Wang Qian smiled weakly and said to everyone pointing at her opposite bestie:
"My best friend, Luo Rong."
Luo Rong's heavily made-up face looked cheerful, and she excitedly grabbed Wang Qian's hand:
"Xiao Qian! It's been a while since I last saw you. Are you still as innocent and popular with boys as you were in college? Those grand promises you made in college must have come true, right?"
These words sounded like reminiscing about the past, but in fact they were veiled with ulterior motives. Wang Qian felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly. She could only smile foolishly, feeling like she wanted to cry but had no tears.
Luo Rong pointed at the boy behind her and said, "Xiao Qian, tell me, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Ma Wei. Can you help me check him out?"
Wang Qianren almost fainted: "How can I help you check? You've been dating for several years..."
Luo Rong showed a surprised expression on her face: "What do you mean we've been dating for several years? I just met him today!"
Old Tang was holding a skewer and about to eat it when he heard her say that. He suddenly felt like a button had cracked in his worldview.
Ma Wei very tactfully moved a stool and sat down next to Luo Rong, saying:
"Since we get along so well, let's eat at the same table. I just want to accept the test of Rongrong's best friend."
When Wang Qian heard the name "Rongrong", she secretly stuck out her tongue and felt like she was about to come.
Ma Wei stretched out his left hand, snapped his fingers twice in the air, and slid his sleeve down, revealing the Rolex watch on his wrist:
"waiter!"
He turned to the waiter and drew a big circle on the kebab section of the menu with his finger:
"All of these, 5 of each, if not enough, add more."
After that, he picked up a skewer on the table and said with a smile: "It's a food stall. The more people there are, the better the food tastes."
His few words revealed the host's aura, and those who didn't know would think he was treating everyone.
The three people who were originally sitting at this table and chatting happily now look like guests.
Luo Rong hugged Ma Wei's arm and said to Wang Qian with a smile:
"This boyfriend I just met today, he has a master's degree from the University of Finance and Economics, lives in Zishan District, and has a house and a row of shops at Dongshankou. What do you think? Does he sound like bragging?"
Ma Wei lowered his head and arranged the signatures on the table. He pushed all the toilet paper to the middle of the table and said:
"What are you bragging about? I just run a small business to make ends meet."
Wang Qian knew why Ma Rong specifically asked her to check it.
What do you mean by checking? You're just pretending in front of me!
She rolled her eyes and said, "Hey, what about that boyfriend you've been dating in college?"
Luo Rong waved her hand and said, "What ancient history are you talking about? We were young and ignorant back then. We were just playing around and didn't even touch hands."
Wang Qian wanted to roll her eyes.
Her hands had never touched anything? During her four years at university, she had spent less time sleeping in her own bed than cockroaches had crawling on it!
When she collected the mattress after graduation, it probably whispered in her ear, "I don't know you"!
"You are not..."
She was about to expose Luo Rong's lies when Luo Rong suddenly asked, "Are you working at Hongtu now? How's the salary at Hongtu? Is life good?"
Wang Qian changed the subject, "The salary is very good. Including bonuses, it's close to 10,000 yuan a month. Meals are all included, and there are snacks to eat. The company also has a rest area. The benefits are first-class."
Ma Wei smiled and said, "As expected of a Hongtu company. Big companies are different."
Luo Rong asked again: "Where do you usually live?"
"Rent a house. There are affordable houses available nearby. It's very close to the company and the commute only takes twenty minutes."
Wang Qian blushed a little, patted Chen Ya beside her and said:
"This is my boyfriend. We go to and from get off work together every day. It's pretty...good."
She wanted to show off a little more, but she was too embarrassed and swallowed it.
Luo Rong looked at Chen Ya again and again in surprise and said, "Okay, your boyfriend is quite handsome!"
At this time, everyone was united in their hatred of the enemy. Old Tang also hugged Chen Ya and said:
"Chen Ya is not only handsome, but also talented. He can write poetry and couplets... well, he can write beautifully."
"Puff!" Ma Wei was drinking water and couldn't help but spit it out.
Old Tang glared at him, "What? You don't believe it?"
Ma Wei wiped his mouth and said, "No, no, I believe it, I believe it. May I ask, sir, where have you published your works?"
Chen Ya drank water without saying a word.
"Don't be shy. I'm also good at literature. We can communicate."
Chen Ya put the cup on the table and said, "There's nothing much to talk about literature. Wang Qian's best friend, where do you work?"
Luo Rong grinned. "Me? I just got a job at Hongtu's business department and will be starting work there tomorrow."
"Ah?" Wang Qian lost her grip on the cup and it fell to the ground.
Luo Rong patted Ma Wei's shoulder and said, "He was interviewed in the same batch as me, so we know each other, right? We've been together for a day and our personalities are very compatible, so let's give it a try."
Old Tang's forehead was sweating and his hands holding the skewers were shaking.
After that, the meal became a large-scale show-off scene where Ma Wei spoke eloquently and quoted from classics, and only Luo Rong laughed wildly from time to time.
Ma Wei spoke all his words to Chen Ya. Chen Ya would sometimes nod and pretend to listen, but in fact he was already daydreaming.
After the show was over, the three of them walked out together, feeling sick all over.
Wang Qian said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't enjoy my meal today. It's all my fault. I'll make it up to you later."
Old Tang patted her shoulder and said, "You should be worried. If they join us, will they interfere with our gatherings every day?"
