Chapter 6
Xia Haizhou was still a little nervous. After sitting down, he felt that his hands and feet had no place to rest. "Hello, Mr. Zheng." He said a little cautiously, "I'm sorry for giving you trouble before."
Zheng Ran waved his hand and asked the waiter to bring the menu.
Seeing that the person was obviously not interested in this topic, Xia Haizhou shut his mouth shut, took a look at the menu handed over, and saw that it was full of incomprehensible letters, and his mind exploded.
On the other side, Zheng Ran has already spoken a string of English fluently... Uh, it should be English, right?Xia Haizhou didn't quite know what English, French, and German were. Anyway, they were all astronomy that he didn't understand.But he also had a way to deal with it, so he calmly said to the waiter: "Please bring me the same."
The real embarrassment came after the waiter had left.
Xia Haizhou is definitely not an acquaintance, especially when he is with a stranger he met for the first time, the embarrassment is almost overflowing.If it were someone else, he could still deal with it with a cold and cold appearance, but this person in front of him is his current boss, and no matter how low his emotional intelligence is, he knows that he can't treat him as usual.This situation is too embarrassing for a socially awkward person, Xia Haizhou's scalp is tight.
"you……"
"you……"
The two spoke almost in unison.Xia Haizhou stopped immediately, wanting to hear what the Boss had to say, but the people on the other side also fell silent.
This silent fermenting atmosphere really makes people want to run away.Hey, it's too uncomfortable, hurry up and retreat after eating!Xia Haizhou prayed in his heart.
"What do you want to say?" Zheng Ran asked after a few breaths.
"Oh, I just want to thank Mr. Zheng. Not only did you not blame me for the trouble you caused, but you also gave me a valuable job opportunity. I will definitely work hard to repay you."
After finishing speaking, Xia Haizhou noticed that Zheng Ran was looking at him silently. His eyes gave him a...very focused feeling. There was no arrogance or indifference of the superior to the inferior, but very equal, and he could even feel the arrogance from the other party. Encouragement and comfort in the eyes.
This eased Xia Haizhou's unnaturalness a little, and he felt that at least he had said the right thing.
"To tell you the truth, if I hadn't signed Xingxing, I should go back to my hometown now, and I might just find something to do." He continued without words.
"That's lucky."
"Yes, I feel very lucky." Xia Haizhou said affirmatively.Looking back, I still find it unbelievable, something that I could never have dreamed of before: the most reliable brokerage company, the best broker, a comfortable residence, all the good things hit him on the head, and he was almost stunned.
"No." Zheng Ran said calmly, "I mean Xingxing, I am very lucky to have you join me."
Xia Haizhou was taken aback by these words, and he opened his mouth in surprise, quite flattered: "This...you are really flattering yourself." He is an unknown little artist, what can he do!
"I believe this is an arrangement of God's will." Zheng Ran added, although his tone was flat, it somehow gave people a feeling that he was very sure.
Xia Haizhou felt a little strange in his heart, and he couldn't say anything, so he showed a stiff but polite smile, and took a sip from the goblet next to him, which was filled with something.
Well, judging by the taste, it is white wine. It has a good taste, light and slightly sweet and sour. It should not be cheap, right?Don't waste it!he thought.The key point is that the wine tastes so mellow that you don't feel like drinking it continuously.
"What are your hobbies?" Xia Haizhou heard Zheng Ran ask.
"Listen to all kinds of music, read books, watch movies." He replied.In short, it's home.
"Well, I heard that you are a top student at the XX Conservatory of Music."
"It's not a high-achieving student." Xia Haizhou quickly denied, "My college grades are quite average."
"I don't know much about the art test in China. It is said that the test is difficult?"
"It's okay." Xia Haizhou drank the last sip of wine in his glass and said, "Anyway, I passed the exam quite smoothly, but I have heard of people who failed the exam several times."
"Did you learn music since you were a child?" Zheng Ran raised the wine bottle and poured wine into Xia Haizhou's empty glass.
Embarrassed, Xia Haizhou reached out to stop him, but he didn't stop him. He glanced at the opposite side and found that the wine in the other party's glass was still at the original level, as if a drop hadn't moved.
"Well, I've learned a little bit, and I made another surprise attack in the second year of high school."
While Xia Haizhou was answering, the waiter served the food.A small piece of golden-fried meat was placed on a large plate, and the tempting aroma of meat penetrated into the nose.
Zheng Ran picked up the knife and fork, and cut it gracefully. Xia Haizhou followed suit. He didn't know how to use a knife and fork, but he just found it difficult. Moreover, it was such a small piece that his tongue didn't taste it, and it disappeared after a few bites. up.
“The foie gras here is not bad.”
"Yes, yes." Xia Haizhou agreed emotionally.
Zheng Ran looked at him, and said in a positive tone: "You are not used to eating."
"It's okay, uh, to be honest, it's a little bit." After the words came out, Xia Haizhou felt that he was too ignorant of flattery. You dare to be picky when the boss treats you to dinner?So I hurried to make a supplement: "The food is still delicious, but this place is too high-end, and I have never been to such a place."
"Then change to one you like next time." Zheng Ran answered, as if it was a matter of course.
What?And next time? !
Xia Haizhou was terrified.
It should be just casually saying... right?The president is so busy with his affairs that he has no time to have dinner with his employees every day!
Picking up the wine glass casually, he drank a couple of sips of wine to suppress his shock. The white wine had a strong stamina, and Xia Haizhou's drinking capacity was very average, and he was already a little light at the moment.
"Have you been to Japan before?" Zheng Ran suddenly asked.
Xia Haizhou widened his eyes and nodded: "I went there once three years ago, how do you know?"
"Before artists formally sign contracts with the company, the company will collect their past information in advance to obtain necessary information."
Right.
Xia Haizhou expressed his understanding.
but--
"I went to Japan that time for tourism, not for work."
"By the way, let's understand together."
"Oh."
Such a detailed investigation, he guessed dazedly, maybe the company also investigated how many bowls of rice he ate, how many hours he slept, how many times he went to the toilet every day, right?
Haha, no, no.
Zheng Ran asked, "Is Japan fun?"
"It's fun, but I only went to Kyoto, so I didn't have fun."
Probably the alcohol played a role, Xia Haizhou began to feel a little hot, but the shirt and suit on his body were straight, making it even more stuffy.He couldn't help but loosen his tie to let some air in his neck.
Zheng Ran stared at the small piece of skin for two seconds, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Then let's go next time."
"It's too expensive, and my savings will be spent in one trip."
"Don't worry, it's the company's welfare." Zheng Ran licked his lower lip cryptically.
