Chapter 39 Needs Cleaning Up
Lu Feng has always felt that Zhou Hai's success is no accident. From the small restaurant he inherited from his parents 20 years ago to the large chain hotel today, it is inseparable from his unique way of thinking.
He has been working for Zhou Hai since he was young, so he can be said to know his boss very well.
Zhou Hai is stubborn and opinionated. Every time he comes up with an idea, it's always weird and almost no one will support him.
He doesn't care. He is mysteriously confident and will "go his own way". But it is this "stubbornness" that allows him to achieve unexpected success, stand out among many restaurants, and develop into a nationally famous hotel chain.
However, he didn't expect Zhou Hai's ideas to be so weird.
"Isn't that clear? Song Xuhong and Xiaoyang are definitely not a couple. Song Xuhong's sexual orientation has always been female, so the two of them are probably just partners and friends. We can't just assume Xiaoyang likes men because she likes men. And last time, I only said that they looked familiar, and I didn't confirm that they were a couple."
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Lu Feng thought Zhou Hai was deeply shocked and was about to find words to comfort him, but who knew -
"It's over, it's over. I told Mrs. Lin before that Xiaoyang was going to study in Japan and wouldn't be back for three years. Is it too late to change my mind now?"
"..."Is this the point? "Mountain, and. 氵, タ"
"You said I didn't even leave a phone number, so they definitely won't wait for me. How about I call back and tell Mrs. Lin that I've suddenly decided not to study abroad?"
“…”
"What's going on? If you miss Lin Qiyuan, can you find someone better?"
"..." Didn't you dislike Lin Qiyuan before?
"I think..." Lu Feng still reminded, "Even if the deal fails, there is still righteousness. Mrs. Lin is not a fool. It's best for us not to do anything!"
"That's true, but my Zhou Yang was clearly winning at the starting line, and I dragged him down. How can I be a real father?"
"..." Your son has run away from home, doesn't that mean he doesn't treat you as his biological father? Lu Feng complained in his heart.
Zhou Hai tossed and turned all night, but finally decided to listen to Lu Feng's advice and not make the call.
He was not the only one tossing and turning, Lin Qiyuan also suffered from insomnia.
Incense, lavender tea, and half a sleeping pill were all unable to make him sleepy. He had nothing on his mind, but he just couldn't fall asleep.
Only Zhou Yang, the central figure of the topic, is still heartless, eating and sleeping soundly.
The next morning, Lin Qiyuan, with slight dark circles under his eyes, sent a WeChat message to Li Baiyu: How to remove dark circles?
Li Baiyu, who was hugging his wife and children on the warm bed, heard the WeChat notification sound, and drowsily opened the Li family group - a loving family. He flipped through a few pages and found the content he wanted. He forwarded it to his Dogecoin boss who exploited him on Saturday, was incompetent, and cruel.
[Surprise! Woke up with dark circles? What to do? Five tips to get rid of them]
Lin Qiyuan read it carefully, and then took a bottle of a cream-like substance called "Zhexia" from a pile of cosmetics on the table in the public toilet.
Lin Qiyuan applied the product to the corners of his eyes according to the instructions, then looked in the mirror again to make sure that his dark circles were indeed covered before he began to change his clothes.
When he is at home in Bayview Court or when he goes out, he usually dresses casually.
Although there are many clothes at home, most of them are suits of the same style, which looks too solemn.
If you are going on a blind date, you should dress more formally!
But wouldn't it look old-fashioned if he was too serious? There was already a five, six, seven, or eight year age difference between them.
After searching through his wardrobe from beginning to end, Lin Qiyuan finally found a white casual jacket that suited him.
Since graduating and starting to work, Lin Qiyuan has never worn white clothes again.
He was young at that time and a rookie in the film and television industry. He was unwilling to rely on his father's fame, so when talking about business, he did not let people know that he was Lin Guodong's son.
For fear of being looked down upon by others, he always dressed in an old-fashioned way, so that at least from the outside he would appear steady and reliable.
After his career developed, he was no longer young and lively colors like white were no longer suitable for him.
Now that I'm wearing it and looking at myself in the mirror, it does seem to make me look younger than if I wore clothes of other colors.
Breakfast was made by the nanny at home, and it was very much to the family's taste. Lin Qiyuan has always been picky, but he is used to eating it at home.
Mother Lin came down from upstairs and saw a man in white clothes sitting at the dining table. She almost thought that there were guests at home.
Among the guests who often come to the house, Cheng Fei is the most flamboyant one, who likes to wear white clothes with embroidery.
"Xiao Fei" stopped when he touched the other party's "slippers".
His son is a mysophobe and never lets anyone touch his shoes. Once, a guest accidentally wore his slippers. Lin Qiyuan wrapped them up with toilet paper and threw them away directly, so as not to let the other person's foot odor get on his delicate fingertips.
The one who looks like his son from the back except for his clothes must be Lin Qiyuan!
"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and eat!" Lin Guodong gulped down a bowl of porridge, and when he looked up, he saw his wife standing behind his son in a daze.
“…Oh, here it comes.”
Lin Qiyuan was on pins and needles while eating this meal. When Lin's mother came to see him for the thirteenth time, he finally finished dinner and went upstairs.
Mother Lin patted Lin Guodong's thigh and asked with a gossipy look, "Did you notice that your son is very different today?"
Lin Guodong wrinkled his nose, slightly protesting the fact that his thigh was hurt by the slap, and asked doubtfully, "Isn't that normal? Soy milk, sandwich, and egg, the usual three!"
"What's normal about that?" Mother Lin slapped her thigh and explained, "Our son thinks white is understated and hasn't worn it in a hundred or eighty years! He suddenly put it on today, and he's going on a blind date, don't you think it's strange?"
This time, Mother Lin slapped her thigh even harder. Father Lin's face twisted in pain, and he grumbled aggrievedly, "How should I know he was going on a blind date today? Who was it with? You didn't even tell me! Besides, why would he buy white clothes if he doesn't wear white?"
"I bought the white clothes. They've been in his closet for two or three years. This is the first time he's wearing them. Didn't I tell you about the blind date? It's with the girl from the Yan family! No way, there's no way I didn't tell you. You must have forgotten and are putting the blame on me!"
Mother Lin buried her head in drinking porridge, and her voice became weaker and weaker. She might have been immersed in the excitement of having a daughter-in-law last night and couldn't help herself. She had a long video call with her best friend in the middle of the night and indeed forgot to say it.
Father Lin knew his wife's bad habits. Since she only treated him this way, he didn't bother to argue with her. He asked, "Did you decide on this while you were having afternoon tea with Mrs. Yan yesterday? How did you convince him? Doesn't that brat never go on blind dates?"
"It wasn't my advice! He was the one who came forward to go on a blind date. I just said something was wrong with my son. Now it's confirmed! Just wait, we'll have a daughter-in-law soon. If we're lucky, we might even have a grandson next year!" Mother Lin took a bite of the bun with satisfaction.
"...It's already November, even a flash marriage wouldn't happen this fast!"
"You can get on the bus first and buy the ticket later. Why are the elderly so conservative?"
“…”

The blind date was scheduled for 11 o'clock in the morning. They could chat, have a meal, and confirm their willingness to continue the communication. The timing was perfect. This was what Lin's mother and Yan's mother thought.
However, the blind date was scheduled at a western restaurant in the city center, and Lin's parents lived at least two hours' drive from the city center. Lin Qiyuan drove out from home at 8 o'clock and took the Central Elevated Road with restricted license plates. The traffic jam wouldn't last long, so he was sure to arrive before 11 o'clock.
Who would have thought that the normal traffic jam was not serious. When he was getting on the elevated road, the car in front of him had an accident, and there was a whole train lined up behind him, unable to move forward or backward, and he couldn't get off the train.
…
The accident was resolved and the car was finally able to move. By the time we arrived at the restaurant door, it was already a quarter past eleven.
He quickened his pace and then retreated as he passed the Cantonese restaurant next to Newsgoal.
Isn’t that boy wearing a blue sweater, with handsome features, talking and laughing with the pretty girl opposite him his blind date?
You have a blind date but you're still flirting everywhere?
Need to be dealt with?
The author has something to say: I'm late. I fell asleep halfway through writing last night. Sorry.
Guess who will take care of whom?
