After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy
Chapter 56 There is a mouse
Lin Man choked and glared at Pei Yan. She was too lazy to talk to him anymore and walked past him and went straight back to her seat.
He picked up the fork and stabbed the steak on the plate hard, as if he was competing with someone.
"Why did you take so long? Is there something wrong?"
Si Lianghua picked up the knife and fork and put the cut meat naturally into Lin Man's plate, looking at her with concern.
Lin Man thought of Pei Yan's face that deserved a beating and shook her head. "There was a mouse in the bathroom. It scared me."
"mouse?"
Si Lianghua frowned and looked in the direction of the bathroom in confusion.
After a moment of contemplation, he withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to continue cutting meat for Lin Man.
"In that case, let's go to another restaurant next time and take you to try Cantonese cuisine. Does Manman like Cantonese cuisine?"
"I like it." Lin Man is not picky about food. She will be bold in trying new things in the future and try all kinds of delicacies from land and sea to make this trip worthwhile.
Make the most of the good times!
After the meal, the waiter brought up the fruit. Lin Man excitedly held a fork and watched the waiter approaching.
She has always loved eating fruits and always orders a fruit plate wherever she goes.
But when the waiter brought a fruit platter with dents all over it, Lin Man almost couldn't hold back the expression on her face. A purple banana lay on top of a rotten walnut, and the sliced papaya had turned dark red from oxidation. None of them were intact, and they all looked horrible.
Lin Man's pretty eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and she looked at the waiter in confusion, "Why are all these fruits rotten?"
She was hosting a thank you dinner to thank someone for helping her! And a five-star hotel served rotten fruit on the table?
"Is this the kind of fruit plate you serve to your guests at a five-star hotel?"
Seeing that the waiter did not answer, Lin Man asked again, but because Si Lianghua was present, she suppressed her anger.
The waiter did not show any trace of guilt on his face and his attitude was respectful and kind.
"Madam, Mr. Pei said you were having dinner alone with another man, so you will be in trouble!"
After the waiter finished explaining, he removed the burning roses from the table when he left, leaving the table that was originally filled with petals bare.
"How ridiculous!" Lin Man threw the fork on the table. She couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to go find Pei Yan to argue!
But he was stopped by Si Lianghua. The man smiled and stretched out his hand to take the rotten fruit plate next to him, "Just give this to me, you should eat more vegetables."
There was a faint smile in Si Lianghua's black eyes, which could make people's anger disappear at a glance and they would never get angry again.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you." Lin Man smiled apologetically at Si Lianghua, picked up the fruit plate and dumped it all into the trash can. Her tone was calm and indifferent, but she was cursing Pei Yan to death in her heart!
Si Lianghua smiled and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, saying, "It's okay, but I've never seen Ah Yan lose his composure before. Seeing him lose his composure today, I just felt it was quite new and rare."
Lin Man forked a small tomato from the salad and put it into her mouth, she smiled and didn't understand what Si Lianghua was talking about.
"He's like this every day. He gets convulsed at any time. What's so new about this?"
Si Lianghua smiled without saying anything, just looking at the rotten fruit in the trash can meaningfully.
After the plates were removed, Si Lianghua took out two contracts and handed them to Lin Man.
"what is this?"
Lin Man took it and looked at it, confusion showing in her eyes.
Si Lianghua smiled gently, "This is given to you by Director Li Hong. You saved his granddaughter, so he gave you two movies as a token of his gratitude."
Lin Man looked at the two contracts in her hands. They were all about the heroine's role, and the production team had already signed them. She only needed to agree and sign before the contracts would take effect.
Lin Man looked at the contract in his hand with interest, "You accepted my favor, and now we owe each other nothing?" Is he afraid that she will become dependent on his family?
Pushing the contract back, Lin Man said, "I don't need this. Please return it to Director Li Hong for me. Saving her granddaughter was just a coincidence. Besides, human life is at stake. I don't need any thank you gift."
Si Lianghua looked at the returned contract with a hint of surprise, then looked at Lin Man with a smile, thinking that this should have been hers.
Lin Man didn't get to eat the fruit plate she ordered, and was provoked by Pei Yan's words, so she immediately took out the food delivery app and ordered two servings of fruit salad. Si Lianghua couldn't eat any more, so the two servings of fruit salad were naturally hers.
He was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly at Lin Man who was still eating fruit with her head down.
"Manman, I actually want to persuade you to accept it."
"Why?" Lin Man bit the apple, her eyes full of confusion.
Si Lianghua smiled and said, "This circle is small and chaotic, but every circle has its own rules. On the day of the dinner, you saved Li Hongsun's daughter. Everyone was watching. Those who had grudges against him and those who had done him a favor would reconsider you."
"If you accept his thank-you gift, everyone will know about it, and your gratitude or resentment will be resolved, which will save trouble."
Lin Man paused with her hand holding the spoon, pondering the deeper meaning of Si Lianghua's words. She had indeed not thought of this level. As a newcomer, she was still too immature. However, Si Lianghua, who was deeply involved in the vortex of business, understood this well.
Lin Man was a little distressed. She really didn't want any thank you gift. She just did what she thought was right.
"Do you really have to accept it?"
Before attending the dinner, Lin Man admired Li Hong. He started from scratch and worked hard in the entertainment industry for 40 years to reach his current position. She admired this man's determination and perseverance, and his tolerance that ordinary people could not.
But since the dinner, Li Hong has never shown up, and even her granddaughter has not shown up. When he showed up again, he was trying to distance himself from her and give her a thank-you gift. Lin Man was disappointed.
Si Lianghua knew what Lin Man was thinking, but he still said, "You are just a newcomer, you can't bear so many eyes watching you, listen to me, take it with confidence, it will be good for you."
"Okay." Lin Man quickly picked up the contract, signed it, and handed it back to Si Lianghua.
Li Hong asked someone to pass it on because he didn't want to be too involved with her. The young director who was full of vigor and vitality at the time had to become vulgar.
.....
When Lin Man returned home, she saw Pei Yan sitting in the living room reading a newspaper. She turned around to look at the clock hanging in the living room, glanced at Pei Yan strangely, changed her shoes and went upstairs.
"Are you full?"
The man who had been looking down at the newspaper and had not spoken a word suddenly spoke in a deep voice.
Pei Yan looked at Lin Man, who had already walked to the stairs and was about to go upstairs, with a dark face! This woman is becoming more and more unruly now. It's okay for her to come home so late, but she left without saying a word when she saw him!
It would have been fine if Pei Yan didn't say anything. As soon as he opened his mouth, Lin Man immediately thought of the plate of rotten fruit!
She rolled her eyes unhappily and said, "Of course I'm full. The food in Mr. Pei's restaurant is delicious. Lianghua and I ate a lot!"
Hurry up and close it down! This restaurant is owned by a bastard! Lin Man didn't show it on her face, but she cursed Pei Yan to death in her heart!
Pei Yan was not angry when he heard this. He lowered his head and flipped through the newspaper in his hand, with a smile on his lips: "I'm glad that Miss Lin is willing to honor me."
Lin Man glanced at Pei Yan as if she had seen a ghost, turned around and went upstairs, not understanding why Pei Yan was so easy to talk to today.
She was about to take off the necklace from her neck when she suddenly received a deduction record on her mobile phone.
Nineteen thousand eight!
