Today is the last day of the year. I went out with my181Please respect copyright.PENANAAYH0ZHzF8I
colleagues and manager to celebrate the evening with a buffet hotpot. Luckily,181Please respect copyright.PENANAActTGSllQG
we made an early-bird reservation; the restaurant was packed, with a long queue181Please respect copyright.PENANAE2tmr6oNjZ
of people nearly circling the restaurant. It's a self-service hotpot, so we had181Please respect copyright.PENANArSSwkTnvfs
to do everything ourselves: getting our own food, pouring our own drinks, and181Please respect copyright.PENANA8IG8sPAPgn
choosing our own broth. However, there were plenty of options for food and181Please respect copyright.PENANAwAUGFDDvsM
drinks, so we were all excited, walking around to pick out what we liked. After181Please respect copyright.PENANAf4caBBwY9E
choosing our broth, we returned to our table and started feasting.181Please respect copyright.PENANAY24wK0Aws6

181Please respect copyright.PENANABER5nwjj9N
We took too much food and ate too quickly, and the broth was running low! I181Please respect copyright.PENANATfumnEHEeq
went to the soup station in front of the kitchen to get more broth to bring181Please respect copyright.PENANAHtlDwYeAMU
back to the table, but it was unexpectedly heavy. I lost my balance and spilled181Please respect copyright.PENANAPV5UWYhGTV
the broth all over my clothes! It was so hot! I was worried I might have been181Please respect copyright.PENANAdiWRPC7bQV
burned, but fortunately, my clothes were a bit thick, which protected me. My181Please respect copyright.PENANA9i5mNnVwV2
manager was startled by the scene and ran over to check if I was okay. I181Please respect copyright.PENANAltU4k063qT
quickly assured him, "Everything is fine except for my clothes getting181Please respect copyright.PENANAEU1oNAPbbB
dirty. All good." Despite my reassurance, he was still worried and had me181Please respect copyright.PENANAiMRdXcJOPf
take off my clothes. One of my colleagues went to a boutique store to buy me181Please respect copyright.PENANAaRHc69TCml
new clothes, so I went to the restroom to try and clean the clothes. However,181Please respect copyright.PENANAIOEnWCgWTt
it was hard to wash, and the stains remained, so I put the clothes in a bag and181Please respect copyright.PENANArrFVV1XYXE
planned to deal with them at home.181Please respect copyright.PENANAYUowNL2g1o
181Please respect copyright.PENANAgMrmqnyOD6
181Please respect copyright.PENANAMy2DDHuZgc
181Please respect copyright.PENANAYfTWzxp1hp
At that point, my colleague brought me new clothes, which fit perfectly! I gave181Please respect copyright.PENANAkxkDGJkoZX
him a thumbs-up gesture. After changing, my manager said he would take the181Please respect copyright.PENANArPP38mBvT5
clothes to the dry cleaners later, with the cost covered by the company. If the181Please respect copyright.PENANA9WR1q8yoRJ
company can cover it, why not? I handed the bag with the dirty clothes to him181Please respect copyright.PENANATNWrFKcy2A
and returned to the table to continue enjoying the hotpot. As we ate and181Please respect copyright.PENANAbmo4d2mgcY
chatted, it was time for the countdown. We all faced the direction of the181Please respect copyright.PENANAMYDIlMdmdM
fireworks and counted down together, "3! 2! 1! Happy New Year!!!"
