farewell to sunset

Shen Youning planned to have a face-to-face meeting with Tang Nuo. He said he would go there at two or three o'clock, but he didn't show up, so he should explain the reason to the other party.First impressions are very important, Shen Youning has always been sincere and does not want to appear dishonest.

He walked under the signboard and carefully studied the line in foreign language.

Coucherdesoleil, the name of the dessert shop.

Looking through the glass door, the store is not very big. There are four or five wooden tables by the window, which can accommodate about ten people.There is a bookshelf next to the seat, which is half the height of the wall. The publications on the lower floor and the books on the upper floor, half of them are original books in foreign languages.

The lighting in the store is also like the signboard at the door, the color is the same as the afterglow of the setting sun, warm and calm.

Shen Youning didn't see Tang Nuo outside the door, so he opened the door and walked into the store. There were five or six other seats by the bar, and one of them was occupied.

It was a figure from the back, probably a guest.When Shen Youning heard the voice, she didn't go in in a hurry, and stood still at the door, not to disturb.

"Sir... we will indeed close the door by the time..."

It was Tang Nuo's voice.

"Little cutie, is this your first time opening a shop? The customer is God, haven't you heard of it?" The other party's tone was frivolous and glib, and Shen Youning sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Our business hours are only until 6 o'clock, how about...I'll pack the food you haven't finished eating for you, and give you a dessert, do you think it's okay?"

"No." The man said, "Dessert shop, coffee shop, the money is just for shopping? Don't you want to enjoy the service?"

"Then do you need any help?"

"Yes, you need to sit there and chat with me. It's not dark yet. When it's dark, brother, I'll take you back."

Shen Youning couldn't take it anymore, walked straight to the bar and called, "Tang Nuo."

Tang Nuo looked over, his expression relaxed for a moment, and he also greeted Shen Youning.

The people outside the bar turned their heads when they heard the sound, Shen Youning took a look, and let out a sneer in his nostrils.

No wonder the tone is familiar, it turned out to be an old acquaintance.

Li Hui, the eldest nephew of the deputy director of RA China in the Administration Department, has been working in a position for five years because he was too unwilling to make progress after entering the company through nepotism.He is about the same age as Shen Youning, and his position is three levels lower than others.

It doesn't matter if he's just delicious and lazy, but this person is also idle, vulgar and wretched.Usually in the company, I like to tease pretty girls and boys, but most of them are verbal teasing. Most people don't want to cause trouble, so they turn a blind eye.

It's not that he didn't do anything, once, Shen Youning saw with his own eyes that Li Hui touched the waist of a boy who was an intern, but he was beaten up by the other party with a bruised nose and a swollen face. In the end, Shen Youning persuaded him to fight.

Stupid, nasty, and cowardly, Shen Youning despises this kind of person the most.

"Manager Shen?" Li Hui was used to being shameless, and he did not change his face when he greeted Shen Youning.

"Why are you here?" Shen Youning frowned his handsome eyebrows, and said lightly: "The P6 meeting has just ended, and all departments should have new arrangements in the evening. I think Manager Shang is in a hurry to return to the office. Why don't you go back and have a look? ?”

"Why is Manager Shen here?" Li Hui didn't dare to contradict Shen Youning, but he had to say a few words, "The engineering department has been free recently? Is Manager Shen still free to buy coffee himself?"

"It's all a big list, how can you be free?" Shen Youning said calmly and indifferently, "After a busy day, come down to breathe and see friends."

"Oh? The two co-authors know each other?" Li Hui probably knew when he heard Shen Youning calling, but he still pretended to be surprised, which was very hypocritical.

"It's my friend." Shen Youning took a step forward and stood beside Tang Nuo. Because he was half a head taller than Li Hui, he already overwhelmed him in aura.

"Then they are all acquaintances." Li Hui laughed twice, and changed his address to Shen Youning, "Brother, you see that we are quite familiar, why don't we...be friends together?"

He glanced at Tang Nuo from the bottom up, like a poisonous snake spitting out a message.

Shen Youning immediately stood in front of Tang Nuo, and also blocked Li Hui's view.

"Li Hui, since you also said that we know each other quite well, the store is closing now, why don't you please come back first for my sake? Don't make things difficult for my friend."

The clever use of the word "embarrassing" prevented Li Hui from saying that he was just joking, and Shen Youning made it very obvious that what you did just now was not a joke.

Li Hui's smile froze, he didn't expect Shen Youning to be so straightforward.

"Manager Shen is serious. I'm just going to hang around. How can I make things difficult for your friend?"

"Then please go back first." Shen Youning said: "There are still two months until the end of the year, and the grade evaluation materials should be prepared."

Li Hui choked for a moment and didn't make a sound.

"By the way, remember to build a good relationship with other managers. After all, it is a one-vote veto system. It is useless for you to know me well."

There are hidden thorns everywhere in the words, while mocking Li Hui's low status, while using his own rank to suppress him.In other words, Shen Youning has always been a modest gentleman, otherwise it would be a shame to have someone else say this.

In the end, Li Hui's face was livid, knowing that he couldn't beat Shen Youning, and he was wronged first, even if he couldn't swallow this breath, he could only endure it.It was useless to stay here, Li Hui found himself a step down, and left with a dry smile.

Shen Youning didn't move in a hurry, and waited for Li Hui to push the door out and walk away, out of sight, before moving away from Tang Nuo and retreating to a suitable distance.

"Thank you." Tang Nuo didn't come back to his senses for a moment. He said thank you, but his eyes were full of worries, and he looked at the door from time to time.

"No thanks." Shen Youning and Tang Nuo looked out the door together, and said, "Our company's scoundrels always like to harass others."

"You don't have to worry too much, this person is quite cowardly, and he doesn't dare to do anything serious." Shen Youning comforted the other party, and suddenly asked: "Is there any paper and pen?"

"……what?"

"Paper and pen." Shen Youning repeated.

"Yes, yes." Tang Nuo squatted halfway behind the bar, bent down to find a pen and paper. He was slender and was tightly blocked by the bar. From Shen Youning's perspective, only dark brown hair could be seen.

"I said I'd come over in the afternoon, but I've been in a meeting and it just ended." Shen Youning changed the subject naturally, and said, "But my colleague came here for me, and everyone said your coffee is delicious."

Tang Nuo poked his head out from behind the bar, handed the pen and paper to Shen Youning, his mood changed, and he said with some joy, "Really...Which guest is it?"

"A tall, strong boy," Shen Youning gestured, "I bought two cups of latte and one cake, and I heard you even gave him ice cream."

Tang Nuo tilted his head and thought, and raised his eyes when he thought about it.

"I have the impression that that person is your colleague." He said in a very soft voice, "It just opened recently, and all products are bought three get one free."

"Hmm." Shen Youning lowered his head and wrote two lines, pretending to ask casually: "Is there any leaflets? Many people in our department are interested in your place. No coffee shop."

"Yes." Tang Nuo's eyes lit up, and he unconsciously raised his voice, "...I'll get it for you."

He disappeared behind the bar again, Shen Youning stared at the top of the other's furry head, and bent the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.

Shen Youning is good at observing words and expressions, and has been in contact with many people. Among all kinds of people, Tang Nuo can be regarded as very introverted.Shen Youning noticed that he didn't like to socialize and talked less with strangers, but with this kind of character, how could he be in the service industry?

Maybe the dessert is delicious?The boss doesn't want to hire more people, let him do the work of two people alone?

Shen Youning thought he was interesting, he obviously didn't want to talk, but he had to bite the bullet to cater to the guests, so he didn't speak loudly, maybe it was an expression of avoidance.

"How many do you want? Five...is that enough?"

Well, there is also obvious restraint and overly polite, it can be seen that he is not good at getting along with others.

"Give me five first, and I'll ask you for it if it's not enough." Shen Youning took the flyer and suppressed the doubts in his heart.

He was too interested in Tang Nuo, but the two had just met for a day, so there were many things they couldn't ask, as it would be ungentlemanly, unsteady, and inappropriate.

"This is for you." Shen Youning passed a note, which he just wrote.

"The first line is the landline of the company doorman, and the second line is my phone."

"I will say hello to the doorman. If you encounter any trouble, you can find the doorman or me."
