Jimmy returned to the restaurant. He had seen Mahong's call earlier and thought it was urgent, so he didn't dare to answer it directly at his seat. Now it seemed everything was going smoothly. Mahong's weak spot was his family; as long as that weakness didn't exist, he could act more freely.
James and Mary were very satisfied with today's dinner, and Jimmy was finally at ease. Choosing Chinese cuisine was a bit of a gamble for him, since, back in Little Rock, he rarely dined with James and Mary at restaurants and was unsure of their tastes. Even when he occasionally ate Chinese food, it was usually fast food.
Coming to New York this time, he naturally hoped to gain their approval. French and Italian cuisines were too mainstream and uninteresting, so he opted for Cantonese, the most widely accepted Chinese cuisine in the United States.
