"Thank you." The man in a suit said courteously.
"Who praised you?" Ling Hong knitted his brows.
Zhou Jia couldn't help laughing at the side. Due to her professionalism, however, she restrained herself. She turned around and reported the dishes solemnly.
Nevertheless, the man in a suit didn't seem to mind that at all.
"I was wondering why you don't leave every day." Ling Hong pointed at the man in a suit and asked immodestly.
"This gentleman who never eats discounted food. It seems to have nothing to do with you." The smile on the face of the man in a suit turned into a fake smile, but he still looked quite mild.
"Yes. It has nothing to do with me. So my questions are also none of your business. You only need to answer." Ling Hong said naturally.
If someone else had said this, Zhou Jia, who was at the side, would have ridiculed him for being shameless. However, the person who said this was Ling Hong, so it was different. It sounded natural. However, the man in the suit didn't think so.
"Ho Ho." The man in a suit just smiled and didn't answer him.
"What are you laughing at? Tell me the reason." Ling Hong looked at the man in a suit and said.
"I'm sorry. I didn't prepare to tell you." The man in a suit said decisively.
"Interesting. I must know the reason today." Ling Hong looked at the man in a suit with great interest.
"Mr. Ling, here are your dishes." Zhou Jia carried the dishes to him.
"Um." Ling Hong nodded the head. Just when he wanted to ask again, Zhou Jia carried the dishes to the man in a suit again.
This time, the man in a suit said preemptively, "I'm going to eat first."
Then, the man in a suit made Ling Hong speechless. After all, the man came here to eat, not to listen to his questions.
Luckily, Ling Hong thought the man wouldn't leave after eating. Thus, he felt relieved and began to savor his delicacies carefully.
In just a little while, the restaurant quieted down and everyone was eating the dishes in front of them.
Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Yuan Zhou temporarily suppressed his curiosity and started to prepare the dishes for the customers.
However, the silence didn't last long because Ling Hong had finished his meal.
"Alright, you can call the next one." Ling Hong elegantly wiped his mouth clean, stood up, and said to Zhou Jia.
"Okay. Thank you, Mr. Ling." Zhou Jia said with a smile.
"Mm." Ling Hong nodded.
Then, Zhou Jia went to call the next customer in for dinner.
However, after eating, Ling Hong was free and began to satisfy his curiosity.
"Come on, let's have a chat," Ling Hong said to the man in a suit who was eating.
"No need. I don't want to chat." The man in the suit refused flatly.
"Then you answer me." Ling Hong said naturally.
The man in the suit didn't reply. He just sat there quietly. He was still the same as before. He didn't give up his seat and just sat there eating.
"You should eat faster. There are so many people behind you." Ling Hong didn't mind and just said that at the side.
"You eat so slowly. Do you want to stay here?" Looking at the manner of the man in the suit eating, Ling Hong became anxious.
A man surprisingly ate like that one mouthful of dishes and one mouthful of rice after another. Not to mention that he ate extremely slowly, he also liked to look around and only lowered his head to eat after he looked at others.
"I can see that you are dressed well. I guess you don't lack the money to eat. Why do you want to stay here?" Ling Hong stroked his chin and revealed a curious expression.
"Must you know?" The man in the suit was probably annoyed. Finally, he turned his head and said to Ling Hong.
"Of course." Ling Hong nodded his head.
"Actually, I feel the taste of the dishes here is ordinary." As soon as the man opened his mouth, he said something astonishing.
Even Yuan Zhou opened his eyes wide in surprise and looked at the man in the suit without a trace.
"I'm serious. It's indeed ordinary." Seeing Ling Hong's expression of disbelief, the man in the suit said affirmatively.
"Ho Ho. Then you can find a restaurant that is more delicious than this one or as delicious as this one. Of course, it's best if it doesn't have so many rules." Ling Hong said with a playful tone.
"I don't think so. If there is, I will go there myself." The man in the suit said sincerely.
"I didn't expect that to be your reason. You feel the dishes are ordinary, so you just stay here for an afternoon every time you come? "Ling Hong said with a sneer.
"Yes. Because of the painting and the person." The man in the suit pointed at the painting of People Passing by a Small Restaurant of Wuhai and said earnestly.
"Really?" Ling Hong was dubious and didn't quite understand.
"Maybe one day you won't come and I won't come, either." The man in the suit said smilingly.
"That's really an honor." Ling Hong laughed.
Then, he didn't say anything. In his opinion, the dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou were rare delicacies. Surprisingly, this man felt they were ordinary. Obviously, he was showing off. What a joke! How dare he show off in front of Ling Hong?
"Tell me where the dishes are usually served." After a while, Ling Hong asked that.
"Usually, I can't taste the taste." The man in the suit pointed at his own mouth and said mildly.
"I think you can taste the taste after you eat salt." Ling Hong said straightforwardly.
"That's true." The man in the suit nodded the head.
"Forget it. I don't want to talk with you." Ling Hong suddenly didn't want to know the real reason. He turned around and prepared to leave.
At that time, the man in the suit paused for a while and then said, "Because I can't taste the taste. I don't have a sense of taste."
Ling Hong paused for a while and then left.
"So that's the reason." After he walked out of the restaurant, Ling Hong turned his head and looked at the man in the suit.
He was still eating the dishes there while raising his head to look at what was happening in the restaurant. From his angle, he could just see the appearance of the entire restaurant.
Now, Ling Hong understood the meaning of the man in the suit. Since he couldn't taste the taste, he naturally couldn't distinguish the good from the bad. What he came here to eat was just the joys and sorrows of the restaurant itself. Naturally, he was unwilling to give up his seat.
He also understood that if they didn't come, he wouldn't come either.
The man who stayed here liked the scene of Wuhai arguing with Boss Yuan every day and the scene of Jiang Changxi flirting with him.
He also remembered the heart-warming sign erected by Yuan Zhou at the door, Ma Zhida who always arrived whenever there was a new dish and Lee Yanyi who complained while eating.
Although he didn't know their names, he could recognize their appearances. However, these things were really interesting. For example, Ling Hong who argued with Wuhai. He only knew that Ling Hong didn't eat discounted food.
Although he couldn't taste the taste, the atmosphere of eating was very important.
"Haw-haw. Interesting." After thinking of that, Ling Hong shook his head smilingly and then left with big strides.
Yuan Zhou also heard all those words. He set down the dishes and walked to the man in the suit at the same time.
"Do you need to add some flavor to it?" Yuan Zhou asked lightly.
"No need. The accompanying dishes already have other flavors." The man in the suit refused mildly.
"Okay. Please take your time and enjoy." Yuan Zhou nodded the head and then left.
It was noon at Yuan Zhou's side, but it was exactly 10: 30 in Los Angeles in the United States, which was separated by the ocean.
"Hey, Jack. How was your trip to China?" Jack's friend asked curiously.
"Don't mention it. It was terrible." Jack said with a wretched expression.
Jack didn't have the mood to mention it, but he wasn't the only one who had found the address. Therefore, the matter that Yuanzhou shop only accepted US dollars from foreigners finally broke out on the forum.
Then, the matter was blown up.
A group of people quarreled in the forum. Many of them even wanted to complain, but there were also people who supported it, including many Americans.
Democracy, equality and freedom were their slogans. Naturally, it was also a choice of people to accept whatever currency they wanted. After all, Yuanzhou shop wasn't opened in the United States. If it was in the United States, wouldn't it be normal to accept US dollars only?
Therefore, some people prepared to give it a try to satisfy their curiosity when they had a chance.
However, the number of people boycotting also increased. They even formed a boycott alliance.
People from quite a few countries joined them. Then, Yuanzhou shop became famous abroad. However, it wasn't a good reputation, but a bad reputation of profiteering.
Yuan Zhou knew nothing about those troubles. Just when he was feeling happy, the system released another mission, a side mission.
