If they hadn't been colleagues for several years and Tonghua hadn't known his character, she would have thought she had encountered a tout at today's meal.
One meal cost her almost a month's salary, and it still hurts when she thinks about it now.
This was truly the most expensive meal she had ever had in her life.
Then I encountered such an embarrassing thing.
She swore she would never eat out with anyone who had a big appetite again.
With such a big appetite, even AA can't handle it.
Tonghua took the packing bag that Li Ji handed her and said calmly, "Thank you. I'm going home now. Goodbye."
Li Ji said to her in a daze: "Where do you live? I'll take you back. I have a car."
There is always his father's car parked in the parking lot in front of the restaurant, so that he can occasionally pick up and drop off customers who come to his restaurant for dinner. Now, he can just send Tonghua home. He just went to the office in the restaurant to get the key and has been waiting for it now.
Tonghua turned him down: "Don't bother you, I'll just take a taxi."
Tonghua continued walking forward. Li Ji followed her and said anxiously, "Taking a taxi is not as convenient as taking my car. My car is parked in the parking lot in front. We don't have to walk far."
He pointed to the parked vehicles in front to show that what he said was true.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Tonghua softened her voice: "You are already so tired today, so go home and rest early. It is not safe to drive while tired."
Hearing this, Li Ji felt happy. Tonghua was taking the initiative to care about his safety.
Thinking about it carefully, what the fairy tale said was right. Safety is the most important thing. Just now when he was eating, there was a dish that used cocktail seasoning. He didn't know if it was because of that dish, but now he feels particularly excited.
"You really don't need me to send you off?"
Fairy Tale said firmly: "No need."
"Okay then, I'll take you to the car."
Li Ji walked to the side of the road and hailed a taxi. After watching Tonghua get in the car and leave, he left reluctantly.
On the way back, he was so happy that he almost jumped up. He felt that today was great.
He finally took the first step with the girl he liked.
Yes!
Next, I just wait to resign from the company.
But resigning is a bit difficult. If the manager doesn't agree, I can't leave.
However, he believed that as long as he applied a few more times, he would be approved. After his resignation letter was approved, he would wait for another month to complete the resignation process with the company.
After quitting his job, he can pursue his fairy tale openly.
By then...
Li Ji had a silly smile on his face and walked back to the restaurant unknowingly.
He looked at everything in the restaurant and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that bringing Tonghua here to eat was definitely a perfect idea.
Look at their place, the environment is nice and the food is pretty good too. The reason he likes to eat at their own restaurant is that some of the dishes are basically designed according to his taste.
After all, it’s my own restaurant, so naturally I have to eat what I like.
Look, after the meal, wasn’t Tonghua so happy that she asked for all the leftover dishes to be packed up?
He walked around the restaurant, nodding his head as he strolled.
Since I'm here, I might as well go back and visit my parents.
He hasn't been home for a while.
He was humming a little tune and was about to leave, but was stopped by the tall waitress.
The waitress looked at him pitifully: "Master, are you leaving now?"
Li Ji was in a good mood, so he told her the truth, and also reminded her: "Well, I'm leaving here now and going home to see my parents. You work hard in the store, An Xiao."
Seeing that Li Ji was about to turn around and leave again, she immediately took a step forward and blocked his way: "Who was that woman you just brought to the restaurant for dinner?"
Speaking of fairy tales, Li Ji's face was a little shy: "She, she is my colleague now."
But it won’t be long before she becomes my girlfriend.
Thinking of this, Li Ji's heart was bubbling with joy.
Seeing Li Ji's delight, An Xiao said with a hint of resentment, "Young Master has a good relationship with her, right?"
Li Ji was beginning to get impatient. What on earth was this An Xiao up to? Every time he came here, she would ask him all sorts of questions and talk about all sorts of things. Although he liked the food here, he didn't come here often because of her.
He once asked his parents why they let such a person stay in the store.
His mother said that An Xiao was the daughter of a distant relative of hers. She graduated from college but couldn't find a job, so her relative used his connections to find her for help. Because they were relatives, his mother suggested that she stay in the restaurant to work.
Since he is a relative, Li Ji couldn't ask his parents to fire him.
Seeing Li Ji frowning, obviously unhappy, An Xiao bit her red lower lip and said rather unwillingly, "So, Master, you like this kind of petty woman?"
As soon as the two of them entered the door, she noticed the woman. The clothes she was wearing didn't cost more than a hundred yuan and were obviously street goods.
Such a cheap woman, I don’t know what means she used to attract the young master’s attention.
Hearing someone badmouthing the person he liked in front of him, the usually good-tempered Li Ji also became angry. He stepped forward and said, "I'm warning you, don't say bad things about Tong Hua. You have to recognize your identity. You are just an ordinary waiter. Don't always rely on your little relationship with our family to dictate my affairs!"
An Xiao was stunned. No matter how impatient he was with her before, he had never said such cruel words to her. But now, for a woman, he was humiliating her in public.
She saw two receptionists who were also waiters, looking like they were enjoying a show and talking to the people next to them. She knew without a doubt that they were saying something bad about her.
The guests next to him also turned their heads from time to time and looked at him.
Their faces showed sympathy, curiosity, and scrutiny...
Those gazes, like X-rays, swept over her body. An Xiao could no longer bear it. She looked at Li Ji with tears in her eyes, covered her face and ran away from Li Ji in anger.
Seeing that he made the person cry, Li Ji was a little flustered. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and wanted to pull her, but he only touched a piece of clothes.
"Oh." Li Ji looked at the direction where An Xiao left in annoyance.
Isn't it a bit too much for him to speak to a girl in such a harsh tone?
Should I get her back?
