Chapter 78 Sophie's Background
The bean curd skin was quickly blanched and sprinkled with seasonings, chopped green onions, etc. It was so delicious and tasty that one could not help but drool.
"Sophie, try one piece first. If it suits your taste, we'll order some other delicacies and sit over there to eat." Li Quan handed her two pieces of bean curd without chili sauce.
She has been craving for it for a long time.
After taking it, he took a small bite first, then showed an expression of surprise and joy.
Without caring about her ladylike image, she bit off a big piece, chewed it hard, and tasted it, with an expression of great enjoyment on her face.
"Mmm, delicious, so delicious! It's full of fragrance, the right amount of saltiness, and very chewy, not greasy... Oh my God, I've never eaten such delicious food in my life!"
Sophie mumbled incoherent praises of the deliciousness of the food.
This made Li Quan and the stall owner and his wife all burst into laughter.
"Li Quan, my dinner today is up to you. Please order one portion of all the delicious food for me." She thought this was a Western meal.
I also ordered one for each.
Can you finish it?
"Okay, go sit at that empty table and eat first, I'll be right over after I order."
Li Quan didn't know how much she ate, so he ordered six dishes in total.
Cabbage, enoki mushrooms, shredded squid...
After ordering, he took out a hundred-dollar bill and asked, "Boss, how much is it in total?"
Sophie said she would treat us, but how could she really do that?
Li Quan had a huge sum of money in his pocket, so it was no problem for him to treat everyone to a spicy hot pot meal.
"The total cost is thirty-eight yuan. If you spend thirty yuan or more, I will give you two bowls of seaweed and egg soup for free." The boss is very good at doing business and gives some small discounts to win the hearts of customers.
"Okay, thank you, boss!" Li Quan took the change with satisfaction.
A meal for two people here costs only thirty-eight cents, which is really cheap.
When he walked over, Sophie had already eaten a piece of tofu skin.
"Li Quan, what did you order? The snacks here are really delicious." She had already started to tear into the second piece of tofu skin.
"You'll know when you get here, so I'll give you some anticipation! It's just... I didn't expect you to be such a big eater. This big piece of bean curd skin is probably equivalent to half a steamed bun, but you finished it so quickly."
Li Quan couldn't help but marvel at her appetite.
"Now you know that I have a big appetite, right? Do you regret choosing me as your girlfriend?" As soon as she said this, she realized that she had said the wrong thing.
It’s a pity that once words are spoken and water is poured out, there is no way to take it back.
"No matter how big your appetite is, I can feed you! So, does this mean you agree to be my girlfriend?" Li Quan felt a little dreamy.
He couldn't believe that all this was true.
It has only been two days since I met Sophie.
The two of them developed too fast.
"Think too much! It was just a slip of the tongue. Let's eat quickly!" Sophie lowered her head and ate the food in her hand with a guilty conscience.
Li Quan's heart was already filled with joy.
Girls are an advanced species who say one thing and mean another.
She said it was a slip of the tongue, but who would believe her?
The two of them were very happy while eating delicious food and chatting.
Especially Sophie, who always had a smile on her face.
When they were almost done eating, a red Ferrari sports car stopped at the entrance of the alley with a "bang". This sports car was very domineering, blocking the center of the entrance.
Then the car door opened and three young men in strange costumes walked out.
Their hair was either dyed yellow or brown, they wore earrings or studs, and they wore ripped jeans and thick chains on their clothes.
His hair was so long that it covered his eyes.
One look at these people and you can tell they are problem youths whose families have mines but who have not received much parental education.
Sophie frowned when she saw these people.
"Li Quan, I'm done eating. It's getting late. Why don't we go back?" She put down the remaining enoki mushrooms in her hand. "Boss, check out!"
"This young man has already paid the bill!" said the boss with a smile.
"It's agreed that I'll treat you. How much is it in total?" Sophie looked at Li Quan somewhat unhappily.
"You treat me next time." Li Quan didn't want to have supper with her just once. He wanted her to owe him this dinner, so that he would have a legitimate reason to invite her out next time.
"Okay, I'll treat you tomorrow, but make a deal, if you secretly rush to pay the bill again, I'll be really angry." She compromised.
The information revealed in the words made Li Quan very happy.
She's treating us tomorrow.
Doesn't this mean that there is still a chance to pick her up from get off work tomorrow and then go out for a midnight snack together?
"Let's go!" she urged.
"good!"
Li Quan stood up and took out a tissue to wipe his mouth.
The three problematic young men with non-mainstream attire had now come closer.
The blond young man in the lead was stunned when he saw Sophie, and was obviously a little surprised.
After exchanging a few words with the two companions beside them , and the other two staring at Sophie for a few seconds, they walked towards Sophie.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Su? With your family's wealth and status , there are all kinds of delicacies in your home. How can you, a rich lady, come here to eat spicy hot pot?"
"You got the wrong person!"
Sophie had a cold face and denied it flatly.
"Wrong person? Miss Su has a boyfriend, so is she afraid of being recognized by us?" The yellow-haired man tilted his head and looked Li Quan up and down.
The other two also had monkey-like expressions and looked at Li Quan with amusement.
"Li Quan, let's go!" Sophie no longer paid attention to the three people.
"Boy, do you know who she is? I advise you to stay away from her. You are wearing cheap clothes. You don't have anything valuable from head to toe. You are not worthy of Sophie . Her parents will never agree to your relationship."
The yellow-haired man stared at Li Quan and said coldly.
"roll!"
Li Quan shouted angrily.
Although I had guessed that Sophie's family might be well-off, I didn't expect her family to be richer than I thought.
He was a little annoyed because he knew that although what Huangmao and others said was unpleasant, it was very likely true.
I thought I would be able to get out of being single soon.
Unexpectedly, the setbacks had just begun.
What if Sophie’s parents don’t agree with her dating Li Quan?
This possibility is extremely high.
"Oh, you have quite a temper."
"Brother Kun, why bother with this country bumpkin? We still have business to attend to. Let's go."
The three troubled youths did not bother any more and walked quickly into the depths of the alley.
"Come on, I'll take you home."
Li Quan was feeling a little depressed. He was afraid of losing this beautiful and kind girl in front of him.
It was already past nine o'clock. After walking out of the alley, the number of pedestrians on the street became sparse.
As the two walked towards the bus stop, Li Quan remained silent and forced a smile.
His worry was written all over his face.
Suddenly, he felt a soft hand taking hold of his right hand.
"You seem a little unhappy!" she said softly.
"No!"
After hesitating for two seconds, Li Quan took the initiative to hold her hand.
"You still say no, but you look like you're worried about something. Are you worried about what those three people said?" Sophie turned her head and looked at him and asked.
