Seeing the manager panic, Xiao Meili stepped forward and said, "Manager, it's okay, I just met someone I know." After saying that, she looked at the colleague who followed behind her and knew that it was her who made the complaint.
The manager didn't listen to her side of the story. He watched as a young girl was pushed into the private room, with two tall, burly men blocking the door. A smile crossed his somewhat portly face. "Comrades, is there something wrong?"
Those who can reserve a private room must be very particular people, and he doesn't want to offend them.
Cao An glanced at Qi Siling, raised his chin and let him speak.
Qi Siling said helplessly, "Tell her to make three cups of strong tea. We've been pestering her for a long time. We are only familiar with her brother, and her brother has already severed ties with the family."
The manager understood the situation immediately after hearing it. They were all shrewd people. In this day and age, if they could cut off ties with their family, they must not be a good family.
He glared at Xiao Meili, who was huddled aside, and said anxiously, "Why don't you go quickly? You've already spent so much time on three cups of strong tea. Do you still want to work?"
Xiao Meili was scolded and quickly went to the back with her neck shrunk.
"Pour two more glasses of boiled water." Qi Siling added expressionlessly.
Cao An was satisfied, a smile appeared on his face, and he shook hands with the manager.
"Which unit are you from?" the manager asked in a flattering tone, and it was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
"I'm still a student at Huazhong University of Science and Technology and don't have a job." Cao An answered truthfully.
"Oh, Huazhong University of Science and Technology! That's the top institution of learning, so amazing!" The manager gave him a thumbs up and shook hands with Qi Siling.
"Comrade, are you treating us to a meal?"
Qi Siling nodded, shook hands with him and said nothing.
After a while of awkward chatting, Xiao Meili made some tea and brought it over.
Cao An opened the door of the box and led a few people in.
The manager followed him in and took a look. Among the few people, he knew Huang Run!
The captain of the public security bureau!
Patrolling here frequently!
"Hey, isn't this Captain Huang? How come you have time to come over for dinner today?"
Huang Run stood up and said with a smile, "See if you have any new dishes? It's always the same old three things. Aren't you afraid that the customers will get tired of them?"
The manager laughed and went up to shake his hand. "Isn't it because we hope you'll come more often so you can give us some suggestions?" Then he looked at the man sitting at the main guest seat, smiling at him. "Who is this?"
Huang Run knew what he was thinking, "This is Director Hou." He didn't say where he was from.
The manager understands, just follow his instructions.
"Hello, Director Hou."
Cao An frowned, not liking this way of socializing. After Director Hou shook hands with him, he started to chase him away.
"Manager, please help me to hurry up the food."
"Okay, I'll go now and not disturb you." He followed the advice and left the box with Xiao Meili, who still looked unwilling.
The box finally quieted down, and Cao An apologized to Director Hou.
The meal was eaten politely. Xia Youyou just waited quietly for Qi Siling to feed her, and didn't care how Cao An chatted with Director Hou about all sorts of things.
They didn't come out of the private room until after seven o'clock when they had dinner.
Huang Run supported the drunk Director Hou, and Cao An protected him on the side.
After the two of them walked away supporting each other, Cao An and Qi Siling came out pushing their bicycles.
Xiao Meili had been waiting at the door of the state-owned restaurant. When she saw them finally finish their meal and the guests leave, she came out from the corner and blocked the three people's way.
Qi Siling was sitting astride the bicycle, adjusting the seat on the front bar, and was about to hug Xia Youyou with one hand.
He reached out with his long hand but found nothing, then he looked up to look for the little girl.
Xia Youyou was talking to Cao An, wanting to see if he was drunk. Unexpectedly, Xiao Meili stood in front of Cao An's bicycle, and the two of them looked at her.
Qi Siling also found the little girl at this time. He supported himself with his feet, moved the bicycle forward, and hugged Xia Youyou's waist from behind.
"Sit down." Naturally, he saw Xiao Meili, but he didn't want to pay attention to her.
Cao An frowned, turned the car and was about to step on the pedal.
Seeing that they ignored her, Xiao Meili spoke up.
"Take me to find my brother. My mother misses him very much."
Xia Youyou sat firmly on the front bar and looked at her puzzledly, "Your brother is at school, why don't you just go to school and look for him? Why are you stopping us?"
Qi Siling turned her little face towards her, as if she didn't want the dirt to dirty her eyes.
"Be good and sit tight."
Two bicycles rushed out from beside Xia Meili, completely ignoring how ugly her face was.
It was getting dark early, and the road was no longer clear. Xia Youyou was a little worried about Cao An, who was drinking in front of her, so she used a flashlight to light the way for the two of them, and reminded Cao An, "Brother, slow down."
Cao An ignored her reminder and said, "I'm so strong, I can't fall."
Qi Siling leaned over to smell her hair and rubbed his cheek against hers, "Don't worry about him. Are you cold? Can you handle it?"
"Be good, I'll get you some clothes when we get to that place where there's no one."
After saying that, he reached out and held her small hand holding the flashlight, holding her soft hand that was cooled by the wind tightly, and transferring the warmth to her.
Cao An hummed a tune out of tune and rode forward crookedly. Several times he was so scared that he kept staring at Xia Youyou and screaming.
"Can't you just be steady? It's night time!"
"What are you afraid of? I'm not going to hit you."
Okay, Xia Youyou choked, stuffed the flashlight into the man's hand, and then nestled into his arms, "I don't care."
Qi Siling placed the flashlight on his right hand, which steadied the handle, and rubbed the little girl in his arms against his body with his left hand, "You don't have to worry about him. Look how cold you are." He ripped open his shirt and let her put her arms inside, hugging his back, distracting himself with the unbearable throbbing.
Cao An was unaware of the little tricks of the two people behind him. When he saw the light move away, he looked around and made sure that there was no one around before he took out a flashlight from the space and turned on the light himself.
Qi Siling slowed down the car, propped himself up with his long legs, and took out a long windbreaker. "Be good, put on your clothes. Are your feet cold?"
Xia Youyou shook her head, put her hand into her sleeve, put on her clothes with his help, yawned delicately, and looked at the man who lowered his head with moist eyes.
The man in the dim light was extremely tempting. She couldn't help but pout her lips and kiss his jaw.
Qi Siling, who was helping her tidy up her clothes, was stunned, then chased after her and kissed her.
Cao An, who was anxious due to the alcohol in the front, did not hear the movement behind him, so he turned around to see what was going on.
"Hold!"
He snorted, turned around quickly, stepped harder, and muttered, "What the hell!" Are single people going to be forced to eat dog food?
This long night...
Stimulated by the alcohol and the sweetness of the two people behind him, Cao An felt even hotter. It was late at night and everyone was asleep, so he couldn't help but think of the scene when he went to pick up Na Ru in the morning.
