Chapter 739: Light Under The Street Lamp
“It’s okay, just eat as much as you want.” Xu Ye flicked his hair and said, “How can we let the two ladies take the bill when we’re out to eat? I’ll treat you to today’s meal.”
“This is a meal to celebrate our mission, not to celebrate you,” Jiang Yu reminded him.
“So what?” Xu Ye shrugged and said, “I helped you guys too, didn’t I? So we should have won together. What’s wrong with me taking the bill for this meal?”
Jiang Yu looked at him and said after a long while, “Since movie king Xu has said so, then we might as well accept it.”
She took the menu and ordered a few dishes. The others were a little shocked.
Bessie asked in surprise, “Jiang Yu, you ordered so many dishes. Can you finish them all?”
Xu Ye held his forehead with a headache and said, “Jiang Yu, don’t order so crazily just because I’m the one paying.”
After Jiang Yu ordered the dishes, she handed the menu to the others and said, “Who said I ordered so crazily? I can eat all these.”
“Really?” Yan Fu didn’t believe it. “Jiang Yu, you look very thin and your appetite is very small! How can you eat all these things?”
Jiang Yu said, “You just have to trust me.”
Although Yan Fu was still a little doubtful, her attention was quickly attracted by the dazzling array of food on the menu.
Jiang Yu was a little bored, so she looked out of the window.
A small light spot attracted Jiang Yu’s attention. It was like a burning cigarette, flickering in and out of the darkness.
Logically speaking, such a scene could be seen everywhere on the streets, but Jiang Yu’s intuition told her that it was very dangerous.
It just so happened that the snack she had ordered earlier was served by the waiter. There was an exquisite and small steel fork on it.
Jiang Yu stopped the waiter and asked, “Hello, Can I take this small steel fork with me?”
The waiter was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, he said, “This steel fork needs to be bought with money. But if the customer really likes it and feels that this steel fork isn’t worth spending money to buy, you can also perform a show for the other customers. In that case, we can treat this steel fork as a gift for you.”
Jiang Yu looked around and asked, “What performance?”
The waiter pointed to the two microphones and a cello inside and said, “You can choose on your own and perform on the stage over there.”
“Okay, I got it.” Jiang Yu nodded.
After the waiter left, Bessie asked, “Jiang Yu, do you like this fork?”
Jiang Yu shook her head and said, “No, but this thing is useful to me now.”
“Huh?” Bessie didn’t understand what Jiang Yu meant.
Jiang Yu didn’t explain. Instead, she smiled and said, “I don’t think you’ve seen me play other instruments before, right? I happen to have this opportunity today. Let me show you.”
“I’ve seen it before,” Xu Ye said as he raised his hand.
However, no one else had seen it, especially Yan Fu.
Although she was a fan of Jiang Yu and had seen all of Jiang Yu’s movies and TV shows, she had never seen variety show before.
When Yan Fu heard that Jiang Yu wanted to play other musical instruments, her eyes instantly lit up. She said, “So Jiang Yu knows other musical instruments?”
Jiang Yu nodded and said, “A little.”
With that, she stood up and walked to the cello, playing an impromptu song.
It was Dvorak’s “Dvorak’s cello concerto in B minor”.
When the song ended, all the customers in the shop applauded and cheered. The waiter also took a new steel fork and handed it to Jiang Yu. He smiled and said, “The cello song you played is very nice.”
Jiang Yu took the steel fork and said politely, “Thank you for your praise.”
She returned to her seat and Bessie said in shock, “Jiang Yu, I didn’t expect you to play the cello! You’re too talented!”
Yan Fu also said, “That’s right. I only knew that my idol was talented, but I didn’t know that my idol was so talented!”
Ivan couldn’t help but praise, “Jiang Yu, you’re really amazing. You can’t say that you know how to play a musical instrument without more than ten years of study and practice. But you don’t look old. I didn’t expect that you not only know how to play the piano, but also the cello!”
