Chapter 475: Title
"No, I'm looking for you today. The previous hippie smile has faded, and Lu Youyou at this moment also looks a little serious.
"Is there anything more important than eating meat?"
"Oh, I said you think about eating meat all day long, can you have some fun. Lu Youyou listened to Si Meng's words, and actually had a sense of "hating iron does not make steel", and then her tone changed, "I really have something to do." Let me tell you, my pastry shop is about to reopen, so come and help. ”
"Rice?"
"Bag!"
"Is there any meat?"
"Yes!"
"Then I'll come!"
Sometimes, Lu Youyou will wonder if she has made fake friends, even though she is a pastry chef but thinks about eating meat all day long, it is really a wonder. But what Lu Youyou didn't know was that the same question had existed in Ling Zhaoting's mind for a long time.
Although it is wonderful, Si Meng's craftsmanship is still very good, and he is now making snacks for a five-star hotel, and it is really very righteous for Lu Youyou to give up such a high-paying job.
ushered in Si Meng, even if the problem of the pastry chef was solved, Ling Zhaoting recruited a few waiters for Lu Youyou, and the next thing was to sit and wait for the opening.
Lu Youyou set the opening date on February 12, firstly because it was close to Valentine's Day, and secondly because February 12th was the day she first met Bai Yucheng, although Ling Zhaoting has always refused to admit her identity, but Lu Youyou has already identified this man as her Ling Zhaoting in her heart.
Lu Youyou doesn't like extravagance and waste, and she doesn't want to make the opening ceremony so grand. On the opening day, a few flower baskets and balloons were placed at the door. Ling Zhaoting disagreed at first, he was worried that the business of such a casual pastry shop would not be good, but later Lu Youyou's words also persuaded him.
"It's too festive and festive, and it doesn't match the temperament of my pastry shop. Thinking about it carefully, this sentence is quite reasonable, Ling Zhaoting just followed Lu Youyou's meaning and let her go by herself.
At noon that day, Ling Zhaoting had just finished reading a document in his hand, and he was also a little hungry, so he got up and went to Lu Youyou's pastry shop. Of course, he will not forget his promise to Lu Youyou: on the opening day, he will go over to cheer.
Along the way, Ling Zhaoting's mood was very happy, perhaps because he was about to see the person on the tip of his heart later, and his steps became brisk.
There was already a long queue at the door of the pastry shop, this customer flow was obviously beyond Ling Zhaoting's expectations, the corners of the man's mouth raised a good-looking arc, the business was so prosperous, Lu Youyou must be very happy, but it didn't take long for the smile on his face to disappear, so many people, don't be tired of his Lu Youyou.
"Let one go, let one go. Ling Zhaoting fought his way out of the eyes of everyone, and finally walked to the kitchen to find Lu Youyou. Sure enough, the woman was busy and dizzy. There are two pastry chefs in the whole store, Lu Youyou and Si Meng, who didn't seem to expect such a large flow of customers on the first day of opening, and the stock is a big shortage, and they are bowing their heads and concentrating on making cakes.
Lu Youyou's focused appearance has a unique charm, although Ling Zhaoting is distressed, he also understands that he can't interrupt Lu Youyou at this moment, so he just leaned against the wall, smiling and admiring Lu Youyou making cakes.
After a long time, Lu Youyou let out a long breath of relief, looked at the strawberry cake on the table, and nodded with satisfaction. was about to bring the cake out, but unexpectedly a handsome man was leaning against the door, and this man was looking at her with gentle eyes, and for a moment, Lu Youyou stopped the movement of her feet.
"You're here!" was a little sweet, a little shy, but she had been waiting for him.
"Eh, who is this?" Si Meng raised his head when he heard this, and asked gossipingly, but seeing the eye contact between the two, he also guessed the relationship between Lu Youyou and Ling Zhaoting, secretly turned sideways, and said softly in Lu Youyou's ear: "Very handsome!"
Lu Youyou's little face turned red all of a sudden, and she replied hesitantly: "A friend." ”
"Oh (three times), boyfriend, I know, you can talk, just treat me as air. Simeng naturally has the consciousness of a light bulb, and continues to make pastries with his head down, ignoring what is going on outside the window.
"The business of the pastry shop is better than expected! But you're busy, I'll take you to eat something delicious after work." ”
It's true that the business of the pastry shop is booming, and I don't know how much fatigue will accumulate at the end of the day, Ling Zhaoting also wants Lu Youyou to replenish some energy before proposing to take her out to eat. Lu Youyou naturally understood the other party's hard work, so she nodded and agreed.
The opening time of the pastry shop is set for two days before Valentine's Day, and Lu Youyou has also launched a "Valentine's Day Special Event": couples buy at a 20% discount, which also attracts more people.
Having learned the lesson of the previous day, Lu Youyou and Si Meng arrived at the store early in the morning to start stocking up, the pastry shop was open at ten o'clock in the morning, but they arrived at seven o'clock. Whenever she was busy in the kitchen, Lu Youyou was very grateful that she had found Simeng's helper, which was very efficient, and the two of them had a good idea. Lu Youyou secretly thought in her heart: Although it is a good thing that the pastry shop business is good, but if it goes on like this, it will exhaust itself, and she is not blindly pursuing profits, but just thinking about opening a pastry shop to develop her hobbies. This is contrary to her original intention, and after a brief discussion with Si Meng, she decided to put forward the concept of limited edition: the dim sum in the entire pastry shop is limited to 30 copies, and it will not be replenished when it is sold out, and if you want to buy it, you can only wait until the next day.
As soon as this concept was proposed, the long queue was instantly reduced by half, and some customers who were in a hurry and knew that they would definitely not be able to buy it simply left the queue and went to buy lunch at another house. Now, Lu Youyou and Simeng are finally idle, not as tired as the day before.
When it wasn't time for a meal, the customer flow of the entire store was okay, and the sofas arranged around it could just be filled, such a quiet scene was exactly what Lu Youyou wanted.
Staying in the kitchen for a long time also made Lu Youyou stuffy, and this afternoon I became curious to see what the scene was like outside.
Because it is close to Valentine's Day, the pastry shop has launched a "Valentine's Day special event", and almost all of them are men and women, and they are intimate with each other. A young couple met Lu Youyou's eyes, they were wearing couple clothes, very young and energetic, and they looked like college students. The girl leaned her head on the boy's shoulder, and then pleaded to the boy to ask him to help her buy mango mille-feuille, the man turned his head sideways, dropped a gentle kiss on the girl's forehead, and then put a mille-feuille on the plate and went to the cashier to settle the bill.
Twenty years old is always so beautiful and carefree. There is no trouble at work, no family pressure, and no unspeakable social factors, you can do whatever you want.
Lu Youyou looked at the little couple in front of her, couldn't help sighing, and secretly sighed: It's good to be young. I was also happy for this girl, because she could see that this boy loved her very much.
All kinds of couples are in the pastry shop, some are already working and some are still in school, and they are all holding hands, which is very intimate.
Lu Youyou also thought of herself at this moment, she also hoped to be able to hold hands with Ling Zhaoting like this, buy snacks and go shopping, don't care about other people's eyes at all, go wherever she wants, and don't have to be afraid of the paparazzi's capture, she has to deliberately act separately, such a day, she is really boring and helpless.
She really didn't understand that the number of times she and Ling Zhaoting went out to eat alone was really rare, and she could count them on one hand, let alone go shopping and buy clothes. Every time, he walked out with his friends, and then took pictures and sent them to Ling Zhaoting, and the other party said yes, so Lu Youyou bought it. Every woman hopes that her boyfriend can accompany her shopping, and they look forward to seeing the man's amazing gaze when they change their clothes and come out of the fitting room, of course, Lu Youyou is no exception. Whenever she heard her friends talk about the fun story of shopping with her boyfriend, she could only smile secretly and couldn't interject at all. A man accompanies a woman to go shopping to the point of despair, and she has never seen it.
He and Ling Zhaoting have been together for so long, but they have always been like his underground lover, they have been developing in secret, and they haven't even met a few of his friends, Lu Youyou really doesn't like this.
took out her mobile phone and adjusted the camera camera to the front, the woman on the screen has snow-white and delicate skin, a pair of big eyes that are blazing, willow leaves with curved eyebrows, and a cherry mouth, which is very good-looking, and it can be amazing without a beauty camera at all. Lu Youyou didn't understand, didn't he know where he looked so shabby, why Ling Zhaoting was reluctant to announce the relationship between the two to everyone, or did he dislike that he was just a pastry chef and didn't have any proper profession.
"I'll pick you up after work. ”
Lu Youyou's mobile phone screen suddenly lit up, and a WeChat message came, obviously, it was sent by Ling Zhaoting. But Lu Youyou is not in the mood to pay attention to him at this moment, she really can't understand where she is unseemly, and the thing of reputation is really important to her.
In the past, Lu Youyou would always politely reply after seeing WeChat, even if it was a group blessing during the show, but today, Lu Youyou selectively ignored Ling Zhaoting's WeChat, at this moment, she was not in the mood to see Ling Zhaoting at all. Twenty minutes later, Lu Youyou replied to WeChat slowly, but there was only one word: "Okay." ”
Lu Youyou, like a modern young man, rarely returns to a single word, and usually returns a single word, but she is angry or in a bad mood. How could Ling Zhaoting, as a straight man, guess a woman's thoughts, when he saw the reply, he only glanced at it and continued to work with a smile, how could he think that Lu Youyou on the other side had already fallen into the strange circle he set for himself.
As soon as half past five arrived, Ling Zhaoting drove to the door of Lu Youyou's pastry shop on time, wearing sunglasses and covering them very tightly, so that ordinary people could not recognize him as Ling Zhaoting, the president of Ling's enterprise. In normal times, Lu Youyou naturally wouldn't have any special reaction, but after being stimulated by a lot of young couples today, he actually felt that the scene in front of him was particularly dazzling, why did he have to cover himself so tightly, as if he was afraid that others would recognize him, obviously he said that he didn't care that the store was so close to the company, but now what does this mean?
A little angry, Lu Youyou puffed out her mouth, and her steps were much heavier than before, she really wanted to know what her identity was in Ling Zhaoting's heart. A lover is still a girlfriend, and that's really important to her.
There was no joy like before, nor was there any vitality before, Lu Youyou just nodded to Ling Zhaoting superficially, then opened the car door, sat in the co-pilot's seat, and without waiting for Ling Zhaoting to leave, he buckled his seat belt and didn't say a word.
The whole car is a little scary.
