Li Li was silent for a long time, and then replied in a hoarse voice: "I have received many gifts, but this kind of gift is unprecedented."
She was extremely shocked and unbelievable. If this was really painted by Zhou Chen, then she and Zhou Chen had only met twice, and they had not been together for a long time. Without her at the scene, Zhou Chen could rely on his memory to
To make such a perfect painting is simply incredible.
But the facts are right in front of her. The portrait is her. Her appearance and clothes cannot be faked, especially that outfit. She only wore it on the opening day and had never worn it before.
Moreover, with Zhou Chen's status, there is no need to lie and deceive her. Why should he lie to her and care about her and her person?
She came back to her senses and looked at Zhou Chen, who was still so calm that his expression was hard to tell.
"Mr. Zhou, your gift is really too expensive. I'm afraid I can't afford it."
"This portrait is you, and it was originally prepared for you. If you can't bear it, who can?"
With his strong memory, super hands-on ability, and painting skills that practice makes perfect, his painting skills have really reached a very high level. If you want to say that the charm is a bit lacking, it's okay, but in terms of similarity and authenticity,
His paintings are absolutely speechless.
"That's it. I don't like to take back what I give away. If you really don't want it, then I will have no choice but to destroy it."
"Don't."
Li Li shouted reflexively, and then saw the expression on Zhou Chen's face that said nothing, and felt helpless.
"I accepted it."
This portrait is hers. Even if she is not an artist, when she sees this portrait of herself, she is reluctant to destroy it and just wants to treasure it.
"Mr. Zhou, thank you very much. This gift from you is the most special and precious gift I have ever received in my life."
Zhou Chen smiled slightly and said, "As long as you like it, how many meals can this painting be worth?"
Li Li smiled and said: "Forever, this painting is enough for Mr. Zhou to stay in Zhizhen Garden for free forever."
"Then I would be disrespectful."
"Yes, Mr. Zhou, please."
Li Li asked Manager Pan to accept the painting and send it to her apartment upstairs. She didn't have time now. She must appreciate the painting again when she is alone.
Zhou Chen came to the private room and said to Li Li: "I heard that Mr. Bao's words made Zhizhen Garden popular again."
Li Li said: "Yes, Mr. Bao deserves to be Mr. Bao. In one sentence, a portion of fried beef has put Zhizhenyuan on the forefront."
"Then the dry-fried beef river must be selling well recently, right?"
"It's not only good, almost most of the guests who come to Zhenyuan will order a piece of fried beef river."
Even Li Li smiled bitterly when she thought of the fried beef heap that had been so popular in the store these days. She had underestimated Mr. Bao's influence.
"Mr. Zhou, can I ask you a question?"
"You want to ask, why did Mr. Bao say that Zhizhen Garden has been open for less than three months?"
"That's not it. I was confused at the time, but now I understand it. It's really not that easy to open a restaurant on Huanghe Road. What I want to ask is, why did Mr. Zhou and Mr. Bao come to Zhenyuan from the small kitchen in the back?
Door in?"
Zhou Chen smiled slightly. Of course he knew why Mr. Bao entered through the small door at the back. As for him, he just found it interesting and took a look at the kitchen of Zhizhenyuan. He had no other special intention.
But since Li Li asked, he gave an answer.
"A layman looks at the facade, an expert looks at the back door!"
Li Li frowned slightly. She understood somewhat, but not completely, but she still thanked her gratefully.
"Mr. Zhou, thank you for reminding me."
Zhou Chen just smiled lightly and said: "You're welcome. Rather than closing down Zhizhen Garden, I actually want to see Zhizhen Garden stay well on the Yellow River Road. Only in this way will there be more excitement.
"
