Chapter 79 Zhou Ye can get his point.
Chapter 79 Zhou Ye can get his point.
Zhou Ye's gaze swept over Jiang Ye's face, and she said timidly, "Hello, Uncle!"
The voice was soft and gentle...
Jiang Ye's lips twitched, but due to the occasion, he could only nod expressionlessly.
Lin Xiaoman immediately introduced herself with a grin: "I'm his sister!"
Not to be outdone, Tian Xiwei grabbed Jiang Ye's arm and said, "I'm his girlfriend~"
People really laugh when they are speechless.
Jiang Ye took a deep breath, feeling the pain in his lower back intensify.
That little brat is always ruining his reputation. I'll make her settle the score for hitting someone yesterday.
Zhou Ye glanced at Jiang Ye secretly, then at Tian Xiwei who looked smug, and muttered to herself.
This uncle is terrifying...
His girlfriend looks much younger than him; it's like an older man dating a younger woman!
My sister works at his company, I hope he won't bully her.
Jiang Ye flung Tian Xiwei's hand away and said to Zhou Qisi and Zhou Ye, "This is my sister and her classmate. They just like to joke around. It's fate that we met. If you don't mind, would you like to eat together?"
"I...mind..." Tian Xiwei's words were cut short when she met Jiang Ye's cold eyes, and she swallowed the rest of her sentence, only able to mentally complain.
It's not like you're treating, so why are you pretending to be generous!
You son of a bitch!
I've saved up all this New Year's money for so many years!!!
But she could only force a smile: "...Of course I don't mind!"
Zhou Qisi didn't stand on ceremony and pulled Zhou Ye to sit down opposite him.
As soon as the five people sat down, Jiang Ye took the menu, glanced at it, and calmly said, "This, this, and this..."
Tian Xiwei pricked up her ears, feeling slightly relieved.
Fortunately, none of the dishes we ordered were the most expensive.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ye changed the subject, closed the menu and handed it to the waiter: "I don't want these, just one of each of the rest."
"puff"
Tian Xiwei couldn't catch her breath; her vision blurred, and she almost slipped off her chair.
Lin Xiaoman quickly caught her and whispered, "Hang in there, Xiaotian, my brother is rich!"
The restaurant served the food very quickly, probably because they were worried that the customers wouldn't be able to finish it and would return the dishes, so they expedited the service for their table. The table was packed full in less than half an hour.
Lin Xiaoman was the happiest eater, followed by Tian Xiwei.
I don't know if this girl has a huge appetite or if she's channeling her grief and anger into her food, she can eat a lot...
While eating, Zhou Qisi asked curiously, "President Jiang, I heard you're preparing for a new project recently?"
Jiang Ye: "Yes, a fantasy drama set in the Republican era."
Lin Xiaoman: "Brother, what are you talking about?"
"The story of 'Sito' is about an alien creature."
Jiang Ye cuts a steak, saying, "She awakens after 77 years of slumber and seeks her kind in modern society."
Tian Xiwei was stuffing a shrimp dumpling into her mouth when she heard this and "pfft," half a shrimp fell out of the corner of her mouth: "Hahaha, an alien?"
She slapped the table, laughing so hard she almost fell over. "How could there possibly be aliens in this world! I'm dying of laughter..."
Jiang Ye's face darkened.
"According to the latest statistics from Scientific American," he said coldly, flipping through his phone, "the probability that at least 36 intelligent civilizations exist in the Milky Way is over [percentage missing]."
"uncle!!!"
Zhou Ye suddenly braced herself on the dining table with both hands.
The tiramisu on the porcelain plate wobbled from her movements. "Do you also believe in aliens?"
The little girl's eyes shone as if she had stolen stars and stuffed them into them, her eyelashes fluttering in the light of the crystal chandelier.
Jiang Ye was taken aback. He was just using it as an excuse to film "Sito". He couldn't exactly say he didn't believe in aliens and then go and film aliens...
Fortunately, I recently talked to the screenwriter about Si Teng's script, and he had just brushed up on some science fiction knowledge.
"There are 2 trillion galaxies in the universe." He put down his knife and fork. "The Kepler telescope alone has discovered more than 3000 Earth-like planets."
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Zhou Ye move her chair forward a bit and continue her rambling, "For example, the Trappist-1 system, all seven planets..."
"Uncle is amazing! He even remembers Kepler's data!"
Zhou Ye suddenly clasped her hands together, "Last week, Nature magazine said that the planet may have liquid water!"
She turned and glared at Tian Xiwei, "Science fiction writer Liu Cixin once said that denying the existence of aliens is the greatest arrogance!"
Tian Xiwei's fork froze in mid-air...
As Zhou Ye spoke, she dipped her fork in cocoa powder and drew a crooked galaxy diagram on her napkin.
"Uncle, look!" She suddenly pushed the napkin over, pointing to a chocolate-colored spot with her fingertip. "If Siton comes from here, the friction generated when she passed through the atmosphere would explain her fear of fire!"
"Uncle, you must have thought of that too, right? Uncle is so great!"
"uncle……!"
"uncle……!!"
"uncle……!!!"
Jiang Ye was somewhat dazed by the repeated calls of "Uncle." He hadn't expected that his casual conversation about aliens would elicit such enthusiasm from this girl who was usually quite shy.
More importantly, he was being stared at by such a beautiful young girl, her eyes full of admiration and approval.
He called me "Uncle" repeatedly, and each word of affirmation and praise was delivered.
Jiang Ye's lips curled up in a smile that he couldn't suppress.
After all, people need emotional support...
Seeing Jiang Ye and Zhou Ye chatting so enthusiastically, Tian Xi felt a surge of displeasure.
What do you mean?
Is this airport trying to steal my man?
Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly raised her voice, saying to Lin Xiaoman, "Xiaoman! I saw a really funny joke yesterday, let me tell you!"
Before anyone could react, she began to speak: "One day, Xiaoming asked Xiaohong, 'Do you know why penguins have white bellies?'" She paused deliberately, looked around, and seeing no one responding, she revealed the answer herself: "Because if their bellies were black, they would be mistaken for coal and picked up when they were lying down! Hahaha!"
"Isn't that funny?"
There was silence.
Lin Xiaoman chuckled dryly, "Ha, ha...it's quite funny."
To ease the awkwardness, Lin Xiaoman immediately changed the subject: "Actually, my brother is even better at telling jokes! He can tell a whole day and night without repeating himself!"
Jiang Ye was quite pleased to hear this, as it was indeed his area of expertise.
Zhou Qisi chimed in at the opportune moment: "Really? President Jiang can tell jokes?"
Lin Xiaoman: "Of course! Brother, why don't you tell one?"
Jiang Ye feigned modesty: "Well, it's really nothing..."
Zhou Ye looked at him with bright eyes: "Uncle, tell me one!"
Jiang Ye felt pleased to be called upon and cleared his throat: "Alright, I'll just give you one."
"Guess why the tomato needs to cross the road?"
Tian Xiwei immediately answered, "Because there are cucumbers on the other side?"
Lin Xiaoman nodded in agreement: "Yes! They are good friends!"
Zhou Qisi analyzed carefully: "Perhaps it's looking for more suitable soil to grow in?"
Zhou Ye softly replied, "Because it wants to become ketchup, right? If it gets run over while crossing the street, won't it turn into ketchup?"
Jiang Ye: "!!!"
He got interested and told another story.
"The cannibals captured a laborer, but then released him. Do you know why?"
Zhou Ye: "He said that being a working person is too hard!"
There's a guy who farts really loudly. Do you know why?
Zhou Ye: "Because he was wearing bell-bottoms!"
"Lili always sings off-key, but whenever she goes on a trip, her singing becomes much better. Why is that?"
Zhou Ye: "Because she became tourist Lili!"
"Brother, can I share one too?"
Jiang Ye nodded happily.
One day, Sun Wukong lost his golden cudgel, so he summoned the local earth god and said, "Lord earth god, do you see where my golden cudgel is?"
"Then the Earth God said, 'Hmm... what's great about him is that his hairstyle matches yours perfectly!'"
After Zhou Ye finished speaking, her eyes sparkled as she looked at everyone, her fingers nervously gripping the hem of her clothes, clearly hoping for a laugh.
The air was silent for three seconds.
Tian Xi frowned slightly, chewing the food in her mouth: "What does this mean? He lost his golden cudgel, and the Earth God is praising his hairstyle? What's so funny about that?"
Lin Xiaoman nodded in agreement.
Zhou Qisi's face instantly turned bright red, wishing she could disappear into the ground. She quietly tugged at Zhou Ye's sleeve and whispered, "Little sister, you're so cold, nobody can understand..."
Just then, Jiang Ye suddenly burst out laughing.
At first, it was a low chuckle, then it grew louder and louder, until finally he lay face down on the table, one hand clutching his stomach and the other supporting himself on the edge of the table, his shoulders shaking with laughter, even the teacups on the table were shaking.
"Hahaha...I can't take it anymore..."
Everyone: "..."
Jiang Ye finally managed to stop laughing, wiping the corner of his eye: "Okay, I'll keep this joke. I'll tell it to Du...the people at the company later."
Jiang Ye enthusiastically put a chicken leg on Zhou Ye's plate. Finally, he had met someone who could fight alongside him in the universe of lame jokes.
He was very happy and even took the initiative to add Zhou Ye on WeChat.
Tian Xiwei, who was standing to the side, stared wide-eyed...
When the dinner party ended, Zhou Qisi pulled Zhou Ye to get up and say goodbye.
"Mr. Jiang, we'll be leaving now. Thank you for your hospitality."
Zhou Ye stood up as well, and before leaving, she glanced at Jiang Ye with a look that was both curious and knowing, as if she had found a kindred spirit.
She smiled and said softly, "Goodbye, Uncle Jiang. If you have any new jokes next time... you can send them to me on WeChat."
Jiang Ye smiled and waved his hand: "Definitely."
After the two left, Tian Xiwei immediately tugged at Lin Xiaoman's arm and winked, "Come on, let's go to the bathroom."
Lin Xiaoman followed her into the bathroom.
"What are you doing?"
"Run!" Tian Xiwei whispered, "This meal looks ridiculously expensive, I don't have enough money for my New Year's gifts!"
"Besides, I don't know those two women. Your brother must have paid. I'll treat him to spicy hot pot another day!"
The two hit it off immediately. Just as they pushed open the door to slip away, they saw the waiter standing at the door with a smile on his face, holding the bill in his hand.
"Ladies, would you mind settling the bill?"
Tian Xiwei's heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to remain calm: "Look for that man from earlier, he's the boss."
"That gentleman has already left." The waiter smiled even more warmly. "He said the meal would be split equally, and he has already paid seven thousand. The remaining one thousand nine hundred and thirty-six yuan is for the two of you."
"What?!" Tian Xiwei and Lin Xiaoman exclaimed in unison, their eyes wide with surprise.
"He said he's not used to being treated, especially by friends, so he feels more comfortable splitting the bill." The waiter handed over the bill. "Would you like to scan the code or pay in cash?"
Tian Xiwei: "...You Jiang, you just wait!!!"
