I prepared the food and found a relatively clean place to sit down. At this moment, Liu Li also came to my side and sat opposite me. She smiled at me and said,"You don't mind me being by your side, do you?”
I shook my head and said,"Why would I do that? I was afraid that you would dislike me."”
We smiled at each other. I wasn't angry at all. I hadn't eaten for a day, so I picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating. Liu Li, who was opposite me, didn't touch the food on the table at all. She kept looking at me with a smile.
Seeing that Liu Li was staring at me instead of eating, I felt a little embarrassed. I asked Liu Li,"What's wrong, Miss Liu? Why aren't you eating? It's weird that you're looking at me like this.”
When Liu Li heard me, she knew that she had lost her composure. She apologized to me,"I'm sorry. I came here today to tell you that I want to go out and have dinner with you tonight. Fortunately, you took care of me yesterday. Otherwise, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly.”
" This???"
I wanted to reject her, but she put on a pitiful look. I couldn't bear to reject her, so I had no choice but to agree.
"Alright then. I'll be waiting for you at the western restaurant at nine o'clock tonight. You must come.”After saying that, Liu Li left without eating.
"Miss Liu, aren't you eating?"
Liu Li waved at me and said,"I'm not hungry. You can eat slowly. I still have some things to do.”
Watching Liu Li leave, I shook my head and continued to eat. At this time, the man on the other side of me came to my side. He was 40 years old and 1.75 meters tall. He had shifty eyes. In the company, he was the one who liked to pry into other people's secrets. Everyone in the company called him Little Horn, but I called him Brother Wang.
I saw him come to my side and smile at me."I say, Brother Gao, how do you get along so well with Secretary Liu? You don't know that she's been in the company for so long, and it's her first time here. In the past, she always ate out, but this time, she actually made an exception for you.”
When I heard that he was here to ask about me and Liu Li, although I had only been here for a few days, I knew about this person's bad habits while the other employees were resting. If I let him know about what happened between Liu Li and me these two days, I would not let him spread it. Perhaps he would add fuel to the fire. Things that were not there would become real under his spread, but I had to tell him. That would make him think that I was deliberately avoiding it. That would give him an excuse to make a fuss.
"Brother Wang, what are you talking about?" Actually, there's nothing between Secretary Liu and me. I only knew him when we were young. She only recognized me on the first day I came to the company. She said that she invited me to dinner this time because I helped her in the past.”
Brother Wang heard that what I said made sense. He smiled apologetically and said,"I'm sorry, Brother Gao. I was just curious, so I asked.”
Seeing that I had managed to fool him, I quickly ate a few mouthfuls of food and said to him,"Brother Wang, it's fine. I don't blame you. I still have something to do, so I'll leave first.”
I put down my bowl and chopsticks and quickly walked out of the canteen. If he reacted, he would probably force me to ask questions, so I had to slip away first.
At this time, the little trumpet suddenly understood and said,""That's not right. I've never heard of Secretary Liu having a friend like you. You even lied to me.”After saying that, the small speaker smiled sinisterly.
Time passed quickly and the sky gradually darkened. I returned home and casually packed up. Then, I left the room and walked to the western restaurant that Liu Li told me.
Because of the traffic jam today, I didn't reach the western restaurant until 9:30. I quickly entered the restaurant and a waiter came to me and said, Hello, is this Mr. Gao Tian?"
"Yes, I am." I nodded.”
The waiter continued," Alright, sir. Please follow me. Miss Liu has been waiting for you for a long time."”
So I followed the waiter to an elegant room. I saw Liu Li fiddling with the coffee in her cup with a spoon.
I came in front of her and smiled."I'm really sorry. There was a traffic jam today, so I came a little late. I hope you don't mind.”
Liu Li was dressed especially beautifully today. Her fair skin and charming eyeliner would charm any man with her appearance.
Liu Li looked at my anxious expression and smiled." It's okay. I just arrived here a while ago. Let's talk while eating."
I nodded. Perhaps it was because this was my first time coming to such a big western restaurant and my first time eating western food, so I was a little nervous. Liu Li also knew that I was a young man from the countryside and had never seen such a big western restaurant. She comforted me," Alright, don't be nervous. There's nothing here. It's just you and me. Besides, you look really cute when you're nervous, hehehe," Liu Li said with a smile.
"Waiter, the dishes can be served now." Liu Li said,
"Got it."
Not long after, the waiter brought two steaks and a bottle of red wine. Because it was my first time eating western food, I didn't know how to use a knife and fork. I wanted to learn from Liu Li, but I didn't know how to do it. Liu Li saw me like this and said apologetically,"I'm sorry, I forgot to help you. You don't know how to use a knife and fork.”
After a while, the waiter brought a pair of chopsticks and handed them to me. I smiled awkwardly and said,"Sorry, this is my first time."
Liu Li replied with a smile," It's okay. You don't have to feel inferior. In fact, everyone has a first time. You'll get used to it later. Come on, let's talk while eating."”
I picked up a piece of steak in front of me and put it in my mouth to chew. I felt that the steak was not even 70% cooked, so I swallowed the steak in my mouth. Liu Li saw the expression on my face and hurriedly apologized to me."I'm sorry. Look at me. I forgot that this is your first time eating steak. You're not used to this steak yet. I'll ask the waiter to bring you a well-done steak.”
After a while, the waiter removed the steak from before and served a plate of fully cooked beef. I put it in my mouth and chewed it again. This time, it tasted really good.
I smiled awkwardly at Liu Li and said,"It's really delicious."
Liu Li smiled charmingly and said," If it's delicious, eat more. If it's not enough, I'll make you another plate."”
I put down my chopsticks and asked Liu Li,"Miss Liu didn't come to look for me just to thank me. This place is obviously very expensive and romantic. There must be something else, right?”
When Liu Li heard my resolute question, she could only honestly say,"I didn't expect you to see through me. I really wanted you to do me a favor this time. I like someone, and we meet every day and will work together in the future. I don't know how to face it.”
Just as Liu Li and I were talking, two more people entered the restaurant. They were a couple. The woman said,"Wang Xiao, are you crazy? Why did you bring me here? This place is very expensive.”
The couple who came was the big-mouthed Wang Xiao and his girlfriend from our company. Wang Xiao said,"The main reason I came here this time is because we've wanted to love each other for a year. I hope to be like this with you every day in the future. To celebrate our first anniversary of loving each other, I've spent all my money to come here and spend this beautiful day with you.”
His girlfriend was so happy that she threw herself into his arms. At this moment, Wang Xiao called over a waiter and said to the waiter,"Take us to the private room that we have already booked today. I want to spend this beautiful night with my lover.”
At this moment, the waiter said to Wang Xiao,"I'm sorry, sir. Due to some problems with the computer system today, the room you booked has already been booked by another lady."”
"What?" Wang Xiao said angrily.
"What's wrong with you guys? Don't you know that I was the one who left this private room first? Why did you have to give it to someone else? How did you do it? Call your manager over and tell me.”
At this moment, a manager walked over from afar and came in front of Wang Xiao. He apologized to Wang Xiao repeatedly,"I'm sorry, I'm sorry sir, there's a problem with our system today. How about this, we'll give you another room. It's the same as the one you saw before, just that you can't see the beautiful jasmine flowers.”
Just as Wang Xiao was about to knock on the manager's door again, he saw that the door to Liu Li's private room had been opened by the service staff. He happened to see me with Liu Li.
When Wang Xiao saw us, it was as if he had a call. He kept saying,"Hehe, it seems that I didn't come here in vain. I didn't expect to find something unexpected.”
The manager did not know what Wang Xiao was talking about, so he said to Wang Xiao,"Sir, what's wrong? How about I change your door?”
Wang Xiao pointed to the other room we were in and said,"Are you talking about that one?"
The manager looked over and saw Wang Xiao pointing at the room next to ours. The manager smiled and said," If you like this room, sir."
At this point, the manager deliberately dragged his voice.
