Chapter 30 Hunter
The crystal chandelier cast mottled light and shadows on the back of the red velvet chair. Meng Ziyi's fingers painted with nude nail polish tapped lightly on the wall of the cup. Looking at Li Yitong's watery eyes opposite her, she suddenly leaned forward.

"Has Tongtong met our Chef Jiang before? You seem to know who he's talking about."

Her arm accidentally pressed against the glass turntable, causing it to make a slight buzzing sound.

Li Yitong curled her lips and tucked her hanging hair behind her ears, frowning with a surprised expression, as if she didn't understand what she said.

"Meng Meng, are you kidding me? If I had a friend like that, I would have boasted to you eight hundred times!"

"Dr. Jiang is highly educated, handsome, and a great cook. He's the pinnacle of quality men. He's like the male lead in an idol drama, reflected in reality~"

"Honestly, Mengmeng, when you first told me that Jiang Qing existed on the show, I dismissed it, thinking you were exaggerating. Now it seems you're being low-key!"

"No wonder you keep mentioning Dr. Jiang when chatting with me recently. He's really quite good~"

She smiled and took a sip of red wine, her delicate red lips leaving ambiguous lip prints on the wall of the glass.

Her pointed words made Meng Ziyi look a little unnatural and lower his head, and a hint of unpleasantness flashed in Zhang Han's eyes.

"But you just..."

Zhou Ye didn't notice the change in their expressions, biting his chopsticks and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"I just choked."

Li Yitong tapped the plate with a silver spoon, and the crisp sound interrupted her questioning.

"Dr. Jiang's friend who's good at English, could you please ask him for some good study methods?"

"My English isn't very good, and I don't have the time to study systematically. It would be great if there were some simple and easy-to-use method."

"Dr. Jiang, could you help me ask your friend about this?"

She deliberately threw the topic back to Jiang Qing, with a cunning light in her crescent eyes.

At this time, Zhang Han suddenly picked up the decanter and walked to Jiang Qing.

"Yitong, you might as well just ask Jiang Qing to summarize the methods for you. He's so talented and has a PhD at such a young age. His English must be pretty good, and he must have his own learning methods."

"Jiang Qing, let me pour you some more, the cup is almost empty."

As he spoke, he had already tilted the decanter towards the mouth of Jiang Qing's cup, and the scarlet liquid kept swaying in the decanter.

"I don't need that. I can only drink a limited amount. If I drink more, I'll make a fool of myself."

"Teacher Zhang Han, don't you want to watch my live broadcast?"

Jiang Qing raised his hand to cover the rim of the cup and spoke to him with a smile.

He tapped the rim of the cup with the knuckle of his bent index finger, and the goblet made a clear sound like the sound of a chime.

A smile blossomed very slowly between his eyebrows. The smile lines at the end of his eyes suddenly narrowed into a sharp angle as they extended to his temples. The halo floating in his pupils solidified into a flame under the ice at a certain moment.

Zhang Han's knuckles holding the decanter suddenly felt numb, and he seemed to feel a slight chill in a trance.

"Teacher Zhang Han, wouldn't you..."

Jiang Qing suddenly leaned forward three inches and stared into his eyes with a puzzled expression.

"Because you're jealous because Sister Meng praised me?"

"Probably not?"

He chuckled at the end of his voice, and it seemed to make the crystal chandelier resonate with it.

In the eyes of others, Jiang Qing seemed to be just joking with Zhang Han, avoiding urging him to drink by teasing him. Only Zhang Han himself knew best how he felt at the moment.

He suddenly had the illusion that he was being looked down upon by some gigantic monster!
Their eyes met, and the veins on the back of Zhang Han's hand jumped. He quickly took back the decanter, and the red wine rippled in panic in the bottle.

"Since Dr. Jiang has said so, I can't make things difficult for our chef, otherwise we won't have anything to eat tomorrow."

"He who knows the current situation is a hero, don't you agree?"

Zhang Han avoided Jiang Qing's gaze, straightened up, and looked around at Meng Ziyi and the others with a nonchalant smile. A closer look revealed cold sweat on his forehead.

"Teacher Zhang Han's words, 'A man who knows the times is a hero,' are only at the level of a major."

Jiang Qing tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertips and blurted out a sentence out of the blue.

"Hahaha!"

"I'm dying of laughter. It turns out Jiang Qing, you also understand this joke."

“Geese, geese, geese… Jiang… Jiang Qing… geese, geese, geese…”

A girl who loved to act coquettishly made a series of goose-like noises, which made Jiang Qing look sideways.

The last time she sang, I didn’t see this girl have such good lung capacity.

Amidst the laughter of the whole table, Li Yitong glanced at Jiang Qing's sharp profile, recalling the deep pupils that flashed across his face when he and Zhang Han just looked at each other, and the downward curve of his eyes deepened a little.

She was sure she hadn't seen it.

Jiang Qing, Jiang Qing, I didn’t know your name yesterday. I must check you carefully when I go back today.

She held her chin with her fingers bent in the same elegant position as usual, but the pinky ring made a low-frequency vibration when it rubbed the handle of the cup, just like the cheetah's ear tips twitching when it hears the beating of the antelope's carotid artery.

Li Yitong suddenly felt that he had the potential to be a hunter.

-

The dinner lasted until nearly ten o'clock, and when it ended, a light drizzle suddenly began to fall outside.

They took the elevator to the underground parking lot. While waiting for Zhang Han to pick up the car, Li Yitong walked gently to Jiang Qing's side, then opened her mobile phone, clicked on the QR code of the social account and handed it to him.

"Dr. Jiang, could you please add my contact information?"

"When you have time, could you please ask your friend about how to learn English well?"

Her voice was wrapped in the dampness of the underground garage and sounded soft and sticky.

"Thank you so much~"

Jiang Qing met her smiling eyes and nodded gently, then took out his cell phone and opened it to scan her screen.

Since the other party didn't mention what happened last night, it's not too much to ask for contact information.

And he knew that the other party was just curious about his identity.

"Dr. Jiang's profile picture is indeed as special as Meng Meng said."

At this time, Li Yitong saw the avatar on the screen and giggled, covering her mouth.

Meng Ziyi's eyes moved back and forth between the two of them, especially when she saw the cute expression on Li Yitong's face, a hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Qing shrugged, already used to being teased about this.

He looked at Zhou Ye who was frequently glancing at him from the side, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of his lips.

Looking at this scene, Li Yitong's crescent eyes flashed, as if she was thinking about something.

-

When the car drove onto the highway, Jiang Qing's phone vibrated.

New message pop-up on lock screen:
Li Yitong: "Will the moon phase display window of the 5270G fluoresce in the dark?"

He turned his head to look at the flowing neon lights outside the window, his thumb gently stroking the sapphire dial.

This beautiful woman with smiling eyes is not only beautiful, but also has a good sense of propriety.

Smart but not aggressive, which is quite interesting.
