Today is the last day of the year. I went out with my31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMTV9SdBQ1
colleagues and manager to celebrate the evening with a buffet hotpot. Luckily,31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCsnxTErvD
we made an early-bird reservation; the restaurant was packed, with a long queue31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SMCaxeE12
of people nearly circling the restaurant. It's a self-service hotpot, so we had31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG63Ejywz5
to do everything ourselves: getting our own food, pouring our own drinks, and31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MZnjdgPfw
choosing our own broth. However, there were plenty of options for food and31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQPJRcsEke
drinks, so we were all excited, walking around to pick out what we liked. After31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6ck2muiFe
choosing our broth, we returned to our table and started feasting.31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTXMoOwUfo

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3yUqEuqs2
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVCp9oe3mc
We took too much food and ate too quickly, and the broth was running low! I31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWmbs3jaxj
went to the soup station in front of the kitchen to get more broth to bring31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvggdf1yWv
back to the table, but it was unexpectedly heavy. I lost my balance and spilled31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP6Oghk6Ge
the broth all over my clothes! It was so hot! I was worried I might have been31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmhhfmqs2h
burned, but fortunately, my clothes were a bit thick, which protected me. My31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrZfUFq3KG
manager was startled by the scene and ran over to check if I was okay. I31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfj2XFzm8c3
quickly assured him, "Everything is fine except for my clothes getting31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh3lyh15pY
dirty. All good." Despite my reassurance, he was still worried and had me31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8Q6cXwm7f
take off my clothes. One of my colleagues went to a boutique store to buy me31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGgRHierEM
new clothes, so I went to the restroom to try and clean the clothes. However,31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TAPj4MD1e
it was hard to wash, and the stains remained, so I put the clothes in a bag and31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcepbVhkYM5
planned to deal with them at home.31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqn7PXYfFG7
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2B7dWuSoE
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lUBHii6yE
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrGSvLHng9
At that point, my colleague brought me new clothes, which fit perfectly! I gave31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUVAQkOdd5
him a thumbs-up gesture. After changing, my manager said he would take the31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkBvVNlRxD
clothes to the dry cleaners later, with the cost covered by the company. If the31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDS3W666Wf
company can cover it, why not? I handed the bag with the dirty clothes to him31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F5ExaNnBn
and returned to the table to continue enjoying the hotpot. As we ate and31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVv1VhImXj
chatted, it was time for the countdown. We all faced the direction of the31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU4g7KqeAr
fireworks and counted down together, "3! 2! 1! Happy New Year!!!"
