Song Jia looked at the itinerary beside the table. His schedule for the past few days was very full, and he had almost no free time. He looked away and replied, “There’s always time.”
“Then let’s go to the Xiangxi buffet barbeque shop tomorrow night. See you there!” Lu Zhen hung up and thought of something. She called Xiaoxiao. “Xiaoxiao, let me tell you something.” Lu Zhen took a deep breath. “I’m leaving the company.”
On the other end of the phone, Xiaoxiao was very shocked at first, but in the end, her tone became very happy. “Sister Zhenzhen, are you really leaving? That’s great! The company doesn’t treat you well at all. You should have left long ago.”
Lu Zhen smiled and said, “What about you? Do you want to continue staying in the company? You’ve been by my side for so many years and are considered a very experienced assistant. If you stay in the company, you might be promoted to a manager.”
Xiaoxiao panicked and shouted, “Sister Zhenzhen, what are you talking about? The reason why I came to this company is because of you. Now that you’re gone, why should I continue to stay? As long as you don’t chase me away, I’ll go wherever you go. Don’t even think about shaking me off! Hmph!”
Lu Zhen felt warm inside. She had long guessed that Xiaoxiao would say that.
Lu Zhen thought for a moment and said, “But after I leave the company, my resources might not be as good as before. I don’t have much savings either. I might not even be able to pay the team’s salary.”
“I don’t care about any of that.” Xiaoxiao’s tone was very firm. “I just want to stay by your side. It doesn’t matter if I don’t have a single cent.”
“You don’t have to say it so tragically. It’s as if you can only live a hard life with me.” Lu Zhen smiled and her tone became firm again. “Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. We’ll definitely get better in the future. I’ll become the number one superstar in the entertainment industry and bring you to earn more and more money!”
“Alright! Then I want to become the chief assistant of the number one superstar in the entertainment industry!”
“Can’t you have some ambition, Xiaoxiao?
A relaxed smile bloomed on Lu Zhen’s face, and her eyes were filled with anticipation for the future.
On the bustling commercial street, the entrance of a barbeque shop was filled with people. The queue went all the way to the main street.
Lu Zhen got out of the car and said to Song Jia and Bei Mu, “We’ll enter from the back door. The boss is my fan and has already reserved a seat for us.”
“Is this how female celebrities are treated?” Bei Mu was very envious. He asked again, “Does this meal not cost money?
Lu Zhen glared at him. “I’m not that shameless. It’s already good enough that I don’t have to queue!”
The three of them entered the second floor of the barbeque shop through the back door. The barbeque shop owner had specially reserved a seat by the window for them. There were fewer people around, and they could see the river outside.
After the fresh ingredients were served, Lu Zhen looked at the menu and asked for a few more bottles of wine.
Song Jia looked at her suspiciously. “You know how to drink?”
“This is peach blossom wine brewed by the boss himself. It’s not alcoholic. It’s okay.” Lu Zhen handed the menu to the attendant. She was in a very good mood today. It was not enough to just eat roasted meat. She also wanted to drink.
After a while, the attendant brought a few bottles of wine over. The three of them ate the roasted meat and drank the mellow peach blossom wine. Not long after, Bei Mu and Lu Zhen’s faces began to turn red, especially Lu Zhen’s. Her eyes seemed to be unable to focus.
“Stop drinking.” Song Jia wanted to take the wine glass from Lu Zhen’s hand, but Lu Zhen finished the wine in one gulp.
Song Jia had a headache. Although the alcohol content was not high, Lu Zhen clearly could not hold her liquor well. She would get drunk if she drank so much at once.
Bei Mu, who was also a little drunk, also began to go crazy. He tapped his wine glass and said, “Let’s play Truth or Dare! You have to answer the truth. If you don’t dare to play Dare, you have to bark like a puppy. How about that?” Song Jia glared at Bei Mu and was about to stop him when Lu Zhen shouted,
“Alright! Don’t beg for mercy later!”
“I won’t lose!” Bei Mu immediately retorted, “Don’t think that you’re a girl that I’ll let you off easy. I won’t let you win!”
Song Jia, who had no interest in this game at all, was forced to join it.
It just so happened that the three of them were almost full. They cleared the table and Bei Mu took out an empty wine bottle and placed it on the table. He said, “Whoever faces the bottle later will be punished. The person who raises the question is the person who was punished last time.”
The first time, the bottle was switched to Lu Zhen’s side. Because she was the first to be punished, she could choose her own target.
Lu Zhen immediately pointed at Song Jia.
Bei Mu was a little disappointed and looked at Song Jia gloomily..
