"As for me, I have been working hard to transform recently. I have divided my business into two parts, one is legal and the other is illegal. I am currently doing the legal part myself, and I will hand over the illegal part to Baoqiang.
Boy, it means that now Baoqiang is helping me take care of these things on the road, and I also intend to leave this to him." Ren Xuesong said.
"I understand, you want to clear your name, right?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"That's the thing. However, Baoqiang is surrounded by my people. He has to do whatever I ask him to do. He is half a puppet." Ren Xuesong said with a smile.
"Half a puppet? That's quite impressive. My friend's shop was closed just as soon as it was told." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"What?!" Ren Xuesong on the other end of the phone was startled and asked, "Boss, which store of your friend has he closed?"
"The newly opened Wang Yutian's Sismail on the pedestrian street is a store opened by my friend. I came here today to have a meal, but unexpectedly, my subordinates shut it down." Lin Zhiming said.
"Wang Yutian's Sismail? I understand, boss, I will take Baoqiang to find you right now!" Ren Xuesong said and hung up the phone.
Lin Zhiming put down the phone and looked at the waiters next to him. He was about to say that I have helped you solve the problem, but he found that everyone was looking at him with disdain.
"Young people, they all say that you Hokkien people like to brag. I didn't believe it before, but I do now!" said the old waiter.
"The guy on the other end of the phone is really cooperating with you to act cool, isn't he?" Another waiter said after him.
Lin Zhiming was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the whole process of his phone call was watched by these people. They thought he was acting on the phone!
"Ask your Chef Tian to come over, and you will be able to resume business soon!" Lin Zhiming said.
Several waiters shook their heads. No one paid attention to Lin Zhiming. They all felt that Lin Zhiming was showing off.
"How is it, are you embarrassed?" Gu Feiyan asked with a smile.
"It's quite a bit!" Lin Zhiming scratched his head in embarrassment.
Just then, the restaurant door opened.
Tian Xinyu walked in from the door together with the manager.
Both of their faces were full of sadness.
"Our current situation can't sustain it for more than a month. We have invested too much in this store. If it does not open, not only will this store close down, but our store in Beiji City will also be affected." The manager said.
Said as he walked.
Tian Xinyu lowered her head and said after a long silence, "How about... how about I come to help and cook a meal for that person?"
"Are you stupid? Did they let you come here just to eat you? They obviously want to eat you. I have inquired about that guy. He is very lustful. In Straits City, even if you are eaten by him, his hands and eyes are very good.
, there's nothing you can do. Let's forget it, let's think of other ways." The manager said, walking to the lobby of the restaurant, and at a glance he saw Lin Zhiming and Gu Feiyan sitting by the window.
"What's going on? Aren't we closed for business? Why are there still customers coming?" the manager asked with a frown.
"Manager, this gentleman said that he is a regular customer of the Beiji City main store. It is raining outside again, so he asked him to come in and have a seat and drink a glass of water!" someone explained.
"Oh...that's it." The manager took another look at Gu Feiyan. After all, Gu Feiyan was so beautiful.
"Sir, we are not open for business now, so please make it easier for you," the manager said.
"Manager Li, I haven't seen you for a while. I've lost a lot of weight." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"Huh? Do you know me?" The manager looked at Lin Zhiming doubtfully.
At this moment, the manager suddenly noticed that Tian Xinyu was walking past him quite quickly.
"Lin...Mr. Lin." Tian Xinyu looked at Lin Zhiming excitedly, her face turning slightly red because of her excitement.
"Chef Tian, long time no see." Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Yeah, yeah!" Tian Xinyu nodded vigorously.
"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Gu Feiyan, Feiyan, and this is the restaurant chef, Chef Tian Xinyutian." Lin Zhiming introduced each other to Gu Feiyan and Tian Xinyu.
Tian Xinyu looked at Gu Feiyan, rubbed her hands awkwardly, and said, "Hello."
"Hello... Zhi Ming, do you really know each other?" Gu Feiyan asked in surprise.
"Yes!" Lin Zhiming nodded and said, "After eating Chef Tian's steak, I was so shocked that I asked Manager Li to recommend it. It was also at that time that I became friends with Chef Tian."
"I didn't expect that Chef Tian not only cooks delicious food, but is also so beautiful!" Gu Feiyan said with a smile.
Tian Xinyu lowered her head nervously and stammered, "You, you are also very, very beautiful."
The manager on the side was confused. Tian Xinyu was very shy. Under normal circumstances, even if someone wanted to see her, Tian Xinyu would not meet her. Therefore, he had no impression of what Lin Zhiming said that he introduced Tian Xinyu to her.
.
Logically speaking, he should be impressed by this kind of thing.
"Manager Li, can't you remember?" Lin Zhiming asked with a smile when he saw Manager Li standing beside him stupidly.
Manager Li frowned and walked to Lin Zhiming's side. He looked at the nervous Tian Xinyu and then at the smiling Lin Zhiming.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
"You...you are the king?" Manager Li looked at Lin Zhiming excitedly.
Lin Zhiming smiled and said, "What king, my surname is Lin."
"I know, I know!" Manager Li understood everything when he saw Lin Zhiming's smile. He reached out excitedly to hold Lin Zhiming's hand and said, "I didn't expect to see you here. It's really unexpected."
Come to think of it, I’m really honored, extremely honored!”
"We can always meet again if we are destined!" Lin Zhiming said.
Gu Feiyan on the side looked at Manager Li with confusion. Isn't this just a meeting between ordinary friends? How could she be so excited? She even used honorifics.
The waiters and chefs next to them were also dumbfounded. They had never seen Manager Li and Chef Tian so excited, especially Chef Tian. He was an introverted person who hardly talked to others. How could he meet that beloved person?
Do you get so excited when you brag about a man?
"Sit down, don't stand." Lin Zhiming said.
Tian Xinyu and Manager Li both sat at the table.
"I asked why Xinyu insisted on opening the store here. It turns out it's you..." Manager Li was talking when he suddenly felt a murderous intention coming towards him.
This murderous intention came from Lin Zhiming.
Manager Li quickly changed his words and said, "It turns out that Strait City is a great place, haha, haha."
"Strait City is really a good place!" Lin Zhiming nodded repeatedly.
"Mr. Lin, did you only know that we opened the store today?" Manager Li asked.
"Yeah!" Lin Zhiming nodded, and then said, "I was originally thinking of bringing my girlfriend and children over for a meal, but I didn't expect that you guys closed down."
"Is this your daughter?" Tian Xinyu looked at Lin Wan'er and asked.
"Well, his parents are gone, so I took her with me, just like my daughter." Lin Zhiming said.
"Oh..." Tian Xinyu nodded and glanced at Gu Feiyan secretly.
"By the way, Manager Li, why is your store closed?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Hey... I don't know what to say about this." Manager Li sighed.
"Tell me briefly." Lin Zhiming said.
"The thing is like this, our store opened a few days ago, and the business was very good at that time. Later, a man named Huang Baoqiang came. He ate our food and said he liked it very much. I wanted to celebrate his birthday in a few days.
At that time, Xinyu was able to go to his house to cook in private. As you know, Xinyu was timid and would never go to other people’s homes to cook, so she refused. Unexpectedly, the man became angry at that time and said that he would not agree.
It would make it impossible for our store to open. We didn't take it seriously at the time, but a large number of gangsters came the next day. They said they dared to open a store and they destroyed the store for us, and then blocked the entrance of the store.
In the end, we had no choice but to temporarily close the business." Manager Li explained.
"Didn't you call the police?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"We looked for it, but the police chased them away one after another. We also found out later that the man named Huang Baoqiang was a big brother in the Straits City. Calling the police had no effect at all. He had hundreds of pawns. Alas!
"Manager Li sighed.
"It's so majestic." Lin Zhiming said with a sneer.
"Later I wanted to persuade Xinyu to agree to him, but I also heard that Huang Baoqiang was a lecher, so I knew that if Xinyu was allowed to go to his house, Xinyu would definitely suffer a loss, so I didn't persuade her.
Happy!" Manager Li said.
"In what age, there are still bullies like this!" Gu Feiyan said angrily.
"There are people like this in all ages and places. We also encountered such people in Beiji City. It was Sister Liu who came forward to settle the matter." Manager Li said.
"Liu Ruyan?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes, after you left... no, in the past few months, Sister Liu San has been very caring about the main store in Beiji City." Manager Li said.
"Oh..." Lin Zhiming nodded and said nothing more.
At this moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly opened from the outside, and then Ren Xuesong walked in with a large group of people.
The appearance of this large group of people really startled everyone in the store. The waiters and chefs all got up and hid in the corner, for fear of being beaten by these people.
Manager Li stood up with an ugly face, took two steps forward, and blocked the table.
"Brother Huang..." Manager Li looked at the man next to Ren Xuesong with a flattering smile on his face.
However, the other party ignored him at all.
Ren Xuesong led a group of people to Lin Zhiming's table.
"You're done, you're going to be beaten!"
"Yeah, I should have known better that I shouldn't have let them in!"
Several waiters secretly thought in their minds that in their opinion, Huang Baoqiang must have known that there was a customer coming to the store, so he led his men to kill them aggressively. The purpose was very simple, he definitely wanted to beat people up and destroy the store.
Just when everyone was thinking this, Huang Baoqiang suddenly made a loud noise, knelt down in front of the guest, and then directly hit his head on the ground.
There was a muffled sound, and the impact was extremely solid.
"Boss Lin, I was wrong!" Huang Baoqiang said excitedly.
