Chapter 458 The takeaway is as generous as the person himself!
"How far is it? Another three hours in a taxi?" Wen Xinyuan sneered.
"That three-hour taxi ride wasn't because it was far, it was because of the traffic!" the fat man argued vigorously, "If it weren't for the traffic, it would only take an hour!"
"You also know it's because of traffic? Then I said I'd take the subway, who complained about the hassle?" Wen Xinyuan rolled his eyes at the fat man, then complained to Zhao Xiaojing and Guan Yingxia, "Sister Xia and Sister Jingzi, let me tell you, this guy is a rip-off. That time he said he'd treat me to a midnight snack, but the taxi cost me four hundred yuan! And we were much more tired that day than today. It was already eight o'clock when we finished our work. I said just grab something to eat, but he insisted on going to that restaurant, and we finally got there at eleven o'clock. It was really a midnight snack!"
"Eleven o'clock? Why is there still a traffic jam so late?" Zhao Xiaojing asked with a smile.
"The traffic jam started at 8:30. It happened to coincide with some local festival, and the only way to get through was blocked. It lasted for two hours!" Wen Xinyuan said, glaring at the fat man again. "It's a good thing you two were here today. If you weren't here, who knows where he would have tricked me!"
"You're so good at it. You go wherever I tell you to go? You have a mouth that won't refuse?"
"Girl, I'll treat you!" The fat man was mocking her when Mao Tingxiu came over with the girl who had swapped groups with the fat man today, carrying three large bags of takeout. She placed the largest bag in front of Zhao Xiaojing and said, "Look handsome today. Thank you for upholding justice!"
"Sister Mao, have you forgotten something? Wasn't it me who helped you change groups?" The fat man glanced at the takeaway and looked at Mao Tingxiu suspiciously.
"That's what you deserve. If you don't do it, who will? Just eat it for free, stop showing off!"
"Come on, sister! We're rooting for you!" Mao Tingxiu's friend said to Zhao Xiaojing with a smile.
After they finished talking, they turned around and left, not giving the fat man a chance to refute, and went to the table next to them with the two bags in their hands.
"Thank you, sister!" Zhao Xiaojing hurriedly thanked the two of them from behind, in return they waved their hands gracefully.
The unhappy fat man immediately opened the takeout bag, and the unhappy look on his face immediately disappeared. "Sister Mao is so open-minded!"
I saw that there were several barbecue thermal bags filled with food inside the takeaway bag. When I opened it, there were all kinds of barbecue skewers that I could think of and couldn’t think of.
Grilled pork belly, grilled crispy bones, grilled lamb skewers, grilled chicken feet, grilled chicken wings, grilled tendons, grilled chicken gizzards, large fried noodles, grilled squid, grilled oysters, grilled shrimp, grilled bread, grilled potato chips, grilled stinky tofu, grilled kidney slices, etc. etc.
They said they were treating Zhao Xiaojing, but it was obvious that this was a portion for four people, and it looked very good. The simple meal ordered for four people in the cafeteria was instantly overshadowed.
"Sister Mao is so generous! The takeout she ordered is as generous as she is!" The fat man gave a thumbs up, stretched his neck and shouted to Mao Tingxiu and the others at the next table.
"If I'm not generous, I'm afraid all the skewers will be eaten by you alone, and what will others have to eat?" Mao Tingxiu laughed bluntly.
"Sister Mao, when did you order the takeout? The delivery speed is like a rocket." Seeing the fat man being punished, Wen Xinyuan was so happy that he turned his head and started chatting with Mao Tingxiu.
"She ordered it when the last show was almost over. This was for her to practice. She'll leave after eating this meal." Mao Tingxiu raised her chin at her friend who was sitting opposite her and eating skewers.
"Sister Mao is the one who has the foresight to know that we can't leave today."
"If I don't know, I won't ask. The staff is right backstage. I'll know if I ask."
"Sister Mao, have you asked why we are in such a hurry this time? It's almost May Day, and there are three consecutive points races. We won't be able to buy tickets to go back by then." Wen Xinyuan inquired.
"Oh, you're asking me for information? If you two socialites want to know something, go ask them yourselves!"
Wen Xinyuan's neck shrank.
Zhao Xiaojing and Guan Yingxia looked at each other, and both smiled at the fact that Fatty and Wen Xinyuan were helpless when they met Mao Tingxiu.
"Well, it's okay to tell you." Mao Tingxiu saw Zhao Xiaojing and Guan Yingxia laughing, and she laughed too. "This show has to air officially on May Day, and it will be broadcast for three consecutive days to grab ratings. You guys can forget about going back on May Day. Three points races don't mean they can be finished in three days. I asked them about it under the pretext of trying to get tickets, and they said the points races are long. I don't know anything else."
"Thank you, Sister Mao. Sister Mao, I haven't drunk this yet, it's a token of my respect." The fat man picked up his and Wen Xinyuan's unopened drinks and placed them in front of Mao Tingxiu and the others.
Wen Xinyuan smiled along and glared at the fat man fiercely.
As they were eating, their cell phone message alerts rang simultaneously.
"VCR? Where can I get a VCR? Why are you telling me this now?" Wen Xinyuan frowned as he looked at his phone.
The message on the mobile phone was a notification from Bai Tao, requiring the qualified contestants to provide detailed personal achievements and work experience. If there is a VCR, it is best for each person to prepare a VCR of themselves at work.
"Didn't you record it when you promoted your store? You and Zhao Duo were so ostentatious, it's just a cooking video, can't you produce it?" Mao Tingxiu calmly closed her phone.
"Huh?" Wen Xinyuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly saw the light, "Yeah, I'll ask my dad to get me one right now!"
"Do you have it?" Guan Yingxia was also very calm. After thinking for a while and sending a few messages, she turned around and asked Zhao Xiaojing.
Zhao Xiaojing was about to say no when an idea struck her. She remembered the video Dazhuang had taken at the store. Although Zhao Xiaojing's face was barely visible when it was uploaded online, he had filmed a lot of it at the time, so there must be something useful. "Let me ask. A friend of mine filmed this before. I wonder if the original video still exists."
After the message was sent, Da Zhuang called directly.
"I've saved all the videos, none of them have been deleted. Email one to me and I'll edit it and send it to you later. Looks like you've advanced again?"
"Yes, luckily you didn't delete it, otherwise I would have no idea what to do if you suddenly asked for the VCR. Thanks, I'll treat you to dinner later."
"It's an honor to have the chef's style recorded on my computer. How can I delete it so easily? You don't need to ask me to have dinner with you. Just tell me when you get back to Jiangcheng. I'll even walk there."
"Okay, I'll contact you later." Zhao Xiaojing smiled and hung up the phone.
The next morning, when Zhao Xiaojing opened her eyes, she saw three messages sent in succession by her assistant.
"Sister is so cool! The video was shot so well, I sent it to the editor, and he said he didn't need to edit it, it was better than his!"
"I regret not secretly buying a meal made by my sister in Jiangcheng that day. I must eat it next time I have the chance!"
"Sister, who edited this video? Our boss saw it and asked me to ask this guy if he's interested in working for us. The salary is good and negotiable!"
