Chapter 10 The Crowd Looked at You One More Time
"Where?"
Just after Kemi's voice fell, Jason asked directly.
It's all instinct.
From Jason's... stomach.
Also from Jason's soul.
Therefore, in the face of such an invitation, Jason will never refuse.
He walked back, threw the pillow and quilt in his hand on the sofa, and looked down at Kemi.
"I know a good 24 hour restaurant."
Kemi, who was watched by Jason, panicked and spoke almost subconsciously.
Then, she found that before she could finish speaking, Jason had already strode out.
"hurry up."
Jason, who walked to the door, looked at Kemi, who didn't follow, and urged.
"Oh, oh, come, come."
Cammy replied shyly.
When the two walked out of the apartment, Kemi finally recovered.
Is that ok?
Is this all right?
Just one meal?
Jason is also very talkative, right?
Or is he just cold-hearted?
Does...he likes me?
Kemi raised her head as she thought and peeked at Jason.
Under the street light, Jason's tall and strong body almost completely enveloped Kemi, but Kemi did not reject him at all. On the contrary, she felt a sense of security in her heart that she had never had before.
When she was in despair, it was this tall figure who slashed the iron lock and rescued her.
How the sparks from the blade and the iron lock jumped,
She remembered it clearly.
She opened her mouth to say something to Jason.
But in the end, she closed her mouth.
She found that she didn't know Jason.
Moreover, Jason was different from the boys who had approached her before.
Those boys will let her, they will accommodate her, and they will please her.
But Jason won't.
Jason faced her completely with a stance of equality.
It feels so strange!
Give her an unfamiliar sense of excitement and... joy!
That's right!
Just mixed with joy!
It was so new to Kemi, she felt like she had never felt before, and she picked up the pace.
Jason?
He didn't pay any attention to what Kemi was thinking. He was just guessing what kind of supper would be in the restaurant in a while.
After about 500 meters, Kemi stopped.
There was a restaurant without a sign in front of him—Jason decided it was a restaurant by taste.
As for the outside?
The decoration is very low-key, just looking at the gray brick walls and lighting, you will only think that this is a design company.
"Case Restaurant, this is one of the 24-hour restaurants I know of."
"The taste of his house is very good."
"More importantly, his ice cream is very good."
As a regular customer, Kemi introduced.
ice cream?
Jason nodded to indicate that he remembered, and was going to eat thirty servings first.
"Come!"
"My treat!"
"You're welcome!"
Kemi said, pushed the door open, and after Jason walked in behind him, he subconsciously looked at the layout of the restaurant.
Different from the low-key and confusing outside, the inside of the restaurant is very normal, just the normal restaurant layout, with long tables and round stools, except for another high platform on the side of the restaurant, there is nothing worth caring about.
On that high platform was a large round table and chairs, obviously prepared for the large number of guests who were traveling together.
There were only two of them, Jason and Kemi, so they naturally chose a corner of the restaurant.
After sitting down, Jason's eyes turned to the other corner of the restaurant.
There were also two people sitting there.
Like him and Kemi, a man and a woman.
The man turned his back to them and couldn't see his face clearly, and his voice was thicker.
"I shouldn't have run away."
"They will kill us!"
"We're done!"
The girl whispered, with a hint of weeping in her tone.
"Shh!"
"Do not worry."
"Terry, I assure you, we're safe -- at least safe here."
The man comforted.
Jason didn't deliberately eavesdrop, but an extraordinary perception, which made him unconsciously overhear the conversation between the two.
"What's wrong?"
"Jason, can you hear them talking?"
Kemi turned to look at the two people who were more than ten meters away from him, and looked at Jason in surprise.
"cannot."
Jason answered like this, and then looked at the waiter who came over.
"Good evening, you two."
"Don't worry, I assure the two of you that there will be no problems there."
Seeing that Jason and Kemi were both looking at the two people in the distance, the waiter immediately explained, and then handed the recipe in his hand to Kemi.
"Nice to see you again."
"What do you need?"
the waiter asked.
"I'll treat you, come here."
Kemi hands Jason the recipe.
Jason unceremoniously opened the recipe, and after reading it carefully, he pointed to the wine column on the last page and said:
"This, this, and this."
"are these all?"
The waiter quickly took note of the alcoholic drink Jason pointed to.
Although there are not many people who directly order alcoholic beverages, it is not uncommon.
Some people just like to do it the other way around, ordering some drinks first, then some snacks and the like.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
"It's my treat, you're welcome."
Kemi looked at the drinks Jason ordered, and there was an obvious misunderstanding.
Really a gentle person.
Even considering that I am a student and my income is not high, I ordered these cheap drinks!
After drinking, he will definitely use the excuse that you invited me just now, and now I am here to invite you, to order again.
Although a bit old-fashioned, the gentle Jason looks a little handsome.
"Do you remember it all?"
Jason ignored Kemi and looked at the waiter instead.
"Well, I remembered it all."
"Do you need anything else?"
After the waiter nodded, he asked again.
"Don't want what you ordered just now, take the rest."
Jason answered.
"what?"
The waiter was taken aback.
"Don't want what you ordered just now, take the rest."
"By the way, your ice cream is good, give me thirty copies."
Jason repeated it, emphasizing.
"Are you sure, except for the one you didn't want just now, you'll have one copy?"
"And ice cream, do you want thirty?"
When the waiter spoke, his voice was trembling, and his wide eyes were full of disbelief.
If he hadn't met Kemi, he would have thought that Jason was here to make a mess.
The waiter was incredible.
Kemi was equally unbelievable.
She looked at Jason as if stupid.
She hoped that Jason would turn his head and smile at her at this time and say: 'Hey, little fool, I lied to you, it's a joke. ’
Then, she really saw Jason turned his head and bared his teeth at her.
His pale teeth shone with a faint cold glow under the light.
It was as if Kemi saw a great white shark rushing towards her and opening its bloody mouth.
"Hey, okay, you're welcome!"
After Jason finished speaking, he waved his hand at the waiter, signaling to hurry up.
"right away!"
The waiter turned around and ran towards the back kitchen.
The turnover of the night shift is linked to his bonus.
Looking at the distant waiter, Kemi raised her hand and tried to stop it, but in the end, she still didn't shout.
Treat, she said.
She can't go back at all now.
Can……
She doesn't have enough money!
Although she didn't know how much the dishes on the entire menu cost, she could confirm that the money her father gave her just now was not enough for the thirty ice creams.
How to do?
Am I going to be left to do the dishes?
Is it too late to say regrets now?
Kemi looked at Jason sitting calmly and twisted uncomfortably.
She really wants to call her dad now.
However, she worries that she will disturb her father by doing so.
And just in Kemi's anxiety, the dishes came up one by one.
This 24-hour restaurant is a fusion restaurant.
Simply put, from Wellington steak, Tomahawk steak, to charcoal-grilled pork belly, pan-fried lamb chops, to hand-grabbed lamb, stewed beef brisket with potatoes, and egg fried rice.
Although not possible to have everything.
But there are some features.
Also, the chefs here are doing a pretty good job.
Especially that tomahawk steak.
When the waiter asked whether to cut it, Jason waved his hand, and he was completely stunned. He ignored the temperature and directly held up the Tomahawk steak. Suddenly, the aroma of the beef was fragrant.
Jason restrained his mouth and took a bite.
Juice overflowing.
The sour beef is more and more tender and delicious. The lemon salt and herbs are mixed to form a special steak sauce that accompanies Jason's chewing and begins to dance on the taste buds.
A touch of acid, stimulating saltiness to some extent.
The chopped mushrooms in the herb juice are quite crunchy.
Did you fry it ahead of time?
Jason thought, opened his mouth again, and completely pulled the remaining beef from the rib.
Even with restraint, a Tomahawk steak is a matter of two bites for Jason.
wrong!
Yes, three!
Jason threw the rib into his mouth and started chewing.
At the same time, he picked up the knife and fork beside him and began to cut the steak of Wellington.
The meringue was easily cut open, and the aroma of black pepper and beef was sprayed out directly.
not an adjective.
But really "spray"!
A hot steam remaining in the pastry, with the touch of the knife and fork——
laugh!
It sprayed out, filling the dining table.
"Did the puff pastry be layered on purpose?"
"good!"
Jason put the beef in his mouth as he spoke.
It is worth noting that he tasted the mushroom sauce again.
Still crispy and delicious.
Although it was the second attempt, Jason was not the least bit bored.
The charcoal-grilled pork belly was served with a small stove. The three layers of pork belly sizzled on the grate. Jason picked it up and dipped it in cumin and chili noodles and threw it into his mouth.
The grease came out in a flash.
It was a feeling of seeing old friends again after a long absence.
wonderful!
Brings tears to my eyes.
Can't help but get an extra piece.
The pan-fried lamb chops after that were different.
It's tender.
As tender as when he first saw him, he quietly touched the girl's hand.
The olive oil completely locks the juice in the lamb chops, making it unusually tender. The peppercorns remove the odor of the lamb chops. The chopped basil leaves and the chopped parsley make the lamb chops extra. The embellishment and the three-point crispness are like a girl who shyly pulled out her hand and stared into your eyes, angry, shy but still wanting to talk.
Unforgettable.
In front of hand-grabbing mutton, stewed beef brisket with potatoes, and egg fried rice, it is the pinnacle of performance.
The soup of stewed beef brisket with potatoes is poured on the egg fried rice, grab a few large pieces of mutton, and put it on the egg fried rice. No ceremony is required, just lick your hands, pick up the spoon and pull the rice, and shove it into your mouth. .
The mutton is still shy at the moment.
Beef is also reserved.
Only the rice was grainy and slightly hard.
But that soup, but reconciles everything.
When the mutton and beef are mixed together and chewed, the shyness and restraint are quickly gone, and only the unrestrained and thick meat remains.
Snoring!
Jason was holding the plate, almost snorting.
five minutes!
From start to finish, in just five minutes!
A table of dishes was swept away!
Kemi was stunned again.
Not only Kemi, but the men and women at the table in the distance were also attracted by Jason.
The girl who had always been timid and fearful looked at Jason in a daze.
And the man was surprised when he saw Jason.
Jason noticed.
However, he ignored it.
He put down the plate and shouted at the waiter who was about to serve him ice cream, "Just do it again."
Cammy shuddered.
She calculated the food just now, and even if it was to wash the dishes, she had to wash it for two months.
Again, I'm afraid she won't be able to leave this restaurant this year.
Staying here to wash dishes on New Year's Eve?
She absolutely doesn't want to!
You know, this year is a special New Year's Eve!
She doesn't want to!
Or just slip away?
Kemi thought, and shook her head the next moment.
If she just slipped away like this, she would be too embarrassed.
What's more, even if she wanted to slip away, where should she go?
Her father made her wait at Jason's place.
The dilemma is to describe Kemi at this time.
After experiencing the panic a few days ago and the despair a few hours ago, she once again realized another important point in the adult world.
In the same way, she is also learning the adult solution.
Ugh.
Cammy sighed resignedly.
She was ready to wash the dishes.
Never make any promises in the future!
The girl told herself in her heart.
At this moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open.
Four men with vicious faces walked in.
As soon as they came in, their eyes were locked on a table of men and women in the distance, and the girl immediately turned pale and trembled.
Four people gathered around.
"Do you know what the fate of running away is?"
One of the four grinned at the girl.
The remaining three people stared fiercely at the middle-aged man, threatening each other with their eyes.
Then, seven or eight people walked in.
The people who came after were just like the people who came before, they were all evil-faced people.
The man in the leather jacket was obviously the leader of the group. The leader first glanced at the 'controlled' target, and then glanced at Jason and Kemi.
When he saw Jason's strong figure, the leader frowned, and fear flashed in his eyes.
However, when he saw Kemi, such fear disappeared without a trace.
"hey-hey!"
"I found two items, the boss's goods!"
"It's really good!"
Amidst the malicious laughter, the leading man took out a dagger and walked towards Jason and Kemi step by step.
His eyes were fixed on Kemi, the dagger in his hand was pointed at the back of Jason's neck, and his mouth even threatened directly:
"Hey, man, if you don't want to get in trouble, don't move."
"Otherwise you……"
