Yuan Zhou felt much more relaxed after he finished his task. He even stood up and stretched himself.
Ever since Yuan Zhou couldn't turn back from pretending to be a prince charming, he rarely did such actions that could easily affect his facial paralysis.
"Today, I'm going to sculpt the twelve zodiac animals to practice my skills and relax my brain." Yuan Zhou went downstairs in satisfaction and started to sculpt.
Of course, it had been more than two hours since lunchtime. It was impossible to sculpt the twelve zodiac animals before dinner. However, Yuan Zhou planned to sculpt three zodiac animals first and continue at night.
While Yuan Zhou was preparing to sculpt in high spirits, time rewound to the time when Zhou Shijie walked out of the restaurant with Zhou Xi.
As soon as they walked out of the restaurant, Zhou Shijie led Zhou Xi to the intersection.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Shijie asked.
"Home," Zhou Xi said.
"Then take my car. I'll send you back," Zhou Shijie said faintly.
"You're not going to the association?" Zhou Xi asked.
"Yes." Zhou Shijie nodded as a matter of course.
"Will it affect your work, dad?" Zhou Xi frowned and asked.
"It won't delay anything if I give it to you," Zhou Shijie said indifferently.
Zhou Xi shrugged and looked at Zhou Shijie before nodding.
The association and his family weren't on the same line. However, Zhou Shijie didn't refuse to take him back.
Usually, Zhou Xi would rather take a taxi than sit in the same car as his father because he was afraid of being nagged by him.
However, it was different today. Zhou Xi had something to say.
Zhou Xi and Zhou Shijie sat in the back seat of the car. Zhou Xi only spoke after the car started moving.
"Dad, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow. I won't pick a place. Let's eat here. We've eaten here today and we're familiar with each other. It won't be troublesome," Zhou Xi said naturally.
Zhou Shijie didn't seem to care and spoke casually. But who was Zhou Shijie? He was Zhou Shijie's father. Seeing Zhou Shijie's pretentious look, Zhou Shijie instantly understood that his silly son wanted to have another meal and was using him as an excuse.
Zhou Shijie didn't expose him. Instead, he looked at Zhou Xi mockingly and said.
"Tomorrow is the last day of Ming Yi's art exhibition. If you treat me to a meal, I'm afraid you won't be able to see the art exhibition." Zhou Shijie said, "For the sake of food, you're willing to give up your mental food?"
"I've checked the schedule. Mr. Mingyi's art exhibition will be held in Sanya in half a month. The sky there is blue and the sea is clear. It's more suitable for appreciating Mr. Mingyi's paintings. Zhou Xi said unhurriedly, "This is to choose a better dining environment for spiritual food."
"I can spend the remaining time with you, Dad," said Zhou Xi.
"Hehe." Zhou Shijie laughed mysteriously.
"Dad, you're treating me today. As your son, I'll treat you tomorrow. Order whatever you want," Zhou Xi didn't feel embarrassed and said generously.
"Okay. I'll wait for you to pay tomorrow." Zhou Shijie stopped while he was ahead.
"Don't worry, Dad. Accompanying you to a meal is what a son should do," said Zhou Xi.
"Zhou Xi, you're even more shameless than Little Brat Yuan. You're just a step away from being shameless," said Zhou Shijie speechlessly. He was so angry that he laughed.
"Ahem." Zhou Xi coughed and didn't say anything.
Zhou Shijie also didn't say anything. The atmosphere in the car was quiet and peaceful. It was rare that the father and son didn't quarrel with each other.
Time passed quickly. Yuan Zhou had only sculpted four of the twelve zodiac animals when it was time to prepare the food ingredients.
Yuan Zhou didn't dawdle. After he finished packing, he returned to the restaurant and started to prepare.
After all, the side street was already bustling with people. The vendors also started to sell their goods around the Yuanzhou Shop.
Even the granny selling Mantou and soybean milk was among them.
That's right. Ever since Yuan Zhou gave the silk banner to the granny, she came here every morning and night. Even if she didn't sell much in the evening, she would still come here.
Twenty minutes before dinner time, Zhou Jia and Engineer Cheng arrived together. As usual, they entered the restaurant and started to clean up.
Even though the restaurant was very clean, they still cleaned it separately.
During this period, Yuan Zhou didn't even bother to say anything.
When Engineer Cheng did this for the first time, Yuan Zhou tried to stop him. However, Engineer Cheng was exceptionally persistent and reasonable. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't stop him anymore.
After all, Engineer Cheng said that he was learning from Yuan Zhou. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't say anything more.
Even Zhou Jia didn't dare to say anything after hearing Engineer Cheng's reason. If she said that she didn't allow him to be Engineer Cheng, she would say that Zhou Jia didn't give him a chance to learn.
Therefore, now Engineer Cheng was good at cleaning tables and chairs, which was also a great improvement.
The restaurant was the same in the evening as in the afternoon. As time went by, there were more and more diners. Wuhai was still the first in the line, and he was still the first to enter the restaurant for dinner. Everyone was used to it.
More than half of dinner time had passed. Almost all the foodies in the restaurant had finished eating and left. At this time, a girl came in.
She was wearing clean white sneakers and was dressed for sports. Her hair was combed up and tied into a high ponytail. She looked young and energetic.
She sat at the corner of the long curved table and ordered a serving of Clear Broth Noodle Soup. Then, she ate it earnestly alone.
She ate until the evening. When the business time for dinner was over.
When Yuan Zhou said that she was welcome to come again tomorrow, the girl still hadn't left. Then, Zhou Jia walked up to her and said to her.
"Miss, our business time for dinner is over." Zhou Jia said mildly.
"Um. Okay. I'm waiting for someone. I'll leave in a while." The girl said earnestly with a clear voice.
"Alright." Zhou Jia took away the bowl and chopsticks handed to her by the girl and nodded her head without saying anything more.
Because the customers in the restaurant had always been self-conscious, they usually left quietly after saying that.
After a little while, when Shin Min and Zhou Jia finished the handover and Shin Min also went upstairs to do the cleaning, there were only Yuan Zhou and the girl left in the restaurant.
For a while, the restaurant quieted down from the bustling dinner. Only the sound of Yuan Zhou tidying up the kitchen could be heard.
"Zi", the sound of the chair touching the ground was heard. It was the girl who stood up.
"Dadada Ta", the light footsteps came to Yuan Zhou.
Yuan Zhou raised his head subconsciously. The girl stood in the middle of the long curved table and happened to face him. She looked at Yuan Zhou with her black eyes.
"What's the matter?" Yuan Zhou asked with a flat tone.
"Um." The girl nodded her head.
"Say it." Yuan Zhou said.
"I'm leaving. I won't come to your restaurant anymore." The girl said earnestly.
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said nothing more.
After all, some customers would come to bid farewell to Yuan Zhou when they were going to leave the city and wouldn't come back for a short time. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't feel it strange at all.
"Aren't you going to ask me why?" The girl looked at Yuan Zhou curiously.
"Why?" Yuan Zhou asked readily.
"Sigh. Because I can't get you. I'm sad. So I won't come again." The girl sighed intentionally and then said.
