Wang Gang looked at his watch and saw that there was still an hour before get off work. There would be traffic jams during the evening rush hour, so he planned to get off work early.
The work of the Financial Supervision Bureau is not hard. It mostly involves reviewing information. With Wang Gang's ability, it is really a piece of cake.
In addition, his social skills are full and he has medical skills. It can be said that he is very comfortable in the workplace. He can get off work just by saying hello to the boss.
"Xiao Shen, you are dressed so nicely today, do you have a date tonight?" Brother Sun, the leader, teased.
"I really can't get away from the blind date arranged by my sister." Wang Gang admitted generously.
"Then you have to go early, don't let the girl wait for a long time." Brother Sun happily asked Wang Gang to get off work.
"Brother Sun, if you keep taking two doses of the medicine I've prescribed for you, all your problems will be cured. Remember not to have sex during this period." Wang Gang looked at Brother Sun's complexion and said.
"Xiao Shen, thank you! If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would be better." Brother Sun sighed.
"You're welcome, it's just a matter of convenience." Wang Gang laughed, then went out to say hello to other colleagues, and left directly after get off work.
Anyone who has experienced the evening rush hour in Beijing knows that there are traffic jams in the eight lanes in both directions. Shen Linding's Western restaurant is quite far away, and it takes 40 minutes to drive there normally.
When Wang Gang arrived, Shen Lin and Hu Haili had been waiting for ten minutes.
"Sister, Miss Hu, I'm sorry, the road is really congested. If I had known, I would have taken the subway here." Wang Gang apologized.
Hu Haili looked at Wang Gang, and the more she looked at him, the more she liked him. She stood up politely and said hello.
"It doesn't matter, we just arrived not long ago."
Wang Gang specially wore an Armani suit today. It was neatly arranged and matched with his temperament. It gave Hu Haili a great first impression.
Hu Haili was also dressed very appropriately today, simple yet fashionable. She specially put on light makeup, and she obviously attached great importance to this blind date.
"Xiao Lei, sit down quickly!" Shen Lin handed the menu to Wang Gang with a smile on her face.
"What do you want to eat, Miss Hu? The steak in this Western restaurant tastes good."
Hu Haili said reservedly: "I am losing weight."
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Miss Hu is so slim, does she still have body anxiety?"
Hu Haili said with a smile: "I just had a physical examination. The doctor said that my body fat is too high. He suggested that I eat lighter during this period."
Shen Lin smiled and said: "Hai Li, you have a model figure and a lot of body fat, so I'm not fat. Ever since I gave birth to my second child, I feel like I'm gaining weight even if I drink cold water."
Hu Haili smiled and said: "Sister Lin, you are called happy fat, I still envy you."
"Since both ladies want to lose weight, I will make my own decision and order some vegetable salad." Wang Gang said as he opened the menu.
"Don't order for me." Shen Lin said, "I'll leave in a minute."
"Go back after eating." Wang Gang advised: "How can I let a matchmaker like you go home hungry?"
Hu Haili blushed slightly, but seeing Wang Gang's magnanimity, she secretly felt extra points in her heart.
"No more, your brother-in-law is still at home waiting for me to come back." Shen Lin glanced at Hu Haili and Wang Gang and said:
"Today is mainly for you to get to know each other. You can chat while eating. Xiaolei will remember to drive Haili home later."
"Okay." Wang Gang agreed.
Shen Lin exchanged glances with Hu Haili, then got up and left. Wang Gang called a car for her.
When only Wang Gang and Hu Haili were left, the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Finally, Wang Gang spoke first: "Miss Hu, my sister should have told you about my situation, let me introduce myself!
My name is Shen Lei. I am 30 years old. I work at the Financial Supervision Bureau. I have a formal establishment and a Beijing registered permanent residence. I only have one car under my name and haven’t bought a house yet. Besides work, I like to write.
I once had a marriage, but unfortunately it didn’t work out well, and my ex-wife and I didn’t have any children.”
Hu Haili smiled and said: "My name is Hu Haili. I lived in Beijing for seven or eight years and had no house or car. My parents in my hometown bought me a house and a car. However, I am usually too busy with work and rarely go home.
In fact, considering the conditions, you are much better than me."??
Dating bureaus are generally relatively straightforward. The more honest the man and woman are, the better they will get along with each other.
Wang Gang himself is very generous, and Hu Haili is naturally very good at speaking as he can be the human resources director. The two of them soon started chatting and found a good rapport.
Hu Haili had a very good impression of Wang Gang and felt that Wang Gang's conditions were very good, even much better than hers. She really couldn't figure out why Wang Gang got divorced.
Wang Gang did not avoid the topic of Xie Meilan, saying bluntly: "My ex-wife and I broke up because of different values. What I want is a simple life. I don't have to be too busy at work and just have enough money. She is much more ambitious in her career."
Hu Haili agreed: "Modern people's lives are stressful, due to the endless expansion of desires. Sometimes it is good to stop and stabilize."
Wang Gang nodded and said: "It seems that Miss Hu and I have very similar views."
Hu Haili blushed a little. She didn't expect Wang Gang to be so direct and she would not be restrained.
?"You can just call me Hailey."
Wang Gang was about to talk about other topics when he accidentally saw a person behind Hu Haili.
"Na Juan."
Na Juan also saw Wang Gang at the same time and subconsciously wanted to leave.
Hu Haili noticed Wang Gang's eyes and turned around to take a look.
"Meet anyone you know?"
Wang Gang nodded and said, "My brother-in-law's brother."
Hu Haili was stunned and said: "What about Viagra's younger brother?"
As a former subordinate of Shen Lin, Hu Haili had also met Na Wei before. When Shen Lin worked in her previous unit, Na Wei would pick up his wife from get off work, but Hu Haili had never met Na Juan.
Na Juan also saw Hu Haili at this time and couldn't help but frown.
"Do you want to say hello?" Hu Haili asked.
"No, I'm actually not familiar with him." Wang Gang said calmly.
"This Western restaurant was introduced by my brother-in-law. Maybe he also introduced it to my younger brother."
Hu Haili instinctively saw that Wang Gang and Na Juan were not dealing with each other, but due to her status, she did not ask further questions.
Na Juan seemed to have made an appointment with someone and did not choose to leave. He found a seat quite far away to sit down.
Soon, a woman with outstanding appearance and even better dress, wearing a famous brand, walked into the restaurant wearing a pair of sky-high boots.
When Na Juan saw the woman, she raised her hand and said hello.
Wang Gang finally figured out that Juan was also here for a blind date. Judging from the woman's temperament and dress, she was either rich or noble.
On the contrary, Na Juan was dressed very ordinary, wearing a sports jacket, plaid shirt and jeans, for fear that others would not know that he was a programmer.
When the woman saw Juan's attire, disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she still walked over on high heels.
When passing Wang Gang's table, the woman accidentally glanced at him, and then her eyes lit up.
"Commissioner Shen, what a coincidence, you are also eating here?"
Wang Gang then raised his head and looked at the woman's face carefully, and found that she was someone he knew.
"Mr. Qi." Wang Gang did not stand up, but just nodded to the woman.
Wang Gang had professional contact with Mr. Qi, and actually only met him twice. However, due to their professional relationship, it was impossible for Mr. Qi to offend anyone from the Financial Supervision Bureau when he opened a company.
When Na Juan saw his blind date turning around and running to Wang Gang's table, he naturally couldn't bear it and rushed over immediately.
