Lu Jiu had been thinking about how to ask Si Xu to celebrate his birthday, but in the end, he didn't need to ask. Si Xu took the initiative to contact him and wanted to bring his family to the store for a meal, and asked Lu Jiu if it was convenient.

Lu Jiu thought it was very convenient and there was no inconvenience.

In order to facilitate Si Xu and his family to celebrate his birthday together, Lu Jiu specially issued a notice that only lunch would be served on this day, and no dinner would be provided.

The comment area was full of question marks, asking why, were they going out to restock again? They had just returned to open the store for one day!

Lu Jiu specially replied to the comments.

藺九v: "It's my friend's birthday, I don't have time to open the store."

Comments:

"Is the Buddhist Boss 藺 back again? Scared.jpg"

"What birthday is more important than opening a store? Come back and open a store for me!" "Boss

藺, you are not doing your job. You are just about to make money, but you are pigeonholing us. Don't you want the money anymore?" "Am I the only one who wants to know which friend of Boss 藺? He didn't open the store because of his friend's birthday. This friend is not simple !" "Wow, today is Qiu Yuqian's birthday ahh ... She doesn't work hard, but just wants to ride on the popularity. Is it a big deal that it's Qiu Yuqian's birthday? Today is my God Si's birthday, why isn't it Boss Lue who celebrates my God Si's birthday? !" "CP fans, have some shame. Qiu Yuqian is riding on the popularity when she's tied to Lu Jiu, but isn't it riding on the popularity when Lu Jiu is tied to Si Shen?" "You guys can keep arguing, but don't involve our Boss Lue. Boss Lue has already retired from the entertainment industry and doesn't want to ride on the popularity. Thank you." The Internet has already started a fight, with three parties fighting to protect their own. Lue Jiu has no time to pay attention to Weibo anymore, as he has a lot of things to do today. The lunch seats were almost all taken by last night's customers. They all had dark circles under their eyes, and they looked at Boss Lue with admiration. They couldn't say a word, so they could only thank Boss Lue sincerely. Facing a monster like that, the only person who dared to pick up the harpoon and attack was Boss Lu. The way Boss Lu's harpoon appeared was very unreasonable, and it was even more unreasonable for another person to hold the monster in the air. Just last night, their worldview completely collapsed. They tossed around all night and still hadn't finished rebuilding, so they came again today, hoping that the rebuilding progress bar could be pulled faster. Facing their thanks, Lu Jiu accepted all the orders, just hoping that they could finish eating and leave quickly so that he could clean up the shop and prepare dinner. Finally, everyone was sent away, and Lu Jiu could work. Lu Jiu issued a notice just to prevent customers from queuing. There were indeed no customers queuing during dinner time, but there were always a lot of people hanging around outside, and there was a trend of more and more people. Some of them were holding gifts in their hands, and their identities were obvious at a glance. Si Xu didn't spend his birthday with his fans this year, nor did he interact with them. These fans actually followed him here to try their luck. Lu Jiu was tired. When Si Xu brings his family over later, won't they be blocked? Lu Jiu called Si Xu and told him the situation here. "I know, we will be there in ten minutes." Si Xu had expected this situation. There were only mom and grandpa in the car. Grandpa and grandma would come alone, and dad was too busy at work, so it was not certain whether he could come. Grandpa was very silent along the way. After this birthday, Si Xu will be 29. How could he not be worried? Grandpa said, "Why don't you just quit the entertainment industry? It's inconvenient for you to go anywhere." Rather than living under the camera, Grandpa hoped that Si Xu could recover from his illness without being disturbed. His health has improved a lot and he can continue to manage the company. He wants Si Xu to have more time to rest, not to let Si Xu return to the entertainment industry and work hard. "I'm thinking that even if I quit the entertainment industry, I have to make up for the remaining concerts to my fans." Si Xu doesn't like to give up halfway. Grandpa disagreed, "You don't have the time and energy to make up for the concerts. Give them a refund, or give them some compensation, even if it's twice the ticket price, anyway, don't bother them anymore." Grandpa swallowed his words to persuade him to rest more and recover from his illness. He was afraid that his daughter would hear it, so he didn't dare to say more. "These three concerts may be my last time standing on the stage. Let me complete them perfectly. I don't want to leave any regrets." Si Xu said in a relaxed tone, but grandpa's eyes were red. He looked out the window, not daring to let his daughter beside him notice. The car stopped at the door of the store, and the bodyguards were guarding the car. The moment Si Xu got out, screams rang out one after another outside. “Ahhhhhh——!!!!!! God Si!!! It’s really God Si!!!!” “Happy birthday to God Si——!!!!!” “Happy birthday——!!!!” “Ahhhhh——!!! God Si, look at me!!!!” Si Xu took off his mask and smiled at them, “Thank you, it’s too cold outside, don’t wait here, let’s all go back.” The fans shouted in unison, “We are not cold——!!!!” Rujiu came out of the store and helped to open the door. Grandpa pushed Song Mozhi in. Si Xu was still standing outside. Fans wanted to give Si Xu gifts, but they were all rejected by the bodyguard. Rujiu returned to the kitchen, carried out a tall stack of steamers, placed them on the first table by the door, picked up the first layer of steamers and walked to Si Xu. Si Xu only felt a misty white mist in front of him, and turned his head to see the big steamer in Rujiu’s hand. Lu Jiu: "Open it and have a look." Si Xu took up the lid, steam was rising, and inside the steamer were plump, pink and tender succulent peaches, small and delicate, with a fresh and fragrant smell. Si Xu was very surprised. He had eaten at the Magic Fish Shop so many times, but he had never seen pasta. "Many of them have been hanging out outside for the whole afternoon. It's estimated that they will soon be frozen into popsicles. Share them. One for each person should be enough." Si Xu looked at him deeply, with warmth rising in his heart. He really wanted to hug him and kiss him. Today was his birthday, and Si Xu decided to let himself go. He reached out and grabbed Lu Jiu, pressed his head into his arms, and used his body position to cover him and gently kissed the top of Lu Jiu's head. Lu Jiu was still holding the big steamer in his hand and leaning on Si Xu's arms. He looked stupid. He smelled the scent on Si Xu's body, which should be the perfume in the car. It smelled very good with the coldness of winter.

When Si Xu let him go, Lu Jiu was still in a daze, his face was already red under the mask, and his ears were filled with crazy screams. The fan almost died on the spot. Si

Xu looked down at him with an undisguised smile on his face, "Thank you."

Lu Jiu was so panicked that he almost threw the steamer on the ground, his heart beating uncontrollably, "No, no need."

Si Xu called in bodyguards, and each of them sent a steamer to the fan.

The fans looked at the steaming steamer and went crazy, almost going crazy with excitement.

Not to mention that they couldn't afford the consumption level of the Magic Fish Shop, just talking about the difficulty of queuing, they never thought that they would be able to eat the food of the Magic Fish Shop in this life, chasing stars to get free products and taste the craftsmanship of the boss, this is enough to brag about it on Weibo.

The succulent peaches are not big, beautiful and delicate, and you can finish one in two bites. Each person has a succulent peach and disposable gloves.

Some people can't wait to eat it, and then they are blessed by the deliciousness.

"It's so delicious!! Thank you, boss Luo!!! Thank you, God!!!!"

"Mom, is this the craftsmanship of boss Luo? It's so delicious!!!!"

"I'm so dry, I can eat 50 succulent peaches like this in one meal!"

There were laughter all around, and the scene was very happy.

There are more and more fans, and many fans who received the news are on their way.

Si Xu laughed helplessly, "There are no more later. Boss Lu is very tired to make so many longevity peaches. Thank you everyone, go back after eating, don't wait outside, it's too cold."

The two were finally able to go back to the store. Lu Jiu packed up the steamer and put it back in the kitchen.

There was another steamer in the kitchen, which Lu Jiu left for Si Xu and the bodyguards to taste. Lu Jiu himself hadn't eaten pasta for a long time. These noodles were all made of ordinary flour. Lu Jiu ordered delivery. There was no other way. His magic value was too low. He couldn't even buy flour.

"Try it." Lu Jiu took out a plate and kept it to send to the private room.

Si Xu picked up one with wooden chopsticks and took a bite.

"How was it?" asked Lu Jiu.

"The shou peaches were soft and the fillings were fresh and delicious." Si Xu praised them generously.

"Did you taste the fillings?"

"Shrimp and meat?" Si Xu was unsure.

Lu Jiu nodded, "It was indeed shrimp and meat."

Lu Jiu couldn't afford to send all the shou peaches with shrimp, so he used a whole Magic Flower dragon meat and pork as the fillings. As long as the flavor was well adjusted, the shou peaches would not be bad.

Lu Jiu ate one himself, sent a plate to the private room, and let the bodyguards share the rest.

Si Xu's grandparents arrived soon. Grandma Si was very gentle, a well-educated and elegant old lady. Grandpa Si looked more serious. As soon as the old couple entered the private room, they were attracted by the small longevity peaches.

"The boss's craftsmanship is really good, and the longevity peaches are so beautiful." Grandma Si picked up a longevity peach and put it on the plate to observe for a long time.

Lu Jiu: "This is a fan benefit. Bring some over for you to try."

Si Xu is not very old, so normally he doesn't need longevity peaches. It's a bit ugly to steam the buns directly, so he made them into longevity peaches.

Si Xu said: "Everyone is here, we can serve the dishes."

Lu Jiu was a little surprised that Jiang Ge didn't come, and Si Xu's father didn't come either.

Lu Jiu did not ask any more questions and went out to prepare the dishes. Si Xu followed to help.

Lu Jiu asked in a low voice: "Is Jiang Ge not coming?"

"There was not enough space in the private room, so I didn't let him come. I'll treat him to a meal alone another day..."

"I can eat standing up." Jiang Ge pushed the door open and came in.

Si Xu looked over, "Didn't we agree to treat you another day?"

"What I lack is a meal from you? What I lack is the opportunity to come to the Magic Fish Restaurant to eat anytime and anywhere!" Jiang Ge asked Lu Jiu, "What are the conditions for going to the second floor? I want to go to the second floor too."

Jiang Ge's love for the Magic Fish Restaurant is absolutely no problem, what he lacks is consumption.

Jiu Jiu: "If you spend over 1 million, you can move to the second floor."

Jiang Ge slammed the table and said, "I'll pay for this birthday party, I want to move to the second floor!"

Si Xu had already moved to the second floor, and if he didn't follow him, he wouldn't even have the chance to eat for free in the future, which was absolutely unacceptable.

Si Xu: "No need..."

Lu Jiu: "No need, I'll treat you for dinner."

Si Xu: "..."

Jiang Ge got angry, "You're the boss, why are you treating? Can you give me, a customer, a chance! Is this table worth one million tonight enough? If not, give me more dishes and wine, I want to move to the second floor!"

Lu Jiu: "..."

Jiang Ge: "Is it enough?"

Lu Jiu: "...maybe more."

Jiang Ge: "Then let me pay for tonight."

Lu Jiu: "..."

Si Xu said: "Then let A Ge pay, you've been busy until now and you're very tired, I can't let you lose money."

Lu Jiu: "..."

She was just angry and didn't give him a chance to show off at all.

Lu Jiu did not dwell on the question of who should pay, and brought out all the prepared dishes, asking Si Xu and Jiang Ge to take them to the private room. Lu Jiu

finally brought out a seafood cake, which was not big, only 8 inches, with a layer of silver fish meat on top, and then decorated with caviar and sea ball roe, and two number candles were inserted on the cake.

Jiang Ge saw that the cake was so small, how could he show his generosity, "The cake is too small, is there a bigger one?"

Lu Jiu glanced at him, "How big do you want it?"

Jiang Ge gestured with his hands, "At least a 14 or 16-inch cake, with multiple layers."

Lu Jiu: "I can make any size cake you want, but can you finish it?"

Jiang Ge: "..."

Jiang Ge: "The purpose of cake is not to eat, right?"

Lu Jiu: "Don't you know I don't allow waste here?"

Jiang Ge: "..."

Lu Jiu said: "Please finish the cake, you are treating us, and most of the money tonight is on this cake."

Jiang Ge was dumbfounded, "What kind of cake costs hundreds of thousands?!"

Lu Jiu snorted coldly, "Don't insult this cake, hundreds of thousands can only buy you a layer of silver fish and caviar on top."

Jiang Ge: "......!!!!"

Jiang Ge looked at Si Xu blankly, "I think Boss Lu wants to rip me off."

Si Xu suppressed a smile, "I don't think so."

Lu Jiu pointed at the cake, "This is not bread and butter, there is a whole piece of small blue devil tentacle meat in it, small blue devil meat is 500,000 per pound, you can calculate how much this 8-inch cake is worth."

Jiang Ge almost knelt down, this damn estimate of 2 million is not even worth it!

Lu Jiu looked at Jiang Ge, "Are you still going to treat us?"

Jiang Ge gritted his teeth and tried to straighten his back, "Yes, of course I will. No, it's just a few million, I can afford it!"

Lu Jiu felt that he was one step closer to 10 million.

The dishes were served one by one, and the seafood cake was served at the end. Lu Jiu wanted to leave, but was stopped by Si Xu.

"Let's eat together. You've been busy until now."

"There are no other guests tonight. You young people know each other. Let's eat together." Grandpa called Lu Jiu to sit down.

There was a long wooden table in the private room, with six seats facing each other. In fact, two people can sit at the two ends, but they don't usually sit like this. If there are many people and they are all acquaintances, don't worry about these and you can sit anywhere.

Song Mozhi sat in a wheelchair at one end of the six-person table, and the seven of them sat around it in a very comfortable space.

Lu Jiu brought out the Huahong fruit wine as the main drink tonight.

One glass for each person, and they clinked glasses first.

Lu Jiu, Si Xu, and Jiang Ge were more familiar with the taste of Huahong fruit wine, but the other four were not. Song Mozhi and Grandma Si were both women, and they naturally liked this fragrant and sweet fruit wine, but Grandpa and Grandpa Si were not used to drinking this kind of wine.

Grandpa frowned immediately, "Do you have any strong liquor? I'm not used to this kind of wine."

Rujiu paused, and Jiang Ge immediately replied, "Yes, yes, he has a special kind of strong wine hidden, that's the wine a man should drink."

Grandpa: "Then you must try it."

Rujiu hesitated, then said: "It's okay, I'll watch them." Rujiu

then got up to get the Huaqing fruit wine, only took a small pot, not daring to take more, one glass per person would not be a problem.

Grandma Si smiled and said, "Only you two old men have a strong taste. Mo Zhi and I think this wine is delicious."

Song Mo Zhi nodded, "The wine is very fragrant and mild, and it is indeed delicious."

Jiang Ge said, "This is women's wine, and this kind of flower green fruit wine is men's wine."

Si Xu took the wine pot from Lu Jiu's hand, poured a glass for Grandpa, Grandpa and Jiang Ge, and then put the wine pot next to him.

Grandpa Song and Grandpa Si clinked their glasses and took a sip each. Both of them looked surprised. They had drunk wine all their lives, but they had never drunk such a special wine. The taste was very strong.

"Is it delicious?" Jiang Ge had been observing them.

Grandpa Song said generously, "Good wine!"

Grandpa Si also nodded, "It's really delicious."

After a glass of wine, Jiang Ge clamored to cut the cake first. He must see with his own eyes what made this cake so expensive. After

lighting candles, making wishes, and blowing candles, it was finally time to cut the cake. Jiang Ge stared at the knife in Si Xu's hand without blinking.

Si Xu divided the cake into eight equal parts. Since his father was not there, he also left one for him.

The feeling of cutting was completely different from bread cakes. It was heavy and solid. Jiu Jiu said it was a pure seafood cake, which was absolutely true. The whole cake was a whole piece of small blue devil tentacles cut into a circle, with a layer of thick white fruit pulp on it. It looked very much like cream, but it was not. This kind of fruit pulp was sour and sweet with a slight saltiness. It tasted very special when dipped in seafood.

The little blue devil tentacles were seasoned and stewed again. The meat was tender and more suitable for the elderly. Tentacle meat is not easy to digest. Each person was given such a large piece. After eating it all, they were almost full. There was still a table of food that was not touched. Jiang Ge finally admitted that the cake really can't be too big.

A glass of Huaqing fruit wine was quickly finished. Grandpa Song and Grandpa Si wanted to have another glass, but they were rejected by Si Xu, who made it clear that each person could only drink one glass. If they wanted to drink, they could only drink Huahong fruit wine.

The two had no choice but to give up, eat more vegetables and drink less wine.

Halfway through the meal, Grandpa Song wanted to go out to smoke a cigarette and take a break before eating again.

Si Xu stood up and said, "You guys continue eating, I'll go check."

Si Xu followed him out. Grandpa was not in the lobby. Si Xu pushed the door open and went out. Grandpa was sitting on a bench under the window smoking. The fans outside had been persuaded to leave by the bodyguards. It was too cold outside and waiting all the time was not a solution.

Si Xu walked over and sat next to Grandpa.

Grandpa didn't look at him, but just smoked silently.

After a long time, Grandpa whispered, "29..."

After finishing one cigarette, Grandpa continued to smoke the second one.

"Don't smoke anymore, it's not good for your health." Si Xu took the cigarette from Grandpa's hand.

"I'm fine now. Don't worry about me. Just pay more attention to your own health."

Grandpa shook his head. "Your situation is exactly the same as your grandmother's. How can I not worry?"

Si Xu said, "I can eat normally now and I don't feel any discomfort. I may be the exception."

"I also want to believe that you are the exception, but things are not as simple as you think. Before your grandmother passed away, she told me that this is a problem with her genes. Her descendants may also have the same disease as her. I raised your mother with great concern, and she lived safely past the age of 30, so I felt relieved. As a result, your grandmother's gene will show up in you..."

Grandpa's voice was hoarse, "After learning that your memory is beyond ordinary people, I have been worried that there will be such a day. Over the years, I have checked a lot of information and know that there are people in the world who are just like you. They also cannot live past the age of 30, and the symptoms before they die are very similar, weakness, emaciation, and inability to eat..."

"No one with these symptoms has survived, no one." Grandpa reached for the cigarette with shaking hands and picked up another one.
