After hearing Wen Fang's words, Wang Yitong decided that what she wore and used wasn't really that important to her. As long as she liked something and it worked, that was all that mattered. As for the lives of the rich, she couldn't understand them, and there was no need to try; they were simply too far away. The right path was to focus on living a down-to-earth life and doing her job well.
A little later, Zhang Benyuan called her and asked where she was. She told him that he was at a skewers restaurant near Xinhua Park. He said he would drive over to pick her up right away.
After hearing this, Wen Fang said, "Your boyfriend is coming to pick you up? It's a good opportunity for me to see what kind of man has caught up with you."
Wang Yitong couldn't help feeling shy after hearing this: "He's just an ordinary man." The two continued to chat about various topics in life.
Suddenly, the door of the shop was pushed open and a figure walked in. Zhang Benyuan walked with steady steps, a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes fell directly on Wang Yitong.
A feeling of joy surged in Wang Yitong's heart. She stood up and walked towards Zhang Benyuan with a smile.
Zhang Benyuan walked up to Wang Yitong, gave her a gentle hug, then took her hand and sat down in the seat next to her.
He said, "Boss, bring some more dishes and another bowl of fried rice."
Wen Fang studied him. The watch on his wrist, if she was right, was a Rolex. She'd seen a boss wearing one before when she'd accompanied her husband to a social event. It looked like it cost 300,000 yuan. He didn't look too old, probably in his early 30s. Tongmei was doing well. She'd quietly found a quality man. Her husband was an old, shabby old man, a far cry from him.
"Hi, handsome guy, I'm Wen Fang, a good friend of mine from Yitong Newspaper. What's your last name? I wonder where you made your fortune?"
"My surname is Zhang, and I run a small business. I often hear Yitong mention you. Thank you for taking care of her. It is her honor to know you. Although you have changed jobs, you can get together often when you have time in the future." Zhang Benyuan said with a smile.
"You are too low-key. I guess Yitong and I will meet less often in the future. I may have to go to Hangzhou later. My husband is working on a project there, and I have to go and take care of him." Wen Fang said.
The two of them had almost finished their meals, so Zhang Benyuan was now accompanying him. He ate skewers and fried rice, finishing his order in no time. "I haven't had skewers in a long time. The last time I remember having them was at a college party," Zhang Benyuan said with a nostalgic look.
Wang Yitong echoed this sentiment: "I rarely eat skewers either. When I had dorm gatherings in college, we'd always have cold pot fish for 18 yuan per person, or maocai (Chinese maocai). Chengdu's skewers and hot pot restaurants are all doing brisk business. As the saying goes, eat in Chengdu, have fun in Chengdu. It proves how important eating is."
After hearing this, Wen Fang said, "A big boss like him would rarely get involved in our mundane lives."
"You've got to be kidding me. I'm just an ordinary farmer. I just worked a few years earlier than you to support my family. Boss, please settle the bill." After saying this, Zhang Benyuan called over to the boss to settle the bill.
After paying the bill, the three of them walked out of the skewers shop together.
"I'll take you to the car first. You can go back first. I'm just a few steps away. Thank you for treating me today. Let's keep in touch in the future." After Wen Fang finished speaking, Yitong hugged her and said to her, "Sister Fang, we're leaving first. You can contact me anytime you are free."
Zhang Benyuan helped Wang Yitong carry the bag, and the two walked side by side towards the car on the side of the road. He opened the car door and helped Wang Yitong get in the car.
Wang Yitong rolled down the car window and said, "Sister Fang, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Yitong, see you next time." Wen Fang watched them leave and turned back to her community.
Wen Fang said as they walked, "This man is rich and drives an Audi. I hope Tongmei doesn't suffer any loss. I guess she will be controlled by him. The gap is too big. Oh, why did I worry so much? I made money. He also gave me a set of skin care products, which saved me hundreds of dollars. I didn't expect that I would gain so much by taking her with me out of courtesy." After that, she was heard humming a song as she walked.
