At around ten o'clock in the morning, Sheng Chuncheng had just gotten up when his cell phone rang:
"Mr. Lan has called you. Mr. Lan has called you."
Sheng Chuncheng picked up and Mr. Lan asked: "Xiao Sheng, where are you?"
Sheng Chuncheng said he was at home.
"I'll treat you to dinner at noon. Where do you live? I'll pick you up at eleven o'clock later," Mr. Lan said.
Sheng Chuncheng held the phone and wondered what Mr. Lan meant. He wanted to treat himself to a meal. Why?
Sheng Chuncheng used to go to Dongfang Runyuan to serve Mr. Lan and Mr. Yun. When the service was completed, it was time for dinner. Mr. Lan also said that he would stay for dinner, but that was very polite. Sheng Chuncheng would always
They all found reasons to shirk it, and Mr. Lan didn’t force it.
This is the first time that I have called specifically like today to say that I want to treat myself to a meal.
Sheng Chuncheng looked at Chunni and Chunming. It was inconvenient to say that he lived in Jingfang District 5. He said:
"I'll send you the location, Mr. Lan."
Mr. Lan said yes, I will come over in half an hour.
After hanging up the phone, Sheng Chuncheng opened WeChat, set the location at the gate of Jingfang District 2, and sent it to Mr. Lan.
Sheng Chuncheng looked at Chuni. Before he could speak, Chuni said:
"Go ahead. We'll use last night's leftovers to cook vegetables and make rice for lunch. I'll cook it."
Sheng Chuncheng said yes.
He walked to the bathroom to wash up, looked at the time, and decided to go there early, otherwise if Mr. Lan arrived early, it would be inconvenient for him to arrive there.
Sheng Chuncheng rode to the gate of Jingfang District 2 more than ten minutes early. A long way away, he slowed down and watched carefully to see if Mr. Lan had arrived early. Sheng Chuncheng didn't know what Mr. Lan was driving.
What kind of car? Opposite the gate of the community, there are a Hyundai and a BYD parked.
Mr. Lan said that he should not be able to drive such a car, but Sheng Chuncheng still got out of the car in advance, put on his sunglasses and walked in that direction. However, in broad daylight, he still did not take out the blind cane.
After approaching the two cars and confirming that there was no one on board, there were also fines posted by the urban management on the front windshields of the two cars. Sheng Chuncheng breathed a sigh of relief and found a shade to stop.
After waiting for eight or nine minutes, a maroon Cayenne drove over. Sheng Chuncheng had already seen that the driver was Mr. Lan. He pretended not to see it until the car stopped in front of him.
Mr. Lan got out of the car and waved to him as usual, calling "Xiao Sheng, Xiao Sheng."
Mr. Lan walked around the front of the car, opened the passenger door, took Sheng Chuncheng's hand, and asked him to take a seat in the passenger seat.
"Are you seated well, Xiao Sheng?" Mr. Lan asked. Sheng Chuncheng said while looking for the seat belt.
"Okay, I'm closing the door." Mr. Lan said, slamming the door shut.
Then she walked back to the driver's seat, got in the car, closed the door, turned around and said to Sheng Chuncheng:
"Xiao Sheng, I will take you to a good place. We will have lunch there."
Sheng Chuncheng smiled and asked: "Is there anything good today?"
"Yes, yes, of course there are good things. I'll tell you when I get there." Mr. Lan chuckled.
Mr. Lan drove the car around Genshan West Road, drove to the end of Genshan West Road, arrived at Huancheng North Road, and drove to the intersection of Jianguo North Road, turned right onto Jianbei Bridge, crossed the Jiangnan Canal, and continued driving forward.
After walking for five or six minutes, there was a parking space on the roadside, and Mr. Lan parked his car in it.
Sheng Chuncheng looked around through his sunglasses. He saw that there were residential areas on both sides of the road here. There were no big hotels. What kind of food could he come here to eat?
"We're here, we're here, let's get off the car... Oh, Xiao Sheng, just sit still and I'll come over to help you." Mr. Lan called.
Mr. Lan pulled Sheng Chuncheng out of the car and told him that it was just across the road, let's go there.
Sheng Chuncheng looked across the road. He saw that there was only a "Fast Food Market - a big canteen for the common people" diagonally opposite. In addition, the other shops in that row were a hardware store and a flower shop.
There are several stores and a small supermarket, among which "Fast Food Market" is the largest. Looking through a row of large glass, the inside is about more than 200 square meters.
There were two rows of flower baskets placed at the entrance of the store. It looked like the store had only been open for a few days.
Mr. Lan held Sheng Chuncheng's hand with his right hand and stretched out his left hand to signal the passing vehicles to slow down. The two of them crossed the road and walked to the door of the "Fast Food Market".
Sheng Chuncheng saw that it was a fast food restaurant. There was a large row of glass windows against the wall on the left. There was a long row of display screens on the glass windows. The dishes and their prices were displayed on them. The prices of the dishes ranged from two yuan to ten yuan.
wait.
On the table inside the glass display window, there are small plates and small plates of dishes, which are more than a foot wide outside. The diners put the trays on the marble countertop and select the dishes inside while sliding them. If they like whichever one they like, they put it on their own trays.
If any dish is missing, the waiter will add it.
Outside, red steel pipes are used to separate passages that allow one person to walk. The entire layout is the same as the design of many fast food restaurants in highway service areas. Diners enter from this end of the passage with trays and select along the way.
, check out and collect payment at the other end of the aisle.
The store is lined with orange plastic chairs and white tables for four, neatly arranged in rows. The entire store can accommodate more than a hundred people dining at the same time.
Although it's only around 11 o'clock now, which is still early before the lunch peak, more than half of the diners are already sitting in the store, and it looks like the business is doing well.
Mr. Lan led Sheng Chuncheng to find an empty table and sit down. Mr. Lan asked a passing waiter:
"Hey, where's your boss?"
The waiter pointed to the distance and said, "The boss is in the kitchen."
"Go, go, call the boss and tell me a friend is here," Mr. Lan said.
The waiter looked at them and walked towards the kitchen.
The seat where Sheng Chuncheng was sitting could just see the door leading to the kitchen. He saw the waiter walking in through that door. After a while, the waiter walked out first, and a woman followed her out. The waiter
Pointing in their direction, the woman came towards them.
The woman was wearing a set of maroon work clothes and a white hat on her head. When she approached, Sheng Chuncheng was shocked and almost screamed. He saw that the woman walking over was actually Mr. Yun.
She has lost a lot of weight and is darker, but yes, she is President Yun.
Mr. Yun also saw them, smiled and walked over, walked behind Mr. Lan, reached out and patted Mr. Lan on the shoulder, and cursed:
"Damn it, I asked you to come when we opened the day before yesterday but you didn't come. Why are you here today?"
Mr. Lan turned to look at her and asked, "What, you're not welcome? If you're not welcome, Xiao Sheng and I will leave immediately."
"Okay, welcome, big boss." Mr. Yun pressed his hands on Mr. Lan's shoulders, walked over and sat down next to Sheng Chuncheng.
"How is business, little boss?" Mr. Lan asked. Mr. Yun chuckled and said proudly:
"Of course the business is good, but don't even look at who owns this store."
