27 Multifunctional Dream Lover

Walking through Tokyo was located in the center of the city. An Qi used to choose this place ofen when she was dating Yu Hao.

When she stepped into it again, the decor was still the same, but the people were different. She did not know if Dong Manman had asked her here on purpose.

An Qi followed the the waiter upstairs. The light in the Japanese restaurant was not bright, but as soon as An Qi got to the second floor, she could see that Dong Manman was not alone, but had a guest beside her.

An Qi walked over to the pair slowly. As Dong Manman heard footsteps behind her, she looked back reluctantly, and right after that, the entire Japanese restaurant shook because of her loud voice…

"Qiqi, you're here!" she practically screamed as she stood up and give her a big bear hug.

"Dong Manman, who is this?" An Qi whispered in Dong Manman's ear.

Almost at the same time, Dong Manman's hands suddenly clamped onto An Qi's as she whispered, "Don't look at him, but listen... He's my dream lover! You must make me look good, understand?"

As An Qi's face was being held so tightly, she could only give her a mechanical nod. Only then did Dong Manman release her hands. She then tidied her jacket and turned around to face her dream lover.

"This is my best friend, An Qi," she introduced.

After Dong Manman said this, she moved to the side and pointed her finger at An Qi. It was not until that moment that An Qi could really see what her dream lover looked like.

Compared with the portrait on Instagram, the dream lover's appearance looked just like a grown-up version of a really cute young guy to An Qi. For a while, An Qi was stunned silent.

The dream lover stood up and reached out his hand. "Hello, I'm Leng Jin, an incoming partner at Dong Manman's studio."

Dong Manman pinched An Qi secretly, and only then did An Qi return to her senses. She then hurriedly reached her hand over and greet him.

Dong Manman rolled her eyes discreetly. She'd originally thought that An Qi would handle herself much more smoothly, but when An Qi saw a handsome man, she was even more struck by his handsomeness than Dong Manman!

Leng Jin did not mind An Qi's awkwardness, but brushed his lips across An Qi's fingertips like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water as he returned her greeting.

His action left a good impression on An Qi, causing her thoughts to wander. As her eyebrows furrowed, his gaze became piercing.

Whoosh

In front of the bar, the hibachi chef was frying something. As the firelight hit the faces of two standing diners, they looked very compatible.

"Don't keep standing there. Come and sit down," Dong Manman said, trying to break the ice.

"Okay." An Qi smiled and chose to sit next to Dong Manman.

"Still the same old style?" Dong Manman didn't even show An Qi the menu before she asked her.

An Qi nodded and said nothing. The so-called "old style" was referring to foie gras, lobster, and other dishes. These had been Yu Hao's favorite dishes.

When they came here previously, it was usually Yu Hao who was in charge of ordering. As they had occasionally come here with Dong Manman and Gu Xiaonan, Dong Manman had clearly remembered.

All this time, she had thought that they were An Qi's favorite dishes! It just proved how, when An Qi had been with Yu Hao, her desires and wants were so easily neglected. At that time, she was so silly and thought that Yu Hao was like a god!

Leng Jin then reached out and asked, "Dong Manman, can you show me the menu?"

"Oh, yes, no problem." Dong Manman handed the menu to Leng Jin, then waved for the waiter to come over. "A steak, half an Australian lobster, and a potato pancake."

An Qi could not help but frown as she listened to the names of her favorite dishes being ordered. Leng Jin glanced at the menu briefly before placing his own order, "Autumn pear and snow clam soup, a garden salad, the grilled eel, and a serving of flaming ice cream."

From the very first time An Qi heard the Leng Jin's voice on the iPad, her heart was warmed by it. It was even more lovely when she now heard it in person.

God, if this man doesn't work as a designer, he should definitely work as a therapeutic voice actor! An Qi thought. She would definitely be his first fan!

In fact, not only An Qi, but several of the waiters, as well as a few female guests, were also attracted to Leng Jin's voice. All of the male diners around them looked angry and jealous as a result.

"Are the dishes not to your liking?" Dong Manman asked uneasily.

After all, this meal was hosted by her. If she didn't do a good job of entertaining her dream lover, it might affect her being able to open a studio in Paris!

Leng Jin smiled at Dong Manman. "No, don't think much about it. These are all for An Qi."

Dong Manman raised her eyebrows in surprise. "For An Qi? But, I already ordered..."

As she spoke, she turned her head back to look in An Qi's direction. An Qi's eyes were wide, and she had on a surprised look on her face.

"Oh, I simply observed that An Qi walked over with slight panting breaths. Maybe she had caught a cold or something in the afternoon, so I figured that a greasy steak was not the best choice for her. So, I made a decision for her." Leng Jin's voice was still as gentle and warm as an afternoon breeze.

"Of course, it it's not to Miss An Qi's liking, she doesn't have to force herself to have any of it." After saying that, Leng Jin raised his wine glass and nodded in the direction of Dong Manman and An Qi, toasting them.

This was a genius move, as it did not embarrass Dong Manman, nor did it cause An Qi to be forced to eat the food that she did not like. In Leng Jin's capable hands, everything had been handled just right!

An Qi returned a smile to Leng Jin to show her gratitude, but found that Leng Jin was already completely focused on the food on his plate. It was like nothing had happened.

Suddenly, Dong Manman screamed, "Ah!"

An Qi was so frightened that she almost spit out the water that was in her mouth. She then quickly rubbed her nearly broken earlobes as she asked, "Dong Manman... Are you okay?"

"Don't worry." Dong Manman shook her hand at An Qi, without turning her head, signaling for her to continue eating and not be a busybody.

An Qi sighed and continued to sip her water. Dong Manman could be seen holding back for a long time before eventually stretching out her right hand nervously, and blushing as she asked Leng Jin, "Leng, since you supposedly have knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine, could you check my pulse for me?"
