Chapter 23 Seeing The Cheating Couple.
"I didn't know you own this place." Zhou Liying removed the arm of Tang Ying from around her shoulder and smiled at him.
"Now you know." Tang Ying smiled. "This humble restaurant belongs to me and I am lucky to have you here."
"I thought I will have a grumpy day in Shanghai after my encounter with Miss Lu, but now, your news has made my day." Zhou Liying grinned. "I can't wait to eat the delicious dishes cooked by your hands."
"I am at your service ma'am." Tang Ying mocked a bow and directed Zhou Liying toward the seat which was specially reserved for them.
Tang Ying was a friend of Zhou Bingbing. Zhou Liying met him back in London. He was an excellent cook and that was how he and Zhou Liying clicked.
They both shared many recipes. Zhou Yonge also waited for dinner time whenever Zhou Liying and Tang Ying were cooking together.
One year back, Tang Ying shifted to Shanghai and opened his restaurant. Due to the magic of his hands, his restaurant became a top-rated restaurant in the city in within a year.
"You have your seat here. I will cook my restaurant's signature dish for you." Tang Ying looked proud of his dish.
"I can't wait to have it." Zhou Liying looked at him with eagerness.
"Surprised to see him here?" Zhou Bingbing teased, aware of the love of Zhou Liying toward the dishes of Tang Ying.
"Very. At least I will not regret my decision to be here in Shanghai, knowing my favourite chef is here. Otherwise, that female dog has spoiled my night."
Zhou Bingbing chuckled. "From when are you affected by dogs like her? You know a dog likes to bark. She is a lowly socialist, trying to get attention by fighting with you."
"I know." Zhou Liying rolled her eyes and looked out from the window when her eyes fell upon the familiar-looking couple.
"Where are you looking at?"
Zhou Bingbing followed the line of sight of Zhou Liying. She shook her head when she saw Fan Yifeng and Qin Yutong standing opposite their window.
"Today isn't your day. First, you met that b! tch and now you are seeing that scoundrel couple."
"I have expected to see them today." Zhou Liying shook her head. "I know my luck. I expected to cross my path with them in within a moment after stepping my feet in Shanghai."
Zhou Liying did not turn her face away from the window, observing the intimacy between Fan Yifeng and Qin Yutong.
Weird! In the past, she thought she would feel pain or guilt upon seeing both getting intimate. But now, when she witnessed them, she felt nothing. It was like seeing strangers getting intimate with one another.
"They haven't changed much. Fan Yifeng is still handsome like usual and Qin Yutong, still a beauty." Zhou Liying observed and then turned to look at Zhou Bingbing.
"Tell me about them. I want to know how they are doing after all these years."
"They are doing well." Zhou Bingbing snickered. "I have heard, soon they will be getting married."
"They aren't married until now?" Zhou Liying asked with surprise and looked out of the window, at the vanishing sight of the couple.
"Nah, they are not. As per my information, Qin Yutong joined the film industry, and this was not liked by her in-laws. They opposed this marriage. Only Fan Yifeng stood beside her like a wall. He…"
Zhou Bingbing stopped talking when she observed a waiter walking toward them with a bottle of wine.
"Miss, mister Tang has sent his favourite wine for you." Zhou Liying nodded her head and asked the waiter to serve them the wine.
"Then how did his parents agree now?" Zhou Liying inquired once the waiter was gone.
"It's rumoured that Qin Yutong is pregnant."
"That can be the reason." Zhou Liying nodded her head and took a sip of her wine when she remembered something. "You said she is an actress, then she must have acted in the movie of Kris, hasn't she?"
"Nah she hasn't. Do you think Kris will prefer to direct a movie with her in it?" Zhou Bingbing twitched her nose. "Kris was directing a movie and the producers selected Qin Yutong as the female lead. You know what, Kris walked out of the movie."
"That's the Kris I know?" Zhou Liying chuckled. "So, when are you taking me to his place?"
"Whenever you want." Zhou Liying smiled. "I am sure he will be happy to see you back."
"I know."
"What are you ladies talking about?" Tang Ying arrived at their booth and asked the waiter to serve the dishes. Meanwhile, he took his seat on the only vacant seat, beside Zhou Liying, opposite Min Yue.
"We were talking about Fan Yifeng and then about Kris." Stars appeared in the eyes of Zhou BingBing, thinking about her fiancé.
"Arghh! That jerk." Tang Ying cursed. He had heard about the story of the party where Fan Yifeng insulted Zhou Liying. He hated that man for hurting his friend.
"You know him?" Zhou Liying looked at him with surprise.
"Who does not know him? He is one of the top businessmen of Shanghai." Tang Ying picked up an empty plate and filled it with a few pieces of Momo. "Every once in a while, you can see his face in a magazine or the television."
"I must say, he loves to show his face on television and show off his wealth." Tang Ying placed the plate in front of Zhou Liying. "Now stop thinking about him and taste my dish. Tell me, how it is."
Zhou Liying nodded her head and picked up a Momo using her chopstick. "Mm, your skills have improved Tang Ying. This Momo is delicious."
"I am glad you liked it." Tang Ying grinned and served the plate to the other two ladies.
"You have to tell me the recipe." Zhou Liying spoke, enjoying the rich taste of Momo in her mouth.
"I will tell you. But you have to pay for it."
"How much do you want?"
"Two million won."
"Done."
"So easily, without bargaining." Tang Ying looked at her with surprise.
From what he remembered, last time, he demanded a few thousand for telling her the recipe. She created a big fuss at that time. And today, she agreed just like that. He was having a tough time gulping down this piece of news.
