Chapter 756 I'll Treat You to Hot Pot
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Qi returned to the treatment room.
With the opening of the new store, the number of customers increased dramatically, and everyone was busy until after seven in the evening before closing.
"Thank you for your hard work today. Everyone, go home early!" Ruan Qi smiled and waved goodbye to the shop assistants, then lowered the rolling shutter.
After counting the bills at the cash register, Nie Heng twisted his neck and happily followed the little girl into the clinic.
"Senior Sister, today's sales——"
Before he could finish his words, the screen in the corner moved twice and Cheng Jinyan walked out from behind.
When Nie Heng saw him, he was stunned at first, and then the little puppy turned into a big Tibetan mastiff.
Cheng family!
Why are they everywhere!
Nie Heng subconsciously pulled Ruan Qi behind him and asked with a wary look, "What are you doing here?"
Cheng Jinyan remembered Nie Heng.
He still remembered vividly the last time on the Fourth Ring Road, Nie Heng squatted on a skateboard and was pulled by an electric scooter.
"Mr. Nie." Cheng Jinyan greeted him.
Nie Heng didn't have a good impression of the Cheng family at all.
He protected Ruan Qi behind him like a hen protecting her chicks, and kept looking around the house for weapons to hit people.
"Little Dog," Ruan Qi pulled his clothes and whispered, "Young Master Cheng is here to beg for food."
Nie Heng: “?”
Cheng Jinyan: "..."
He was silent for a second, trying to clear his name, "Miss Ruan, I'm here to ask for the meal you owe me, not to beg for food."
"It's all about the same thing, so don't be so picky." The little girl waved her hand nonchalantly, "Little Dog, go change your clothes. We'll treat Young Master Cheng to dinner."
…
Twenty minutes later.
Cheng Jinyan looked up at the five words "Haidilao Hotpot" and fell silent.
He never dreamed that Ruan Qi would come here to treat him to a meal.
As the eldest son of the Cheng family, even the chopsticks he used for eating out cost at least five figures. For a cheap hot pot restaurant like this, he didn't even know which way the door faced.
Cheng Jinyan looked at the steps in front of him and felt his legs feel a little heavy.
He looked at Ruan Qi beside him, unable to put into words, "Miss Ruan, are you sure this is the place?"
"Yeah." The little girl blinked. "Today is Monday, and the hot pot restaurant is half price. I have a membership card, so it's super cheap! Come on, come on, I've booked a private room!"
Ruan Qi rushed into the hot pot restaurant.
Nie Heng glanced at Cheng Jinyan, sneered, and followed him in.
Cheng Jinyan looked at the little girl's disappearing back, pressed his forehead expressionlessly, and walked up the stairs with heavy steps.
…
Cheng Jinyan had the cheapest hotpot meal he had in 27 years.
Ruan Qi ordered a whole table full of food, and when she paid the bill, it was less than three hundred yuan.
The little girl glanced at the receipt and took the Coke from the waiter with satisfaction.
"Mr. Cheng, I've already treated you to the meal I owe you. Let's..."
Before the words were spoken, Cheng Jinyan suddenly interrupted, "I'll take Miss Ruan back."
Ruan Qi paused and quickly shook his head.
She doesn't want to owe anyone a favor anymore.
Cheng Jinyan saw the little girl's defensiveness and chuckled.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Ruan. I won't ask you to treat me to a meal this time."
He glanced at the time and said, "It's already past nine in the evening. Even for Mr. Xi's sake, I should send you home safely. Moreover, with Miss Ruan's status, it seems inconvenient for her to stay outside for too long."
Ruan Qi wanted to refuse, but was pulled back by Nie Heng.
"Sister, there are too many people on this street. You're a public figure, so it's inconvenient to take a taxi outside. You'd be a fool not to take advantage of a bargain."
