Chen Dafu held the jade and looked at the two people in front of him.
The two of them also looked at him.
This action was maintained for about four or five seconds, and then An Yuanyao, who was holding Liu Changqing's arm, broke the deadlock.
I asked tentatively.
"Did you have meal?"
"Nope!"
Chen Dafu answered quickly.
As he spoke, he looked around the room.
"Have you cooked? If it's done, give me a pair of chopsticks. If it's not done, forget it."
"I haven't started yet."
"pity."
Saying this, Chen Dafu put the jade pendant back into his pocket, with a somewhat disappointed look on his face.
He actually wanted to try the dishes cooked by An Yuanyao, but he just wanted to try it if he happened to have a meal. If he didn't, forget it.
After speaking, Chen Dafu looked at Liu Changqing and said.
"Then I'll go back first."
"Okay, slow down on the road."
Liu Changqing responded.
After being polite, Chen Dafu began to go downstairs, and Liu Changqing and his two men also closed the door.
After the door closed, An Yuanyao also let go of Liu Changqing's arm, looked at him and said softly.
"I'll go prepare dinner."
"I'm here to help, let's make it a little richer today."
Liu Changqing thought about this for a moment and then the two of them walked towards the kitchen.
Today, it’s time to celebrate…
———————————————————————
It's getting dark.
downstairs.
Chen Dafu stopped and turned back to glance at the floor of Liu Changqing's house. Looking at the still bright place, a trace of envy seemed to flash in his eyes.
He just stood there for a few seconds, not knowing what was going on in his mind, and it took him who knows how long before he took steps again.
In fact, Chen Dafu was somewhat envious of Liu Changqing.
In his mind, he recalled the way An Yuanyao held Liu Changqing's arm at the door just now, and he could not help but crazily envy this emotion.
When I think of when I get home...that big empty house.
Chen Dafu felt a little lonely.
He didn't say much and just walked silently. Because it was not easy to take a taxi here at Liu Changqing's house, he had to walk a little further to take a taxi.
Chen Dafu is a child who grew up with a golden key in his mouth.
As soon as he was born, he had a life that ordinary people might not be able to obtain in their entire lives.
But as we grow older.
He felt that he was not happy at all.
When he was in school, at the beginning of the school Chen Dafu attended, the students around him either came from wealthy families or from powerful families.
In such an environment, he increasingly felt that the people around him were hypocritical. Everyone who talked to him would always talk about his father.
This made him very disgusted.
Later, in order not to live such a life anymore, Chen Dafu had a big fight with his family and forcibly left the school and came to an ordinary school.
In such an ordinary school, no one knew what kind of family he was from. At the same time... he also made a few good friends.
But... as he spent money lavishly, his friends gradually began to become greedy, blindly only wanting to benefit from Chen Dafu.
After experiencing such a thing, Chen Dafu understood something.
Money is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing...
It can breed people's inner desires and amplify them infinitely.
Since then, he has had some ideas.
He didn't pay as much attention to his appearance as before, and he became like an unlearned bastard. Slowly, his reputation spread, and the wealthy families around him didn't want their children to have a close relationship with him.
As the days went by, Chen Dafu also felt a little bored.
Until...he met Liu Changqing.
Although this person was nearly ten years older than him, he didn't feel any discomfort when getting along with him, and instead felt surprisingly much more relaxed.
This is also the reason why... when Liu Changqing's daughter was taken away, Chen Dafu knew that what he said was a lie, but still chose to help him.
Liu Changqing would not flatter him like others, or treat him with respect on the surface but call him a fool or idiot behind his back.
Even when Liu Changqing had no money, he still communicated with himself as an equal and did not deliberately curry favor with himself.
When he sold the store to Liu Changqing, he still called him brother-in-law and even took him to the bathing center to have some fun.
Chen Dafu had never been to such a rubbish bathing center. The massage technician was so heavy-handed that he was pressed so hard that when he returned to the hotel, his face was pale and his limbs were weak.
But... seeing the other person's life getting better little by little, Chen Dafu was happy from the bottom of his heart, but he was also a little disappointed when he was happy.
When can I... be like him...
That way...live for yourself.
He didn't want to marry the person his father arranged for him to marry, or marry a woman with no emotional basis.
He wants...to be with the person he likes.
It's not that he is greedy for his appearance and money.
But the people who like him...
With these thoughts in his mind, Chen Dafu unknowingly came to this fairly lively area.
It was already dark, the surrounding stores were brightly lit, and there were pedestrians coming and going, but he was the only one standing there motionless.
I feel a little hungry.
Chen Dafu thought about eating something casually, since there was no one to cook for him when he got home.
Thinking of this, I randomly came to a stall.
Went in.
"Boss, what do you have to eat here?"
"Wontons, dumplings, steamed buns, pan-fried buns, and soybean pancakes. What do you want to eat?"
The landlady said with a gentle smile, and was quickly wrapping wontons in her hands without any intention of stopping.
After glancing at the landlady, Chen Dafu noticed the sauce-flavored pancake that the other party just mentioned.
He had heard of and tasted sauce pancakes, but... he had never eaten sauce pancakes. His curiosity was aroused, and he thought for a while and asked.
"This... sauce-flavored pancake, is it delicious?"
“The best thing we sell here is the soybean-flavored pancake!”
"Okay then, bring me a bowl of wontons, a big bowl, and a plate of fried buns, and then the sauce-flavored pancakes you just mentioned... By the way, how do you sell the sauce-flavored pancakes?"
"Sold by the pound."
"Then give me a dollar first."
After saying this, Chen Dafu casually found a seat, took out a small stool that was less than his knees, and sat on it.
He personally has no objection to this kind of small store. To him, eating in a luxurious restaurant is no different from eating at an ordinary street stall.
Anyway, it’s all just to fill our stomachs.
He didn't wait too long. During the short time that Chen Dafu was in a daze, the clerk of this store came over with fried buns and soybean pancakes.
Dressed simply, with an apron and a ponytail, she looked very young and energetic, with a baby-fat face.
With a smile, he placed the fried buns and sauce pancakes ordered by Chen Dafu in front of him, and then said something sweet.
“Your pancakes and pancakes!”
Hearing these words, Chen Dafu, who was sitting on the small stool, subconsciously raised his head, looked at the clerk in front of him, and looked at him carefully.
one second
two seconds
Three seconds...
Being stared at like this, the clerk who had been smiling just now was stunned. He also looked at this ordinary-looking customer. When he saw Chen Dafu still staring at him, he felt a little flustered for some reason.
Putting down the things in his hands, he hurriedly left where Chen Dafu was, returned to the store, and came to Lan Yixian, who was wrapping wontons.
His expression was not as happy as before, but rather a bit nervous.
As if complaining, he said to Lan Yixian.
"Sister...that person just kept staring at me..."
"Been staring at you?"
"it's him……"
Approaching Lan Yixian, Gu Xiyu whispered.
At the same time, he raised his hand and pointed at Chen Dafu, who was holding a piece of Jiangxiang pancake not far away with chopsticks.
Lan Yixian looked in the direction pointed by his clerk.
At first glance, I saw a man who looked ordinary and was dressed in ordinary clothes.
At this moment, he was holding disposable chopsticks, holding the Jiangxiang pancake in front of his nose, and kept smelling it. There was a trace of wretchedness in his expression.
Looks... like a psychopath.
Lan Yixian also became a little nervous and quickly warned Gu Xiyu beside her.
"Don't talk to him when I serve him the wontons later..."
"Um!"
Nodding her head heavily, Gu Xiyu responded to Lan Yixian.
For Gu Xiyu, who came to this city from her hometown to work before finishing high school, it was the luckiest thing to meet a boss like Lan Yixian.
He is kind to others, not harsh on himself, and his salary is much higher than that of other stores. When he meets such a good boss, Gu Xiyu likes him from the bottom of his heart.
Although she is not very old, she can still tell the difference between good and bad.
Just as the wontons ordered by Chen Dafu were ready, Lan Yixian filled them and handed them to Gu Xiyu.
She took it and walked towards where Chen Dafu was.
The more she looked... the more Gu Xiyu felt that something was not normal about this guest.
I picked up the Jiangxiang Pancake with my chopsticks, looked around, and smelled it for a long time. Just now... I even licked it with my tongue just now!!
This was exactly the same as the pervert she had seen on TV before!
Suddenly, Gu Xiyu began to become a little nervous.
He walked carefully to Chen Dafu, placed the wontons next to him, and then trotted away in a panic.
Don't want to wait a second longer.
This kind of behavior also made Chen Dafu a little confused, and he couldn't figure out why this little girl seemed to have seen a pervert.
His eyes returned to the Jiang Xiang Pancake again.
Chen Dafu, who had been watching for a long time, finally came to a conclusion.
I have never tried this thing before, but it seems to be a new street food that has become popular recently.
Mouthing in his mouth.
"Mao Xiang Pancake...let me taste how delicious you are!"
After saying this to himself, Chen Dafu put the cut Jiang Xiang Pancake in his mouth and chewed it.
After chewing it four or five times, his expression suddenly became dull.
This...this is!
His brain lost all thought at this moment, and Chen Dafu chewed unconsciously, feeling the aroma of the Jiang Xiang Pancake spreading in his mouth.
So damn delicious!
The more Chen Dafu ate, the more surprised he became. He started to eat as if he had discovered a great treasure. Along with the Jiangxiang pancake, he also ate fried buns and wontons.
I was conquered instantly.
These pan-fried buns are just right, and these wontons are just right!
The fried buns and wontons I had before are incomparable to the ones here!
Chewing crazily, Chen Dafu felt that his taste buds were aroused at this moment. He had never eaten such a delicious roadside stall.
Sure enough, delicious food only exists in the alleys.
He was very happy and satisfied with this meal.
Even though he clearly ordered too much, he still managed to eat it all, holding his belly, sitting on a small stool, holding his head high and closing his eyes, reminiscing...
Such strange behavior was also clearly seen by Gu Xiyu, who was cleaning up other positions.
Bending down and wiping the table with a rag, Gu Xiyu started to become a little wary when she looked at Chen Dafu, who still had an ugly smile on his face after finishing the meal.
This person...doesn't want to eat the King's meal?
Chen Dafu didn't think about it for too long. After a while, he slowly took out his wallet and shouted.
"Waiter, check out!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyu quickly put down what she was holding, came to Chen Dafu, and looked at his empty plate.
After a little calculation, he blurted out.
"Three dollars and five."
"Is it so cheap..."
After muttering, Chen Dafu took out a hundred-dollar bill from his wallet and put it on the table, stood up and said.
"Keep the change, please."
"..."
Gu Xiyu stared blankly at Chen Dafu who said these words. After reacting, she quickly called out to him.
"Wait a minute!"
After that, he picked up the hundred-yuan bill and trotted to the store. He handed the bill to Lan Yixian in a panic, and shouted anxiously.
"Sister, there is indeed something wrong with him... The one he gave to Zhang Baibai said there was no need to change it. I suspect it is a counterfeit banknote!"
