"I'm sorry." I stood in the corridor with my head down, but my mind was indecisive.
I found that many things were not like what I thought.
Originally, I thought it was only my own affair, but this matter affected the people around me.
It made all people anxious.
They were all affected.
I went back to my office and Paulina said to me first, "Janetta, why don't you also hold a press conference like Kelsi?"
"No." Nancy said as she was following me, "Do you think the Kelsi family opened the press conference at random? They have already distributed questions to the journalists, and then prepared the answers. Every step was done followed the script. If you open it so rashly, you must be bewildered by the questions."
"Then we should also prepare a script."
Paulina said that and took it for granted.
Nancy shook her head. "With Janetta's current reputation, even if you give money to the journalists, there might not be many people who would be willing to cooperate."
I sat there without saying a word,
and felt like everything was in a dead end.
We four sat in the office for a day and didn't find a good way.
In the evening, Lisa was clamoring to have hot pot. She said that she was going to fly all over the world soon. She couldn't have a chance to eat hot pot for a long time, and she would be lovesick for it!
We agreed without any other choice,
and found a hot pot restaurant.
We found a spot in the corner and sat down.
After ordering the dishes, the waiter came over and asked us, "May I ask what kind of pot flavouring do you want?"
"I want the spiciest ones! It is spicy enough that one might die from it!" Lisa shouted.
The waiter took it seriously and went to order like that.
After the hot pot was served, we didn't regret until we filled the hotpot with a pile of stuff such as meat and meatballs.
Paulina looked at Lisa, who was drinking the yogurt desperately to alleviate the spiciness, and complained, "It's the most spicy one you want. Eat it! You can't keep your words if you just drink the juice!"
"I'll take it," Lisa said as she scooped up four pieces of broccoli. She gave two pieces of them to Paulina, and the other two pieces to herself. "Come on, let's compete. Eat two pieces of broccoli without drinking yogurt. The person who lose will oink like a pig, how about it?"
"Okay!" Paulina immediately agreed.
As spoke, they began to eat the broccoli.
For this kind of hot pot, it was not bad to eat some meat, but the vegetables were the most spicy.
As soon as each of them ate one piece, Paulina couldn't help but pick up a yogurt next to her and drink it.
Lisa was the same. She looked at Paulina drinking and said, "Isn't it to oink like a pig? I'll admit it!"
After that, she picked up the yogurt next to her and drank it up.
Nancy and I looked at the two of them, with a sad face, and suggested, "How about we order a new pot of mild spicy flavouring? Or a complementary pot with spicy and non-spicy seasoning."
"I agree!"
"Okay!"
Lisa and Paulina answered at the same time.
When I was about to call the waiter to change the pot's seasoning, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a person who looked a little familiar.
