Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 18 Eating Barbecue

The two of them took the subway for two stops and arrived at the shopping mall that Yang Mi mentioned.

It covers a large area and has a complete range of items. After the two arrived, they went straight to the men's formal wear store on the second floor.

After a round of shopping, Yang Mi pulled Chen Nuo's clothes and asked tentatively: "How much money have you prepared? The things here are quite expensive, how about we go to another place?"

Chen Nuo still had more than 4 yuan in his bank account, so his budget for selling clothes this time was within 5000 yuan. After a round of shopping, it should be more than enough to buy an ordinary suit. But he didn't say it clearly, just said: "Since we are here, why don't we go in and try it out?"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes and looked at him, "Then... let's give it a try?"

Finally, the two chose a store that didn't look so luxurious and walked in. The salesperson was very enthusiastic and didn't look down on them because of their age. Chen Nuo liked a very energetic light yellow suit, but Yang Mi firmly opposed it and insisted that he try the black one.

When Chen Nuo walked out of the fitting room wearing that waist-hugging suit with straight trouser lines, the salesperson couldn't help but say to Yang Mi: "Your boyfriend is so handsome, even more handsome than Hua Ze Lei."

Yang Mi smiled and said, "He is not my boyfriend, but I think he and Daoming Si are of the same type."

"Dao Ming Si is not as good-looking as him. His face is much longer than his."

"really."

Chen Nuo approached and saw Yang Mi and the big sister selling clothes talking about something. They looked quite strange, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about? You look so happy."

Yang Mi said, "We were talking about Meteor Garden. Do you prefer Hua Ze Lei or Dao Ming Si?"

"I don't like any of them." Chen Nuo walked to the mirror, looked around, and thought it was pretty average, so he asked Yang Mi, "Does it make you look a little old?"

Yang Mi frowned and said, "Do you have any misunderstanding about old age? I think it's pretty good."

"Yes, handsome boy, if you walk out wearing this, 100% of people will turn around to look at you." The saleswoman seemed to be from Guangdong, with a slight accent, and said, "I think you look like a star in this, you can even act in a movie. Everyone says that a man must have a good suit in his wardrobe, handsome boy, this is the one for you. And the mall has just opened, and they are having a promotion, 99 off for purchases over 999, it's a good deal."

Yang Mi shouted, "How can this be a good deal? It's only 20 off!"

The clerk said, "One 999 will get you 20 off, but two 2s will get you 999 off. Let me see how much your set costs. Ah, 40, that's 5999 off. 120 is a lot."

Yang Mi shook her head and said, "Not much, not much."

While Yang Mi and the clerk were arguing, Chen Nuo looked around in the mirror and thought it was okay. He was too lazy to shop anymore and said directly: "I'll buy this set. You help me pack it."

Yang Mi turned her head and widened her eyes: "Ah? Are you really buying it?"

What else? Did the girl think he was going in to try it out?
Although it was slightly over budget, Chen Nuo felt it was acceptable since there was a discount after all.

The two of them bought some clothes and were going to find a place to eat in this mall. As they were walking, Yang Mi suddenly asked, "Chen Nuo, is your family rich?"

"Well-off."

"Bullshit, I spent 6000 yuan on a set of clothes. It would be strange if you are not rich. I should have thought of it earlier. Uncle Zhang is so rich, your family must be rich too!"

“It’s really different.”

"What's the difference? Oh, are you pretending to be a poor nobleman? Actually, you don't have to pretend. If you are really a nobleman, you don't have to pretend to be poor. I have no problem with that."

Chen Nuo actually always felt that the relationship between him and Yang Mi was quite awkward. She hadn't lived here for such a long time before, so Chen Nuo didn't quite believe her claim that she had gone out to work. She probably still felt embarrassed and thought it was awkward to be in the same room with him.

Today he asked her to go out with him to buy clothes, in fact, he wanted to use this as an excuse to treat her to a meal, as a way to further ease the atmosphere between the two of them after practicing singing together. Now Chen Nuo felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was obviously more natural than before, because Yang Mi started to make jokes.

Chen Nuo couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, then I won't pretend anymore. I'm going to be the rich man. Let's go. I'll treat you to a meal."

"Okay, I won't be polite to you, sir."

The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the dining floor. Chen Nuo picked a nice barbecue restaurant and walked in with Yang Mi.

It was said that they were eating at a lavish restaurant, but after the two of them sat down, Yang Mi still softened her heart, looked at the prices on the menu, stuck out her tongue, and whispered to Chen Nuo, "Wow, it's so expensive. Do you really want to eat here?"

"It's okay, just eat."

Yang Mi looked very happy. She flipped through the several pages of the menu again and again. In the end, she ordered two meat dishes, both of the cheapest quality.

Chen Nuo ordered the most expensive dishes and asked the waiter to come and take the bill.

While waiting for the food to be served, Yang Mi sipped her hot tea and asked, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, are you not going to apply to the Film Academy?"

"Take the test."

"Then where are you going? Why did you buy such an expensive suit?"

Chen Nuo said honestly: "Go for an interview and make a movie."

"Movie?" Yang Mi unconsciously raised her voice. She was startled and looked around immediately. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she asked anxiously, "What movie?"

"I don't know what movie it was. My teacher in the training class introduced it to me and said it was directed by a Hong Kong director."

"From Hong Kong?" Yang Mi's voice was louder than before, "Is this true?!"

"Hey, I haven't even started yet. Now they just want me to go over and show it to others, and I'm just a minor supporting role."

Yang Mi curled her lips and said, "That's quite impressive. Did you really cut your hair for the movie?"

"correct."

"What movie? A period film?"

"No, it's just a modern drama, directed by a senior from the Film Academy. I don't know why he liked me. It's a small production, and we shot it in Beijing for more than a month."

"Oh." Yang Mi nodded, with an expression on her face that was hard to tell whether it was relief or disappointment. "I thought it was... It's okay, let's work hard together. Sooner or later, we will be filming a movie directed by a big director, you play the male lead, and I play the female lead! The movies directed by Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, as well as those from Hong Kong, Wang Jiawei, Chen Kexin, and Xu Ke, let's act them out one by one!"

"Row!"

At this time, the meat came up. Yang Mi seemed really hungry. He didn't say anything more. He ate while grilling, and hardly stopped using his chopsticks. The wagyu beef here is quite authentic, melting in the mouth, tender and juicy. Although Chen Nuo was not hungry, he couldn't help but eat several pieces. In the end, several plates of beef were almost all finished by Yang Mi alone. This shows that some things really need to eat meat to grow.

When they finally paid the bill, the two of them spent more than 600 yuan. When Yang Mi heard this number, her face turned red. After leaving the house, she said to Chen Nuo, "If I become famous and make money in the future, I will definitely treat you to a better meal."

Chen Nuo smiled: "It's a deal."
