Chapter 32: An Unexpected Dinner
Nian Mingyue has been much more honest than before since she was confined by Nian Xingchen, although she has been let out now, but if there is nothing to do, she still tries to stay at home as much as possible, trying her best to save her position in Nian Xingchen's heart, hoping that Nian Xingchen can let go of her financial restrictions because of this.
Just when Nian Mingyue was lying bored in her room and didn't know what to do, she suddenly received a call from an unfamiliar number, and after being puzzled for a while, she still answered the phone.
"Mingyue, it's me."
A somewhat familiar voice came from the phone, and Nian Mingyue couldn't help but guess: "Is it Sister Rou?" ”
"Well, it's me, it's my domestic number."
After confirming that it was Jian Rou on the other end of the phone, Nian Mingyue couldn't help but complain.
"Sister Rou, you finally remembered me, last time you even asked Lin Xueqing's girl to go shopping together, and you didn't say call me!"
Nian Mingyue was still worried about the last time she met Jian Rou and Lin Xueqing eating together.
Jian Rou hurriedly explained: "I happened to meet Xueqing that day, didn't I call you as soon as I was free today, how about it, are you free today?" Would you like to have dinner together? ”
"Okay, what do you want to eat, I'll treat you."
Nian Mingyue agreed in one bite, for her, Jian Rou is like a big sister, and the relationship between them has always been very good, although Jian Rou broke up with Nian Xingchen, it did not affect the relationship between the two of them at all.
"How can I let you invite it, it's still the old rule that I have a treat, but I'm not too familiar with these foods in Jiangcheng now, so let's decide the place."
"Then let's go eat Sichuan cuisine, it's good to open a new Sichuan restaurant, although it's not high-end, but the taste is still very good, you will definitely like it."
Nian Mingyue said a little excitedly, she hadn't eaten with Jian Rou for a long time, although she had met in a hurry, but she didn't have a chance to sit down and have a good chat.
"Okay, then let's go eat that, you send me the location later, we'll see you in the evening."
"Okay, see you in the evening."
The two of them happily agreed on dinner, and Nian Mingyue was finally no longer idle, and began to freshen up and prepare for the evening date.
At this time, Xia Meng was still working hard, seeing that her colleagues around her were packing up and leaving one by one, but she still insisted on her post and worked hard.
At this time, Mu Sisi came to her side.
"Xia Meng, I'll invite you to dinner in the evening, thank you for today's lunch."
"Oh, no need, what's not to thank, besides, I have to work overtime at night."
Xia Meng was a little embarrassed to refuse.
Mu Sisi continued with a persistent face: "You will be tired and sick if you work overtime like this every day, and you have to combine work and rest at work, okay, besides, since you came to the company, we haven't gone out to eat alone, you just give me this face, let me invite you to dinner, okay?" ”
Mu Sisi was right, the two of them had indeed never gone out to eat together, and she was also Xia Meng's best colleague in the company, so Xia Meng had no choice but to agree.
"Okay then, then you invite this time, and I'll invite you next time."
"Okay, that's it, let's go, I just booked a super hot restaurant, and I won't reserve a place for us if I'm late!"
"Okay, let's go now."
Saying that, Xia Meng hurriedly packed up his things and left the company with Mu Sisi.
Because it was the rush hour after work, there was a bit of traffic jam on the road, and the bus was originally a few stops, but they were allowed to sit for more than ten minutes.
As soon as he got out of the car, Mu Sisi hurriedly pulled Xia Meng and ran towards the door of the restaurant.
"Right here, the main dish in it is Sichuan cuisine, can you eat spicy?"
Mu Sisi said while pulling Xia Meng to run.
Xia Meng also hurriedly replied: "I like spicy food the most." ”
"That's great, let's get in quickly."
With that, the two of them came to the door of the restaurant.
Mu Sisi hurriedly took out his reservation code and showed it to the waiter at the door.
"Hello, we have an appointment, this is my appointment code."
"I'm sorry for this young lady, you're late, we only keep a 30-minute appointment, and you're 5 minutes late!"
The waiter said apologetically.
Mu Sisi also hurriedly glanced down at the time, they were indeed 5 minutes late, so he hurriedly begged the waiter.
"Huh? What can we do, you can give us accommodation, there was a little traffic jam on the road just now, you just let us in, right? ”
"I'm really sorry, our restaurant has rules, why don't you make a new reservation?"
The waiter politely rejected them.
Just when the two of them were at a loss, a voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Miss Xia, are you also coming over for dinner?"
Xia Meng hurriedly turned around when she heard the sound, but saw Jian Rou standing behind her, and there was still a person standing next to Jian Rou, that person turned out to be Lin Xueqing's nemesis, Nian Mingyue!
But at this time, she didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly greeted Jian Rou.
"Miss Jane, hello, I came here with my colleagues, are you also here for dinner?"
Saying that, Xia Meng glanced at Mu Sisi beside him, but Mu Sisi was full of surprise at this time.
At this time, Jian Rou suddenly said: "Yes, we are also here to eat, since you have no place, why don't we eat together?" ”
Just now, Jian Rou listened to Xia Meng's conversation with the waiter clearly, so she directly invited Xia Meng.
Xia Meng refused her kindness without thinking about it.
"I really don't need Miss Jane, you guys go in first, and we'll make another appointment."
As soon as Xia Meng finished speaking, Nian Mingyue on the side unexpectedly said something to Xia Meng.
"Why don't we eat together?"
Xia Meng was a little stunned in an instant, did she have auditory hallucinations? Was Nian Mingyue inviting her to dinner just now? How could she invite her to dinner?
At this time, Jian Rou on the side was also very surprised, and hurriedly asked Nian Mingyue beside her, "Mingyue, do you know Miss Xia?" ”
"She is a friend of Lin Xueqing, and she has met a few times before."
Nian Mingyue replied indifferently, not seeing any emotion, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
However, at this time, Nian Mingyue has her own plans, if she finishes eating with Xia Meng today, will she be able to go to Nian Xingchen to invite merit?
Xia Meng was really a little too surprised, but he still quickly refused Nian Mingyue's invitation.
"I'm afraid this is not good, you really don't have to worry about us, let's make a new appointment."
"Since you are Xueqing's friend, then don't be polite to me, let's eat together."
Jian Rou said with a sincere face.
Xia Meng was really embarrassed to refuse anymore, so he could only agree.
"Okay then."
Then she pulled Mu Sisi, who was excited, and followed Jian Rou and Nian Mingyue into the restaurant together.
As soon as she sat down, Jian Rou politely introduced herself and Nian Mingyue to Mu Sisi, giving full play to her beautiful temperament.
"Hello, I'm Jian Rou, and this is my sister Nian Mingyue."
"Hello, I'm Xia Meng's colleague, my name is Mu Sisi."
Mu Sisi also hurriedly greeted the two.
After a few people got to know each other, they began this slightly awkward dinner.
Xia Meng ate the whole meal like pins and needles, and he couldn't wait to end it quickly, but he always kept a smile on his face, and his face was almost a little frozen. She really didn't know how Lin Xueqing would react if she knew that she had dinner with Nian Mingyue today.
Mu Sisi on the side seemed very natural.
Although a few people don't talk much, they get along quite well.
However, Xia Meng never understood how Nian Mingyue would invite him to dinner together?
In this way, under Xia Meng's constant speculation, the meal was finally over.
Then she hurriedly ran to the front desk, ready to pay for today's dinner, after all, Jian Rou gave her a big order, how could she not understand this bit of human sophistication.
Just as Xia Meng was about to check out, the cashier gave her a reply that made her a little embarrassed.
"Hello, miss, the young lady at your table has already paid the bill."
As soon as Xia Meng wanted to ask who had settled the account, Jian Rou had already come to her side.
"Xia Meng, what are you doing, I have already settled the account."
"I'm so sorry, Miss Jane, you did me such a big favor and asked you to invite me to dinner today."
Xia Meng said with some embarrassment.
Jian Rou still has a gentle face.
"It's okay, you're Xueqing's friend, and you're also my friend."
"I'm so embarrassed, I'll let you be invited next time."
"Okay, next time you can invite me again."
As soon as Jian Rou finished speaking, Nian Mingyue also happened to come over, and then she continued with a gentle face: "Then let's go first today, let's see you another day." ”
"Okay, see you another day."
In this way, Xia Mengmu sent Jian Rou and Nian Mingyue away.
Mu Sisi on the side couldn't wait to gossip about her.
"Wow, Miss Jane is really beautiful and temperamental!"
"Indeed."
"By the way, you also know the girl named Nian Mingyue next to her? Who is she? ”
"I don't know her very well, she's just a friend of a good friend of mine."
Xia Meng did not tell Mu Sisi about Nian Mingyue's true identity.
However, Mu Sisi couldn't help but guess.
"You said that the girl's surname is also Nian, and Miss Jian is the ex-girlfriend of the president of Nian's family, so that girl just now shouldn't have anything to do with Nian's family, right?"
"Okay, don't guess, we just had a meal."
"Alright, let's go back then."
"Hmm."
In this way, this unexpected dinner tonight is finally over, and Xia Meng finally set foot on the way home.
