"Mr. Shen, wouldn't it be too risky for you to leave Han Zibin behind?"

Although there is a non-compete agreement, he cannot engage in related work within three years of resignation, but Han Zibin is the young owner of Fu Shunlai, he can completely use Shen Ji's strengths to make up for Fu Shunlai's shortcomings without working by himself, and they have no way to use the agreement to restrain Han Zibin.

Facing Julie's worries, Shen Mingzhu smiled calmly: "Don't worry, I dare to keep him, naturally I have thought about the consequences." ”

If Han Zibin can do what she says and be a loyal person, then she doesn't mind cultivating the other party for what she uses.

But if Han Zibin is really a spy sent by Fu Shunlai, she will definitely retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and stab Fu Shunlai through the heart.

A few gold-lettered signature dishes from Fushun, she doesn't say that they can be 100% reproduced, and it is no problem to reproduce them.

……

The restaurant is about to open, and Shen Mingzhu has not fallen behind in self-examination.

During the lunch break and evening, she would take Shen Hongmei to study together.

There is some motivation to study together, and Shen Hongmei can also ask her for advice if she has knowledge points that she doesn't understand.

Today's Shen Hongmei was obviously not in a state, and she sat for several minutes, without even turning half a page of the book.

"Has it been too stressful lately? If you really can't learn, go to a nap, there's no need to force it. ”

Shen Hongmei hurriedly came back to her senses, "No." ”

"That's what happened?"

Shen Hongmei's face showed a little distress, "Ma Chao called me in the morning. ”

Shen Mingzhu raised his eyebrows, "What else is he looking for you for?" He is now a married man, and you better keep your distance from him so as not to get into trouble. ”

"His father-in-law has a way to help him dredge up the relationship and become a teacher, but he needs money. He asked me to borrow money. ”

"How much to borrow?"

"He asked me to meet and talk, it is estimated that it will cost thousands of yuan, and he doesn't need to look for me for three or five hundred."

Shen Mingzhu looked at her, "What do you think?" ”

"I don't know, he's quite pitiful, a big man, with a salary of more than 30 yuan a month, can't even afford to support his family."

Shen Mingzhu laughed, "Even if he goes to ask for food, it won't be your turn to give alms, this is the path he chose himself, to put it mildly, this is the retribution that a scumbag deserves." ”

"If he hadn't abandoned you because he was poor and rich, he might have been a college student by now."

Shen Hongmei was speechless.

If she and Ma Chao hadn't broken up, she would definitely have been for Ma Chao to repeat.

"If you're ready to lend money out for fun, you can borrow it."

Shen Hongmei subconsciously defended Ma Chao: "He will pay it back." ”

Shen Mingzhu sneered: "Did you pay back the expenses you used to spend on him?" ”

Shen Hongmei said: "He doesn't have the ability to pay me back now." ”

"Even if it doesn't come out now, has he ever given you an accurate word, settle the previous accounts, and then write you an IOU."

"Even if he is willing to admit this old account in front of your family, even if he can't pay it back until he dies, I will count him a man!"

Shen Hongmei was speechless again.

The weather became hot, and the more Shen Mingzhu talked, the more angry he became, and he picked up the cup to drink water, only to find that the cup was empty.

Shen Hongmei had the foresight to bring the kettle and pour it for her.

The kettle is filled with warm jasmine tea, which can be drunk when poured.

The fragrant and pleasant fragrance of jasmine tea made Shen Mingzhu's anger reduce a lot.

"Do you want to test a man's character?"

"How?"

Shen Mingzhu said the method with a smile, and Shen Hongmei was thoughtful.

……

When Shen Hongmei arrived at the restaurant, Ma Chao was already there, and he also ordered the dishes, one meat, one vegetable and one soup, although it was a little simple, it was all Shen Hongmei's favorite taste.

While eating, Ma Chao told Shen Hongmei about the hardships of the past two years, and his eyebrows were full of bitterness.

Shen Hongmei repeatedly recalled Shen Mingzhu's warning in her mind: Man, don't look at what he said, look at what he did.

“…… This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, there is an old teacher who is going to retire early because of physical reasons, and a vacant position comes out, and several substitute teachers like me want to grab it, or my father-in-law helped find a relationship, as long as the money is in place, I will be stable. ”

"Hongmei, you know the situation of my family, I haven't paid off the debts I got married before, and I really can't come up with the money, otherwise I wouldn't be looking for you, I don't have the face to look for you."

But you still look for it.

Shen Hongmei looked at the person in front of her and found that he was a little more vicissitudes than she imagined, with pale green stubble hanging on his chin, thin cheekbones, and his eyes were no longer as simple and sincere as when he was a teenager, but filled with ambition and desire.

He's changed, and so has she.

She hadn't seen it before, and her liking gilded him with a golden light, making him dazzling and shining among all living beings.

But now, she felt that he was so ordinary, worldly.

Seeing Shen Hongmei staring at him without turning her eyes, Ma Chao instinctively thought that she had no feelings for him, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart.

He diligently sandwiched a chopstick into Shen Hongmei's bowl, "Hongmei, eat more, you used to like to eat this the most." ”

Shen Hongmei really likes to eat pork duaner, but at this time she has no appetite.

"Ma Chao."

"What's wrong?"

"When you were in high school, there were a few times when you couldn't get the tuition, I paid it for you, and I also gave you some additional living expenses every semester, I calculated it, it added up to about two hundred, even if it was two hundred, when do you think this money is convenient for me?"

Ma Chao was stunned.

Shen Hongmei smiled, "If we succeed, the money will definitely not matter, but if we don't succeed, I have no obligation to spend money on you, right?" ”

Ma Chao finally came back to his senses and nodded, "Yes, I, I will return it to you in the future." ”

Shen Hongmei still smiled, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." ”

Hearing her say this, Ma Chao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second he heard-

"You can write me an IOU, the return date will be written for two years, two hundred yuan is not much, how can you pay it back in two years?"

Ma Chao was stunned again, looking at Shen Hongmei for a long time without squeaking.

Shen Hongmei took out a notebook and pen from her bag, "Na, just write on it." ”

After realizing that Shen Hongmei was serious, Ma Chao's face was a little difficult to look at.

Two hundred pieces was not a small amount for him.

"Hongmei, I have to go back and discuss this with my daughter-in-law first, after all, I am now a family person, if I write an IOU privately, I will not be able to explain it to my father-in-law."

"What, I'll go back and tell my daughter-in-law, I'll go first."

After saying that, he got up and hurried away.

Looking at Ma Chao's back as if there was a ghost behind her, Shen Hongmei laughed at herself, and she didn't have the heart to eat any more, carrying her bag and preparing to leave, but was stopped by the boss and asked her to settle the bill.

Although she didn't have much money, Shen Hongmei was still super unhappy, and after paying the bill, she asked the boss to pack all the leftovers.

Walking out of the restaurant, Shen Hongmei walked in the direction of the station, and after a few steps, a horn suddenly sounded behind her, startling her.

Looking back, it was Zhao Dafa.

"Hongmei, what about going back, do you want to take a ride?"

Although Zhao Dafa was easy-going and enthusiastic, Zhou Hui's visit to find fault left a big shadow on Shen Hongmei.

"No need, Brother Zhao, I still want to go shopping."

Zhao Dafa nodded and drove away.

After seeing Santana disappear into the streets, Shen Hongmei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Dafa in the car muttered. (End of chapter)
