Zhang Xi's newly opened restaurant is located in an inconspicuous alley near Sanlitun. With its novel decoration design, this restaurant has become very popular on short videos, and many Internet celebrities come here to check in.
The motorcycle-style decoration design is very cool, and various Harley motorcycles can be seen everywhere. When we arrived, we saw a girl sitting on a motorcycle at the door posing for photos, and there were several girls queuing up next to her, waiting to take photos.
Harley represents not only motorcycles, but a free, unique and individual lifestyle, which is in line with today's young people's outlook on life.
I felt that all the blood in my body was about to be ignited by the motorcycle atmosphere of the restaurant. I was very excited and could not help but move my head and head to the rhythm of the music.
Business in the restaurant was booming, and Zhang Xi and his wife were so busy that they kicked the back of their heads. When he saw me, he waved to me quickly:
"Brother dei, come here and help me quickly. I'm overwhelmed. Table No. 6, please help me with six bottles of Cowardice."
"..."
This guy really didn't treat me as an outsider, so I happily went over to help, but when I turned around, Lin Feifei followed me.
"What can I do to help?" Lin Feifei blinked her watery almond eyes and said to Zhang Xi.
Zhang Xi still has some humanity, "Brothers and sisters, just leave it alone! How inappropriate!"
Lin Feifei rolled up her sleeves and smiled sweetly: "It doesn't matter, we are all friends, it's only right for me to help."
Zhang Xi stopped being pretentious, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay, help me clean up table No. 3! When the work is done, I'll treat you to a midnight snack."
"okay!"
Lin Feifei glanced at the messy table without showing any impatience. She picked up the trash can and really went to clean it up.
Zhang Xi said that an employee asked for leave today, and the business was extremely busy, so he couldn't be busy at all. Fortunately, these two "big grudges" like us came, otherwise he would have been blinded.
Lin Feifei came back from clearing the table and did not go to rest. She looked at Zhang Xi with burning eyes and asked expectantly:
"What else can I do? Don't worry, just treat me to a late night snack when you're done."
Zhang Xi immediately let go of his mental baggage: "Then give some snacks to each of the waiting customers outside!"
Some customers had been waiting for the service for a long time and were very angry, but when they saw how beautiful the "waiter" was, they immediately calmed down. Changing faces is like changing heads. It seems that the effect of beautiful women is different.
Zhang Xi's wife is in charge of ordering, Zhang Xi and I are in charge of serving food, Lin Feifei cleans up the garbage and serves tea and water. The division of labor is clear and everything is in order.
Lin Feifei is a flight attendant and has a strong sense of service. When pouring water for the guests waiting for their seats, she even asked them if they wanted to drink Coke or plain water.
It was both the first time for Lin Feifei and I to do this. I glanced at her secretly. Although she was too busy to leave her feet, I could tell that she was happy.
The barbecue restaurant is very lively inside and outside, and the night world of Sanlitun is colorful, but the alley not far from it is another world.
Some people are greedy for colorful, strange and blurry things, but for me, those things have passed through my life. Now I prefer the smoke of fireworks wafting from the streets and alleys.
After seeing off the last table of guests and closing time, it was already close to early morning.
After closing, Zhang Xi came out with a barbecue and a few bottles of beer, "Here's a late night snack!"
Lin Feifei and I were paralyzed from exhaustion. We were "dying" and leaning against each other. When we saw the barbecue being served, we suddenly came back to life with full health.
Zhang Xi's wife was settling accounts and said she didn't need to worry about her, so the three of us set up a table outside the barbecue restaurant and ate deliciously under the cool, hazy autumn night.
The moonlight shines down coldly, and paired with the dim street lights, it has a special feel.
Zhang Xi picked up a glass of wine and looked at us with a sincere look, "Thank you both very much for today. Just treat this meal as a casual snack tonight. Next time you come, I will make good arrangements for you!"
Lin Feifei and I also raised our wine glasses, clinked them, and after drinking them all in one gulp, I put down the wine glasses, looked at Zhang Xi, and said with a smile:
"Why are you closing the door at such an early hour? Isn't that right?
Is it a little too early? "
Zhang Xi waved his hand, put one foot on the chair, and said with a smile: "No, I'm getting older, I can't stay up anymore, and I can't make enough money. Health comes first! My body can't stand it after staying up for a long time."
A trace of surprise flashed in Lin Feifei's eyes, "Brother Xi, it's okay for you to be enlightened!"
Zhang Xi smiled sheepishly, turned back and pointed at his wife, sighing:
"A few days ago, my husband was hospitalized, and the two of us took turns staying in bed. These days of staying together in bed made me understand that nothing is more important than health. Only those who have money will have money! So the two of us don't stay up late now."
I took a sip of wine and nodded heavily, "Yes, just like I just resigned today, I am already perverted in my heart, and I must be healthy."
Zhang Xi looked surprised, "Are you unemployed?"
I laughed at myself and said, "What is unemployment? This is called flexible employment."
Zhang Xi smiled bitterly, patted me on the shoulder, and whispered: "Just resign, are you not suitable for work?".
"Hy?"
He clinked glasses with me and said, "Because you are an idealist. You are not the kind of person who only aims to make money. Your money must match your own values, otherwise you have no interest in making money."
I was a little embarrassed by what he said and sighed: "So! To me, everything is fake, only poverty is real."
Lin Feifei smiled and looked at me with encouraging eyes, "Don't be anxious! You are already thirty! Having no money now is nothing."
"Yeah! Anyway, there will be more days without money in the future." I laughed.
"..." Lin Feifei was so angry that she didn't want to pay attention to me.
Zhang Xi laughed loudly, "Then what are you going to do in the future?"
I cracked a few peanuts and muttered: "I have a part-time job at an older sister's place, and I can earn a decent amount every month, and I can also make money from writing! It's not fun to work at all. No."
"Then do you make money writing?"
"It's not bad! I wanted to make 20,000 last month."
Zhang Xi said seriously, "Then what happened in the end?"
"In the end, we were still 18,000 short of the target."
"Hahaha, God is so damn 18..."
Under the cold night sky, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out.
The adult world is really tiring, and most of the things life shows us are unfriendly sides.
In order to live, we have to bow to reality, are forced to do things we don’t like, say things that disgust us, and live less and less like ourselves.
After getting Lin Feifei's consent, I lit a cigarette. Those erotic scenes in the past seemed to gradually dissipate with the diffuse smoke rings, and the future suddenly became unknown to me, but this time, I Know how to be kind to yourself.
Zhang Xi turned to look at Lin Feifei and asked, "Brother and sister, he resigned and did this at home, do you support him?"
Lin Feifei's eyes fell on me and the corners of her lips raised: "To be honest, I think it's a bit outrageous."
Zhang Xi and I were stunned at the same time. To be honest, I didn't expect her to say that.
Lin Feifei paused and smiled: "But we only live a lifetime, so I think we should do something outrageous."
Zhang Xi and I looked at each other, and I could see a feeling of envy in his eyes.
He patted me on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Brother, you have met a good woman."
I suddenly felt that I was definitely the happiest man in the world.
