After washing up, Yuan Zhou had already changed into a set of snow-white clothes. He sat before the table with an ancient book in his hand, preparing to read.
Time ticked away. Soon, Yuan Zhou raised his head and looked at the clock. It was already time for the pub to close.
"Hua La." Yuan Zhou pushed open the window and saw Mao Ye locking the door.
"Be careful on the road." Yuan Zhou lowered his head and reminded Mao Ye when Mao Ye got up.
"Okay. Thank you, boss." Mao Ye nodded and ran to the bus stop.
At that moment, the last bus to the university was waiting there. She had to run faster to save the bus driver some time.
Yuan Zhou watched as Mao Ye boarded the bus. When the tail lights of the bus disappeared, he retracted his gaze and prepared to close the window.
"Compass, Compass." A loud voice came from the other side. Clearly, Wuhai had seen Yuan Zhou and was greeting him.
"Um. Sleep early." Yuan Zhou nodded and closed the window decisively. He returned to his room.
"The Black Beast shouldn't be thinking about supper anymore." Yuan Zhou heaved a sigh of relief.
But at that moment, his phone suddenly rang. "Ding Ling Ling Ling Ling Ling Ling".
"Don't tell me the Black Beast has arrived just because I said it?" Yuan Zhou was shocked and did not pick up the phone immediately.
After the phone rang a few times, Yuan Zhou picked it up. When he saw that it was not Wuhai on the screen, he felt relieved and picked up the phone.
"Ling Hong, it's so late. What's the matter?" Yuan Zhou asked directly.
That's right. It was Ling Hong calling at such a late hour. It was not Wuhai that Yuan Zhou thought.
"Compass, you should be congratulating me now." Ling Hong's voice was filled with joy as he said proudly.
"Oh? Ok, congratulations. "Yuan Zhou congratulated him straightforwardly and straightforwardly.
"That's too insincere. Aren't you going to ask me what's the matter?" Ling Hong said with dissatisfaction.
"What is it?" Yuan Zhou sat down, closed the ancient book, and asked seriously.
It wasn't that Yuan Zhou had become easier to talk to recently, but because he had seen Ling Hong's recent hardships. As a friend, he was willing to accompany Ling Hong and joke around.
"I did it, my proposal was successful, I'm going to get married soon!" Even through the phone, Yuan Zhou could feel that Ling Hong had added at least three exclamation marks to his words.
"Then I really have to congratulate you. Congratulations on becoming Little Qing's husband right away." It was rare for Yuan Zhou to say such a long sentence, but his tone was very sincere.
"Yes, that's right." Ling Hong nodded heavily.
Yuan Zhou lowered his head and looked at the shelf beside him. It was filled with precious gifts from his customers. Without any hesitation, Yuan Zhou said directly, "I have some time recently. Can I prepare a wedding banquet for you and Little Qing?"
After saying that, Yuan Zhou frowned slightly. He touched his forehead and said again, "That way, I can save on the gift money."
Yuan Zhou felt that he had asked too solemnly, so he hastily made up an excuse.
But Ling Hong cooperated and said, "That won't do. You can save on the cooking, but Little Ya's gift money can't be reduced."
"Hmm … Okay, I'll pay for her," Yuan Zhou said.
"Hahaha, okay. Then I'll wait for you to give me a big red packet." Ling Hong laughed heartily.
"I will." Yuan Zhou nodded seriously.
"Actually, I want to hold a big wedding, but Little Qing said it's not necessary. She doesn't like too many people. She just wants to invite her close friends and relatives," Ling Hong said with a sigh.
"That's good. It's too tiring to have too many people," Yuan Zhou said.
"Yeah, it's too tiring," Ling Hong said.
"When do you plan to get married?" Yuan Zhou didn't talk about tiring anymore. Instead, he asked directly.
"Three days later, you can come directly to the banquet." Ling Hong paused and then said, "But you have to come earlier. You have to sit at the main table. After all, you just promised."
Ling Hong's tone was as if he was taking advantage of him, but Yuan Zhou couldn't laugh.
"Okay, I just checked the calendar. The date three days later is very good. It's a good wedding day. It's an auspicious day," Yuan Zhou said.
"Of course. It's a good day for me. If it weren't for the fact that the day after tomorrow wouldn't be so good, I really want to hold the wedding tomorrow and tell everyone that Little Qing is my wife," Ling Hong said in high spirits.
"Um," Yuan Zhou answered lightly and didn't say anything more.
"Then I will ask someone to send the invitation to you tomorrow. I will also say it in the group chat," Ling Hong said.
"Okay, I will wait for the invitation," Yuan Zhou answered.
"Sleep early," after that, Ling Hong hung up the phone first.
"Du Du Du", the phone was busy for a while and then the screen saver was restored automatically. It was a picture of Yin Ya holding a glass of red wine. Together with the afternoon sunshine, it made Yin Ya look beautiful and warm.
"I hope everything will get better," Yuan Zhou touched Yin Ya's picture gently and sighed.
Actually, Ling Hong's call came very suddenly and very late, but Yuan Zhou didn't ask anything. He just agreed readily and even offered to hold the wedding banquet.
Just because Yuan Zhou wanted to do so.
"Speaking of which, the group chat will probably be lively soon." Yuan Zhou unlocked his phone and began to peek at the screen silently.
Sure enough, as Yuan Zhou said, although it was already late at night, the people in the group chat were still blown up by Ling Hong's red notice.
Although the people in the group didn't know about Ruan Xiaoqing's illness, they were considerate enough not to ask. They just congratulated Ling Hong and looked forward to Yuan Zhou's wedding banquet.
"Little Ya didn't come out. It seems that she is sleeping." After peeking for a while, Yuan Zhou came to this conclusion. Then, he also turned off his phone and prepared to sleep.
In the early morning, Yuan Zhou woke up one minute before the alarm as usual. He turned it off immediately and then got up to wash up.
Now, Yuan Zhou wouldn't go to the toilet with his eyes closed after waking up in the morning. After all, he had been going to bed late and wake up early for a long time and was used to it.
After washing up, Yuan Zhou changed into his sportswear and went downstairs to start his morning jog.
"Good morning, Boss Yuan."
"Good morning, Boss Yuan is handsome again."
"Good morning, Boss Yuan."
"Hehe, Uncle Yuan."
As Yuan Zhou ran past, the neighbors who passed by all greeted Yuan Zhou, and Yuan Zhou also nodded in response.
Then, a familiar person joined Yuan Zhou's morning jog. This person was none other than Xia Yu.
"Good morning, Boss Yuan." Xia Yu smiled and greeted him.
"Um, good morning." After saying that, Yuan Zhou habitually stayed two steps away from Xia Yu.
It couldn't be helped. After all, Xia Yu was taller than Yuan Zhou. As a prince charming, he naturally couldn't let others find out that he was shorter than a girl.
Now, Xia Yu could run the entire distance with Yuan Zhou. She even did more exercise than Yuan Zhou because she could basically be considered to have recovered recently.
Soon, the two ran to the path below the small building where Xia Yu lived.
"Hey, daughter." Xia Yu heard her father's greeting and turned her head to look.
Xia Yu's parents were standing on the path and looking at her and Yuan Zhou.
"Hello, you must be Boss Yuan." Xia Yu's father greeted Yuan Zhou politely and respectfully.
Wasn't it respect? After hearing the name Yuan Zhou, Xia Yu's father seriously inquired about Yuan Zhou and concluded that his daughter's recovery was definitely related to Yuan Zhou.
That was why he was so respectful.
"Yes, nice to meet you." Yuan Zhou slowed down and nodded.
"Boss Yuan is really young and promising. You are a famous person in the American medical field." Xia Yu's father couldn't help but say.
"Thank you for the compliment." Although Yuan Zhou didn't understand that he was a famous person in the American medical field, it didn't stop him from thanking him seriously.
"This is not a compliment. There are a lot of reports about you, Boss Yuan." Xia Yu's mother also nodded.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou thanked them seriously.
"Okay, we won't block here and disturb your running. You guys continue, continue." Xia Yu's father pulled his wife over and made way for them.
"Okay, see you next time." Yuan Zhou nodded and continued running.
Naturally, Xia Yu followed along. However, she was a little embarrassed. After all, her parents had disturbed Yuan Zhou just now.
"Sorry, my parents disturbed you, Boss Yuan." Xia Yu took a deep breath and apologized.
"It's okay. It's not a bother." Yuan Zhou shook his head.
"Thank you," Xia Yu said.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't answer her. He just ran earnestly. Actually, he was thinking about the situation of the American medical field mentioned by Xia Yu's father just now.
"Judging from the look of that person just now, he didn't mistake me for someone else. He's definitely talking about me being famous in the medical field." Yuan Zhou thought about it seriously.
"Could it be that I have conquered the American medical field without my knowledge?" Yuan Zhou couldn't help murmuring to himself.
Suddenly, the system popped up and a line of familiar words appeared, reminding him of its existence.
The system displayed, "This system is the Master Chef System."
"…" Yuan Zhou said, "I know. I am talking about my culinary skills."
"I'll go back and look for it. How can there be a report praising me that I don't know? This is a sign that I don't have a deep understanding of my culinary skills." Yuan Zhou thought of that and then slowly ran back to the back alley, preparing to end today's morning jog.
Although he said he was going to look up the reports about him in the United States, Yuan Zhou became busy as soon as he entered the restaurant. Therefore, he really didn't have time for that.
Because apart from the business, Yuan Zhou also started to make the wedding banquet menu after he received the invitation, which was also a very tedious work.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Soon, it was time for the wedding banquet as agreed by Ling Hong.
Early in the morning, Yuan Zhou set out for the hotel Ling Hong had booked. The hotel was very close to the private hospital where Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya often went to see Ruan Xiaoqing. It was only a ten-minute walk away.
When Yuan Zhou went there, he first went to pick up Yin Ya. At that time, it was just four o 'clock in the morning.
After picking them up, it was naturally Yin Ya who drove Yuan Zhou to the hotel together.
At that time, Ling Hong was already there. He took Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya to the kitchen and then left hurriedly.
Although it was a little rude, Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya didn't mind.
Today's wedding banquet actually only had a total of three tables, and Yuan Zhou only needed to cook one table. However, after hearing that there were only three tables, Yuan Zhou told Ling Hong that he was in charge of this wedding banquet.
Therefore, the dishes on the three tables were all cooked by Yuan Zhou.
As soon as he arrived at the venue, Yuan Zhou directly began to prepare. In addition to the ingredients prepared by the hotel, Yuan Zhou also brought some main ingredients.
Yin Ya was picked up at four o 'clock, and then Yin Ya brought Yuan Zhou to the hotel. Yuan Zhou washed up and then officially began to prepare the ingredients at five o' clock in the morning.
Even for Yuan Zhou, as he was alone and the banquet he prepared this time was a little special, it was already 11: 00 PM when the banquet was ready.
Of course, during this period, Yuan Zhou also made breakfast for himself, Yin Ya, Ling Hong, Ruan Xiaoqing, and Wuhai.
Where there was food, how could there be no Wuhai? Wuhai slept directly in this hotel last night.
The purpose was naturally for Yuan Zhou's breakfast and lunch, as well as to congratulate Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing's marriage.
Making two meals at once with special requirements, Yuan Zhou was naturally very tired. It made Yin Ya, who had been accompanying him, feel a little distressed.
After Yuan Zhou washed his hands, she untied the apron and went forward to hand a hot towel to Yuan Zhou to wipe his face.
"Wipe your face. You will feel better," said Yin Ya.
"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded and then took the towel and wiped his face.
After wiping his face, Yin Ya took the towel, washed it, and put it away. Yuan Zhou then said, "Let's go. Most people should be here by now. I have already arranged for the dishes to be served."
"Okay, I went to see Xiaoqing. She is very good today. She is very beautiful," said Yin Ya.
"That's good." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Don't worry, it will be fine." Yin Ya held Yuan Zhou's hand and said softly.
"Yes, you are right." Yuan Zhou nodded and held Yin Ya's hand tightly.
Just like that, the two of them held hands and went directly to the banquet hall that Ling Hong had booked.
As expected, almost all the people in the banquet hall had arrived.
For example, Old Master Ling and his secretary, Ling Hong's parents, Ruan Xiaoqing's parents and family members, as well as familiar customers in the restaurant, and so on.
There were not many people, and it was easy enough to seat three tables.
When Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya entered the door, Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing, who were dressed in bright red, came to greet them.
"Thank you for your hard work," Ruan Xiaoqing said gently.
"It's not hard work. I am doing this to save money," Yuan Zhou joked with a serious face.
"Yes, we are also taking advantage of the situation. Congratulations," Yin Ya sincerely congratulated them.
"Thank you. Actually, Boss Yuan and Xiaoya don't need to pay money," Ruan Xiaoqing said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes. Everything my wife says is right." Ling Hong laughed and agreed.
At first, Ruan Xiaoqing felt a little embarrassed when she heard Ling Hong address her like that, but after hearing it so many times, she was already immune to it. She just rolled her eyes at Ling Hong and led Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya to find a seat.
Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya naturally sat at the head of the table. The head of the table included Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing's family, as well as Wu Hai and Jiang Changxi.
Apart from Ling Hong's parents and Ruan Xiaoqing's parents who were meeting for the first time, the rest were all acquaintances. Therefore, it wasn't awkward. They all greeted each other smilingly and then Yuan Zhou sat down with Yin Ya.
During this time, Yuan Zhou could clearly see Ling Hong's mother looking at Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing with worry, but Yuan Zhou did not say anything. He just quietly held Yin Ya's hand tightly.
On the other side, outside the banquet hall, a foreigner with a high nose and deep eyes walked in.
Ruan Xiaoqing and Ling Hong immediately went to greet him. Yuan Zhou also knew this person. It was Magnon, who often brought people to eat a while ago.
Every time after a meal, Magnon would give Yuan Zhou a bright smile and sincerely thank Yuan Zhou.
But this time, he brought a gift box and walked into the banquet hall alone.
