Zizi ~
The stainless steel fried basket was immersed in the yellow hot oil, and the frozen French fries in the basket immediately reacted wonderfully with the 170-degree palm olive oil, making a pleasant sound.
After 1 minute and 30 seconds, Lu Chen lifted the fried basket out of the oil, shook it left and right about 5 times, and then put it into the oil pan again, so that it was finished in 2 minutes.
In this process, the golden French fries completed a reborn change with the help of the boiling oil, and the air was filled with a strong fragrance, just waiting for the oil to be cleaned and loaded into the material box.
Lu Chen has done the same job countless times in this KFC fast-food restaurant, even with his eyes closed, he will not make a mistake, and the time control is just right.
"Xiao Lu, are the French fries ready?"
A voice of inquiry came from outside, and Lu Chen replied without turning his head, "It'll be ready soon!"
Today is the weekend and it is dinner time, so business in the restaurant is particularly good. There is a long line in front of the three checkout counters, and the food is almost out of service.
Although very tired, Lu Chen still insists on doing his best work.
Although this job does not have much future prospects, it can help Lu Chen survive in Beijing, a super metropolis with a population of 30 million. After deducting the necessary monthly expenses, he can save some money to send home.
Thinking of the heavy debt at home, Lu Chen let out a silent sigh in his heart, but his actions did not slow down in the slightest. He quickly packed the fries ordered by the customers and sent them to the counter.
He was busy until after nine o 'clock, and business finally quieted down, leaving only a few customers in the restaurant to kill time or rest.
Lu Chen was mopping the floor with a mop. Just now, a child accidentally spilled a drink on the ground, and Sister Wang, who was in charge of cleaning, went to the bathroom, so he took the initiative to do it.
Squeak ~
The glass door was pushed open from the outside, and three men came in one after another.
Lu Chen straightened up and smiled: "Welcome to KFC …"
The next moment, his voice froze.
Lu Chen felt that the three people who had just entered were extremely familiar, as if they were the closest people to him. However, he just couldn't remember their names, so he was momentarily stunned.
One of the men, who was wearing jeans and a T-shirt and had long hair hanging down to his shoulders, smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "What's up? You don't even recognize us? We are your creditors! "
Creditors?
Lu Chen's brain was a mess. He didn't remember owing the man money, but it wasn't right to say that he didn't know him.
"Lu Chen …"
Another bespectacled, elegant middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't bother with him. He just doesn't know how to behave properly. We are very hungry. Hurry up and give us something to eat!"
Lu Chen nodded blankly. "Okay, okay. What do you want to eat?"
He had forgotten that in KFC, customers would go to the cashier to order and pay, which was different from ordinary restaurants.
The three of them sat down at a nearby table. The long-haired man shouted, "Give me a family bucket and a whole cow deluxe set meal. Add three more fries and add more ice cubes to the cola!"
Lu Chen noted it down and ran to the cashier in a daze to order. He even took out his own money to pay for the food.
After a while, he sent the food over. The other party didn't stand on ceremony and chatted happily as they ate.
The three of them were obviously very good friends. They chatted about a wide range of topics, including music, literature, and movies. Moreover, their conversations were quite interesting. Lu Chen, who was mopping the floor, listened attentively.
The long-haired man talked the most. When he was talking about something, he even danced with joy. He was in high spirits and was unrestrained.
The bespectacled man was cultured and refined. He could always keep up with the other party's topic, like a supporting character in a crosstalk.
The other thin and tall man was much quieter. He was a man of few words, but he would always hit the nail on the head.
He had a pair of dark eyes that were unfathomable.
Lu Chen kept feeling that something was wrong. However, he was attracted by the topic of the three of them. His thoughts wandered and he didn't notice the passage of time until the sound of the closing bell rang.
At that moment, there were only three customers left in the shop. Lu Chen came to his senses and walked over to say, "Sir, we are closing …"
The bespectacled man looked around at his companions and sighed. "Yes, it's time to go."
He stood up and extended his hand toward Lu Chen. "Thank you for your hospitality. My name is Fang Mingyi."
Lu Chen subconsciously shook hands with him. "Hello, my name is Lu Chen."
The long-haired man stood up and extended his hand toward Lu Chen. "I am Xu Bo. Now that we are even, you don't owe us anything anymore. Are you happy?"
Lu Chen was speechless.
The thin and tall man didn't shake hands with Lu Chen. He just took a deep look at Lu Chen and nodded.
"His name is Mo Ran, an enigma …"
Xu Bo patted Lu Chen's shoulder again and said, "We are leaving. We are going to Diannan to climb the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain."
After that, the three of them left together.
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. He immediately rushed out and shouted, "Don't go!"
However, on the empty street, they couldn't be seen at all!
"Lu Chen …"
Just as Lu Chen was at a loss, a familiar voice came from the side.
Lu Chen turned his head and saw a beautiful woman standing behind him with a complicated expression.
"Wang Ying!"
Lu Chen blurted out, "Why are you here?"
Wang Ying seemed to have made up her mind. She bit her lip and said, "Lu Chen, let's break up."
"Break up?"
Lu Chen felt that his head was about to explode. He couldn't believe his ears. "Why?"
"I love you very much, but love can't replace reality. You can't give me what I want …"
Wang Ying talked endlessly, but Lu Chen couldn't hear a word. A kind of heart-wrenching pain spread in his body, and the cramps in his stomach made him involuntarily bend over and squat on the ground.
"No!"
"Lu Chen …"
When he was in so much pain that he couldn't control himself, an angelic voice sounded in his ear, replacing Wang Ying's incantation.
Lu Chen reluctantly raised his head. The bright light shone on him, making him unable to see the other person's face.
"Lu Chen!"
Another shout woke him up!
Trying to open his eyes, Lu Chen found himself lying on the bed. The light on the bedside table was on. Chen Fei 'er was holding him with a concerned look and asked softly, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Lu Chen took a long breath and was completely awake. He asked, "What time is it?"
Chen Fei 'er said, "It's still early. Go back to sleep."
Lu Chen didn't say anything, so she didn't ask.
Lu Chen nodded and hugged her tightly in his arms, as if hugging the whole world.
It's so good to have you.
