serving the dishes was about the same, except for the Provence stew that Mingdai wanted, which was delayed.

But this time no one dared to laugh at her, they were just curious about the next development.

Soon, Mr. Henry, the head chef, came with the Provence stew in person.

"The stew I prepared myself, I hope to satisfy you, the beautiful Miss Dongfang."

Mr. Henry is worthy of being a romantic F-countryman, boasting about Ming Dai all the time.

Mingdai accepted it calmly, picked up the knife and fork, and was about to eat...

Mr. Henry did not leave, but stood on the side with his hands down, as if waiting for Ming Dai's evaluation.

Ming Dai roughly guessed what he was thinking, shook her head with a helpless smile, cut off the tower-shaped vegetables, dipped them in the sauce, and put them into her mouth.

Ming Dai's table manners are very elegant and in place, as if after years of study, this made Tang Xue who was waiting to see her jokes very unwilling.

What Tang Xue didn't know was that these were the results of Ming Dai's hard training in her previous life——

When Ming Dai was first recognized as returning home, she was not liked by her family, so she took it for granted that she was not as elegant and beautiful as Gu Lingsi, so she tried her best to learn Gu Lingsi and integrate into the Gu family, making a lot of jokes about it.

Table etiquette is one of her hard work, the effect of practice is good, but unfortunately it can't be used...

Now, Ming Dai didn't try to be elegant, she looked very relaxed, with the calmness of a gourmet.

Mr. Henry's eyes were shining, and he looked forward to Ming Dai's evaluation even more.

After Ming Dai took another sip, Henry couldn't wait to ask:

"How about it?"

“Delicious, but unfortunately not amazing.”

"Can you tell me in detail?"

"The taste of the sauce is too strong, completely overpowering the taste of the vegetables. There are eggplants and zucchini in it, right? It feels a bit overcooked, and the taste is not consistent with other vegetables, which hinders..."

Ming Dai speaks eloquently, as if she has transformed into a seasoned gourmet, and the whole dining table has become her home field.

And Henry was stunned, seemingly understanding but half understanding.

Xia Ling, who watched with relish, guessed that Henry probably didn't fully understand, and took the initiative to act as an interpreter.

Henry's expression also gradually jumped up and down in the translation of that sentence:
"You have the same thoughts as me! Not long ago, I felt that this dish had shortcomings, and I couldn't think of any specific problems, so after I came to China to open this restaurant, I removed it from the main menu, just to do more research Research... your advice is simply fantastic!"

Henry was very excited and urged Ming Dai to give more and better suggestions.

Ming Dai couldn't resist, so she said a few more words.

"Or you could do a layered roast..."

The old white man was so excited that he firmly held Ming Dai's hand, shaking it up and down:

"Yeah! That's it! I know how to do it! Soon I will be working on the most perfect stew! Beautiful lady, please allow me to give you a free order today, you have no idea how much your words inspire me! "

"……OK."

Ming Dai touched her nose.

She really didn't expect this development.

Xia Ling was more direct, saying in front of everyone:
"So today's meal is Ming Dai's invitation?"

"..."

No one else dared to speak.

Gu Lingsi was silent for a few seconds, but still smiled:
"Yes, it seems that I have to thank Ming Dai today. Then I will invite you again another day, Xia Ling. You and Ming Dai must come then."

"Let's talk later."

Xia Ling was neither cold nor indifferent.

The others moved their knives and forks again, looking at Ming Dai from time to time.

Mingdai lowered her gaze, and the colorful and exquisite stew on the white porcelain plate was like a blur of light and shadow, dragging her back to the Seine River in her previous life. The man opposite.

"This Provence stew is Henry's latest masterpiece. I heard that he has devoted himself to research for three years and claims that it is the most perfect stew in the world. What do you think of the taste?" '

The man's illusory face, like the clouds in the sky, was blown away by the wind, leaving only the comments on Mr. Henry's specialty dishes.

Using Mr. Henry's breakthrough a few years later to stimulate the current inspiration is not cheating, is it?
Ming Dai thought.

……

After a meal, some people are not affected, while others are tasteless.

Ming Dai belongs to the former, no matter whether others are happy or not, she eats happily anyway.

After a group of people walked out of the restaurant, Ming Dai and Xia Ling said goodbye and left without intending to participate in the next activities.

Gu Lingsi stared at the direction in which they left.

"Miss Lingsi?"

Gu Lingsi smiled and turned her head, pinning her messy hair behind her ears.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well today, so I'll go home first."
