I used a self-deprecating tone. My original intention was to adjust the embarrassing atmosphere at that time.
But Zhou Hanzhi still had a calm face and made it clear that he didn't want to pay attention to us.
Lin Xixi stepped forward to smooth things over: "What a coincidence. Have Sister Nan Xu and Professor Yan made reservations for private rooms? If you don't mind, we can share a table."
This is the plot we originally discussed.
I was just about to answer when I heard Zhou Hanzhi say: "On such an important day tonight, are you sure you want two outsiders to spoil our fun?"
His voice was gentle, but he deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "outsider".
It was obvious that he didn’t like me and Yan Dong very much.
Lin Xixi didn't pay attention, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "How can Sister Nanxu and Professor Yan be considered outsiders? Besides, there are so many people and it's so lively."
Her voice is sweet, the tail tone is delicate and soft, and her coquettish energy in holding a little girl is really irresistible.
Yan Dong, who was kept in the dark, seemed to notice something fishy and asked curiously: "Is today a special day?"
"To be honest, Professor Yan, today is the 100th day of my relationship with Han Zhi," Lin Xixi's big deer-like eyes were full of happiness, "Anniversary."
Yan Dong looked at me immediately after hearing the sound.
Although Lin Xixi informed me of this news early in the morning, at this second, I was still slightly surprised and said: "I see, then it is really inappropriate for the two of us to be present at this time."
Anyone with a slightly normal attitude would not have the eyesight to see a couple trying to show their presence on their anniversary.
What's more, it's the 100th anniversary of Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi's relationship.
"Hanzhi, please say something," Lin Xixi gently pulled Zhou Hanzhi's arm, "Okay?"
Zhou Hanzhi glanced at me lightly, his expression softened slightly, and said to Lin Xixi: "You are the biggest tonight, you have the final say."
His voice was not gentle, but it seemed to give Lin Xixi enough face.
Lin Xixi looked at Zhou Hanzhi with satisfaction, and then said to us: "Sister Nan Xu, Professor Yan, please."
In the box, pink and white warm-colored balloons filled every corner, and "happy 100 days" was written in English under the heart-shaped rose bouquets.
Even the air is filled with the sweet smell of hot cocoa.
It was obviously carefully arranged.
So meticulous, even the dolls on the cream cake placed on the dining table are miniature versions of the couple Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi.
He is completely different from Zhou Hanzhi who never remembers any anniversaries.
The protagonist in the story, Lin Xixi, was also dumbfounded at this moment. She covered her mouth with her hands, exclaimed, then looked at Zhou Hanzhi and said, "Did the seniors prepare these for me?"
Zhou Hanzhi's expression froze and he responded softly.
The little girl's eyes were filled with tears, and she choked and said: "Hanzhi, you are too kind to me."
The emotional eyes, choked tone, and ambiguous scenery instantly made the atmosphere between the two ambiguous.
No matter how you look at it, Yan Dong and I standing here are so redundant.
But just when the atmosphere was right, Zhou Hanzhi reminded Lin Xixi: "Blow out the candles."
A flash of disappointment flashed in the little girl's eyes, but she soon returned to normal.
How should I put it? Sometimes, Zhou Hanzhi is indeed a bit confused.
"Hanzhi, are you a little greedy to make two wishes?" Lin Xixi asked innocently while standing in front of the red candle.
"Can."
Lin Xixi clasped her hands together happily and said piously: "The first wish is that I hope that senior can stay with me for every hundred days in the future."
After she said this, she looked at Zhou Hanzhi affectionately, waiting for his response.
"Where's the second wish?" Zhou Hanzhi asked without answering.
Lin Xixi's expression froze and she said cautiously: "If possible, Hanzhi, I want to reconcile with Tangtang."
When I mentioned Tangtang, I cheered up, but when I raised my eyes, I met Zhou Hanzhi's bottomless black eyes.
From his eyes, I saw a hint of teasing and sarcasm.
"Hanzhi," Lin Xixi pulled Zhou Hanzhi's arm and said softly, "I know you feel sorry for me, but you see, I am happier than anyone in the world now, can we not care about it? "
Zhou Hanzhi leaned over and looked at Lin Xixi. After a slight pause, he responded: "You, I really can't do anything with you."
This is an agreement to reconcile.
The tight string in my heart relaxed slightly.
And Lin Xixi also made me realize her importance in Zhou Hanzhi's heart.
After the ceremony, Yan Dong proposed a toast to Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi.
"Thank you Han Zhi and Miss Lin for your generosity," he said in a pious tone, "Nan Xu and I toast you."
Zhou Hanzhi looked at the wine glass handed over by Yan Dong, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "This matter is about Manager Meng teaching his subordinates poorly. What does it have to do with Professor Yan?"
Yan Dong was choked inexplicably.
Obviously, Zhou Hanzhi wanted to see my statement.
So I lowered the wine glass, bowed my body and said politely: "Mr. Zhou's words are right. I will toast you this glass of wine alone."
Before he could say anything, I drank it all in one gulp.
One cup after another.
The wine was Zhou Hanzhi's favorite Romanée-Conti, which was good, but after drinking too much, my stomach still protested.
I excused myself from the private room and lay in the bathroom retching. It took me a while to recover.
When I stumbled out of the bathroom, I heard Zhou Hanzhi's scolding voice inexplicably.
"It's just a simple meal, what are you doing with all those bells and whistles?" The man's voice was sharp, as if he was hiding a knife, and he said every word carefully: "Put this planning company on the blacklist and never cooperate again!" With you, not a single word in the 10,000-word self-reflection letter can be missing."
Planning company? Review letter?
So is Zhou Hanzhi dissatisfied with tonight's set and event arrangements?
But as an outsider, I can still give it an eighty percent rating.
Lin Xixi, the protagonist of the anniversary, obviously also enjoys it.
So what exactly is Zhou Hanzhi dissatisfied with?
Forget it, I can't just inquire about the president's thoughts.
But just as I was carefully moving away, Zhou Hanzhi's low tone reached my ears again: "Manager Meng's acting skills are getting better and better."
I stopped after hearing the sound and raised my eyes to look at Zhou Hanzhi. I saw the man leaning against the wall, his face hidden in the backlight, and only the half-burned cigarette at his fingertips glowed with dark red stars.
I was suddenly at a loss for words.
As I expected, Zhou Hanzhi has labeled me as the initiator of tonight's encounter.
There is no use in talking more.
"Why, you thought the trick last night didn't work, so you got help to find another way?"
The man walked towards me while talking, and in an instant, my whole body was shrouded in his shadow.
"Tell me, does Yandong not mind if you do that?"
