Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 444 - 347: The Second Invitation_2
Thinking it over, Li Jing decided it would be best to use these 10 points to draw a language skill.
He quickly found the option for language talent skills in the system, and sure enough, discovered the language enhancement skill.
Li Jing did not hesitate at all and decisively chose this option.
Immediately, system information popped up in his mind:
[Spent ten points to draw the language enhancement skill.
Draw completed, resulting in: The host has acquired 15 commonly used languages worldwide.
The 15 languages include: Chinese, English, Spanish, Arabic, French, Russian, Portuguese, German, Japanese, Korean, Italian, Hindi, Urdu, Indonesian, Dutch]
Li Jing was full of surprise, he didn’t expect to directly acquire fifteen languages.
The system lottery never disappointed him.
He couldn’t contain his curiosity and attempted to express his thoughts in French, German, and other languages, unexpectedly speaking them fluently.
Although he wasn’t sure whether he spoke perfectly, he could clearly feel that a complete language system had been constructed in his mind, allowing him to express his thoughts clearly and accurately.
Li Jing was very satisfied, initially thinking he would draw a few languages at most, but unexpectedly obtaining 15 commonly used languages worldwide, which would undoubtedly be a great help for his upcoming overseas travels.
As he was thinking this, Shi Yang’s crisp voice came from behind: "What are you doing here? I’ve already booked the position, didn’t I say just go straight in? Standing at the door in the cold wind?"
Li Jing turned around and didn’t explain; he just said seriously, "As a gentleman, it’s better to wait for a lady to go in together."
Shi Yang gave him a sideways glance and said huffily, "You a gentleman? Who would believe that?"
With that, the two walked into the restaurant side by side.
Entering this Western restaurant, a rich European retro style overwhelmed them, with brass wall lamps, carved wooden furniture, and old items complementing each other, appearing exceptionally classy and elegant.
Li Jing and Shi Yang moved towards a window-side seat, this restaurant was situated at a high position with an extremely broad view.
Seated here, the sea horizon was completely within view, making one feel incredibly delighted, obviously a spot carefully chosen by Shi Yang.
Soon, a waiter in a neat suit quickly approached, placed a thick menu on the table, and said politely to Shi Yang: "Miss, this is our menu, please order."
Shi Yang picked it up, and inside was filled with dense English and French, without a single Chinese character.
Li Jing glanced at it, surprised to find he could easily understand the French descriptions.
It seemed the language ability granted by the system wasn’t limited to verbal communication; writing and reading shouldn’t be a problem either.
As for the high-end Western restaurants not using Chinese characters to appear stylish, he was used to it, having encountered it in several restaurants before, so he couldn’t criticize.
Shi Yang held the menu and asked Li Jing casually, "Should I order, or do you want to order?"
In her mind, Li Jing couldn’t understand French; the question was just a formality.
Li Jing didn’t mind and nodded, "Order whatever you want."
Shi Yang understood, didn’t expose him, and replied, "Alright," then skillfully conversed in English and French with the waiter to place the order.
She held the menu, faced the waiter with a polite and gentle smile, ordering in fluent English with a natural and smooth accent.
Subsequently, as if considering the pairing of today’s courses, she supplemented with a few special requests in French.
She tilted her head slightly, gracefully and naturally pointing at the menu with her slender fingers, without the slightest affectation.
One must admit, although Shi Yang had a bit of a spoiled personality and was proud, her demeanor and overall quality far surpassed ordinary girls.
After the waiter respectfully took the menu and left, two servings of appetizers were promptly served.
Meanwhile, not far away, a surprised female voice sounded: "Hey, isn’t that Shi Yang? Eating here too?"
Hearing this voice, Li Jing instinctively turned to look, seeing a young woman in a delicate dress walking over, intimately holding the arm of a foreign man.
Furthermore, Li Jing noticed Shi Yang momentarily furrowed her brow upon seeing this girl.
"Dai Min? What are you doing here?"
The girl named Dai Min was radiant, exuding a sense of nobility as a rich young lady in her movements.
Upon hearing Shi Yang’s words, she chuckled lightly and replied, "Shi Yang, if you can eat here, why can’t I? What a thing to say."
Saying this, she curiously glanced at Li Jing seated across from Shi Yang, her eyes flashing with surprise and deep gossip curiosity, exclaiming:
"Oh wow, how rare, you’re hardly seen interacting with boys? This is my first time seeing you dining alone with a man.
Is this your boyfriend? You must introduce him; I’ve never heard you mention him."
Hearing this, Shi Yang’s expression changed slightly and quickly explained, "He’s not my boyfriend, he’s... just my ordinary friend."
Shi Yang momentarily didn’t know how to introduce Li Jing’s identity, appearing somewhat unnatural.
Dai Min keenly captured the slight sense of unease in Shi Yang’s tone, growing even more interested, scrutinizing Li Jing as if he were an item, making Li Jing uncomfortable.
Apparently thinking of something, she turned to Shi Yang and said, "Is this... that person you mentioned last time..."
"No!"
Before the sentence was finished, Shi Yang immediately interrupted.
Previously, Shi Yang was deceived by a fake rich second-generation scumbag, which spread like wildfire, becoming a laughingstock, even though the Shi Family discovered it in time, preventing any substantial loss, it became a topic for many.
Upon hearing the mention of this event, Shi Yang’s face immediately darkened, seriously explaining: "He’s a friend my grandfather introduced to me, from Tianhai."
Shi Yang brought up her grandfather to prove Li Jing’s identity, showing he wasn’t one of those imposters.
"Oh? Your grandfather introduced him?"
Upon hearing Li Jing was introduced by Shi Yang’s grandfather, Dai Min’s face flashed with a hint of surprise subtly, and she proactively extended her hand to greet Li Jing with a smile:
"Hello, I’m Dai Min, Shi Yang’s childhood friend. Nice to meet you."
Li Jing glanced at her.
He had seen many people, men and women, with or without schemes; he could see through them.
This woman immediately gave Li Jing a bad impression.
Especially her ostensibly friendly demeanor towards Shi Yang, with a fake smile, made Li Jing a little disgusted.
Thus, facing her greeting, Li Jing merely nodded coldly, not intending to introduce himself.
Seeing Li Jing’s indifferent attitude, Dai Min, initially enthusiastic, was momentarily stunned, not expecting this attitude from Li Jing, and slightly furrowed her brows in displeasure.
Shi Yang, seeing Li Jing’s proud and cold posture again, unexpectedly felt a bit of satisfaction.
Especially when it came to Dai Min; suddenly, Li Jing’s character became slightly more pleasing to her.
But soon, Dai Min recovered her enthusiastic smile, as if what happened earlier with Li Jing never occurred.
She continued to smooth things over herself: "Shi Yang, your friend is quite aloof, he must be some rich family’s young master, right?"
Though she said this, her tone carried a hint of sarcasm and displeasure.
In Hai Province, among the rich second-generation surpassing the Dai Family and Shi Family, they were acquaintances.
Even though Li Jing was from Tianhai, Dai Min didn’t think his family background could surpass hers.
After all, in the entire Hai Province, families more advantaged than hers were few, the Dai Family and Shi Family were on par, being one of the largest in the province.
Due to this, the Dai Family and Shi Family had business overlaps and competition, frequently resulting in minor conflicts over business.
This made Shi Yang and Dai Min, as the younger generation, grow up with a sense of rivalry.
Especially Dai Min, seeing Shi Yang was surrounded with glory from a young age, always a goddess-like figure among the rich second-generation, inevitably feeling jealous and attempting to compete each time she saw Shi Yang.
Upon noticing even Shi Yang’s seemingly random friend dared give her cold treatment, Dai Min’s mood sank slightly.
