I Eat Fried Chicken at People's Square, Wen Ruan VS Xu Qing

Thursday, August 3, 2023, cloudy, 25~35℃.

Beicheng Garden Residential Area.

"Ring ring—"

The alarm clock rang for quite a while.

A slender, pale arm reached out and, after fumbling around for a while, finally managed to turn off the alarm clock.

Soon, the soft snoring resumed.

After a while, the shrill alarm clock rang again.

Finally, they managed to wake Xu Qing up.

A fluffy head poked out from under the summer blanket, its fluffy hair like a cotton candy blooming in the morning mist, with a few strands sticking up unruly.

She suddenly sat up in bed, stretching like a lazy kitten.

The cartoon pajamas hung loosely on her body, revealing a large expanse of fair skin at the collar.

You can still vaguely see the outline of a B-cup, as smooth as a freshly peeled egg.

"It's all Yan Yan's fault!" Xu Qing pouted and rubbed her cheek.

Last night, for some reason, my best friend, who had been feeling down lately, suddenly became happy.

Not only did we play cosplay games together, but we also ate snacks and watched TV shows together until late at night.

This was the first time Shen Yuyan had felt so relaxed and happy since leaving her job at a foreign company to start her own business.

Of course, Miss Xu Qing was even happier!

Her best friend lent her 400,000 yuan so she could acquire shares in Fanfu Suzi Media.

From a humble laborer, he rose to become a capitalist.

Absolutely unbeatable!

If the company really succeeds in the future, then she can be called "Bai Fumei Qing Qing"!

When the time comes, if you see a cosplay outfit you like, just place an order!

Order the top-of-the-line Milk Tea!

No need to worry about Thursdays at KFC, you can eat your Original Recipe Chicken!

Xu Qing excitedly jumped off the bed, shuffled to the window in her slippers, and laughed loudly several times with her hands on her hips.

Oh wait, today is Thursday! We have to have a big lunch to celebrate!

Humming a song as she changed her clothes, Xu Qing picked up her Mobile Phone and paused, her expression momentarily blank.

Holy crap! Tang Song actually messaged me first?

Is he going to apologize to me?

This guy kissed his own cheek at the company last time, and then denied it afterwards.

I kindly took cosplay photos for him, but the reply I received was, "Qing Qing, don't bother me while I'm studying!"

These past few days, she has deliberately ignored him.

Is this why she finally couldn't sit still and wanted to win me back? Hmph!

Xu Qing opened the message notifications, and several messages came into view, sent early this morning.

[Tang Song: "I haven't been studying lately, so you can send me more cosplay pictures."]

[Tang Song: "Also, I'd really like to adopt one of these adorable stray cats. How much do you think would be a reasonable price?"]

[Tang Song: Video Screenshot. jpg]

Looking at the shameful photo of the Cat Girl kneeling on the ground below, Xu Qing screamed "Ahhhhh!"

"You despicable Scheming Yan! You, you, you! How could you—"

Thinking about all the nonsense I said last night.

With a "bang".

Xu Qing slammed her fist on her head, seeing stars.

My illustrious reputation, that of Miss Xu Qing, is ruined in an instant!

This feeling of social annihilation made her wish she could dig a hole and crawl into it.

He lay on the bed, buried his face in the pillow, and hummed and groaned for a while.

Xu Qing suddenly stood up, grabbed her messy hair, and stormed out the door!

He shoved open the master bedroom door and yelled, "Scheming Yan! Get out here!"

Then, I saw the empty bed.

"You ran away? Damn it! I'm going to spray all your sunscreen spray all over myself, and I'm going to use your serum, and I'm going to..."

Just as she was venting her anger with shouts, the door was suddenly opened.

"What else do you want?" Shen Yuyan, dressed in gym clothes, walked in.

Upon hearing the sound, Xu Qing rushed out of the bedroom and pounced on him like a husky.

"Hey, hey, hey, speak properly, don't grab the bear!"

"Who gave you permission to send that short video to Tang Song?!"

"It's just a cosplay video, right? You've made so many before... Ouch, that hurts!"

"How can that be the same? You tricked me into acting, it's so embarrassing! Don't I have any dignity? Ugh! I'm so angry!"

Knowing she was in the wrong, and having just finished exercising, Shen Yuyan didn't resist much, letting Xu Qing ravage her and vent her anger.

After the two best friends had been making a fuss for a while, the living room finally quieted down.

Xu Qing Dudu a few complaints before going to the toilet and washing up.

Watching her best friend's retreating figure, Shen Yuyan gathered her disheveled hair and couldn't help but sigh.

Xu Qing was well aware of Tang Song's fondness for him.

Actually, if her best friend were with him, she could give up.

Given their long-standing relationship, Xu Qing becoming Tang Song's girlfriend would allow him to leverage her influence as well.

However, because Tang Song already has a girlfriend named "Xiao Jing", Xu Qing is hesitant to face the situation and would never take the initiative to steal her boyfriend.

I posted the video last night to create some opportunities for them.

That's just how it is; everyone is vying for high-quality resources.

Tang Song was probably the most mysterious, outstanding, and powerful man she had met over the years.

If Xu Qing still can't get over that mental hurdle, she might have to take the stage herself.

Keep it up, Qing Qing!

Yuhua Business Building, Fanfu Suzi Media.

Good morning, Qing Qing.

Good morning.

Xu Qing walked to her workstation with a sweet smile on her face, greeting everyone along the way.

Turn on your computer and start your workday.

She has been working at the Ordinary People for over a month and has completely integrated into it.

I spend half the day working, and in the afternoon Pat Pat write, occasionally jotting down short clips for dramas.

As a seasoned, struggling writer, she discovered that she had quite a talent for it.

The short drama has a short shooting cycle, taking only about a week from the start of filming to the end; the production is also fast, with editing completed in about a month.

In terms of plot, each episode is usually 2 minutes long, and a short drama has about 80 episodes.

Each episode only has 500 words, and the whole article is only 40,000 words.

Her online novels contain exaggerated light novel elements and are often criticized for their illogical plots.

Although there weren't any basic issues like the "Los Angeles First People's Hospital" incident, there are always some bugs when it comes to interpersonal relationships and business logic.

However, these are nothing in the context of short dramas!

So melodramatic! The more melodramatic the better! Twists and turns! No logic needed, just mindless fun!

The protagonist must be a rich heiress or a billionaire, with assets in the hundreds of millions, and often say things like "I can spend my hundred million pocket money however I want" or "A domineering CEO falls in love with an ordinary me without thinking."

In this respect, Guo Liyuan's classmate really understands her quite well.

Isn't this exactly what she excels at?

The novel I'm currently writing features two male protagonists in similar situations.

Hmph, Little Songzi wants to adopt me?

If he really dares to make this request to my face, I'll just ask for a whopping 100 million!

4 p. m.

Xu Qing yawned, took out a packet of instant coffee from the drawer, and was about to get up to get hot water.

Her male colleague, Li Shubin, placed a cup of Cotti in front of her. "I bought two cups online. I can't finish this one, so could you help me finish it?"

Xu Qing's eyes lit up instantly. "That's great! Raw Coconut Latte, my favorite! Bin!"

You're welcome.

Li Shubin was a colleague I met on my first day at the company. They were both legal specialists and he was very enthusiastic.

I helped her a lot at work, and I would occasionally share snacks with her.

Xu Qing took the coffee and sipped it with relish.

Lost in thought, she swallowed a Raw Coconut Latte.

Li Shubin, sitting next to her, tapped on her table and gave her a bright smile. "Friendly reminder, there's a lucky draw under the coffee shop. Check if you've won anything."

"Huh?" Xu Qing blinked, held up her coffee cup high, and saw a note stuck to the bottom.

I opened it and saw a message on the top that read, "Congratulations, you've won the [V Me 50 Award]!"

Li Shubin stretched out a hand and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, give me 50!"

"Hey, Bin, you're playing dirty tricks, aren't you? No money!"

Several male colleagues behind him also came over and made a few jokes with laughter.

No one in the company knows about her Equity Incentive plan yet.

However, because of her lively and lovely personality and beautiful appearance, she is very popular in the company.

She was especially popular with her male colleagues.

As the group was laughing and joking, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Xu Qing quietly raised her head, and then her eyes suddenly widened.

A handsome young man appeared in the corridor at some point.

He was wearing a loose-fitting solid-color turtleneck T-shirt and casual trousers. He had a straight figure, handsome features, and an excellent temperament.

His gaze was gentle and indifferent as he calmly passed by their workstations.

Those who had gathered around Xu Qing immediately returned to their positions, holding their breath and focusing intently on their work.

As a Series A investor, everyone in the company naturally knows each other.

Xu Qing's heart skipped a beat as she watched Tang Song's retreating figure.

He usually tells me before he arrives so I can pick him up. Why did he suddenly come over today?

That makes sense, he's a company owner now, coming here is like coming to his own company, so there's no need for such formalities.

But why aren't you talking to me?

They said they wanted to adopt him this morning!

Is it because you saw me playing with other male colleagues that you were unhappy?

After sitting at her workstation in a daze for a while, Xu Qing bit her thin lips, feeling a little anxious and uncertain.

What?! I have nothing to do with them!

I'm ignoring you!

Xu Qing sat up straight and began to "work seriously," but her eyes kept glancing towards the office.

Before we knew it, it was past 5 o'clock.

Li Shubin whispered, "Qing Qing, how about we go to the KFC next door tonight? Same set meal as last week?"

"No, Bin, I won't go." Xu Qing shook her head listlessly.

"Uh, okay." Li Shubin hesitated for a moment, then had no choice but to give up.

This colleague has a really nice personality. In the past, if I asked her to have a meal with me, she would usually agree happily, especially on Crazy Thursday, when we would definitely go shopping at KFC.

I don't know what's wrong with me today.

Xu Qing wiggled her bottom at her workstation and glanced in the direction of the office.

I hesitated for a long time.

She opened WeChat and left a message for Tang Song: "I've been reborn! Reborn to the day before my best friend slandered and defamed me. In my previous life, my best friend betrayed me and spread my videos like wildfire in our circle. I didn't fight back because I was soft-hearted. In this life, I've been reborn and will bravely fight back. VIP me 50 times, treat me to KFC, and listen to my revenge plan, how about it?"

After sending the message, I did not receive a reply immediately.

Xu Qing once again fell into a state of anxiety and uncertainty.

General Manager's Office.

"The Yannan Short Drama Base is impressive; it was jointly developed by Handing Group and Yan Province Cultural Tourism Investment Group..."

"Currently, finding a venue is indeed the most troublesome thing for us, and this short drama base is the first of its kind in Yancheng..." "The first phase has more than 100 Micro-Drama scenes, all in a modern style, which can basically cover all the needs of urban short dramas, which happens to be within our business scope..."

Guo Liyuan recounted what she knew and looked up at Tang Song opposite her.

Every time we meet, I have to exclaim, "Wow, he's so handsome!"

He had a straight nose, thin lips, and a face as fair as jade.

Being around a boss like this is a visual treat, and conversations with him are never boring.

Tang Song nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "I understand."

He attaches great importance to the short drama base project.

After all, it concerns growth tasks and can be linked with Ordinary People.

Moreover, I, Ordinary People, had previously been invited to visit that film and television base.

I came here today to talk to Guo Liyuan, an industry insider, and to see if she is good enough as a simple filming location.

"Buzz buzz buzz—" The Mobile Phone in my pocket suddenly vibrated.

Tang Song took it out and looked at it, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

Well, it seems this Cat Girl maid is really angry with her best friend; she's even started writing jokes about it.

However, since he started losing weight and working out, he hasn't eaten hamburgers or fries anymore.

I really want to eat it.

Moreover, with the buff provided by Wen Ruan [Metabolism Rate Optimization], he no longer needs to worry too much about what he eats.

As long as you don't overeat, you'll maintain a good figure.

After chatting with Guo Liyuan for a few more minutes, Tang Song got up to say goodbye and walked outside.

After walking along the corridor for a while, I turned a corner and saw Xu Qing at her workstation.

He was slumped over the white desk, looking sullen, and seemed to be muttering something to himself.

Tang Song couldn't help but smile.

I just saw her looking so adorably smug in the company office area, surrounded by male colleagues, and I couldn't resist teasing her.

It seems to be working very well.

His reappearance instantly silenced the office area.

Xu Qing, who was lying down, seemed to sense something and quickly raised her head to look in this direction.

Their eyes met, and she was initially delighted, but then quickly turned her head away, put on a serious face, and started typing away on the keyboard.

"Tap tap tap—" Tang Song arrived at her workstation, and her colleagues around her immediately sat up straight.

Some were quick-witted and took the initiative to greet him, saying, "Chairman Tang."

Xu Qing stopped what she was doing and glanced at her sideways.

Tang Song patted her on the shoulder and Wei Xiao, saying, "Let's go, I'll treat you to KFC, and I'll also listen to your revenge plan."

Xu Qing's eyes lit up, she wiggled her little bottom, and said in a low voice, feigning modesty, "It's not time to get off work yet."

"Okay, then let's eat together again next time." Tang Song made a move to turn around.

Xu Qing's expression froze for a moment, and she stood up abruptly, stammering, "Well... I've finished all my work. I'll just tell President Guo, and we can go eat first."

Let's go.

Xu Qing quickly grabbed her bag, stuffed her Mobile Phone inside, and hurried after him.

Watching the two figures leave.

The colleagues around him looked at each other in bewilderment.

Most of the people in the Ordinary People are young people under 30.

A beautiful woman like Xu Qing, with such a good personality, and especially since she's General Manager Guo Liyuan's college classmate, has many male admirers.

However, judging from the situation just now, the relationship between this investor and her is clearly not ordinary.

Li Shubin and the others lowered their heads, instantly forgetting their own little thoughts.

In the quiet underground parking garage.

Xu Qing opened the passenger door of the Mercedes-Benz and got in, secretly glancing at Tang Song in the driver's seat.

She tossed her hair and explained in a low voice, "Um... when you came in just now, I was chatting with my colleagues about Crazy Thursday."

"Um."

Xu Qing pouted and continued, "Last night's video was just me and Yan Yan playing around. Who would have thought she would send it to you? How awful."

Tang Song turned his head and smiled, "I think it's quite interesting. How about we play again next time? I really like cats."

"Ah!" Xu Qing's face instantly turned red and hot, and she stammered, "I don't want to! You can't."

That kind of shameful game is fine for personal amusement, but what if you played it with Tang Song?

Xu Qing shivered, feeling her whole body start to heat up.

"Why not?" Tang Song leaned slightly toward her.

"No way! I don't want to be a maid!" Xu Qing shook her head vigorously, clutching her bag tightly with both hands.

Seeing her timid appearance, Tang Song chuckled and leaned over.

Xu Qing exclaimed "Ah!" and quickly shrank back, thinking that Tang Song was about to force a kiss on her again.

But then he simply pulled out the seatbelt and fastened it for himself.

Their eyes met, and the two were only a dozen centimeters apart.

The fresh scent of Tang Song flowers wafted onto her face, tickling and giving her a strange feeling.

Looking at the Tang Song so close at hand, Xu Qing felt somewhat dazed.

Beneath his high, straight nose, his thin lips were slightly upturned, carrying a faint smile.

Her hair was jet black and clear, and her eyes, as dark as ink, were deep and bright.

Long, slender, fair fingers with distinct knuckles gripped the black leather steering wheel.

She exudes a confident, composed, and noble air.

At this moment, he resembled the gentle and handsome male protagonist she described in her novel.

In an instant, the stars shifted and the world spun.

When she came to her senses, her gaze sharpened and her expression became composed.

She has reached the highest level of cosplay, transforming directly into the great lawyer Xu Yanqing!

Xu Qing gradually relaxed and sat up straight.

"Where should we eat?"

Xu Qing sat up straight, her face only a few centimeters away from Tang Song's.

She raised her chin slightly and said in a calm voice, "Let's go to the KFC at People's Square."

Hmph, who do I, Xu Qing, think I am? If I'm going on a date, I'll go to the biggest KFC in Yancheng!

Let's go! Young and handsome male lead! Take me to eat Original Recipe Chicken!

Their eyes met for a few seconds.

Looking at Xu Qing, who had suddenly become strange.

Tang Song blinked and kissed her on her cute face.

A "pop" sound rang out.

A faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, and the skin feels soft and delicate.

The sudden scene completely broke Xu Qing's composure; her expression froze instantly, and her heart pounded wildly.

Xu Qing covered her face with both hands, lowered her head, and stammered, "You... you... you... what are you doing!"

Seeing that Xu Qing had returned to normal, Tang Song smiled and said, "It's alright, let's go."

"Boom!" The headlights came on.

The car slowly started moving and headed towards People's Square.

Recalling the close eye contact and the sudden kiss.

Xu Qing, sitting in the passenger seat, covered her flushed face, feeling completely dizzy.

Ugh! What do you mean, "It's nothing"?!

Does that mean you can just kiss me randomly for no reason?

That wretched little Songzi! He bullies me just like that Scheming Yan!

In Yancheng, at the end of the workday, the roads are bustling with traffic.

Moreover, People's Square is located in the city center, and it took more than ten minutes of driving with frequent stops and starts to reach our destination.

After searching for a parking space for a while, we finally arrived at our destination.

Stepping into the KFC and breathing in the delicious aroma, Xu Qing finally recovered.

He lunged at the counter, fists clenched.

Today, Tang Song, this wealthy patron, is treating us to a feast, so we must eat to our hearts' content!

She didn't order a hamburger, but instead ordered all the snacks she had been craving.

Soon, the two were seated by the window on the first floor, with a table full of various delicacies in front of them.

Rich and creamy mashed potatoes, Original Recipe Chicken, French fries, egg tarts, Hot & Spicy Chicken...

Xu Qing grabbed a piece of Original Recipe Chicken and took a big bite.

The rich, savory flavor exploded on her taste buds, and Xu Qing instantly beamed with joy, "So delicious!"

Hmph, since you treated me to KFC, I'll let it slide today!

Seeing Xu Qing fully recovered, Tang Song smiled, picked up a piece, and ate it along with her.

As the time passed 6 p. m., the store became increasingly crowded.

The two ate KFC while chatting about Ordinary People and Youjie Home Services.

"Ding-dong—" The Mobile Phone on the table vibrated.

[Wen Ruan: "What are you doing?"]

Tang Song simply took a picture of the KFC in his hand and shared it.

He replied, "I'm eating fried chicken at People's Square."

[Wen Ruan: "Oh, at KFC. Speaking of which, I'm craving fried... chicken, the juicy kind. KFC's Original Recipe Chicken is pretty good; you can feel the juices bursting in your mouth with every bite."]

Reading these ambiguous words and thinking of the Wen Ruan older sister, Tang Song's heart was instantly filled with emotion.

He quickly replied, "When you come back, I'll treat you to a meal, all you can eat."

To be honest, he hadn't seen his older sister for almost 20 days.

Now that he's Da Cheng of endurance, he's been wanting to teach her a lesson, but she just happens to be away on a business trip in the Imperial Capital.

After a while.

Xu Qing took a sip of iced cola, wiped her mouth clean, and patted her stomach contentedly. "I'm so full! You can have the rest!"

"That's too much. I can only have one more serving of mashed potatoes. You can take the rest home."

"Well... okay." Xu Qing licked her lips, unable to resist the temptation of another late-night snack.

It has to be said that there are reasons why one can gain weight.

Just then.

"Ring ring—" The Mobile Phone phone suddenly rang.

Tang Song picked it up and glanced at it, raising his eyebrows slightly.

[Wen Ruan]

Upon answering the phone, Tang Song said softly, "Hello, Ruan Ruan."

Hearing Tang Song's gentle tone, Xu Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately perked up her ears.

According to Yan Yan, Tang Song had a very close relationship with a woman named Wen Ruan in the Imperial Capital.

Could it be her?

"Yes, it's the KFC at People's Square."

"Uh... you're here too?" Tang Song's expression froze for a moment. He looked out through the bright French windows, stood up abruptly, and his expression was quite interesting.

Noticing his unusual reaction, Xu Qing also looked over.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window stood an extremely eye-catching figure.

Black strapless dress, sheer black stockings.

With delicate and charming features, a tall and voluptuous figure, she exudes a mature and sexy allure.

She had a big smile on her face, a bag slung over her left hand, and waved to them with her right hand, very enthusiastically.

(`Д)!!

Xu Qing's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Oh no! We're doomed!

Even if I grow up to be a big D, it won't work now.

This... this... this Nanako... is bigger than me and Yan Yan combined!
