Chapter 128 "Then... I'll try it tonight"
Zhang Hening and Song Xi exchanged glances.
Zhang Hening: "Why is he back?"
Song Xi: "I don't know."
The anger of the two men stopped abruptly, and when Jing Zhuo walked in, Zhang Hening interrupted him in time.
"Stop, truce."
She checked her phone and changed the subject: "It's time. How about we eat hot pot first and then argue afterward?"
"OK."
After the two of them had a heated argument, they hurried out with their bags on their backs, whispering to each other as they huddled together.
"What's the soup base for today?"
"Spicy beef fat hot pot with mushroom broth."
"We won't be poisoned again, will we?"
"Don't worry, that won't happen again. The boss won't give out chopsticks this time. He'll give out chopsticks and spoons after the food is cooked."
Just like that, the two of them brushed past Jing Zhuo and ran towards the entrance.
As if, turning a blind eye.
Zhang Hexing came downstairs at some point and leaned against the stairs, holding a lollipop in his mouth, watching with great interest.
Seeing Jing Zhuo, he exclaimed with joy.
"It's fun to see girls quarreling."
Sometimes they quarreled fiercely and exposed each other's secrets, and sometimes they made up and could eat hot pot together again.
Jing Zhuo patted his shoulder and walked out with him in his arms.
"What are you doing, brother?"
"Eat hot pot."
"They didn't invite us to go, right?" Zhang Hexing raised his eyebrows and teased him.
"Look at their IQs. Do they look like they wouldn't get poisoned by eating mushroom hotpot?" Jing Zhuo said, "It's best if they have family members accompanying them."
Zhang Hexing: "...That's true."
Come on.
-
At the four-person table by the window, the steaming hot hot pot was served, and the air conditioner was providing a cool breeze.
The boss was alert this time and put a timer on the table.
After the timer started beeping, he scooped out a spoonful of soup as a sample and distributed tableware to the four people.
He originally planned to eat the fresh mushrooms he brought from his hometown.
But the two little girls came again and insisted on adding some to the soup, saying that it was fresh, delicious and unforgettable.
There was no choice but to add a little more for them.
"Come on, let's eat!"
Zhang Hening happily filled a bowl of mushroom soup and placed it in front of Zhang Hexing.
"Try it, second brother, how does it taste?"
Zhang Hexing glanced at her and said, "You want me to taste the poison with the first bowl? Why don't you drink it yourself?"
Zhang Hening turned the tables and said, "I was thinking of you for your own good, but look at you, your heart is dirty."
The brother and sister exchanged a few words.
We had a very enjoyable meal.
While putting the food into the pot, Song Xi whispered to Jing Zhuo beside him.
"Didn't you say you were working overtime tonight and not eating hot pot?"
Jing Zhuo lowered his head and tasted the mushroom soup: "Chen Feng went for me."
When Song Xi heard this, he felt a little sympathy for the workers.
"It's not easy for Special Assistant Chen. He's busy during the day and has to work overtime for the boss at night."
Jing Zhuo glanced at her and said, "His overtime pay is twice as much as your base salary."
Song Xi: "Okay."
Dead mouth, let you talk.
Now the clown becomes himself.
Because Jing Zhuo was there, Zhang Hening didn't dare to talk about Su Cheng anymore and ate the meal quietly.
In the second half of the meal, some customers at other tables recognized Zhang Hexing and took out their mobile phones to secretly take pictures.
While taking pictures, he also chirped loudly.
"Look, that's really Zhang Hexing!"
"Isn't that man opposite his financial backer?"
"It turns out what they said online was true. He really was having an affair with his financial sponsor, and they both had hotpot late at night."
"In order to avoid suspicion, he even brought two beautiful women with him as a cover."
"Snap, snap, snap! Take some photos and post them online to piss off those crazy fans of Zhang Hexing!"
The three Zhang siblings: "..."
Song Xi: “…”
What a rich imagination.
So this is how wild gossip spreads?
The masses have their own logic and judgment.
It seems like he won't listen to any explanation.
She suddenly thought of the many outrageous rumors on the Internet, and wondered if they were all fabricated in this way.
The crickets were still chirping, and suddenly, Jing Zhuo picked up a piece of beef, dipped it in sauce, and fed it to Song Xi's mouth.
"Wife, eat."
Then, he picked up the juice on the table and handed it to Song Xi's mouth.
"Wife, drink!"
Then, he raised his slender wrist and placed it on her shoulder, leaning his whole body against her, getting very close to her.
"Wife, what else do you want to eat? Your husband will pick it up for you."
Song Xi: “…”
What a satisfying rumor-busting.
At the end of the meal, Zhang Hexing politely went to the next table to explain that this was a family dinner.
And asked them to delete the photos and not spread rumors.
Otherwise you will receive a lawyer's letter.
Humans are fighters only online. Offline, they are as honest as quails and can be scared off with just a few words.
The photos were completely deleted.
After dinner, Zhang Hening and Song Xi went to the bathroom and then removed the odor in the clean room.
While no one was disturbing her, she grabbed Song Xi and gave him some instructions.
"You must convince my eldest brother tonight to transfer me to Sucheng, even if he doesn't give me any money, okay?"
Song Xi: "I'd better transfer the money to you."
Zhang Hening held her back, feeling both aggrieved and sad.
"Xibao, why are you like this—"
"I asked you to marry me to the capital so that you could accompany me, but after you got married, you spent all your time with Zhang Henian. He is fierce and competitive, and I can't compete with him."
"You have a husband now, and you can't stay with me forever."
Song Xi retorted: "I can do it."
"Then can you sleep with me every night?" Zhang Hening asked.
Song Xi felt guilty: "I'm sorry, I can't."
The first and main reason is that I’m afraid of being kicked by her.
The second Zhang Henian would indeed not agree.
Seeing the resentful, pitiful, and rosy face of the eldest daughter, Song Xi felt a little guilty.
After all, from He Ning's perspective, her best friend got married and no longer played with her, so she was inexplicably disliked by her brother.
As a latecomer, she became a third wheel.
It wouldn't be pleasant for anyone.
"Then... I'll try it tonight."
Song Xi agreed weakly.
Five minutes later, the two came out of the purification room, kissing and hugging each other.
Jing Zhuo pulled the person from Zhang Hening and asked Zhang Hexing to drive her back, while he drove Song Xi back.
The two best friends said goodbye happily and went back to their respective homes.
Along the way, Song Xi sat in the passenger seat and secretly glanced at Jing Zhuo several times. Her words were stuck in her throat and she didn't know how to speak for her best friend.
"explain."
Jing Zhuo uttered a word, his eyes still focused on the front.
Song Xi started chatting and casually asked him, "How is He Ning doing in your company?"
"Like a cicada." Jing Zhuo said.
"Huh?" Song Xi didn't react for a moment.
"It's a little noisy when she's around, but peaceful when she's not."
Song Xi quickly agreed, "Yeah, she can be quite noisy sometimes."
"I heard your company is going to expand into Sucheng..." Song Xi said casually, "Why don't you transfer her to Sucheng? That way there won't be any quarrels and it'll be quiet."
The car was silent for a few seconds.
Song Xi held her breath and secretly observed his expression.
Then Jing Zhuo said calmly, "Zhang Hening asked you to deal with me."
"She's attracted to Song Shiqian?"
Song Xi was shocked for a moment: "How did you know?"
