As project assistants, Xu Ran and Su Xiaolu mainly assist in handling the desired projects in the hands of other project leaders, and they can also learn more from their old colleagues.
However, the old employees were not slow in handing over. Some projects were already halfway through and still needed to write reports, so Xu Ran and Su Xiaolu spent the whole afternoon flipping through information and looking up some past affairs of Group A.
After work ended at five o'clock, Xu Ran was about to clock in and leave when team leader Huang suddenly appeared and asked everyone to go out to eat together. He also stated that he was treating the guests and wanted to formally welcome the two new employees.
Someone is treating me to a treat, and my colleague, who has nothing to do, happily accepts the invitation.
When Su Xiaolu heard what Team Leader Huang said later about welcoming them, she couldn't refuse and could only accept it.
Xu Ran wanted to refuse, because there was no way he would have to socialize on the first day of work, but Team Leader Huang had already welcomed him by name, so he really couldn't go.
After get off work, everyone came to a private restaurant. Team leader Huang was obviously a regular customer. He took orders without any fuss and ordered them. He suddenly raised his head and asked everyone: "So everyone drinks at the bar?"
Seeing that no one refused, he quickly looked at Su Xiaolu and said with a smile: "Xiao Su, do you want to drink?"
"Ah...?" Su Xiaolu was a little embarrassed, but she still said bravely: "It's okay, I can drink a little..."
"What about Xiao Xu?"
Xu Ran showed an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, I took cephalosporin."
When the colleagues at the dinner table heard this, their faces suddenly stiffened slightly, and the originally lively dinner table suddenly became quiet.
"I'm really sorry. I had a cold today and I did take some cold medicine. I will definitely have a drink with Team Leader Huang next time I have a chance." Xu Ran still had an apologetic expression, but he was calm and indifferent, and did not feel that he was embarrassing at all.
Team leader Huang was the first to return his expression and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay. Since Xiao Xu has a cold, forget it! Come on, come on, let's drink!"
Everyone at the dinner table had different expressions, but most of the colleagues didn't take it seriously. But Su Xiaolu's beautiful face frowned slightly, and she lightly kicked Xu Ran with her shoe under the dining table, as if to remind him of something.
.
Of course Xu Ran is not a fool, and he certainly understands wine table etiquette, but he really can't drink. This is a very strange thing.
In the last life, he followed the project leader and drank spicy food. What kind of good wine has he not drank? Not to mention a huge amount, but one person can still stand up to three or four normal people.
But now Xu Ran really can't drink. If others can't drink, they can say that they are allergic to alcohol, but Xu Ran will have physical problems if he drinks just one drink. To put it bluntly, he is drunk.
In the past, he had seen people getting drunk after seeing people in books or on TV, and thought it was impossible. He didn't understand it until this happened to him.
In order to relieve stress during college, Xu Ran tried to buy some wine and have a drink, but after just one drink, her face turned red and she fell drunk at the barbecue stall...
It stands to reason that this would not be the case with Xu Ran's physique. After all, his three dimensions have improved a lot. Then Xu Ran guessed that his physique was too good and he absorbed things quickly, which also caused the alcohol to be absorbed as soon as it entered the body, so he got drunk quickly.
.
Of course, this is just Xu Ran's guess. As for whether it is the case or not, he doesn't care so much.
Anyway, if you get drunk and get into trouble, then you won’t drink.
He will work in Chifeng in the future. Although he did not give Team Leader Huang face at this time, his work will depend on his ability. As long as his role is big enough, this small matter of human relations is not worth mentioning.
Xu Ran smiled lightly and glanced at Su Xiaolu. She didn't expect that this guy who was madly against her and bullied her at school would still care about her?
After the food and wine were served, the dinner table immediately became lively again, and Xu Ran's "cephalosporin" was forgotten early.
Everyone at the dinner table respected me and I respected you, but Xu Ran was the only one who was very indifferent, holding a cup of tea and sipping it.
Obviously this dinner was nominally for him and Su Xiaolu, but he felt like an outsider.
But Su Xiaolu was not so lucky.
After she agrees to have a few drinks, the problem will definitely not be solved by a few glasses of wine. This is also an old problem at the wine table.
Many colleagues toasted to Su Xiaolu crazily in the name of welcoming new colleagues.
Su Xiaolu obviously didn't want to drink but she forced herself. Soon her whole face turned red and her eyes started to wander.
Halfway through the meal, Xu Ran was already looking for an excuse to leave. She had been socializing with the group and had not yet gone home to watch a few episodes of TV series with Zhao Yiyi for fun.
But Xu Ran saw that Su Xiaolu's condition was not optimistic. Compared with other people at the dinner table, he and Su Xiaolu were acquaintances. Although she was disliked all day long at school, with the lowest relationship as a schoolmate, she couldn't be so helpless.
Leave her behind conscientiously.
Xu Ran didn't care what Su Xiaolu thought, but at least he still had a good impression of Su Xiaolu.
In the past three years, he and Su Xiaolu had been regular visitors to the university scholarship, and he did not have the luxury to appreciate people who studied seriously and worked hard.
Although he didn't know why Su Xiaolu hated him so much...
It seems that some people also hope that Su Xiaolu will be drunk. Only halfway through the meal, she will be so dizzy that she can hardly stand up.
Good-looking people look very beautiful when they are drunk. The feeling of slightly squinting eyes and soft breath makes the male colleagues at the dinner table extremely fascinated.
After finally drinking two more drinks, Su Xiaolu couldn't hold it anymore and lay drunk on the dining table. Other colleagues laughed when they saw this and continued to drink their own.
Seeing the stubborn child collapse, Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got up and excused himself from everyone at the dinner table, saying some kind words and thanking Team Leader Huang for today's treat.
Everyone didn't care too much when they saw this. Although Xu Ran didn't drink, this trivial matter had long been forgotten.
When Xu Ran took Su Xiaolu's arm and wanted to leave, other colleagues couldn't help but laughed and said, "Xiao Xu, Su Xiaolu and you are alumni after all, so don't steal it!"
Xu Ran smiled lightly and shook his head, not taking their teasing seriously.
After dragging Su Xiaolu to her feet, she was in a daze. Her full lips were pursed with a few strands of hair, her eyes were squinted and she was very confused. She almost fell down after being dragged for a few steps.
Don't force yourself to drink if you can't. Drinking etiquette also requires politeness and self-awareness. It doesn't matter if you ignore someone who really keeps trying to persuade you to drink.
This kid is still innocent.
Hanging Su Xiaolu's small bag around his neck, he squatted slightly and pulled Su Xiaolu's whole body behind his back. Then he lifted his knees with both hands, and Xu Ran carried her whole body on his back.
This clean and neat technique made others stunned. It was obvious that many drunkards had gone through this experience...
Su Xiaolu's chest was filled with waves. It didn't hit Xu Ran's back, but it touched his heart.
It doesn't look like much from the outside, but I didn't expect it to be more interesting than that guy Zhao Yiyi...
Under the watchful eyes of his colleagues, Xu Ran left the hotel with Su Xiaolu on his back, while other colleagues ignored him and started drinking.
