Chapter 128 Dinner Party

When the two arrived at the restaurant, the same people had already sat down around the table.

The Three Lucky Treasures are still the same as before.

Wang Haomai waved and shouted, "Boss, let's order!"

She turned around and carefully rinsed Lin Huai's tableware with boiling water.

"Father, I hope you still remember me, your son!"

Yang Zijiang and Wang Bahang quickly wiped the table and moved chairs for him, providing even better service than before.

"Father, don't forget about the two of us!"

A group of students burst into laughter.

"Lackey!"

"Look at you, so pathetic!"

Wang Haomai chuckled: "What do you know? This is called social etiquette. I can bend and stretch. Besides, I'd be willing to be Master Huai's lackey for ten lifetimes, wouldn't you say!"

Xiao You was still very happy to see them, and those memories from high school flashed back into her mind.

From the very beginning of playing ball games to the sports meet, I had a lot of fun.

"Boss~ if you don't come soon, I'll call the boss's wife out to bite you!" Yang Zijiang shouted.

"Hey, I'm here, you little rascals, please let me go!" the boss shouted, rushing over with paper and pen.

He laughed and said, "You guys, after all these years, you still can't give me a moment's peace."

Wang Haomai said, "Being afraid of your wife is a good thing. You're lucky if you love your wife, and you're successful if you're afraid of your wife!"

She was speaking to the boss, but her eyes were on Lin Huai.

Xiao You couldn't help but laugh and said, "With your silver tongue, it would be a waste not to invite you to work as a salesperson in our company."

Wang Haomai took the menu and joked, "Boss, did you hear that? This company sent me Odder!"

The boss wiped his hands on his apron, grabbed a few boxes of tissues and threw them on the table. "You took their politeness seriously? With a brain like yours, you think you can work as a salesperson? What are you going to sell? Go read some books and use your brain."

"Dad! What are you doing! Can't I give my old classmate a little face?!" Wang Haomai stood up angrily.

Mr. Wang smiled helplessly, "Lin Huai and Xiao You, right? I always hear him mention you. We were really grateful for your help back in high school."

Xiao You quickly waved her hand, "Not at all, he takes better care of me. I really meant to ask him to help out at our company, I wasn't joking."

Mr. Wang laughed and said, "Oh, him? He's good for ruining my restaurant, but he shouldn't ruin your company."

Mr. Wang wanted to chat a bit more, but the proprietress rushed out from the kitchen, yelling, "Are you running a restaurant or a tea party? Come back to work!"

"Once you've ordered, have the little rascal bring it in. I'll cook for you first. I've saved a whole roasted lamb for you, so take your time ordering!"

The landlady's voice was incredibly penetrating, and now Lin Huai could understand why Wang Haomai always shouted the loudest slogans—it was hereditary.

After chatting for a while, Xiao You took out her lipstick and applied it, as was her habit.

Yangtze River teased, "Look how much more particular our little Yuzi has become since she started her own company!"

"Is it more important when you start a company or when you're dating?" Wang Bahang asked.

Lin Huai gave them a look, and they both shut up.

A little while later, the roasted lamb was served first.

A huge baking pan was sizzling with oil, and the lamb was curled up with a golden-brown edge. The aroma of the meat made everyone exclaim with delight.

One female student, showing no less courage than any man, pried open a bottle of beer and downed it in one gulp.

"I used to have a crush on the class monitor. I wrote several love letters to Lin Huai and gave them to Xiao You... Xiao You, tell me the truth, did you secretly throw them all away!"

Stimulate.

The most exciting part, bringing up old grievances, is here.

Lin Huai looked at Xiao You with a wicked grin.

Xiao You opened a bottle of wine and downed it in one gulp. "Sorry, I'm throwing it all away!"

"It's my turn! It's my turn!" A pretty girl wearing glasses stood up. "I made a chocolate for Xiao You for Valentine's Day and put it on his desk, along with an apple for Christmas and cookies for New Year's Day. Xiao You, why aren't you responding to me?!"

Xiao You said in confusion, "I haven't received it!"

Wang Bahang seemed to remember something, "Girl, you did all of that!"

Lin Huai raised his glass. "Sorry, I gave them all to the three of them. Xiao You doesn't like sweets."

"You two have been blocking each other's romantic prospects since high school! That's impressive!"

"Aren't you going to explain? Didn't you two start out fighting in the dorm? How come you're suddenly such good friends and even started a company together?"

Lin Huai cut a piece of lamb leg and put it in Xiao You's mouth. The pure lamb flavor filled her mouth, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

Xiao You was very satisfied as she ate the meat with gusto.

They only noticed that everyone was waiting for a response from the two of them when their mouths were full of meat.

He forced himself to swallow a large mouthful, saying, "We've never fought before."

"ah??"

"ha??"

Lin Huai opened a can of Coca-Cola and replaced the beer next to Xiao You's hand.

After a while, everyone realized that something was wrong with the two.

"Damn, you two aren't together, are you!?"

"Every time I see you two all flushed and with swollen lips in the corner, are you... about to kiss?!"

"Pfft..." Xiao You took a big gulp of her soda, bubbles rising from the corner of her mouth.

"All those subtle, scheming thoughts of yours are just flirting! Aaaaaaah, my high school crush was a complete waste!"

A group of people silently began to drink.

Liu Cuicui arrived shortly afterward.

Xiao You, who was eating meat, saw Liu Cuicui and offered her the seat next to her.

Liu Cuicui squeezed herself between Lin Huai and Xiao You.

Wang Haomai, with his legs crossed, ate meat and said, "Cui'er, don't you feel sour?"

Liu Cuicui rolled her eyes at him; even after graduating for so many years, he still hadn't done anything right.

"Why would I be so sour? I'm a middle-aged woman with a family and children, why would I be so sour about them?"

"Only you guys can't see it. I noticed their little secret a long time ago. Lin Huai's eyes are practically glued to Xiao You, he's always hanging around her."

"You don't care about puppy love at all, Cui Cui! I should have been brave enough to pursue the school beauty. I was so timid back then, afraid of getting caught by you," Wang Haomai said with a laugh.

"You definitely can't do it. They're first or second in the grade, while you're last in your class, occasionally competing with Yangtze River for second to last. If you're chasing after the school beauty in their class, won't their homeroom teacher come to me and yell at me, yelling at me for ruining the flowers of our motherland!"

Lin Huai quickly filled Liu Cuicui's cup; having a magnanimous homeroom teacher is truly a blessing.

Yangtze River said, "Do you guys still remember Chen Qiang, that fat pig?"

"He's in a terrible situation now. I saw him at the construction site of our project a couple of days ago, carrying bricks."

"Pah, serves you right!"

After slowly finishing his food, Lin Huai wiped his hands and got up to go to the bathroom.

Xiao You looked up at his back and had an ominous feeling.

It's like it's about to disappear again.

He stood up and said, "I'm going to the restroom too."

His strides were large and his pace was fast; I caught up in just a few steps.

He called out to Lin Huai, "I have this feeling that you're going to the restroom and never coming back."

Lin Huai paused.

He slowly turned around and looked down at Xiao You.
