Chapter 283: The Arrogant Man

It was a little funny.

“I’ll start to eat now.” Wu Hai said simply and didn’t answer Ling Hong anymore.

“Alright. You must have died from hunger in your previous existence. I’m leaving now. The envious sight of those people almost killed me.” Ling Hong shrugged. Customers waiting outside had indeed waited for too long.

While Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was bustling due to the new dishes, Wu Zhou was likewise doing publicity for Yuan Zhou free of charge at the other side.

“Wang Nan, shall we go to eat together?” Wu Zhou tilted his head and said to the person beside him.

The IT company where Wu Zhou worked belonged to a very large company and the office here was only a branch. The person beside him wore a short-sleeve checkered shirt and had a crew cut. His complexion appeared to be that of a typical programmer, being pale and weak.

This person had just joined in the company and was arranged to work under Wu Zhou by chance.

“Humm?” Wang Nan raised his head with a slower pace.

“Even if we are working overtime, we have to eat first. Man can’t work without eating food. Let’s go for the meal. I’m taking you to that small restaurant today and I’m sure you will be reluctant to leave.” Wu Hai patted on his chest confidently.

“Huh, are you treating?” Zhao Yingjun raised the head and asked at the other side.

“Of course. Wang Nan is new here and naturally I will treat,” Wu Zhou answered squarely.

However, he still felt a little heartache. The pocket money given by his girlfriend was going to become less again.

“You are really not a nice guy. You don’t even treat this brother of yours.” Zhao Yingjun said with an evil laugh.

“Go away. I’m asking Wang Nan now.” Wu Hai waved his hand with a manner of contempt.

“Well, sorry. Thanks so much, but I don’t want to go.” On Wang Nan’s pale face appeared a flush. He seemed to have made great efforts to refuse Wu Zhou.

“No need to hold back. This guy Wu was rarely so generous. Go now,” Zhao Yingjun also tried to persuade him.

“Sorry.” Wang Nan apologized numbly, not looking at the other person at all, with his head lowered.

“Huh, never mind. It’s not a big event. You decide. Then we’ll go to eat. Let’s get together next time.” Having caught sight of Wang Nan’s decisive manner, Wu Zhou stopped persuading him and then said smilingly.

“I’m leaving. Don’t you want to eat? Come on.” Wu Zhou signaled Zhao Yingjun to follow him quickly.

Zhao Yingjun nodded the head and cleared away the stuff before he stood up and walked out of the company with Wu Hai.

“Hooo. Sigh…” Seeing them leave, Wang Nan let out a sigh of relief and then sighed.

Having been here in the company for a week, he nevertheless only talked with Wu Zhou who was teaching him and Zhao Yingjun who’s seated closer to him as well as with his senior leader.

“God knows if I can go back later,” Wang Nan looked at the surroundings and said with a low voice.

After they walked out of the company, Zhao Yingjun was nevertheless a little dissatisfied, “This guy is too … You know it, right?”

“Easy. He’s only a little reserved.” Wu Zhou answered, appearing to know him very much.

“Do you think so?” Zhao Yingjun was a little suspicious.

After all, Wang Nan seldom talked in normal times and he really didn’t know about his character.

Wu Zhou recalled the occasion when Wang Nan wanted to go to the bathroom last time. As he had just gave him a repair task, Wang Nan straightforwardly worked until the afternoon without telling him anything. If not that Wu Zhou saw him look not good and hence asked him, he would have never known about that.

Speaking of the reason, it was quite simple. He was too shy to say that, hence forced it back until the last minute. He seldom got along with other colleagues in normal times and thus knew only a few people even after one week, which was all seen by Wu Zhou.

“He does a good job and has a first-class ability. It’s just that he’s much too reserved and doesn’t tell others when he has something in the heart. Probably, he hasn’t got used to the new surroundings yet. He’s said to be from the branch company of Lingnan district,” Wu Zhou said to the point.

“He is working under you now. You naturally know him better than others do.” Zhao Yingjun had essentially grumbled about the new staff for the sake of Wu Zhou. Anyway, it was good since the guy wasn’t that kind of person.
