As the weather gets colder, the business of hot pot restaurants is gradually picking up compared to previous days.
Six o'clock is the prime time. Although not all the twenty tables in the store are occupied, there are only a few tables missing.
And in this restaurant without private rooms, the busiest place is undoubtedly the corner where two tables sit next to the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The table was full of college students with childish looks on their faces. They hadn't even drank yet, but they were already having heated discussions.
"I'm telling you, Montreal is the best place to buy, so buy more."
"No, our shrimp crackers are the best seller."
"Potato chips are the way to go."
"Brother Jia, where are the drinks? Which of your drinks sells best?"
"Iced red tea."
"The taste is different, I have to use Coke."
Seven franchisees from major schools are discussing what is selling well and should be stocked in more quantities, and what is selling poorly should be purchased in less quantity.
Zhao Xiaokai was sitting slightly in the middle, listening to their heated discussion, but what he was thinking about was that Wang Keke didn't have any discernment at all, and he didn't come over to say hello and show off his identity...
Just as he was thinking about it, Xiao Shen, who had become more and more silent after arriving here, filled a glass of water for him with great discernment.
Zhao Xiaokai looked at him and smiled: "Why, you don't get used to it?"
Xiao Shen shook his head quickly, but he really felt that he shouldn't come.
When Chen Zui asked him to come, he said that he would not miss a bite, otherwise you would have to eat by yourself at night.
In fact, this is not the case. As the only warehouse manager, this position only focuses on goods and shipments, but it is a little important.
Three days before he came to work, Chen Zui and Zhao Xiaokai checked the inventory and accounts respectively.
The result was that they were satisfied with Xiao Shen playing games on his big head in the middle of the night instead of taking a box of instant noodles and a bottle of water from Curry.
Especially when I think of myself in the warehouse in the middle of the night fucking World of Warcraft and getting hungry, surrounded by food and drink, this really requires a certain amount of concentration...
So in future plans, Xiao Shen didn't know that he had his place.
And in fact, his status is not as low as he thought. Even though he is very shy, the seven franchisees all show great respect to this kid in charge of the warehouse and are willing to make friends with him.
It's a pity that Xiao Shen is still very uncomfortable sitting at this table.
He really wanted to go to the kids' table next door...
Zhao Xiaokai could feel it, looked at him and shook his head, and started chatting with him about the game.
Among the seven franchisees at the table, there was only one girl. Most of them became very interested when the game was mentioned.
So Xiao Shen's confidence finally came, and he said very confidently, Chenghai 3c, he is very powerful.
Only Jiang Hong, the only female franchisee from the Normal University, was not involved. She had nothing to do during this period. Through constant observation, she said in between their words: "The service in this store is really good."
.”
Thinking of this, she raised her head in surprise: "But why is no one serving us?..."
So everyone realized, yes...
Why is there no hot towel on the table that is necessary for every table...
While people were waiting for their meal, the table was filled with complimentary snacks, and they didn't...
Also, every waiter in the store treats guests with enthusiasm, smiles and a welcoming attitude, but when they come here, the waiter hasn't even been here yet...
Li Shangmiao echoed: "Yeah, what about..."
Zhao Xiaokai was very satisfied with Jiang Hong's discovery and Li Shangmiao's praise. He looked at his watch and saw half a minute to six o'clock, so he said:
"Because we are not customers of this store. This store belongs to Chen Zui."
Xiao Shen's reaction was the strongest. He was thirsty just now and was drinking water when he heard the words. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and vomited a little and then held it back.
The other seven people looked at Zhao Xiaokai, trying to distinguish whether his words were true or false.
Zhao Xiaokai's eyes were fixed on the main entrance of the hot pot restaurant: "Here we come."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone except Xiao Shen subconsciously stood up.
So, they saw such a scene.
Boss Chen, who usually wears simple clothes, put on a brand new casual suit today, which is casual yet formal.
And because of this outfit, his whole person has a different temperament than usual. Although he still looks handsome and friendly, he has an indescribable nobility, and this nobility brings a small sense of distance.
Of course, Chen Zui is not the point at first glance.
The point is, Zhao Wanrou, who walked with him, held his arm, and acted very affectionately, was so beautiful.
When Zhao Xiaokai met Zhao Wanrou for the first time in a hot pot restaurant, he exclaimed: "Isn't she a female celebrity?"
Now these words also more or less represent the amazement of the seven franchisees.
The simple ponytail is neat and crisp, and the black baseball cardigan jacket is full of energy. Jeans style does not seem to be popular at the moment, but it looks fashionable when worn on her legs.
Under the spotlight in the store, even in such a casual outfit, she looked like she was walking on the red carpet, easily attracting the attention of the audience.
As the two of them entered the store, the welcome from the waiters changed instantly.
"Sister is here, good evening, little boss."
"Well, let's go."
"Little boss, my noodle making skills have improved recently."
"Show me later."
"Sister, the hot water in the office is ready."
"Oh, I see."
After greeting each other, the identities of the two people were revealed.
Zhao Wanrou also let go of Chen Zui's arm at this time: "You go over first."
Chen said honestly that his mind is still a little confused now, but this does not prevent the barrages from being here.
[My sister is so good at it, I transformed it...]
[You take one shot, I take one shot, Wanrou will always be mine...]
【.......If you two don't get married where you are, it will be difficult for the marriage to end!】
Chen Zui turned on the shielding mode and said to Zhao Wanrou: "Well, I'll go over there."
Zhao Wanrou smiled and walked into the bar.
Wang Keke, who also saw this scene just now: "Sister...are you going to change your tune today?"
Zhao Wanrou scratched the tip of her nose: "What are you thinking about? Why don't you just hold her hand? It's not over yet."
"What's not over yet?"
…
Here, Chen is sitting down.
Sure enough, I felt different.
When going out, a man's face not only depends on his soft and hard skills such as clothing, status, car, etc., but also a more secular criterion, which is whether the woman around you can support you enough.
Looking at the familiar expressions of Xiao Shen, Li Shangmiao, Jia Chaoliang, Cai Qiang, Wei Xiaoming, Xu Fei, and the only female franchise member Jiang Hong.
It was obvious that his sister was devastated by this scene.
Of course, there must be a reason why they learned that he was the owner of this hot pot restaurant, but Chen Zui felt that this reason accounted for 30%. The scene of Zhao Wanrou holding her arm affectionately on the stage was more visual.
impact.
In fact, this should be the case.
Even Zhao Xiaokai, who was familiar with him and Zhao Wanrou, had to mutter: "Third brother, what's going on? Do you want to call me sister-in-law..."
Then everyone realized that they hadn't thought wrongly. Were they really not siblings?...
Chen responded calmly: "Don't talk nonsense, by the way, have you ordered?"
Everyone shook their heads.
As soon as Chen Zui waved, a waitress with good features came to his side: "Little boss."
"Come up with the most distinctive ones, and you can watch the rest."
"okay."
After speaking, the waiter left without saying much.
Eight people, including Xiao Shen, took a look and chose to accept the reality.
But suddenly, I felt that the distance between me and Chen Zui had suddenly widened. They were not social veterans, they were both college students, so they felt a little unnatural.
What Chen wants most is this effect. Of course, bosses and subordinates can be friends, but they still need to maintain an appropriate sense of distance. The most important thing for a boss is not to be as close as brothers to employees, but to talk about money with them and make more money for them.
Lots of opportunities.
Therefore, he was not embarrassed and immediately started chatting with the franchisees.
But within three minutes, Chen Zui noticed that their eyes were collectively drifting behind him.
He turned his head and saw Zhao Wanrou, who had taken off her baseball cardigan and was wearing a solid-color T-shirt, walking over holding a tray with ten small cups of milk tea on it.
She came to Chen Zui's side, smiled slightly, and nodded to the classmates at the table. The little boys immediately straightened up, as if they had seen the class teacher.
When Chen Zui saw this, he knew that tonight, Zhao Wanrou was determined to help him do his best to save face.
His guess was correct. Zhao Wanrou looked at him and said in a tone that was almost never seen in daily life: "Help me, before you drink, drink something hot to warm your stomach.
"
Chen Zui's whole body was numb. Looking at the tenderness between her eyebrows and the way she was holding the tray with milk tea stuck in front of the mountains, only one sentence came to mind.
