The two of them spent a long time picking and choosing, but they didn't decide where to eat. Jiang Dongming either said that the coupon had expired, or that the price there was not affordable, so they went back and forth and couldn't choose the right one.
"Forget it! I won't eat it. If you want to eat it, go and eat it yourself!"
Wang Xiaojiao rolled her eyes, feeling desperate inside.
"No, let me just say it casually. Isn't it necessary to be prudent in life? I don't have to choose. The first one is KFC. If it's more expensive, it's more expensive."
Jiang Dongming immersed himself in picking out the KFC portion from a pile of coupons and murmured to himself: "We have to choose a set meal. Let me tell you, this selection is tricky..."
Wang Xiaojiao didn't listen at all. A strong sense of oppression came over her face. She never wanted to live such a life. Living such a life followed her everywhere, like a ghost, haunting her.
There are many people in KFC.
Many of them are adults bringing their children or young couples to eat. After this kind of fast food entered China, it quickly captured the stomachs of the Chinese people.
It turns out that chicken can still be eaten like this.
The children are all proud of coming to KFC for their birthdays, and they can show off to the class for a long time.
Jiang Dongming stood in front of the ordering counter, struggling with the waiter, holding coupons like pieces of paper, piecing them together in various ways, just to buy the most things at the best price.
People in line behind them looked at them sideways.
Wang Xiaojiao felt embarrassed and didn't want to queue anymore. She found a corner and sat down. She could see the entire hall from here, but no one could pay attention to this remote corner.
After a long while, Jiang Dongming finally came over with something and said happily: "Guess how much money I saved? Five dollars! The waiter said that my coupon had expired. It was from last month. I
It said it was for washing clothes, but I couldn't see clearly. I looked at it for a long time before I could see clearly."
Jiang Dongming pushed the things in front of Wang Xiaojiao ostentatiously, like a general who had won a battle, but Wang Xiaojiao had no appetite at all.
"Actually, it is indeed expired, haha, I washed it like this on purpose."
Jiangdong obviously made 1 million and was very happy. Some people felt that they had suffered a loss even if they didn't take advantage.
This kind of life is full of fireworks, but makes people extremely desperate. When she thinks that the future will be like this, Wang Xiaojiao feels breathless.
Suddenly, a pair of familiar figures walked into KFC. Wang Xiaojiao lowered her face and glanced at them with her peripheral vision.
The less she wants to see someone, she just wants to see others in their most prosperous state when they are in the most miserable state.
The ones who came were none other than Qiao Jinling and Song Yishan.
Qiao Jinling held Song Yishan's hand. As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted many eyes in the restaurant.
It's no wonder that one is handsome and the other is beautiful. The two of them stand together, their whole bodies are shining, and they can bear the words "golden boy and beautiful girl".
"I don't want to eat KFC. I'm afraid of gaining weight. I've gained several pounds during the Chinese New Year. If I continue to eat, my classmates won't recognize me when school starts."
Qiao Jinling pulled Song Yishan's sleeves and acted coquettishly. Song Yishan patted her head and said dotingly: "Where is the fat? She is so thin. It would be better to eat more."
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you eat a little, right?"
Qiao Jinling's eyes had already glanced at the place where she was ordering food, and she was licking the tip of her tongue, looking very greedy.
"It doesn't matter. If you can't eat it, I'll eat it again. You can eat whatever you want. It's the New Year, it's only once a year."
Song Yishan saw through her little thoughts and found a way to speak for her.
"That's right! If you don't eat enough, how can you have the energy to lose weight? Why don't we have a family bucket and some French fries? In fact, the fried chicken legs just out of the pan are also good..."
"Okay, just order it."
Song Yishan stood behind Qiao Jinling, wrapping his arms around him. He looked so elegant, easy-going, handsome, clean and refreshing, but he only smiled at Qiao Jinling.
Wang Xiaojiao looked away and looked at Jiang Dongming opposite, who was showing him how to eat French fries with great interest.
"Look, you cover the fries with ketchup, and then when you eat the fries, you lick the ketchup off the fries. The fries are still there, and then continue to cover them with ketchup. Anyway, ketchup is free, so you can eat it.
You can still go and ask for it when you’re done.”
After that, Jiang Dongming pulled out a soft French fries from his mouth and showed it to Wang Xiaojiao as if showing off. The French fries had been licked until it turned white, like a giant maggot in a latrine, which made Wang Xiaojiao feel sick.
Over there, Jiang Dongming was still chattering, showing off his French fries eating skills.
On the other hand, Qiao Jinling's petulant laughter penetrated Wang Xiaojiao's ears. It was so harsh that it only penetrated into his own heart. The hands under the table were clenched into fists, and she wanted to punch Jiang Dongming's head.
"Jiang Dongming, I want to have a good meal. I want to eat Western food. Will you treat me to it?"
Wang Xiaojiao lost her temper and stared at Jiang Dongming with her eyes from top to bottom, as if she wanted to poke two holes in his face.
"You, why did you suddenly say that? Of course I am willing to do it. I will agree to whatever you want to eat."
Jiang Dongming's eyes flickered, and under Wang Xiaojiao's pressure, he nodded hesitantly.
"Okay, let's go to China World Hotel now!"
Wang Xiaojiao's tone was non-negotiable, and she walked straight out of KFC. As she passed the door, her eyes uncontrollably glanced at Qiao Jinling's table. The two of them were so harmonious and loving, and she was a complete joke, like a rat in the gutter.
Can't get on the table.
Wang Xiaojiao took a taxi directly there, and the distressed Jiang Dongming kept nagging her all the way to the point where even the taxi driver couldn't listen anymore.
As soon as Jiang Dongming looked at the facade and decoration, he knew that the price was not cheap, but he had already agreed, and it was impossible to go back on it, so he had to bite the bullet and go in. He had never been to such a high-end restaurant once in all the years he had been in Beijing.
On the contrary, Wang Xiaojiao is very familiar with it. She has been here countless times, whether with Chen Guoqiang or alone.
There was a time when she felt like she was about to vomit. Only in a place like this did she feel that her breathing became easier and she felt like a human being in Beijing.
"Xiaojiao, why don't we think about it again?"
Jiang Dongming grabbed Wang Xiaojiao's arm.
"If you can afford it, please do it. If you can't afford it, just say so. If you want to consider it, then I will also consider it."
Wang Xiaojiao stared at the door of the hotel without squinting, as if once she stepped into that door, she would become that master again.
Jiang Dongming gritted his teeth and was cruel. He couldn't let go of the child. He couldn't trap the wolf. His wife was by his side and he couldn't let her run away no matter what.
There were several waiters standing at the front desk, all with polite smiles on their faces, saying: "Welcome."
Wang Xiaojiao walked arrogantly in front, while Jiang Dongming followed behind with shrinking hands and feet.
After finally taking a seat, Wang Xiaojiao ordered a few dishes that she liked in the past. Jiang Dongming only glanced at the price and almost stopped eating.
"Wait a minute, waiter, we don't want the meal we just ordered. When I was at the front desk, I saw you had a set meal for 188 yuan. Let's order that!"
Jiang Dongming's words made the waiter look subtle, and he returned to his standard smile and said, "I'm sorry, sir, that package will only take effect next month."
Jiang Dongming was slightly embarrassed and said in a stiff tone: "Why are you hanging out for next month's event? You don't think about the guests at all."
"You can come back next month."
The waiter may have just arrived, but he looked unhappy when he heard Jiang Dongming's complaint.
"I want to eat now, but you asked me to wait until next month to come here. I might not want to come next month!"
Jiang Dongming raised his tone and was secretly happy, maybe he could escape this meal!
