Chapter 25 Hot Pot

A while ago, it was a trend of job-hopping and the project was not going well. The combination of many problems made Raymond exhausted physically and mentally. Now that the Tenglong project has been successfully resolved, and a newcomer has arrived in the Asia-Pacific group, Raymond decided to treat Xu Weichen to dinner arrival.

The location was still chosen at the Jiugongge hot pot restaurant last time, but compared to the grandeur of the last time, this time barely sat a table.Everyone sat down around the table, thinking about the grand occasion of the last dinner, and looking at the desolation in front of them, it was only more than a month, and their hearts were more or less heavy.

Yang Qili ordered the menu with ease, looked up at the silent people at the table, and laughed out loud, "Why are you so serious? Don't worry, I didn't order pig brains this time!"

Everyone smiled as they recalled the pot of white pig brains last time, and the dull atmosphere was slightly broken.Lei Meng knew that Yang Qili was doing this to enliven the atmosphere, so she picked up the chopsticks and knocked on the bowl, making a "clang" sound to attract attention.

Lei Meng coughed twice, pretending to be an instructor in an anti-Japanese drama, "Okay, okay, the darkness has passed, and the light has arrived! The serfs stood up and were liberated, and the sky in the liberated areas is sunny! Comrades, Don't be immersed in the sadness of losing your comrades, there are still countless orders waiting for us tomorrow! Believe that what we are doing is saving the world, we are justice!"

He raised Wang Laoji in front of him, "Come on, let's make a noise!"

With the end of his words, the waiter served all kinds of dishes in a flowing manner, and the table was full.

Everyone scrambled to throw meat and vegetable dishes into the pot, and the hot pot was bubbling happily. The heat was thick and the food was tumbling. Under the stimulation of taste, the atmosphere finally became a little warmer.

While waiting for the food to be cooked, the neighbors started chatting.Lei Meng asked Xu Yao about the follow-up development of the Tenglong project, and Yang Qili asked Xu Weichen with great interest, "Why did you come to Zia in the first place?"

Xu Weichen put down his chopsticks, sat down obediently, and answered her question honestly: "Because Zia's salary is high."

"Just because of this?" Yang Qili thought he would say that big companies have more opportunities to train people and develop. She looked at Xu Weichen, who looked like a street vendor, "Are you short of money?"

"Yeah." Xu Weichen was a little embarrassed by her, and his ears turned red quietly.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to continue this topic, there might be something unspeakable, Yang Qili didn't pursue the question anymore, and decided to change the topic she always wanted to know: "Did you know To...Mr. Xu before?"

Xu Weichen secretly glanced at Xu Yao awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.

Xu Yao, who was talking to Lei Meng about the collection of the Tenglong project, turned around at the right time, and said unceremoniously to Yang Qili, "Killy, you know what I hate the most."

Yang Qili shut her mouth resentfully.

It just so happened that the food was boiling at this time, and everyone rushed forward, and no one paid attention to the weird conversation here in the noisy atmosphere.

Xu Weichen was sitting between Xu Yao and Yang Qili. Lei Meng originally thought that since Xu Yao was willing to rescue him, he would take care of him in every possible way. Since Yang Qili was willing to talk to him, she would also have a good chat with him As a result, Xu Yao ate with a cold face from the beginning to the end, Yang Qili turned her head to chat with the people next to her, completely snubbing Xu Weichen.

Lei Meng is helpless, he is also a member of his own group, so he can't make people feel isolated when they first come, right?In line with the idea of ​​uniting colleagues and sustainable development, Lei Meng had to chat with Xu Weichen through Xu Yao, and had to always pay attention to whether he touched the reverse scale of the big Buddha in the middle, so he had to pick some insignificant things.

"You graduated from University A?"

"Ah."

"Oh, our President Xu also graduated from University A!"

Xu Yao swept over coldly, and Lei Meng trembled.

"Your graduate student is a B major?"

"Ah."

"Oh, Killy also graduated from University B! It's just a bachelor's degree."

Yang Qili swept over coldly, and Lei Meng trembled again.

You guys!Looks like he's concentrating on eating!Why are you paying so much attention here!It also makes people chat happily!

Xu Weichen looked puzzled at him before changing the subject, "What's wrong with you?"

"No...it's nothing, let's have a good meal."

The two of them stopped talking and ate their food in silence.

Raymond ate the meal like chewing wax, and finally waited until the meal was over to break up, and everyone on good terms agreed to leave.Normally Xu Yao would send Yang Qili off, Lei Meng watched Xu Yao and Yang Qili leave, grabbed the suit jacket on the chair and called Xu Weichen, "Wait, I'll drive you back."

Lei Meng's small plan was well thought out. Sending Xu Weichen home would allow him to feel the warmth of the organization, and he could get to know new colleagues well along the way.Across Xu Yao, even if Lei Meng is eloquent, he still can't figure out why, this feeling is really too depressing.

Xu Weichen declined politely, but Lei Meng persisted, Xu Weichen couldn't say no to him, so he just nodded and followed him.

The two went downstairs, and before they reached the parking lot, Raymond's little plan was shattered.

Xu Yao leaned against the pillar of the parking lot, the night was just right and the lights were just right.

Lei Meng has seen this scene from Lei Meng's iPad countless times. The male lead and the female lead walked out talking and laughing.Mr. Xu was born with an aura of protagonist, which blinded Lei Meng's titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

Xu Yao's gaze didn't stay on Xu Weichen for a long time before turning to Lei Meng, and told him in a business-like tone, "Go to the front desk to see off Killy, and I'll see off the new colleague."

What do you do in the face of authoritarianism?Lei Meng imagined the picture of himself standing up and resolutely rejecting Xu Yao—it was so beautiful that he didn't dare to look at it, and then went to the front desk to find Yang Qili in desperation.

Yang Qili stood in front of Xiaokoukou's car, her eyes full of disgust.Raymond opened the passenger door for her like a dog, and respectfully invited Her Lady Queen to get in the car.

"You are also a big guy who is 1.8 meters fast, so you just drive this? Don't you think it's too crowded?"

"Isn't this less than 1.8 meters, and it can still fit."

"I have arrived."

"That's because your high heels are too high!"

Yang Qili snorted, and Lei Meng hurriedly changed the subject before she turned on the mocking mode, "Where is your home? I'll take you there."

"No, just take me to the company."

"You still have to go back to work overtime?" Lei Meng was a little surprised. It took a long time to eat hot pot, and it was almost nine o'clock.

"Well. Tommie got Tenglong out of the way and agreed to sign a new contract without liquidated damages. I have to draft the contract today and show it to Tommie tomorrow morning." Yang Qili took out the mirror from her handbag, Start to make up for the makeup that was spent eating hot pot,

Lei Meng felt a little guilty. It was his own order, but he always had to trouble others, "Let me get that new contract..."

"Forget it, you're new here, and you don't understand the twists and turns. Tenglong's operations director is cunning, so don't worry that you'll be tricked again."

"I'm sorry..." If I hadn't been eager for quick success and made a decision when Xu Yao came back, there wouldn't be so many things.

"I don't blame you. You will always encounter these things in sales. The most annoying thing is the project department. I don't know when Song Sifan will come back. The progress of the Tenglong project can no longer be delayed." Yang Qili said bitterly, " Incompetent bungler!"

Lei Meng thought of the chance meeting in the hospital. Although he and Song Sifan were just ordinary colleagues, but being stared at by the little star's suspicious eyes, somehow he felt a kind of embarrassment of "catching the rape in bed".Song Sifan didn't open his mouth to explain, what he said would only get darker and darker, the food scattered all over the floor, thinking about it with his toes, he knew that there must have been a quarrel just because of the lunch box, and then he came to pay for the lunch box again of……

etc!The originally designed scene is obviously not like this!It should be that he picked up the money and returned Song Sifan's lunch money, and then waved his hands and left gracefully. How did it become a scene where he ran into a couple quarreling and the mistress came to the door?

In this atmosphere, it was really embarrassing, and no matter what the little star thought of him and Song Sifan, Lei Meng fled shamefully.

I don't know how Xiao Xingxing and Song Sifan resolved it later... Lei Meng's thoughts were wandering, and he completely ignored Yang Qili.

"Did you hear that!" Yang Qili yelled out of control.

"Ah? What did you say?"

"I told you to pay more attention to that newcomer!"

"You mean Xu Weichen?"

"Well, I think he and Tommie should know each other, but for some reason, they both pretended to be strangers." Yang Qili frowned, remembering the scene in the tea room, "It's so strange..."

"I know you? Didn't Tommie enter Zia at the same time as you after graduating from university? Didn't you hear him mention this person? Could it be a college classmate? Impossible, they are so different in age, they can't be in the same class. "

"I can't tell..." Yang Qili suppressed her ominous premonition, "I just feel that this person treats Tommie very differently. You should pay more attention to it in the future."

"Okay, no problem." Yang Qili had already written the contract for herself, how could she not help with such a small favor, "By the way, when you were eating just now, you asked him if he knew Tommie, and Tommie said you knew him What do you hate the most, what does our director hate the most?" Lei Meng thought about Xu Yao's dislike for Song Sifan before, "Are you related?"

"No." Yang Qili looked down at the feasting lights passing by outside the window, feeling sad in her heart, "He hates others prying into his privacy the most."
