"Well, General Manager Wei, can I also have a membership card? Can I also have one? "
Jiang Yimeng also made a request nervously. She was not short of money, but she was afraid that Xiaoyao would not give her face since she was not related to her.
"And me, can I also have one?"
Sister Lan was also eager to have a try. As a top agent, she was not short of money, but it was not certain whether Xiaoyao would give her face or not. So she hesitated for a long time and still plucked up the courage to ask.
"Me, and me, Sister Wei, I also want one."
Guan Xiaotong was born in a family of artists. Although her status was not very high, she was also a popular artist, and she was not short of money. She was careless and did not think too much, so she raised her hand and shouted sweetly.
"I also want one, Sister Wei."
"I, I also want one."
Seeing that Guan Xiaotong had spoken, Ouyang Poxiao and Tong Liya could not help raising their hands and shouting.
Although they did not stay in Ninghai, the delicious food in the Pavilion in the Air had completely conquered them. They thought that there would be many opportunities to come to Ninghai in the future, but it would be a pity if they could not eat the delicious food in the Pavilion in the Air because of overcrowding. Therefore, it was necessary to get a membership card with special privileges.
Ding Ning was stunned by the side. He had never thought that the company canteen, which was made for Luoxue to kill time, would become a popular gourmet restaurant now. In order to get a special membership card that allowed them to eat without waiting in line, no one cared about the annual fee of 100,000 yuan. Instead, they crazily pursued it. Was the society too crazy, or were they too outdated?
The cost of a membership card that could be used on the card machine was no more than 100 yuan, but each membership card could bring the restaurant a profit of 100,000 yuan every year, and it was 100,000 yuan every year.
It was not much. If the Pavilion in the Air had 100 membership cards, it did not need to pay anything at all. At most, it only needed to reserve some private rooms for members, and it could make a net profit of 10 million yuan every year. In 10 years, it would be 100 million yuan.
Although Ding Ning did not care about 10 million yuan at all with his current status and wealth, for ordinary people, it was definitely a large amount of wealth that they could only dream of for a lifetime.
Especially when he thought that the money seemed to be picked up from the street, Ding Ning could not help sighing with emotion.
Xiaoyao, the top student at Harvard, finally showed her talent. She easily earned a lot of money for the Castle in the Air by using the privilege of not having to line up for meals.
"Hey, you don't want a membership card?"
Ding Ning sighed with emotion, but he found that so many people in the box surrounded Xiaoyao to "buy" membership cards. Except for Producer Wang, Director Pan, scriptwriter Cheng, and some agents who did not say anything, Diba also continued to eat calmly beside him. This made him feel very surprised and he could not help but ask.
After all, this girl's gluttony was well-known throughout the country. This time, she was able to resist the temptation of delicious food, which really made him have a whole new level of respect for her.
Diba blinked his beautiful big eyes and clutched his slightly bloated stomach. With a pained and conflicted expression, he said, "I want it too, but … I'm afraid of getting fat."
Ding Ning was almost turned over by her cute expression. This girl was not delicate and pretentious, and her forthright and cheerful character was really attractive. No wonder that since her debut, both the audience and the media had mostly positive comments on her.
Almost subconsciously, he reached out his hand and scratched her straight nose, saying with a smile, "What are you afraid of …"
Diba's pretty face instantly turned red, her eyes unnaturally evading his gaze, and her body subconsciously leaned back, widening the distance between them.
Ding Ning's words stopped abruptly. From Diba's reaction, he suddenly realized that he was too abrupt. After all, they were not familiar with each other, and he instinctively made such an intimate action because he really appreciated this lovely girl.
"Ahem, ahem, it's my fault. Don't be angry. I'm used to playing with my sister, so I subconsciously regard you as my sister. Ahem, ahem … I really didn't mean it."
Ding Ning was so embarrassed that he stammered and apologized.
Fortunately, at this moment, everyone was paying attention to Xiaoyao, and no one noticed their abnormality. Otherwise, there might be a scandal tomorrow.
It didn't matter to him, but Diba was a popular artist. Once there was a scandal, it would definitely bring her a bad influence.
"Ahem, ahem, it doesn't matter. I understand that you can't help yourself. After all, I'm loved by everyone and flowers bloom when they meet."
Seeing his embarrassed look, Diba knew that he didn't seem to take advantage of her sincerely, and the slight unhappiness in her heart disappeared. She naughtily stuck out her tongue and humorously resolved this embarrassment.
Ding Ning heaved a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, although this girl was a little narcissistic, she was extremely considerate, which made him secretly alert in his heart. He must think twice before he acted in the future, and he must not be careless and give people an impression that he was frivolous and unstable.
"Thank you for your understanding. In order to express my apology, I will give you a membership card of the Castle in the Air."
For Ding Ning, the membership card was just a piece of cake, but for Diba, it was a super big gift. However, why did Ding Ning give her this big gift? This made her not happy but shocked, and she immediately became vigilant. Was he thinking about her?
"You … Well, I know you didn't mean it. You really don't need to take it to heart. This gift is too big, and I can't accept it."
Although Diba wanted to get the membership card, she had her own bottom line and principles, so she chose to refuse at the first time. But she didn't want to offend Ding Ning like this, so she said half-jokingly, "Besides, I don't want to exercise desperately to consume excess calories to control my body shape because of gluttony."
How could Ding Ning not see her refusal? He smiled indifferently and continued to throw out a great temptation, "If I say I have a way for you to enjoy delicious food to your heart's content, and you don't have to exercise so hard to maintain your body shape, will you still refuse?"
Diba's face was full of confusion. She didn't doubt Ding Ning's words at all, because before he came, she had learned from Song Ziyi about the magic of Ding Ning's medical skills. For a foodie like her, it was absolutely an irresistible temptation to be able to enjoy delicious food unscrupulously without exercising desperately to lose weight.
She deliberately sat next to Ding Ning because she wanted to deepen their relationship, and then ask him if there was any way to maintain her body shape without controlling her diet.
But now that Ding Ning took the initiative to propose it, she hesitated. Although she was usually careless, she was really not a brainless vase, otherwise she would not have today's achievements.
If Ding Ning had proposed this method before, she would have been ecstatic, but after Ding Ning's ambiguous behavior, she had developed a strong vigilance against him. There was no such thing as a free lunch in the sky. She didn't believe that Ding Ning would be so kind as to help her unconditionally.
With this preconceived mentality, Diba quickly made a decision. She stared at Ding Ning without blinking and said, "What do you want?"
"What do I want?"
Ding Ning froze for a moment and then reacted. He knew that she was suspecting that he had ulterior motives. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "I'm not your fan, but I appreciate your professional attitude and your candid and straightforward character. In the big dye vat of the entertainment circle, every person who can remain unstained by the mud deserves my respect and admiration. I don't mind helping such a person within my ability."
"Really?"
Diba didn't seem to expect such an answer, and looked at him in disbelief.
But what she saw was a pair of calm and clear eyes without any impurities, and the answer she got was also very certain, "More real than pearls."
Diba secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She believed that a person's eyes would not lie, but she didn't know why she was a little annoyed in her heart. "Am I so unattractive?"
"Am I so unattractive?"
Thinking of this, Diba inexplicably blurted out this sentence, which shocked Ding Ning so much that his jaw almost dropped. After a long time, he touched his nose and said to himself with a narcissistic face, "I didn't know that I was so attractive!"
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
The two laughed at the same time, and the previous misunderstandings and awkwardness disappeared like smoke in thin air. It was as if they had met and smiled to forget the enmity between them.
"I propose a toast to you, for … your appreciation and love."
After such a small farce, the relationship between the two was surprisingly close. Diba took the initiative to raise her glass to Ding Ning. Although she didn't mention the membership card or the prescription to maintain her figure, she obviously no longer suspected Ding Ning's ulterior motives.
"I must drink the toast from the fat girl."
Ding Ning mischievously picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp.
"You are the fat girl. My nickname is Fat Di."
Diba was immediately displeased, and angrily insisted on arguing with him.
Ding Ning smiled and quibbled, "From tomorrow on, you are not the fat girl, nor Fat Di. You are Thin Di. Okay, I promise!"
"That's more like it. But if you can't do it, don't blame me for not recognizing you as a friend."
With Ding Ning's promise, Diba immediately turned from anger to joy. It could be seen how much she hoped that the problem of "being fat", which had tormented her for several years, could be solved.
"In fact, being a little fat is good. A thin woman is so boring."
Ding Ning said sneakily, quietly looking at her round and jade-like figure.
"People like you who don't gain weight no matter what you eat won't understand how painful it is for people like me to gain weight even when drinking cold water. There are so many delicious foods in front of me, but I can't eat them because I'm afraid of gaining weight. That kind of pain is really unbearable. You don't know, once, I …"
Diba didn't notice his "sneaky eyes". She drank the spirit fruit wine with a pained and conflicted face while eating the food while burping. It didn't stop her from pouring out her grievances. At this moment, her foodie attribute was undoubtedly revealed.
"Okay, in order to satisfy your appetite, I will help you make a medicine that can control your figure tonight, okay?"
Ding Ning didn't expect that Diba would have such a big complaint about not being able to enjoy the food to her heart's content. At this moment, she was even more naggy than Tang Seng. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and could only promise.
"Burp! I find that you are actually a good person. Loyal! It's a pity that you don't work in the entertainment circle, otherwise I will definitely protect you. "
Diba was a little drunk at this moment. She burped inelegantly, her face was red, and her eyes were blurred from drunkenness. She patted Ding Ning's shoulder and said in a very manly manner.
"Okay, this is what you said. When I go to the entertainment circle someday, you have to protect me."
Ding Ning felt that Diba was more and more cute and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, every word counts. Your Sister Diba will definitely keep her words."
Diba became even more enthusiastic. He patted his chest loudly and swore to guarantee it.
Ding Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but it was not wrong for her to call herself Sister Diba. After all, this girl was several years older than him.
