After Boss Tong said that, Yuan Zhou didn't say anything for a while.
After a while, Yuan Zhou said, "Then Aunt Tong, you can walk around more and take care of your health."
"I know. I'm in good health. I even went to climb the mountain yesterday." Boss Tong's tone became gentler.
"Um. Go to bed early." Yuan Zhou's tone was filled with concern.
"You, too. Young people shouldn't always stay up late." Boss Tong reminded Yuan Zhou.
"Okay. Got it." Yuan Zhou answered quite earnestly.
"Don't worry about his business. That's all." Boss Tong mentioned the old man who was waiting for her in the end.
"Okay. I'll wait for you to come back." Yuan Zhou gave an affirmative answer, indicating that he got it.
"I'm going to bed now. That's all." After saying that, Boss Tong hung up the phone directly.
"As expected, people of Boss Tong's age have all practiced hanging up the phone." Looking at the phone that was hung up, Yuan Zhou couldn't help murmuring.
Yuan Zhou had a deep understanding of that. For example, his mother hung up the phone so fast that you couldn't even say anything. However, it was impossible to let her hang up the phone like that now.
Having made the phone call and confirmed the matter, Yuan Zhou felt relieved and went back downstairs to continue his work.
The business time of the pub ended and the evening passed quickly. The next day arrived again.
Unfortunately, it rained as soon as it came.
"It seems that I have to take a raincoat to jog." Yuan Zhou frowned and then put on the raincoat.
"It's a pity that passers-by can't see a prince charming passing by." Yuan Zhou sighed and then ran into the rain to exercise.
According to the daily route, Yuan Zhou finished jogging earnestly. After he returned to the restaurant, he washed up and went downstairs to prepare the breakfast.
"Hua La". At the usual time, Yuan Zhou opened the door of the restaurant.
This time, however, it wasn't Wu Hai who came first, but the old man who often came to wait for others. This time, he was the first one in the line.
As soon as he opened the door, the old man stared at Yuan Zhou.
"Morning." Yuan Zhou greeted indifferently on the surface.
"Morning, boss." Zhou Jia and Mu Xiaoyun walked to Yuan Zhou with a smile.
"Okay, go in." Yuan Zhou nodded, then stepped aside and walked straight into the kitchen.
"It's time for breakfast. Please come in." Zhou Jia and Mu Xiaoyun said at the same time.
One's voice was crisp, while the other was soft. They complemented each other and made people feel comfortable listening to them.
"You're finally open for business. You're so late, Little Boss." The old man walked into the restaurant with large strides and sat down directly. He couldn't wait to say that.
"Yes, yes, yes. It's too late. I'm starving to death." The old man's words were echoed by many people.
In fact, the Yuanzhou shop had a fixed opening time every day. However, because the food was delicious and the opening time was short, people felt that the shop opened late.
However, the old man was different from others. He was purely anxious about whether Boss Tong had contacted Yuan Zhou.
It was easy to understand. The old man told Yuan Zhou about it and it seemed that Yuan Zhou had a good relationship with Boss Tong.
Therefore, it was possible that Yuan Zhou asked Yuan Zhou proactively or that Boss Tong called him coincidentally.
After all, the old man had already known that Boss Tong had given the restaurant to Yuan Zhou.
"What would you like to eat, everybody?" Zhou Jia and Mu Xiaoyun started to order dishes for them dutifully.
"Wait a minute. I'm not in a hurry." The old man first refused Zhou Jia politely and then looked at Yuan Zhou and said.
"What did Tong Lan say? Does she know I'm here?" The old man looked at Yuan Zhou seriously and nervously.
"She knows. She won't come back for now." Yuan Zhou nodded the head and then said straightforwardly.
"She won't come back? That's good." Hearing Yuan Zhou say that, the old man was a little lonely, but he still wore a smile on his face.
It seemed that he would also become happy after knowing Boss Tong's information.
Then, the old man started to pester Yuan Zhou and ask him many questions. Of course, they were all about Boss Tong.
In no more than five minutes, the old man asked at least ten questions in one breath. However, Yuan Zhou didn't answer him.
"The boss doesn't like to talk when he's preparing the dishes." Mu Xiaoyun went up and stopped the old man who still wanted to ask more questions.
"The little boss really has a lot of rules." Being stopped, the old man was a little embarrassed for an instant, but he said that soon.
"Yes. All the rules are written on the wall over there. You can have a look." Mu Xiaoyun pointed at the wall behind her.
"Ok. Get me a serving of breakfast, too." The old man didn't turn his head and just sat upright. It seemed that he had good self-restraint.
"Ok. Today, we provide the Osmanthus Wine Ball Ball." Mu Xiaoyun started to introduce the dishes and the price.
When he heard the price, the old man raised his eyebrows. Without saying anything, he paid the money straightforwardly.
It took less than five minutes for the dishes to be carried to the table. However, this time, it was Yuan Zhou himself who carried the dishes to him.
"Osmanthus Wine Ball Ball Ball. Please enjoy." Yuan Zhou set down the dishes.
"How is it?" The old man raised his head and looked straight at Yuan Zhou, expecting him to answer those questions.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't refuse him. He simply told the old man everything he knew.
The conversation between the two people naturally attracted the attention of other customers at the side, such as Ling Hong, who was more curious than a cat.
"You're talking about Boss Tong, the owner of the neighboring dry cleaning shop." Ling Hong continued the topic quite cleverly. Just when Yuan Zhou finished talking and left.
Besides, Ling Hong's tone was quite clear. Therefore, the old man immediately answered him.
"You also know Tong Lan, the original owner of the dry cleaning shop? Young man, what do you know? "The old man asked a little urgently.
"Of course I know." Ling Hong nodded the head deservedly.
"Then tell me about it. I'll treat you to a meal." The old man said generously.
"You don't have to treat me. We are all neighbors." Ling Hong said with a smile on his face.
Just when Yuan Zhou was wondering when Ling Hong became so loyal and enthusiastic, he heard the next sentence,
"But I think I have to know what it is before I tell you."
The old man knitted his brows and seemed to be reluctant to tell him.
"After all, I got to know Boss Tong first and then you." Ling Hong appeared to be enthusiastic and considerate of Boss Tong.
"Okay. I'll tell you." The old man nodded the head and agreed.
There were two kinds of people. One kind liked to hide their secrets and didn't tell anyone. The other kind would tell others as long as they showed a little concern for them.
It wasn't because they trusted others too easily. It was just because they were too lonely.
The old man belonged to the latter. After keeping silent for a while, he told the story of him and Boss Tong again.
After Ling Hong heard that, he asked straightforwardly, "Then, old sir, can you tell me why you let the one who loves you wait for you for more than 30 years?"
"Boss Tong hasn't left. Even if she left, I'm really curious about the reason since communication is so advanced nowadays." Ling Hong said, "Please tell me."
