Since he had made an appointment with the naughty kid to go to the dessert shop the next day, Yuan Zhou didn't bother about the dessert shop anymore. Instead, he continued to study his culinary skills.
Time passed quickly. As the next day was Saturday, the naughty kid came to Taoxi Road early in the morning to wait.
At that time, the breakfast time of the Yuanzhou shop hadn't ended yet. The naughty kid was reading a tall book with a black cover outside.
The naughty kid was reading very seriously. He would stop to think about it from time to time. That was what Yuan Zhou saw when he washed up and went out after the breakfast time.
"Good morning." Yuan Zhou greeted him first.
"Good morning, Uncle Yuan." Hearing the greeting, the naughty kid immediately closed the book and stood up to answer.
Because of his height, Yuan Zhou saw the title of the book at first glance.
The book was black in color and the cover was made of textured leather. The vertical title was written in a very beautiful and elegant font. The title of the book was How to Win the Favor of a Rich Woman.
“???”
Looking at the title, Yuan Zhou was stupefied for a while and then said, "You have a unique taste."
Yuan Zhou had never treated the naughty kid as an ordinary kid. Their conversation was always on an equal footing. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't feel that the naughty kid was very surprised when he read the book. However, wasn't it too early for him to be surprised?
"Uncle Yuan, are you talking about this?" The naughty kid raised the book in his hand and waved it.
"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"I just bought it not long ago. I've only read 1/3 of the book. I found some parts are wrong. For example, the part about rich women being different from ordinary girls. I don't agree with it." The naughty kid started talking non-stop.
"Actually, the definition and types of rich women aren't very clear. For example, girls like Sister Jiang won't be moved by the tricks in this book. Besides, not only the types of rich women, but also their experiences and personalities are also very important. Because some of the contents aren't clear enough and the descriptions are vague, it's not very meaningful to refer to the specific implementation. Especially since this book is priced at 31 RMB, the price-performance ratio is too low." The naughty kid concluded.
"That makes sense." After listening for a while, Yuan Zhou had the urge to suggest that the naughty kid write his own book, but in the end, he calmed himself down and didn't show it.
At this time, the two had already reached the junction of Taoxi Road. Yuan Zhou waited for the naughty kid to start another topic before he got on the taxi.
Yuan Zhou was a little embarrassed to ask a boy who didn't look like an adult to please a rich woman.
Even if he was just listening, he still felt a little weird. After all, Yuan Zhou felt that he himself was rich and thus didn't need to know about this.
Yes, that was it.
After reporting the address, the naughty child quickly ended the conversation and said, "Uncle Yuan, you can rest for a while. I'll read some more."
Although the naughty kid was called a naughty kid, his naughtiness was different from others. For example, he had always been very considerate. He knew that Yuan Zhou had been busy the whole morning and must be very tired, so he took the initiative to say that.
"Okay, thank you." Yuan Zhou didn't stand on ceremony. He closed his eyes and prepared to rest for a while.
The popular ice-cream shop mentioned by the naughty kid was quite far away. It took him half an hour to drive, which was just enough for Yuan Zhou to rest.
He closed his eyes and opened them again, and the car arrived at the destination.
After Yuan Zhou paid the fare, he followed the naughty kid to the door of the ice-cream shop.
Although it was 9: 00 in the morning, there was already a long line in front of the ice-cream shop mentioned by the naughty kid. Luckily, it wasn't as grand as the Yuanzhou shop.
However, there were already more than ten people in the line.
Yuan Zhou went there with the naughty kid and stood at the end of the line.
The shop was actually quite conspicuous on this street, because the entrance of the shop was directly in the shape of an igloo. Snowflakes drifted out from the machine on the snow-white dome from time to time, falling down at the entrance.
Together with the surrounding trees, it looked quite beautiful from afar. That attracted many girls who liked taking pictures to stop and take pictures at the side.
However, once these people got close to the entrance, they would be stopped by the staff at the door.
"The decoration is very creative," Yuan Zhou said.
"Yes. I heard that it was first popular because you can see snow here even in summer." The naughty kid had obviously seen many videos about the shop, so he nodded and said.
"It's not easy to see snow in Chengdu." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"That's why it became popular." The naughty kid nodded and said.
"And I heard that the decoration inside is also very interesting. The boss spent a lot of money on it. Uncle Yuan, you'll know when you go in," the naughty kid continued.
"Okay, it's our turn soon," Yuan Zhou nodded and replied.
That was the truth. The ice-cream shop was actually quite big. Although there were more than ten people in front of Yuan Zhou, it was their turn to enter the shop after ten minutes.
However, when it was Yuan Zhou and the naughty kid's turn to enter the shop, the boss who was at the bar counter walked over. He sized up the naughty kid and said, "May I ask if both of you are coming in?"
The question was strange, but Yuan Zhou didn't think much of it. He nodded and said, "Yes."
"Okay. The rules of this shop are that children are not allowed to run around or make a lot of noise in the shop. Also, the ice cream mountain over there is not allowed to move or taste on your own. If you want to taste it, you can only get it from the staff. Of course, adults have to follow these rules too," the boss pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and said.
This was the first time the naughty kid saw someone talking about the rules to Yuan Zhou. Moreover, the naughty kid looked up curiously at Yuan Zhou's expression.
However, Yuan Zhou's expression was very calm. Or rather, it was the same as before. When he answered, he was very serious and certain.
"Okay. Sorry to trouble you, boss," Yuan Zhou said.
"It's no trouble at all. Please take good care of your child and don't cause trouble for others." The boss nodded and returned to the bar counter.
Only then did Yuan Zhou bring the naughty kid into the shop.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Yuan Zhou felt the temperature inside instantly dropped a lot. It was late autumn in Chengdu now. Wearing a long gown and a coat, one wouldn't feel cold. Even a little exercise would cause one to sweat a little. However, the temperature in the restaurant was obviously only a few degrees Celsius. It felt like the season had changed.
Yuan Zhou raised his brows slightly. He seemed to understand the naughty kid's words. He was impressed by the naughty kid's way of thinking.
After being led to a seat by the staff, Yuan Zhou ordered the shop's signature ice cream. The naughty kid also ordered the signature ice cream.
Just as the naughty kid said, the food in an internet celebrity shop was expensive. It was about 50% more expensive than outside.
After the staff left, the naughty kid said, "I didn't expect that there would be people in the F&B business in Chengdu who don't know you, Uncle Yuan."
The naughty kid sounded surprised, but Yuan Zhou replied calmly, "There should be a lot of people who don't know me. I'm not RMB."
"No, no, no. Uncle Yuan, you don't understand your influence at all. If it was in other industries, it wouldn't be a problem if they didn't know you. However, in the F&B industry in Chengdu, you are definitely a rare sight." The naughty kid shook his head and said seriously, "If you had revealed your identity just now, we wouldn't even need to queue up, let alone be stopped by the boss and talk about the rules. We would be able to enter the shop directly."
The naughty kid's meaning was clear. With Yuan Zhou's current fame and status, this little bit of preferential treatment was natural. It was nothing.
To be more precise, it wasn't preferential treatment. Having a famous person eat in the shop was also a form of affirmation of popularity.
Disregarding everything else, just Kang Hu, who Yuan Zhou looked forward to the most, was one of Yuan Zhou's expectations. It could be said that he had reached the peak of his life.
"We have to follow the rules of other people's shops," Yuan Zhou replied.
"Huh?" The naughty kid didn't quite understand.
Yuan Zhou explained, "I hope that others will respect the rules of my shop. Similarly, I will respect the rules of other people's shops. No matter when, respect is mutual." He looked very serious when he said that.
However, before the naughty kid could ask or answer, Yuan Zhou's expression softened and said, "So, you can't run around later."
It was obvious that he was mocking him. The naughty kid had always been a person who knew his limits.
