Chapter 1824 1824: Dining With Grandpa Long
"Sir." They saluted at Long Hui.
Long Hui replied with a salute as well.
"It has been an honour to meet Colonel Long Hui here." One of the soldiers said.
They seemed excited seeing Long Hui like the fans meeting their idols. Yu Qi shot the moving target several times. All hit the target. Everyone started to watch her. Some of them did not recognize Yu Qi and thought she was a part of the sniper team who came to practise here today. Yu Qi felt great after a dozen of shooting. She turned around and looked at the people who had been watching her. She was stunned.
"Everyone, practising your shooting." Grandpa Long"s voice could be heard.
Everyone snapped back to reality. They actually forgot that Grandpa Long was still here watching them practising. Yu Qi took down the shotgun. "Are you happy?" Long Hui asked.
"Hmm..." Yu Qi replied by nodding. Grandpa Long brought them to the room. They sat inside. "Yu Qi, I am sorry that I forgot that you are coming today." Grandpa Long said.
"It"s okay. I don"t know your schedule." Yu Qi shook her head. She took her bag and rummaged around. "Oh, before I forget..." She placed two gla.s.s jars in front of Grandpa Long. Of course, Grandpa Long knew what it was. He grinned as his eyes saw the gla.s.s jars. "Yu Qi, you seem to know that my medicine wine is almost finished." Grandpa Long smiled.
"Hmm... I make some calculations." Yu Qi said.
Grandpa Long looked at his grandson. "Look at your fiance. She put me in her mind. What about you... Humph!" He rolled his eyes to his grandson.
"Grandpa, you should remember something." Long Hui spoke.
"Remember what?" Grandpa Long asked. "That it is me who woo her. Otherwise, you would not be able to drink those wine." Long Hui said. "Humph!" Grandpa Long rolled his eyes again. He ignored his grandson and looked at his granddaughter-in-law with a smile. "When will you return home?" Yu Qi looked at Long Hui asking it with her eyes. "Tonight." Long Hui stated. "Why don"t you stay for a few days?" Grandpa Long asked.
"I am sorry, Grandpa. We are busy with work." Yu Qi apologized.
Grandpa Long waved his hands. "I know... I know." His grandson and his granddaughter-in-law were such busy people. He knew what the responsibility that they had. "But we can accompany you for dinner." Yu Qi smiled.
"Hmm... That is a nice idea." Grandpa Long nodded. He looked at the time. It was 5.30 p.m. "Even though it is slightly early, let"s go and have dinner together." Grandpa Long said.
Long Hui and Yu Qi did not have any rejections. Grandpa Long told Long Hui to drive to a fancy restaurant. "Is it okay for us to dine here?" Yu Qi asked.
"Why not?" Grandpa Long was very relaxed.
"We are in this casual clothes. This restaurant has clothes requirements." Yu Qi stated.
"Don"t worry about that." Grandpa Long said.
So, after parking the car, they walked to the restaurant. Before they arrived at the entrance, they heard someone saying something and laughing. From their sentence, it seemed these people were laughing at three of them.
"Poor people think they can be rich after getting a few Yuan. They come to eat at this restaurant wearing clothes like that." "They are probably a new money. Of course, they did not know about the rules."
"Someone should teach them about the rules."
The group were talking about Grandpa Long, Long Hui and Yu Qi. Of course, they ignored these people. Long Hui narrowed his eyes. The group went to the reception and wanted to enter the restaurant. "We would like a table for five." One of the group asked the waiter at the reception. "I am sorry to inform you, sir, that we are fully booked." The waiter smiled.
"What? Fully booked?" The man asked.
"Yes, Sir." The waiter maintained a smile.
"What is this, Guang? You tell us that we are going to be able to get a table if we come earlier." His friend said.
"Yeah... I even dress up today." Another friend said. "This is not my fault. I don"t know if it will be fully booked tonight." The man with the name Guang stated. He was embarra.s.sed by this situation. Today, they asked two women to join them for dinner. "Excuse me. Can you move away?" Grandpa Long said.
He wanted to speak to the waiter in front but these people blocked the path. "Uncle, you should go home. There is no way that you can get in wearing those." The man with the name Guang scoffed. "Grandpa, they call you uncle. You should be proud looking so young." Yu Qi chuckled.
The people finally looked at them clearly. Two handsome men and a gorgeous-looking girl. Even though they were wearing casual attire, the clothes could not hide the bearing of someone. Not to mention, the men had similar faces. "Please step aside." Grandpa Long said again.
The group of people stepped aside giving s.p.a.ce to Grandpa Long to walk to the waiter.
"Sir, we are sorry that we are fully booked for tonight." The waiter stated while his eyes were looking at the clothes. "Even though I have this?" Grandpa Long took out a card and placed it in front of the waiter. The waiter"s eyes contracted for a moment. He then put on a polite smile.
