Lost in the source of the forest Chapter 57, wait for the rabbit
He Pinghe quietly walked towards the arched door, and more than a dozen welcoming girls left with the guests, leaving a tall and thin girl, with a purple short skirt overalls, a striped shirt and a purple slim vest, and a bow at the neckline, laughing like a boiling hot pot wafting out an alluring fragrance.
"Welcome! Two people, please. The girl bowed in greeting, straightened up, and stretched out her arms to invite the two of them in.
"Do you want to stand in line?" Jing Jing still can't let go of the worries in her heart.
The welcome girl had a look of embarrassment on her face, she wasn't sure if there was a place now, and she usually welcomed the guests to the rest area first. If there is a place to lead the guest directly to the arranged position, if there is no place to give the guest a good card and wait in the lounge area. Serve tea, fruits, etc., and guests will not be easily lost.
The welcome girl took the two to the front desk, the girl walked forward, communicated with the staff at the front desk, and when she turned around, she saw a relaxed smile and knew that there was still a place, the girl came closer, clasped her hands lightly in front of her, and said, "There is still a place, two of you here, please!" ”
"This hot pot restaurant really lives up to its name," He Ping sighed.
The hot pot restaurant is divided into different areas, there are two people, three people to go, as well as family areas and party areas, each area is designed according to a specific group of people, carved galleries, grass curtains, lantern decorations of different heights, at a glance is a joyful scene.
He Ping and Jingjing were brought to the position where the two of them went, although it was the position of the two, the wide table and the two tables and chairs prepared were enough for four people to eat hot pot.
After sitting down, the welcoming girl bowed politely and said, "Please wait, you two, the waiter will come shortly." ”
After seeing He Pinghe quietly and politely taking the lead in responding, the welcome girl smiled and turned to leave.
He Ping kept looking left and right curiously, he was looking around to see if there was anyone he wanted to see.
"What are you looking for?" Quietly leaned down, took a sip of lemonade and asked in a low voice.
"I'll see if this person comes." The first time He Ping came to this place, it was a normal reaction to look around out of curiosity, but he was not afraid that others would be wary.
"Are you sure he'll come?" He Ping is here, Jing Jing doesn't have to worry about whether this person will appear, even if it does, what unexpected things happen He Ping will easily settle down, after all, this person is much weaker than a huge mutant wolf.
"Not sure, but likely to come!" He Ping glanced around, found no trace of that person, turned his face, took a sip of lemonade and said.
The waiter came over with the menu, but before the person arrived at the table, he smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, there are a lot of customers, so I'm slacking." ”
He Ping likes such a waiter who is neither humble nor arrogant, the smile is sincere, the apology is sincere, and the guest feels a kind of cordiality, rather than the feeling of being slaughtered after consumption.
"It's fine." Jing Jing smiled and nodded in response.
The waiter handed out two menus, one for He Ping and one for Jingjing, pointed to a blue button on the corner of the table and said, "Two of you, please order, if you need anything, you can press this and call me." ”
"Okay, thank you!" After quietly looking at the waiter, he turned his gaze to the menu.
The waiter turned away and walked to a four-person table not far away.
He Ping's gaze followed the waiter, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face, "Did you appear?" ”
I saw that at the table of four people not far away, there were four men, about thirty years old, the oldest was no more than thirty-five years old, and the young man wearing sunglasses he had seen before was also among them, drinking lemonade facing him.
Now that he appeared, He Ping was finally relieved. Ghosts are scary because they can't be seen or touched. If one occurrence is accidental, then two occurrences are accidental, then the probability of accident is too great, and it is not wrong to regard it as a necessary possibility.
"Quietly, see if there are any of those four people you know!" He Ping pointed to the four of them and said.
He Ping was no longer as careful as before, but as if he was in a zoo, pointing at animals through a glass window, he didn't care.
Quietly put down the menu, looked at the four people in the direction He Ping pointed, identified them carefully, recalled for a moment, and said, "The older one seems to have appeared at the gate of our community, and I remember that he asked me for directions." ”
"Oh, I look like I'm looking for you!" The worry in He Ping's heart has been reduced a lot, if it weren't for the mutant animals, he feels that these are not problems.
"What are they looking for me?" Asked quietly.
If He Ping didn't say it, Jing Jing really didn't know that the appearance of these people was aimed at herself.
He Ping looked at the phone, put it down, and said, "I don't know very well, I'll find out after asking." ”
"How do you ask?" Jing Jing was a little worried in her heart, as a girl, it was indeed a terrifying thing to be targeted by a group of strange men.
"Don't worry, it's okay. Is the dish ready? He Ping looked confident, and he didn't take these four people seriously at all.
"Okay, let's see if you want to add more." Quietly handed the menu to He Ping and said.
He Ping took the menu, browsed it quickly, nodded constantly, and said, "Well, I love to eat these, that's all, if you don't have enough to eat, we'll order it." ”
He Ping pressed the blue button, and the waiter came with a smile.
"Excuse me, is the dish ready?" The waiter asked with a smile, without a hint of distance.
"Alright, thanks, add some lemonade." He Ping said as he handed the menu forward.
"Okay, wait a minute, do you want lemonade to this beauty?" The waiter set his eyes on Jing Jing, who was stunned.
"Oh, no thanks!" Jing Jing hurriedly came back to her senses and responded with a smile.
He Ping saw that Jing Jing was under some pressure in his heart, and he was a little irritable in his heart, so it seemed that he had to get these people away quickly, don't delay eating hot pot quietly and happily.
He Ping looked at his mobile phone, and the message showed two words: 'in place'.
The idiom of waiting for the rabbit is a derogatory term, and smart people always scoff at it, feeling that only stupid people can do these things, and He Ping came in today to wait for the rabbit.
He Ping stood up and said to Jingjing, "I'll go to the bathroom, don't worry, you can eat the food first." ”
Jing Jing raised his eyes and saw He Ping's mysterious smile, knowing that he must have something secret to do, and nodded silently.
After He Ping left, he walked leisurely to the bar, there was a little boy playing in the passage and almost fell, he hurriedly dodged over to help him up, and the little boy's mother also smiled with gratitude.
The four people who had been paying attention to He Ping and Jing saw He Ping leave casually, thinking that they hadn't noticed their existence, and their hearts relaxed.
He Ping walked to the bar, with an unquestionable expression on his face, knocked on the marble table on the bar, and said, "Don't ask why, take me to the top of your store." ”
The cashier at the bar looked at He Ping, who was not like an ordinary person in terms of temperament and tone, and did not dare to ask more, so he said timidly, "Then I'll make a call first?" ”
He Ping stretched out his hand and made a gesture of asking the cashier to call.
After the cashier dialed the phone, after briefly describing the situation, he just nodded yes again and again.
After hanging up the phone, he politely said to He Ping, "Mr. Ma is on the fourth floor, he will come down immediately, please wait." ”
He Ping shook his head and said, "No need, you find someone to take me up to him." ”
The cashier looked a little embarrassed, and under He Ping's forced eyes, he nodded timidly and said, "Wait a minute." ”
The cashier walked over to a waiter who happened to pass by and whispered a few words.
The waiter looked at He Ping, with some horror in his eyes, nodded quickly, walked up to He Ping, and said, "Sir, please!" ”
He Ping nodded and followed the waiter around the bar and walked to an elevator, where there was a pot of beckoning trees on the left and right of the elevator, and He Ping stroked the leaves with his hand, without any dust.
"It seems that the hygiene here is very good," He Ping said in his heart, but he still wiped his fingers with the ball of paper in his hand.
When the 'ding' elevator arrived, He Ping was just about to enter, and a middle-aged chubby man in a suit was about to walk out, and the waiter immediately said, "Mr. Ma, this gentleman wants to see you." ”
He Ping and Mr. Ma looked at each other, and their unfamiliar faces suddenly didn't know where to speak.
"Excuse me.." Mr. Ma was about to speak, but He Ping pushed him into the elevator.
Mr. Ma was a little nervous, but he didn't dare to make a noise, just handed the waiter a look of withdrawal.
When the waiter saw Mr. Ma's eyes, he consciously took a few steps back and watched the elevator close.
He Ping turned around and pressed the button on the fourth floor, and said to Mr. Ma, "I'm sorry, I can't reveal my identity like you, I need your help with something." ”
The panic in Mr. Ma's heart was quickly suppressed, it seems that he is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves, and it may be difficult to open such a large Pacific Hot Pot City without some strength, not to mention that there is still Mobao hanging in front of the door, and ordinary shops can't do it at all.
"Sir, please tell me something." Mr. Ma showed a relaxed smile, he could feel that He Ping would not do anything to him, so unscrupulous to himself, I am afraid that his strength is extraordinary. A person of such strength will not do irrational things.
He Ping didn't reply, his eyes stared directly at the flashing numbers on the elevator, and the elevator door opened.
Mr. Ma took the lead in stepping out, made a gesture of please, and said, "Sir, please!" ”
He Ping nodded and followed Mr. Ma to his office.
The elevator on the fourth floor is a hall, there are three corridors in the hall, He Ping followed Mr. Ma quickly along the middle corridor to an office door, which reads 'General Manager's Office'.
When the door opens, a spacious and bright office can be called luxurious, with carved balustrades and bonsai decorations. On the right is a tea room, and on the left is a sofa for a group of guests.
"Sir, sit down and talk slowly." Mr. Ma asked He Ping to go to the tea room.
"No, borrow your office." He Ping said undoubtedly.
"Who are you?" Mr. Ma frowned, he had already treated him as a VIP, and the other party refused to disclose his identity, and his tone was so tough, he frowned.
He Ping smacked his mouth, hesitated to take out his documents from his pocket, opened them with two fingers, and held them up in front of Mr. Ma.
Mr. Ma's face turned pale when he saw it, he was stunned, nodded hurriedly, didn't ask anything anymore, and said, "Please!" ”
Mr. Ma was about to leave, He Ping stopped him and asked, "Is there a camera here?" ”
Mr. Ma shook his head and said, "Don't worry, there is no monitoring equipment." ”
