CHAPTER 95: CHAPTER 95: TEN YUAN AND I’LL DISAPPEAR INSTANTLY

Zhang Dongmei didn’t expect Su Xiaoxiao would invite her along, thinking that at least she knows who to hang out with.

Immediately, she looked bashfully at Zhao Yang: "Comrade Zhao, sorry to bother you."

The date for two turned into a party of three, Zhao Yang was quite displeased internally, but couldn’t show it in front of Su Xiaoxiao, and could only force a smile: "Sure, the more the merrier."

The three of them arrived at the entrance of the state-run restaurant, Su Xiaoxiao went off to park her bike, and Zhang Dongmei looked at the tall man standing beside her, blushing deeply.

Occasionally, passersby would look at the pair, making Zhang Dongmei even happier, thinking, the two standing here probably look just like a perfect couple, otherwise why would everyone take a second glance at them?

Just as she was enjoying these thoughts, she heard a slightly helpless voice next to her: "Hey, you two, if you’re on a date, could you move somewhere else? Can’t you see you’re blocking the entrance?"

Zhang Dongmei: "..."

Zhao Yang: "..."

Though, he said they were on a date, considering this old man has some keen insight, she decided not to mind his previous rudeness.

Zhang Dongmei immediately looked shyly at Zhao Yang: "Comrade Zhao, should we wait inside?"

Zhao Yang was somewhat embarrassed himself, he originally thought Comrade Su would be right back, and standing here would make it easy for her to spot him, but they ended up being a bother.

No other choice, he nodded in agreement: "Alright."

The two found a place to sit, but ended up waiting for a long time with no sign of Su Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Dongmei was quite pleased, if Su Xiaoxiao didn’t return, wouldn’t this be a date for just the two of them? Didn’t expect that girl to do a good deed after all.

However, Zhao Yang was like sitting on pins and needles, what was Mr. Zhang’s deal? Why was he constantly winking at him, as if he had a twitch?

"Are you two going to order or what? If not, then make way, there’s a lot of people waiting!"

The waitress, seeing them sitting there for a long time without ordering, couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

It was dinner time, and seats were quite scarce. These two sitting here silently for so long is like occupying a toilet without using it.

Zhao Yang had never been this embarrassed before; normally, he would have just walked out.

But now... he couldn’t leave, as Comrade Su hadn’t returned.

He had no choice but to suppress his anger and speak up: "Just ask for sweet and sour ribs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, spicy potato shreds, and two bowls of rice as the main course."

The waitress’s expression softened a bit, thinking why didn’t he say he wanted to order earlier? Made her misunderstand the situation.

After ordering, the two sat awkwardly, Zhao Yang anxiously looking outside, worried that something might have happened to Comrade Su, why hadn’t she come back?

He actually guessed correctly; Su Xiaoxiao did run into something, but it was a good thing.

She had just parked her bike when a excited voice came from behind: "Comrade Su."

Su Xiaoxiao turned around, seeing a familiar face: "Director Li?"

She never expected to bump into Li Zhenhua, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.

Li Zhenhua looked at her excitedly: "Comrade Su, here’s the remaining five hundred yuan, count it, and also ten packs of shampoo for you to take home. Once you finish them, you can come to me for more anytime, free of charge."

Su Xiaoxiao had never thought Director Li would be so generous, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, because she hadn’t spent a dime on the shampoo formula, just had to move her lips a bit.

Li Zhenhua shared the sales situation of the shampoo excitedly, feeling very proud.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t expect that her casually received shampoo formula would create a sales miracle of this era, wondering if Old Baldie would vomit in anger.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before parting ways.

Su Xiaoxiao, with a generous amount of cash in her pocket, felt great.

She walked back to the state-run restaurant and saw the scene of Zhao Yang and Zhang Dongmei being berated by the waitress, savoring the moment before slowly walking over.

Zhang Dongmei noticed her return from afar, her brow immediately furrowing, why is that girl so lacking in tact? She was having a great conversation with Comrade Zhao, why did she come back now?

Su Xiaoxiao completely ignored the displeasure in her eyes and walked over to sit beside her intimately.

Zhao Yang was originally making small talk with Zhang Dongmei. Seeing Su Xiaoxiao return, he immediately sat up straight and his face lit up with a smile.

"Comrade Su, you’re back. We’ve just ordered a few dishes, feel free to order whatever you want, it’s on me."

The completely different attitude towards her compared to Zhang Dongmei made her grind her teeth in anger.

This girl arrived, and Comrade Zhao’s attention was entirely on her; he didn’t even spare a glance her way anymore.

While mentally cursing her, Su Xiaoxiao secretly tugged at her clothes, indicating she wanted to whisper something.

Zhao Yang noticed the two talking and felt relieved that he’d treated Zhang Dongmei fairly well earlier. It seems the two are pretty close.

If he were kinder to Zhang Dongmei, she might become a strong helper to him.

Unaware of his thoughts, Su Xiaoxiao leaned in and whispered in Zhang Dongmei’s ear: "Ten yuan, and I’ll disappear immediately."

Zhang Dongmei hadn’t expected her to say that, and immediately looked at her with suspicion: "Would you really be so kind?"

With Comrade Zhao’s physical conditions and family background, she didn’t believe Su Xiaoxiao wouldn’t be interested and would willingly give up such a good chance to her, so she was skeptical.

"Will you give or not?"

Su Xiaoxiao was too lazy to explain further, her plan was to get a meal from Zhao Yang and leave immediately.

Zhang Dongmei hesitated for a moment and then clenched her teeth: "Deal."

She reached into her pocket, pulled out a banknote, and handed it to Su Xiaoxiao: "Keep your word."

Su Xiaoxiao took the money with a smile and stood up: "Comrade Zhao, I’m sorry, I just remembered I have something to do, can I get my meals to-go?"

Zhao Yang was stunned, but then thought maybe Comrade Su was testing him.

He immediately waved his hand generously: "Of course, no problem. Comrade Su, order as much as you want, it’s on me."

Su Xiaoxiao gave him a sweet smile: "Thank you, Comrade Zhao."

Zhao Yang was dazzled by the smile, his heart feeling as sweet as if it were submerged in a jar of sugar.

By the time he collected himself, Su Xiaoxiao had already efficiently gone to pack her meals.

Once again, there were only two people sitting at the table, and Zhao Yang forced himself to continue conversing with Zhang Dongmei.

Thinking, Comrade Su being so petite, surely wouldn’t take away too much.

That’s great; maybe next time he can ask her what she likes and invite her alone.

Feeling happy about the thought, the waitress came over with the bill.

"Hello, comrade, the lady comrade just now said to put the packed meals on your bill, is that okay?"

Meanwhile, Su Xiaoxiao waved at him with a cheerful smile.

Zhao Yang’s heart was already floating: "No problem, put it all on my bill."

The waitress gave him a strange look and then went back to help pack Su Xiaoxiao’s meals.

Once Su Xiaoxiao left, Zhao Yang lost interest in the meal: "Mr. Zhang, I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first."

He stood up immediately and went to settle the bill.

Upon reaching the counter and hearing the total, he was stunned speechless.
