Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

Chapter 49

In the car.

"How is business today?"

Looking at Xu Ziqi who was driving, Ye Xiaoyu asked.

"Not bad."

Xu Ziqi answered casually while driving.

"Oh." Ye Xiaoyu nodded.

She looked at Xu Ziqi again and found that he frowned slightly.

Although it was just a little bit, she was still keenly aware of it.

So she asked directly without thinking: "What's wrong with you? You look a little unhappy."

"Nothing." Xu Ziqi said carelessly, "I'm just a little tired from being busy at noon."

Ye Xiaoyu seemed to not believe it, and looked at Xu Ziqi suspiciously, and found that he looked calm.

After thinking for a while, he said seriously: "Remember to tell me if you have anything."

"Yeah." Xu Ziqi nodded gently, "I know."

Hearing the answer, Ye Xiaoyu turned her head with relief.

Glancing at Ye Xiaoyu with his peripheral vision, Xu Ziqi sighed in his heart.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk to Ye Xiaoyu, but he feels that their relationship is a little subtle now.

If it was before, Xu Ziqi would definitely tell him everything.

Because he regards Ye Xiaoyu as a good friend, and they can confide in each other.

But it's different now.

He thought about it carefully before.

Since he reunited with Ye Xiaoyu, Ye Xiaoyu has basically been with him except for working hours.

And she either borrowed his car or helped the store, and now he drives her to and from get off work every day.

Is there such a friend?

Isn't this the behavior between lovers or family members?

So he feels very strange now.

They are friends, but what they do is not just friends.

They are lovers, but it seems that there is a breath missing.

Anyway, it's hard to figure it out.

So Xu Ziqi feels that he can't let Ye Xiaoyu interfere in his affairs anymore.

He really feels a little indebted.

The girl thinks about you every day, and can even see that you are in a bad mood.

And you.

Besides being able to make a few buns, a few bowls of porridge, and drive.

That’s all.

…

Back in the store, Ye Xiaoyu started helping as usual.

Xu Ziqi didn’t stop her.

He knew it was useless to stop her.

She just wanted to do it.

She was responsible for her own meals.

But to be honest, Ye Xiaoyu really liked to drink porridge.

Especially century egg and lean meat porridge.

“Brother Ziqi, serve another bowl.”

After licking the remaining porridge on the corner of her mouth, Ye Xiaoyu handed the bowl to Xu Ziqi, urging him: “Hurry up.”

Xu Ziqi took the bowl with a smile, and said exaggeratedly: “Still eating, this is your fifth bowl.”

Ye Xiaoyu blushed, and then glanced at Xu Ziqi.

"Why, you won't give me food? Are you afraid that I'll go bankrupt by feeding you?"

"Of course not." Xu Ziqi looked at her strangely, "I'm afraid that you'll get fat and blame me later."

Hearing Xu Ziqi's words, Ye Xiaoyu lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips, thought for a while, raised her head again, and looked at Xu Ziqi boldly.

"Then...if I get fat, will you dislike me?"

"Will you still be friends with me?"

Xu Ziqi was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Even if you turn into a pig, I won't dislike you."

Ye Xiaoyu was very happy in her heart, but she looked arrogant on the surface.

"Hehe, I won't turn into a pig."

"You should be more careful."

"Don't turn into a dog."

"Xu! Er! Gou!"

...

"Damn!" Xu Ziqi glared at Ye Xiaoyu when he heard this, "It's only been a few days, you're insulting me again, right?"

Ye Xiaoyu snorted, "Who told you to say I'm a pig? I can't gain weight."

"Okay, okay, you're right." Xu Ziqi gestured helplessly at the bowl in his hand and asked, "How much do you want to put in?"

"A pig that can't gain weight."

"Go to hell, Xu Ergou."

"Damn, you're just pinching me when you can't win the argument, right?"

...

Wu Jianshe walked into the store humming a little tune, and was stunned when he saw Xu Ziqi and Ye Xiaoyu playing together.

He scratched his head and asked awkwardly, "Uh... shouldn't I come at this time?"

Seeing Wu Jianshe coming in, Ye Xiaoyu immediately stopped his evil hands.

She tidied her messy hair, sat upright, and became a lady.

But her hot cheeks betrayed her inner feelings.

Her heart was beating wildly.

Xu Ziqi didn't think much of it, as he and Ye Xiaoyu were used to playing around in high school.

He nodded and greeted Wu Jianshe, went into the kitchen to serve the porridge, and brought out the crab soup dumplings.

He first served the porridge to Ye Xiaoyu, and then sat down face to face with Wu Jianshe.

"Brother Wu, why are you so late today?" Xu Ziqi said.Qi asked.

It's 8:20 now.

He wanted to close the shop at 8 o'clock, but then he remembered that Wu Jianshe hadn't come today.

He was afraid that he would be delayed by something, and Ye Xiaoyu happened to say that she was hungry.

So he waited a little longer.

"Wait a minute, I'll take a sip of the soup first."

Wu Jianshe signaled Xu Ziqi to wait for a while, then took a straw, pierced the skin of the soup dumpling, and then greedily took a sip of the soup.

After sucking the soup, he let out another "ah", looked at Xu Ziqi, and nodded with satisfaction.

"This crab roe soup dumpling is really delicious, I'm really afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future."

"Xiao Xu, can I make a request?"

Xu Ziqi smiled, "What request?"

"Be my private chef."

"This..."

Xu Ziqi was a little surprised.

Are you sure?

Private chef?

"Brother Wu, don't tease me." Xu Ziqi scratched his head and said awkwardly.

"I'm telling the truth."

Wu Jianshe said seriously: "How much money can you make in a month now? 300,000? 400,000? Well... let's do this, I'll pay you according to how much money you make in a month."

"Then you only need to cook for me at mealtime."

"You can arrange your other free time freely."

"How about it? Consider it?"

"..."

Xu Ziqi tried hard not to be shocked.

He only knew that Wu Jianshe was in the real estate business before.

But he didn't expect him to be so rich.

He actually wanted to hire himself...

Ahem...hire himself as a chef.

And he offered such a high salary.

You know, he can make about 15,000 a day now, which means 450,000 a month, and more than 5 million a year.

Spend more than 5 million a year to hire a private chef?

And he only needs to cook three meals a day!

Fuck, you don't spend money like this...

But looking at Wu Jianshe's serious look, it doesn't seem like he's joking.

After hesitating for a while, Xu Ziqi answered cautiously: "That... um... Brother Wu, let's not do it."

"Why?" Wu Jianshe was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized, "You think it's too little, right? It's okay, you can add as much as you want."

Fuck!

Is this a human?

Xu Ziqi quickly explained: "It's not like that, um... how should I put it..."

After thinking for a while, Xu Ziqi continued: "Opening a store is my ideal."

"I want everyone to know that there is a place called "Food Paradise."

"Here, everyone can eat the most delicious food."

"You can also find the most profound memory about food."

"Just like you, Brother Wu."

As he said, Xu Ziqi smiled, "Although it sounds a bit second-year, I think so."

In fact, he did think so.

Besides, it would be too boring to work for others even if you have a system.

...

After being rejected by Xu Ziqi, Wu Jianshe was not angry.

"Alas, what a pity."

He sighed and said, "It's good that you have such an idea. To be honest, I am selfish. I actually want to occupy you as a chef. No, I should say the God of Cookery?"

Hearing this, Xu Ziqi felt a little embarrassed, "I am not a God of Cookery, just a small boss."

"With such a great ideal, you are not the God of Cookery?" Wu Jianshe said exaggeratedly, "If you are not the God of Cookery, who is the God of Cookery?"

"Brother Wu, don't joke with me."

"Okay, whether you accept it or not, you are the God of Cookery to me."

As he said, Wu Jianshe gave a thumbs up.

To be honest, he didn't expect that he would say such a thing.

After all, he is in his 40s and still talks about "God".

He is not afraid of being laughed at if he says it out.

But there is no way. Looking at this young man and knowing his ideal, he unconsciously followed the middle school second.

"Alas."

Wu Jianshe sighed again, "I wanted to do something for you, after all, you have done so much for me."

"You prepared ginger vinegar, waited for me until now, and refused to accept the money for the soup dumplings."

"That's too embarrassing."

"Don't you have any worries? Tell me so I can help you solve them?" Wu Jianshe asked very seriously.
