Chapter 73 Lunch
At lunch time, several closures seemed to have no impact on the business. Diners came and went, which made Mao Xiaoyou feel reluctant to leave. She stood in front of the counter and sighed deeply.
There was a thunderclap and a crackling sound from the kitchen, which attracted the curiosity of the guests.
"Did you hear that? Boss lady, this is the third time!" Sister Fan came over and complained with her finger raised.
"Give him some time to adapt!" She shook her head.
"Then you should prepare more plates and bowls! I have never seen such a stupid old man. He must have never been in the kitchen at home. He can't tell the difference between soy sauce and vinegar. It's hard for the chef!"
"If I hadn't encountered difficulties, I wouldn't have been forced to do this!"
"Don't tell me, Lao Lin is quite popular among the aunts, and they all rush to teach him!"
The landline phone rang, and Mao Xiaoyou reached out to pick it up.
"Hello, Zuoyou Restaurant."
"I'm hungry!"
The resentful voice made Mao Xiaoyou stunned for a moment, but he smiled after realizing it.
"It'll be ready soon! Can someone else see me off? There are so many guests that I can't leave!"
"Haven't you tried it?" Fang Wen replied stubbornly: "People and meals are delivered at the same time!"
"Unreasonable! I'm dead."
When he turned around, Fang Qinglin, wearing an apron, came out with a meal bag. He apologized a little embarrassedly. "Boss, those broken things are mine! This is the meal you are going to deliver."
"Uncle Lin, call me Xiaoyou! Don't worry, just pay attention to safety!" He took off his apron and took the meal. "I'll deliver the meal. Tell Sister Fan for me and let her watch here for a while."
"Okay...go!"
Looking at the figure hurriedly leaving, Fang Qinglin nodded slightly and walked towards Sister Fan who was wiping the table. "Xiao Fan, the boss went to deliver the food and asked you to keep an eye on her for a while."
"Huh? Aren't you going to give it away?" Sister Fan thought and smiled. "I must have figured it out again!"
"Why do you need the boss to go in person to deliver the food? I can help deliver it!"
"Don't tell me that you are an old man. You can't be replaced by anyone else. That man is pursuing her!"
"Boyfriend!"
"Not necessarily! There are many people pursuing Youyou, and they are all rich, handsome and rich."
"Boss...she doesn't have a boyfriend?" Fang Qinglin asked tentatively.
"I don't know what that girl is thinking. She just said that the boss of Quan Yue has such good conditions, but she doesn't like it and insists on being an old girl!"
Sister Fan realized that she had talked too much. "Hey! Why are you, an old man, asking about this? Are you looking for a daughter-in-law? Go to work!"
"Oh...work!" Fang Qinglin was so impressed by her words that he hid nervously back in the kitchen."
...
Downstairs of the Financial Building, Guo Meiyu walked toward the entrance of the lobby holding a parasol in one hand and a lunch box in the other.
"Auntie~"
When she heard someone shouting, she stopped and followed the sound, with a smile on her sweaty cheeks. "It's Xiao Zhang! Are you coming too?"
Taking three steps and two steps together, Zhang Ruqing showed her the exquisite meal bag and responded coquettishly: "Oh...what should I do, aunt? We want to go together!"
"It's okay, it's okay! He's already here, so he's lucky!" The two of them were walking and chatting. Guo Meiyu sighed, "You're so busy and still want to give him food. It's Fang Wen who doesn't know how to cherish it!"
"Don't say that to auntie, he has been much nicer to me now!"
Seeing her shy look, Guo Meiyu's eyes lit up.
"Really? Fang Wen has figured it out?"
"Well!" Zhang Ruqing blushed. "We have developed to...Auntie, you know!"
"You know, you know, I was worried that he would be seduced by an unruly woman!" Guo Meiyu swept away the gloom. "Now it's better! Xiao Zhang, not many men can stay pregnant, so we still have to rely on
Women, keep an eye out!"
"Don't you have to blame Auntie for this? Who allowed you to give birth to him so well and raise him so well?"
This sentence made Guo Meiyu so happy that she laughed from ear to ear. Not far behind them, Mao Xiaoyou looked at the meal bag and then at the two people holding each other. "Can you finish three servings?!"
Turning back, a sneer appeared on the corner of Mao Xiaoyou's mouth. She understood that the man should have known about Guo Meiyu's arrival, and Zhang Ruqing was just a calculated coincidence. The more deliberate she was, the more headache she would give him, and the more she would upset Guo Meiyu.
If she is uneasy, he will hate her even more. What she wants is no longer short-term pleasure, but his common hatred!
At this time, several people walked towards her. The man walking at the front looked familiar. She straightened her clothes, slowed down her steps and walked forward with her head held high.
"I'm full at noon!" Wang Mingzhi, who returned from foraging for food, held a toothpick in his mouth and touched his round belly, looking like he was full.
When passing by a beauty, those men couldn't help but take a few more glances. Wang Mingzhi recognized this unique and dazzling woman at a glance. He stopped and took off his toothpick to say hello.
"Miss Mao? Do you still remember me?" He had a funny expression and exaggerated body movements. "Weird feast!"
After looking carefully, Mao Xiaoyou lowered his head and smiled softly, looking a little embarrassed.
"I'm really sorry about that time! I hope you won't be disappointed in our restaurant because of this. I'll ask you all to apologize for it!"
"Hey, I know! I was just involved by someone!" He glanced at the meal bag in her hand teasingly. "Come to deliver food to Mr. Fang? Why don't you come up?"
"Suddenly something urgent happened. I have to rush back to the restaurant!" Mao Xiaoyou said with a confused look on his face.
"I'll bring him up!"
"I'm so sorry, it's so troublesome for you!"
"What's the trouble? I'm happy to help!" Mistaking her refusal as polite, Wang Mingzhi took the meal bag enthusiastically. "Don't worry, Miss Mao!"
"Thank you for your hard work!"
"polite!"
"Let's go now, bye~!"
Watching Qian Ying leave in a hurry, curious colleagues asked Wang Mingzhi to find out the secret.
"Boss, is this the legendary new love of the Demon Lord?"
"It's well-deserved, it's so beautiful!"
"Look at you one by one! Be careful that the devil will see you and knock off your eyeballs." He bit his toothpick and continued walking. "What new love? The previous ones were just for fun!"
"Is it true love this time?"
"Don't ask around! Maybe it's the boss's wife!"
"The boss has such a strict mouth!" they laughed and joked.
