"Who's Shameless Wu?" Zhou Xi's focus was different from others.
"Look, he's over there," Zhou Shijie pointed at Wuhai and said angrily.
Zhou Xi saw an ordinary-looking man with a small mustache over there. His hands moved extremely fast.
"He's even faster than me!" Zhou Xi's hands moved even faster after he said that.
As he moved faster, Zhou Shijie didn't even have a place to pick up the food. His chopsticks were everywhere on the plate.
"I told you to slow down. Why are you eating so fast?" Zhou Shijie stared at Zhou Xi and said.
"Dad, it's not that bad. I learned this speed when I was studying." Zhou Xi's mouth was full of food and meat, but he could speak clearly.
"You haven't eaten for days. Slow down." Zhou Shijie wanted to slap Zhou Xi to death when he saw him like that.
After all, Zhou Xi looked like Zhou Shijie was abusing him. He didn't care about his image at all.
"Gulp." Zhou Xi swallowed the last mouthful of meat and then his mouth was free.
"No, dad. I'm not full yet. Can I order another serving?" Zhou Xi's first sentence was this.
"Which brat said that we can eat casually?" Zhou Shijie wasn't surprised by Zhou Xi's reaction, but he still joked.
"Cough. I said that. But what I'm saying is that I'm not full yet. You're my dad. You can't starve me if you treat me to a meal, right?" Zhou Xi inherited his shamelessness from Zhou Shijie. He didn't feel any psychological burden when he said that.
"You brat." Zhou Shijie stopped while he was ahead and didn't say anything more.
"Dad, you're treating today, right? I'll order two more dishes," Zhou Xi scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Go ahead. It's rare for you to come back. Eat more." Zhou Shijie nodded.
"Please order the dishes," Zhou Xi immediately picked up the menu and said to Zhou Jia.
"Be careful. You must finish the dishes you order. Otherwise, there won't be a next time. This is the rule here," Zhou Shijie reminded.
"Okay, I know, dad." Zhou Xi nodded.
"Hello, what would you like to order?" Zhou Jia was used to ordering after eating. After all, it was a tradition for new customers.
That's right. Because the dishes in Yuan Zhou's restaurant were not cheap, first-time diners would choose to order one to taste the freshness first. After eating, 98% of them would order another one.
The new customers would not give up until their wallets bled and they had to support the wall.
Especially when it was a combination of old diners and new diners, most of them would choose to order more.
"Phoenix-Tail Prawns, White Oil Tofu, Sautéed Vermicelli with Spicy Minced Pork and Smoked Fish Silver Thread Noodles. He's paying," said Zhou Shijie while pointing at his father.
"Yeah, I'll pay for him and add a Clear Broth Noodle Soup Set." Zhou Shijie looked at Zhou Xi speechlessly and then took out his phone to pay for the meal.
"Okay. Please wait for a moment. The dishes will be served in a while." After confirming that the money had been paid, Zhou Jia nodded and left.
"These dishes are enough for me. Besides, I ordered the noodles," said Zhou Xi.
"Get lost. I ordered it for myself. All the dishes on the table went into your stomach just now. I only ate a bowl of plain white rice," said Zhou Shijie as he pointed at the clean and shiny plate on the table.
"Ahem, I'm just being thrifty," Zhou Xi coughed while covering his mouth with his hand.
Zhou Shijie rolled his eyes at Zhou Xi and didn't want to say anything more.
Zhou Xi didn't feel anything. After all, he was his father. Sometimes, it was not bad to be shameless and get some benefits.
"No wonder even Senior Brother Yu Chu can become a gourmet. How can there be such delicious dishes? This is simply inhumane." Zhou Xi smacked his lips and recalled the taste of the dishes just now. He sighed inwardly.
Yu Chu, who was mentioned by Zhou Xi, was happily discussing the dishes of the All-Fish Banquet with his fellow foodies. The atmosphere between the two was very lively.
Looking at the scene, Zhou Xi said, "It's really unbelievable and reasonable. It's indeed too delicious."
Zhou Xi couldn't think of anything else. He couldn't think of his original understanding of food. Now, all he could think about was the new dishes that would be served later.
"I wonder what the taste is," muttered Zhou Xi.
"It's definitely the taste of something delicious," said Zhou Shijie.
Zhou Xi nodded subconsciously. Then, he looked at Yuan Zhou who was cooking in the kitchen seriously.
"This brat finally didn't bring him here for nothing," Zhou Shijie felt very gratified when he saw Zhou Xi's reaction. The expression on his face relaxed a little.
The two hours of business time at noon passed very quickly. Before leaving with Zhou Xi, Zhou Shijie specially greeted Yuan Zhou.
"See you in the evening, boss," Zhou Jia, who was the last to leave, said to Yuan Zhou after she tidied up.
"Um," Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Actually, Boss, you are already very awesome," said Zhou Jia abruptly as she walked to the door.
Yuan Zhou looked at Zhou Jia with a puzzled expression. He didn't understand what she said at all. Although he knew he was awesome, such an inexplicable compliment was very strange.
"Boss, you don't seem to be very happy recently. Actually, those comments on the review website are definitely done by other shops with malicious intent. Don't mind them, Boss. Boss, you are already very awesome," said Zhou Jia earnestly as she stood still.
Yuan Zhou was dumbfounded. What were the comments on the review website? What were those malicious comments?
That's right. Yuan Zhou hadn't gone online for several days. He was waiting for the news about the boxer Song An's family. He really didn't understand what Zhou Jia was talking about.
As for Zhou Jia, she was talking about a wave of malicious comments about Yuanzhou Shop that had suddenly appeared on the review website. All kinds of unsightly comments made people very angry.
Of course, Yu Chu, Jiang Changxi, and Ling Hong had already started to clean up and investigate the reason. Zhou Jia thought that Yuan Zhou was in a bad mood because of this.
Although Yuan Zhou wasn't a person with many expressions, after working in the shop for a long time, Zhou Jia could feel Yuan Zhou's mood better than anyone else. That was why she was comforting him.
"Don't worry, Boss. The malicious comments are because our shop is too popular," said Zhou Jia with certainty.
"Um, it's fine." Although Yuan Zhou didn't know about the comments, he still answered seriously when he saw Zhou Jia's worried expression.
Zhou Jia looked at Yuan Zhou carefully before nodding and leaving.
"Malicious comments? Forget it. I'll check next time. "Yuan Zhou watched as Zhou Jia left the shop. He took out his phone and put it down again.
Other than improving his culinary skills and opening the shop, Yuan Zhou was in a bad mood because he still hadn't found Song An's family.
However, just as he put down his phone, it suddenly rang.
"Hello," Yuan Zhou answered the phone almost immediately when he saw the number on the screen.
"Hello, Mr. Yuan. The investigation you commissioned has come to a conclusion." A man's voice passed from the other end of the phone and said calmly.
"Mhm. Are you giving it to me in the form of a document?" asked Yuan Zhou.
"Actually, there's no need for that. We didn't find Song An's family," said the male voice.
"Alright, I understand. I'll transfer the rest of the payment to you later," said Yuan Zhou after a pause.
"Thank you, Mister Yuan. I hope we can continue working together in the future. The detailed investigation information will be sent to you later," said the male voice.
"Mhm." Yuan Zhou nodded and hung up.
