When the food arrived, Li Cheng barely touched his chopsticks. Meng Jianghong also ate with little appetite. Both of them looked troubled.
The proprietress walked past their table several times and saw that the food on the table was basically uneaten, so she thought that the food today was not to their liking.
So the proprietress went into the kitchen herself and made them a seafood dumpling soup.
After seeing this dish, Li Cheng suddenly felt hungry. He poured the dumpling soup into a small bowl and ate it mouthful by mouthful with a spoon...
Meng Jianghong also served herself some soup and drank it. The proprietress smiled secretly when she saw this.
After drinking two bowls of soup, Li Cheng felt much better. He wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin and said, "Now, I think I understand why Zhang Dahe and her are so confused."
Meng Jianghong looked up at him and asked, "Why?"
Li Cheng glanced at the proprietress standing behind the bar, then turned around and said, "Do you still remember Dahe's help at the provincial branch?"
"Remember, others stayed for three months, but he stayed for a year."
Li Cheng nodded and said, "During this period, I saw him once when I went to the provincial capital. The place where he invited me to dinner was also called Fanmili. At that time, they also had a seafood dumpling soup. Zhang Dahe said that this was the boss lady's best soup------"
Meng Jianghong's eyes widened when she heard this. "You mean, they were in the provincial capital..."
Li Cheng didn't say yes or no, but just said, "One thing is certain, she moved the restaurant to our place, it must be related to Zhang Dahe."
Meng Jianghong was even more stunned. She hadn't expected things to be so complicated. But she was sure Li Cheng must know more than she did, so she looked at him as if the answer was written on his face.
Li Cheng turned his head to look at the people eating in this small restaurant, and thought that the business here was good. If the proprietress refused to sever her relationship with Zhang Dahe, would he have to find a way to ruin the business here?
Li Cheng knew that the matter between Zhang Dahe and the proprietress was their private matter, and he and Meng Jianghong had no obligation to interfere.
However, Zhang Dahe's mother once found Li Cheng and asked him to take good care of Dahe and find a serious partner for him.
It was only after Dahe's mother came to Li Cheng that Li Cheng began to pay attention to Zhang Dahe. As a result, Li Cheng discovered Zhang Dahe's secret.
Poor parents in the world! No matter how deep Zhang Dahe hid his feelings, his mother still found out about him.
This is the nature of a mother, her mind is all on her son.
Li Cheng was grateful for the difficulties faced by Daha's mother, so he decided to take care of this trivial matter.
Thinking about all the cases of people forcibly breaking up couples in history, Li Cheng felt that he was doing something that was not worth the effort. However, he decided to just break up the couple so as to avoid the trouble of dealing with them later.
"Sister Meng, talk to her later. After all, you are both women, so you should be easier to talk to."
Meng Jianghong glared and pointed at herself, then pointed at Li Cheng and said, "I talk to her? Li Cheng, you can also think of it, it's because I am also a woman that I know how hurtful this matter is..."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengchu smiled and said, "Sister Meng, have you been hurt too? Didn't you say that you and your husband were first loves?"
Meng Jianghong knew she had spoken out of turn, so she angrily yelled at Li Cheng, "Get out!"
Li Cheng stood up with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll get out."
Meng Jianghong then pleaded, "What should I do if you leave?"
Li Cheng deliberately ignored her, then walked to another table of people eating, leaned over and said something to them.
Then, Meng Jianghong saw that the people at that table stood up, paid their bills and left. The proprietress also saw this and looked at Li Cheng in surprise.
Li Cheng had already walked towards the next table of people eating...
Just like that, the several tables of guests who were eating here left, and Li Cheng brought in the "Open" sign hanging outside the restaurant and closed the door.
All this happened under the astonished eyes of Meng Jianghong and the proprietress.
Li Cheng sat back down next to Meng Jianghong, thinking to himself, "What the hell am I doing? I'm just destroying someone's job."
Meng Jianghong didn't know what Li Cheng was trying to do, but Li Cheng's actions were indeed beyond her expectations.
Some of the guests at those tables were from the branch, and if Li Cheng asked them to leave, they would definitely listen to Li Cheng. However, there were two tables of guests who were not from the branch, but they also left, which made Meng Jianghong feel a little strange.
"What do you want to do?" The cafeteria was very quiet, so Meng Jianghong asked in a low voice.
Li Cheng just sat there quietly, as if waiting for something.
The waitress at the restaurant wanted to clear the table, but the proprietress stopped her and walked towards Li Cheng...
After she came over, she pulled over a chair and sat between Li Cheng and Meng Jianghong.
Then, she looked at Li Cheng and said, "Li Cheng? Right?"
Li Cheng nodded at her. The proprietress looked at Meng Jianghong and said, "You are the director of Dahe, right?"
Meng Jianghong habitually stretched out her hand and said, "My last name is Meng, the same as Meng Jiangnu."
The proprietress shook her hand and said, "My name is Du Xue, the Du of azalea."
Meng Jianghong nodded.
The woman named Du Xue turned to look at Li Cheng and said, "You've been here for dinner many times, but today we're officially getting to know each other!"
Li Cheng didn't say anything, and Meng Jianghong didn't want to pretend to be mute, so she just hummed twice.
Du Xue looked at the food on the table and said, "Is today's food not to your taste? I see you barely ate any. Do you want me to make you a new portion?"
Meng Jianghong quickly said, "Don't bother you, we're full."
"Oh, then forget about today's bill! Come often in the future, and I will definitely treat you well."
Meng Jianghong wasn't used to Du Xue being so polite. She quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, we'll just... pay the bill later."
Du Xue smiled and looked at Li Cheng again, saying, "Li Cheng, tell my guests that the boss lady has something to do today and wants to close early. Excuse me, what exactly do I want?"
Li Cheng glanced at her and said, "You do have something to worry about, and it's a big deal."
Du Xue raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then tell me, what's the big deal about me?"
Li Cheng held up two fingers and said, "Two things. One is that your business will get better and better. The other is that your business will get worse and worse. You choose!"
When Li Cheng said this, there was a sense of gangsterism in his voice.
But what he didn't expect was that Du Xue still had a smiling face and said, "It seems to be the same thing! It's all related to my business."
Li Cheng snorted and said, "It's okay if you understand it this way."
