Chapter 132: A Lunch
The four of them walked out of the elevator and followed the sign of a glass corridor outside the building to the restaurant in the middle building.
This time, the drive took about four hours, and the colleagues of the group who did not need to be on night duty were in good spirits, sitting in the car to eat and drink, and getting off the bus were still in good spirits.
Three groups of people who got off the night shift yawned all day after getting off the bus.
The four of them walked to the restaurant and saw that the original position, a table was not full, there was half a table of people in the corner, Zhu Fu and Pan Lingli, the director of a group, were there, and there were four people, sitting in different positions and chatting.
Pan Lingli is the youngest of the four supervisors, and the one with the best temper, only twenty-four years old, relying on his patience, he got two players' thank you letters and pennants within a month, and became famous.
Pan Lingli, who has been promoted because of his work ability, is also notoriously unmanageable among the four supervisors, and most of them distribute their powers to each game leader.
Therefore, many game team leaders want to transfer to a group, and everyone hopes that they can have more rights and more.
Bai Xiaojiu had only heard of this supervisor, and he didn't usually intersect, and he didn't pay attention when he got out of the car today, but now he walked towards them, and then he realized that Pan Lingli didn't look like a person in his twenties at all.
With a mature face in his thirties, some naturally curly hair, dark skin, some retro black-rimmed glasses, and a beard, at first glance, he really couldn't tell that he was the youngest of the four supervisors.
Zhu Fuzheng was talking to him, and it seemed that he was chatting very happily, and when his eyes came unconsciously, Yu Guang saw Bai Xiaojiu and beckoned again and again, "Hurry up, this table is not full, I am dying of hunger." ”
"What about the others, why are you at the same table?" Bai Xiaojiu took the opportunity to pull out a chair opposite him, motioned for Zheng Qing to sit down, and then sat down beside her.
"I'm either sleeping, I'm not hungry, and I'm running early. You go and call your group down, let's get together at the table and eat first?" Zhu Fu lay on the table and tilted his head slightly to talk to her.
His fair-skinned eyes are beautiful, and lying on his arms and looking up like this, his eyes appear to be bigger, and he is a little pitiful.
"Where are all the people in my group? I don't know, I'm going to call?" Bai Xiaojiu was indifferent to him being extremely good at pretending to be pitiful.
"Mobile phone. Hurry up and call someone to eat!!" Zhu Fuxue slapped the table like a child, and almost rolled on the ground, "You don't feel sorry for me!"
Bai Xiaojiu and Zheng Qing have been working under him for a long time, and they know his urine very well, but Qi Jingchen doesn't know at all.
Seeing him looking at his daughter-in-law like that, he was already unhappy, and always felt that he was spoiling her.
When I heard this again, I was about to explode, but I didn't know what I could do, so I instantly clenched my fists and glared at him angrily.
Bai Xiaojiu just turned around to take his mobile phone, about to call others, when he saw Qi Jingchen's angry expression, he was shocked, put his hand on his knee, and stared at him with his eyes.
Qi Jingchen just looked at Zhu Fu unpleasantly, and always felt that he had some intentions for Bai Xiaojiu, and was touched by Bai Xiaojiu's hand like this, and turned his head to look at her.
Seeing Bai Xiaojiu's expression, he couldn't see joy and anger, but a trace of seriousness could be seen in his eyes, and he looked at her a little confused.
"I'm going to call the team members, will you accompany me to the door?" Bai Xiaojiu didn't know what was wrong with him, but he couldn't argue with him in front of others, and was ready to find an excuse to take him out.
Qi Jingchen just didn't want to see the blessings, so he couldn't wait to accompany Bai Xiaojiu all the time, so he hurriedly got up.
Bai Xiaojiu gestured to the wishing charm, pointed to his mobile phone again, signaled himself to go out to make a call, and when he glanced at Qi Jingchen with a smile, he dragged his hand, almost dragging, and quickly brought him to the door of the restaurant.
Pulling Qi Jingchen with one hand, and dialing quickly with the other, she called He Xiao first, and as soon as she picked it up, she asked simply and clearly: "Are you hungry?" Do you still want to sleep? Come down and eat." I'll be waiting for you at the restaurant. ”
He Xiao just closed his eyes in the room, chatting with another newcomer who was not very familiar, and looked out the window when he received the call, and he didn't plan to sleep, so he simply agreed, "Okay, then I'll come down to eat with Xiao Li." ”
"Well, you call the other two people and ask them to come down for dinner too. Even if you are sleepy, you should eat and sleep. You can also go to the hot springs together in the evening. ”
Bai Xiaojiu felt that Qi Jingchen's anger came inexplicably, he was a little curious, and he felt very speechless, when he talked to He Xiao, he spoke very quickly, and it might not be so comfortable to listen to.
When He Xiao agreed, she realized that she was too outgoing, so she restrained herself a little and spoke a lot softer.
He Xiao didn't hear it, but for Bai Xiaojiu, he was more convinced than before, and he didn't dare to refute it, so he responded honestly, "Okay." I'll give them a call. ”
After Bai Xiaojiu finished talking to He Xiao, he walked to the door of the restaurant, his eyes swept around, and he didn't see anyone else coming, so he took out the cigarette case, lit a cigarette slowly, and turned to look at Qi Jingchen.
Qi Jingchen was very quiet when she was on the phone, and was honestly dragged out by her, and then saw her turn around with a cigarette in her mouth, and took out the cigarette herself and lit it.
As soon as the smoke rose, he remembered that Zhu Fu had just looked at his daughter-in-law with wide eyes, as if his eyes were foggy, and he felt uncomfortable again.
Bai Xiaojiu took a deep breath of cigarette and slowly spit it out to the side, then looked at him, frowned slightly, and quickly let go, trying to squeeze out a smile, "What's wrong with you?"
"Me? Qi Jingchen just exhaled smoke, and always felt that her question was a little serious, and he couldn't help but stand up straight.
But he was so much taller than her, and when he stood upright, he had to look down at her, and his momentum was much more than her.
Qi Jingchen looked around left and right, and there was nowhere to sit down, looked at her height, looked down at himself again, simply lifted his jeans, and slowly squatted down.
With a cigarette in his hand, he looked up at Bai Xiaojiu, and continued to repeat with an innocent face: "It's really not much." ”
Bai Xiaojiu felt that his anger came inexplicably just now, and after thinking about it carefully, he didn't figure out what happened just now.
After asking this sentence, she suddenly remembered that Zhu Fuai was coquettish with them, pretending, should it make him unhappy like this?
Thinking about it, if there was a girl she didn't know who pretended to be so coquettish in front of Qi Jingchen, probably she would also be crazy, right?
Thinking about it like this, the faint discomfort just now was gone, and then when Qi Jingchen looked down at her and spoke, when she saw that she needed to raise her head, she slowly squatted down again.
This thoughtfulness and extraordinarily well-behaved look made her heart warm for a while, and she lost all her anger, but felt that it was her own fault.
It's because she doesn't care enough about his feelings, and either she should tell him what kind of person the blessing is, or she shouldn't bother with the blessing.
Of course, it's hard to ignore the blessings.
"Congratulations, it's our director. As for others, that's it, like that to everyone, like a noisy child. We're all used to it. The way of getting along is also fixed. ”
When Bai Xiaojiu said this, he simply squatted down, looked at him at eye level, and lowered his voice softly, "Can you understand?"
Qi Jingchen was originally sulking in his heart, but now that he was pierced by Bai Xiaojiu so clearly, he always felt a little unspeakably bored.
He didn't know what he wasn't happy about, and he should be happy when she said what was on his mind.
But she can explain it like this, which shows that she cares about him in her heart, right?
Qi Jingchen has never been in love, and he doesn't know what to do, so he has always had some gains and losses.
When he faced Bai Xiaojiu, he was like a milk dog, and when he opened his eyes, he was the first to see Bai Xiaojiu, and his eyes were full of only her, and he couldn't look down on anything else.
Bai Xiaojiu is like the "dog bone" in his bowl, and he is very protective of food, if anyone takes a second look, they will scream, if someone dares to come and grab it, he can even fight hard.
Or Bai Xiaojiu is like the master he identifies, even if she shows a little affection for other people of the same kind, it is enough to make him crazy.
Bai Xiaojiu saw that he was just staring at her in a daze, and he didn't speak, he raised his hand and shook it in front of him, "What's wrong? Still not happy? Oh, he's just like that, just ignore him! Really! No, I'm not saying I don't care about him, I'm saying you don't care about him......"
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jingchen reached out and held her dangling hand, and suddenly smiled, the more he smiled, the happier he became, "I know." ”
After saying these four words, he looked at the other side with red ears, and lowered his voice a little, "Do you care about me too?"
Bai Xiaojiu's attention was immediately placed on the word "also", and he pursed his lips and laughed.
This one word can make her understand a lot, and her heart is bubbling with happiness, and the bubbles rise one by one, scurrying around in her body, making her more than just itchy.
Qi Jingchen didn't get a response from her, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, and his eyes looked at him with grievances.
Bai Xiaojiu saw him like this, smiled from ear to ear, moved away, approached him, kissed him on the cheek, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Yes." I care about you too. ”
The word "also" was very heavy, which made Qi Jingchen laugh too, and when he laughed and laughed, he felt that he was a little stupid like this, and he was embarrassed to glance at her and look at the other side.
Bai Xiaojiu liked his shy appearance very much, smiled and looked at it a few times, then slowly stood up and shook the hands held by the two people, "I'm hungry, do you want to go in and eat?"
When Qi Jingchen stood up, she was afraid that the hand she was holding would cause her to fall, and her hand didn't dare to move at all.
In order not to let her fall, he hurriedly threw away the cigarette in his hand, stood up and hugged her into his arms, "If you're hungry, go eat." But there are only a few people in your group, can you get enough for a table?"
"That guy is here, he's okay with spoiling, maybe we can go back and have enough people. Speaking of the blessing charm, Bai Xiaojiu glanced at him a few more times, and saw that his expression was natural, so he was relieved.
Qi Jingchen was really unhappy just now, but Bai Xiaojiu specially explained to him, and said that he cared about him, so he could not think about anything.
At least at this moment, in the face of Zhu Fu, a person he doesn't like, he won't think about it anymore.
The two of them walked back to the corner of the restaurant hand in hand, and there were a few more people at the table, just empty The place of He Xiao and a few people came out.
Not long after Bai Xiaojiu and Qi Jingchen sat down, He Xiao walked down with three newcomers and laughed, greeted a table of people and sat down.
Zhu Fu saw that the table of people was finally gathered, so he exhaled and asked the restaurant manager to serve the food.
Or he had said hello before, and the speed of serving the food was faster than Bai Xiaojiu imagined.
From childhood to adulthood, when I ate banquets outside, most of them were cold dishes and the dishes were not served.
When the dish is served, it is almost an empty dish.
Otherwise, it is all served in one go, but there is no dish that makes people have an appetite to eat.
The company didn't know what dishes were ordered, but there were crabs and shrimps.
Steamed crabs are served according to the number of people, one per person.
A plate of steamed prawns looks okay, and it looks quite appetizing when placed in the middle.
Zhu Fu looked at the steamed crab with some disbelief, and reached out to take one with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "September and October are just the time to eat crabs, and this is the company's procurement to help with steaming." ”
This Bai Xiaojiu has heard that sometimes when he travels, the company will buy some ingredients or drinks to bring with him, which is more assured and more cost-effective than buying directly in the restaurant.
"The company is quite atmospheric. It's really good to look at. As soon as Zheng Qing heard that the company was paying for it, he then reached out and took one for Bai Xiaojiu first, glanced at Qi Jingchen with disgust, and took one for Zhang Jueyu.
Bai Xiaojiu looked at her childish behavior, smiled and took one for Qi Jingchen and put it in a bowl, "The crab at this time is indeed good." ”
Qi Jingchen looked at the crab that Bai Xiaojiu put in the bowl with an embarrassed face, a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to tell her, so he could only nod, "Hmm." I, taste. ”
Bai Xiaojiu didn't see his embarrassment, and began to slowly dismantle the crabs.
She likes to eat crabs and shrimp very much, her favorite is crabs, she especially likes to eat slowly, one by one the crab legs are disassembled, the crab roe and crab meat are not let go at all, and she likes the taste of crabs stained with sauce and vinegar dishes if she is not jealous.
Bai Xiaojiu took apart the crab legs, opened the crab shell, and at a glance, Qi Jingchen was still staring at the crab in the bowl in a daze.
"You don't like crabs?"
"I'm not going to peel the shell. Qi Jingchen replied honestly, always feeling that this answer was a little cowardly, and looked down at the crab without looking at her.
Every time I admit in front of her that I don't know anything, I feel as if I'm worthless.
When Bai Xiaojiu heard this answer, he chuckled, moved his bowl over, and skillfully took out the crab meat with his toes and put it in his bowl.
"It's okay, you have me, I'll just peel your shell for you. Bai Xiaojiu's voice was very soft, and his movements were also very light.
Qi Jingchen turned his head to look at her and lowered his head to help him peel the crab shell, carefully picking out the crab meat in the crab legs, and inexplicably felt that his eyes were hot.
Since he was a child, he actually likes to eat crabs, but he was pierced by the thorns of the sea crab shell, and he began to be afraid to touch the crabs, just like he was stuck by fish bones when he was a child, and he didn't dare to eat fish even if he liked it.
Even his mother was reluctant to help him peel off the crab shell, and at this moment, a girl he had put on his heart was lowering her head to help him peel it carefully, completely ignoring herself.
That kind of emotion made him want to hold her and not let go, and shouted to the whole world: "She's mine!
