Chapter 53: Kevin's Arrival
Here at the kitchen door of the new store tavern, I put down my mobile phone, turned my head to look over, and the person who came out with me to talk to me was Jiang Xue, who came over after work to participate in the opening of the new store.
I looked at her indifferent expression, with a little anger in her eyes, so I stepped forward and said with a smile: "Look at me like this, like being beaten?" I don't have anything to do. ”
Jiang Xue glanced at me, and said angrily: "Don't pretend, in the tavern in front, I know all about the conflict between Fang Chao's Wang Ba Calf and you, as soon as I came over, I heard about you from the mouths of the guests, and the location of the card seat was specially left by Lao Wei to a few of our acquaintances, who else could it be if you didn't make trouble?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "What about ...... Xue'er, you didn't go to Fang Chao to theorize something, did you? ”
"What do you say?" Jiang Xue glared at me fiercely, she crossed her hands on her chest, and the peak became more and more obvious, probably angry.
"When I came over, he happened to leave the tavern with Lin Shile, met and walked by, and he didn't even say hello, and I didn't bother to pay attention to them, but looking at the expressions on the faces of the two of them, I knew that something must have happened."
Hearing Jiang Xue's explanation, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, that's good, Lao Wei told me and Lao Gao a thousand times, saying that I must not tell you about this, for fear that you will fight for me and go to Fang Chao and them to theorize, then the matter will be even bigger." ”
Jiang Xue scoffed and said, "Bullshit! I don't bother to pay attention to you, even if Fang Chao really starts with you, I have to wait for him to beat you up, and then I will go up to help. ”
"Help?" I grinned at Jiang Xue and deliberately teasedly asked, "Who are you helping?" ”
Jiang Xue looked at me with wide eyes, stunned for a moment, and then scolded me: "Help Fang Chao beat your grandson, okay!?" ”
"Hehe, don't be angry, I just asked on purpose, just kidding you, let's go, let's go, it's time to go in, otherwise Lao Wei and Lao Gao will think that something has happened to us again."
Entering the tavern, we returned to the original booth position, and the position where I was sitting happened to be where Lin Shile was sitting before.
Lao Wei saw that we were all back, but he didn't mention the unpleasant things in front of him, smiled and arranged for someone to bring us drinks, and from time to time he took the time to come over and have a few drinks with us.
However, I suddenly felt that Yu Wang, who had nothing to drink, occasionally took a puff of cigarette, held the wine glass in front of me, and watched the people in the tavern hall under the bright lights and green through the glass of wine.
In the confusion, I couldn't help but wonder: what is the meaning of life? Is it a glass of wine, a cigarette, and a piece of rock music after a busy day at work to bring people the pleasure of releasing tiredness?
It seems that different things happen every day, but in fact, we are all two points and one line, or three points and one line, repeating our daily lives, like in film and television dramas, where people write scripts in advance, and live the same "plot"!
"Hey." Gao Hangfeng, who was sitting next to me, elbowed me, pointed to my cup and said, "Old Xue, why are you stunned, what about raising fish here?" You can keep sharks in this cup, right?! ”
I smiled bitterly at Gao Hangfeng and said softly: "I don't feel like I'm in any state, I don't want to drink so much, I want to go back a little." ”
When Gao Hangfeng heard me say this, he leaned over to me, handed me a cigarette, and asked, "What's the matter?" Why are you out of state, are you still thinking about the things ahead? ”
"Not really, I just don't think it's worth it." I took the cigarette handed over by Gao Hangfeng, lit it casually, then stood up and continued: "You guys drink first, I'll go to the bathroom." ”
Jiang Xue glanced at me who stood up, and complained to Gao Hangfeng: "Old Gao, don't care about him, he is so nervous, you see that when he was stunned with a wine glass just now, you know that he must have committed another literary nerve." ”
I went to the bathroom to put water, and when I walked out of the bathroom, I remembered that I hadn't replied to her on WeChat that Qin Weilan had sent me before.
So, I put the cigarette in my mouth, wiped the water on my hands on my clothes, picked up my mobile phone and typed in reply to the voice message Qin Weilan sent me before.
"Wei Lan, thank you so much for your help this time, when you come back, I have to let Lao Wei treat you to a good meal."
Qin Weilan seemed to have been holding her phone and waiting for me to reply to the message, and immediately replied to my message.
"Yes, then I'm going to have to take care of old Wei Wei by then."
"By the way, Jingfan, did you go to the cute pet club today? Did you get the contract? ”
I took down the voice and said to Qin Weilan: "Not yet, I've been busy with the opening of the new tavern for the past two days, I'll see the time tomorrow, and I'll take the time to go over when the time comes." ”
This time, Qin Weilan didn't reply to my message right away, probably because she was busy with other things, after all, with her status, maybe she would have something to do all of a sudden.
I put away my phone and walked over to the booth.
Just as I approached the location near the booth, I found that there was an extra person in the booth, the man, wearing a set of white casual sportswear, but he had his back to me, and this back looked a little familiar.
I walked to the booth, Gao Hangfeng, Jiang Xue and others looked up at me one after another, and it was at this time that I finally saw who the "back" was.
The person who came to sit down here in our booth was the owner of this large commercial plaza, Kevin!
Kevin also looked up at me and said with a smile.
"Mr. Xue, we meet again."
I sat down and smiled at him, handed a cigarette over, and corrected: "Mr. Kai, don't make fun of me, I'm just an ordinary little clerk, not a 'president', don't call me that in the future." ”
Kevin smiled disapprovingly, raised the wine glass on the table, and said to me, "It's okay, everyone is the boss, don't you all say that when you meet and say hello?" ”
At this time, Jiang Xue stood up with her mobile phone, gave a smile to a few of us, made a "answer the phone" gesture to us, and said, "You guys talk first, I'll go out to answer the phone." ”
After Kevin and I had a glass of wine, he hesitated for a moment, looked at me and asked, "Jing Fan, Miss Qin, didn't she come to the opening event of the tavern today?" ”
As soon as I heard Kevin ask me this, I knew that this kid was ostensibly here to cheer for the opening of Lao Wei's Tavern, but in fact, he still had Qin Weilan's contact information in mind, otherwise he wouldn't have asked me about Qin Weilan every time he saw me.
"No, she had something to do, so she didn't come." I took a puff of cigarette, paused for a moment, and couldn't help but ask: "No, you are such a domineering Mr. Kai, is it difficult to find someone's contact information?" Why do you ask me about Qin Weilan every time we meet? ”
I looked directly at Kevin, expecting and curious how he would answer my point-to-the-point question.
