Leng Hanyan took a sip of Tsingtao beer, her delicate features wrinkling, clearly not used to it. "This beer is so bitter."
"You'll have to get used to it if you plan to live in China for a long time. You don't have to drink white wine, but you should at least drink beer. Otherwise, how will you make friends?" Lin Chen smiled.
"Live in China for a long time? Do you want me to stay in China?"
Leng Hanyan was taken aback, then looked at Lin Chen. "Several American hospitals have invited me to join them. I've been considering whether to go, like the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, which has the most advanced Western medical theories and equipment in the world. I haven't decided whether to accept their invitation."
After saying this, Leng Hanyan looked at Lin Chen without speaking, not even knowing why she was telling him this. She seemed to be waiting for something.
"Um..."
Lin Chen didn't expect Leng Hanyan to ask him such a question.
Logically, such a life-changing decision should be discussed with her family, not with him, an outsider.
To be honest, it was impossible for Lin Chen to have no feelings for Leng Hanyan. Any man would have some thoughts about such a beautiful woman.
Lin Chen thought for a moment and said seriously, "This is something you need to think about yourself, as it concerns your entire life. But if I were you, I wouldn't accept the invitations from foreign hospitals. I believe that traditional Chinese medicine is just as good as Western medicine, so there's no need to go abroad to learn medical skills."
"Can I interpret that as you're trying to persuade me not to go abroad, and even willing to teach me traditional Chinese medicine?" Leng Hanyan smiled, her eyes twinkling with amusement.
"Think whatever you want. I can't influence your decision. Come, try this beef ball; it's quite tasty. How is it?" Lin Chen picked up a beef ball and stuffed it directly into Leng Hanyan's mouth.
"Ah!" Leng Hanyan's eyes widened in surprise, her sensuous, red lips holding the chopsticks, instinctively biting down on the meat ball that had been forced into her mouth.
This guy, he actually used chopsticks that had been in his mouth to pick up the meat ball and stuff it into her mouth. What does he mean by this! Leng Hanyan's face turned red as blood, staring at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen, however, didn't notice Leng Hanyan's thoughts, smiling as if waiting for her to comment on the taste.
It seems I misunderstood. This guy didn't mean to offend me, but he's too abrupt. Doesn't he know this is indirect kissing?
Leng Hanyan felt like crying. What kind of situation is this? She was clearly taken advantage of, yet the other party acted as if he didn't know anything.
"How is it? Is it good? Why is your face so red? Is it that spicy?"
Lin Chen picked up a beef ball and put it in his mouth, looking at Leng Hanyan in surprise. "Hey, your face is even redder. Could eating a beef ball make you this red? It's not that spicy!"
Leng Hanyan looked at the chopsticks still in Lin Chen's mouth, opening her mouth but unable to speak. Finally, she said with a red face, "I... I can't handle spicy food very well."
"Oh, then try this chives. Vegetables aren't spicy at all because the spiciness doesn't penetrate." Lin Chen picked up some chives and offered them to Leng Hanyan.
Leng Hanyan: "..."
"What's wrong? Don't you like chives?" Lin Chen said, somewhat disappointed. "They really are quite tasty. I always order them when I come here."
Of course you do, since you can't handle it!
Leng Hanyan thought to herself. In the end, she ate the chives, lowering her head with a red face. "I... I don't plan to accept the invitation from Massachusetts General Hospital."
Lin Chen smiled. "That's good. Staying in China isn't bad either."
The men nearby, seeing Lin Chen feed Leng Hanyan directly, had their eyes turn red with jealousy.
We're all men, why do you get to have a tall, leggy mixed-race beauty waiting for you to feed her, while I'm just a lonely dog!
The two of them enjoyed their meal, and although it was Leng Hanyan's first time eating spicy hot pot, she didn't end up with a mouth full of oil, still eating slowly and elegantly.
After a few beers, Leng Hanyan's face turned red, but since she still had to drive, she didn't drink too much. After they finished eating and were about to leave, a few security guards in uniform approached.
The people present were somewhat intimidated by the security guards, and the stall owners looked nervous.
"Is that your car?" One of the security guards, who seemed to be the leader, pointed at the Porsche.
"It's mine. Is there a problem?" Leng Hanyan turned her head, puzzled.
The security guards, seeing Leng Hanyan's appearance, all brightened. The leader said, "Don't you know that you can't park there? I'm the security captain of 'Fulin Industrial Zone.' You parked illegally, and we need to fine you!"
Leng Hanyan, somewhat angry, said, "This road is so wide. How is parking here to eat something illegal? It doesn't affect traffic at all. Even if it's not allowed, I can move the car. You're not traffic police, so what right do you have to fine me? What authority do you security guards have to fine people?"
"Haha, we don't have that authority? Your car is parked right at the entrance of our industrial zone, obstructing workers' entry and exit, reducing their efficiency, and causing losses to our industrial zone. So of course, we have the right to fine you!" The security captain sneered.
"You're making this up. My car is dozens of meters away from your industrial zone's entrance. How can it obstruct workers' entry and exit? You're just extorting me. Do you want me to call the police?" Leng Hanyan said angrily.
The security captain said disdainfully, "Miss, not everything can be solved by calling the police. You can call the police now, but before that, your car might have some problems, like broken windows or scratched paint. This is a Porsche, and your losses will be even greater!"
"You're not security guards, you're just social thugs!" Leng Hanyan said angrily.
The security captain sneered, his expression saying, "What are you going to do about it?"
Leng Hanyan was right. Although they were security guards, their actions were often no different from those of thugs, and because they had someone backing them, they were even more arrogant and reckless!
This kind of extortion was something they had done many times before.
In their view, anyone who could afford a Porsche and come to such a place was someone with some money but no background. After all, truly upper-class people wouldn't come to such a place.
"How much do you want to fine us?" Lin Chen looked at the security captain.
"Not much, just 50,000 yuan! Kid, be honest, or you'll be in trouble!" The security captain waved the baton in his hand at Lin Chen, his tone aggressive.
