Chapter 365: The Lightbulb's Awakening (1/2) Ye Junlang smiled calmly and said, "Perhaps I went to France many times before. Under that language environment, I learned it naturally. It's not difficult actually, with a language environment, if you study seriously, you can learn quickly too." Ye Junlang naturally wouldn't reveal the real reason. As the Dragon Shadow King and having received special training from the special forces, for a qualified agent, mastering multiple languages is the most basic requirement. After a pause, Ye Junlang continued, "Xiao Duo, if you want to learn French, I can give you some oral practice during your free time at the company. In about a month, your spoken French level could go up a notch." "Well, that's not a bad idea either." A rare smile graced Mi Duo's face, which resembled that of an ice beauty. This really made Lin Yingchang seethe with envy. He felt like a superfluous person, or like a light bulb, shining brightly but serving no purpose. "Ahem—" Lin Yingchang coughed to clear his throat, in order to emphasize his presence, he said, "The taste of the dish is still quite good." However, Ye Junlang and Milo ignored him completely, continuing their conversation as if he were simply air. Lin Yingchang immediately got upset. Didn't he pay for this meal himself? You are the master, okay? Aren't you supposed to be circling me? Because Mido was present, he couldn't vent his anger. He thought for a moment and then turned to Ye Junlang with a smile, asking, "Mr. Ye, are you working at the Su Group? I wonder what department you're in?" "Me? I'm actually just a security guard..." Ye Junlang stated frankly. "Security guard?!" Lin Yingchang was taken aback at first, then couldn't help but burst into laughter. “Hahaha… Oh, I don't mean it that way, I'm not laughing at you. I know a very interesting security guard, and when you mentioned security guards, it reminded me of him, so I couldn't help but laugh." Such a lame excuse, of course Ye Junlang wouldn't believe it. However, he had a calm expression and didn't seem to think much of it. A man with a strong and confident heart would never mind such ignorant scorn and ridicule. In his eyes, Lin Yingchang was just like the opposite of how his name was pronounced—a fly that disturbed his peace. The only opponents worthy of catching his eye were those legendary powerhouses from the dark world. In front of these legendary powerhouses, Lin Yingchang wasn't even a fart. "What's wrong with the security guard? Is there something wrong with him?" Mi Duo looked at Lin Yingchang and said coldly. Though Miduo usually doesn't get along with Ye Junlang at the Su Corporation, she knows deep down that during the recent terrifying crisis that hit the Su Corporation, if it weren't for Ye Junlang's timely intervention, she wouldn't even be sure if she would have survived. So she was always grateful to Ye Junlang in her heart. However, due to her cold personality, she hadn't expressed her gratitude. She had originally planned to treat Ye Junlang to a meal tonight as a thank you for his help last time. Who would have thought that Lin Yingchang would actually follow her and end up at the same restaurant. This made Lin Yingchang seem rather condescending towards the security guard, which angered her. Unconsciously, she was also defending Ye Junlang. Lin Yingchang hurriedly said, "Xiaoduo, you misunderstood. I didn't look down on the security guards. Really, absolutely not. On the contrary, I think the profession of security guard is also very good," Ye Junlang smiled and said, "I wonder what Mr. Lin is doing?" Lin Yingchang, hearing this question, Chapter 365: The Light Bulb's Awakening (2/2) The person immediately perked up and said, "Right now, I'm mainly in a learning phase. I'm at my father's company, following up on a real estate project that's being developed. This is a project worth hundreds of billions! My father wants me to start from the ground up, learn and grow step by step, so that I can be capable of handling things independently in the future." Ye Junlang nodded and said, "This is very good. It seems that Mr. Lin will have a bright future." "Where, where? I feel like I'm still young. I should learn more at the grassroots level and endure some hardship." Lin Yingchang said humbly, but his eyes couldn't hide a hint of pride as he looked at Mi Duo. But Mido completely ignored him, and from her expression, it seemed she hadn't even listened to a word he said. Then the main course arrived. Pan-seared steak, foie gras, black truffle and caviar, more expensive than gold, all came up one after another. The main course has arrived, and the Lafite Rothschild is well-aerated and ready to be enjoyed. That caviar, one serving would be luxurious enough for most people, but Ye Junlang ordered ten servings in one go. He's currently holding a spoon and eating it spoonful by spoonful. This way of eating caviar in large bites is indeed very satisfying. "Come, come, let's drink! Let us first toast to Master Lin, thanking him for his generous hospitality." Lin Yingchang also raised his glass, and was about to make a humble toast, but before he could utter a word, Ye Junlang had already thrown back the red wine in his glass with a gulp. It seemed that he wasn't satisfied yet, Ye Junlang poured himself another full glass of red wine. Lin Yingchang was dumbfounded - could this man really be drinking Lafite as if it were tap water? Should you take a sip at a time to truly taste the rich flavor of red wine? What's the matter with this guy? Where do you even drink red wine like that? And it's an 82 Lafite! It's like chewing on peonies, utterly vulgar! According to this drinking method, forget five bottles, even ten wouldn't be enough! "Xiao Duo, come have a drink with me." Ye Junlang smiled, clinked glasses with Mido again, then took another gulp, chugging the full cup of red wine down in one go. "This is real Lafite, not fake wine, it's delicious," Ye Junlang said with a smile. Then they continued eating, savoring everything from foie gras to black truffles and caviar. They ate mouthful after mouthful, relishing every bite, so much so that even Mi Duo across the table was mesmerized. Ye Junlang had the waiter open a third bottle of wine, and chatted with Mido while eating. Lin Yingchang wanted to say something, but no one paid him any attention even when he spoke. This made Lin Yingchang feel extremely stifled. Seeing Ye Junlang drink gulp after gulp, he felt a pang of pain. This large gulp must have cost several thousand yuan at least, and that was his money! To the point where he felt that sipping politely like this was too much of a disadvantage? He thought to himself, how could he possibly make up for his losses if he didn't drink at least a bit more? This was bad enough, but the key point was that Mi Duo ignored him throughout the entire time and didn't even talk to him. Instead, she was very engaged when Ye Junlang talked about his travel experiences to some of the countries she had visited. This made Lin Yingchang feel more and more like he was just a light bulb! It's bad enough that it's just a lightbulb, but the key issue is this meal. I have to pay for it myself! What kind of situation is this? Lin Yingchang's heart was bleeding, and his face grew increasingly grim. First Release by Chinese Novel Network |
