Chapter 14 Is it the President?



Qin Zun, lying in bed, couldn't sleep well. His stomach felt burning, as if magma was constantly rolling.

I couldn't help it at night and went downstairs to drink water many times.

I didn't sleep much the whole night.

After washing up in the morning, I went downstairs.

The two looked at each other.

"Good morning." Tonghua smiled.

This woman made him unable to sleep well all night, and now she dares to laugh at him.

"snort."

"Hey, where are you going? It's time to eat."

Seeing Qin Zun walk past her and towards the entrance, Tonghua quickly poked her head out of the kitchen.

"I don't want to eat anymore!"

With a bang, the door was closed.

Who made him angry so early in the morning?

Forget it, I’ll eat it myself.

......

I finally made it to lunch break and was able to rest for a while.

"Let's all go to the West Coast Restaurant downstairs for lunch. I'll treat you to lunch." Xia Zihao walked out of the manager's office triumphantly, pointing at himself with his thumb.

There was a sudden cheer in the office.

Seeing his beaming face, Lin Yahui jokingly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so generous today?"

Xia Zihao just smiled mysteriously.

"I won't go. I brought some food." Tonghua said softly.

"Everyone wants to go, but you are the only one who doesn't give face?" Li Fan said contemptuously.

"Let's go, don't be embarrassed." Lin Yahui hugged Tonghua and pushed her out the door.

It is the peak meal time now, and a lot of people can only wait slowly for the elevator.

Bored, Xiao Wei said cheerfully, "I heard from the manager that Xia Zihao has taken on a big project this time, so he's definitely going to get a bonus. We can't be polite to him."

Xia Zihao wasn't angry at all. Instead, he agreed, "Everyone, feel free to order whatever you want. Don't be polite to me."

"Then we really won't be polite. Don't feel bad when you pay the bill." Lin Yahui winked at him.

"no problem."

Slowly, the elevator opened and colleagues discussed what dishes they wanted to eat.

When everyone walked to the restaurant where they often ate downstairs from the company, they found that the door was closed.

"Why is the West Coast restaurant closed? This has never happened before."

Everyone was very confused.

"Looks like there's no other way. I've got to go somewhere else. The Conch House next door is pretty good too, so let's go there."

Xia Zihao led everyone forward, but because a store was closed today, there were many people around, and they had to wait for a long time before a private room became available.

After everyone sat down one after another, the waiter handed the menu to Xia Zihao.

He took the menu and handed it to Li Ji next to him.

"How about this, each person orders one dish."

After we ordered, the waiter went out with the menu.

After a while.

"Sir, Madam, this is what you ordered."

A line of waiters came up and placed the dishes on the table.

Fairy Tale looked at the table full of dishes: boiled conch, crucian carp and steamed egg, chicken in coconut stew, sea cucumber and abalone stewed with tofu...

Each dish is fragrant and will whet your appetite.

After all the dishes were served, Tonghua devoured the food while listening to Xia Zihao's nonsense with great interest.

As he was speaking excitedly and everyone's attention was drawn to him, Li Fan suddenly walked up to Xiao Wei, half-knelt down, and said earnestly, "Director Xiao, I'll toast you a glass."

Director Xiao smiled and declined, "I'm busy with work this afternoon, so I won't drink. Xia Zihao is treating us today, so you should toast him."

Li Fan's flattering face stiffened for a moment, and then he returned to his seat in shame.

When he returned to his seat, he happened to make eye contact with Tonghua, who was so engrossed in eating.

Suddenly, she glared at Tonghua fiercely: "Did you see everything?"

fairy tale:???

"Don't think I don't know about your troubles," Li Fan said threateningly, "but don't forget, our company prohibits office romances."

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Tonghua said in confusion: "I don't understand what you are saying at all."

"Don't think you can fool me with this look. I'm not a man and I won't fall for it." Li Fan's tone was full of disdain.

Although their affair was hidden rather secretly, she could tell at a glance that Li Ji treated her differently. Look, Li Ji was even deliberately sitting next to her now. One day, when she had evidence of their office romance, these two would just have to wait to be fired.

"I,,"

Tonghua was just about to ask her for clarification, but Li Fan just turned her face away, obviously not wanting to listen to her.

At this time, Lin Yahui walked in excitedly and said to everyone, "Hey, do you know why the restaurant next door is closed today?"

It turned out that she had just gone out to use the restroom, but in the bathroom, she heard the customer next to her talking about this matter.

She didn't leave in a hurry, but listened.

"What's wrong? What news did you hear?"

"Just tell me now, don't keep me in suspense."

Tonghua also wanted to know why. The restaurant downstairs was so small. It was always crowded every time we ate there. When Tonghua came in the morning, there were other people eating breakfast inside. She didn't know why it closed at noon.

"I heard from them that not long ago, some important person seemed to be eating next door. He fainted while eating. Immediately, several men in black jumped out and ordered the store to be sealed off. They suspected that someone had poisoned the store. The owner was scared to death."

Lin Yahui spoke about this incident with great excitement, as if she had been there in person.

"Poisoning? Men in black? You are kidding, right? I saw you didn't drink any alcohol at noon." Xia Zihao was a little unhappy. After all, the limelight was stolen and no one listened to him anymore.

"It's absolutely impossible that it was poisoning. The restaurant was running well. If this happened, then they would be harming themselves..." Xiao Wei said disapprovingly.

"Hey, do you think that big shot could be the president of our company? After all, he has bodyguards." Lin Yahui guessed, "Who would send bodyguards to follow ordinary people?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the private room fell silent.

It was Li Fan who broke the silence.

"How is that possible? He is the president of our company after all. How could he eat in such a small restaurant?" Li Fan covered his mouth and laughed.

"Haha, that's true. Don't the CEOs on TV always eat French food and drink red wine for every meal?" Xia Zihao said disapprovingly.

"The president also has to go to work. Maybe he's eating there because he's in a hurry?" Tonghua said in a low voice.

But everyone just laughed it off.

"Do you think that a company president would be like you, an employee, who has no time to eat because of work?" Li Fan rolled his eyes at Tonghua.

Well, that seems to make some sense.
