Chapter 82: Chapter 82 An Yiqing Plays Dirty

"What would you like to eat?" Bai Yiming, ever the gentleman, passed the menu to An Yiqing.

An Yiqing flipped through it briefly before handing it back, "You choose, I don’t eat Western food often, so I’m not familiar with it."

The server nearby gave An Yiqing an odd look upon hearing this. The women who dined here always put on airs, eager to show off their noble heritage. It was rare to see a girl like this one who wasn’t pretentious or affected.

"Then let’s stick to the usual, two of each," Bai Yiming decided without further ado.

"Young Master Bai, the total comes to five hundred and twenty-three thousand nine hundred and nineteen yuan." Shortly after, the server approached with the bill on a tray.

Just as Bai Yiming was about to take out his membership card from his wallet, a fair little hand stopped him.

"I’ll cover this meal," An Yiqing said while handing her bank card to the server.

"Young Master Bai, this...?" The server looked at Bai Yiming, somewhat awkwardly.

"Little girl, if you pay for me today, I, Young Master Bai, won’t be able to lift my head in this place ever again!" Bai Yiming quirked his handsome brows and flashed a captivating smile, "There’ll be plenty of opportunities to invite me to dinner, but I’ll take care of this one."

"Um, I wanted to treat you to thank you for giving me a friendly price on that plot of land. If I don’t do it today, I’ll pay you the original price for the land instead."

A hint of helplessness flickered in Bai Yiming’s dark eyes. This little girl was really something—why did she have to be so exacting?

"Really, there’s no dealing with you," Bai Yiming sighed and shook his head with a wry smile, then gestured to the server with a tilt of his chin, "Listen to her."

The server, who had been quietly observing, nodded politely but inwardly scoffed, thinking that the girl might be just another goldfinch like the others. However, she turned out to be someone who could make Young Master Bai yield. A girl like her truly matched the lofty Young Master Bai—those previous women were nothing but embroidered pillows!

The food arrived quickly. An Yiqing cut a small piece of steak to taste—pretty good, definitely top-notch. But why did she feel it wasn’t as delicious as the one Gu Yelin made?

"Young Master Bai, what a coincidence, you haven’t come to see me for so long." While An Yiqing and Bai Yiming were enjoying the fine cuisine, a nauseatingly sycophantic female voice shattered the tranquility at the table.

As An Yiqing glanced up, she saw a woman with meticulously applied makeup, large eyes, a high-bridged nose, shoulder-length hair, and a voluptuous figure—yes, definitely Bai Yiming’s type.

An Yiqing gave Bai Yiming a teasing look, saying nothing as she lowered her gaze to continue eating.

"Young Master Bai, I’m Sally," the curvaceous woman bent forward, deliberately revealing her heaving bust, "It’s been three months since we’ve been apart, I’ve missed you to death!~"

"Sally? Don’t know her!" Bai Yiming was really annoyed. First there was Zhang Lin, and now a Sally. His image in the little girl’s eyes was already not so hot, and now it had gotten even worse.

"You’re too mean, Young Master Bai! Sally has been missing you horribly! Oh? Who’s this little sister here?" Sally acted surprised only now noticing An Yiqing, deliberately emphasizing the words "little sister."

"A friend," An Yiqing replied quietly, without lifting her eyes.

"Oh!~ A friend?" Sally’s eyes held a hint of mockery as she sat down, "Little sister, you don’t mind me joining Young Master Bai for dinner here, do you?"

"Sally—" Bai Yiming frowned, about to express his dissatisfaction.

"Of course not, please help yourself," An Yiqing said without looking up, eating with relish.

Sally’s lips curved into a hidden sneer. This girl was plainly dressed, clearly not used to luxury. Heh! Look at her behaving as if she’d never eaten such high-end Western food!

"Little girl, are you sure you want her sitting here?" Bai Yiming was a bit frustrated, wondering why the girl didn’t react at all.

"Young Master Bai, this is between you and your ex-girlfriend. It has nothing to do with me," An Yiqing said evenly, her indifference causing Bai Yiming’s heart to clench. He gave up on the idea of sending Sally away.

Sally snickered internally upon sensing the strange atmosphere between Bai Yiming and An Yiqing. Clearly, this little girl wasn’t willing to be taken advantage of. How could Young Master Bai possibly like such a woman?

"Little sister, you’ve never been here before, have you?" Sally straightened up and assumed a haughty air, "Judging by your dress, you certainly can’t afford the prices here, but their Western food is not bad—pretty expensive though. Don’t worry, Young Master Bai is never stingy with women." With that, Sally managed to mock An Yiqing’s apparent lack of sophistication while elevating Bai Yiming’s status.

"..." An Yiqing, her cheeks glowing, busied herself with the steak, finding the woman rather irritating.

Bai Yiming looked at An Yiqing’s unconcerned face and was inwardly despondent. He tossed his head back and drained the wine in his glass as if out of spite.

"Young Master Bai~ be careful not to choke!" Sally, noticing Bai Yiming’s discontent, hurried to display her nurturing and wise nature, "The little sister is too young, it’s understandable she doesn’t know any better."

"..." An Yiqing stopped cutting her steak and glanced at Sally before lowering her head to finish off the last piece of meat.

She elegantly wiped the corner of her mouth and looked up with an innocent smile, "This older sister hasn’t ordered yet, right?"

"What, what’s the matter?" Sally was taken aback by An Yiqing’s question, stumbling over her words.

"I’ll go order for you then," An Yiqing said, standing up and seemingly keen to assist.

Bai Yiming watched An Yiqing, somewhat puzzled. What was this girl up to now?

Watching An Yiqing’s obliging departure, Sally disdainfully curled her lip. What a small-town attitude—nobody rushes to order in a place like this!

After a long while, An Yiqing still hadn’t returned, and Bai Yiming began to suspect something was off. Just then, a server with a tray started to approach their table.

"Miss Sally, here is the three meals you ordered, totaling seven hundred and twenty thousand yuan," the server said politely, handing Sally the bill on the tray.
