Conan's self-cultivation of fake wine

Chapter 26 A few things about prejudice (please recommend and collect)
  "The coffee here is really good, but the food is just average. Otherwise, the business would be better."

After eating two black pepper fried steaks, one tomato pasta, and two bacon sandwiches, Lu Ren put down his tableware and commented elegantly.

Okino Yoko smiled back, what else could she say?
  The large and small plates stacked on the table in front of him were all made by Lu Ren.

There was only one cup on the table for her, and she had only drank a cup of bitter coffee without sugar until now.

That's how she controls her weight. She's not the kind of person who can eat no matter how much she eats without getting fat.

The meals provided here are high in calories and are not even eaten. She didn't dare to eat it at all.

And Lu Ren could actually eat so much in one go. His appetite was so frightening.

"You have a great appetite."

"It's okay, that's it. It's just that I haven't eaten well these past few days."

Lu Ren ordered another fried steak. The pasta and sandwiches here are very average, but the steak is pretty good.

It tastes relatively fresh, not the kind of steak that has been frozen in the freezer for a long time.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lu Ren took the time to chat with Okino.

"I have always felt that being an actor is very hard. You can't eat this, you can't eat that. It is said that there are people who only eat a spoonful of rice a day, and the rest eats all kinds of vegetables and vitamin capsules. I always suspect that I will easily become depressed if I give up carbs like this. .”

"Actually, it's not bad. It was very painful at first."

Xu recalled that time, and the smile on Okino Yoko's face disappeared, and she slowly said, "It was indeed very greedy, even if it was just a bowl of ordinary white rice, it felt like it was supremely delicious. The whole person My spirit was also very bad, depressed and unhappy. But after surviving the most difficult period, things will be okay later on."

"You are very dedicated, Miss Yoko."

"You're honored. This is just basic common sense in the industry. If you don't do this, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry."

"That's true, your artists really work hard. And they don't make much."

"It's already very high. With the current economic downturn, life is not easy for everyone. Excluding daily expenses, I can still save my salary and buy two or three luxury goods throughout the year. I am very satisfied."

Yoko looked serious.

"Then you've never seen a traffic niche." Lu Ren shook his head, "Forget it, let's not mention this. It's too unlucky."

Just as the steak he had just ordered was served, Lu Ren moved the tableware again.

The atmosphere became silent again.

When eating with unfamiliar people, Lu Ren rarely takes the initiative to speak. At most, the other person was talking, and he nodded in agreement. Or when you ask him a question, give him a simple reply.

He was eating seriously the whole time.

Apart from company entertainment, that is work.

But now, it's not really work, it's just a simple meeting and chatting, and working on her case.

Whether we will continue to deal with each other in the future is hard to say.

It is now seven o'clock in the evening, and they met at half past five. The two have been in formal contact for an hour and a half.

Although the agreed time was six o'clock, they all arrived half an hour early.

During the time they were in contact, Lu Ren probably got to know Okino Yoko's personality.

Sunshine, vitality, optimism, gentleness. There is always a smile on his face, giving people a positive feeling. He is a pump, an energizer, and a blood replenishing pack. It is a handful of clear springs in a dry desert.

No wonder Mao Li likes her so much, even to the point of fanaticism.

It is indeed very lethal to middle-aged and elderly people.

She is a very good girl, but Lu Ren doesn't feel much about her.

I don’t reject or dislike it, but I don’t like it either.

There was always a smile on my face, it was very tiring.

This standard, perfect, business smile.

In Lu Ren's opinion, it was nothing more than a girl's blush. Because it is fake, no matter how true it is, it is still fake.

At the beginning of this meeting, Lu Ren could clearly feel Okino Yoko's uneasiness and fear.

After all, he often discussed business with people in his previous life and didn't know how to read people's words, so he should change his career as soon as possible.

But even though he was so scared and uneasy, his smile still didn't change, as if it was fixed on his face with hairspray.

As for why she was afraid and uneasy, Lu Ren could probably guess it.

He stated that he had no such idea, but Sato Kiyoshi obviously still had the wrong idea. The TV station director is probably the same.

They are all masters, but they never finish.

As for why we didn't explain it right after we met.

Because Lu Ren was very hungry, and he went straight to the point and said that he had no ill intentions. He felt that Okino Yoko couldn't believe it, so he might as well eat before talking.

The reason why prejudice is prejudice is that people can only see what they want to see.

In psychology, this is called confirmation bias.

When people subjectively support a certain point of view, they tend to look for information that can support the point of view, and choose to ignore information that may overturn the point of view.

This thing makes sense when used to explain luck.

Similar are competing truths, mind-sets, and cognitive biases.

I won’t go into details here.

But now, the time should be almost there. If it's a little later, the body of Okino Yoko's ex-boyfriend will stink.

Lu Ren had just finished eating and didn't want it to affect his digestion.

"Yoko, you don't mind if I call you that."

Does she mind?
  "As you wish."

"I heard people say that you seem to be in some trouble."

Yes, I met you.

"What trouble do you mean?"

"Weren't you being followed by someone, and that person even broke into your home?"

Yes, she forgot all about it. With Lu Ren in front of him, Okino Yoko felt that it was just like that when he was kicked into a trap.

Whether it's the intruder or Lu Ren, they are all robbed.

Why is Tucai staring at her?

But if Lu Ren can really help her solve this problem, then that's fine.

Yoko can still tell the difference between being dirty once and being dirty twice.

"There is such a thing. But don't worry, the station has promised to deal with it. In a few days, there should be results."

"When will we wait?" Lu Ren waved his hand, "This kind of thing must be done professionally. I happen to know a famous detective. He is good at tracking and can definitely help you solve this problem."

"Yes, then please give me his contact information."

"No need. His office is upstairs. Let's just go up and visit him directly. I decided to meet here because I originally planned to resolve the two matters at once."

"so."

As expected of you. Don't waste any time.
