Chapter 53
The blonde young lady before him changed her expression faster than a person who was flipping a page from a book . Zhang Lisheng fell silent for a moment and sighed helplessly as he said, "Perhaps I shouldn't have saved you . " He then skipped school for the first time in America and had gotten himself into a brand new red BMW TT parked by the street .
Tina started the engine and drove at speed limit immediately . She asked proudly, "Mr . Worm, I wonder what's your real name?"
Zhang Lisheng who was sitting in the passenger's seat watched the people going by outside in the city streets that had just woken up . He said softly, "You had someone to follow me but you don't know my name, is that possible?"
Tina smiled awkwardly, "I know that's a little ridiculous . Okay Lisheng, I'll tell you where we're going today . First, we'll grab breakfast at the Goose Pond Restaurant, then I'll get myself a short, fresh, commoner's hairstyle at a barber shop in the blue-collar district so that I'll give a good impression to the civil court's judge . They'll definitely favor people of the same level if I look like a hardworking handyman…"
"Wait, we're not going to the court now?"
"Of course we are . The ticket that I got is for 1:30 p . m . later, it's still early . "
"Sh*t," Zhang Lisheng cursed while frowning, he said nothing since then . Just like that, Tina spoke occasionally to Zhang Lisheng who was silent all throughout their trip . They then arrived at Goose Pond Restaurant in New York's Upper East Side .
The Upper East Side was where the richest New Yorkers lived . If Manhattan was New York's crown, then this was the most dazzling gem on the crown, especially this little area stretched from East Fifth Avenue to West Lexington Avenue . If one was rich enough, living here would feel like the world was in their hands . One could say that this was heaven on earth as long as Goose Pond Restaurant was located here .
The restaurant looked small while the exterior looked rather old . Classic pillars and sculptures embellished the walls outside, there seemed to be no feeling of sophistication . The doorman was a tall, skinny old man with white hair . He wore a silly blue hat and he had a holy and serious expression that nobody would dare offend . There was a long queue before him . A lot of foreigners who were rather rich would want to enjoy an expensive and flashy breakfast at this place during their spare time . The place where travel guides gave five stars and named it the best breakfast restaurant in New York .
When Tina parked her car in front of Goose Pond Restaurant's door, a lot of people in the queue showed an expression as if they were ready to watch a good show . They were waiting for another person who would be taught a lesson by the old doorman . Unfortunately, they were destined to be disappointed .
Tina got off the car with Zhang Lisheng and walked to the restaurant's entrance arrogantly . She then tossed her car key to the old doorman directly and showed a long face, "Arthur, park my car for me and get me a can of diet coke across the road to freshen up . Do you know that I'll have to be questioned at the civil court this afternoon? The judge might revoke my license because of illegal parking . "
"Oh, New York court's too much but God'll definitely bless such a kind and beautiful girl like you . Everything will be fine," The seriousness on the old doorman's face melted right away as he comforted with sympathy . He then bowed courteously and opened the restaurant's door, "Welcome Ms . Tina and honorable sir to dine at the Goose Pond Restaurant . "
"Thanks, Arthur," Tina grabbed Zhang Lisheng's arm and just when she was walking into the restaurant, the dissatisfied people queuing at the back shouted suddenly, "Hey Mr . Doorman, didn't you say Goose Pond Restaurant doesn't accept reservation and there's no valet service? Why is that girl an exception! You…You're even getting her a diet coke? Oh my god, is this just a burger store or the best breakfast restaurant in New York Upper East?"
"Her family name's Douglin, sir," The old doorman responded to the customer's accusation with a tone of as if he was right, "The street was the Douglin family's barn over 100 years ago while this Goose Pond Restaurant was the goose pond in the barn . Since the day of Manhattan's establishment, the Douglin family have had their free pass entering any stores around here . They don't need a reservation and all attendants are happy to serve them . I'm sorry, I'll have to park Ms . Tina Douglin's car now . "
He then walked to the red BMW TT slowly and got into the car strenuously . He drove the car away slowly . Tina turned her head to look at the queue behind and showed an apologetic expression . She grabbed Zhang Lisheng and walked into the restaurant, leaving the customers who had their jaws dropped at the entrance .
As soon as Tina walked into the restaurant, a female attendant welcomed and greeted them showing eight teeth, "Welcome, Ms . Tina . Do you want your usual seat?"
"Yes, Tiffany . Thanks . "
"You're too polite, please follow me," The female attendant brought Tina and Zhang Lisheng to a small table by the window . The table gave them a direct view of the New York Central Park . She showed them to their seats and handed them the menus .
