Chapter 47 Part 1 - Seven Year's Itch

The next day, although Jiang Qi's body was about to fall apart and he is very sleepy, but his mood was very good .

Good mood will lead to good work efficiency . Jiang Qi thinks that he may finish his work ahead of time today . So he can't help but to smile and smile .

Soon it was lunch hour and suddenly Ke Yan's call came in: “I’ll go to play ball in the afternoon . I'll probably finish in the evening and went straight for dinner outside . Tonight you at home to eat first . Do not have to wait for me . ”

Jiang Qi knew Ke Yan's definition of playing ball equivalent to golfing and his meaning on dinner same as business discussion . “Okay, I know . Try to drink less later . ”

“En”

When Jiang Qi got off work, he walked out and saw managers of various departments at the entrance of company . He went ahead and asked, "What are you doing? Waiting for someone?”

Fan Teng happen to be standing right in front of Jiang Qi: “Don’t be silly . Didn't we set up a date for a dinner at the Royal Tower together tonight, ba?”

Jiang Qi tried to remember . . . hmm . . . it seems like such thing exist .

The Imperial Building is a top-class restaurant . Although it is a restaurant, it is very large . It is also a bit like a hotel . In addition to having a meal, there is room for guests to rest . It is estimated they considered about their drunken guests when they built the place . Decorated with antiques, the dishes are also very delicious . The dishes are also very delicate, just like the royal dishes in the palace, but the only bad thing is that all the dishes came in small portion . With only two mouthfuls the food finished left only some of the carved decorations . Even if the plates were small, but it is expensive .

People used to say : Scarcity increases value .

TLN: wù yǐ xī wéi guì - Scarcity increases value .

So even if it is very expensive with small portion, there are still many people will come to enjoy . Most of this places had become gathering venue for wealthy people .

However, Jiang Qi did not like to come here, because when he first came with Ke Yan, he ordered a table full of these small plates . But after the dishes were finished, Jiang Qi felt that his stomach was still not full . At the end of the calculations, the staggering bill brought by the server, made Jiang Qi scared . Did the server made a mistake with his calculations ah? The bill was catching up to his monthly salary . Why should he come here and spent his whole salary but still came out hungry, ne?

Okay he admits . In fact that day the bill was paid by Ke Yan but he still feels depressed thinking about it . That's why from that time, whenever someone invited him to eat, he never recommended them to come here .

“ Hey . . . you shouldn't really have forgotten about it, right . ”

“Of course not, I remember . ” Jiang Qi refused to admit .

“ See you acting this way, know you forgot about it, ba . Later we have to fine you to drink two more cups . ”

“ I have not forgotten . ”

“ Just give it up ah Manager Jiang . I see you had truly forgotten about this dinner, right . Even if you remember, you still have to drink two more cups as your punishment of being late . ” Wang Pu interrupted .

Jiang Qi surrendered . After all his lies has lose its meaning .

“Hey, Manager Wang came out . ”

Jiang Qi turned to look . Wang Si Qi walked out of the company with her little bag, and then looked at them at the corner of her eyes before treating them as air . They saw her leave in silence .

When Wang Si Qi went away at a distance, someone only dared to voice out: " If only Manager Wang would care to join us to drink then it will become even greater . "

Someone in the group ridiculed: “ Do you dare to stop and ask her, ba? I am not . ”

“ Yeah, you're right . I have been working in this company for so many years but she treats me like I didn't even existed in her eyes . ”

“ Hey, there's no way ba . People has such a great beauty . Her ability to work also quite strong . Just in a few years, she can sit in the manager's position . Don't you know how fierce the competition for that seat . She still have the means to move upward, indicates her resourcefulness, ba .

“ How did you know she didn't became this great because of sleeping around?”

These words were indecent, leaving everyone stunned silence . Then Jiang Qi opened his mouth: “ Impossible . If something like that happened, Ke Yan would have dismissed her earlier . ”

Jiang Qi's words succeeded in breaking up the silence . The person responsible on the indecent statement, Huang Shi Xiong quickly realized his improper remarks and echoed Jiang Qi's words: “ Yes . . yes it should be . Our president is so strict and terrifying, it's widely known to all . ”

“ Yeah . . . it's true . ” Lin Zheng Rui followed and change the topic: "But, Jiang Qi ah, you are quite courageous . Even president's name can be called directly . I have been working in the company for so many years, but still unable to call it . ”

Jiang Qi smile . This is the reason he likes to become friends with Lin Zheng Rui . Although he likes to flatter and the courage is so small, but sometimes he is most straightforward .

Everyone arrived at the Imperial Building . The reservation was made for a private room before, so there was no need to queue up in the lobby waiting for someone else to finish the meal before they can get a space . Now they just need to enter .

The Imperial Building is famous . As long as the place is famous plus delicious taste of food, there will be more people coming to eat . Because there's a lot of demand, people have to book the private room early . Even if the room was booked, because there are too many demands, the private rooms will be canceled if they don't arrive on time even if they just two minutes late .

What is this called… Jiang Qi trying to sum up the experience in one go ~~~ to wait a long time, to spend a lot of money, to eat but still hungry, to dig your own suffering .
