Chu Ye only knew that Chen Jianguo's family situation was very good and he was one of the richest students in the class at that time, so he never expected that Chen Jianguo would go bankrupt and be reduced to selling off his property!
When they were on the phone just now, Chen Jianguo smiled as if nothing happened. He kept silent about his bankruptcy and was still concerned about his relationship with Shen Yixue.
Is it because you are afraid that you will worry about him?
Chu Ye clenched his fists!
Fatty, you are not interesting enough!
You have to hide such a big thing from me!
Chu Ye felt a tightness in his chest. When Chen Jianguo took him everywhere to eat and drink, he kept saying that he had the opportunity to treat the fat man to a high-end meal, but he never did it.
Thinking of this, Chu Ye felt a little sad.
He found a seat in the lobby and sat down, called the waiter and asked for the menu.
"Hello sir, what would you like to eat?"
Chu Ye glanced at the menu and said calmly:
"Two bottles of Maotai."
"One piece of Vietnamese chicken in clear soup, one piece of Australian lobster, one piece of braised shark's fin, one piece of red shrimp lips, one piece of abalone and mountain bamboo shoots..."
I ordered more than a dozen dishes in one go, all of which were the most expensive dishes.
"Sir, can you finish eating alone?"
The waiter looked surprised.
"Let's serve."
Chu Ye scanned the QR code to transfer the money on the spot, and more than 10,000 yuan of meal money arrived immediately.
The waiter was immediately dumbfounded and hurriedly ran to the back kitchen to order the food.
Soon, several dishes arrived on the table one after another.
The whole table was filled.
"Add another set of tableware." Chu Ye ordered the waiter.
"Sir, aren't you alone?" The waiter was a little confused.
"I'll let you get another set of cutlery."
The waiter scratched his head and looked confused. He thought this guest was a bit strange. Why did he need to put two sets of tableware when he was eating alone?
Chu Ye placed another set of tableware opposite and opened a bottle of Maotai and placed it opposite.
This location in the hall was where Chen Jianguo took him most often when he was in college. In the words of the fat man, sitting here has a good view and can take in every beautiful woman in the hall.
Funny to say, the first time he invited Shen Yixue to dinner was at this table.
Five years later, sitting in this position again, it was a completely different scene.
Looking at the empty seats opposite, Chu Ye sighed.
"Damn fat man, I told you that I would treat you to the best wine and the most luxurious meal."
"I want to look for you now, but I can't find you."
Chu Ye was not in the mood to eat. He looked at the table of dishes but had no appetite. He was about to get up and prepare to leave when an angry curse suddenly sounded in the hall.
"Are you tired of living? I ordered green pepper potato shreds, and you served me vinegar potato shreds. You don't take me seriously, do you?"
An unpleasant voice sounded, yelling angrily.
There were more than a dozen people sitting at that table, and the scolder was a bald middle-aged man with a gold chain as thick as a finger around his neck, who was yelling at a waiter.
"I'm sorry, sir. It was our kitchen's mistake. I'm sorry!" The waiter had never seen such a scene before. He was frightened by these people with dragons and tigers tattooed on their bodies, and kept bowing and apologizing.
"Fuck! Is my apology useful? I dare to play tricks on you like this, brother wolf. Are you tired of living? Ah?"
"Call the cook over here!"
After a while, a fat chef came over quickly. When he saw the bald man, he bowed and apologized: "Brother Lang, I'm really sorry. The kitchen is too busy today. Please bear with me..."
"I will take care of your mother!"
The bald man stared angrily, suddenly grabbed the plate of shredded potatoes on the table, and threw it hard on the cook's face!
"ah!"
There was a scream in the hall!
The plate of hot shredded potatoes hit the cook hard in the face, and the hot oil splashed all over him!
This scream made Chu Ye, who was about to open the door and leave, suddenly stop!
The originally dim eyes suddenly shrank at this moment!
In an instant, a wave of hot blood surged from the bottom of Chu Ye's heart!
This scream is the voice of Chen Jianguo!
"Smelly fat man, who do you think you are, how dare you negotiate terms with me? Get out of here! I don't want to see you!"
The bald middle-aged man kicked the cook hard enough that he fell to the ground.
The cook got up from the ground and lowered his head timidly. Even though he was bullied like this, he kept apologizing.
When the other waiters in the restaurant saw this scene, they were so frightened that they didn't even dare to take a breath.
The guests in the hall also turned their faces and pretended not to see it.
Obviously, everyone is afraid of the bald man!
However.
Chu Ye doesn't care about any bullshit Brother Lang.
The cook had his back turned to him just now, so Chu Ye didn't see clearly.
Now, he immediately walked back to the hall, rushed towards the back kitchen in the direction the cook left.
"Hey, what are you doing? This is the kitchen and you are not allowed to enter!"
At the door of the kitchen, a waiter stopped Chu Ye, pointed at the sign at the door and shouted: "Didn't you see there is a notice here? The kitchen is an important place and no one is allowed to enter!"
Chu Ye didn't care about this, he pushed the waiter away!
In the kitchen, seven or eight chefs were busy. The sultry air was almost suffocating, and the strong and pungent smell of chili peppers made it difficult to breathe. Several figures were busy going back and forth, and every cook's face was full of exhaustion.
Chu Ye glanced around, but didn't see Chen Jianguo.
Could it be that he heard wrong just now?
"Did you hear that the gangster named Brother Wolf is here again? It's so abominable. He was still making trouble just now!"
"It seems that the wrong dish was served, which made them furious and even beat someone!"
"Oh, it was Lao Chen who was beaten. Lao Chen's life is also miserable. I heard that he used to be the owner of this restaurant. He was cheated and went bankrupt. Now he is reduced to working as a cook to make money to pay off debts!"
"What a sin. Mr. Chen is such a good man, but his life is so miserable. God is so unfair!"
"Don't you know? That man named Brother Lang was one of the people who tricked him back then! These bastards, they tricked people into bankruptcy and refused to give up. They insisted on squeezing out the last of Lao Chen's flesh and blood! Oh, how pitiful they are.
!”
Just as Chu Ye sighed, this conversation came to his ears.
Then, he saw a fat figure leaning over the faucet, carefully wiping the burns on his face.
It’s Chen Jianguo!
Chu Ye strode over.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Chen Jianguo was startled, turned around suddenly, and without even raising his head, he bowed and apologized in fear:
"I'm sorry, manager. It was my fault. I don't dare anymore. Please don't fire me. Please, I will work hard. I really need money. Please don't fire me..."
Chen Jianguo thought it was the manager who came to settle a score with him, so he immediately began to plead for mercy.
Chu Ye felt heartbroken when he saw it.
"Old Chen..."
Chu Ye couldn't help it anymore and hugged Chen Jianguo's shoulders.
