Chapter 1192: A Beauty Treats Me to Dinner!
Chen Yang wasn't really familiar with them. He came over mainly because he was worried that these three crime suspects would keep selling those harmful things.
Now that the issue was resolved, he naturally had no reason to stay any longer.
After saying what he needed to, Chen Yang left directly.
"Bro! I haven't properly thanked Dr. Chen for today, let's get together again tonight, I'm leaving first."
Seeing Chen Yang leave, Tan Jing quickly said to Tan Zheng before running out.
Tan Zheng was stunned by his sister's reaction.
Then he couldn't help but smile and shake his head: "This girl, she's really incorrigible."
Outside the house.
After Chen Yang came out, without thinking much, he got into his car and started it up, ready to leave.
Just as he was about to drive off, Tan Jing suddenly ran out from the house.
Seeing Chen Yang's car moving, she hurriedly waved her hand and called for him to stop.
"What's up, Officer Tan? Is there something else?" Chen Yang stopped the car and asked with a smile.
Tan Jing didn't explain and jogged up to Chen Yang's car, opened the passenger door, and sat inside.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? You helped me out so much, I still owe you a meal and haven't thanked you yet." Tan Jing said while catching her breath.
Chen Yang subconsciously glanced at the rhythmically rising and falling chest.
After a quick glance, he swiftly shifted his gaze back to Tan Jing's face.
"You still remembered the meal, I thought you forgot."
Chen Yang laughed.
Tan Jing also smiled: "Of course not, we keep our promises, no going back on our word."
When Chen Yang first met Tan Jing, he thought she was one of those very serious girls.
After today's series of events, getting familiar with her, he realized she's actually quite lively.
"Haha, alright then, since you said so, I won't be shy, and will have that meal." Chen Yang agreed with a smile, then drove away from the village heading towards the county.
By the time they reached the county, it was already late, around 3 PM.
Most of the restaurants were closed and would only reopen around 4 or 5 PM.
Only a few well-known ones remained open.
No choice, Chen Yang had to randomly pick a reasonably priced restaurant from the ones that were open.
Entering the restaurant, they picked a random spot to sit down.
"You're not really holding back, huh? This place isn't cheap, is it?"
Sitting down, Tan Jing scanned the surroundings and remarked.
Hearing this, Chen Yang was amused yet helpless.
When choosing a restaurant, he'd deliberately looked for one that wasn't too expensive.
If it were to match the usual specifications with Wu Kexin, Wang Qingyue, and the others, it might be even more costly.
"No problem, I can cover the bill; you can owe me your treat for now." Chen Yang said with a smile.
Tan Jing hastily shook her head when she heard this.
"That won't do, today I said I'll treat you, so I will; it's not reasonable for you to pay." Tan Jing insisted.
Chen Yang smiled at her words, saying nothing more.
At this moment, the waitress handed over the menu.
Chen Yang took it, symbolically ordered two dishes, and then passed it to Tan Jing.
"I'm done, see what you'd like to order." Chen Yang said.
Seeing that Chen Yang had already ordered first, Tan Jing took the menu without saying anything.
Just as she was about to order herself a few tasty dishes, she suddenly glanced at what Chen Yang ordered.
Seeing he only ordered two dishes, she looked a bit helpless: "Dr. Chen, you're considering too much for me, only ordering two dishes."
"Haha, right, you said it's too pricey, how could I order more?" Chen Yang laughed, joking along with Tan Jing.
In fact, he wasn't picky about food, so he really didn't know what to order.
The two dishes he ordered were ones he specifically picked from the menu.
Usually, he doesn't even order dishes.
Tan Jing and Chen Yang had just met, so naturally, she didn't really know him.
She took it seriously, really thinking Chen Yang was saving money for her.
So she handed the menu back to Chen Yang and said, "Order two more, even though it's a bit pricey, I can afford it, don't be polite with me, just order."
Hearing this, Chen Yang could only nod and agree with a smile.
"Alright then, as you wish, I'll order two more."
With that, Chen Yang took the menu and ordered two or three more dishes.
They were all substantial dishes, not cheap ones.
The meal easily added up to around two or three thousand.
Seeing Chen Yang order like that, Tan Jing's eyes widened in surprise.
It was clear she felt the pinch and was reluctant.
Having seen similar expressions when dining with others, Chen Yang would undoubtedly think the person was stingy.
But with Tan Jing, it didn't evoke such thoughts at all.
Instead, he found this girl charming with her honesty in expressing herself.
"What's wrong? Feeling the pinch again? This meal might cost you half a month's salary." Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh and remarked.
Tan Jing felt the pinch, openly nodding: "Yes, half a month's salary gone."
Seeing her like this, Chen Yang couldn't stop laughing, continuing to tease: "Should I cancel then?"
"No, no, no, it's ordered now, it's just a few thousand, let's eat." Tan Jing gritted her teeth, seemingly making a big decision.
"Alright, this is what you said, we'll stick to these dishes then."
Chen Yang accepted with a smile, then returned the menu to the waitress to serve the dishes.
Watching the waitress leave, Tan Jing felt the pinch again.
But it didn't last long; once the waitress completely disappeared, she returned to normal.
She began to chat casually with Chen Yang.
The dishes began to arrive as they chatted.
So they continued chatting as they ate.
Having only met yesterday, besides knowing each other's names and having a basic understanding of their professions, they knew little else.
Thus, sitting together, they had plenty to talk about, unable to stop.
They started by discussing each other's professions.
Learning that Chen Yang is a doctor who also runs his own business, Tan Jing was quite impressed.
"You studied medicine, yet started a business, that takes a lot of courage, right?" Tan Jing asked.
Chen Yang took a sip of water and calmly answered: "Actually, it was fine, I just naturally ventured into business, nothing specially prepared."
Hearing this, Tan Jing admired Chen Yang even more.
"That's impressive; unlike me, I graduated from police academy and have only ever been a cop, haven't ventured into other fields." Tan Jing pondered, resting her chin on her hand.
Chen Yang smiled: "That's good too, graduating into a stable job, something I wish I had."
"Haha, true, my field is quite stable, no need to think about other things." Tan Jing grinned, feeling proud of her career's advantages after hearing Chen Yang's comment.
Seeing the quick change in this girl's attitude, Chen Yang wondered what it would be like if she interacted with Dai Annie and Yang Ruoxi.
The trio would probably cause quite the commotion.
