Chapter 66
The sudden suspension of business left the diners of Kangle Boxed Lunch a little confused.
87 Pretty Baby: [Ah... What's going on? Why are you suddenly suspending business? ]
Wen Liuliu: [Oh my god! It’s late at night. Did I see it wrong? The business is suspended for five days...]
Sweet and handsome guy: [Is five days too long? Boss Kangle, how about we just take a break for two days~]
Since its opening, Kangle Box Restaurant has never stopped operating regardless of wind or rain. Suddenly, the announcement that it would suspend business for five days caused diners to be a little worried.
Quitting sugar ing: [Boss Kangle, did something happen? I hope it’s not a big deal. ]
Zei Xiaojian: [Maybe it’s because Boss Kangle is sick. The flu is pretty severe recently. If he’s sick, he should take a good rest.]
The plate is empty: [I hope Mr. Kang Le can take care of himself, not work too hard, have a good rest, and come back healthy to cook more delicious food for us. ]
For a while, the comment section was full of people asking Chen Kangle to take care of his health.
Chen Kangle came back from washing up and saw these comments. She was a little touched and a little funny. She quickly explained in the comment area: [I am not sick. I temporarily stopped business because I want to take a break and go travel for a few days.]
Seeing that Chen Kangle denied being sick, everyone was relieved. Although no one wanted Kangle lunch box to stop operating, they also thought that Chen Kangle had never had a rest and should take a rest, otherwise long-term fatigue might wear down his body.
Flowers bloom and grass withers: [It’s not that I’m sick, since Boss Kangle wants to travel, then let’s go out and have a good time. ]
Always yearning for freedom: [Although I am a little sad to suspend business, it is right for Mr. Kang Le to choose to rest. Mr. Kang Le is busy in the kitchen every day and he really needs a rest.]
Pepper is not spicy: [Boss Kangle, you should have a good rest and don't worry about us. We can get through the five days in a short time. We will wait for you to come back.]
Dragon Slayer: [Although I am very sad to see the Kangle Box Restaurant suspend business, we cannot force the boss to work 365 days a year and cook delicious food for us every day.]
In addition to the diners, the staff of the Kangle Box Restaurant were also very reluctant to leave. They were used to coming to the Kangle Box Restaurant to work every day, and suddenly they were asked to take a five-day break, and they were a little overwhelmed.
But when they learned that Chen Kangle was going to travel, everyone was happy for her and thought that traveling was a good thing. They also hoped that Chen Kangle could go out and relax.
The next day, Kangle Lunch Box was unusually busy, and every diner wanted to have another meal before Kangle Lunch Box closed.
"The Kanglehe Restaurant will be closed for the next five days, so I have to come here for a meal today. I've already made up my mind. I'm going to order a few more dishes and eat my fill all at once."
"I'm going to eat more today too. If my appetite is big enough, I'd like to eat five days' worth in one day."
"Originally I was not free today, but I heard that the Kanglehe Restaurant would be closed for a few days starting tomorrow, so I immediately took a leave and came here for a meal. After this meal, I will have to wait five days for the next meal."
In addition to the large number of guests today, each guest also ate a lot. Guests who usually eat two meat dishes and one vegetable dish ate three meat dishes and two vegetable dishes today, and guests who usually eat three meat dishes and two vegetable dishes ate four meat dishes and two vegetable dishes today.
So on that day, the sales of Kangle Box Restaurant doubled compared to usual.
After a busy day, Chen Kangle lay in bed. She had booked a flight for tomorrow afternoon at around 1:00 p.m., so she could get up a little later tomorrow.
Grandma Chen was the most excited. This was her first time out of the province and her first time on a plane. She was a little nervous in her excitement. Grandma Chen got up early in the morning. She looked through her luggage again and again, silently repeating the things that Chen Kangle told her to bring, for fear of forgetting to bring anything.
Grandma Chen checked it five or six times before she closed the suitcase with confidence.
Seeing Chen Kangle still sleeping, Grandma Chen was very relieved. Since he started selling boxed lunches, Chen Kangle had been getting up early almost every day. It was finally a day when he could get up late.
When going out to buy breakfast, Grandma Chen always had a smile on her face.
"Grandma Chen, why are you so happy today? Is there any good news?"
Everyone could see that Grandma Chen was in a good mood.
Grandma Chen said proudly: "Our Kang Le is taking me to travel to another province today. I'm going to take a plane later. A big plane."
Although Grandma Chen always said that she didn't want to travel and asked Chen Kangle not to spend money indiscriminately, she was eager to tell the whole world that her granddaughter wanted to take her on a trip.
"Grandma Chen, you are so lucky to have a filial granddaughter who is not only good at cooking and can make a lot of money, but is also so kind to you. I envy her."
In the past, everyone in the village thought that Grandma Chen had a miserable life. Both her son and husband were gone, leaving only herself and her granddaughter to depend on each other. Now everyone in the village envies Grandma Chen. Her granddaughter makes a lot of money by opening a boxed rice restaurant, and she also knows how to care for her grandmother.
When Grandma Chen heard others praising her granddaughter, her heart was filled with joy.
On the other side, Xiang Yunting's alarm clock rang, and he got up from the bed instantly as if by reflex, and he set the alarm clock for 7:30 in the morning. He got up at 7:30 every morning, washed up, had breakfast, and then went to work at the Kangle Box Hotel. He was used to this kind of life.
Today, he got up at 7:30 as usual, washed up, had breakfast, and rode his electric bike to the Kanglehe Restaurant. On the way, he always felt that something was a little strange today, but he couldn't remember what was strange.
After riding for a few minutes, we arrived at the Kanglehe Hotel.
Xiang Yunting saw Lin Huiling was already at the door, he greeted her happily: "Sister Huiling, good morning! You are one step faster than me again today."
Because Lin Huiling doesn't know how to ride an electric bike, she gets up early every day and walks to the Kangle Box Restaurant. Today, she got up early as usual and walked to the Kangle Box Restaurant. When she arrived at the door of the restaurant, she saw a paper saying that the restaurant was temporarily closed. She suddenly remembered that the restaurant was closed today and it was their holiday.
"Oh my! I forgot I don't have to go to work today." Lin Huiling knocked her head speechlessly.
Going to work every day has become a habit for them, and they haven't reacted yet to the sudden vacation.
"I am so eager to go to work." Lin Huiling complained to herself.
After taking a look at the four big words "Temporarily Closed" posted on the door of the Box Food Restaurant, Lin Huiling couldn't help but laugh at herself. She might be the most hardworking person in the world at work.
Others might stay at home and sleep in during holidays, but she gets up early to go to work during holidays.
When Lin Huiling was about to leave, she saw Xiang Yunting riding an electric bike and parked in front of the restaurant's entrance. She chuckled, and it turned out that she was not the only one who was desperate to go to work.
"Good morning, Xiao Xiang, you're here to work too!" Lin Huiling tried not to laugh.
Xiang Yunting seemed to be in a good mood as well. "Well, I went out early today on purpose, but I didn't expect to be one step slower than Sister Huiling. Sister Huiling is still the most active."
Lin Huiling couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahahahahahaha..."
Then he pointed at the "Temporarily Closed" note at the door and said, "Xiao Xiang, you must have fallen asleep. Did you forget that you don't have to go to work today?"
Xiang Yunting looked at the "Temporarily Closed" note at the door and suddenly realized, "Damn, I really forgot, completely forgot! As soon as the alarm rang in the morning, I hurriedly got up, packed up, had breakfast, and came to work."
"I'm speechless. I'm so eager to come to work even during holidays. I guess bosses all over the world like employees like me." Xiang Yunting himself found it funny. How could someone love going to work so much?
Then he glanced at Lin Huiling and said in a mean way, "Sister Huiling, have you forgotten too?"
Lin Huiling: "I'm used to it. I'm used to getting up early and coming to work, so I walked over to work without realizing it."
"Hahahahahaha, it seems everyone is equally stupid..." Xiang Yunting laughed heartily.
The Kangle Box Restaurant was temporarily closed, but its employees had already gathered at the door early to prepare for work. Xiang Yunting and Lin Huiling both laughed at the funny scene.
When they were laughing happily, Zhao Xiaodai passed by on her electric bike and saw Lin Huiling and Xiang Yunting standing at the door of the lunch box restaurant. She shouted to them, "Hey, today is a holiday, why are you still here?"
"We forgot that we don't have to go to work today." The two answered almost in unison.
Zhao Xiaodai couldn't help but laugh. "It's normal. We are used to coming to work every day. I almost forgot today. If my daughter hadn't reminded me, I might have come to work too."
This morning, Zhao Xiaodai also got up early and prepared to pack up and go to work. Her daughter asked her, "Mom, what are you going to do?"
Zhao Xiaodai replied: "Mom has to go to work!"
Daughter: "Mom, have you forgotten that the Boxed Rice Restaurant is closed today?"
Zhao Xiaodai just realized that the Box Rice Restaurant was closed today and she didn't have to go to work.
Yang Chunxia walked out of the convenience store and saw Xiang Yunting and the other three standing in front of the Heyu Restaurant.
"The Box Food Restaurant is not open today, so why are you still coming to it? Do you like working so much? Otherwise, why don't you all come to work at my convenience store? I just happen to be short of people to organize the goods." Yang Chunxia said jokingly.
Xiang Yunting waved his hands quickly, "No, no, we don't like working, we don't like working at all."
They don't like working, but they like working in the Kanglehe Restaurant.
"Sister Xia, you asked us to work at your convenience store. Do you have delicious boxed lunches for work? If so, we can consider working at your place." Lin Huiling also said jokingly.
Yang Chunxia held a bottle of Coke and said, "There is no delicious lunch box, but there is delicious Coke."
When talking about working meals, Xiang Yunting and the others instantly became depressed.
Since they started working at the Kangle Box Restaurant, they have been eating breakfast and dinner at the Kangle Box Restaurant, and can have very delicious work meals every day.
Now that the Kangle Box Restaurant has suspended business, they no longer have their work meals. Xiang Yunting began to think about what he would eat in the next five days.
Chen Kangle woke up at 9:30. It had been a long time since he had slept in. Maybe because he slept too long, Chen Kangle felt a little sore in the waist and back when he got up. He felt much better after getting up and moving around for a while.
She had already planned to pack her things, have lunch and leave for the airport. She planned to leave early to avoid being in a hurry.
You have to dress nicely when flying. Grandma Chen has already changed into new clothes. These are the new clothes that Chen Kangle bought for her during this year's Spring Festival. She has been reluctant to wear them for fear that they would get dirty or torn.
This was Grandma Chen’s first time going to the airport and her first time on a plane, so she couldn’t help feeling a little nervous.
Are there a lot of people at the airport? Will the plane be very shaking when flying? Grandma Chen kept thinking about various questions and was worried about whether she would be late.
"Kangle, should we go earlier? What if we miss the plane?"
"If there's a traffic jam on the road later, the plane will fly away without waiting for us."
Chen Kangle recalled that when she first took a plane in college, she was also a little anxious, always worried about being late and missing the plane. She remembered that she went to the airport early because she was worried about traffic jams, and stayed at the airport for a long time before boarding the plane.
"Grandma, don't worry, I have calculated the time. I won't be late even if there is a traffic jam." Chen Kangle tried to comfort his grandmother so that she wouldn't be too anxious.
At half past eleven, Chen Kangle was on his way to the airport, but the Internet was unusually lively.
The comment section of "Kangle Lunch Box" is full of diners missing Kangle Lunch Box.
Wendy was: [Who knows? Normally at this time I would have lined up at the front door of the Boxed Rice Restaurant to buy food, but today I can only wash vegetables and cook for myself at home.]
Fish who loves to eat cats: [Stop talking. My heart starts to bleed when I think about not having any lunch boxes for the next five days. How am I going to get through this?]
I feel uncomfortable if I don’t drink: [Noon is usually the happiest time for me. I work hard every day and wait to eat delicious lunch after work. Today, I don’t have a lunch box to eat, and I don’t feel like going to work.]
DD Nothing Happened: [Comrades, Kangle Bento is closed these few days. Where are you going to eat? Can you recommend me a cheap and delicious restaurant? ]
The shrimp head is going to be: [The cheap ones are not as good as the Kangle lunch boxes, and the expensive ones are not as good as the Kangle lunch boxes. I don’t know where to find lunch boxes that are as cheap and delicious as the Kangle lunch boxes. Anyway, there are only five days, so everyone can just eat whatever they want, and it will be over in five days. ]
Refuse to pick wild vegetables: [I just got off work and rode my electric bike to eat at the Kanglehe Restaurant. Halfway through the ride, I remembered that the Kanglehe Restaurant was closed today. I was speechless! ]
Drink milk to grow taller: [Hahahahahahaha… Me too, as soon as I got off work I told my colleagues “Let’s go get a box lunch” and they laughed at me saying I had Alzheimer’s.]
It’s bustling online, and offline is not lonely either.
At this time, Tian Mengzhuo was at the door of Kangle Box Hotel, looking at the note at the door.
"Our store is temporarily closed from Monday to Friday and will resume normal business on Saturday."
Tian Mengzhuo stared blankly for a minute and said speechlessly, "Why did they suspend business when I came?"
Tian Mengzhuo lives in a residential area south of Jiangdong New District. Yesterday, she saw a video on a short video platform that Kangle Boxed Meals won the first place in the first round of voting for "Searching for Food in Haishi". She thought that a restaurant that won the first place must be good. It just so happened that this boxed meal restaurant was not far from her residential area, so she decided to come over and try it.
As a result, she didn't expect that this box lunch restaurant had suspended business and her trip was in vain.
"Little girl, the Hedian restaurant is closed today. It will be closed for the next few days. Please come back in a few days."
Yang Chunxia has seen many customers at the entrance of the convenience store today who were unaware that Kangle Box Lunch had suspended business. These people came here because they heard that Kangle Box Lunch had won first place in a food event.
“Thank you, Auntie!”
Tian Mengzhuo thought that in a few days he might have forgotten about this lunch box restaurant.
In addition to new customers like Tian Mengzhuo who came here because of its reputation, there were also some old customers from a nearby construction site. They temporarily forgot that the Kangle Box Restaurant had suspended business and came here unconsciously after work.
"Alas, we workers are the worst hit! We have been eating Kangle lunch boxes since they set up a stall at the entrance of the construction site. We have become accustomed to eating them every day. It's strange that we don't get used to the sudden absence of Kangle lunch boxes."
The workers who came over all turned and left with a dejected look on their faces.
More and more customers came here because of its reputation, but they all left disappointed after seeing the sign saying "temporarily closed".
Many people went to the comment section of "Kangle Lunch" to complain.
Garfield: [What’s going on with this box lunch restaurant? I saw it won first place, so it temporarily stopped operating. Is it because they are worried that the food is too delicious and will scare us?]
Guo Er Er met: [I am really speechless. I just found it yesterday and wanted to go there today to taste it, but they said it was closed. I went there in vain.]
Girls, please go this way: [This box lunch restaurant has just won the first place and has suspended business. Is it afraid that we new customers will come to eat here? It is not because the taste is not worthy of the first place, so it dare not open the door for us to eat, for fear that its true colors will be exposed. 】
When the diners of Kangle lunch boxes saw someone questioning the taste of the food, they became anxious.
Teng Diudiu: [Hahahahaha, this is the first time I see someone say that our Kangle lunch boxes taste average. Hahahaha, I'm really disappointed! ]
Salted Fish is trying to turn over: [Kangle Box Lunch is afraid of its true colors being exposed. Are you kidding me? I'm just afraid that you will fall in love with Kangle Box Lunch right after eating it, and then you'll cry and say you want to eat Kangle Box Lunch every day. ]
The wheat is ripe and I wake up: [Our boss of Kangle lunch box is just out traveling, you newcomers, don't worry, good food is never too late, come back in a few days, and you will definitely not say such things after you have eaten Kangle lunch box. ]
In addition to the old customers of Kangle Box Lunch, some new customers also spoke for Kangle Box Lunch Restaurant.
Want to pinch cheek flesh: [You are too slow, I got it on the day when Kangle lunch box won first place, and I went to eat it the next day, and I was lucky enough to drink the very delicious loofah shrimp soup. ]
Beautiful female star arrives: [Luckily I went to eat yesterday and caught up with the last day, otherwise I would have missed it like you. The taste of the Kangle lunch box is unquestionable, it is really delicious. I plan to go there to eat after the Kangle lunch box restaurant resumes business. ]
Xiaoyuzizi99: [I know that everyone must be a little angry if they didn't eat the food after making such a hard trip, but there is no need to question the taste of the Kangle lunch box. Although it was my first time to eat the Kangle lunch box yesterday, I fell in love with it after just one try. I hope everyone will not miss the Kangle lunch box, otherwise you will really regret it. ]
There are many messages from new customers in the latest comments of "Kangle Boxed Lunch", almost all of whom came here to taste the food after hearing the news that Kangle Boxed Lunch won first place.
Kangle Lunch Box has attracted so many new customers even before it started promoting the event with the advertising resources it obtained in the "Searching for Food in Haishi". If it waits until there are splash screen ads and large-screen ads in shopping malls, it may attract even more customers.
Yun Niannian: [It seems that the first prize opening screen advertisement and the large screen advertisement in the mall will not be promoted until Saturday. By then, there will be Kangle lunch box advertisements all over the line and offline, which will definitely attract many people to Kangle lunch box to consume.]
Uncle Seven Bai Yueguang: [There are so many people here even before the promotion starts. What will happen when the promotion starts? The Kangle Box Restaurant will probably be packed. I am a little scared just thinking about it.]
Good night, lead singer:
Don't be afraid. Our goal in voting for Kangle Box Lunch to win first place is to attract more customers to Kangle Box Lunch Restaurant and make Kangle Box Lunch Restaurant earn more money. When we have money, Kangle Box Lunch Restaurant will open many branches, and it will be more convenient for us to eat lunch boxes in the future. 】
While everyone was leaving messages, Chen Kangle had already arrived at the airport. The airport in Hai City is very large, so Chen Kangle took his grandmother to the self-service ticket machine to check in, and then went to the corresponding counter to check in luggage.
The queue for baggage check-in was very long, so Chen Kangle asked her grandmother to sit on a bench nearby and wait for her. She specifically told her grandmother not to walk around because the airport was very large and she was worried that her grandmother would get lost.
It took about fifteen minutes to check in the luggage. When Chen Kangle returned, he found that his grandmother was missing. He looked left and right but there was no sign of her.
The airport is so big and it was my grandma’s first time at the airport, so it was very easy for her to get lost.
Fortunately, Chen Kangle had equipped his grandmother with a mobile phone so that she could call him when she had something to do. Chen Kangle called her immediately and the call was connected after a while.
"Grandma, where are you now?"
Just as she said a word, she heard her grandmother calling her from not far away: "Kangle, I'm here."
Chen Kangle ran over quickly, "Grandma, where did you go just now?"
"Grandma just went to the bathroom."
While Chen Kangle was queuing to check in his baggage, Grandma Chen suddenly wanted to go to the toilet. She didn't want to trouble Chen Kangle, so she went to find the toilet by herself. After walking around for a while, she found the toilet, but when she came out of the toilet, she found that she didn't know how to get back to her original place.
But Grandma Chen is not stupid. She asks for directions when she doesn’t know the way.
Just then a young man walked by and Grandma Chen went up to him and asked him about the baggage. The young man was very enthusiastic and worried that Grandma Chen couldn't find the way, so he personally took Grandma Chen to the place where the baggage was checked.
"Kang Le, it was this young man who brought me back. He is a good man."
Chen Kangle was so anxious just now that he didn't even notice the young man next to his grandmother.
The young man was about 1.85 meters tall, with fair skin that all girls envied. His facial features were handsome with a hint of sharpness. He was wearing a black suit and looked very tall.
"Thank you for helping my grandma." Chen Kangle thanked politely.
Young man: "You're welcome. I'm just passing by. If nothing else, I'll leave first."
The young man's voice was deep, rich and magnetic.
"Well, thank you!" Chen Kangle nodded.
As soon as the young man left, Grandma Chen said, "This young man is really good-looking and a very nice person, but it's a pity that he already has a partner."
Just now, when the young man was bringing her back, Grandma Chen revealed the matchmaking nature of the elderly. When she saw a young and high-quality man, she couldn't help asking him if he had a partner. The young man answered without hesitation that he did.
