Chapter 538: Meeting again

Shen Xing sat outside, subconsciously raised his head and looked inside, then couldn't help but be stunned.

It was Jin Dao and the others!

"Oh, small business. Our seafood is full weight. I can round off the change for you, but a discount is not possible."

The landlady spoke with a Shengang accent, and Shen Xing felt very close when he heard it.

So he also shouted with a Shengang accent: "Landlady, put their bill on my tab."

One sentence caused several people to look up one after another.

Seeing Shen Xing, Jin Dao and the others were also startled.

"Eh?" Jin Dao's eyes lit up: "Shen Xing?"

Shen Xing smiled: "Long time no see."

Several people quickly gathered at Shen Xing's table, pulled over stools without ceremony, and sat down. Jin Dao was a bit excited: "Why are you here? Didn't you get into university?"

This was near the Second Middle School, a place Jin Dao and the others would pass by every day on their way home.

It was just that Shen Xing shouldn't come here again after graduating from high school.

"Just strolling around, hungry, so I found a shop casually. Didn't expect it to be such a coincidence." Shen Xing said, observing the three people, and couldn't help but tease: "Not bad, you guys. Last time at the school gate, you couldn't even bear to buy three sausages, and now you're eating seafood. The food has improved quite a bit."

Er Lei blurted out: "No way, it's Jin Dao's birthday today. Houzi and I saved money for two months just for this day. We almost ate until we were full, and the landlady wouldn't give us a discount."

"It's your birthday?" Shen Xing looked at Jin Dao.

Jin Dao smiled embarrassedly: "What birthday? I didn't even remember it myself. It was them who insisted on celebrating for me, and insisted on eating such expensive things."

In a large inland city like Longcheng, eating seafood really wasn't cheap.

"Then it's too much of a coincidence. Don't say anything else. It's destined that I'm treating today," Shen Xing threw the menu in front of them heroically: "Order whatever you want. If you don't eat until you're satisfied today, no one is allowed to leave."

"Really?" Houzi picked up the menu excitedly: "You're really generous, Shen Xing."

They really hadn't eaten until they were satisfied. Seafood wasn't filling to begin with, and it was expensive. Although they had saved money for two months, they were still scared when they saw the price.

"Forget it, Shen Xing. Last time you treated us to such expensive hot pot, how can we always let you treat us?" As a result, Jin Dao snatched the menu from Houzi's hand and returned it to Shen Xing: "You eat yours, we can accompany you to drink a bottle of beer."

Houzi's hands were empty, and he nodded with a silly smile: "Dao Ge is right, we'll accompany you to drink a bottle of beer."

Shen Xing "tsked," and said impatiently: "Today is different. I happened to run into your birthday, so I must treat you. We have to drink too. Don't be polite with me, order!"

Shen Xing patted the menu like a domineering president: "Each of you order two dishes, Jin Dao, you go first."

Seeing his posture, it seemed they couldn't not order, so Jin Dao had to compromise and pick up the menu: "Then let's have a 'smashed cucumber' and a 'spicy stir-fried clams'."

"Then I'll order eight 'grilled oysters' and a 'spicy stir-fried razor clams'."

"'Spicy stir-fried screw snails', for drinking."

Almost all the dishes they ordered were the cheapest on the menu. Don't look at the environment of this seafood stall, but the seafood in the shop was very complete.

"What are you guys ordering?" Shen Xing shook his head helplessly and called the landlady directly.

"Oh, is the handsome guy from Shengang?" The landlady felt extremely close as soon as she heard Shen Xing's accent.

Shen Xing chatted with her with a smile: "Grew up in Shengang since I was a child. Landlady, is your seafood Shengang seafood?"

"Are you kidding me?" The landlady laughed herself: "I'm doing Shengang goods in Longcheng. How high would the air freight cost be? But don't worry, the seafood here is all good goods, absolutely fresh."

Shen Xing nodded with a smile and pointed directly at the menu: "Steam this 'King Crab' for one, two 'Boston Lobsters' to be baked, stir-fry one 'Black Abalone' with black truffle, and another portion of 'Russian Paste Crab', spicy stir-fried! 'Razor Clam King' stir-fried with scallion, ginger, and chili."

"That's enough, Shen Xing, too much," Jin Dao came back to his senses in shock and quickly grabbed Shen Xing: "We already ate some things just now, we can't finish it."

Seeing this, Shen Xing nodded: "Okay, another case of beer, Old Snowflake?"

The three nodded in unison: "Old Snowflake is good, want it iced."

The landlady wrote down the order, and the smile on her face was bright: "Handsome is generous, come and pick the crab yourself."

After picking the ingredients, several people sat down again and started chatting.

Shen Xing asked them: "Are you still at Kai Ge's place?"

Jin Dao nodded: "Kai Ge's billiard hall is completely handed over to us now. He has other things to be busy with. However, although the income of the billiard hall is okay, there are too many people to support. When our brothers divide it every month, actually not much money is divided."

"Then haven't you thought about doing something else?"

Several people looked at each other, and Er Lei gave a self-deprecating smile: "What can we do?"

Shen Xing looked at them, and there were some words in his heart he wanted to say but didn't. He was a lucky beneficiary, so he should say less preaching in front of people who had always lived in difficulties.

Otherwise, there would be a condescending look.

However, Jin Dao took the initiative to say: "Actually, if we want to do it, there are things to do. For example, delivering takeout, delivering express, etc., it must be more profitable than now, just harder. But we are all young people around twenty years old, used to being idle and lazy since childhood. One is that we can't eat bitterness, and the other is that we can't let go of our face."

He was telling the truth in front of Shen Xing. The more people like them, the more they actually care about face.

Commonly known as dying for face and suffering.

Although Shen Xing didn't understand, he expressed respect. He raised his wine glass and bypassed this topic: "Come on, Jin Dao, happy birthday."

"Thanks, I'm sponging another meal off you." Jin Dao picked up his wine glass, clinked it with the others, and downed half the glass in big gulps.

Then Jin Dao asked Shen Xing: "I saw your Moments, you got into Longda, really amazing."

Shen Xing smiled.

"How is university life? Have you met any girl you like?" Jin Dao asked casually.

Houzi and Er Lei on the side quickly took over the conversation: "With Shen Xing's conditions, girls must be chasing him."

"That's right, there must be many girls who like you, right?"

Shen Xing nodded without denying. There were indeed girls who liked him, but his mind was all on Sang Hui, so looking back now, he didn't even remember what those girls who approached him looked like.

"Did you date?" Jin Dao asked.

Shen Xing looked at the other party, then picked up the wine and drank it all in one breath, put down the cup, and shook his head: "No, she is together with someone else."

Jin Dao's expression froze, realizing if he said something wrong?

And Shen Xing, under the influence of alcohol, suddenly surged with the desire to confide. He smiled and said to Jin Dao: "Let me tell you, the whole thing is particularly absurd..."
