Yu Shu returned to the room and asked Lin Fu to send over the account books for the past few days. Xiao Die was at the side making tea and grinding ink. Yu Shu hastily calculated the income and expenditure of each item. Looking at the numbers on the paper, even though she was mentally prepared, she could not help but be surprised.
It had only been four days since the opening of the restaurant on the fifteenth day of the first month. Every day, they would start cooking in the middle of the night. It was easy to sell three to four hundred dishes. Including the cashier in the private room and various kinds of drinks, they could make a thousand or eight hundred yuan a day. After deducting the costs and taxes, if this continued, the monthly profit of Wang Ji Lou would be more than ten thousand yuan, and this was still a conservative estimate.
In fact, this was not strange. The reason why the wine and dishes of Wang Ji Lou could be three times higher than ordinary restaurants had its own reasons. Yu Shu looked at the purchase list and personally went to the kitchen. The ingredients used in the building, ranging from deer, roe deer, and bear meat, to small scallions and garlic, were all of the best quality. Not only were the dishes delicious, but they also had the effect of nourishing. There were also treasures of heaven and earth. It was said that eating it could bring good luck and prolong one's life. It was said that eating such treasures could bring good luck and prolong one's life, so people flocked to it like ducks. For example, treasures such as the albino monkey head, the Dai Yan blood swallow, and the South Sea yellow-lipped dragon could not be found outside, but they could all be eaten in Wang Ji Lou.
Looking at the account books, Yu Shu could not help but sigh: Such a big business, it must be hard for Xue Rui to support it.
She remembered that before she opened for business, she had asked Xue Rui what he would do if he made a loss with such a large investment. At that time, he told her that he would only make a profit when doing business. Even now, she could still remember his confident tone. Now, it seemed that he wasn't being arrogant.
"Miss, the hangover soup is ready. Do you want to drink it?" Xiao Qing came in with a plate.
"I didn't drink, so I don't need this. Let's go and bring it to your Young Master. He drank more than two pots of Jin Quan at noon." Yu Shu put away the account book, put it under her armpit, and led Xiao Qing downstairs to bring the hangover soup to Xue Rui. She also greeted him and handed over the account book before going home.
When they arrived downstairs, the door of the elegant room that Xue Rui was resting in was closed. Yu Shu knocked on the door, but she did not hear any response from inside. She stretched out her hand and pushed the door open with a squeak. She glanced inside and saw that there was no one in the living room.
At this moment, the waiter, Gui Liu, stuck his head out from the opposite building. When he saw Little Qing's figure downstairs, he whispered, "Little Qing, come up here. There's a female customer here who spilled wine. Bring her to change.
Xiao Qing looked at the hangover soup in her hands and wanted to say that she was busy. But when she turned around, Gui Liu had already retracted his head. Yu Shu saw this and said, "Bring it over. I'll bring it in. You go and entertain the guests."
Xiao Qing hurriedly thanked her, picked up her dress, and trotted up the opposite stairs.
"Big brother? Are you inside? " Yu Shu reached out and knocked on the door again. There was still no response from inside. She was puzzled and walked in with the hangover soup.
The decoration of this elegant room was similar to the one upstairs. There was a tea room after entering the door. On the north side, there was a red sandalwood soft couch with drooping flowers. On the left and right side, there were stained glass screens with yellow pear wood bases, blocking two paulownia doors. On the east side was the bedroom, and on the west side was the study. There was a tortoise lantern at the door.
The door of the study room was open. Yu Shu looked inside to make sure there was no one inside, then she turned around and walked to the bedroom. She walked around the screen shelf in front of the door and looked up to see what was inside. Under the window on the north side, there was a big rose chair made of ivory. A slender figure was lying on the back. The corner of the robe was turned up, revealing loose white socks. A pair of boots was slanted on the carpet. There was no incense in the room, and there was a faint smell of wine.
It turned out that he was asleep. No wonder he didn't respond to her just now, Yu Shu thought.
She looked at the hangover soup in her hand and was about to go in to wake him up. Just as she stepped into the door, she suddenly felt that it was inappropriate for her to barge into his bedroom like this. She thought it was better to go out and call a waiter to serve him. She couldn't let him sleep like this, or he would catch a cold.
"… Water."
As soon as Yu Shu stepped out, she heard the person on the couch murmured in a low voice, followed by two light coughs. She hesitated for a moment, but she was still worried. She pushed the door and walked to the side of the big chair. She put the hangover soup on the tea table and poured a cup of tea. She patted Xue Rui's shoulder with one hand and said, "Big brother, drink some water."
Xue Rui's body moved, but he didn't turn around. The smell of wine around him proved that he had drunk too much. Seeing that she couldn't wake him up, Yu Shu bent down and shook his arm.
"Big brother, big …"
She didn't expect that after she shouted twice, her wrist would be caught. The person on the chair suddenly moved. He grabbed her wrist with one hand, turned around, and wrapped his arm around her waist. He forcefully pulled her to his chest, and then quickly turned around. In the blink of an eye, he pressed her down on the chair.
"Plop!" The cup fell from her hand, and the tea, along with it, fell onto the yellow carpet.
In an instant, the world turned upside down, and the back of Yu Shu's head hit the soft cushion. She was so shocked that she took a deep breath. The mellow smell of wine made her eyes widen. In her dim vision, there was a sharp face. Under the ink-like eyebrows, a pair of black eyes were half hidden under the eyelashes. They were like two thick glass windows, and there were two figures hidden in them. It was her panicked face.
She didn't know why, but Yu Shu felt that Xue Rui was dangerous and strange at this time, so she didn't dare to act rashly. Moreover, her hands and feet were pressed down by him, so she couldn't move even if she wanted to. She could only stiffen her neck, shrink back, and ask in a low voice, "Big brother?"
That pair of eyes gently closed, and a low and hoarse voice slowly came into her ears, "Who is your big brother?"
Hearing this, Yu Shu wanted to cry but had no tears. She thought that it was over. He was drunk, and he didn't even recognize her.
"You, it's you, Big Brother Xue. You're drunk. Get up."
Even though half of Xue Rui's weight was placed behind her waist, Yu Shu still felt a little suffocated being hugged by such a big man. In just a moment, she felt suffocated to the point that her ears started to heat up. She tried to move her hands and feet, wanting to find a gap to break free from him. Unexpectedly, the moment she moved, the arm behind her waist suddenly tightened. She stared at him with widened eyes, and her lips that were inches away from his gently opened and closed. "No."
Don't what? Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that he was answering her words just now, which meant that he didn't want to get up.
Yu Shu was angry. This person was usually reasonable, but how did he become stupid when he was drunk?
Looking at the handsome face that was less than half a foot away from her, Yu Shu suddenly put on a serious face, "Get up."
Xue Rui's eyes stared at her changing expression, and he lazily said, "No."
Yu Shu narrowed her eyes, and she lost her patience. No matter how good their relationship was, if he continued to press down on her like this, she would fall out with him. She couldn't move her hands and feet, but she still had her head, and knocking out two of his teeth was nothing.
"You've thought it through, you really don't want to get up?"
As soon as the voice fell, Yu Shu only felt her vision darkened, and a warm and soft thing fell on her forehead. It was like a ball of cotton dipped in water, and it gently touched the center of her eyebrows with a faint trace of cautiousness. This inexplicable gentleness seemed to have some kind of curse, and it made her unconsciously hold her breath. She tightly closed her eyes, and her mind was a mess.
"Don't."
Xue Rui whispered in her eyebrows, and his thumb that was holding her wrist moved down half an inch, and he slightly raised his head, looking at her face that was shrouded in his shadow. The faint fragrance of flower tea lingered on the tip of his nose, dispersing the bitterness in his heart, and teasing him. Once again, he lowered his head, and kissed her lips. The soft touch made him open his mouth uncontrollably, and he sucked on her slightly thick lower lip. His breathing quickened, and his arms around her waist tightened again.
Yu Shu suddenly opened her eyes, as if she had just woken up from a dream. Her face instantly turned red, and she turned her head with all her might to escape his kiss. She kicked her legs, clenched her teeth, and struggled with all her might, not caring if she would hurt herself or not.
After struggling for a while, the grip on her wrist loosened. Yu Shu seized the opportunity to pull her hand out and pushed Xue Rui's shoulder. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she actually flipped him over. As soon as she was free, she quickly crawled out from under his body and tumbled down the recliner before breaking into a run and ran out of the bedroom that was suffused with the fragrance of wine.
Xue Rui supported himself with one hand on the bed, and slowly sat up. He bent one knee, and one long leg fell to the ground. He raised his head, and looked at the swaying door not far away. His eyes were in a daze for a moment, and he finally recovered from the intimacy just now. He lowered his head, and covered half his face with one hand, and let out a low, annoyed groan from his throat.
The hand on his knee clenched into a fist, and heavily hit his knee. Slowly, he raised it again, and gently touched his burning lips. After a moment, he let out a soft laugh.
"Ha …"
She didn't think that he would have such a despicable time. He pretended to be drunk to get closer to her, but who would have thought that he would accidentally go overboard.
With her temper, she must be so angry right now that she couldn't wait to give him a few punches.
Forget it, if she wants to hit him, then let her hit him. After all, he was the one who took advantage of her. Unfortunately, he still had to continue to act dumb, and couldn't admit it confidently.
Xue Rui used one hand as a pillow behind his head, and lay back down. He closed his eyes again, and a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth. In his heart, he thought: This is enough. This sweet taste is enough for me to ignore all the pain and continue to endure. Xue Rui's thoughts weren't wrong at all. Right now, Yu Shu really wanted to beat him up.
Running out of the bedroom, Yu Shu suddenly stopped at the door, and came back to her senses.
That's not right, why did she run? She was the one who suffered, why was she feeling guilty?
Yu Shu raised her hand to wipe her mouth indignantly, and then spat on the ground. She bit her lower lip, and seemed to have thought of something, and her face turned red. She stood there for a moment, then put her hands on her waist, and turned to walk back. When she reached the bedroom door, she kicked it open, and stared fiercely at the figure lying on the recliner. She strode forward and looked down. This fellow actually had his eyes closed, and he was sleeping comfortably. That quiet face didn't show the slightest emotion, as if everything that had just happened was all in her imagination.
Yu Shu gritted her teeth. So what if he was drunk? So when he was drunk, he could casually bite people's mouths?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She looked around, and her eyes fell on the cold hangover soup on the coffee table. She laughed evilly, and looked up and down at Xue Rui. She picked up the bowl of soup, and poured it on his lower body.
The man on the recliner frowned slightly, and didn't move, but his face was suspiciously green.
This naughty girl!
Yu Shu poured the bowl of soup, and seeing that Xue Rui didn't wake up, she lightly snorted, and turned to leave. She tidied up her hair at the door, and when she went to the courtyard, she called Gui Liu, and pointed to the room: "Go, see if your young master has sobered up."
