After returning to the restaurant, Yuan Zhou had made up his mind about the dishes for lunch, but he hadn't taken any action yet.
On the other side, Ling Hong drove along the same road where he had met Ruan Xiaoqing a few days ago.
It was the time when lunch was about to begin.
As expected, Ruan Xiaoqing was walking on the road in the striped sportswear again.
Ruan Xiaoqing was tall and had long legs. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail that swayed behind her head. Her face was slightly pale, and her lips were very pale. However, her eyes were big and bright. She looked a little weak and beautiful.
But when he got close to her and talked, he could feel Ruan Xiaoqing's strength and gentleness. The slight sweat on her forehead didn't affect her elegance at all.
"Lunch?" Ling Hong slowed down the car slowly, opened the window and asked naturally.
"Um, lunch." Ruan Xiaoqing nodded her head.
"Can I give you a ride?" Ling Hong asked.
"No need. I like to walk. It consumes more energy that way," Ruan Xiaoqing said with a smile.
"Alright. I'm leaving." Ling Hong shrugged and then said.
"Goodbye." Ruan Xiaoqing waved her hand and said.
"See you in the restaurant." Ling Hong corrected her and then drove away.
Ruan Xiaoqing nodded her head readily and then continued walking at a moderate speed.
The seemingly familiar conversation between the two came to an end.
When she got out of the restaurant, Ruan Xiaoqing went straight to line up and then took out the thermos flask from the small bag on her back.
"Actually, you can order the Longan Red Date Tea in the restaurant. It's very delicious." Just when Ruan Xiaoqing was drinking the hot water leisurely, the person in front of her couldn't help but say.
This person was none other than the very conspicuous Xia Yu. Of course, she was conspicuous because of her height. A girl who was 1.8 meters tall in flat shoes was indeed very conspicuous.
"But there are still 41 minutes before it's my turn to order. After that, it will take another 4 minutes and 20 seconds for it to be served. But I can't wait that long." Ruan Xiaoqing said with a smile.
"Your calculation is very accurate." Xia Yu paused for a while and then said.
"I'm just sensitive to numbers." Ruan Xiaoqing said.
"I'm also very sensitive to numbers. No, I should be sensitive to statistics." There was also a girl behind Ruan Xiaoqing.
This girl was the one who came to the Yuanzhou shop several times a month to buy lottery tickets. It just so happened that she came today.
When he heard someone say that he was sensitive to numbers, he couldn't help but reply.
"I'm only sensitive to the scoreboard." Xia Yu shrugged.
"By the way, my name is Xia Yu. My hometown is Chengdu. I grew up in the US." Because Xia Yu's body had started to develop in a better direction, her cheerful personality had returned. She directly introduced herself.
"I'm Ruan Xiaoqing, a local of Chengdu," said Ruan Xiaoqing.
"Chen Ji, I'm Chen Ji, but I'm not from Chengdu, I'm from Yan City." Another girl who bought lottery tickets also pushed up her glasses and introduced herself.
"Since I've introduced you, I guess we're acquainted. If you have any problems in the future, you can look for me. I live there." Xia Yuyao pointed at her home and said straightforwardly.
"I don't come here often," Chen Ji said hesitantly.
"As long as you come to the shop, you can look for me," Ruan Xiaoqing said after a pause. If she was still working, she definitely wouldn't have this much freedom.
"I wonder what Boss Yuan is cooking today. I'm so hungry," Xia Yu said as she rubbed her stomach.
"Every time I come to Boss Yuan's place, I feel so excited." Chen Ji nodded.
"Boss Yuan's culinary skills are indeed extraordinary," Ruan Xiaoqing added.
Friendship between girls sometimes came so suddenly. In an instant, the three of them liked each other. Moreover, their personalities were not bad.
For the rest of the waiting time, Ruan Xiaoqing did not wait quietly for the first time. Instead, she chatted with Xia Yu and Chen Ji along the way.
When it was the three of them's turn, they felt that time passed faster than usual.
Along the way, the three of them talked about their work, shopping, eating, sports, and so on. Only when the dishes were served did the three of them stop to eat seriously.
When Yuan Zhou saw this scene, he was puzzled. 'When did these three get to know each other?'
As for Ling Hong, who had parked his car, he did not find any time when Ruan Xiaoqing was free. Therefore, the two of them did not even greet each other when they entered the shop.
It was now mid-November. As the Singles Day was approaching, Wan and Chen Wei were ganged up on by the customers of the Yuanzhou shop because they were single. Naturally, the location of the meal was still inside the Yuanzhou shop.
While cooking, Yuan Zhou thought regretfully that he was sad that he would not be able to eat with the chefs today.
Fortunately, the diners had a sense of propriety and only ordered one dish per person.
After the Double Eleven, Ruan Xiaoqing had been in the shop for a total of 14 days. Yuan Zhou had always kept this in mind.
Tomorrow is exactly half a month. After the 15th day, the 16th day, which is the day after tomorrow, the crab buns will be ready, Yuan Zhou thought to himself.
"Just in time to look for Uncle Zhou." After breakfast, Yuan Zhou washed his hands and recalled his memo.
After drying his hands, Yuan Zhou took out his phone and called Zhou Shijie.
Naturally, Yuan Zhou called Zhou Shijie's number. After two rings, Zhou Shijie picked up.
"What a coincidence. Yuan, I was just about to look for you," Zhou Shijie said.
"Uncle Zhou, what's up?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"That Ke guy sent you something again." Zhou Shijie's tone was filled with helplessness.
"Thank you for accepting it, Uncle Zhou," Yuan Zhou said.
"The two of you are really treating me as a transfer station," Zhou Shijie grumbled.
"No, you are the proof of my friendship with Master Ke Lin," Yuan Zhou said with a smile.
"Are you kidding me?" Zhou Shijie said angrily.
"It's a tacit understanding between me and Master Ke Lin," Yuan Zhou said seriously.
"Come on, it's all because of that old man. You are also a slippery one." Zhou Shijie continued, "You don't know this, but ever since Collin returned from Rong City, he started to train his disciples. He didn't even let his own son go. It's said that the result of the training is that he wants to die."
What else could Yuan Zhou say? As a kind person, he could only mourn in his heart.
"I think that old man is delusional. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Why did you call me?" Zhou Shijie complained for a while and then returned to the topic at hand.
"I want to treat you to Shandong cuisine. I've learned a lot since our last conversation," Yuan Zhou said.
"Don't say that. If you say you've learned a lot, then you must be amazing. You are so humble that it hurts my teeth." Zhou Shijie was speechless.
It couldn't be helped. Every time Yuan Zhou said that he had learned a lot or that he was not good at cooking, he would cook a dish that he had mastered. This was not the first time this had happened.
Therefore, Zhou Shijie no longer believed Yuan Zhou's self-evaluation.
"No, I'm not good at Shandong cuisine. I only know how to cook a few dishes," Yuan Zhou repeated.
"Alright, alright. You are here to eat, right? No problem. I will bring you the things Ke Lin sent on the way," Zhou Shijie waved his hand and interrupted Yuan Zhou.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou," Yuan Zhou said, "But I have another idea."
