Chapter 23 Meow meow meow
Gu Xingzhou doubted his ears.
What do you mean, why not let him sit in this seat?
'who is he?
Fried rice stall owner? !
That's a bit ridiculous.
It's ridiculous, but it makes people doubt that Gu Tiancheng might really do such a thing.
He is the only son of the Gu family. His father never remarried after his mother died of illness more than ten years ago. However, he also did not, as the outside world imagined, grant every request of his only child.
On the contrary, Gu Tiancheng was very strict with him.
But the stricter the rules, the more rebellious Gu Xingzhou became.
He is a person who does what he wants and refuses to be disciplined, and he is capable of doing anything out of the ordinary.
Ten years ago, Gu Xingzhou got carried away by his success and lost nine figures in the casino, and even nearly had his fingers chopped off. At that time, Gu Tiancheng directly severed the father-son relationship with Gu Xingzhou, kicked him out of the house, and adopted children from a side branch to train as successors.
If he hadn't met Ning Sheng, Gu Xingzhou would really have starved to death on the street.
As for how he later returned to the Gu family, how he endured humiliation to gain Gu Tiancheng's approval and took the seat of successor, that is another tortuous story.
Gu Tiancheng looked at Gu Xingzhou, then at his darts, photos, and messy documents, and he became more and more annoyed.
He thought of his deceased wife's smile and couldn't help but sigh, "Ah Yue, we both did good deeds in this life, but what sin did we commit to give birth to a debt collector like this!"
"You must return to the old house on time at 5 o'clock this afternoon. I have invited a distinguished guest to dinner. Let him teach you how to behave in society," Gu Tiancheng pointed his finger at Gu Xingzhou and said angrily, "Don't do anything else improper."
Gu Xingzhou sighed, his eyes dark, "Dad, I have something to do, let's do it another day."
He is going to see Ning Sheng.
Everything is ready, he wants to give Ah Sheng... a 'surprise'.
Thinking of Ning Sheng's expression, Gu Xingzhou curled the corners of his lips and revealed an interested smile.
"What bad things are you planning?" Gu Tiancheng hit him hard on the head, "You evil bastard!"
Gu Xingzhou was startled by the beating: "..."
Gu Tiancheng issued an ultimatum: "If you don't go home by five o'clock today, you will come to the company tomorrow to pack up your things and get out."
After saying that, Gu Tiancheng turned around and walked out.
But the aftereffects of those words still resonate.
Gu Xingzhou looked at his departing back in disbelief.
"dad……"
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
【Ha ha ha ha! 】
[You are such a troublemaker!] ! ! It is a wake-up call and very satisfying.]
[Director Gu is handsome, and old ginger is still spicy (call) (call)]
[Good news: Gu Gou hasn't bothered Ning Bao for four days. Ning Bao is happy every day.]
[How come Ning Sheng's rich lady fans are so rich? They spend money like crazy. Boss Jian has earned her status with real money.]
[I don't care, Ning Bao fell in love with Boss Jian's food, how can it not be considered love~]
[This is even possible (falling) I am really questioning my life. The meaning of squatting in the live broadcast room every day is to watch how Boss Jian pushes the plot in a way that no one can imagine...]
Because the plot has progressed by leaps and bounds in the past two days, not only Ming Ruogui, but now even Director Gu has been impressed by Jian Yunlan's fried rice, and everyone is blinded by this wonderfully developed plot.
Although the plot cracking line was only pushed forward by about 8% due to the lack of a strategy to conquer Gu Xingzhou himself, this was enough for Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room to stand out from the crowd, soaring straight up and breaking into the top 20!
Another three to four thousand viewers were attracted and poured into the live broadcast room.
Ning Sheng's fans were overjoyed and threw all kinds of gifts at him like they were free. The more Gu Xingzhou suffered a setback, the happier they were.
Of course, Gu Xingzhou’s fans protested loudly.
——This is unscientific no matter how you think about it.
A bowl of fried rice was able to conquer Director Gu so much that he even wanted to pull Gu Xingzhou down from the position of president and replace him with Jian Yunlan!
There must be a bug in the plot.
As fans of Gu Xingzhou, they have been scolded and attacked, but they have never felt so aggrieved.
They wanted to see Gu Xingzhou being abused, they wanted to see him chase his wife to the crematorium, they wanted to see him go crazy, want something but can't get it, turn evil and force love... instead of seeing him get humiliated, get scolded by his parents, and have his position as president threatened by the owner of a snack stand!
If what Mr. Gu said comes true, can the plot of "Paranoia" continue?
Everyone loves to see a domineering president forcing love on others.
But if it is replaced by a domineering laid-off and unemployed vagrant forcing love...
Withered instantly.
Sounds very sexual.
[Gu Gou will not give up easily. Just wait and see. He will definitely teach Boss Jian a lesson.]
[Do you believe what you say? (Lights a cigarette)]
[Director Gu invited Boss Jian to his home tonight and forced Gu Xingzhou to go back as well. Let's wait and see~ Who will win~]
[Opening, odds are available, buy now! 】
Gu Xingzhou fans: …
You guys are a bunch of spectators who never mind making trouble!
.
There is a snack stand downstairs of Yuanzhou Group.
Zhang Mo and Bei Shi stood in the queue with heavy hearts, and both of them looked a little embarrassed.
Zhang Mo's embarrassment comes from grief and heartbreak.
He thought that Bei Shi was unusually nice to him because they had a mutual understanding and Bei Shi also wanted to spend her life with him.
...Who knew that Bei Shi only cared about Boss Jian’s fried rice!
And Bei Shi’s embarrassment is even more obvious.
The egg fried rice that Ming Ruogui bought yesterday was eaten on the spot. Bei Shi was so restless and couldn't sleep after not eating fried rice for the whole day. At five in the morning, she opened her eyes and made up her mind that she must eat fried rice with egg today!
To this end, she bathed, burned incense, changed clothes, and put on makeup, just to be in the best condition to welcome the egg fried rice.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Mo actually misunderstood.
Not only did he misunderstand, he also knelt down on one knee and took out the ring.
Is there any proposal more awkward than this?
Just thinking about it, Bei Shi awkwardly dug a Barbie dream castle out with her toes.
Although they arrived early, they were delayed because of Zhang Mo's proposal, so they were unable to line up immediately and had been waiting in line for an hour.
Finally it was Zhang Mo's turn. Zhang Mo sighed and said, "Boss, I want some pickled cabbage fried rice."
Oh, forget it, since we are here, let’s eat.
Although the proposal was not successful, they still had to eat. Everyone around was eating with relish, and Zhang Mo was also a little hungry.
"OK."
Jian Yunlan added oil to the hot pan, stir-fried the minced meat, added sauerkraut, and stir-fried over high heat. The rich aroma of the sauerkraut fried rice spread instantly.
Soon, a serving of hot sauerkraut fried rice was handed to Zhang Mo.
——The rice grains were distinct, fried until golden and crispy, and soaked with oil and sauce. The tender and juicy minced pork is evenly distributed among the rice, and the gravy permeates it, giving it an attractive luster. The highlight is the pile of light yellow pickled cabbage, which is cut into thin strips. In the steaming hot air, the rich sour aroma and the smell of the pot keep rushing into your nose, making your mouth drool.
Zhang Mo stared at the pickled cabbage with his eyes wide open: "Oh my god..."
What a happy and blessed little boy he must be after taking this bite!
Looking at Zhang Mo who had already got the fried rice, Bei Shi was extremely envious.
She looked at Jian Yunlan, her eyes sparkling: "Boss, I want some pickled cabbage fried rice too!"
Unexpectedly, things turned out to be the opposite of what we expected.
Jian Yunlan opened the empty side dish jar and announced regretfully:
"Today's 100 servings of fried rice have been sold out. Thank you for your support. See you tomorrow at 9 o'clock!"
There was a burst of ghostly howling in the crowd.
"No, no, please tell me this isn't true, please tell me now!"
"I waited in line for an hour. An hour! All I thought about every day was fried rice!"
"I don't care, boss, please don't leave. If you leave, I won't be able to live. Please, if the fried rice is sold out, let me lick the bottom of the pot..."
Not only that, there was a young couple next to them who only bought one portion and started fighting. “This is my fried rice!” “We are all family, why talk about yours and mine, share and share” “No, you can’t touch my fried rice…”
Looking at the couple, everyone sighed that husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but they fly away when they see fried rice.
In addition, 70 to 80 percent of the diners queuing here are office workers who are not in a very good mental state. They are waving their hands in despair and crawling in the dark on the ground, muttering "Boss", "Fried, fried rice", "Haha, great, I don't want to live anyway" as they crawl.
It was like a scene from a zombie siege.
Bei Shi stood there blankly, her lips trembling.
Why was the fried rice sold out when it was her turn?
No, that's not true.
Bei Shi cried and laughed, and murmured in a very sad tone:
"I'm so stupid, really. I only knew to get up at five in the morning so I could line up early. I didn't know the fried rice would be sold out so quickly, and I didn't know there would be so many people buying fried rice. So many people come and go in this world, but my fried rice, my fried rice can no longer be found. Only the taste of pickled cabbage is left..."
Zhang Mo: “…”
As the lucky person who bought the last serving of fried rice, Zhang Mo was the target of countless people's envious and jealous gazes.
He picked up the spoon and was about to scoop a full spoonful into his mouth, but he heard Bei Shi mumbling to herself over and over again.
——What should I do? My girlfriend seems to be broken.
Zhang Mo lowered his head and looked at the fried rice in his hand, which was steaming, oily, and exuding a sour and fragrant aroma.
He raised his head again and looked at Bei Shi, who looked distraught and lifeless in her eyes.
Zhang Mo's hands also began to tremble.
This decision was too difficult and painful for him who had been hungry all night, but...
Love relieves pain, right?
"Bei Shi." Zhang Mo took a deep breath, his tone somewhat tragic.
He knelt on one knee again, holding the fried rice in one hand and the ring in the other: "For so many years, I have something hidden in my heart that I want to tell you."
"Will you spend the rest of your life with me?"
Zhang Mo said: "All the fried rice from now on will be yours to eat."
After a brief lag.
There were screams and applause from the crowd!
"Oh my god, he's actually willing to give up the fried rice he got! Just now, that young couple over there were fighting over the fried rice!"
"Mom, I believe in love again."
"That was Boss Jian's last serving of pickled cabbage fried rice. Oh my god, even I want to marry him~"
The speaker was a muscular man who was about 1.9 meters tall. He covered his face shyly as he spoke.
Everyone: “…”
Someone took out his cell phone to help the happy couple record this extremely precious and sweet moment.
Bei Shi covered her mouth in disbelief.
Hot tears welled up in her eyes, her eyes were full of surprise and happiness, Bei Shi cried and said:
"I, I do!"
Is there any more romantic proposal in the world than this?
Zhang Mo's eyes were also wet with excitement. Bei Shi stretched out her hand, and Zhang Mo happily handed over the ring. Bei Shi was so eager to wear the ring, and he was so happy...
Bei Shi's hand quickly reached over the ring and grabbed the fried rice.
She lowered her head and began to eat voraciously.
The tender pork filling with fat and lean meat is blended into the soft but tough rice. The pork tastes smooth, the fried rice smells crispy, and the pickled cabbage is refreshing. With every bite, the pickled cabbage makes a crunchy sound, and the rich, hot pickled cabbage juice flows all over the mouth, soaking the chewy rice...
Delicious, so delicious!
Bei Shi hissed from the heat and took one bite after another: "Ah! Hiss! Squeak! Squeak! Delicious!"
Zhang Mo: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Seeing this scene, Jian Yunlan was also very moved.
It is really a happy thing that the delicious food he cooked can actually help to bring about a marriage.
Jian Yunlan had already packed up and was about to close the stall, but now he came back on his tricycle and said:
"Bless you, you must be happy!"
"To celebrate, I'll reserve two portions of fried rice for you tomorrow. You don't have to wait in line. Just come to me."
Hearing this, the eyes of the people around became even more envious.
The strong man who just said he was willing to marry Zhang Mo held the hand of another strong man, and the two of them said shyly with red faces: "Boss, we, we are also planning to get married, can you reserve two for us as well?"
The people around them immediately exposed them: "Wang Xiaoshuang, Wang Dashuang, aren't you two brothers?"
"They're pretending to be a couple just to eat fried rice. Don't be fooled, boss."
“How shameless.”
Two strong men: "..."
What's wrong! Can’t brothers get married?
Haven't you heard of orthopedics?
So fashionable!
On the other side, in the blink of an eye, Bei Shi had finished a whole bowl of rice. She and Zhang Mo looked at each other in understanding, feeling extremely moved. She looked at Jian Yunlan with tears in her eyes and said, "Boss, you are such a good person——"
"Can our future child worship you as his godfather?"
Bei Shi and Zhang Mo had a plan in mind.
If the child can ask Jian Yunlan to be his godfather, with this relationship, wouldn't it be easy to make a fortune in the future?
I have to say, the two of them are really a perfect match, they thought alike instantly.
Marriage is a romantic vow for others, but for Bei Shi and Zhang Mo, it is an alliance of shared interests.
Jian Yunlan: “?”
The child worships him as his godfather?
That's a bit outrageous.
"That's not necessary." Jian Yunlan declined. "Then I'll leave first if there's nothing else. See you tomorrow!"
Seeing Jian Yunlan going away, Bei Shi and Zhang Mo became anxious. They chased the car while shouting:
"Boss, this matter can still be discussed, otherwise——"
"Or we can worship you as our godfather, Dad, Dad!"
"Squeak! Squeak! Boss, our wedding wish is to eat one more bowl of fried rice, Boss... No, godfather!"
The monkeys on both sides of the river kept crying.
Everyone: “…”
Let us bless this perfect couple.
.
After closing the stall and returning home, it was still early, so Jian Yunlan took a comfortable nap.
It is a sunny day today, with a gentle breeze. The sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making people feel warm all over.
Jian Yunlan turned over on the big bed and suddenly felt a chill on her back, as if she was being stared at by some ferocious beast.
He opened his eyes suddenly.
Taotie was wearing a loose T-shirt, with his silver hair casually scattered on his shoulders, and his pair of pure golden pupils stared at him quietly.
Jian Yunlan was horrified and suddenly got up from the bed: "I'll go!"
Having a handsome guy standing by the bed and staring at you sounds like a good thing, but Taotie's eyes are scary no matter how you look at them.
"Master Taotie, please don't scare me," Jian Yunlan laughed dryly, "What do you want? Are you hungry?"
Taotie didn't say anything.
Jian Yunlan felt numb all over when he looked at her, and she was a little overwhelmed. She asked cautiously, "How did I make you angry?"
Taotie still didn't speak.
After a while, Jian Yunlan said again: "Old man, speak."
Taotie: “?”
Taotie finally responded. He glared at him and said, "Who are you calling an old thing?!"
Jian Yunlan: "Haha, sorry, I thought you were offline."
What I was thinking was, this glutton, if he doesn't accept my toast, he will be punished.
Taotie's face was gloomy, and he pursed his lips: "I am only 38,512 years old this year."
In terms of the mountain and sea planes, it is very young.
"Yes, you are only 38,512 years old, you are still a baby." Jian Yunlan said in a respectful tone.
Taotie: “…”
That sounds weird.
never mind.
The magnanimous Lord Taotie is too lazy to care about these trivial matters.
"So, Lord Taotie, what exactly do you want to see me about?" Jian Yunlan yawned. Taotie would definitely not stare at him by his bed for no reason.
Taotie hesitated again and again, and even seemed a little embarrassed.
After a moment, he pretended to be nonchalant and said:
"Human, I want to watch TV."
"The magic weapons in the human world are not rare, but I have boundless magical power and have the responsibility to understand the sentiments of the people in the lower world..."
"Anyway, quickly bring over that magic weapon called 'TV'!"
When Jian Yunlan asked, he found out that it was the housekeeper who mentioned it. Recently, there is a fairy tale drama with Taotie as the main character that is on the air. Taotie is very curious and wants to know what kind of image he has in the hearts of the people in the small plane.
But the previous TV was chewed by Taotie himself.
Not very tasty.
After listening to the housekeeper's words, Taotie realized that the magic weapon called "TV" was not for eating, but for watching, just like the Yunhua Mirror, which could condense into phantoms.
"...That's it, right?" Jian Yunlan was a little speechless. He didn't expect Taotie to wake him up just to watch TV. "I'll ask the housekeeper to buy you a mobile phone."
Mobile phones can not only be used to watch TV, but also to chat and play games.
The housekeeper quickly bought the latest model of Apple phone from outside.
The phone turned on and vibrated, emitting music and lights.
Taotie's face was gloomy, as if he was facing a great enemy. His silver hair moved without wind, and fireworks gathered in his palms:
"What kind of monster is this! Human, quickly hide behind me, I will deal with it!"
After realizing that it was just the startup music of the phone, Taotie: “…”
Avert your eyes and pretend nothing happened.
Soon, Taotie was holding his mobile phone and having a lot of fun.
Even our ancestor, who is more than 30,000 years old, cannot resist human technology.
Seeing him concentrating on playing Tetris on his phone, Jian Yunlan couldn't help but sigh.
Taotie is so easy to fool!
Suddenly, Jian Yunlan's phone vibrated. It was a pop-up window of the Kitchen God app:
[You have successfully equipped the first employee with a communication tool ~ taking the first step from a black-hearted boss to a conscientious boss ~]
Jian Yunlan: Who are you calling the black-hearted boss?
[Taotie Favorability +15]
[If you reach a certain level of favorability, you can receive related blind box rewards. Please keep up the good work~ Warm reminder: Favorability can be viewed in the 'Employee List']
What about the favorability system? Jian Yunlan suddenly got excited and clicked on [Employee List]. There was only one column:
【Employee No. 1】
Real name:? ? ?
Race: Taotie (Mountain and Sea Plane)
Age: 38512
Responsibilities: To be determined
Skills: Killing (lv.9999), Devouring (lv.9999), Intimidation (lv.9999), Using Smartphone (lv.1),? ? ? ,? ? ? (To be unlocked)
Life magic weapon: Greed, anger, ignorance and delusion halberd (to be unlocked)
…
Favorability towards you:? ? ?
Jian Yunlan: "..."
In this basic attribute list, there are many question marks, showing 'to be unlocked', and why is the favorability towards him displayed at the bottom still a question mark?
Isn't it said that it can be checked? !
There is a bug in this chef system.
Jian Yunlan was a little speechless and angrily exited the Kitchen God System.
At this moment, the alarm on my cell phone rang.
Before I knew it, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
Gu Tiancheng asked him to visit his home at six o'clock.
"Master, are you going out?" the butler asked respectfully, "Do you need a car?"
Jian Yunlan was about to say no, he could ride a tricycle, but then he thought, the Gu family villa must be very grand, and he was not going to set up a stall, so there was no need to ride a tricycle.
"Okay." Jian Yunlan nodded.
The butler was overjoyed: "Master, it has been a long time since you drove your Maserati, Lamborghini, Lincoln, Maybach, and Ferrari... Xiaobai, Xiaohong, A Zi, and Zhu Sha are all very lonely."
As a conscientious steward, he gave each car a name.
Jian Yunlan: "..."
An hour later.
After getting off the car, Jian Yunlan was welcomed into the house by the Gu family's housekeeper. Gu Tiancheng came over with a smile on his face and held his hand: "Xiao Jian, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come in, come in."
Gu Tiancheng, like a caring and responsible elder, led Jian Yunlan inside and instructed the housekeeper and servants:
"Lao Zhang, go pour tea for Mr. Jian!"
"You young people all love desserts. I asked the chef to make some. I wonder if it suits your taste, haha."
"You had a hard time on the road? Are you hungry? Was there any traffic jam?"
The servants looked at Jian Yunlan with different eyes.
The master is so kind to this young man! He even specially transferred the best chef from Tang Yan just to prepare this dinner.
This is a treatment that even the eldest young master doesn't have!
Jian Yunlan was also somewhat flattered: "Mr. Gu, you are so polite! I didn't prepare any gifts, so I just brought some wontons that I made myself as a token of my appreciation..."
He came in a hurry this time and didn't bring any gifts, so he just went back to his old ways and wrapped some wontons and brought them over, hoping that Gu Tiancheng would like them.
Gu Tiancheng really likes it very much.
He had seen Jian Yunlan's cooking skills. These wontons were firm and small, with thin skin and large fillings. They looked delicious.
Gu Tiancheng's heart was excited and his hands were shaking as he handed the wontons to the housekeeper: "Go, put this box of wontons on display and put it in the valuables safe. No one is allowed to approach!"
Jian Yunlan: "..."
That's a bit exaggerated, brother.
Gu Tiancheng waved his hand, ushered Jian Yunlan into the inner hall, and said happily:
"By the way, Xiao Jian, I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce you to my most important family member—"
Gu Xingzhou, who had been waiting on the side, took a deep breath, stood up with a cold expression, and prepared to show up.
He was just planning to meet the fried rice stall owner. He wanted to see what the other party was capable of to have tricked his father.
Gu Tiancheng said the second half of the sentence with great pride:
"——My dear son, Dahei!"
A sturdy German Shepherd jumped out, its fur shiny and smooth, its body plump and strong. Dahei happily circled around Jian Yunlan and licked his hand.
Gu Xingzhou, who was about to shake hands with the guest, said: "???"
etc.
Dahei is Gu Tiancheng’s beloved son, so what is he?
Is he a dog? ? ? ! !
