"You're treating me to dinner tonight?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was crisp and joyful. "That's great. Where are we going?"
Zuo Yi asked, "Is western food okay?"
"Sure."
Qin Qin answered without hesitation. "I know a western buffet restaurant that's very affordable. It's only 138 yuan per person. There's a lot of fresh seafood there. I went there with my friends last time and it's very good!"
Although the girl was a bit of a hipster, she wasn't pretentious at all. She even actively helped Zuo Yi save money.
Zuo Yi smiled. "I've already made reservations. We'll go there next time."
Qin Qin was surprised. "You've already made reservations? Then I'll follow your arrangements. "
"Okay."
Zuo Yi said, "I'll wait for you outside. The car is parked on the side of the road."
Qin Qin was happy. "I'll be there soon!"
After ending the call, Zuo Yi put the phone on the car and smiled.
Qin Qin had helped him a lot recently. Zuo Yi had long wanted to treat her to a meal to express his gratitude.
Today was the perfect time to get his license and equipment.
He had also prepared a gift for Secretary Qin!
It was definitely a special gift.
About ten minutes later, Qin Qin hurried out of the police building.
When she saw the Cherokee parked on the side of the road, she smiled brightly and opened the door to the passenger seat.
This girl had put on lipstick, and she looked much brighter.
"Left Counsellor …"
Qin Qin smiled and said, "Thank you for the money. I haven't even found dinner yet!"
Zuo Yi was confused. "Isn't there free dinner in the police station?"
"I'm sick of it."
Qin Qin wrinkled her nose and complained, "I tossed and turned a few dishes over and over again, and they were oily and tasty. I don't want to abuse my stomach all the time. I was just thinking that someone would treat me to a meal, but I didn't expect you to call me …"
She covered her mouth and giggled. She seemed very happy.
"Go!"
Zuo Yi said straightforwardly, "I'll treat you to a feast!"
Driving the Cherokee, he took Qin Qin to a western restaurant near Hangzhou Square.
"Jialan Pavilion!"
Qin Qin, who had just gotten out of the car, opened her eyes wide. "It's so expensive here!"
Jialan Pavilion was a famous Western restaurant in Hangzhou. It specialized in authentic French cuisine and had a minimum charge of 3,000 yuan per person.
In other words, Qin Qin's monthly salary was not even enough for the two of them to have a meal here!
Although she had never been to Jialan Pavilion before, she had seen it in her circle of friends. She suddenly felt like backing out.
"It's alright."
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "What are you afraid of when I'm treating you? Are you afraid that I'll skip the bill and charge you to wash the dishes here?"
"I'm not afraid!"
Qin Qin was amused and said, "Oh right, you just earned 500 merit points. You should treat me to a big meal!"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
The Supernatural Resource Management Bureau had a very comprehensive reward and punishment system. Consultants like Zuo Yi did not receive a single cent of salary, but as long as they completed a task, they would receive a corresponding reward.
The name of the reward was merit points. It sounded very cool and very practical.
For example, Zuo Yi's Cherokee was modified by the Supernatural Resource Management Bureau's logistics department. It was a free benefit for the first time. If he wanted to add further functions, he would have to pay the corresponding merit points.
It was the same for other equipment. Since it was a free standard, there were also projects and services that required merit points.
In addition, merit points could be exchanged for Intranet points, and Intranet points could be bought and sold. If Zuo Yi needed money, he could directly exchange his merit points for Intranet points and sell them on the Intranet trading platform to get real money.
On the Intranet trading platform, the best selling product was Intranet points. The trading price was very stable.
That was equivalent to a bonus.
According to the current market, 500 merit points could be exchanged for about 100,000 Xia yuan. This was what Qin Qin told Zuo Yi.
In fact, Zuo Yi's main purpose in joining the Supernatural Resource Management Bureau was to earn Faith points. Earning bonuses was just a side benefit. As long as he could earn Faith points, he would have no problem treating Qin Qin to a big meal every day.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked into the Jialan Pavilion restaurant.
Qin Qin secretly said to Zuo Yi, "This is my first time here."
Zuo Yi smiled slightly.
When Jialan Pavilion first opened, he had been here twice. This French restaurant was not bad. They had hired a real Gallic chef. Although the price was high, the service and taste were very good. It was much better than some restaurants that were full of pretentious but bad food.
He said to the waiter, "We booked C2."
Jialan Pavilion had always been difficult to book. Zuo Yi had specifically booked it in the morning. His luck was not bad.
The waiter looked at the list and immediately bowed politely. "Mr. Zuo, please come this way."
"Qin?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side. "Why are you here?"
Zuo Yi and Qin Qin turned their heads at the same time. A few steps away, a beautiful woman was looking at them in surprise.
She wore a long dress that exposed her shoulders. Her hair was tied up in a bun and her makeup was exquisite. There was a faint arrogance between her eyebrows. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were scrutinizing. "Is this your boyfriend?"
Her gaze fell on Zuo Yi. It was very sharp.
"Sister Yan."
Qin Qin said uneasily, "He's my colleague."
"Colleague?"
The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows. "Do you want to join us? I booked a private room here. Two more people can sit together. "
"No, no …"
Qin Qin hurriedly waved her hand. "We already have a seat. We won't disturb you. We'll leave first."
As she spoke, she walked forward and almost walked in the wrong direction. Fortunately, the waiter led her in time, so she did not embarrass herself.
She looked a little panicked.
Zuo Yi and the beautiful woman looked at each other. The latter nodded slightly.
Zuo Yi also nodded.
He noticed that on the brooch she was wearing, there was a dragon-shaped emblem!
Zuo Yi was quite familiar with this dragon-shaped emblem. It was the roaring dragon emblem of the Xiaya Extraordinary Federation.
This meant that she was a member of the Xiaya Extraordinary Federation.
Following the waiter in front, Zuo Yi and Qin Qin came to C2.
It was a small two-person booth by the window.
After sitting down, Qin Qin poured herself a glass of lemonade and drank it. Her expression calmed down.
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "She doesn't look like a tiger to me. Why are you so afraid of her?"
Qin Qin held the empty glass and smiled bitterly. "You don't know. Ever since she was young, she has always been the kind of child who follows others around …"
This Sister Yan's real name was Qin Qin Yan. She was Qin Qin's cousin and the most dazzling figure of the younger generation in the entire family.
Qin Yan's life was like a cheat. She was the top student in school, good at singing and dancing, and had outstanding talents. Coupled with her natural beauty, from junior high to senior high to university, the number of people who pursued her could fill up half of West Lake!
Qin Qin and Qin Yan were only one year apart in age, so they were often compared.
But there was no way to compare!
After graduating from university, Qin Qin entered the Supernatural Authority for an internship and moved out of her home. Only then did she manage to get rid of Qin Yan's shadow.
Although she had already awakened as a supernatural being, Qin Yan was also an awakened supernatural being. In fact, Qin Yan was much stronger than her!
Qin Qin did not expect to run into her cousin here when she came to Jialan Restaurant for dinner with Zuo Yi today.
She felt that it was a big mistake to forget to check the almanac before leaving the house!
"It's over, it's over!"
Qin Qin said dejectedly, "Sister Yan will definitely tell my mom. My mom likes her ten times more than me!"
What a poor girl!
Zuo Yi could totally imagine the fear of Qin Qin's life being dominated by this super outstanding cousin of hers. Over time, the shadow in her heart would probably be as large as 500 square meters!
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "What's wrong with having dinner with your colleagues? Besides, you're an adult now, so it's normal for you to have your own life and socialize. Why does your mother care so much?"
Qin Qin wanted to cry. "Do you know how much effort it took me to move out of my house?"
Zuo Yi chuckled as he handed the menu to her. "Don't think about it. Just order first. You'll be fine after you're full."
Qin Qin took the menu and flipped it open. She said fiercely, "Then I'll eat more!"
Although she said that, she only ordered two dishes, and they were both cheap ones.
Zuo Yi was also speechless. He took back the menu and added another ten or so dishes.
Qin Qin got anxious when she heard that. "How can I finish all these dishes? I don't eat a lot. I'm on a diet!"
Zuo Yi said calmly, "I have a big appetite. I'm afraid I won't be full, so you can go on a diet. Don't worry about me."
Qin Qin muttered, "I told you we were going for a buffet."
