In an unknown shopping street in Adachi District, Tokyo, the summer Chinese restaurant is in full swing. After several months of fermentation and word-of-mouth spread among diners, diners flocked to the restaurant and were attracted by it.
Come on, it has been almost a week since I returned from the Loulin Ship. Today is Sunday, and the number of customers has doubled in the commercial street. Therefore, other merchants on the street have also benefited from the summer, which is also somewhat concerning.
The dilapidated commercial street adds some popularity.
Moreover, Xia Tian's Chinese restaurant has attracted a large group of office workers and students to use it as a daily meal check-in place because of its affordable prices. After all, it is difficult for them to afford a chef with amazing cooking skills like Xia Tian due to their financial ability.
Such chefs basically only work in star-rated restaurants.
Not only the delicious summer cuisine, but also the magical luminous cuisine of this small restaurant has gradually spread throughout Adachi City.
Chinese food shop!
In the store, Xia Tian is busy in the kitchen, which is only separated from the front desk by a curtain. At the front desk, Yuna Uesugi is responsible for ordering food and paying bills. Seeing Yuna Uesugi skillfully greeting guests and clearing away the tableware, it is hard to imagine that this is the first time Xia Tian meets Uesugi.
The reckless young lady when she was married.
In fact, when Xia Tian's Chinese restaurant gradually became prosperous, Xia Tian discovered that with the increase in customers, his small shop exposed a big drawback - lack of manpower.
As a small izakaya-style restaurant, the customer flow of Xia Tian's restaurant has long exceeded the limit of the number of customers for a small restaurant like his, and it is far beyond it. Usually, as soon as it opens in summer, it can't be left all day long.
Come to the kitchen, but running a restaurant involves more than just cooking, you also need to greet diners, etc.
However, Xia Tian doesn't know how to clone himself. He can't cook and greet guests at the front desk at the same time. Therefore, Xia Tian often runs back and forth between the kitchen and the front desk. Even though he has an unknown internal power and a physique far beyond ordinary people, he can't help but feel out of breath. But even like this
, I was so busy in the summer that I didn’t even care about it, and sometimes I almost didn’t even finish the cooking.
Seeing this, Xia Tian could only recruit people to deal with the shortage of manpower in the store, but it was impossible to recruit suitable people so quickly. And just when Xia Tian was a little overwhelmed by the tedious affairs in the store, Yuna Uesugi appeared.
Yes. That's right, Yuna Uesugi came to Xia Tian's side like an angel coming to the world.
That day, Xia Tian was constantly shuttling back and forth between the back kitchen and the front desk in the Chinese restaurant. Not only did he have to take care of the back kitchen, but he also had to accept the next customer's order and checkout. After a while, Xia Tian's forehead slowly had...
I was sweating, and while Xia Tian was busy, a timid voice came over.
"Boss, do you need help?"
When Xia Tian heard this, he saw that it was the eldest lady Yuuna Uesugi. Looking at the eldest lady wearing a student uniform in front of him, he asked with some confusion: "Miss, why are you here?"
Uesugi Yuna was being watched by Xia Tian, and her little face couldn't help but have a trace of blush. She said in a low voice: "Boss, I originally wanted to dine here, but you are alone here and seem to be a little busy. I can help you, just
Just like last time." After saying that, he lowered his head in embarrassment.
Only then did Xia Tian understand what Uesugi Yuna meant, but her face immediately darkened. She looked at Uesugi Yuna and was speechless. Miss, do you still know the last time? Until now, I only remember the story you had to tell with those three plates.
Thinking of this, he coughed twice, forced a smile and said:
"That Uesugi, you are a guest, how can I let you do these things? No, no, no!" After saying that, Xia Tian waved his hands again and again.
"Besides, I'm not too busy now so I can handle it on my own." But God didn't give me any face. As soon as Xia Tian finished speaking, he heard the diners keep urging:
"Boss, are my Mapo Tofu and Dabao twice-cooked pork still ready?"
“And my special pot stickers and green pepper shredded pork.”
"Mine... hasn't been uploaded yet."
The shouts from the diners one after another made Xia Tian's original smiling face suddenly freeze. Fortunately, Yuna Uesugi was not a chef, so she couldn't help with the cooking. However, the shouts that followed made her feel embarrassed.
"It's so delicious! Boss, I want to pay the bill!"
"Boss, I also want to pay the bill."
"Boss, can you clear the table?" This is a new guest.
"Haha, it's the lunch rush now, just hold on and it'll be fine." Xia Tian knew that his smile would be as fake as possible without looking in the mirror.
Uesugi Yuna lowered her head, her shoulders kept shaking, and with a hint of nasal voice, she said softly: "Boss, I am really grateful for your kindness. Last time I made a mistake, you not only forgave me, but also sent me back."
Home."
"Am I so good?" Xia Tian was very self-doubted. He clearly remembered that last time he was really afraid of this troublesome young lady, so he wanted to send her home quickly, but he didn't expect that this stupid girl didn't even know where his own home was.
"Boss, I know I caused you trouble last time." Uesugi Yuna suddenly raised her head, her eyes were moist, and she was stammering: "But I really want to help you, please give me a chance.
!" After saying that, he bowed and saluted seriously.
"What are you thinking about in this young lady's head? Is it possible that what Neon's aristocratic education teaches now?" Looking at Uesugi Yuna who couldn't stand up, Xia Tian complained feebly in her heart, if she traveled through time
It's not Xia Tian himself, but a "humanoid self-propelled cannon" like Brother Cheng, then these young ladies can only laugh!
But now Xia Tian seems to have no way to refuse. Feeling the increasing number of unkind eyes around him, he can only sigh: "A beauty is a disaster!"
Human beings are emotional creatures who prefer beautiful things, and Yuna Uesugi, a beautiful girl who is born to be in the spotlight, is even more lovable.
Now this lovable beautiful girl is looking at Xia Tian with tears in her eyes, so no matter what the reason is, it can only be Xia Tian's fault.
The eyes of other people around him were all focused on Xia Tian. Xia Tian only felt full of deep malice. At this time, a patriot was sent and shouted: "Heaven's punishment!", and everyone swarmed up and attacked!
"Asshole, is this how you treat the chef who brings you happiness!" Xia Tian couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
In the end, maybe due to the pressure of everyone, or maybe it was Uesugi Yuna's persistence that moved Xia Tian, Xia Tian first asked Uesugi Yuna to complete some simple settlement and consumption tasks.
Then Xia Tian would always pay attention to this eldest lady. If this eldest lady couldn't even do this little thing, then Xia Tian would have no choice but to laugh.
But in the end, there was no oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooves- ing.
Uesugi Yuna also applied to Xia Tian to complete other tasks. Xia Tian hesitated and agreed. From the beginning of greeting the guests, taking orders and clearing the tableware, Uesugi Yuna actually did it all. Although she was a little unfamiliar, she was slowly getting better at it.
Progress, this can't help but remind Xia Tian of his clumsiness when he first met Uesugi Yuna, but Xia Tian was able to shift his focus entirely to cooking.
In this way, Yuna Uesugi settled in Xia Tian's shop. As long as the eldest lady was free, she would come to Xia Tian's shop to help, and Xia Tian's recruitment plan could only be put on hold indefinitely...
