Chapter 168: Arrogant
It's just 7:00 p.m., this hot pot restaurant is already full of people, very lively, and 5 people queued for a while to wait for their place.
Perhaps their line was too large and stood out in the whole hot pot restaurant, so the waiter took them directly to the big table in the bread room.
Waiting for them to take their seats, the waiter separated and handed them a menu before slowly walking out.
As the saying goes, it is difficult to reconcile everyone, and it can be regarded as a troublesome matter for choosing the bottom of the pot, so Fang Yiran hesitated for a moment with the menu, intending to ask for everyone's opinions.
"Who can't eat spicy?" As he spoke, his gaze wandered among the several people again.
"Zhang Yan?"
"I... Luckily, I like spicy food. ”
"Nguyen Nguyen? Vegetarian? ”
"None of us eat spicy food."
Fang Yiran nodded, and finally began to ask Xu Zhengqing, "What about you, Xu Zhengqing?" ”
"I can do it, there's nothing I can't eat."
Pointing to Guo Di's side, Fang Yiran finally decided: "Since two people can eat spicy, two people can't eat spicy, and one remains neutral, then just make a mandarin duck pot!" ”
"No opinion, right?" As he spoke, he looked tentatively at the people around him, and everyone nodded.
"Okay, then since the bottom of the pot has been decided, let's order some dishes first, I heard that the shrimp in this shop are smooth and delicious, and the bullfrog is also good."
Fang Yiran said, he also checked the menu, and seeing that everyone had almost ordered, he collected and sorted out the menu and gave it to the waiter on the side.
I have to say that although this shop is very popular, with a large flow of people and a lot of visitors, and even to the point where there is a long queue, the serving speed is not slow at all, but after waiting for 5 minutes, some of the side dishes at the bottom of the pot have been served.
Looking at the gurgling and bubbling in the pot, a large table of people put their favorite side dishes into it one after another.
Originally, I was a little worried that it would be difficult for me and Zhou Rusu to fit into the three people who suddenly stepped into the same front as them, but I didn't expect that this meal would be quite happy.
While eating, the three of them talked about some fun things in their school, among which Fang Yiran was the most active, and although Xu Zhengqing didn't say anything, what he said was often a direct hit on people's laughter, causing everyone to laugh and almost choke on spicy.
And Zhang Yan, although she basically didn't say anything, she had been listening quietly, and when she encountered something funny, she laughed happily, and gradually, she was not as shy as she had just met Wen Ruanruan and Zhou Rusu.
The atmosphere between the 5 people is quietly changing with this hot pot.
"Oh, look at us! I forgot to eat this shrimp slippery when I spoke, the shrimp slip is the most delicious, I'll go and ask the waiter to help us! ”
Fang Yiran said as she walked to the side and called a waiter to help dig spoonful by spoonful, and the shrimp on the plate were slippery.
"The shrimp are easy to cook, and you can't cook them for too long to maintain the texture, one minute at most." The waiter reminded as he dug with a spoon on the side.
"Don't worry, the big table we sit at is full of foodies, and we still have to wait for a minute, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for half a minute!"
The waiter couldn't help but laugh a little, and couldn't help but glance at Fang Yiran a few times.
"Alright, please slow down."
"Thank you!"
I have to say that Fang Yiran's enthusiastic and active personality is indeed very likable, not only Wen Ruanruan, but even Zhou Rusu is also a little overwhelmed in the face of such a Fang Yiran.
Just as he was slipping a small piece of shrimp and blowing it into his mouth, Fang Yiran glanced at it sharply, and saw the glass of coconut water on Zhou Rusu's table, which was already empty.
"Vegetarian, your drinks are gone, do you want me to add some more for you?" Fang Yiran raised his head and asked Zhou Rusu.
Zhou Rusu just wanted to refuse, but before his voice could be spoken, he was suddenly interrupted.
"What a coincidence, you guys are also eating hot pot here?"
Wen Ruan Ruan followed the prestige, and the person who spoke was Li Xiaole, who had a conflict with Zhou Rusu before.
I saw her hooking the corners of her mouth and holding Zhao Qinghuan on the side, smiling with an unknown meaning.
"It turned out to be Xiaole's senior! Xiaole seniors and Qinghuan seniors don't mind, do you want to make a table with us, everyone is sitting together to eat is also very lively! Looking at Li Xiaole and Zhao Qinghuan who suddenly appeared, Fang Yiran opened his mouth and proposed.
Obviously, not only Wen Ruan, Ruan Zhou, Rusu, Fang Yiran, and they also know these two people.
After all, they belong to the same department, and if you don't look down and don't look up, the office area may be all together, and the recent batches of projects are either under Director Tang or under Director Wang, and it is really not uncommon to know these seniors.
"No need!" Li Xiaole directly refused, his eyes were vague, and he glanced at Zhou Rusu, with these incomprehensible flavors.
"You've all eaten so much, it's not appropriate for us to sit down again, besides, it's okay for me and Qinghuan to be quieter."
Li Xiaole raised his chin, looking arrogant and dependent, not only Zhou Rusu, but even Fang Yiran, his face was a little unbearable.
Fang Yiran had to smile awkwardly, "That's right, it's that I didn't think it through, we've all eaten so much, and it's really not good to let you sit down again." ”
Glancing at Fang Yiran, Li Xiaole said in a low voice: "It's good to know." ”
Zhang Yan, who was sitting next to Fang Yiran, was a little unhappy, his hands were clenched into fists, he was already trembling a little, and he was about to say something but was stopped by Fang Yiran, signaling her not to act rashly, Zhang Yan couldn't resist Fang Yiran, biting his lower lip, and had no choice but to give up.
"Little music! People are also well-intentioned, you should also pay attention to what you say, the same is in a company and a department, even if it is a junior, we can't do this. ”
Li Qinghuan was a little helpless, but somehow, Li Xiaole's inexplicable arrogant momentum suddenly sprouted again, giving him a little headache.
With Zhao Qinghuan's words, Fang Yiran had to go down the stairs, and there was no longer so embarrassment on his face.
However, this Li Xiaole is not a good stubble, and he doesn't plan to leave it at all, so he walked in front of Zhou Rusu, stood next to Zhou Rusu, pointed his chin to Zhou Rusu, and said slowly: "I heard, you are the school flower of the University of Finance?" ”
Pretending to glance at Zhou Rusu, Li Xiaole continued: "However, you don't rely on the status you have in the school, just walk sideways in Shengjin, even if it is in our financial management department, you are just a newcomer, sometimes you have to pay attention to this bit of proportion when you speak, otherwise you will only be yourself who suffers in the end, do you understand?" ”
This lecture was directed at Zhou Rusu by name, which made a large table of people a little confused, and they were more or less suspicious in their hearts.
Did Zhou Rusu contradict this Li Xiaole? Could it be that Zhou Rusu relied on his wealth and mixed well, so he ignored Li Xiaole, a senior, and did some bad behaviors?
But everyone just went through it in their hearts, but they didn't say anything.
After being quiet for a moment, Zhou Rusu raised her eyes to look at Li Xiaole, a pair of apricot eyes swelled with emotion, but in the end, they only converged into three words.
"Got it."
Zhou Rusu's attitude was humble, and Wen Ruan Ruan saw it in his eyes.
The current Zhou Rusu is no longer the man of the year in the University of Finance a few months ago, the one who was in the University of Finance, was held by the stars, chased and worshiped by everyone, and the beauty and wisdom coexisted.
Here, Wen Ruan Ruan only saw Zhou Rusu, who was forbearant and humble.
"It's good to know, I hope that something like that won't happen next time I'm in the office, okay, I won't tell you, Qinghuan and I still have to go to eat."
Originally, he wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Zhou Rusu's compromised and docile appearance, Li Xiaole felt that it was not interesting to continue, and he was also a little hungry, so he no longer cared about these and pulled Li Qinghuan away.
"That Li Xiaole, do you usually do this to vegetarians?" Fang Yiran frowned and asked.
“… Our office area is very close, and we usually can't avoid some contact, maybe I have some things that she is not very happy with. ”
"Even if that's the case, your problem won't be his turn to discipline." Zhang Yan, who was silent on the side, suddenly spoke.
Zhou Rusu smiled, but her face was bitter, "What's the solution?" I have only come to Shengjing for a week of internship, and if there is a conflict with my seniors in such a short period of time, it will have a great impact on my assessment. ”
"I'm so angry! The last time I went to the director's office to hand in the documents, I also ran into this Li Xiaole, but an intern accidentally bumped into him, and he looked like he was going to die, if it wasn't for Director Tang's timely appearance, he was still holding people there, I really don't know how Sheng Jin would still have such a person! ”
Shaking his head, Xu Zhengqing said to Fang Yiran: "The world is so big, there are no surprises, and it is not strange to have such a person." ”
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, our hot pot hasn't been eaten yet, don't affect our mood for these side things." As he spoke, Wen Ruan Ruan put the shrimp that had been lying in the bowl for a while into his mouth.
"This shrimp can't be boiled for too long, otherwise the taste and texture won't be so refreshing."
"yes, yes! It really doesn't taste good after a long time! Fang Yiran nodded and echoed on the side.
Seeing that Zhou Rusu's bowl was also empty, and there was nothing at all, Fang Yiran opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong with Rusu?" Why don't you add anything to eat, look at what this pot is boiling, if you don't fish up these foods, they will be boiled! ”
Zhou Rusu lowered his head and looked into his bowl, it was indeed empty, and there was only the sauce he had prepared before, so he raised his hand and stretched out his chopsticks, added a few pieces of baby cabbage and put it in the bowl.
With everyone talking to each other to adjust the atmosphere, just now because of the unhappiness brought by Li Xiaole, it also dissipated a lot for a while, and it didn't take long to consume all the food.
Wiping his mouth with a tissue, Fang Yiran said, "You sit down first, I'll go check out!" ”
After saying that, he stood up and went to the front desk with the menu.
