The engagement ring, which weighed three carats, shone brightly under the lights of the hotel, and was dazzlingly white. It seemed like the brightest star under the black sky.
I don't know if she did it on purpose, but the finger with the ring on it always moved in the direction of Xiang Xiaochuang inadvertently.
"A diamond is forever, and a diamond will last forever." This classic advertising line appeared in Xiang Xiaochuang's mind. His heart gradually became bitter, and his smooth and slender fingers were tightly interlocked under the dining table.
The knuckles are all sore.
After finally looking away, the waiter had already walked over with the dishes they ordered.
"Hey, I didn't order this." Xiang Xiaochuang watched the waiter serve one dish after another, and looked at Fang Tianwei in confusion.
"I didn't order either." Fang Tianwei shrugged.
"Mr. Du specially added something for Miss." The waiter bowed politely and explained, "This one is Alaskan cod fillet, and this one is Hawaiian salad. Please enjoy it slowly, Miss."
Xiang Xiaochuang was dumbfounded for a moment, quite dumbfounded. Fang Tianwei was secretly amused that the president of Du University was acting more and more out of the norm.
"Am I a big eater?" Xiang Xiaochuang murmured. When he looked back, even the ring was no longer so dazzling.
"The president wants to feed you into a pig..." Fang Tianwei laughed, "Since it is his wish, you can just eat it and there is no need to be polite to him anymore."
"Of course I'm not polite, I just think it's too much to eat and it's just a waste." Xiang Xiaochuang was indeed not polite and started eating the main meal she ordered, a piece of pasta.
Fang Tianwei cut the steak: "Actually, pasta is not the specialty of this hotel. You should eat steak. It is famous throughout New York City."
"No, it's all bloodshot, I won't eat it." Xiang Xiaochuang refused instinctively.
"If it's not bloodshot, it's old, so what's the taste?" Fang Tianwei stared at her, watching her pick up the noodles, and actually ate them with relish.
"My stomach is not good." Xiang Xiaochuang came up with the most practical trick.
"Oh, yes." Fang Tianwei immediately agreed, "If you have a weak stomach, don't eat these raw things. However, you can ask the waiter to cook them a little longer, although he will look at you like a monster."
Xiang Xiaochuang shrugged: "You also said that if it doesn't have blood streaks, it won't taste good. Why should I eat it! This pasta is actually not delicious. There is no such thing as our Chinese Yunsi thin noodles.
?Even if it costs five yuan a bowl of beef ramen, it is more fragrant and delicious than this."
Fang Tianwei just took a sip of red wine and almost spit it out before he heard her finish. He hurriedly covered his mouth with a napkin, but he coughed violently.
Xiang Lanchuang frowned: "What's wrong? Could it be that you were infected by me?"
His cough seemed to be worse than his own.
Fang Tianwei picked up the ice water on the side, took a sip, and then sighed: "Xiaochuang, what you said makes people really hard to get angry. Comparing the highest-end hotel in New York with a ramen restaurant is not a realistic comparison.
Do you want to kill people?"
"I'm just telling the truth. Except for the lobster, which is well cooked, I don't think the other dishes are better than our Chinese home-cooked dishes. For example, this salad, except for the special ingredients, is nothing special."
"Chinese food is world-famous, so Chinese restaurants in New York are doing pretty good business. However, if you go there to eat there, you will be disappointed."
"Why? Because it's not authentic?"
"It has been completely improved. The rice and fried skewers don't taste like that at all. Except for the food and smell in Chinatown, the food is good, but the price is very expensive. Ordinary Americans can't afford it!"
Xiang Xiaochuang stuck out his tongue: "Even the Americans can't afford it, so I'd better go back to China to eat it."
Fang Tianwei laughed and watched Xiang Xiaochuang eating slowly, and occasionally glanced at Du Jiawen's table with his peripheral vision.
"Don't worry, the president will not be tempted by Chen Sijia."
Xiang Xiaochuang's face turned red: "Who's worried? No, it's none of my business whether he has feelings for anyone or not!"
That Chen Sijia seems to be sitting closer and closer to Du Jiawen, almost squeezing into his body. No matter how you look at it, this hotel is top-notch, and her style... is really embarrassing to the Chinese people.
.
Xiang Xiaochuang cursed while chewing the salad, as if he thought it was Chen Sijia.
Fang Tianwei stopped the knife and fork and looked at her with complicated eyes. Xiang Xiaochuang raised his head and was stunned for a moment before wiping it with his hand: "What's wrong? Did I get salad on my face?"
Ever since the drunken confession that night, Xiang Xiaochuang felt that Fang Tianwei was always a little wary.
"No, I just..." Fang Tianwei hesitated, "Nothing, just eat quickly."
Xiang Xiaochuang ate half of the cod fillet: "I can't eat anymore. Although I have never advocated waste, I can't care about it at this time. Anyway, someone has nothing but a lot of money."
Listening to her dismissive tone, Fang Tianwei just smiled: "How about we wait until they finish talking and then we go up together? I'll get you a cup of coffee... Oh, no, you can only drink juice."
Xiang Xiaochuang shrugged: "Well, it's okay to go back anyway. Let's stay here and protect the CEO, lest he be attacked by those two and not get any good results."
The two of them started talking casually, and Fang Tianwei talked about his experience studying in the United States. It turned out that he was a talented student at Columbia University.
"Then you can apply for CEO. Why do you want to be an assistant to the president in Yixin?" Xiang Xiaochuang asked curiously.
Fang Tianwei stirred the coffee cup with a small spoon: "Because Yixin's treatment is very good."
"Just because of this?" Xiang Xiaochuang asked dissatisfiedly.
"Xiao Chuang, if you have been with the president for a long time, you will know that he actually attaches great importance to talents. Although I share part of the chief secretary's work, my income is higher than that of other CEOs. What's more, I believe that the president will give
A chance for me to prove my strength."
"It seems that you have high hopes for the president..." Xiang Xiaochuang flattened his mouth and glanced quietly at the table over there. Du Jiawen seemed to be listening attentively to something from a long distance away.
, I couldn't see his facial expression clearly, I just felt there was a solemn atmosphere.
"Don't worry, the president and I have been through all kinds of storms. Don't worry about this little thing." Fang Tianwei said with a relaxed smile, "Don't think Chen Sijia is more cunning than a fox. If you meet the president, you will only suffer defeat."
Xiang Xiaochuang muttered: "Of course, he is more cunning than a fox!" Suddenly he felt a chill in his vest, and when he glanced sideways, Du Jiawen's eyes happened to meet hers.
