Chapter 879: Disrupted Date

Just after walking out of the police station, Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his bandaged right hand, moved it a bit, and found that it was not a big deal.

That guy was actually unlucky. He was beaten so badly by himself. Li Yi didn't know why he was so impulsive, but fortunately, this guy had no energy to pursue anything, and it was his fault. He broke the law. Li Yi was just reasonable self-defense. There was no murder lawsuit, so naturally there would be no big deal.

Xu Qingnan looked at Li Yi's hand with a little distress and said, "Why don't we go back first, your hand..."

Li Yi smiled and said, "Sister, it's okay, let's go, let's go to a restaurant!"

As he spoke, Li Yi pulled Xu Qingnan's hand and walked towards a street not far away.

This police station is located near the city center, not far from the city center. This street is full of big restaurants and many Western restaurants.

When he saw the Western restaurant, Li Yi's eyes suddenly lit up. Xu Qingnan should have never eaten Western food, right?

Then try this!

"Let's go, sister, let's go eat Western food!"

Xu Qingnan said awkwardly: "I don't know how to eat Western food. I've never had it before. I just read about it in books..."

Li Yi smiled and said: "What's the matter?

I've only read about it in books. I have a chance this time. It's okay to try it, right?"

Xu Qingnan was still hesitating, but Li Yi had already pulled her and opened the door of the Western restaurant.

Because it was a weekday and it happened to be the peak time for dining, there were not many people in the Western restaurant.

The waiter in the restaurant saw Li Yi and Xu Qingnan coming in, and came up with a professional smile and said, "Do you have a reservation?"

Li Yi shook his head, and then the waiter said, "Please come with me! There is a window seat here!"

In fact, many Western restaurants don't have so many rules, such as no entry for untidy clothes. It is possible that Western restaurants abroad have this rule, but most Western restaurants in China are opened by Longguo people themselves. They buy Western food, but the rules are still Longguo's rules. Anyone who comes is a guest. As long as you pay for the meal, you will be treated equally. Even if you come to eat in a beggar's outfit, as long as you can pay, you can eat whatever you want.

Li Yi first helped Xu Qingnan pull the stool away, and then he sat on the chair. After the waiter brought the menu, Li Yi handed it to Xu Qingnan first.

Xu Qingnan obviously didn't know what to choose, and Li Yi smiled and said, "Two steaks cooked to medium rare, one pan-fried chicken breast, and a bowl of corn soup!"

Xu Qingnan ordered a cheesecake, and then it was done.

The waiter knew from one look that Li Yi had definitely eaten Western food before, and had eaten it a lot, and knew the basic etiquette and dishes. Xu Qingnan had obviously never been here before, and it should be her first time, but the waiter did not show a look of contempt for this, but was a little envious of Xu Qingnan for having such a good boyfriend.

Mainly because Li Yi and Xu Qingnan were too young, they didn't look like they were already married, and they didn't wear rings when they went out this time.

Xu Qingnan looked at the knife and fork on the table, feeling a little strange, as if it was different from what he read in the book...

Li Yi smiled and said, "Eating here doesn't follow those rules. Just know that the knife is on the left and the fork is on the right. We are all Dragon people, so there is no need to pretend to be so high-end. In fact, most people like to eat steak with chopsticks even after cutting it!"

Li Yi himself is like this. If a good steak is placed in front of him, he would rather cut it all and eat it with chopsticks and dip it in sauce. This is a habit in his bones, which is not so easy to change. Besides, it's just eating, so why pay so much attention to it?

Steaks are rare, medium-rare, medium-rare, seven-well, and nine-well. There are considerable differences between them. To be honest, rare is completely raw, and it is still bloody beef. Most people can't enjoy this. Rare is better, at least the surface is cooked, but the inside is still raw meat with blood.

Medium-rare means the meat is well-done on the outside and pink inside. In the medium-rare state, there will still be a trace of blood when you take a bite. Medium-rare means most of the meat is cooked. Most people will order medium-rare. Maybe foreigners prefer to eat raw meat, but the Chinese basically all order medium-rare to medium-rare. Medium-rare means almost well-done. If you are eating steak for the first time, medium-rare is better.

Although the meat is not very tender, at least there will be no blood.

For Li Yi, well-done is delicious. If it is rare, he probably can't swallow it.

Soon the dishes were served. It was the first time for Xu Qingnan to eat something as expensive as steak, so he didn't know where to start. Li Yi simply brought Xu Qingnan's plate over, helped Xu Qingnan cut all the steaks into small pieces, and then returned the plate to Xu Qingnan, while he cut and ate.

The starting price of this steak is around 10 yuan, which is not cheap. Most people cannot afford this price. In fact, the price of beef is currently the highest, followed by mutton, and pork is the cheapest.

Pork is usually used to make canned food or ham sausage. If mutton or beef is used, the cost is undoubtedly not affordable for ordinary people.

There is another reason. Beef and mutton are better when grilled or shabu-shabu.

Xu Qingnan, who tried western food for the first time, was obviously very interested in this special cooking taste. The dishes in this restaurant made people feel that they had a bright look and feel. The dishes were beautifully presented and very eye-catching.

Moreover, the dishes tasted very good and were full of aftertaste. For Li Yi, the quality was good, and the service attitude of the waiter was also very good.

After finishing the western food, according to Li Yi's plan, he would go to the cinema for a walk.

Watching movies and eating western food are the formal dates. The cinema in Jiangbei City is separated from the western restaurant by a Jiangbei Central Square. You can also take a few photos of Xu Qingnan in the square along the way, which is a good choice.

All the way to the central square, the square covers a large area. Many people are strolling and walking in the square. Among them, there should be many local residents. Few tourists from other places will come here, because there is nothing to see except the landmark building in the center of the square.

But thirty years later, this is the largest flea market in the old city. It is full of traces of time everywhere. Although things are not cheap, it is a good attraction thirty years later.
