Chapter 598 Two Silent Men
The next night.
The employees of Ark Interactive Entertainment gathered together. Because of the cold weather, they chose a small restaurant not far from the company to eat. No. 100 people from the company, plus the crew and actors from Cheng Jun, happened to be sitting there. Full of two floors.
The restaurant owner started making preparations in the morning, and as soon as people arrived in the evening, the kitchen started cooking in full swing.
Xu Ye arranged Fang Yuan at his table as planned, and then asked Jiang Yu to sit next to Chen Qingqing, just enough for the two of them to sit together.
As soon as Jiang Yu sat down, she poured herself a cup of hot water, and then took a sip from time to time. From the time she sat down and arrived at the restaurant and started serving food, she didn't even turn her head to say hello to Fang Yuan next to her. Fang Yuan, a straight man next to him, also had cancer at the moment, and he also didn't dare to take the initiative to strike up a conversation.
"Um...everyone, please be quiet for a moment. I'll say a few words first."
Xu Ye felt that it was necessary to say a few words before the dinner, so he stood up and held a glass of Sprite and said: "During this period, I have seen how much everyone has paid for the company's two new projects. Today's event It’s just a simple meal to relax. I’ll wait for the game’s public beta at the end of the year and bring it up next year. I will go to a five-star hotel to hold a celebration banquet for everyone. I will also give out year-end bonuses based on merit. In addition, today is Wednesday. Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I will give everyone three days off to rest and wait for the weekend. Come back, I hope you all will keep up the good work and get the game launched smoothly as soon as possible, cheers.”
After being a boss for so many years, Xu Ye is already familiar with these words on the table.
After a few short words, the people upstairs and downstairs began to eat and drink. Chen Qingqing sat next to Jiang Yu, feeling anxious to death.
Seeing that the two of them had not spoken or even looked at each other. Halfway through the meal, Chen Qingqing reached under the table and squeezed Jiang Yu's thigh. Jiang Yu scratched his head and glanced at him, pouting. , as if to say: "How could I take the initiative?"
Chen Qingqing sighed, then raised her head and glanced at Wang Manning, who was making a video call with Jiang Chuan, and said silently in her heart: Comparing people with each other is so irritating.
If Xu Ye can arrange for the two of them to sit together, he has already completed his task. He will not add fuel to the flames on this basis. At most, he will just hint a few words, just like he hinted to Ren Fei before, but Fang Yuan is not very good in this area. Smart, he didn't expect that someone deliberately arranged to sit with Jiang Yu tonight. He still thought it was just a coincidence.
The employees of Ark Entertainment are mainly college students who have just graduated. Most of them don't know how to drink. They didn't order any wine tonight. Dinners without drinking usually end quickly. In less than an hour, there are already people downstairs. Someone left the table.
After that, people left one after another.
By half past eight, most of the people had already gone back.
Xu Ye took out one of his bank cards from Chen Qingqing's bag and handed it to Qin Zhiwei, who quickly got up and went to check out.
Cheng Jun also stood up and said with a smile: "Xu Ye, let's go back first."
"Okay, see you later."
Satisfied, Cheng Huanhuan also waved happily: "Goodbye, Uncle Xu."
"goodbye."
After Cheng Jun left, others stood up one after another and prepared to leave.
Chen Qingqing knows Jiang Yu very well.
She knew that Jiang Yu was not only dressed up but also wearing full makeup today. He obviously wanted to have a further development with Fang Yuan.
Among the four people in dormitory 205, three of them, including himself, have already found partners, but Jiang Yu is the only one left. It is said on the Internet that if you can't find someone you like in college, you can find someone you like after graduation. The probability will be smaller for people.
Jiang Yu finally found a suitable one, and Chen Qingqing didn't want her to miss it, so after seeing Cheng Jun and his family leaving, she quickly held Xu Ye's hand and said, "Why hasn't Qin Zhiwei come back yet? Let's go see him." What are you doing downstairs?"
Just as Xu Ye was about to speak, Chen Qingqing pinched him quietly with her hand.
Xu Ye understood immediately and said quickly: "Okay, I just drank too many drinks, so I went to pee on the way."
The two quickly went downstairs.
At their table, apart from Cheng Jun's family, there were only five of them, Xu Ye, Duan Wenjie and Fang Yuan.
Duan Wenjie had just left behind Cheng Jun. When Qin Zhiwei went downstairs to check out, Shen Xinyi also followed, so when Xu Ye left, there were only two people left at the table.
They are still two people who have never communicated with each other from beginning to end.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Jiang Yu froze in his seat, dazed absentmindedly.
Fang Yuan next to him saw everyone leaving, and his heart skipped a beat. Fang Yuan actually wouldn't be so embarrassed when chatting with female colleagues in the company, but there is a kind of person like this in the world. He can talk to everyone. You can chat well and get along well, but you will feel at a loss and speechless in front of the person you like. Even if you just chat for a day, you will think about it again and again before saying this.
"that……"
The two words that suddenly popped up made Jiang Yu's heart immediately twist, and even his breathing seemed to be suspended for a second.
"I...my name is Fang Yuan, your name is Jiang Yu, right?"
finally.
After deliberation for a long time, Fang Yuan took the lead in saying this opening sentence that he had rehearsed a hundred times in his mind.
Jiang Yu nodded and said yes.
Fang Yuan hurriedly opened his WeChat business card, handed the QR code to Jiang Yu, and added: "Can you add WeChat and get to know each other?"
"Oh."
Jiang Yu responded, looking at the nine dots on the screen, her brain seemed to have crashed, and she couldn't even remember the unlock password of her phone for a while.
She came to her senses and quickly drew an 'L' pattern on her phone. After unlocking her phone, she clicked on WeChat's scan and added Fang Yuan's WeChat.
Downstairs.
"Is it almost done?" Xu Ye asked.
Chen Qingqing looked at the direction of the stairs and said expectantly: "Why are you in a hurry? Wait a little longer."
Shen Xinyi also echoed: "That's right, wait a little longer."
Qin Zhiwei scratched his head and said: "They didn't talk all night, they were two completely silent people, I don't think it's going to happen now."
Shen Xinyi snorted and said: "How good were you in the beginning?"
"Uh..."
A few minutes later.
Hearing footsteps on the stairs, Xu Ye quickly pulled Chen Qingqing to the door and pretended to make a call with his mobile phone.
Qin Zhiwei was also pulled to the counter by Shen Xinyi and started chatting with the cashier.
Fang Yuan walked down and saw Xu Ye. After making a gesture of "I'll go back first", he walked out of the restaurant.
Seeing this, the four people hurried upstairs.
Seeing Jiang Yu carrying the bag expressionlessly, Chen Qingqing thought that the deal was over.
She went forward to comfort him, and Shen Xinyi followed.
The two talked for a long time, and Jiang Yu suddenly sighed and said: "You said he didn't say a word all night, like a fool, and why did he add me on WeChat in the end?"
"Huh?"
"He added you on WeChat?"
"Yeah."
Chen Qingqing and Shen Xinyi rolled their eyes at the same time, then tickled Jiang Yu's itchy flesh and said: "Then why are you pretending?"
"Itchy...haha...I was wrong...haha..."
