Cyber Ghosts Chapter 69 You're Considerate

It was dinner time in a private room.

"Come on, help yourself. Order whatever you want." Zhou Yuan had a smile on his face as he pointed to the menu and said to Liu Shuai and Hao Ning. "Don't fight with me over the bill today. I'll pay for it. Otherwise, we are no more friends."

Liu Shuai originally planned to say something, but upon hearing Zhou Yuan's words, he laughed and said, "Hey, you're stubborn. Then let's do it. I'll treat you next time."

"Save it to the next time." Zhou Yuan laughed as he stood up, then he opened the door of the private room and called the waiter. "Please bring us some tissues. Thank you."

Seeing how polite Zhou Yuan was, and recalled his careless figures during the past two weeks, it seemed to Hao Ning that Zhou Yuan was an entirely different person.

Liu Shuai was starving at this time, so he did not notice these details. Looking at the dazzling menu, he gulped a mouthful of saliva and frowned as he said, "I'm hungry. Everything seems delicious to me." Then, he looked at Hao Ning, "Your body is weak, and you are on a diet. So, you should order the dishes?"

"Actually, it's not that my body is weak …" Hao Ning suddenly thought back to what Yan had told him before, that his Imbedding Body was different from others. Not only were there two types of genes in his body, but there was also the remnant soul of his brother who had died before he was even born. Hence, he had the talent of "Borrow Your Mana." At the same time, Yan had unintentionally said: "One gulp of wine is equivalent to a one-year deduction of your lifespan." Since Hao Ning was in a hurry to save Zhou Yuan, he did not ask more, but after Zhou Yuan was saved, Yan had disappeared anyway.

"What are you thinking?" Liu Shuai saw that Hao Ning was staring at the menu and did not say a word, so he pushed him a little, "Order some food."

Hao Ning came back from his thoughts. Since overthinking would be fruitless, and he had coincidentally drunk some alcohol in the past, he did not care about the prohibitions a lot, at most he would not drink anymore. Looking at the menu, he was no longer in the mood to order, so he handed it over to Zhou Yuan, "Your treat, so you should order."

Zhou Yuan looked at Hao Ning. Although he did not know why Hao Ning's mood suddenly dropped, he knew that it was related to what Liu Shuai had said just now. Thus, he smiled and said, "Fine, I'll do it."

Zhou Yuan then accepted the menu. While looking at the menu, he said, "It's not important whether your body is good or not. You should eat well no matter you are strong or weak. Let's have these dishes. What do you think?"

After the waiter finished repeating the names of the dishes, Hao Ning realized that they were all things that he liked to eat very much, and there was even a seaweed egg soup at the end. It had been a long time since Hao Ning had tasted this soup, but because there were very few people who like it, he didn't order it in ordinary cases, but Zhou Yuan ordered it.

As expected, after the waiter left, Liu Shuai took a sip of tea and said to Zhou Yuan, "You know how to order dishes. Those food are all very delicious, but the last seaweed egg soup is not very popular. People usually order other kinds."

"Why, don't you like the soup?" Zhou Yuan smiled as he looked at Liu Shuai.

Liu Shuai laughed and spread out his hands, "No way, I already said it. I'm hungry. Anything will taste good to me."

"That's good," Zhou Yuan smiled as he looked at Hao Ning, "Hao Ning likes this soup. It's just that he hardly ordered it before."

Hao Ning was surprised. "How did you know that? I didn't tell you I liked it, did I? " Then, he asked Liu Shuai, "Do you know why I like this soup?"

"Buzz," Liu Shuai looked at Hao Ning, "How would I know about it? You always ordered corn and sparerib soup before, didn't you?"

After saying that, Liu Shuai also felt it was strange. He looked at Zhou Yuan and asked, "How do you know?"

"It's very easy," Zhou Yuan laughed, "When we just met, we once had a meal together. When Hao Ning was ordering, he looked at the bottom left corner of the menu for a long time, but after hesitating, he still didn't order and gave the menu to someone else. At the bottom left corner of that page, there was only one dish, seaweed egg soup."

"Jesus!" Liu Shuai exclaimed in surprise. He realized that his voice was a bit loud, and he turned his head to check whether the door was closed. He felt that he lost his poise a bit. Thus, he asked Hao Ning, "Is this true?"

"Err …" Hao Ning was also obviously surprised. If Zhou Yuan did not mention this matter, he had already forgotten about it, but yes, he tended to order popular dishes when he ate with new colleagues, so it was possible for him to not order seaweed egg soup after staring at the menu. It was just that after such a long time, how did Zhou Yuan remember that?

Hao Ning thought for a while, then replied, "Probably, but after so long, Zhou Yuan, how do you remember it?"

Zhou Yuan laughed and helped the two of them infill some tea, "I don't know, but in the past few days, I seem to have the ability to learn some details unintentionally, find out others' preferences, and say and do what they like the most."

"Could this be —" Hao Ning opened his mouth, but did not know how to describe it. Suddenly, he remembered something, and said tentatively, "So, today in the company, you, the director, and Mr. Guo …"

Hao Ning seemed to be unsure and did not continue. Liu Shuai also had some questions in his heart, but he didn't know what Hao Ning's previous words had to do with it. Hence, he also looked at Zhou Yuan, waiting for his reply.

"The director and I are not at odds, are we?" Zhou Yuan laughed, "I was arguing with the director earlier, but according to what you guys have said, he was still willing to give me a chance. It proved that he didn't want to drive me away. The reason he wanted to treat us to a meal is that I made many improvements recently, and I can feel that he is under much pressure, probably because our products are criticized for their design. However, my recent products received some positive comments."

"Is that so?" Liu Shuai thought about it for a moment, but he did not seem to hear anything related to this matter." Did that happen during the past one or two weeks? How come I didn't know about it at all? "

"Maybe it's because we've been dealing with ghosts and gods for the past two weeks …" Hao Ning thought for a while and smiled in relief. In the past few weeks, he had gotten to know Zhang Quan, found Zhang Chi Hang, subdued Xiao Hong, and then went to the Dragon King's Temple to fetch the Immortal Tying Rope. Thinking back on these significant events, it didn't feel like two or three weeks, but a few years.

Liu Shuai also understood that besides work, he had no other interests in the past few weeks. So, he continued to ask, "And what happened after that?"

"After that, I discussed some design trends with him, as well as my improvements and effects prediction towards the overall picture style of our products. At the same time, I showed him some plans that I had designed after working for the past few days, "Zhou Yuan tried to recall. "Laode was a person who valued talent. He was very interested in my proposals, so he took me to discuss with the CEO."

Hao Ning nodded his head. Since start-up companies were usually not big, it was normal for directors to discuss with the boss about new ideas. It was just that how well this design work should be, that it caused the director to take Zhou Yuan to CEO's place immediately after he saw it? Thinking about this question, Hao Ning looked at Zhou Yuan, waiting for him to continue.
