Reborn since 2005

"Let's have dinner together tonight?" Yan Xin was stunned for a moment, surprised and happy, "Are you free now?"

Ai Lili said: "There are still a lot of things, but I am not so busy anymore. I am thinking of giving myself a holiday, but I can't let my body wear down."

"Okay," Yan Xin said without any hesitation, "Do you want to eat at home or out? If you want to eat out, I will make a reservation at the restaurant. If you want to eat at home, I will buy groceries now."

"Eat outside," Ellie said. "It's such a hot day, so I won't bother you."

"Say which restaurant you want to go to, and I'll treat you." Yan Xin said.

Ellie named a restaurant and the area it was in.

Of course Yan Xin had no objection.

With his current wealth, he can eat at any restaurant in Yangcheng he wants, and there is no problem of not being able to afford it.

As long as Ellie likes it, he's fine with it.

After a pause, Ai Lili asked again with a smile:

"How about calling your old classmates over so that we can have a more lively meal together?"

Yan Xin was stunned for a moment, a little hesitant, wondering what Ai Lili was thinking.

Ask her: "Why do you want her to go there too?"

Ai Lili smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't fight with your old classmate. I just want to have a meal with her."

Yan Xin smiled awkwardly: "Of course I know that you are not that kind of person. I am just curious as to why you want to have a meal with her."

After a moment of silence, Ai Lili said: "We are all in the same city. From now on we will not see each other again when we look up. There is no need to be so acrimonious. Let's have a meal together and talk about the past things. We are still friends. This will not change the situation." Okay?"

Yan Xin certainly welcomes such an attitude:

"Yes, you're absolutely right. Enemies are easy to resolve but not easy to make. It's not a conflict between ourselves and the enemy. Once we let it go, it'll be fine. Then I'll tell her."

"Say it." Ellie said.

After thinking about it, he added: "I have to make it clear to you in advance. What I mean is that we can be friends in the future. It does not mean that I have to serve you with her in the future. Don't have such thoughts. Don't worry about it anymore. Regarding the past, this is the limit of what I can do, so don’t expect anything else."

Yan Xin said quickly: "Don't worry, I won't force you to do that kind of thing."

Although there is a little bit of regret, you can't be so greedy. It's enough to be able to turn over the past, which is an unexpected blessing.

At Feng Xi's place, the two of them had met a while ago, which could be regarded as a rehash of the past.

Xiao Shiyu also agreed to attend their wedding at the end of the year.

Now Ai Lili also said that bygones are bygones, and this matter is considered to be in the past.

It is obviously better for Xiao Shiyu to let go of her worries and face the future with a more relaxed attitude.

At that moment, he called Xiao Shiyu again and told him about the matter.

Xiao Shiyu was a little surprised and a little nervous, but she still agreed to have dinner together in the evening.

Yan Xin went to the restaurant early and booked a private room.

A little after six o'clock, Xiao Shiyu came over.

She is the boss and can freely decide her own working hours.

She is so busy every day because the company has many things waiting for her to deal with every day. If she stays in the company to deal with these things, the company can run more smoothly.

Only she has the final decision-making power. It is much more efficient for her to handle those matters personally than to let her subordinates handle it.

But now there are more important things to do, and she can only put down the company's affairs temporarily.

Although the company has only been open for more than a month, the team members have been following her for a long time. Some things can still be handled when she is not around. At most, the efficiency is just a little lower. It would not exist without her. Things that don't work.

This time it was Ellie who took the initiative to release kindness, and of course she had to catch this wave of kindness.

The first thing that can reflect her goodwill is to come as early as possible and not let people wait for her.

So as soon as six o'clock arrived, she got off work on time and drove over.

At this time, she was still a little worried - it would be a bit bad if Ellie came earlier than her.

That's not to say that it's completely impossible.

On the way here, she thought about how she would respond if such a situation happened.

I have thought about my words of apology, and even have a rough idea of ​​what kind of expression I will use and what tone I will use when speaking.

When we finally arrived, we found that Yan Xin was the only one in the private room, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

——Although I have a draft in mind, being late is a very rude thing and will make people feel unhappy.

It is of course best to come earlier to avoid being rude.

He also asked Yan Xin: "Mr. Ai, hasn't she come yet?"

Yan Xin nodded: "You just sent me a message 2 minutes earlier, saying you were off work and were getting ready to leave. It shouldn't take long for you to come over."

A few minutes after Xiao Shiyu sat down, Ai Lili came over.

As soon as the door opened, Xiao Shiyu stood up quickly and greeted Ai Lili with a smile:

"Hello, Mr. Ai, long time no see."

Ai Lili was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "My family, there is no need to be so polite. You can just call me Sister Lili as before. Don't call me Mr. Ai, it's too awkward."

"Sister Lily." Xiao Shiyu immediately changed her words.

The attitude is very humble.

Ai Lili felt a little helpless, and at the same time she also felt a little pity for her in her heart: "Why did she put herself in such a humble position? As for that?"

I feel quite sad.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little angry in my heart, and glared at Yan Xin.

It was this scumbag who brought them to this state.

Yan Xin felt her gaze and could only smile awkwardly and said:
"I'm just waiting for you to come over. Now that everyone is here, we can order."

Call the waiter and ask Ellie to order first.

Ai Lili took the menu and handed it to Xiao Shiyu first:

"Xiao Shi, please order first."

Xiao Shiyu smiled and said, "I don't know much about Cantonese food, and I don't know what is delicious and what is not. Sister Lili, you are an expert in this field, so you should order some."

Ellie has already given in once, and she doesn't want to give in. One is pretentious, and the other is a waste of time.

So I took the menu and ordered the dishes one by one.

Every time you order a dish, you also ask Xiao Shiyu if he likes it. Only after getting a definite answer do you make a decision.

As for Yan Xin, it was not within the scope of her inquiry.

Of course, she didn't need to ask Yan Xin.Having lived with Yan Xin for such a long time, she already knew what he liked to eat and what he didn't like to eat.

It seemed that he didn't care about Yan Xin's opinion at all, but in fact, every dish he ordered was Yan Xin's favorite dish.

After ordering four dishes, he handed the menu to Yan Xin:

"Look at what you like to eat and order some."

Yan Xin ordered four more dishes, then handed the menu to the waiter and waited for the dishes to be served.

The food was not served so quickly, and the three of them entered chat mode.

Regarding this ice-breaking trip, Xiao Shiyu and Ai Lili were actually a little embarrassed, because they did have some unpleasant things happen before.

Although I didn't break my heart, there was still a thorn in my heart after all.

But after meeting each other, I soon discovered that as long as I wasn't embarrassed, no one would be embarrassed.

It is absolutely impossible to say that the relationship is the same as before. After all, the thorn is still there and has not been pulled out.

However, there is still no problem with plastic, and it can be made to look nice on the surface.

They exchanged greetings and expressed condolences to each other, just like good sisters.

Of course Yan Xin can see that the plastic relationship between them is not true love.

But this is progress - no matter what, it is better than fighting each other when they meet, and it is better than keeping a straight face and speaking sarcastically.

Well, he didn't mean to offend Feng Xi here, he just thought about it casually without going too far.

Xiao Shiyu asked about Ailili's work situation, and Ailili also asked about Xiao Shiyu's work situation.

The common feeling between the two of them is that they are too tired from work now and have too many things to deal with. They feel that there is not enough time to go to work every day, and they wish they had 48 hours a day.

Yan Xin was embarrassed to interrupt on such a topic.

Anyone who says more than a few words will be considered to be showing off his superiority - because this guy has nothing to do all day long and knows how to ask others to work overtime to help him make money. He is at home, lying on the bed with the air conditioner blowing and enjoying himself. He is simply a Evil capitalist.

At this time, he could just listen silently. If he spoke up, it would be disrespectful to the two women who were busy at work.

As they talked, they actually found some common topics and some resonances.

The awkward atmosphere of disobedience before gradually dissipated.

After the first dish they ordered came, the three of them started eating.

After all the dishes were served, the waiter closed the door and left.

Ai Lili continued chatting with Xiao Shiyu.

Their current topic has reached how to cover the takeout service provided by Shiyu Company to the temporary office of Fengxiang Real Estate Company in Yangcheng.

Ai Lili's team is quite busy now. They are having meetings and discussions during meal time, and they all have lunch boxes delivered to them.

But they only cooperated with a fast food restaurant, and the choices were very limited. They only had the same few dishes every day, and they were tired of eating them.

Now there are hundreds of large and small restaurants that cooperate with Shiyu, with many choices and relatively affordable prices, so Ai Lili really hopes that this service can cover there.

Xiao Shiyu didn't have such a plan originally. What she wanted to develop next was another area.

But after Ellie expressed her wish, she didn't hesitate at all and said that she would develop in that area next, and within ten days at most, the food delivery service there would be launched.

Now her team has accumulated a lot of experience, and Shiyu has become somewhat famous in the small circle here. As long as she is willing to pay the cost of expansion, she can still get the business there relatively quickly.

At least in terms of finding partners, there isn’t much of a problem. A lot of small restaurants are willing to cooperate with them.

If we just put aside the original plan and work in an area that is still relatively unfamiliar, the cost will be much higher.

But she still decided to do this.

Some things can be calculated with money, and some things cannot be calculated with money.

Obviously, doing business in this area is not so suitable for calculating money.

To satisfy Ellie, this is what she needs to do well, and it is more important than money - at least more important than the extra costs.

Anyway, future business will cover the entire Yangcheng area, so it’s not impossible to do that area first.

Having settled this matter, Ai Lili was quite happy.

She didn't think this was exploiting Xiao Shiyu, but thought it was a win-win situation.

Xiao Shiyu's company gets business, and her team gets better catering services, which benefits both parties.

We ate and chatted for more than an hour after a meal.

A total of more than 2000 yuan was spent, and Xiao Shiyu paid the bill.

Yan Xin was originally prepared to pay the bill, but when he went to pay the bill after the meal, he realized that Xiao Shiyu had already paid the bill quietly by taking advantage of the opportunity to go to the bathroom midway.

Knowing this, Ai Lili felt a little sorry and glared at Yan Xin again.

The three of them didn't need to care about the little meal money, but having Xiao Shiyu pay for it made Ai Lili feel a little embarrassed and always felt like she was bullying others.

But in fact, she really didn't have such thoughts this time. She just wanted to rewrite the past and came with good intentions.

In her opinion, Yan Xin should pay for this meal.

As a result, Xiao Shiyu quietly bought it.

I can only blame Yan Xin for not paying the bill earlier.

After coming out of the restaurant, Xiao Shiyu consciously got into her car first and said to Ai Lili:
"Sister Lily, I have something to do at my company. I want to go over there, so I won't be with you. We'll have dinner together next time if we have a chance."

These words express an attitude - Yan Xin belongs to Ai Lili tonight, and she has no intention of competing.

Ellie was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't say anything.

Moreover, she really hopes that Yan Xin can stay with her tonight.

I don’t want to be modest about this.

I could only smile and wave to her:
"See you later!"

Standing there and watching Xiao Shiyu drive away, he said to Yan Xin next to him: "I've never seen you before. I said I wanted to treat someone to dinner, but she ended up paying the bill."

Yan Xin had some grievances: "I was originally planning to pay for it myself. Who would have thought that she would pay for it secretly?"

Ellie covered her face with her hands: "You make me so embarrassed like this."

"What's so embarrassing about this?" Yan Xin disagreed, "She is also expressing her apology to you, so you can just accept it."

"But I feel that this matter has passed, and no one owes anyone. There is no need for this." Ellie said.

Yan Xin said: "Maybe she feels she owes you."

Ellie was stunned for a moment.

After a while, he kicked Yan Xin again: "It's all the good deeds of a scumbag like you!" (End of Chapter)
