"This is what you call a bustling shopping street! Are you here in the wrong place?"
Xia Tian pointed to the deserted streets and closed storefronts. A gust of wind blew, and only three or two leaves were flying in the air, showing the desolation and loneliness.
"No, it's right here. Look, my store is right in front."
Yukihira Souma was also confused. He looked at the sign carefully and found that it was indeed "Sumi Avenue". Finally, he pointed at the familiar sign of his restaurant.
"Hmph, then you told me that this is the premier commercial street in the ** District, and now you haven't even seen a ghost."
Xia Tian glanced at Yukihira Souma angrily. If he had known it earlier, he would have stayed at Jixing Ryo to hone his cooking skills.
"Ah, this..."
Yukihira Soma also smiled awkwardly, and finally took advantage of Lianxiu's coaxing and deception to trick Xia Tian out, but he never expected that it would turn out like this.
"I don't care, Xingping. I've left all the food, drink and fun to you these days. You can't break your promise!"
Xia Tian waved his fist in a naked threat.
"Uh!" Yukihira Soma touched his already shriveled wallet, with an even more miserable look on his face, and thought to himself, it seems like he has to ask his father for support again.
"Okay, I understand. Let's go back to the store first. We haven't been back for such a long time. I still need to ventilate the store."
Yukihira Soma said weakly.
When Xia Tian heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly wanted to know what the current situation of his own store was like.
"It seems I have to find some time to ask how Yaezi is doing."
In this way, the two of them walked into "Xingping Restaurant" and looked at the surrounding decorations. They found that the decoration style here was similar to that of their own store. If they had to distinguish it, the space was larger and obviously more spacious.
"How about it? It's not bad. This is where I usually cook. I've been facing customers here since I was a child."
Xingping Soma pointed to a corner of the cooking table and said proudly, indeed, this is why he has skills far beyond those of his peers at this age.
With accumulated experience and understanding of customers' needs, as well as such an excellent father, as expected, some people have already won at the starting line. Xia Tian couldn't help but sigh.
Ignoring Soma Kohei's show off, Xia Tian went directly upstairs to occupy the largest room. Then, in Soma Kohei's speechless eyes, she felt at ease and relaxed.
Yukihira Souma was helpless and could only simply go upstairs and start cleaning up. Xia Tian continued to visit. Xia Tian also found that the kitchen here was open, but it was not suitable for Neon Cuisine compared to his small shop.
It is light, but Chinese cuisine is not. The most direct thing is the cooking in Chinese cuisine, which inevitably produces oil smoke.
"Alas! This is not advisable!"
Xia Tian shook his head, and then a soft voice came from his ear.
"Well, is anyone here?"
Xia Tian looked back and saw four or five boys and girls dressed as students walking in. Among them, an innocent girl with short hair was looking at him timidly, but a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Xia Tian asked.
"The son of our former restaurant owner was a classmate. When I saw this place open today, I thought the owner and others were back."
A girl with a lively temperament stood up, but she didn't mind that it was her first meeting with Xia Tian.
"Oh, I'm Yukihei's classmate. Hello, my name is Xia Tian!"
"Xia Tian, who are you?"
"Xingping and I are in the same dormitory, so we should be considered classmates!"
Xia Tian thought for a while and said.
“It counts??”
Several people couldn't help but frowned. The short-haired girl asked excitedly:
"You and Yukihira-kun are classmates, so has he come back too?"
"Forehead!"
Xia Tian was startled by the girl's excitement and said: "Xingping is back too, please wait a moment."
After saying that, he shouted directly towards the stairs:
"Hey, Yukihira, come down. Someone is looking for you!"
"Come on, come on, I told you not to come over and help me."
There was the sound of "squeaking, squeaking" coming down the stairs and the voice of Yukihira Soma, who was full of complaints.
But when Yukihira Soma came down and saw the person in front of him, he immediately shouted in surprise:
"Ah, Kurase, and you guys, it's been a long time since we last seen each other."
"Xingping, you are really back!"
"It's true that you didn't even say a word when you came back!"
"Then Yukihira Restaurant will also be reopened?"
…
Looking at Yukihira Soma who was surrounded by several people, Xia Tian found that the short-haired girl who was the first to ask Yukihira Soma had stepped back, her face full of hesitation and nervousness.
“And, fun!.”
There was a smirk on Xia Tian's lips.
"No, I'm just here to ventilate the store."
Yukihira Soma scratched his hair and said apologetically.
"Ah! No, Yukihira, since you and the boss left, I miss your cooking day and night."
"Yeah yeah!"
"And me, please, I really want to eat the food of "Yukihira Restaurant"."
…
Hearing the longing looks in everyone's eyes, Yukihira Soma couldn't help but curled his lips:
"Hey hey hey, do you really miss me?"
"Hehehe! It's all the same, it's all the same!"
Several people smiled sheepishly, and the lively girl suddenly pulled the innocent girl named Kurase down in front of Yukihira Soma, and joked:
"But at least Kurase really misses you!"
Kurase's face turned red as he was suddenly pushed out. He waved his hands wildly and explained:
"No, no, it's not..."
But before he finished speaking, Xing Ping Soma pressed his shoulders and said:
"As expected of my classmate since kindergarten, you are the best."
At this time, this lovely innocent girl had steam coming out of her face and was about to faint, but fortunately, the sudden noise from the door saved her, otherwise Xia Tian really doubted that this girl would fall to the ground directly.
"Ah! "Xingping Restaurant" is open!"
"What!!"
"Really, the store has already called!"
"It's so good. You don't know how much I miss the taste of this store."
…
Along with the noisy sound, a group of people crowded into the small shop. These were the loyal diners of "Xingping Restaurant" for many years, and when they saw Xingping Soma, their eyes lit up.
"Yukihira-kun, please make a meal for me!"
"Me too!"
"I also want"
"Please, Yukihira-kun!"
Looking at the pair of eyes full of prayer and longing, Xingping Soma instantly felt a huge force pouring into his body, and his whole body became high-spirited.
"Okay! "Xingping Restaurant" is temporarily open today!"
Yukihira Soma put on an apron and was about to buy some ingredients, but then he saw Xia Tian who was watching a show invisibly next to him. He didn't know what he thought of, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly:
"Hey, Xia Tian, let's have a game!"
"Um??"
Xia Tian was slightly startled, looking at Yukihira Soma's eyes burning with blazing flames, she couldn't help but laugh.
