Chapter 1182: Promotion

“So comfortable!

There are too many people on the weekend, I haven’t had a chance to sit down.”

Nan Jiaojiao fanned her with her hand, “Then take a rest quickly, will it be just as busy tonight?”

“It won’t be at night.

Almost after nine o’clock, there aren’t that many people.”

“So late?”

“Yes, at eight o’clock the mall has half-price promotions on deli goods, bread, and fruits, almost all gone within half an hour, it’s much easier after that.”

Nan Jiaojiao clicked her tongue quietly, part-time work is really tough.

“I took a day off, I’ll take you to have some delicious food, as long as we’re back before eight, Jiaojiao, what do you want to eat?”

Nan Jiaojiao thought for a moment, there are so many things she usually wants to eat, but when suddenly asked, she couldn’t think of anything.

There happened to be a new hotpot restaurant across the street, she casually pointed, “Let’s have hotpot, the couple sitting next to me were also discussing going there, I heard them say the shrimp paste tastes good.”

“Alright, then wait for me a bit.”

Ye Wanting untied the apron she had to wear for work, put it in her locker, and when coming out, she specially went to the counter, it was still the same male college student Nan Jiaojiao saw that night, Ye Wanting said a few words to him, he nodded with a smile.

“Let’s go.”

It was just past five now, not many people at the hotpot restaurant, they got a spot with a view of the river, ordered, the broth was served first.

The waiter said there were free desserts, unlimited, but they had to help themselves, reminding them to take only as much as they would eat, not to waste.

Nan Jiaojiao went to get a few, when she returned, the broth was already boiling, Nan Jiaojiao put some spicy beef slices and omasum in.

“Those need to be boiled with a ladle, you put them in all at once, it’ll be hard to fish them out later.”

Ye Wanting laughed and said, “I’ll blanch a bit first, send a bowl to the guy, promised to bring him some, but better not let him eat our leftovers, might as well cook some stuff for him.”

Nan Jiaojiao sat down, placed the desserts aside, “Then cook more, he works hard manning the store alone.”

She helped with putting the food in, Ye Wanting asked the waiter for a takeout box, checked it was allowed, and began fishing out the food, meat at the bottom, topped with some vegetables, ladled in two spoonfuls of soup.

Too hot to carry, fortunately Ye Wanting brought plastic bags.

“Jiaojiao, wait for me a bit, cook what you want to eat yourself, I’ll be right back.”

Nan Jiaojiao stuffed two small cherry tomatoes to her, “Go ahead, I’ll wait for you to come back to eat, these are sweet, try them.”

Ye Wanting smiled at her, took the hotpot and left.

In less than ten minutes, she returned.

Now they could finally sit back and eat openly.

After eating, Nan Jiaojiao wasn’t planning to leave yet, she wanted to witness how exaggerated the promotional event was.

Imagined it, but when the time came, regardless of age, everyone went crazy grabbing things.

Nan Jiaojiao joined in the fun, bought a lot, she’d been eyeing the Orleans roast chicken for a long time, many people waiting at the stall, she stood at the back, anxiously tiptoeing to see the front, when it was her turn, she snagged two boxes, tied them together with red tape, marked buy one get one free.

She felt like she had scored a treasure.

After the event ended, the chefs preparing the deli gradually got off work, the night shift replacements hadn’t arrived yet, Ye Wanting had to wait.

Nan Jiaojiao couldn’t resist her drowsiness, left early.

After leaving the convenience store, she had walked a bit ahead, then turned back, stood in front of a car, tapped on the window.
