Chapter 13: Idle Matters from the Dinner Table
I don't know if it's an illusion generated by himself, Xu Zichen inexplicably felt a faint hostility from this Dean's body? muttered in his heart: This is the first time I've seen him in person, where does this hostility come from? Or do I think too much?
Just as Xu Zichen was about to test him again, he heard Director Li Mingfu next to him shouting: "Okay, don't be polite here, I'm tired when I look at it, okay, can we fill our stomachs first?
Jin Zheng hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Haha, Director Li, what you said is that it was our negligence, come, please sit here, and Dean, too." β
In this way, several people sat down one after another, the small round table with eight seats was not too crowded for them at all, on the contrary, it was very spacious, I saw Director Li beckoning Dean and Xu Zichen to sit together, just like that, Dean was sitting on his left hand, and Xu Zichen was on his right, but Kim Taeyeon slowly walked to Xu Zichen and sat down next to Xu Zichen under the surprised eyes of everyone.
Not to mention the others, even Xu Zichen herself glanced at Kim Taeyeon unexpectedly, according to her familiarity, she shouldn't choose to sit next to Dean, thinking of this, Xu Zichen subconsciously glanced at Dean diagonally opposite him, and couldn't help but be stunned,
Although the other party's eyes were fleeting for a second and quickly hidden, Xu Zichen clearly captured the complex and seemingly lost eyes that he looked at Taeyeon.
Now Xu Zichen suddenly understood, this feeling Dean is Taeyeon's admirer! Hehe, although she knew from various entertainment news and variety shows that she has never lacked admirers in that circle, but Xu Zichen This is the first time I have seen this kind of "party" with my own eyes.
Xu Zichen suddenly felt that this meal was interesting, and he couldn't help but have a desire to tease him to see where his endurance would be.
This Xu Zichen casually poked Kim Taeyeon, who was sitting next to him, and asked everyone who was curious about it just now under her puzzled eyes: "What, Taeyeon, why did you choose to sit next to me? As the MV heroine, shouldn't you sit with the male lead?"
Kim Taeyeon looked at Xu Zichen with a blank face and said, "Hah, is there any relationship between the two? And what is the setting of the MV hero and heroine to sit together? Besides, I sit next to you purely because you are closest to me..."
This reason made Xu Zichen speechless, he could only silently observe the expressions of the other people present, Jin Zheng and Mingming, the two old men who had been with Taeyeon for the longest time, after hearing her incomparably nonsense reason, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly unconsciously, and they invariably complained in their hearts: Wow, this reason is so powerful, such a nonsense reason can only deceive outsiders......
Sure enough, I saw Dean nodding his head with a relaxed face after listening to it, and Director Lee Myung-bok glanced at Taeyeon with a smile and drank tea by himself.
Xu Zichen smiled secretly: Sure enough, then should I continue to add more fire?
Just as Xu Zichen was thinking about it, there was a knock at the door at this time: "Guest, the food is served." At the same time, the waiter pushed the door in, and the tables were filled with all kinds of mouth-watering delicacies.
When the last dish was served, the waiter smiled and said that your dishes were all ready, and then exited the private room, only to see that except for Xu Zichen, a Chinese, a cadre and others were stunned by the food.
Xu Zichen smiled and said: "Hey, what about you? These few dishes will make you can't take your eyes off, if you go to China one day and are lucky enough to see the Manchu and Han banquets, you will have to bite off your tongues!"
At this time, it was Director Li Mingfu who reacted first and asked: "The Manchu and Han Dynasty banquets? is your legendary court banquet in the Qing Dynasty? Doesn't it mean that it has disappeared because it is too extravagant and wasteful, how can you still see it now?"
Xu Zichen said with a surprised face: "I really didn't expect Director Li to know this, indeed, now the authentic Manchu and Han banquets are no longer available, after all, the things in it are too complicated, and the main materials of some of the ingredients in it are still strictly prohibited by the state, so now some time-honored restaurants in China are only imitations." β
I saw that as soon as Xu Zichen's words fell, he picked up Kim Taeyeon's set of utensils next to him very easily, went through it with tea, dried it with a paper towel and put it in front of her naturally, and the whole process was done in one go.
At this moment, the private room was silent, and everyone else present looked incredulous, and Kim Taeyeon looked at Xu Zichen with a dignified face and said, "Ah, Xu Zichen, did you take the wrong medicine?"
Xu Zichen was stunned when he heard this, and then when he saw a trace of gossip in the eyes of other people, he reacted and said: "Eh, don't look at me like this, don't get me wrong, I'm just subconsciously handy, what, do you want me to help you?"
Director Li Mingfu, who was on the other side of Xu Zichen, hurriedly smiled and shook his hand: "Haha, Minister Xu, you don't have to explain anything to us at all, as for your kindness, I understand it, by the way, Minister Xu, I don't know how much you drink? β
Xu Zichen subconsciously replied in a daze: "Ha? To be honest, I drink a lot of alcohol, but it's rare that Director Li is so interested, why don't you accompany me to the end." β
"Haha, Minister Xu is refreshing enough, then a few of our gay men are going to have a good drunk party tonight!" Director Li Mingfu decided so happily.
And Xu Zichen was immediately annoyed in his heart after Director Li finished saying that he was drunk, and he regretted that he wanted to slap himself with his heart. But what else can he do? The rhetoric has been released, and this is the so-called no zuo no die......
Before Xu Zichen came back to his senses, Director Li on the side had already poured wine into his cup, "Come, let's have a toast first, for the sake of Dean and Minister Xu, who are newly joined, I'll do it first!" After speaking, Director Li dried his glass of wine in a refreshing breath, and poured the wine glass to signal.
Seeing this, Jin Zheng and Dean also dried their own glasses of wine, and in the end, Xu Zichen was left alone to stare there, and under the gaze of three men and two women, Xu Zichen suddenly picked up the wine glass and drank it in one breath.
As soon as he finished drinking, he saw Xu Zichen covering his mouth and turning to the other side: "Cough cough cough...", it turned out that the last few sips of wine were drunk too quickly, and he was accidentally choked, and Kim Taeyeon on the side immediately patted him on the back when he saw this, and asked funny: "Ah, Xu Zichen, you won't also be a drinker, right? People with a good amount of alcohol won't be choked like you in the end, hey, your face is so red, hey, are you okay?"
Xu Zichen waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and after taking a breath, he turned around, but when the others saw Xu Zichen's face at this moment, they couldn't help laughing, Xu Zichen shrugged his shoulders depressedly and said: "Hmph, you just laugh, I know that my face is the same as the cooked shrimp, who made me the kind of person who blushes when I drink, I can't blame me, it's a complete physical problem, and I was brought out in my mother's womb, and I'm also very sad." Ah, Kim Taeyeon, you need to laugh so exaggeratedly!"
"Poofhaha, Mi Ah Nei, I can't help it, when I think of actually letting me see you who drink more than me, I want to laugh, hahaha, see who dares to call me wine in the future, I will immediately move out of you to be a shield! Come, Xu Zichen look here~ Let me take a photo. Before Xu Zichen could object, Kim Taeyeon quickly took out her mobile phone and came to him.
"Click", just like that, Xu Zichen's humiliation photo was produced in Kim Taeyeon's mobile phone, Kim Taeyeon looked at the photo and nodded with satisfaction, and said uncontrollably: "Hing~ The humiliation photo is in hand, Xu Zichen, do you see that you are swollen?"
Xu Zichen looked at the naΓ―ve three-year-old Kim in front of him with black lines on his face, and said speechlessly: "Hmm, in fact, this humiliating photo really doesn't matter to me, it's a time bomb for you, once this photo is leaked, people will only be curious about the relationship between me and you, what is the relationship between the man who appeared in Captain Girls' Generation's phone and Kim Taeyeon? So the reality is that you can only share it with your teammates, which is really no threat to me~"
This time it was Kim Taeyeon's turn to be dumbfounded, only to see her purse her mouth in disgust and said: "Cut, it's really boring, and you won't let me have a sense of expectation! It's so cruelly pierced, Xu Zichen, you are immoral like this, so you should punish yourself three cups to make amends to me!"
At this time, Director Lee Myung-bok spoke up: "Haha, Taeyeon, your reason has made me speechless, but, Taeyeon, just forget it for the sake of seeing that he can't drink, besides, I'm afraid he's already drunk now!"
"Huh, how could you get drunk so quickly?" asked Kim Taeyeon with a look of disbelief.
Director Li explained with a wry smile: "Because we drink authentic high-strength liquor in China, unlike the low-alcohol liquor in our country, it is not a problem to drink a few bottles." So it's not surprising that this kid got drunk with a drink. β
Kim Tae-yeon's eyes widened, and she pointed at Xu Zichen and said, "Then what is his current situation?"
"Well, maybe I can't say, some people are drunk and fall asleep, but this kid only has a dull look, Taeyeon, you can try him, hehe, now his IQ is estimated to be less than three years old~" Director Lee Myung-bok, who is disrespectful to the old, is like a demon at the moment, encouraging Taeyeon to "tease" the already drunk Xu Zichen who doesn't know who he is.
At this time, it was ten o'clock in the evening in Los Angeles, if Xu Zichen could have predicted his stupidity after getting drunk tonight, I am afraid that he would not have drunk that glass of wine if he was killed, but unfortunately there was no "if"~
