Chapter 349 Dinner for Three
It's another weekend.
That night, Zhao Jiaying, Huang Jiaqi and Chen Haoming made an appointment to go out for dinner together.
The appointment time was seven o'clock, but Chen Haoming arrived at six fifty because he didn't want to keep the girl waiting for him.
Zhao Jiaying arrived on time, but Huang Jiaqi was fifteen minutes late.
"Sorry, sorry, the store is really busy today, so I'm late. To express my apology, I'll treat you to today's meal. You can order whatever you want. You don't have to save money for me."
Huang Jiaqi rushed to the agreed restaurant and spoke a lot of words without even having time to catch her breath.
"Jiaqi, sit down and have a drink of water first. Look at you, you are so anxious. It doesn't matter if it's later. Haoming and I will definitely wait for you."
Huang Jiaqi sat down, took the water handed to her by Zhao Jiaying, and drank it in one breath.
"Thank you dear, I'm really thirsty."
After Huang Jiaqi recovered, Chen Haoming slowly spoke: "Jiaqi, you have become more beautiful and more confident than before."
The success of her career has indeed made Huang Jiaqi more confident and more cheerful.
"I don't like what you said before. Haven't I always been this beautiful?" Huang Jiaqi deliberately teased Chen Haoming.
Chen Haoming smiled calmly and said, "I said the wrong thing. In fact, you have always been so beautiful."
Zhao Jiaying pushed Huang Jiaqi and said, "Okay, stop teasing Haoming."
Huang Jiaqi held back her laughter and said, "Okay, okay, I won't tease him anymore. I didn't expect that after not seeing him for so many years, Haoming is still so cute. No, I should say, he is still so handsome."
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking about these irrelevant things and quickly order some food. I've been busy since this morning and only ate a few mouthfuls of rice at noon. I'm almost starving."
Zhao Jiaying heard this and said worriedly, "Jiaqi, you can't do this. No matter how busy you are at work, you have to eat on time. Otherwise, your body won't be able to bear it for a long time, and you will get sick."
Chen Haoming: "Yes, Jiaqi, no matter how busy you are at work, you still have to eat three meals a day on time. After all, you can never make enough money. Good health is the most important thing."
His father suffered from this.
When I was young, I always said that I was busy with work and often didn’t eat on time for three meals a day. As a result, when he turned 40, his body began to take revenge on him.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have had to follow his parents to go abroad for his father's medical treatment.
Huang Jiaqi suddenly regretted and told them that she had only eaten a few mouthfuls of rice at noon. As a result, the two of them took turns to educate her.
But she also knew that they were all doing it for her own good and for her health.
"Okay, okay, stop lecturing me. I promise that no matter how busy I am, I will eat three meals a day on time. Now can we order some food? I'm really hungry." Huang Jiaqi said in a pleading tone.
Zhao Jiaying: "Then let's order some food, Haoming, what do you want to eat?"
"You decide. I can eat anything. Just don't let me eat steak or hamburgers..."
When he was abroad, he was really scared of eating these things.
So tonight, they chose a Chinese restaurant because the rice in their own country is more fragrant.
Huang Jiaqi: "Then we'll make the decision. We promise not to let you down."
When it comes to eating, Huang Jiaqi and Zhao Jiaying are quite good at it. Because most girls are foodies and have tried many delicious foods.
If you are afraid of getting fat, just control your food intake a little, but it is still okay to eat less.
Finally, they ordered a pickled fish, spicy shrimp, stir-fried tripe, general duck, stir-fried seasonal vegetables and a pot of mushroom soup.
We didn’t order beef because we guessed that Chen Haoming no longer wanted to eat any beef-related dishes.
The cooking speed in this restaurant is quite fast, and soon, the dishes they ordered came up one after another.
"Come..., let's eat first and talk while we eat."
Huang Jiaqi was so hungry that she didn't care about her image as a lady. She picked up a piece of duck meat and started eating it.
Chen Haoming and Zhao Jiaying ate slowly and leisurely.
While eating, Chen Haoming said, "Jiaqi, I heard from Yingbao that your store has opened more than a dozen branches."
Huang Jiaqi peeled shrimps and waved his hands, saying, "Hey... we are just small businesses trying to make a living. We can't compare with your big companies."
"You can't say that. You have made it with your own hands. I am just lucky. My father worked hard to build the empire and left it to me to manage. Compared to you, you are actually more capable."
Huang Jiaqi felt a little embarrassed when Chen Haoming praised her, and said modestly: "How can I be as good as you say? According to what you said just now, I am actually lucky. I met a good friend like Ying Bao, and I can achieve what I have today, thanks to Ying Bao's help. In the final analysis, it is Ying Bao who has made the greatest contribution."
It was Zhao Jiaying who asked her father Ou Zichen to fund the store for her to open, and also used the Ou Group to help her a lot behind the scenes, otherwise she would not be where she is today.
