Chapter 414: Get Out If You Can’t Do It
Around seven o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming parked his car in front of the "Yipintang Donkey Meat Restaurant"... a hot pot restaurant not far to the east.
The restaurant is acting like a rogue, so what if you win the argument?
Gu Qingning and the others followed Yu Zhiming's advice and moved to the hot pot restaurant next door, which specializes in donkey meat hot pot.
Yu Zhiming parked the car and heard someone calling him as soon as he got out.
"Doctor Yu, Doctor Yu..."
Yu Zhiming followed the sound and saw a BMW temporarily parked on the side of the road.
Then I saw an acquaintance get out of the passenger seat.
Dr. Cui Zhitan, deputy director of the Department of General Surgery.
"Director Cui, what a coincidence?" Yu Zhiming went to greet him.
"Doctor Yu, I saw your car halfway and thought it was a coincidence that we would have dinner at the same restaurant."
"I didn't expect you to eat hot pot."
Cui Zhitan pointed to the Yipin Donkey Meat Restaurant not far ahead and explained, "A few friends have made an appointment at the donkey meat restaurant."
"Doctor Yu, what are you doing?"
"Family gathering!"
Yu Zhiming replied briefly, then chuckled, "Director Cui, what a coincidence! I almost ate at the donkey meat restaurant, but only changed to this hot pot restaurant about ten minutes ago."
Cui Zhitan groaned and said, "I know donkey meat restaurants are quite popular. If you go there on a whim, they usually don't have any private rooms."
"Doctor Yu, if you like this, I'll arrange it next week..."
Yu Zhiming hurriedly said, "Director Cui, no, no, I will never set foot in that donkey meat restaurant again."
Cui Zhitan heard that something was wrong and asked with concern: "Doctor Yu, has something happened?"
Yu Zhiming simply replied: "It's not a big deal."
"My girlfriend, Gu Qingning, booked private room number seven at the donkey meat restaurant two days ago, but when she got there just now, she was seated at table number seven in the lobby."
When Cui Zhitan heard this, his face was filled with a sense of solidarity.
"This is outrageous."
As he said that, he took out his cell phone from his pocket, found a name from the recent contacts and dialed it.
"Old Zhao..."
"You've arrived already?"
"Have you ordered the food?"
"No order? That's good!"
"I suddenly don't want to eat donkey meat anymore. I want to eat donkey meat hotpot. I'm in front of the hotpot restaurant east of the donkey meat restaurant."
"Come here, all of you!"
Yu Zhiming watched Cui Zhitan end the call and said a little embarrassedly: "Director Cui, there is no need to do this."
Cui Zhitan laughed and said, "I can't really help much, but I can still show my attitude."
"Besides, it's comfortable to eat hot pot in such a cold weather."
As he spoke, Cui Zhitan instructed the driver of his BMW to park the car here.
"Doctor Yu, let's go in together..."
In the second-floor lobby of the hot pot restaurant, Yu Zhiming saw Qing Ning, Third Sister, Fourth Sister, Zhang Bai, Fu Xiaobo, Fu Xiaoxue, Zeng Yan and others sitting together.
Yu Zhiming led Cui Zhitan over and then introduced both parties.
After some pleasantries, Cui Zhitan declined the invitation to sit down and eat together, and followed the waiter to a large dining table not far away that could accommodate seven or eight people.
Yu Zhiming sat down in the empty seat between Qing Ning and Third Sister, looking at Fu Xiaobo who was diagonally opposite him.
"Why didn't your dad come?"
Fu Xiaobo chuckled and said, "Uncle, my dad and some coworkers are having a party tonight."
Yu Zhiming said "oh", and then he heard Fu Xiaobo say, "Uncle, the donkey meat restaurant dared to replace our private room. They are absolutely looking down on us."
"They must have seen us getting out of the van before they dared to do that."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Then you should work hard to develop the decoration company and buy a cool car next year."
Fu Xiaobo chuckled again, "For us doing renovation projects, a van is actually more practical."
Yu Zhiming looked at Fu Xiaoxue and asked, "How much have you earned from your stocks now?"
Fu Xiaoxue put on a flattering smile and said, "Uncle, I didn't choose the right stocks at the time, so I lost a little over 6,000 yuan."
"However, I have enough confidence to achieve book profitability within six months."
Yu Zhiming curled his lips in disgust.
He looked at Zeng Yan again and found that she had lost some weight, but looked even more beautiful.
Zeng Yan took the initiative to report: "Uncle, I have completed all the transfer procedures. I am now a real student of Jiaotong University School of Medicine."
“As for academics, I have kept up with the course progress.”
Yu Zhiming nodded and reminded him, "Remember what I said before, studying medicine is like a marathon."
“There’s no need to rush to catch up. As long as you persevere to the finish line, even if you’re the last one, you’ve succeeded.”
Zeng Yan laughed and said, "Uncle, I've always remembered it. I can eat and sleep well now, I exercise every day, and my studies seem to be on the right track."
At this time, Yu Xiangwan picked up the chopsticks and pointed at the hot pot that was already boiling.
"Old Five, don't ask everyone one by one like a leader is inspecting us. Just talk while we eat."
I went to Ming Dynasty Hotpot to take a look.
In the hot pot, you can see pieces of meat rolling in the soup, and the aroma is very strong.
Yu Zhiming's mouth was watering and he quickly picked up the chopsticks.
"Let's eat..."
After taking a bite of a piece of meat with more lean meat and less fat, Yu Zhiming discovered that this hot pot restaurant had handled the donkey meat very well.
There is no strange smell at all, and the unique aroma of donkey meat fills the entire mouth, making people unable to stop.
Yu Zhiming ate seven or eight pieces in a row before putting down his chopsticks.
At the same time, he noticed that three men and one woman came to the second floor and sat with Director Cui and his young driver.
Seeing that Director Cui had no intention of bringing them over to meet him, Yu Zhiming did not stand up.
He thought to himself that after he had almost finished eating, he would go over and say hello to Director Cui's friends.
New ingredients in the hot pot include donkey intestines, donkey skin, some mushrooms and vegetables.
While waiting for the soup to boil, Yu Zhiming talked to his third sister about ginseng, American ginseng, and Li Yantian.
After finishing talking to his third sister, Yu Zhiming looked at Qing Ning on the other side and saw that her face was tense and she looked unhappy.
I gave her a piece of cold cut donkey meat with sauce.
"Are you still upset?"
Gu Qingning pursed her lips and said, "What was supposed to be a happy occasion was ruined by something unexpected."
“Unhappy.”
Yu Zhiming advised: "If you are unhappy, you are punishing yourself with the mistakes of others."
"There are four key elements to longevity: an optimistic spirit, a balanced diet, moderate exercise, and a regular lifestyle."
"Being optimistic comes first."
Gu Qingning ate the piece of marinated donkey meat that Yu Zhiming had given her and snorted, "Zhiming, weren't you angry when you failed the postgraduate interview?"
Yu Zhiming's hands felt a little itchy.
He reached out and pressed Qingning's head, ruffling her neat and smooth hair.
"Oh, you're so bad!"
Gu Qingning reached out and patted Yu Zhiming a few times, then busied herself with fixing her hair.
There was a smile on her face...
Although there were some twists and turns in Yu Zhiming and his friends' dinner tonight, they enjoyed the hotpot with great enthusiasm and were quite satisfied.
This underground donkey meat is not just a casual remark. It tastes really different from pork and beef.
The table full of meat and vegetables was almost finished by them in less than an hour.
Just when Yu Zhiming was about to stand up and say hello to Director Cui, he unexpectedly heard someone at that table mention his name.
He couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen attentively.
Then Director Cui's voice rang out, "Want to learn from Dr. Yu?"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
This is a woman's voice.
Then the voice continued, "You know my Xingxuan, Director Cui, so well. She's so absorbed in medicine that she's even given up on her lifelong plans."
"When she heard that Dr. Yu was going to recruit a few young doctors to assist her, she couldn't sit still."
"It's just that we can't communicate with Dr. Yu."
Yu Zhiming heard Director Cui's voice continue, "I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter."
"You may not know how many young doctors in our hospital are eyeing this opportunity."
"The hospital leadership even specifically informed us about this matter and told us not to disturb Dr. Yu's work."
"So now, many people are sitting on the sidelines, waiting for the hospital or Dr. Yu to come up with a plan..."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming immediately gave up the idea of going over to greet him.
Based on the information he had heard, wouldn't he be asking for trouble if he went there now?
Yu Zhiming was thinking about how to reduce his target size and avoid being discovered and recognized by others when he heard a chaotic sound of footsteps.
Then, six or seven people rushed up to the second floor.
The next moment, this group of people walked quickly towards Yu Zhiming's table.
Gu Qingning approached Yu Zhiming and said, "Zhiming, they're from the donkey meat restaurant. The restaurant manager who handled our complaint is among them."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but grin.
Damn it, you came at a really bad time.
As Yu Zhiming was worried, the group of people came closer.
The leader was an old man in his sixties.
He cast his gaze towards Yu Zhiming and Gu Qingning, and said, "Doctor Yu, Miss Gu, and everyone else, I am Ren Libin, the owner of the First-Class Donkey Meat Restaurant."
"I offer my sincerest apology for the restaurant's mistake and disrespect."
Gu Qingning stood up with a stern face.
"Wrong and rude? Boss Ren, are you sure it's your restaurant's fault?"
Ren Libin bowed and replied, "It's our fault."
"Miss Gu, you did book a private room. We reserved room number seven for you."
"only……"
Ren Libin said bitterly, "My uneducated, idle son suddenly brought some friends over tonight."
"They saw that yours was the only room that hadn't been occupied yet, so they took over your room without permission."
"The restaurant manager and the waiter colluded to confuse right and wrong and changed your private room number seven to table number seven in the lobby."
After a pause, Ren Libin bowed again and said, "This is all our fault."
"I apologize and compensate you..."
Gu Qingning interrupted coldly, "Boss Ren, let's not rush into talking about apology and compensation."
"I'm more interested in..."
She asked playfully, "What on earth happened that made you change your previous attitude of refusing to admit your mistakes and suddenly come here to apologize so humbly?"
this……
Ren Libin's forehead was covered with beads of sweat.
"Miss Gu, if I say I have something to ask of Dr. Yu, would you believe me?"
Gu Qingning shook his head and said, "I don't believe it!"
"Boss Ren, if you have to come here for something, you'd better tell the truth."
"Otherwise, the subsequent matters will definitely be ruined."
Ren Libin wiped the sweat from his forehead and showed an expression of struggle and hesitation.
After a while, he seemed to have made a decision and showed a resolute expression.
"I've run the Yipin Donkey Meat Restaurant for twenty-one years and made a lot of money, but my son is a jerk."
"Well, it's better to close the donkey meat restaurant."
Having said that, Ren Libin stood up straight.
"Doctor Yu, Miss Gu, the thing is, half an hour ago, someone entered private room number seven."
"That person discovered that the people eating in the private room were not you, but my son and his cronies."
"After learning the truth, the man flew into a rage and asked us to resolve the matter properly."
"Otherwise, the donkey meat restaurant will be closed down."
Ren Libin added: "That person called our landlord right in front of us."
"The landlord said if we can't meet his demands, we'll be kicked out!"
