Chapter 548 Arrogance
But when she heard that we were going to the Black Fish Restaurant for dinner, Ningjing thought about it and decided to go.
Black Fish Restaurant is a restaurant located near the north gate of Kingwood University. Ning Jing and her friends went there to eat when it first opened.
There are very few people doing business nowadays, and few people can open a restaurant without some skills.
The taste is pretty good, and the best thing is the service. The waiters are all dressed in purple clothes and wear white hats to hide their hair and everything inside the hats, making them look very capable.
Boss Ning came to ask Ning Jing to go home for dinner. He also heard that they were going to the Black Fish Restaurant for dinner, so naturally he called Xiaocao first to tell her that they would not be home for lunch today.
Then Boss Ning followed Ning Jing to the black fish restaurant.
When Ning Jing and the others arrived at the Black Fish Restaurant and came to box 208, the people from Everbright Publishing House had not arrived yet.
Professor Wen and the others looked very unhappy, but Ning Jing and Boss Ning were not affected at all and continued to order dishes.
The Black Fish Restaurant’s signature dish is black fish, but they also offer many other dishes.
Ningjing felt that her colleagues in the office had been feeling a little irritated recently, so she ordered some cold-boiled water spinach to help relieve the heat, as well as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried cucumbers, stir-fried bitter melon, and a beef brisket soup.
Of course, black carp is indispensable. When Ning Jing chose the black carp, she did not look for the biggest one, but chose the two most clever ones. It took her three attempts to catch the two fish that Ning Jing chose.
While you are waiting, cold dishes, cold water spinach and cold cucumber will definitely be served.
The dishes have arrived, but the people from Everbright Publishing House have not arrived yet.
Professor Wen and the others all looked unhappy.
However, Ning Jing was not affected and said, "Professor Wen, you should try the water spinach here, it's very good."
In order to save Ning Jing's face, Professor Wen moved his chopsticks and put the food in his mouth, but he could not taste anything.
Finally, the door of the box was pushed open, and it was my old acquaintance Zhang Shili.
The name sounds nice and he sounds like a very polite person, but in fact he is not polite at all and just walked in without knocking.
After coming in, he didn't feel guilty about being late.
Instead, he explained, “There was a traffic jam on the road.”
Cars were not yet popular, so there was no traffic jam. They just made up an excuse to be so perfunctory.
Professor Wen didn't care about anything, but discussed the conditions of publication with Zhang Shili.
When Zhang Shili heard Professor Wen say that he could give up the position of deputy editor-in-chief, a sneer flashed in Zhang Shili's eyes. This is a university professor. Wouldn't it be better if he had agreed at the beginning? For such a long time, did they really think that he, Zhang Shili, had nothing to do?
Zhang Shili shook his head and said, "Professor Wen, I initially offered to sign my name as deputy editor-in-chief out of respect for you, but it's been so long, and for us businessmen, time is money, so..."
Zhang Shili didn't finish his words, but everyone could understand what he meant.
Professor Wen fell silent. It was all his fault. If only he hadn't gone yesterday.
Zhang Shili seemed to see that Professor Wen was silent. In addition to the long tug-of-war and Zhang Shili's own reasons, and the fact that in Kyoto, except for their Guangda Publishing House that had the ability to publish, other publishing houses were simply hopeless, so he naturally relaxed a little.
He said in a somewhat contemptuous tone: "Professor Wen, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You are clearly discussing publishing with our Everbright Publishing House, why are you looking for another publishing house? Now it's all right."
