At five o'clock in the evening, Geng Zhiyuan rushed home. After greeting his parents, he took out the Sichuan Province specialties that Su Qing specially gave to his future in-laws. Geng Huaiguo and Gao Shuying were overjoyed, and told their eldest son with some regret: Geng Zhiwei and Xiao Luo officially broke up.

Luo Yalan is now Geng Zhiyuan's most important business partner, and she provides all the restaurant's main Sichuan-style specialty pot bases, and if she loses her support, Yuxiang Restaurant's career will suffer a heavy blow. So he was very surprised and said, "Why?"

Geng Huaiguo glanced at his youngest son's room and whispered, "Your younger brother...... Alas, I secretly dating. ”

"Online dating?" Geng Zhiyuan has occasionally used the Internet a few times, all of which are used to send emails, and he has not yet experienced the vastness and excitement of the online world, so he can't understand that it is possible to fall in love without meeting each other online.

"We also think it's a no-brainer. Gao Shuying said angrily: "Your brother was confused by that girl, and he has to break up with Xiao Luo, alas!"

Emotional matters cannot be analyzed with reason, and once you change your mind, no one can persuade you, and there is no possibility of turning back. No wonder since November, Yuxiang restaurant has never received the pot base seasoning from Sichuan Province. If the spices in Sichuan Province are out of stock, the characteristics of Yuxiang restaurants will disappear, and the turnover will fall like a cliff.

"Alas, what can I do about this?" Geng Zhiyuan was secretly anxious, the restaurant business was booming, but he didn't expect his younger brother to suddenly come behind his back, which caught him off guard and was a little passive.

After thinking about it, Geng Zhiyuan decided to talk to his younger brother to see if there was any room for recovery.

"Zhiwei, what are you doing with Xiao Luo?" Geng Zhiyuan asked cautiously.

Geng Zhiwei was playing with his CD928+ mobile phone, and said casually: "Brother, it's nothing, I just don't think it's suitable to break up." ”

"I heard you...... Looking for another one?"

Geng Zhiwei smiled: "Listen to what my parents said? Yes, I found one, I found it on the Internet." ”

"Is it reliable?" Geng Zhiyuan looked at his younger brother in front of him, always feeling a little strange.

"Hehe!" Geng Zhiwei smiled: "We have all met, and we are still ...... Oh, and I left a phone number. ”

"What's the situation with that girl?" Geng Zhiyuan didn't sound right, how could he be so close when they first met?

"Here, you look at the pictures. Geng Zhiwei handed over a color single photo, and Geng Zhiyuan couldn't help frowning when he took it.

Although the girl in the photo is smiling, there is a vague arrogance and viciousness on her face, and her appearance and temperament are far inferior to Luo Yalan. If you look at it from a physical point of view, she looks like a cove

"Xiao Ling'er is from Leiyang, Hunan Province, studying in Changsha, gentle and considerate, much better than that Luo Yalan. Geng Zhiwei said proudly.

Geng Zhiyuan returned the photo to his younger brother, was silent for a while, and said, "You tell me the truth, what did Xiao Luo do, you have to break up with her?"

Geng Zhiwei snorted and said: "That girl is too strict, she has to revolve around her at any time, and she can't say a word to other girls, it's too depressing......"

Geng Zhiyuan opened his mouth to persuade, but he didn't know how to speak, so he sighed and said, "You can do it yourself, be careful not to be deceived." ”

"How is that possible? Xiao Ling'er won't lie to me. Geng Zhiwei swore solemnly.

Geng Zhiyuan said in his heart: "Don't let Xiao Luo, who is knowledgeable and reasonable, find such a fierce and wicked woman, you just wait to be punished." ”

Late at night, Geng Zhiyuan lay on his bed tossing and turning, and he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

As I grew older, my hometown became more and more unfamiliar, and my former classmates and friends were busy with their lives and gradually lost contact. His hometown has left an emotional scar in his heart that he dare not touch, and he often feels pain in the dead of night.

"Qingqing doesn't know if you're sleeping?" When he was upset, he missed his girlfriend very much, he picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, it was already late at night, and he said: "Almost everyone in the art academy has a mobile phone, and I have to buy one for Qingqing next semester." Even if she is against it, I have to buy it for her, and I can't let her have an inferiority complex in front of her classmates. ”

Suddenly, an ominous premonition passed through my heart: "If three years later, Qingqing is also empathetic and non-loving like Wei Xiao, what should I do?"

When I was secretly sad, my mind suddenly turned and said: "Hey, what are you thinking? Didn't Qingqing say that I always think about things in the worst, so I am often pessimistic." You should think about the benefits, and think more about how I should live my life if I get married to Qingqing in three years......"

In his thoughts, he finally fell asleep.

Accompanying his parents to the fifth day of the new year, Geng Zhiyuan was worried about the restaurant business and hurried back to Ningcheng. When I returned to my familiar home in the lakeside beauty community, I suddenly felt a special warmth in my heart.

"This is my real home! ”

On the night of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Geng Zhiyuan thought that he was a lonely person at home and simply paid for it, but he didn't expect Lu Yi to come to the door unexpectedly.

"I was kicked out of my family. Lu Yi's words surprised Geng Zhiyuan: "You were kicked out of your family, what happened?"

Lu Yi pouted and said, "During the Chinese New Year, my parents actually forced me to marry a bachelor from a neighboring village. ”

"Oh?" Geng Zhiyuan said with a twist of his mind: "I guess that person must be very rich and not young, right?"

Lu Yi pouted and said: "What kind of money do you have? If you open a brick factory, you are called rich? You are almost fifty people, about the same age as my parents, and you still fancy me and ask me to marry him, it is disgusting to think about it." ”

Geng Zhiyuan was embarrassed to comment on other people's parents, and said with a smile: "You came just in time, I just cooked a meal, let's eat together." However, I have an average level of cooking and can only cook noodles. ”

"I'll come and try my craft. Lu Yi did what she said, quickly took off her coat and turned into the kitchen, and she used the little stock she had to fry two dishes.

"Hey, you're really good, there's nothing at home that can be fried into two dishes, amazing!" Geng Zhiyuan praised a few words, took out the wine and poured a glass for Lu Yi and said: "Today is the fifth day, the two of us in a foreign land have a fateful meeting, let's have a drink." ”

Wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, Lu Yi's face flushed after a glass of wine, and begged: "Zhiyuan, I want to stay with you tonight, okay?"

"Okay?...... Okay, anyway, there are many beds, you can pick whatever you want. Geng Zhiyuan really couldn't bear to kick her out of the house, and it was indeed a bit ruthless to let Lu Yi live alone in a deserted dormitory during the Chinese New Year.

"Great, thank you!" Lu Yi's eyes were full of spring, and her cheeks were a little blushing.

Geng Zhiyuan suddenly remembered something, frowned, and said, "After the New Year, we may have to live a hard life." ”

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"There is something wrong with the relationship with Sichuan Province, and it is possible that people will no longer supply us with the spice at the bottom of the pot, so you have to be mentally prepared. ”

"Huh!?" Lu Yi was shocked and said, "If we don't have the characteristics of Sichuan flavor, I'm afraid we will lose a lot of guests." ”

"Yes...... Geng Zhiyuan said sadly: "I have to think of an alternative way, I can't sit still." ”

Once the life and death of the restaurant were involved, Lu Yi put away her spring heart, cheered up and said: "I have tried to mix some ingredients before, but unfortunately the taste is far from good, and I still can't match that taste." ”

"Whether you're in business or designing, it's the same. Geng Zhiyuan stroked his head and pondered: "If you don't have your own proprietary technology in design and your own characteristics in business, it will be difficult to stand out from the competition."

Lu Yi listened quietly and admired: "Zhiyuan, you can see it really thoroughly. ”

Geng Zhiyuan smiled at her and said: "If technology is the core competitiveness of the design institute, then the pot bottom seasoning is the core competitiveness of our restaurant." The core thing is in the hands of others, and sooner or later something will go wrong. I ignored that, and the responsibility is on me. ”

"Don't blame yourself too much, let's figure it out together. Lu Yi said distressedly.

"Alas, you have to think about it if you can't help it......" Geng Zhiyuan took off his glasses and rubbed his face with his hand and said: "After the opening of the New Year, first use the inventory to support the point, and you can find a way to do more experiments, at least there can be a similar formula first, and then we will find a way to find other sources." ”

"Okay, I'll start doing it tomorrow. ”

After freshening up before going to bed, Lu Yi walked to the door of his room and hesitated slightly, seeing that Geng Zhiyuan was still reading on the sofa, and said shyly: "Zhiyuan...... You...... Come in?"

Geng Zhiyuan's eyes widened in surprise, and he instantly understood Lu Yi's hint, he paused and smiled: "You sleep, I have to read a book for a while." ”

"Okay...... Good night. Unexpectedly, he refused, Lu Yi was so ashamed that her face was flushed, she only felt that she had no face to see anyone, so she fled and hid in the room.

"Tsk......" Geng Zhiyuan said secretly: "It's not okay to go on like this, you have to find a partner for Lu Yi quickly, so that she won't have to think about it all day." If one day I can't control it and make a mistake, how can I have the face to face Qingqing, and how can I deal with the relationship between the two of them?"

Lu Yi is now Geng Zhiyuan's most important helper, and he can almost be said to be his right-hand man. If she is lost, it may be difficult for Wanzi Lane No. 2 Store to continue operating. So he had to maintain a good relationship with Lu Yi and not lose this most important assistant.

"The tightrope from the left and right sources is really difficult to walk, and if you don't get it right, it will fall. For the sake of my career, should I sacrifice my hue to bind Lu Yi?" As soon as the thought came up, Geng Zhiyuan hurriedly dispelled it: "You can't have this kind of dirty idea, Lu Yi is a strong girl, I have to respect her." Having such thoughts is an insult to her personality, and it is absolutely unacceptable. ”

Early the next morning, Geng Zhiyuan slept lazily and didn't get up until seven o'clock. Lu Yi had already gotten up early, made breakfast, and waited for him to eat with him like a little daughter-in-law.

"I'm sorry, I'm up late. Geng Zhiyuan sat down at the table and apologized.

Lu Yi was wearing a pink pajamas, and said with a shyly smile: "There is nothing at home, I can only make so little, you will eat it." ”

During the Chinese New Year, there were almost no stalls selling breakfast outside, and it was a dream for Geng Zhiyuan to be able to eat such a sumptuous breakfast. He couldn't help but sigh: "It's good to have a woman in the family, and only with a woman can a family be called a family." ”

Lu Yi was encouraged and boldly murmured, "Zhiyuan...... I won't rob you with Sister Su...... I just want to ...... Just want to give you a baby!"

Geng Zhiyuan was so frightened that he almost dropped the bowl in his hand to the ground, and he said with a sad face: "Eldest sister...... Oh no, girl...... You think too highly of me, I can't afford your affection. ”

"Zhiyuan, I'm waiting for you, come to me one day when you think about it, I'll always open the door to you. Lu Yi confessed.

"Oh my God!" Geng Zhiyuan cried bitterly, "What can I do about this?"
