Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

After packing up, she went to the suite outside and saw Xia Yu sitting in front of the dressing table putting on makeup.

Shen Jialing and Xiao Cui were muttering to themselves.

The two talked for a while, and then picked up the cosmetics on the table to smell and look at them.

"Sister Ai, I haven't seen you for one night. How come you've grown so much taller?"

Ai Shutong smiled and said, "It's a secret."

It was Xia Yu who quickly exposed her true colors, "She must have put something in her shoes."

Shen Jialing feels that the world outside is so exciting and there is something new to see and hear every day.

"I want to learn makeup. Makeup is really amazing. It can not only make people ugly, but also make them look good."

Ai Shutong chuckled, "Hey! Hey! Lingling, everyone who puts on makeup wants to be beautiful. No one would make themselves look ugly."

Shen Jialing disagreed: "Sister Ai doesn't look as good after putting on makeup as before."

Ai Shutong was about to explain when there was a knock on the door. She walked over and opened it, and saw Shen Jiaxing standing outside in a long robe.

Ai Shutong looked him up and down and gave him a thumbs up. "I haven't seen Teacher Shen wearing a robe for a long time. I suddenly think he looks pretty good."

Shen Jiaxing blushed slightly at the compliment, "Are you planning to go back to your ex-husband's residence today?"

Ai Shutong opened the door and invited him in. "If I don't go back, I'm afraid Jin Hengshu and Li Yanran will find out. I want to find someone to find out the situation first. What if Mother Lin didn't go back to Qianduju?"

Seeing that she had some sense and was not eager to go back, Shen Jiaxing nodded in agreement and said, "It's better to be cautious. It's a good idea to investigate in advance. Do you want me to find someone to help you investigate?"

Ai Shutong waved her hand: "No, I can handle it!"

Shen Jiaxing tugged at his robe, feeling that he had wasted so much time picking out and changing clothes.

When the hand of the clock in the living room reached nine, the women packed up and went downstairs to eat together.

Ai Shutong sincerely suggested: "Since we are not acting together, we won't get together for dinner next time."

Shen Jiaxing nodded and told Shen Jialing, "Lingling, there are waiters who speak Chinese here. You are already fifteen years old, you should learn to order food by yourself."

The biggest difference between this visit to the Beijing Hotel and the last time was that Ai Shutong was rich now, but she still remembered that the waiter in the white coat said last time that the room rate included three meals a day and an afternoon snack, and the price would remain the same whether she ate or not.

So after she sat down, she directly called the waiter in a white coat and asked, "Is there any free meal available?"

The waiter smiled professionally, "Yes, our free meal in the morning is a piece of toast, a fried egg, and a glass of milk per person."

"But the supply time is from 7 to 9 in the morning, and the supply has stopped at this time."

Ai Shutong: “…”

If there is any problem, the merchant has the right to interpret!

Ai Shutong asked in detail about the free service hours for lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, and even found a pen and paper to write them down.

Shen Jiaxing didn't care about her being an idler and directly called another waiter and quickly took the order.

He also enthusiastically taught Shen Jialing the English words on the menu.

Ai Shutong became anxious when she saw that everyone except herself and Xia Yu had ordered food.

I didn’t care whether it was expensive or not, and just ordered my favorite steak and fruit salad, and asked for a cup of coffee.

In order to train Xia Yu's ordering ability, Ai Shutong asked her to order by herself, "Xia Yu, order whatever you want. Didn't I get some money for you before you came? Use it first, and ask me for more if it's not enough."

Xia Yu was braver than Shen Jialing and Xiao Cui. When ordering, although she couldn't understand the English words on the order, she looked at the pictures, communicated with the waiter, and then ordered toast and fried eggs.

Ai Shutong asked worriedly, "Don't you want to order something to drink?"

Xia Yu quickly opened her handbag and took out a glass of water, "I brought water, just drink it."

She had just asked, and it turns out that a glass of water here costs one cent. It's too expensive to eat a bowl of noodles outside. It's more economical to bring your own water.

Before they finished their meal, Alan pushed the door open. He looked around and saw Shen Jiaxing, then strode over to him.

"Hey! Shen, did you get up late? Why are you having breakfast now?"

Shen Jiaxing put down his fork, "Alan, please forgive me, I have my reasons."

"Before you came, there were four women here and I was the only man. Do you think it would be quick?"

Since the two of them were communicating in English, only Ai Shutong understood among the four women. She looked at Shen Jiaxing with contempt, "Huh! Men! You always put the blame on us women for all the bad things."

"I didn't ask you to wait. Your legs are long, so you can come down to eat anytime!"

Although the other three women didn't understand, they knew from their expressions that Ai Shutong was blaming Shen Jiaxing.

All three of them looked at Shen Jiaxing with serious faces.

Shen Jiaxing was really scared of them, so he waved his hands and apologized: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll buy you this meal to make amends."

Ai Shutong: "Well, I'll forgive you this time, but don't do this again next time."

Shen Jiaxing exaggeratedly wiped his forehead, which was not sweaty, and pretended to be frightened.

Alan watched his performance and suddenly felt that his friend had grown older and his personality had become much more lively.

After the two got in the car, Allen asked curiously: "Shen, your attitude towards Miss Ai is a bit strange."

Shen Jiaxing knew that his sister and Xiao Cui could not understand English, so he said directly to Allen: "That's because I have evil intentions."

Alan's hands trembled and he almost bumped into a street vendor. Shen Jiaxing quickly shouted, "Hold steady, don't panic!"

Alan swerved the steering wheel back, returned to the main road, slammed on the brakes and stopped.

He looked at Shen Jiaxing in surprise, "Brother, you actually like women?"

Shen Jiaxing stared at him with dead fish eyes, "What do you mean?"

Alan waved his hands quickly and explained, "No, you, you, ..."

"When we were in college, Maria pursued you, but you didn't agree! Maria's figure and looks made her the dream girl of all the boys in school. If you liked women, how could you reject her?"

Shen Jiaxing shook his legs, "We have different aesthetics, that's your personal opinion."

Alan still couldn't understand why Miss Ai was so thin, like an underdeveloped bean sprout, and she could attract friends.

Shen Jialing was just thrown around by the car and now the car has finally stopped, but her brother and his friend are just sitting in the front and talking.

"Is the car broken? Do you want to go down and fix it?"

Shen Jiaxing turned around and said, "It's okay. The car can drive and we will be at the Forbidden City in a little while. Although we can't go inside, it's nice to take a look from the outside."

After saying that, he turned to Alan and said, "What's there to think about? It's already happened, so we have to face it. Let's drive!"

Alan started the car while cursing at him.

"The thing I regret most in my life is being friends with a man like you who doesn't understand romance."
