Luo Yifan barely managed to suppress the urge to flip the table, took a deep breath, and looked at Chen Jing.
"Alright, this is the last vegetarian dish we've decided on. Thank you for your hard work!"
Chen Jing stared at him, then extended her hand to him, "Yes, it's a pleasure to work with you!"
Luo Yifan said that even with his good temper, he felt like killing someone at that moment.
But Chen Jing seemed completely oblivious to the ruthlessness in his eyes. Seeing that he was staring at her but had no intention of shaking her hand, she withdrew her hand.
"Mr. Luo, now that the menu is finalized, all we have to do is wait for the exhibition to begin, right?"
Luo Yifan continued to stare at her. Receiving no answer, Chen Jing simply answered her own question, "Alright then, I'll just wait patiently for your notification!"
After saying that, she turned and went into the kitchen to continue with her own business.
She was too lazy to even clean up the plates and food containers on the table.
Luo Yifan didn't know what his mindset was, but anyway, he remained calmly seated in the chair and didn't leave.
Before long, the people in the store returned one after another. Xiaoya was the first to arrive, and she was quite startled when she saw him.
"Mr. Luo, are you here on business again?"
"Hmm!" Luo Yifan nodded, unusually cool.
Xiaoya stuck out her tongue, tidied up the mess in front of him, and carried it into the kitchen.
"Aunt Jing, did you know that Boss Luo is outside?"
Chen Jing looked up in surprise, "He hasn't left yet?"
Xiaoya pondered this carefully. Not yet? Does that mean Boss Luo has been here for quite some time?
However, the landlady was in a very bad mood a few days ago, and Xiaoya wasn't sure if it was related to this Mr. Luo, so for the time being, she didn't dare to joke about Mr. Luo with her landlady.
"Yes, he's sitting at that four-person table outside!"
He also acts indifferent to people, displaying the aloof and wealthy businessman demeanor.
Xiaoya silently complained to herself before turning around and running out.
The store employees returned one after another. Everyone knew Luo Yifan, but everyone also knew that their boss's wife had been in a very bad mood a couple of days ago. They wondered if it was because of this boss, Mr. Luo.
Because of this consensus, all the shop assistants became very polite to him, treating him like a guest.
They brought him tea and some snacks.
They even told him that the table he was sitting at was already reserved and asked him to move to the two-person table he used to sit at.
Luo Yifan left, and no one in the store paid attention to when he left.
No one told Chen Jing that he had left, so when Chen Jing brought out some snacks for the guests, he habitually glanced at the two-person table next to him and found that no one was sitting at the table, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
After lunch, Chen Jing took a shower, changed her clothes, and went out as usual. She didn't return until almost five o'clock.
When Xiaoya and the others saw her return and noticed that she looked well, they boldly teased her, "Aunt Jing, did you go on a date?"
Chen Jing smiled noncommittally, "Stop gossiping!"
Business was good at dinner, and Chen Jing was so busy she barely had time to breathe. So when Xiao Ya came in and told her, "Aunt Jing, Boss Luo is here again. He said he wants you to go out for a bit," Chen Jing was so annoyed she wanted to curse.
After finally finishing serving a table of customers, he hurriedly went out. "Boss Luo, what's the matter?"
Chen Jing has a good temper, but that doesn't mean she has no temper.
Having been spoken to that extent, of course I wouldn't be so tactless as to stick around anymore.
The fall she suffered on Takeshima was extremely painful, so now she naturally can't be as foolish as before, when someone just casually tossed her a bone like teasing a dog, and she foolishly treated them as her master, wagging her tail and following them around.
Luo Yifan casually picked up his tea, took a sip, and then lifted his eyelids to look at her.
"Do you still stand by what you said?"
Luo Yifan now seemed to have regained his former calm and composed demeanor. The imposing aura he displayed that morning, like a volcano about to erupt, had completely vanished.
Chen Jing frowned. "I said it, so of course it counts."
After saying that, he thought about it carefully, but couldn't recall what he had said that required this big boss to come back specifically to ask for it.
"But what did I say?"
Luo Yifan didn't seem to care about her forgetfulness. "Didn't you say you'd cook whatever I wanted to eat?"
Chen Jing suddenly remembered that when Zhu Zhizhou caused trouble that time, it was all thanks to Luo Yifan's righteousness that she was able to get out of trouble and even make her look good.
She did say those words at the time.
But their relationship was pretty good back then. Now that they can't even talk to each other anymore, what does it mean to ask for this to be fulfilled?
Do you still think it's fun to tease her?
But she had indeed said those words, and even though she was full of doubt and reluctance, she still nodded.
"Yes, that's right. So, what would you like to eat, Mr. Luo? I'll make it!"
Chen Jing's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, making it difficult for others to discern her emotions.
Of course, it doesn't seem like happiness, but it's impossible to tell whether it's unhappiness or annoyance.
Luo Yifan stared at her for a while, then sighed silently before speaking.
"Well, since you're willing to admit it, let me think about it carefully and then I'll tell you."
Chen Jing almost couldn't resist smearing a plate of pastries on his face, but she suppressed her anger and turned to walk back to the kitchen.
Fortunately, her temper would easily subside once she entered the kitchen. A few minutes later, Xiaoya brought in the menu that Luo Yifan had ordered and handed it to her.
"Aunt Jing, these are the dishes that Boss Luo ordered."
Chen Jing glanced down at the screen. "Okay, I understand."
He was quite sensible, ordering only dishes with very simple preparation methods and in small quantities.
Chen Jing quickly prepared his dishes and, to show her sincerity in keeping her promise, personally delivered them to his table on a tray.
It wasn't that she was particularly obedient, but rather that she didn't want to give him a chance to find fault.
"Boss Luo, your dish is ready!"
Luo Yifan smiled at her and said, "Thank you, you've worked hard!"
Chen Jing smiled back at him, arranged the dishes one by one, turned around, and was about to go back to the kitchen.
But his arm was grabbed.
Chen Jing looked down at him, puzzled.
"Want to eat together?"
Luo Yifan asked casually, as if it were just a random question, but he showed no intention of letting go of her arm.
"No, I still have work to do. Enjoy your meal!"
Chen Jing started walking away, and Luo Yifan had no choice but to let go of her hand.
As Chen Jing entered the kitchen, the food on the table emitted an enticing aroma.
Luo Yifan didn't rush to eat; instead, he picked up the phone and dialed a number.
"Xiaoyu, it's not working! Tell me quickly, what are your mom's likes and dislikes?"
