“How about we go find that couple and cause a bit of trouble?” Song Jia proposed.

“No,” Qin Fen shook his head, “Even though they did the infuriating thing of betting on my actions, they did save my life in the past. If they hadn’t given me that money back then, I might be dead from starvation by now. Let’s just say we’re even.”

Song Jia patted Qin Fen on the shoulder, “Excellent, I’m very pleased.”

The waitress arrived with their steaks at this time, leading Qin Fen to discover a very important problem.

He didn’t know how to eat Western food! If he was given a combat knife, then Qin Fen was confident that he could create a powerful gale with his skills in wielding it. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to sever the heads of a few tigers. However, when it came to using a small knife to deal with the steak before his eyes? Now that was a big problem!

A wisp of a sly and crafty light streaked through Song Jia’s eyes. With a smile, she raised her hand to speak to the waitress who was about to leave, “Apologies, can you give us two pairs of chopsticks?”

“Chopsticks?” The waitress looked at Song Jia with a bit of astonishment. She wore brand-name casual clothes, and her manners revealed a high status that was out of the norm.

Such a temperament and manner of dressing meant that she should be able to tell the age of a red wine even if a bottle without a label was given to her. How could she not know how to use a knife and fork?

“What’s the matter? Is there a problem?” Song Jia gave a slight tilt of her head as she asked.

“Huh?” The waitress recovered from her shock and began shaking her head over and over, “Nothing! Nothing at all!”

Asking for chopsticks in a western restaurant wasn’t something that happened everyday, but it did happen often. The waitress was already used to it.

“Thanks.”

“This is the third time you’ve said thank-you to me.” Song Jia pouted with her tiny mouth again, “I’m very displeased with all of the insincere thank-yous.”

Qin Fen gave a helpless nod, as he suddenly realized that Lady Song really liked to use a few certain words.

“I’m very pleased.” “I’m very displeased.” Could this be her catchphrase? Qin Fen was quite baffled. What an odd catchphrase to have.

Using the chopsticks the waitress gave them, Song Jia ate her steak in a bit unladylike fashion. Qin Fen suddenly got a certain feeling from this. A feeling that this girl wasn’t that far away from him.

“What’s up? This little miss sure looks beautiful when she’s eating, right? You’re dazed just by watching,” Song Jia didn’t cover it at all.

“Very beautiful…. I was just lost in thought, though. Not dazed,” Qin Fen felt a little diffident when saying these words. Song Jia had become very intimate within the recent period of time.

“Lies!” Song Jia smiled like a proud fairy, “I’m very displeased with your answer. As punishment, say what you were thinking when you decided to join the military. Don’t say stuff that everyone already knows.”

Qin Fen realized that this goddess’s thoughts were quite meticulous. Of course, her mind also possessed the gossip mentality that every girl had.

After his thoughts settled for a moment, Qin Fen said, “Where do you want me to start?”

“From the beginning. We have a lot of time left in the day,” Song Jia wanted to gain a greater understanding of Qin Fen’s affairs.

“I have a big brother.”

“Oh?” Even though she knew of Qin Fen’s family relationships early on, Song Jia still put on an act. She expressed astonishment as she said, “Then how come I’ve never met him before?”

“He went missing….” Qin Fen had a bit of a lonely look.

“Really….” Song Jia followed him with a sigh.

“My brother is very strong. I’m sure that he wasn’t in danger when he disappeared.” Qin Fen spoke with confidence, “So I am waiting for a chance to find my brother.”

“Very strong?” This time Song Jia was surprised for real. She had some powerful investigations done on Qin Fen’s brother, but the result was a complete blank when it came to information pertaining to him. Nothing turned up at all when it came to what in he was doing and his current whereabouts.

“He’s very strong in my memories.” Qin Fen laughed, “It was just that my brother suddenly said he had to leave one day. He also said I should stand on my own two feet and live like a man. He disappeared the next day.”

“Really….”

Qin Fen’s memories from a long distant past seemed to instantly come back to him when he talked about his brother. Qin Fen, who normally didn’t talk much, couldn’t stop talking after opening his mouth.

Song Jia watched Qin Fen silently as he talked. His features were sharp and clear, and his eyes were shining with passion. She also observed his body and its near-perfect proportions. Aside from the grandmaster aura that exuded from his body, there was also the masculine air of a man. He was much better looking than the typical handsome-yet-smooth man by God knows how many fold.

He really was someone who became tastier the more one looked at him. Song Jia unconsciously became attracted to Qin Fen. Her initial curiosity had now turned into an interest in Qin Fen himself.

Their chat went on for several hours, and Qin Fen once again proved that he had an appetite of a king. He also proved that the military, with its free meals, was certainly a suitable place for him.

Sixteen servings of black pepper steak. Two servings of grilled fish. Nine cups of milk tea. Such a radiant battle record shocked the staff silly. It wasn’t that they’ve never seen a customer who could eat, but the way Qin Fen could eat was something they really hadn’t seen before.

“Full now?” Song Jia smiled very sweetly.

Qin Fen had a faint feeling that something was a bit off, but he still nodded and said, “Yep, I’m full.”

“Then come with me to go shopping!” Song Jia carried Qin Fen’s arm, not caring at all whether or not Qin Fen resisted.

“Excuse me, you haven’t paid the bill yet,” The staff kindly reminded them.

“Oh! Yeah!” Song Jia began to rummage though her purse, but Qin Fen had already handed over the money to the waitress.

“The heck are you doing?” Song Jia watched Qin Fen as he paid, “We said that I’d be the one treating you.”

“How can a man let a woman pay when eating out together?” Qin Fen smiled, “I may not be rich, but I don’t dawdle over paying a bill.”

Song Jia carefully studied Qin Fen once more before frowning in the end. She looked cute as she pondered, “Will you pay for every girl you eat out with? Or just me?”

Qin Fen swallowed after glancing at the chopsticks on the table. For an expert, that little thing could also be a tool for creating bloodshed. Song Jia’s gaze scanned the chopsticks on the table. The wrong answer would be a very dangerous matter.

“Just you,” Qin Fen answered, suddenly discovering that this wasn’t a lie. This was because he practically never ate with a girl before. Back then, Tian Tian had firmly refused him to pay. The only girl he really did pay a meal for was Song Jia.

“Excellent,” Song Jia nodded happily. “I’m very pleased.”

“‘Very pleased’ and ‘Very displeased’,” Qin Fen muttered to himself. These really were her catchphrases.
