Yuan Zhou had asked Engineer Cheng to come at 2: 30 pm, but Engineer Cheng had arrived early in the morning. Of course, he didn't dare to come too early.
After all, it was not good to be too impatient. Therefore, Engineer Cheng came at lunchtime and took over the work of Cheng Ying and Zhou Jia.
He directly chased the two girls outside to greet the customers in the queue. He took the rag and squatted down, wiping vigorously with his huge and stocky body.
"The restaurant is very clean," Yuan Zhou couldn't help but say when he saw Engineer Cheng working so hard.
"I know. There is not a speck of dust in your restaurant, but I have to do something. I am your disciple," Engineer Cheng said without raising his head.
"Um, good." Yuan Zhou nodded and continued to process the ingredients.
On the other side of the restaurant, one was preparing the ingredients, while the other was wiping the tables and chairs. It was also very lively outside.
Especially Dr. Herbert and the other two who had an appointment with Mr. Gena today. Now, the three of them had already met up and were queuing up behind Wu Hai.
Of course, Ling Hong was still with Ruan Xiaoqing as usual. Before they came, however, Ling Hong told Ruan Xiaoqing that a friend was treating today. With her consent, Ling Hong agreed to Dr. Herbert's invitation.
Now, Dr. Herbert was at the front of the line. Behind him were Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing, followed by Mr. Magnon who was pushing the wheelchair.
"I didn't expect Mr. Gner to come to eat here every day. Speaking of which, we have met several times, but we haven't greeted each other," Dr. Herbert said with a smile.
"Yes, it is indeed a coincidence, and we missed each other," Ling Hong replied in fluent English.
"But fortunately, we meet now." Dr. Herbert smiled and said, "This is my good friend, Mr. Magnon, and his wife."
"Nice to meet you," Ling Hong turned his head and nodded at Magnon and his wife.
"How do you do, Mr. Wagner?" said Magnon.
"Thank you. Madam, you are also very beautiful." Ling Hong could easily say such polite words.
Moreover, what Ling Hong said was true. Sharon looked much better than when she first arrived. Her sunken cheeks were rosy, and although she was still skinny, she looked much more energetic.
"Thank you. Your girlfriend is also very beautiful," Sharon said to Ruan Xiaoqing gently.
This time, Ruan Xiaoqing blushed and said, "We are still good friends, not together yet."
Ruan Xiaoqing naturally replied in English. As an actuary, her English was very fluent.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Sharon apologized immediately.
"You're welcome. I'm the one who's pursuing her, but I haven't gotten permission yet." Ling Hong smiled wickedly and tried to ease the atmosphere.
"Speaking of which, we're here today to thank you, Gner," Herbert said.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Wagner," said Magnon.
"You're welcome. I was just asking for advice." Ling Hong shook his head.
"No, no, no. Thank you for mentioning Mr. Yuan's shop. Otherwise, I'm afraid Sharon wouldn't be able to eat right now." Magnon shook his head seriously.
Ling Hong looked at Sharon in surprise, but he didn't say anything.
Yes, Ling Hong thought Dr. Herbert was thanking him because he had found a new research direction. He didn't expect Magnon to thank him even more seriously.
"Yes, my wife has pancreatic cancer," Magnon said gently as he looked at his wife, Sharon.
"Sorry," Ling Hong quickly apologized. After all, his question just now was a bit like prying into someone's privacy.
"It's fine. It's not that I can't tell you. I just don't want people to think that I can't take care of myself, but now I have to," Sharon said cheerfully.
"I've always been here," Magnon lowered his head and kissed Sharon's forehead.
"It's only right for him to thank you. It's because you asked me about pancreatic cancer, and that's why I suggested coming here. Sharon was able to eat a third of a normal person's food. It's a miracle," Dr. Herbert said solemnly.
"No, it's not a miracle. It's because of the chef," Sharon retorted.
"Yes, yes, it's not a miracle. But I think the chef is like a miracle. His hands are magic, and the food he cooks is so delicious," Dr. Herbert mumbled.
"Thank you very much for enlightening the three of you. You're welcome. After all, I started out because I needed help," Ling Hong said honestly.
"Yes, that's why we're treating you to a meal here," Magnon said with a smile. "Although you can't make a reservation, the food here is delicious."
"Yes," Ling Hong nodded in agreement.
Ling Hong chatted passionately with Dr. Herbert, Magnon, and Sharon, who interfered from time to time. Of course, some of them would also talk to Ruan Xiaoqing.
However, Ruan Xiaoqing mostly looked at Ling Hong.
Before today, Ruan Xiaoqing never thought that Ling Hong would do anything for her. She might have thought that Ling Hong would ask about pancreatic cancer.
However, she did not expect him to contact Dr. Herbert, an American expert in pancreatic cancer. Ever since Ruan Xiaoqing learned about the disease, she had been trying to find a cure.
Of course, she also wanted to find this expert in pancreatic cancer, but she couldn't even make a phone call to Dr. Herbert's assistant, let alone see the famous expert himself.
Just from this point alone, Ruan Xiaoqing understood how much effort Ling Hong had put in when she didn't know, but he didn't let her know at all.
This made Ruan Xiaoqing's heart ache and soften. There was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Especially when she saw Ling Hong's nonchalant expression, Ruan Xiaoqing's heart ached even more. This kind of silent concern was like a breeze, comforting yet not annoying.
"Thank you." Ruan Xiaoqing looked at Ling Hong's erect hedgehog head and bright smile, and she could not help but sigh softly in her heart.
"It's lunchtime. Please come in for lunch." Zhou Jia's voice broke everyone's chatter. Immediately, the customers in the line got ready to enter the restaurant. They were very fast.
Ling Hong turned around to look at Ruan Xiaoqing out of habit. He saw Ruan Xiaoqing's complicated gaze and gentle expression. He could not help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I just wanted to thank someone." Ruan Xiaoqing looked into the restaurant when she said that.
"Thank Boss Yuan? He will be very happy. "Ling Hong did not ask for anything. He just said that.
"Yes, I will." Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
