Chapter 2766: Chapter 1717: Hehe (Asking for Monthly Ticket!)

Six o’clock in the afternoon.

A well-known kebab hotpot place in Hui City.

The central red oil pot was bubbling hot, and Boss Jiang looked at the other person’s bowl.

"Are you really able to eat spicy food?"

Hui cuisine is mainly salty and fresh, even slightly sweet, but the other person had more chili peppers in their bowl than him, it was covered.

"I went to university in Sichuan and Shu, do you think I can’t handle spicy food?"

It’s Boss Jiang’s first time in Hui City, so sitting opposite him could only be the sole acquaintance he had here — the Speed delivery guy Zhao Fan, whom he just met today.

Hui City people are quite friendly and enthusiastic. He was about to leave, but the other person shared similar interests and clicked well, insisting on inviting him for dinner. Unavoidably, he had to stay, accompany the guy on deliveries until the end of the shift.

Definitely not waiting for someone

Or should we say waiting for a complaint call?

—— Simply because he couldn’t refuse such hospitality!

"You even went to university?"

Boss Jiang picked up some small chicken livers and put them in the pot, still so straightforward.

Even being teased as a single dog, he endured it. This kind of skepticism was just so-so, and after a whole afternoon of interaction, he found this guy’s words were not very pleasant, but his character was quite good, sharing similar values, suitable for his taste.

"Haha, not only did I go, but it was a second-tier university."

Zhao Fan laughed, opened a room-temperature beer on the table, "If I didn’t have an education, it’s uncertain if I could join Speed, the competition was damn fierce. When I applied, I almost got confused, a courier position had dozens of people competing, I almost thought I was applying for a civil service job."

After work, with the uniform off, words can be more free, Zhao Fan handed the opened beer to the other.

"You were employed in East Sea, you must be a college graduate too, right?"

Jiang Chen reached out to take the beer, neither conceited nor rash, "I’m from a 211 university."

Zhao Fan’s eyes widened.

"211? You’re bragging, aren’t you!"

Boss Jiang remained calm, "From East Sea University."

"..."

Although nothing was verified, he could claim to be from Qingbei himself, but for some reason, Zhao Fan felt the other wasn’t lying. It was a feeling formed after spending the afternoon together that was hard to describe.

Plus, there’s another point.

This guy was seriously emotionally stable.

No matter what the topic was, there wasn’t much fluctuation, just like now.

"If you’re really from East Sea University, then you’re quite amazing."

Zhao Fan poured bean sprouts into the pot, "But why would you deliver packages with a 211 degree? What were you thinking?"

"I’m a reserve cadre."

"Pff——"

This time it was Zhao Fan’s turn. Fortunately, he turned his head slightly, aiming towards the table edge, so the spit didn’t land in the pot.

"You shouldn’t be much younger than me, right? Still in reserves?"

"No. Promoted."

Though the words were few, Boss Jiang’s every sentence was quite essential.

Zhao Fan paused his pouring, "What? Don’t tell me you’re a ’cadre’ now..."

Jiang Chen didn’t speak, raising the disposable cup, it’s customary to drink a cup before starting with the chopsticks.

"Ahh— refreshing!"

Though it’s winter, after delivering packages all afternoon, having the beer was quite satisfying. Zhao Fan finished the cup in one go.

"What level are you now?"

He asked with a smile.

Still didn’t think the other was bragging.

Just felt they were joking together.

It’s a type of humor～

"No level can define me."

Boss Jiang truly wasn’t being polite, he dove into the feast first, pulling out a skewer of fresh beef from the pot, "I’ve had drinks with President Niu."

"..."

Zhao Fan froze.

"Brother Niu?"

Brother Niu.

The founder of Speed, Niu Jili.

This was the internal nickname for the president at Speed.

"Mm."

Boss Jiang bowed his head and started savoring Hui City’s kebab hotpot.

"Tsk..."

Zhao Fan chuckled, picked up his chopsticks, "Buddy, I’ve seen braggers, but none that can brag like you do. You’ve had drinks with Brother Niu, I’ve even dated Pei Yunxi."

"I’m not bragging, you’re the one bragging."

Boss Jiang chewed the beef nuggets in his mouth.

Not bad.

Tastes good.

See.

Isn’t this guy really interesting?

Zhao Fan’s face beamed, "I’m not bragging either. I’m telling you, Pei Yunxi and I were desk mates in junior high, you get it..."

"Your behavior is slandering someone’s reputation. If the person involved finds out, you’d be legally responsible."

Zhao Fan was indifferent, "I’m not easily intimidated. If you can, get Pei Yunxi to sue me. Only you can brag, but I can’t?"

"Forget it, I forgive you."

"..."

Zhao Fan burst out laughing, reached out to grab some food, "What do I need your forgiveness for?"

"I can make a call and have Pei Yunxi come over."

Only took a sip of beer, how did it lead to this dream talk?

Though from everywhere, both were Han people, when Han people drink and have hot pot, what else to do than brag?

"Come on, call her over. I haven’t seen my junior high classmate for a while, it’d be nice to reminisce, talk about the green years."

"Stop bragging."

???

Who started bragging first?

"I’m not bragging. If you can, call her."

"I won’t call."

"You’re the one bragging."

Zhao Fan lifted his glass to indicate, "Look at your abilities, you know all the powerful figures in the world."

Though it was humorous, Boss Jiang understood manners, quickly raised a cup in response, casually joking, but behaviorally giving the other full respect.

Perhaps this was why they met today and he was willing to invite Jiang for hotpot.

In this society, there are too many people who are deceitful.

"I do know many powerful individuals, but they all say I’m amazing."

"Cough cough cough—"

Zhao Fan coughed suddenly, his neck strained with the beer choking him, when he caught his breath, his face red, he said: "Buddy, I’ll give you a suggestion, try participating in a stand-up comedy show, you might become an overnight sensation, better future than delivering packages."

Boss Jiang pushed some napkins over, "Then you need to join me. Stand-up comedy is too challenging alone, form a CP and it’s twice the result with half the effort."

"Hahaha..."

Zhao Fan laughed uncontrollably, wiping his mouth while genuinely saying, "With talent like yours, it’s a waste doing hard labor, really, just choose the right field, you’ll definitely do better than now."

"I’ll consider it."

Boss Jiang simply said: "Name the group Fan Chen Combo."

Zhao Fan laughed, didn’t take it seriously.

"Fan Chen? You mean Jiang Chen?"

"Chen. As in star Chen."

"Jiang Chen."

Zhao Fan murmured, "Hmm, this time I’ll remember it. Next time I meet Brother Niu, I’ll definitely talk about you."

"And I will talk to Yun Xi about you."

A clash of equals.

A meeting of talents.

Just like today’s unexpected kebab hotpot meal.

Who says life is forever unchanging?

"Your Yun Xi will surely get a lawyer’s letter."

Zhao Fan beamed.

"Actually, privately, I call her Xi Xi."

Hee hee?

"Brother, I admit, your skills surpass mine."

Zhao Fan finally conceded, "Come, let’s drink!"
