Yan Meng listened to Qiu Qiu's praise without any modesty, raised his lips and said: "Most of the stores of Bailu Clothing were selected by me personally, so of course I have rich experience."
"Yes!" Qiu Qiu turned into a little fangirl, praising and thanking Yan Meng, "Boss Yan, thank you so much! With you as my advisor, I feel much more confident!"
Yan Meng suddenly glanced at me, then said lightly: "It's a small matter. You are Xiao Shan's friend, so you are also my friend. It is only natural for me to help you. You don't have to be so polite."
"Oh——" Qiu Qiu deliberately prolonged the voice, looked at me with an ambiguous look, and smiled like an aunt.
I frowned and glared at Yan Meng silently.
He is talking nonsense again, causing misunderstanding!
I changed the subject and asked Qiu Qiu, "Where are we going next? Should I take you home?"
Qiu Qiu shook his head. "Boss Yan helped me so much, so of course I have to treat him to a meal! So I thought of asking you to come along, so I came to pick you up!"
Seeing Qiu Qiu's matter-of-fact look, I felt helpless.
She really doesn't need to think about me all the time...
Moreover, she and Yan Meng came to pick me up together without notifying me or letting me prepare myself mentally, and they didn't even ask me a single question.
I glanced at Qiu Qiu through the rearview mirror. Her excited expression clearly showed that she was obsessed with the couple.
At this time, Yan Meng took the initiative to ask: "What do you want to eat?"
"Hotpot!" Qiu Qiu said bluntly, "I know there's a new hotpot place that's particularly authentic. Shall we go there for hotpot?"
I don’t mind, but after all, Qiu Qiu said before that it was to thank Yan Meng, so I have to consider Yan Meng’s intentions.
I asked Yan Meng softly, "Can you? If you don't want to eat hot pot, we can change to something else."
"It's okay, hot pot is good. Let's have hot pot."
Yan Meng was easygoing. Following Qiu Qiu's directions, he drove the car to the authentic hot pot restaurant that Qiu Qiu mentioned.
The car stopped at the door and Qiu Qiu rushed in impatiently.
Yan Meng and I followed him in and chose a large table in the corner.
The waiter came over to take the order. Qiu Qiu picked up the menu and placed the order generously, ordering almost all the dishes in the restaurant.
"What about the soup base?" asked the waiter.
Without thinking, Qiu Qiu replied, "It's all hot pot."
"Wait a minute!" I stopped the waiter.
In the past, when Qiu Qiu and I ate hotpot together, we always ordered a spicy hotpot, and she placed the order according to her habit, but she overlooked that Yan Meng was also with us this time.
I said to the waiter, "Let's have a shabu-shabu hotpot."
Qiu Qiu looked at me puzzledly: "When did you start going to Yuanyang Hotpot? Didn't you say that Yuanyang Hotpot is an insult to hotpot?"
My face changed and I kicked Qiu Qiu under the table, hinting with my eyes that she should consider Yan Meng.
When Qiu Qiu reacted, Yan Meng also realized what I meant.
Yan Meng smiled and said to the waiter, "Just order the whole spicy hotpot, it's okay."
When the hot pot came, Qiu Qiu ate it with great enthusiasm, his face full of satisfaction.
"It's so refreshing!" Qiu Qiu sighed, not forgetting to complain about me, "If it weren't for you, I would never dare to eat such spicy food in my life, and I would definitely miss out on a lot of fun."
Yan Meng looked at me suspiciously, obviously curious about what Qiu Qiu said.
I smiled helplessly. "Qiu Qiu used to be unable to handle spicy food. When she was in school, she wouldn't even dare to touch a hot pot like this. She would have to rinse a piece of meat in several bowls of water before she could finish it."
