Chapter 49: Gentleman's Etiquette, Treating Ladies
Chapter 49: Gentleman's Etiquette, Treating Ladies
"Ok?"
Li Xiaoen was stunned when he heard this, and carefully studied Victoria's face, "You're treating me to dinner?"
According to the other party's education and etiquette, which is similar to that of the old European and American aristocrats, it seems that it is rare for a lady to invite a man to dinner.
"Yeah, that's right."
Victoria nodded, her palms already sweating unconsciously, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing."
Li Xiaoen smiled and shrugged, "Then I'll be honored to refuse."
Because Victoria had classes in the afternoon, Li Xiaoen took the initiative to say goodbye and followed the crowd towards the school cafeteria.
After a simple lunch, Li Xiaoen went back to the dormitory to take a nap as usual, and then went to the library to study.
With the three years of learning knowledge loaded into Universal Card, seeing the textbooks and exercises of this major again, and even the expanded thinking directions proposed by the teacher, suddenly became familiar to him.
New concepts became easy to understand, and the ideas for in-depth problem solving became coherent, as if he had already understood everything before and was just revisiting his memory.
It seems that his choice was not wrong.
After looking at the study materials sent by the calculus teacher, Li Xiaoen felt relieved. He glanced at it from top to bottom and closed it. He stood up and went deep into the library to look for textbooks for more advanced knowledge.
The learning card can help him quickly master the results of several years of learning, but he will not sit and wait for the system rewards to be issued before making progress.
After all, he was admitted to this university based on his own ability.
At about 3:30 in the afternoon, Li Xiaoen left the library and went to the gym.
As his physical energy was about to be extracted, he vaguely felt that his physical strength was about to rise to a higher level.
……
His abdominal muscles were groaning with burning pain, and his hair was soaked with sweat. Just as Li Xiaoen was about to end his training for the day, the sound of angry gritting of teeth rose up from all over the gym.
Before he could stand up to find out what was going on, two flawless faces appeared in his sight while Li Xiaoen was lying on the machine.
"Hello, Mr. Sean."
Victoria, holding a bag in both hands, smiled and greeted everyone from top to bottom.
"Is it almost time?"
Li Xiaoen bent down and sat up, pulling his feet out of the buckles. He took a deep breath to soothe the aches in his body.
"Hey, everyone else is putting in all their effort when they see us coming, why did you stop?"
Seeing Li Xiaoen sitting up straight, Victoria couldn't help but complain.
"They are them, and I am me, okay?"
Li Xiaoen rolled his eyes. Isn't it said that people in America value the existence of individuals and personalities more? Why is it different for him?
Sure enough, the data and information found in the country are not necessarily accurate.
"Besides, it's your treat tonight, and I'm the guest."
Li Xiaoen answered slowly, his eyes finally noticing Su Feier standing motionless beside him. "Is she going too?"
"Well, I'll let Sufei come and keep me company." Victoria nodded with a smile.
"Ok."
Li Xiaoen had no objection. Although he felt helpless, he had to follow the host's wishes. He was just a freeloader.
After a quick rinse, the three of them headed towards the parking lot at the door.
It was already half past four, the sun was low in the sky, and the sunlight stretched the shadows of several people behind them very long.
"Sufeil, are you going to be my car too?" Li Xiaoen couldn't help but ask as he gradually approached the shabby Toyota Camry he borrowed from his uncle.
I can still vividly remember when Sufei complained that the car he drove was a piece of junk.
Victoria raised her hands to cover her eyes to block the oncoming sunlight, and also turned her head to look at Sufeil.
"If you don't want to drive today, just take your car."
Sufeier pondered for a moment before answering.
It's fine, Victoria is fine, but this arrogant young lady also wants to ride in his junky car?
Li Xiaoen frowned, not knowing what evil intentions this woman was up to.
Suddenly, he thought of something and smiled. "Sufeier, can you take my car? Will it offset a promise?"
"Don't think about it!"
Su Feier turned around and looked at Li Xiaoen's expectant expression and sneered, "Do you really think it's that easy to deal with me?"
"Sorry, I won't be the driver anymore."
I didn't have much hope in the first place, but Li Xiaoen didn't care. "So it's better for you to drive yourself."
Sufei glanced at Li Xiaoen sideways, turned around, and without saying anything else, just walked towards the other direction of the parking lot.
"Eh……"
Seeing the two of them part ways after a disagreement, Victoria hurriedly called out, but unfortunately she failed to stop Sufei from walking away. She could not help but turn around and glare at Li Xiaoen.
"Sean, just be a gentleman and give Sufei a ride. It won't hurt anything."
"Gentlemanly etiquette, treat the lady as you would treat her, Miss Victoria."
Li Xiaoen murmured, "Maintaining gentlemanly etiquette in the face of rude people only makes me uncomfortable."
"you……"
Victoria frowned and stamped her feet as she saw that Li Xiaoen had given up hope.
She clearly felt that Sufeil did not have much ill will towards Li Xiaoen. Instead, Li Xiaoen was more disgusted with her and even seemed ruthless in some aspects.
To Li Xiaoen's surprise, Victoria did not get into Sufei's convertible sports car, but sat in his passenger seat instead.
Although, no one said a word along the way.
The restaurant they dined at was a traditional French Western restaurant called The Peacock Inn. After parking the car, Li Xiaoen got out immediately and opened the passenger door for Victoria.
"Thank you."
Victoria stood up and came out, whispering something.
"You're welcome."
Li Xiaoen replied, "As long as you don't mind that the car is old and shabby."
Although etiquette does not distinguish between external situations, Queen Mary still maintained her final courtesy and pride and apologized after stepping on the executioner's foot when entering the execution ground. However, the scene of him performing etiquette like this and letting the beautiful girl get out of such a broken car was not a good look.
Do you want to buy a new car when you have time?
Li Xiaoen thought to himself that he had borrowed his uncle's car for quite some time, so much so that he still had to ride in his colleague's car to and from get off work. It was time to return it.
As for helping his uncle, he would need to have more savings and a suitable reason.
After meeting up with Sufeil, her cold expression softened a little when Victoria crossed her arms and spoke sweetly. She found the right direction, raised her leg and led Victoria to the restaurant door. She didn't even look at Li Xiaoen during the whole process.
Is this being treated as air?
With this thought in mind, Li Xiaoen raised his legs and followed the pace of the two girls.
As they walked into the restaurant, Li Xiaoen saw the two girls stop and couldn't help but stop as well. He followed their gaze and looked forward. Two young white boys walked over.
Matthew? The one on the school basketball team?
