Fries touched his head in embarrassment, "I'm not stingy, as you all know, I'm just a poor editor, but you have the nerve to exploit me!"

"Exploitation!" Mustard's eyes widened, looking in disbelief.

"Stop pretending. Young master came down to earth to experience life. Do you really think we don't know anything?"

"Why are you still mentioning this!" Fries said with helplessness on his face, "I already told you I'm not!"

Sometimes, a unclear explanation is more like trying to hide something.

I don’t know when, news began to circulate within the Chicheng editorial department: It was said that Fries was the only son of the chairman of a multinational group. Because he did not want to inherit the family business, he resolutely severed ties with his family and chose this job.

.

Of course, he could choose to do this without hesitation, but his family had to entrust Chicheng to take good care of it, and to take care of it without leaving any trace. So you can see, although Fries is only a small editor within Chicheng, and every time there is a meeting

He is always criticized, but have you ever seen him treated differently because of criticism?

No!

There are even reports that his family has already invested in Chicheng so that he can live more comfortably here. It would not be an exaggeration to say that French fries are the prince of Chicheng.

Of course, all of this is supported by facts.

Take what happened a few days ago as an example. Have you ever seen that bald man in the operations department have any good feelings towards the people in the editorial department? No!

But what about his treatment of French fries? He is so kind and pleasant that even if he insists on kneeling down and licking them, it’s not too much.

It is said that he also signed a writer who may become a god under him, and the subsequent resources will be greatly tilted towards him...

There are no secrets in the editorial department, and this is not groundless news.

Hongdou and Bantang heard with their own ears that the waiter mentioned the author's name. The excitement on his face and the twinkling light in his eyes made it impossible to lie!

This news spread rapidly within the Chicheng editorial department...

It’s just that no one had the chance to find out the truth of this rumor. Although Mustard, Hongdou and others also made some insinuations, in the end due to various reasons, they still didn’t understand it, so they had to let this rumor get worse...

This actually has to be blamed on Fries. He has always been secretive about his origins, which has aggravated the situation in disguise.

Seeing that Fries seemed a little angry, the two of them made a tacit agreement not to mention this topic again.

Seeing this, Strawberry sat there obediently, with his head lowered, but his eyes shone with a strange light.

"Okay, okay, instead of thinking about this, why not think about what to eat tonight? This opportunity to blatantly take advantage of a big player can't be missed!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Hongdou took the initiative to ease the situation.

"It's up to you to decide what to eat. I've spent a lot of money today. Even if I take out a loan, I'll let you eat enough, that's all!"

"Really?" Mustard jumped up excitedly, "How about a family banquet at the palace?"

"After eating it yesterday, I still think about it. How about you fulfill my wish?"

"..."

Fries was a little speechless, but he still turned his head and looked at the strawberry hesitantly, "What do you think?"

This Wangfu family banquet is the place where Shanmao entertained guests yesterday. The per capita price starts at 1,500.

At that time, except for some people who really couldn't spare the time, it seemed that only Strawberry and Fries were absent. Although... Strawberry's excuse at the time was that he had something to do, but Fries always felt that it was related to him.

Regardless of whether it is wishful thinking or not, if she wants it, then let her do it!

"I...I actually don't have any requirements for food!" Strawberry touched his head vaguely, "Isn't that Japanese restaurant downstairs very good? The food is delicious and the price is affordable."

This is an unexpected answer from French fries.

When he saw her coming over in anger and telling him the news in an apologetic manner, he was already prepared for heavy bleeding.

Of course, whether it is based on compensation or flattery, Fries will try his best to use her opinions as a reference.

Unexpectedly...

There was uncontrollable joy on Fries' face, and he looked across the way, "Look! What is enlightenment? Couldn't what you ate yesterday still stop your mouths?"

"Okay, okay! Since Strawberry has said so, just listen to him!" Wasabi and Anko showed disappointment on their faces, "But let's make it clear, we have to meet the standard!"

"Okay!" Fries also let out a sigh of relief.

The business building where Chicheng is located does not have a canteen, so every time it’s mealtime, everyone basically chooses to make do with whatever they want at a nearby fast food restaurant, or order takeout.

The Japanese food shop downstairs was called Chicheng's second canteen by Chicheng's editorial department. At that time, Fries even wanted to encourage Da Zhuang to take over the contract.

——It is said that his craftsmanship is quite good.

Unexpectedly, the coward slapped his chest loudly and said that he wanted to trick Brother Yi into being a dog. In the end, it was just a chat and nothing happened soon.

I've eaten French fries from that store a few times.

To be honest, the taste is just like that.

It mainly sells takeout, which is simple Japanese set meals and sushi... Even if four people eat in that store, it may not exceed 1,000 yuan.

The way Fries looked at Strawberry became more and more kind... How could there be such a treasure girl?

As far as the relationship between the two is concerned, it may just be that of colleagues now, but when an ordinary colleague encounters such a situation, wouldn't he be eager to kill him severely?

Just like the two people opposite... However, Strawberry did not choose to do this.

Thinking of this, Fries couldn't help but feel refreshed. He turned his head and looked at the two people opposite him arrogantly.

——How can the differences between people be so big?

Under his sharp eyes, the two people on the opposite side were obviously a little unnatural... Although what they said before was more of just joking with the French fries, who would have thought that the answer given by Strawberry gave them such a hard time.

Being stabbed so hard also made them look different inside and out.

But at this time, they could only cheer up and start talking about him and making jokes.

Strawberry still sat there with her head down, looking at the three people confronting each other from time to time, with a calm smile on her face.

A man is a boy until he dies, just like the three people in front of him, aren't they like three children? They are arguing pointlessly over such trivial matters... However, this kind of relationship is really enviable!

Strawberry's eyes showed a look of yearning.

Although she is known as the flower of the editorial department, after accepting this title, it means that she has lost a lot...for example, the happiness that can be gained from ordinary editors.

First of all, there is the hostility from most female editors... No female editor can resist the temptation of this title, especially those who are good-looking.

Therefore, having this title basically means that she has stood on the opposite side of all galloping women.

What's more, she is still arrogant and wants to be strong in everything.

For most men, she is more like a dream that can be watched from a distance but not played with. Most unmarried guys only dare to look at her with admiration, but rarely use the courage to step forward...

As for those without purpose, there is no such thing.

Even in the eyes of many people, she has enjoyed all the benefits this face has brought to her: even if she makes mistakes at work, they are usually brushed aside, and there are many people vying to come and wipe her butt...

…

So, if we really want to say it, she actually doesn't have many friends in the editorial department.

Looking at the three people who were still arguing, she suddenly felt a burst of envy. However, at this time, she seemed to be completely unable to fit in.

The key is that the French fries are still unknown and are red-faced with anger!

There was a bit of hesitation on her face, and then she became determined... After thinking about it, probably to kill time, she started to flip through the notebook of French fries she had held in her hand.

This is an unconscious move. If you insist on saying it, it is more like looking for trouble.

Of course, before reading, she also raised her notebook and gestured towards the fries, but he didn't stop her, he just shook his head to signal her to just read.

These are not important work notes. They record more inspirations and ideas that come to mind occasionally. Therefore, there is no need to keep them confidential.

Soon, the three of them became quiet.

This kind of quarrels and fights happen several times a day, but in the end they end in nothing and there is no result.

However, such peace did not last long. Suddenly, Strawberry spoke.

"Xia...Xia Jun? Who is Xia Jun?" Strawberry asked curiously, staring straight at the fries with a strange expression.

"Xia...Xia Jun..." Fries began to stutter, looking at the strawberry, his face flushed.

He didn't know how Strawberry knew Xia Jun's name, but he couldn't help but feel extremely frightened when he heard the name from her mouth unexpectedly.

The strawberry in front of me is holding a notebook high, and one of the pages is densely filled with Xia Jun's words.

——It was the names he had unconsciously written down while sitting in front of the computer.

When he left his work station earlier, he took this notebook with him without thinking, because... he had forgotten it a long time ago.

Therefore, when Strawberry picked up this notebook earlier, he really didn't pay much attention to it.

Thinking of this, French fries suddenly became overwhelmed.

This feeling was like being caught in bed. And lacking some quick wit, he didn't know how to explain it.

Like hyenas eating blood, the two people opposite them suddenly became excited, "Xia Jun? Tiao, you are not being righteous. What? Are you hiding someone?"

Fries' face instantly turned red. Anyone who looked at this must have something wrong with him.

Strawberry still looked at him deeply, but there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Fries' heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained: "Xia Jun is the name of the heroine in a submission I saw earlier."

"I just thought the name sounded pretty good, so I copied it several times."

This excuse is of course very lame.

But somehow he managed to blurt out this reason.

In short, he just didn't want others to know Xia Jun's existence, especially since Strawberry was still here...

The three of them still looked suspicious.

"Really, don't you still believe me? I just saw a submission today. I just think... this name is really, really catchy."

His voice became weaker and weaker, filled with guilt.

"All right!"

Strawberry made the final decision and gently placed the notebook on the table, cutting off the two people opposite from further exploration.

Fries let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Strawberry with gratitude in his eyes.

"Go back?" Strawberry said without emotion: "It's almost time to get off work, go back and pack up, and go have a big meal."

"Yes, yes!" Fries wanted to escape from this awkward place quickly, stood up quickly, and walked towards the office first.
