Chapter 11 Triple

There was laughter in the box.

Shen Xingzhuo couldn't eat.

He didn't know why he always thought of Lu Ran in this situation.

Just a few days ago, he was just like everyone else present, often forgetting Lu Ran and would only feel annoyed when he saw him.

But now, seeing his family having fun.

He always thinks of the yellow plastic bucket left in the corner.

Shen Xingran is very happy.

He is so sweet that he makes Mrs. Shen laugh.

Shen Xingzhuo watched him eat the small cake on the plate. After a few bites

, he lost interest and pushed it aside.

The same goes for the other food on the plate.

Shen Xingzhuo stared at the small cake for a while, and suddenly asked, "You're not going to eat

it now?" "Huh?" Shen Xingran didn't know why he asked this, and only said, "I'm chatting with my mother now, I'll eat later."

Shen Xingzhuo understood that "later" was just an excuse.

Shen Xingran would not touch the things on the plate.

This is normal. It

was a little abnormal for him to pay attention to the cake.

It's just a piece of cake, just throw it away if you don't want to eat it.

There's no need to care about other foods, you can have them whenever you want.

No one will pay attention to these things.

No matter how good the relationship between Shen Xingzhuo and Shen Xingran is, he will only eat from the same plate with Shen Xingran, but will not eat what Shen Xingran leaves behind.

Because there is no need.

He often throws away food himself.

But now...

the cake in front of him is not to Shen Xingzhuo's taste.

He ate it bit by bit with a frown.

With every bite, his mind would flash back to the day in the store when Lu Ran squinted his eyes while holding French fries in his mouth.

The junk food that can be seen everywhere can make him like a happy little cat.

After finishing the cake, Shen Xingzhuo looked up at the other people at the table.

First, Shen Hongyuan, who maintained his dignity, occasionally instructed Shen Xingran, and ordered the waiter from time to time.

Then there was Mrs. Shen, who was immersed in the joy of celebrating her birthday, laughing and talking constantly.

There was also Shen Xingran, who was clinging to Mrs. Shen's arm and chatting happily.

Shen Xingzhuo knew it was inappropriate.

But his fearless stubbornness suddenly came up, and he asked abruptly: "Is it appropriate not to ask Lu Ran to come over today?"

The voices at the table stopped abruptly.

The faces of the three people were all frozen, and they looked extremely ugly.

Shen Xingzhuo looked at their faces with mixed feelings.

As he thought about it, he probably felt the same as them. At the same time, he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart because of the ugly faces of the three people.

"Why did you mention him!" Shen Hongyuan's shadow had not yet passed, and he didn't want to hear the name Lu Ran at the dinner table.

Mrs. Shen was not much different.

Shen Xingzhuo lost his desire to eat.

He leaned back in his chair, playing with the table knife in his hand, and said lazily: "He will be angry if he finds out?" As

soon as these words came out, Shen Hongyuan and Mrs. Shen's faces were not very good.

Mrs. Shen was even more nervous and said: "He, he, he won't do anything again, right?"

Only Shen Xingran stared at Shen Xingzhuo thoughtfully.

He said: "No one told him, how could he know? He should... not remember his mother's birthday, right?"

Mrs. Shen pulled the corner of her mouth.

She didn't have to invite Lu Ran to her birthday.

But if Lu Ran doesn't remember, he is too heartless.

Shen Xingzhuo was a little bored and left after not staying for long.

Shen Xingran chased him out.

"Brother! Why are you leaving just like that? Mom will be sad." He held Shen Xingzhuo.

Shen Xingzhuo leaned against the car window, lowered his eyes and stared at Shen Xingran, looking at her very carefully.

He suddenly realized that Shen Xingran was not like the child in his dream.

There were too many things hidden in Shen Xingran's eyes, and his mind was too complicated.

But after all, he was his brother whom he had spoiled for more than ten years. Shen Xingzhuo still said softly: "It's okay, she has been angry with me for a long time."

Shen Xingran persuaded him a few more words.

He stared at Shen Xingzhuo, and suddenly asked out of the blue: "Second brother, why did you suddenly mention Lu Ran today?"

Shen Xingzhuo half-closed his eyelids, still looking at Shen Xingran with that nonchalant look.

In the past, he would try to talk to Shen Xingran when he had something on his mind.

But now, Shen Xingzhuo had no desire to chat.

He didn't say much, just said: "I'm just in a bad mood."

Hearing this, Shen Xingran was relieved. Shen

Xingzhuo's relationship with his family is not harmonious.

He has a bad temper.

It is estimated that because he is in a bad mood, he can't bear to see others happy, so he specifically mentioned Lu Ran to annoy people.

"Brother, don't be too tired recently. If you really can't, just go home... If the studio is not open, then don't open it."

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Xingran knew that he had said the wrong thing and felt a little regretful.

But this time Shen Xingzhuo was not angry.

He didn't know what he was thinking, he just nodded casually and got into the car.

Shen Xingran's face changed slightly, not knowing whether Shen Xingzhuo was absent-minded or really ready to go back home to the company.

Shen Xingzhuo didn't see Shen Xingran's expression.

He drove around the street.

It was a little late now, and all the shops were closed.

Only one dessert shop was still open.

Shen Xingzhuo got out of the car and stood outside the store, staring at the cakes in the glass counter.

He stared for a long time until someone inside asked, "What can I do for you?"

Shen Xingzhuo suddenly woke up.

He rubbed his forehead, not understanding what he was doing standing here.

The next day at noon.

Shen Xingzhuo went to the fast food restaurant again.

It was still the time when there were fewer people just after breakfast.

After a while of busy work, Lu Ran was making orders for takeout.

He saw a figure in front of the counter and subconsciously said, "Welcome, what can I do for you?"

He said it but there was no response.

Lu Ran raised his head and saw Shen Xingzhuo's face was green.

Welcome.

These four simple words made Shen Xingzhuo inexplicably unhappy.

"You..."

He wanted to say, why are you telling me all this?

Then he remembered that Lu Ran was working.

Not only would he say this to him, but also to everyone who came to the store.

The unhappiness suddenly became even deeper.

He wanted to say, didn't you recognize me?

But what if he recognized me? His relationship with Lu Ran was not as good as that of a stranger.

At least a stranger would not kill Lu Ran's dog.

Shen Xingzhuo immediately stopped.

He said in a deep voice: "I'm here to eat."

"Oh, order." Lu Ran pointed to the menu.

He didn't understand what Shen Xingzhuo was thinking at all, and he didn't care at all.

Working for a salary every day is his daily routine.

It would be terrible if he didn't have a job.

But he didn't expect Shen Xingzhuo to come here for several days in a row. He

didn't know what he was doing, but he didn't look very smart.

Lu Ran remained wary of the Shen family.

But after the free lunch, he had another impression of Shen Xingzhuo as a "sucker".

Shen Xingzhuo stared at the menu, not knowing what to order.

He had no interest in this kind of fast food.

Usually, when he ate out, he would either go to a chain restaurant or a high-end club.

After hesitating for a long time, he only ordered a serving of French fries.

Lu Ran glanced at him for a while, and suddenly pointed to the sign above his head and said, "That chicken steak is delicious."

- It is said.

Because this thing is super expensive.

"Oh, then give me one." Shen Xingzhuo said.

Lu Ran glanced at him, and pointed to the super expensive steak burger on the menu: "This is delicious too."

- It is also said.

Lu Ran has never eaten it.

But the prices on the entire menu of the fast food restaurant, in Shen Xingzhuo's eyes, can be said to be no difference.

In short: it's not a big deal.

He ordered what Lu Ran said without thinking, and didn't find out why Lu Ran recommended it.

After ordering, Shen Xingzhuo still stood in front of the counter without moving.

It was Lu Ran who reminded him: "Find a seat aside, you are blocking others."

Shen Xingzhuo choked for a long time.

It's good that the second young master Shen went out without asking others to make way.

He never realized that he would block others.

He hesitated and found a seat near the counter and sat down.

Time passed by.

Shen Xingzhuo sat in his seat, and glanced at the boy busy behind the counter.

Several waves of people came one after another.

Today is the weekend, and there are a lot of takeout orders. The boy was lying on the counter, ordering takeout paper bags one by one.

Maybe because he gets up early and works late every day, he yawned several times after a while.

The meal was ready in a short while.

Lu Ran was so sleepy that he was too lazy to serve Shen Xingzhuo.

But he was always on guard in his mind.

Shen Xingzhuo has a bad temper, and who knows if he will start to make trouble because of one of his behaviors.

Maybe he came to the store these two days just to catch him doing something wrong and force him to resign.

Shen Xingzhuo saw the tray on the counter.

He thought of how Lu Ran delivered the meal to him a few days ago, and subconsciously stood up and stretched out his arm to take it himself.

But Lu Ran was still one step ahead of him and came out of the counter with the tray.

Put the tray in front of him and fold the napkin.

Shen Xingzhuo's discomfort came up again.

In his mind, one moment he saw Shen Xingran sitting at the table and eating casually, and the next moment he saw Lu Ran saying "Welcome" to him.

His anger surged up in an instant.

Shen Xingzhuo said with a little anger: "Do you have to do this part-time job?"

Lu Ran raised his eyebrows and lowered his eyes to look at Shen Xingzhuo at the table.

He was wondering why the second young master of the Shen family always came over, and it turned out that he was waiting for him here.

Lu Ran stood up slowly, looked at Shen Xingzhuo and asked: "What else? Who will give me money if I don't work?"

"Didn't mom give you money?" Shen Xingzhuo asked.

"Yeah." Lu Ran smiled, "She still owes me 1 billion."

"So you're just going to stay here and be a waiter? Say welcome to people every day, and then carry plates to people's tables?" Shen Xingzhuo started to talk without thinking.

He didn't know what he wanted to say, but he just didn't want to see Lu Ran like this.

"Young Master." Lu Ran didn't get angry at all.

"Don't look down on me." He said, "This is what most people do every day. Without people like us, would you rich people just sit and wait for air to eat?"

"That's not what I meant!" Shen Xingzhuo was a little irritable.

Lu Ran looked at him quietly.

Shen Xingzhuo usually didn't care when he got angry. When he was really angry, he even ignored Shen Xingran.

But this time, when he looked up and met Lu Ran's dark eyes, he suddenly became silent.

He turned his head, took two deep breaths, and actively suppressed his anger.

He asked Lu Ran: "How much salary did the boss here pay you? I'll give you three times, and you don't have to work here."

"Oh." Lu Ran was a little surprised.

In his last life, when the Shen family forced him to flee everywhere, he didn't do this.

"Okay." Lu Ran said.

Shen Xingzhuo finally felt better.

"But..."

"But what?" Shen Xingzhuo asked.

Lu Ran smiled at him and said, "But you, Second Young Master Shen, have no credibility with me. You have to advance my salary to me before I resign."

He showed Shen Xingzhuo his Alipay payment code.
