But I have to say that Stan Sowden acting skills were so good that Patricia Scurr was almost fooled by this guy's gentlemanly demeanor.

Luke Zimmerman looked embarrassed and glanced at Stan Sowden. He was already very unhappy with Stan Sowden.

Stan Sowden's face was expressionless, with a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth. He thought that such a piece of trash could be a hundred times stronger than himself? Is Patricia Scurr an idiot?

Doesn't Patricia Scurr think that she is uncultivated and unmotivated? You should just keep a high profile and let this woman see what the gap is!

A tall and charming French beauty waiter led the three people into the restaurant.

The people who come in and out of Louise's restaurant have a touch of nobility and elegance in their behavior and actions. You can also see many foreigners, and you can vaguely smell the atmosphere of the upper class.

The hall is very spacious and the light is elegant and soft. It is more like a high-end social place than a restaurant.

On the stage where spotlights gather, there is also a band playing jazz.

Arriving at a seat, Stan Sowden and the others sat down and were about to order.

Luke Zimmerman himself is not really interested in Western food, but he feels that he can express himself better here, which in layman’s terms means he can show off better.

Because he felt that he had been influenced by the upper class society, and only by showing his excellent side to Patricia Scurr would this beautiful woman look at him with admiration.

In this high-end French restaurant, even Patricia Scurr may not know the etiquette and culture of dining.

At this time, Luke Zimmerman could calmly and elegantly teach the girl how to eat, and talk about the French romantic culture he learned about from Baidu, so that Stan Sowden, a country bumpkin, couldn't get a word in.

To this end, Luke Zimmerman also specially learned a few basic French sentences.

After he sat down, he pretended to be serious and said hello to a French waitress in broken French.

The French waitress responded with a smile and stepped forward.

"Luke Zimmerman, I really didn't expect you to speak French."Patricia Scurr said with a faint smile.

"It's just so-so. In fact, it's just a rough knowledge, not great."Luke Zimmerman felt a little proud. He just showed off his French in the hope that Patricia Scurr would praise him.

"You're so modest. I think you speak French very well."Patricia Scurr complimented.

As the president of a fashion company, she often participates in foreign activities. Patricia Scurr also knows some French.

What Luke Zimmerman said was not very good, but after all, he was his old classmate, so he still needed to be given a little face.

"Is it good? Why do I feel so so? My sentences are not fluent and my level is quite bad."Stan Sowden suddenly said.

Upon hearing what Stan Sowden said, Luke Zimmerman became unhappy, his face darkened, and he said disdainfully: "From the tone of Mr. Shen, it seems that he is quite accomplished in French?"

Stan Sowden nodded: "Well, at least he is more accomplished than you."

Luke Zimmerman was a little dissatisfied. He felt that Stan Sowden was showing off.

Originally, Luke Zimmerman wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule Stan Sowden, but he actually didn't understand French very well. This topic didn't feel easy to go into, so Luke Zimmerman quickly changed the topic.

"It would be a pity not to drink brandy when I come to a French restaurant. Ruoxue, do you know that the French people's favorite drink is brandy. This brandy is a special distilled liquor made from various fruits. It is fermented and distilled, and then stored in oak wood before being brewed. The fruity aroma is particularly strong, making it a top-quality wine."

Luke Zimmerman began to show off the knowledge he had found on Baidu.

Patricia Scurr was not very interested in wine culture, so she could only smile in agreement.

Patricia Scurr could bear it, but that didn't mean Stan Sowden could. He said impatiently to Luke Zimmerman, "Okay, stop pushing and start ordering."

Luke Zimmerman face suddenly darkened and he said unhappily: "Mr. Shen, this is a high-end occasion. Please pay attention to etiquette and don't use bad words."

Patricia Scurr was also quite dissatisfied with Stan Sowden's words and felt that she had been completely humiliated.

However, Stan Sowden was the boyfriend she claimed to be. Patricia Scurr still wanted to defend him and said softly: "Luke Zimmerman, don't worry about it. Stan Sowden just can't wait any longer. Let's order food quickly."

"All right."

Luke Zimmerman didn't hesitate too much. He just glared at Stan Sowden coldly, as if he were a country bumpkin, and said in a arrogant tone: "Mr. Shen, please maintain etiquette during the rest of the meal."

Stan Sowden saw that Luke Zimmerman was very unhappy and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Luke Zimmerman felt that he had a noble status and did not bother to communicate with Stan Sowden, so he immediately started ordering.

Stan Sowden didn't realize it was a little funny. This guy was showing off in French before, but when he ordered, he switched to Mandarin.

Luke Zimmerman looked at Patricia Scurr and asked, "Patricia Scurr, what do you want to eat?"

"I'll just do whatever I want."Patricia Scurr said with a faint smile.

In order to show his courtesy, Luke Zimmerman still calmly asked Stan Sowden: "Mr. Shen, what do you need to eat?"

Luke Zimmerman eyes were a little contemptuous. Although Stan Sowden dressed like a dog and was a little more handsome than him, he was definitely a country bumpkin. Not to mention having eaten top-notch French meals, he might not even know how to order.

Stan Sowden glanced at the beautiful French waiter and said in fluent French: "Beautiful waitress, please bring me a piece of Saint-Jacques scallops, French-style pan-fried tuna, and grilled Camembert cheese."

The French waitress's eyes lit up. When she heard Stan Sowden speak such fluent French, she couldn't help but said excitedly: "Sir, you can speak such fluent native French. I have never met you in this country."

Patricia Scurr pretty face was dull for a while. This man actually knows French? And so skillful and fluent?

"I have lived in France for several months and have left nothing behind. I have memorized the local language."

Stan Sowden communicated with the French waitress in rather literary terms.

The waitress was also very happy. It was the first time she met such a gentleman and a Chinese person, and she chatted enthusiastically with Stan Sowden in French.

"Fuck!"

Luke Zimmerman looked at Stan Sowden and the French waitress in disbelief.

Damn it, this country bumpkin actually speaks French?

He highly suspected that Stan Sowden was talking nonsense, but judging from the excitement of the French waitress, Stan Sowden seemed to be speaking fluently.

Patricia Scurr pretty face was dull, and she never expected that this guy who usually seemed sloppy and sloppy could actually have some real talent.

Such fluent French is not something that ordinary people can master.

At this moment, her impression of Stan Sowden changed slightly. Thinking of the grandfather trying every possible means to get this man engaged and living together, is there really some reason?

Luke Zimmerman said before that he knew French, but now he was embarrassed to say that he didn't, so he could only look at Stan Sowden and the French girl with a smile on his face, pretending that he could understand French too.

The waitress did not dare to disturb Stan Sowden and the others. She only chatted enthusiastically with Stan Sowden for a while, then prepared the menu with a blushing face.

Stan Sowden's speech and behavior fascinated her.

When Luke Zimmerman saw that Stan Sowden had already ordered the dishes, and the one he ordered was the most expensive, he couldn't help but feel a trace of resentment in his heart.

In order to show his generosity, Luke Zimmerman also ordered a few bottles of top-quality brandy. This amount of money was only a drop in the bucket for him.
