Chapter 4: Please treat me to a drink
Guo Pu's longed-for new life was simple. Within a month, with the fake Peking University diploma given to him by Wang Changhe, Guo Pu easily found a job at an advertising company in Beijing and became a small department head. He wouldn't go live in the huge mansion on Chang'an Avenue near Tiananmen Square that belonged to Old Man Wang, nor would he be willing to move into his future wife's luxurious villa as a kept man!
Rented a simple two-bedroom apartment near the company, commuting to and from work by bus, taking about an hour, very convenient and casual!
Guo Pu is a talented guy who relies on his mouth, and in just one month, he brought in many orders for that small advertising company. Now it can be said that his position is stable and his prestige is growing. Of course, when he couldn't get any orders at the beginning, Sister Wang Si Rui helped him a lot!
He has now fully integrated into this job and wants to make up for the four years wasted in prison!
Of course, the hatred of being framed before, he also let it go with the wind, and did not think about taking revenge, after all, a comrade-in-arms in a small group at that time, no matter what reason, was "dead" in his own hands!
The company does not provide lunch, and the boxed meals are really bad. Guo Pu can make do with anything, but he has a picky mouth. When he goes on a mission as a soldier, he even brings several flavors of compressed biscuits. In short, under limited conditions, he wants to satisfy his infinite desire for food!
Anyway, Wang Changhe deposited one million yuan into his card, enough for him to splurge!
Today was not very busy, plus the three business groups he led this month had already exceeded their tasks, so office hours were naturally much freer. At this time, it happened to be lunchtime, and Guo Pu went alone to a relatively famous French restaurant on the first floor of the company building, ready to have a good meal!
This is his first time here, and he was stopped as soon as he arrived at the entrance!
No more than that, the French are particular about romance, combined with the rigor in their bones, which led to Guo Pu's classmate, who was wearing the world's top brand men's clothing, being rejected!
Your attire is disheveled, I won't receive you!
Guo Cai really did not live up to his luxurious brand, wearing a purple shirt with the top buttons undone, revealing a white vest underneath. Although he was wearing casual pants, they were rolled up at the hem, and on his feet were a pair of flip-flops!
Can't blame him, can only blame Beijing's August and September, it's too hot! And the company's office, the rules are not strict enough! Besides, an advertising company, basically no one comes to the door! Business is all done on the run! No need for a suit and tie.
"Why won't you let me in?"
"Sir, there is a rule here, if your clothes are not tidy, we won't serve you! Please forgive us!"
"Is my shirt untidy?"
Guo Pu didn't get angry, put down his pants, buttoned up the collar of his shirt, and then, in front of the little girl, unbuttoned his pants again, tucked his shirt into his waistband, and only after doing all this did he put his hands in his pockets, narrow his eyes slightly, toss his flowing long hair, and hang a sly smile at the corner of his mouth, just like that, staring at the welcoming girl at the door!
The hostess's face turned red, and she couldn't bear to look at Guo Pu's slippers anymore. She hastily bowed her head and said: "Please come in!"
It's just lunchtime, and this restaurant is quite famous, so many white-collar workers in the area like this environment, so the restaurant is basically full of guests!
Guo Cuo's luck wasn't bad, as soon as he came in, he bumped into a couple having dinner! Without waiting for the waiter to clean up, he sat down immediately!
"Excuse me, sir, what can I get for you?"
A service staff with a decent appearance walked up to Guo Pu and politely asked.
"Snail!"
Kuo Pu turned his head and said to the other party, he only knew that snails in France are quite famous!
"......! Sir, how would you like to have it?"
The waiter was probably encountering such a straightforward customer for the first time and was momentarily stunned by Guo's words.
"How can I eat it?"
"Uh......! Can be steamed, stewed, boiled, fried...!"
"Give me one of those too, and you decide on the rest!"
The waitress almost burst out laughing, her eyes twinkling as she said: "Alright then, sir. I'll prepare a dish of orange-flavored foie gras and a French-style steak for you. Would you like a bottle of wine to go with it?"
"What wine? What kind of wine!"
"We have Lafite, Latour and Petrus here..."
"Bring me a bottle!"
Guo Pu's ordering attracted a couple sitting not far away, who couldn't help but snicker! Both were dressed in professional attire, clearly middle-management white-collar workers. The man had a look of disdain in his eyes, glanced at Guo Pu, and then whispered to the woman across from him, "In this day and age, anyone can get into such a high-end place! It's really laughable!"
The woman companion smiled softly, elegantly holding her fork and said in a low voice: "This waiter is also interesting, he doesn't have any eye color, he dares to cheat anyone, it will be fun to watch! Hehe! Lafite, let's see how he pays the bill!"
Guo Pu's ears had always been very useful, let alone speaking in such a low voice. Even if a mosquito flew by ten meters away, he could still tell whether it was male or female from the humming sound!
"Damn it! Are white-collar workers really that noble? Who do you think is inferior? Want to see me make a fool of myself? Humph, I'm also a white-collar worker!"
Kuo Pu deliberately leaned heavily on the chair, looking at the couple, with his fingers still digging into his nostrils!
"Disgusting! Screw you! You dare look down on me!"
It didn't take long for Guo Pu's dishes to be served, four snails, the plate was super large, but the quantity was extremely small, plus a piece of orange foie gras that was only about one-third the size of a fist, a French-style beef tenderloin, filled the table, and again brought a faint smile to the restaurant!
"Sir, your dishes are ready, please enjoy your meal!"
Kuo Pu looked at the shiny row of knives and forks in front of him, just about to speak, when another waitress, holding a bottle of red wine, walked over!
"Sir, I recommend you try this year's Lafite! The flavor is unique and exceptional!"
"Miss, would you mind giving me a pair of chopsticks?"
The hypocritical white-collars finally couldn't hold back their laughter! For a moment, everyone looked up, as if looking at a monster, staring at Guo Pu. In the women's eyes, there was contempt, and in the men's eyes, besides mockery, there was also a hint of disdain!
Only the single lady on Guo Pu's left, who had previously only glanced at Guo Pu, looked again at the watch on his hand and was taken aback. Her eyes added a few points of interesting meaning, as if she saw something funny! However, her smile was absolutely not mocking! But full of other flavors!
"Ha! You're so clumsy with chopsticks!"
The waiter who served the dishes was stifling a smile and heard Guo Pu mutter a sentence, then hurriedly said: "Please wait a moment, sir!"
"Is it funny?"
Guo Pu looked around and smiled, asking the waiter who was opening wine beside him: "Is it funny?"
"Hah......hahaha!"
The waitress smiled dryly and immediately lowered her head to open the wine again!
The unmarried lady suddenly stood up lightly and walked in front of Guo Pu, saying: "Sir, may I ask you to treat me to a drink?"
Guo Pu looked up and exclaimed in his heart, what a beautiful woman!
Collect it! Brothers and sisters!
