19. Changing Yu Xi
What happened last night was a series of blows for Zhong Qing, so that she didn't sleep well all night and went to work the company with big dark circles the next day.
Unfortunately, the people in the company did not love her as much as her family, especially Director Li's inexplicable little hostility, which made her cumbersome. After a long time, she could almost stand and fall asleep. After finally getting to the lunch break, Zhong Qing didn't want to eat. She just wanted to find a place to sleep.
Unfortunately, the lounge has long been empty, and the company has not specially arranged rooms for these small roles. Therefore, the bitter Zhong Qing can only continue to drag her tired body and slowly approach the canteen.
The special dishes in the restaurant are comparable to those made by star chefs. They are delicious and have separate comfortable seats. All white-collar workers with a little money will choose to eat at this window. For economic reasons, ordinary small employees still eat at ordinary windows most of the time.
However, Zhong Qing is not a person who is willing to wrong herself in life. Besides, there is no need to change her instincts in order to pursue deliberate ordinary people since she was a child. Probably, she is the only one in the whole company who chooses the best package.
Irre noting other people's eyes, Zhong Qing just sat in her seat and ate delicious food. With a fork, the most expensive signature dish in this restaurant, the secret abalone, was put into her mouth.
It is said that the chef who makes this dish is also an international cook hired by the company from outside at a high price. Naturally, the taste is highly guaranteed. The price of this dish is not enough, but there are not many people in the company who can eat this dish, and Zhong Qing happens to be one of the few people.
Well, the taste hasn't changed, and it's still delicious. Zhong Qing ate by herself and didn't look at the faces of the people around her at all. Although she didn't want to be so conspicuous, this was the only dish she was used to eating.
Probably because of the enjoyment of taste, the previous fatigue has also subsided a lot, but this sobriety means that I remember everything last night again.
She really can't figure out why such a person would say such a thing? Are you joking about yourself? It's unlikely that the person who even my grandfather praises is by no means so vulgar! But... What the hell is going on!
Zuo Hanze, it's all your fault. It makes me nervous to say something like that. Zhong Qing, who couldn't find the answer, once again put the wrong head on the head, and the score was reduced again!
"Sunny?" Yu Xi, who had just entered the restaurant from the outside, saw the familiar figure sitting on the most comfortable sofa. What was placed in front of him was such a dense abalone.
It's this dish again. Yu Xi saw it clearly, but there was a burst of disgust in his heart. Yes, the dish that Zhong Qing likes is exactly what Yu Xi hates the most, not because of her dislike of abalone itself, but because of the person who eats abalone.
Why, why is Zhong Qing, whose position is not high and his salary is not high, but she can have an abalone banquet every day? And she has a high job and a higher salary, but she can't do whatever she wants about these high-end dishes.
The terrible jealousy of women, especially the jealousy accumulated over the years, has already taken root and sprouted, and has gradually grown to a point that cannot be ignored. And she has been forcing herself to compare with her, but every time she loses miserably.
But now her father is still working under the secretary of the municipal party committee, and it is not easy for her to completely tear her face with Zhong Qing, so even if she hates it, she will still disguise herself as usual: "Ah, Qingqing, you eat this abalone again. It seems that you really prefer this dish!"
She smiled and looked at Zhong Qing with gentle eyes. How did she look like the closeness between sisters? Zhong Qing doesn't doubt it. Anyway, she doesn't have time to think about anything else now. She is annoyed by the words of a certain leader!
Hearing Yu Xi's voice, Zhong Qing looked up, then continued to eat a piece and replied casually, "Alas, the company's dish is just like this. This dish is good."
The honest answer seemed to be sarcastic in other people's ears. The understated words made Yu Xi feel like a cat scratching, and his heart was full of hatred.
Zhong Qing, are you mocking me? No matter how hard I try, can't I reach you? I have to say that Director Li's words had a lot of influence on her that day.
"You, don't be picky anymore! You should know that the small restaurant of Wenren Group is at the level of a five-star hotel outside. You can eat this little salary every day. I don't know how many people envy you. You are still picky!"
However, maybe the previous mood has not been well restrained, so that this voice that usually sounds very cordial. At this moment, in Zhong Qing's ear, it is a little deliberate... What is it? Oh, by the way, it seems to be a little sour.
Yes, Zhong Qing felt this way, but when she saw Yu Xi's constant expression, she felt a little guilty. How could she think of her so much? This is a sister who grew up with herself!
Shrugging her shoulders, Zhong Qing said that she was very helpless. Her salary was indeed not enough for small employees to eat and drink like this, but it was enough for Zhong Qing, just because she was Zhong Qing!
"Would you like to eat together? How many more dishes do we have to eat together for a long time?
Seeing that Yu Xi just came in from the outside and didn't seem to have eaten yet, I remember that they have never eaten as intimately as before since they worked, so I suggest this. Of course, she also thought that Yu Xi would not agree, and always felt that Yu Xi had a faint sense of alienation now.
Did she change, or did she change herself? Zhong Qing doesn't understand.
"Okay," I didn't expect Yu Xi to agree with little hesitation, which really surprised her a little, but she was still a little happy. Zhong Qing, who had no brothers or sisters since childhood, hoped to have a companion of about her age.
"But it used to be your treat. Is it fair for me to change this time?" Yu Xi sat down rudely, picked up the menu and ordered two dishes, and then handed the menu to Zhong Qing to choose another one.
"Huh?" Zhong Qing was stunned. It has become a habit to invite Yu Xi to dinner. It's really a little uncomfortable to invite her this time, but before she refused, Yu Xi spoke first.
"I'll make it this time. Don't grab it with me!" How can that intimate appearance make people doubt her feelings for Zhong Qing? Even Zhong Qing believed it.
Thinking about it, Yu Xi is not what she used to be. Her job is better and her salary is higher than her. Yes, she can no longer treat Yu Xi as the careful person who followed her before.
Remembering of her old ideas, Zhong Qing was a little embarrassed and didn't agree with her at the moment. She nodded and agreed: "Well, then I won't be polite--"
Zhong Qing's rudeness was really rude. She picked up the menu handed over and really started cooking rudely. Unfortunately, Zhong Qing, who has never checked the salary card, obviously doesn't understand that money is not easy to get. She waved her hand, drew a tick on several dishes, then closed it and handed it to the waiter.
Yu Xi sat opposite Zhong Qing. Because Zhong Qing stood up when she took the menu, she couldn't see what she ordered, but when she remembered the level of her usual order, the meat suddenly hurt.
Waiting for Zhong Qing, sooner or later I won't be so hypocritical towards you!
No one knows what her plan is except Yu Xi herself, just like no one knows how strong her idea is. At least, you must surpass the person who has been suppressing you since childhood, and you must live better than Zhong Qing! Even if she can't do it herself, she must rely on a person who can!
Zhong Qing didn't know this. As soon as the dishes were served, Yu Xidan's painful eyes made her move. However, the action was casual, as if it was just a regular dish in front of her, which made Yu Xi angry again.
The dish is not as delicious as abalone, and Zhong Qing is not very interested in it. She is just reluctant to eat it. On the way, as if she felt some kind eyes, Zhong Qing raised her head and saw Yu Xi's strange expression. She was puzzled and asked, "Huh? Yu Xi, won't you eat?"
"Ah, oh, it's nothing. It depends on how you eat. Why don't you like it? Yes, what you used to eat is more than a hundred times better than these dishes.
Yu Xi asked sourly in his tone. This time, he was as dull as Zhong Qing and understood the meaning, and then he was a little embarrassed. Of course, she doesn't feel any deliberate suspicion, but feels that today's Yu Xi is a little strange, as if she has a lot of dissatisfaction with her.
However, Zhongqing searched all over her mind and couldn't find out when she had done something to make her have a grudge with herself, as if she had always been like this in her memory, right? Obviously, Yu Xi used to say that he was good!
Suddenly, there seemed to be something scratching in her mind, and her thinking seemed to be **. Zhong Qing found that after work, Yu Xi seemed to have changed, no longer always following her as before, and no longer centered on herself.
Although she doesn't think she is worth doing this, such a rapid change, and it seems to be developing in the opposite direction, which makes her have to think more. Even, she was a little suspicious. Was it that Yu Xi didn't want to do that at that time, but now she is finally relieved and naturally estranged from herself?
Not to mention, Zhong Qing's feeling is really accurate, but she just guesses like this, but she doesn't think so. After all, she doesn't need it, does she? Children who don't know the suffering of the world are so protected that they don't understand the complexity of these people, or they are unwilling to accept such results.
"No, I just ate a little full, so I can't eat too much."
Zhong Qing will not say her guess, but just found a valid reason to prevaricate. Intuitively, today's meal has other meanings.
(It's a little entangled now, but it's time to write about their married life in a few days. Try to make this part interesting, (*^__^*) hee...)
