Today is the last day of the year. I went out with my176Please respect copyright.PENANATv3x8OfLC4
colleagues and manager to celebrate the evening with a buffet hotpot. Luckily,176Please respect copyright.PENANAsK4RL4lOAO
we made an early-bird reservation; the restaurant was packed, with a long queue176Please respect copyright.PENANA23sseD1nRX
of people nearly circling the restaurant. It's a self-service hotpot, so we had176Please respect copyright.PENANAooq7ngvCrd
to do everything ourselves: getting our own food, pouring our own drinks, and176Please respect copyright.PENANAJ328gpt639
choosing our own broth. However, there were plenty of options for food and176Please respect copyright.PENANAVy6XfUMcmC
drinks, so we were all excited, walking around to pick out what we liked. After176Please respect copyright.PENANAh41g5JKVh5
choosing our broth, we returned to our table and started feasting.176Please respect copyright.PENANAlpnRsFGtu3

176Please respect copyright.PENANAOZpy8JAxyc
We took too much food and ate too quickly, and the broth was running low! I176Please respect copyright.PENANADrbFm0NCZC
went to the soup station in front of the kitchen to get more broth to bring176Please respect copyright.PENANADkRNchCrUD
back to the table, but it was unexpectedly heavy. I lost my balance and spilled176Please respect copyright.PENANAq7vxU9oKOR
the broth all over my clothes! It was so hot! I was worried I might have been176Please respect copyright.PENANAzJFvtqsR2k
burned, but fortunately, my clothes were a bit thick, which protected me. My176Please respect copyright.PENANAbnE4j0lq6C
manager was startled by the scene and ran over to check if I was okay. I176Please respect copyright.PENANAHAwiaKIkR1
quickly assured him, "Everything is fine except for my clothes getting176Please respect copyright.PENANAEE3775p9fl
dirty. All good." Despite my reassurance, he was still worried and had me176Please respect copyright.PENANAsGrre6pfgT
take off my clothes. One of my colleagues went to a boutique store to buy me176Please respect copyright.PENANArEihLbGjBB
new clothes, so I went to the restroom to try and clean the clothes. However,176Please respect copyright.PENANAf2V1Ch5f8F
it was hard to wash, and the stains remained, so I put the clothes in a bag and176Please respect copyright.PENANAKvuIAv10RI
planned to deal with them at home.176Please respect copyright.PENANADzyaPgKfAJ
176Please respect copyright.PENANA2ow2cR7OXR
176Please respect copyright.PENANA75oqtL3IRJ
176Please respect copyright.PENANANR2DKerRyq
At that point, my colleague brought me new clothes, which fit perfectly! I gave176Please respect copyright.PENANAyUCCMxBr3d
him a thumbs-up gesture. After changing, my manager said he would take the176Please respect copyright.PENANARZt20t1Odm
clothes to the dry cleaners later, with the cost covered by the company. If the176Please respect copyright.PENANAdVTSprBfKe
company can cover it, why not? I handed the bag with the dirty clothes to him176Please respect copyright.PENANA3IB6E1x3um
and returned to the table to continue enjoying the hotpot. As we ate and176Please respect copyright.PENANAeaijqgTR3D
chatted, it was time for the countdown. We all faced the direction of the176Please respect copyright.PENANAWcdaOkppRL
fireworks and counted down together, "3! 2! 1! Happy New Year!!!"
