Chapter 493 The Unspeakable Real Situation (Two Chapters in One)
"Welcome." The waitress wearing a uniform embroidered with small floral flowers greeted the two guests who entered the store with a smile.
"Are there any seats left in the store?" Lin Li looked around the restaurant full of customers and asked the waitress in front of him.
“Only private rooms are left.”
“Okay, then give us a private room.”
"You two, please follow me." The waitress led Lin Li and Su Yue to the second floor of the restaurant and took them to a small private room.
"Is this private room available?"
"Yes."
After Lin Li and Su Yue sat down, the waitress took two menus and handed them to them.
"This white chicken looks good, let's have one!" Su Yue opened the menu in her hand, raised her finger to point to the picture of a dish, and said to Lin Li sitting next to her.
"Yes." Lin Li nodded and looked at the waitress standing in front of him, "Please give us a piece of white chopped chicken, and also a piece of fish fillet cooked in vinegar."
The waitress took it from her pocket. He took out a machine, operated it a few times, and recorded the two dishes ordered by Lin Li.
“I’d like a piece of Mapo Tofu, too, and another piece of boiled beef.” Lin Li flipped through the menu and added two more dishes. After speaking, he turned to look around him Su Yue.
“Let’s have a piece of fried water spinach, and... let’s have a piece of loofah soup.” Su Yue added another dish and one soup. She and Lin Li ordered five dishes and one soup in total. This amount is enough for two people. That’s a lot to say.
"Do you need anything else?" the waiter asked after writing down all the dishes ordered.
"It's not needed for now. If it's not enough, we'll add more." Lin Li said. The waitress nodded, then left the private room and went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes for the two of them.
Putting the menu aside, Su Yue took the teapot from the table and poured a cup of tea for Lin Li and herself.
Lin Li picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Looking at Su Yue with a slight smile on her face, he put down the teacup in his hand and asked.
“You went to the capital for a physical check-up, and it turned out that there was nothing wrong with you.
It’s been a few days, and your body is indeed no longer abnormal, right?”
Su Yue, who was drinking tea, heard Lin Li's inquiry and turned to look at him. Seeing Lin Li's face full of concern, the corners of her mouth raised, revealing a very happy smile.
"Don't worry, I have eaten well and slept well these past few days, and my body has not had any abnormalities."
Lin Li nodded, "If there is another problem with my body in the future, If you feel comfortable, you can call me..."
Su Yue said "hmm", with a smile on her face and crooked eyebrows. It was obvious that she was in a very good mood at the moment.
“Today is the last day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, and you will start working tomorrow.
This time you bought so many local specialties in the capital, many of them are going to be given to your colleagues in the office, right? " Lin Li asked, thinking of the heavy weight of the suitcase he was pulling for Su Yue just now.
"Yes! "Su Yue stretched out her hand, pinched her fingers as slender as green onions, and counted.
"In addition to giving them to colleagues in the office, I also gave them to a few people in the community who usually gave me vegetables I grew and fish I caught. The old aunt and uncle who bought fish prepared some, and my old classmate from the flower shop..."
Lin Li heard Su Yue mention her old classmate Wang Ling from the flower shop, and remembered that the girl was very unlucky. When the business was booming, there was road construction in front of the door, so the flower shop had to temporarily Closed for business
“Has the road in front of the flower shop opened by your old classmate not been repaired yet? ”
Su Yue shook her head and said helplessly, "My old classmate is very unlucky. The road would have been repaired in another week, and her flower shop could reopen by then.
As a result, the construction team building the road was careless and accidentally buried some facilities underground. The construction team was so careless that they dug up other underground facilities. Now...now you know that road, how long will it take to repair it?" Lin Li asked curiously.
Su Yue recalled what she learned while chatting with her old classmates and said to Lin Li.
“I heard from Wang Ling that some facilities buried underground will be repaired before road construction can begin. The specific time for the road to be repaired may not be until the end of this month, which is before the National Day holiday.”
"The Mid-Autumn Festival holiday has just ended. Thinking about it, the National Day holiday will be in just over half a month. It gives people the feeling that there are many holidays." Lin Li said with a smile.
"The National Day holiday is seven days. Do you have any plans to travel?" Su Yue asked.
Now I want to make myself stronger and hunt exotic animals as long as I have time. Holidays and other things are no different to me than usual... Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then he told Su Yue He said he had no plans to travel.
"It's a seven-day National Day holiday. It's boring to stay at home. You can find a place to travel!" Su Yue advised.
"On a long holiday like this, there are a lot of people traveling, and the slightly famous scenic spots are crowded with people. If I go to crowd with those tourists, I might as well stay at home and play games." Lin Li faced Su Yue. I found a reason to refuse the persuasion.
"When I travel during the long vacation, there are quite a lot of tourists at the scenic spots, but I haven't been crowded by others..." Su Yue recalled the past travels with her parents and said.
"What about you? Will you go back to your hometown to travel with your parents during this year's National Day holiday like in previous years?" Lin Li asked rhetorically.
"Yes." Su Yue nodded. She went on a trip with her parents during the National Day holiday. They had been doing this for so many years. It was considered an essential trip for their family every year.
"Where are you and your parents going to travel this year?" Lin Li asked casually.
“I haven’t decided yet, where to travel? My mother usually decides where to travel. When she decides where to travel, she will tell me and my dad that we will follow her. "Su Yue said.
"Oh."
"Have you been running online car-hailing services recently?"
"Ah?" Lin Li didn't expect that Su Yue would suddenly change the subject and ask It was something he had made up before, and he was stunned.
Su Yue picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, looked at Lin Li's stunned expression, and asked.
"Ah what? Judging from your reaction, you are not feeling tired and quitting, right?"
"Um..." Lin Li came back to his senses and replied with a smile, "I'm doing it, but not as frequently as at the beginning."
"You! When I introduced you to the job, you Say nothing and go buy it yourself. A van, working as an online taxi driver.
I thought that since you decided to do this kind of work, you would be able to do it for at least a year, but I didn’t expect that it just passed! After a few months, I started to slack off," Su Yue said helplessly. From her current point of view, it is very bad that several months have passed since Lin Li graduated this year and he still does not have a stable job.
Even though he has two houses in his hands, he also has a guaranteed deposit that is considered quite large by ordinary people.
And this kind of working behavior of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days is not what a young man who has just graduated from college should be like.
Lin Li saw Su Yue's helpless look and could probably guess what the other person was thinking. He raised his hand and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Lin Li, although you now have two houses in hand and a million deposits in your bank account, inflation is so bad now!
Once you sit back and eat everything, you won't be able to use much Years later, you will find that the one million deposits in your account are not as durable as you thought, and cannot afford the leisurely life you imagined. ”
Su Yue persuaded Lin Li sincerely, hoping that he could work seriously and not just sit back and eat nothing.
“…”
In addition to the two houses I own now, not counting other things, the deposit in my account already exceeds 60 million.
With such a sum of money, even if I don’t do anything from now on, I can live a very comfortable life.
Facing Su Yue’s earnest persuasion, Lin Li muttered to himself.
Now he couldn't tell Su Yue what he was thinking. Faced with Su Yue's persuasion, he could only smile and deal with it.
"I know, I will work hard to take orders from now on and won't slack off anymore."
Su Yue looked at Lin Li suspiciously, as if she didn't believe that Lin Li would work hard in the future. Do the work of online car-hailing and delivery.
"Please, can you give me some trust? Don't look at me like this, it will hurt my ambition..." Lin Li said with a smile.
"If you are enterprising, I don't have to be like an old lady, trying to persuade you over and over again." Su Yue's red lips opened slightly and she mumbled in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Lin Li asked, not hearing what Su Yue said clearly.
"I didn't say anything. Since you said so, you have to work hard!"
"Yes, yes, I will work hard." Lin Li said with a smile, while speaking I added something in my mind... I will work hard to hunt strange beasts and make myself stronger.
“If you feel that doing a job like online ride-hailing and hauling goods is too tiring and you don’t want to do it, you can tell me and I will ask a friend to find you an easier job. In terms of salary...” Before Su Yue finished speaking, Lin Li spoke.
"Okay, don't talk about my work anymore. Now I have free working hours, I think it's pretty good... and I make a lot of money." Lin Li heard Su Yue talk about introducing the job, Her head was a bit big, so she quickly interrupted her.
"Hmph..." Seeing Lin Li decisively rejecting her offer to introduce him to a job, Su Yue felt a little unhappy and couldn't help but snort.
At this time, the door to the private room was opened, and the leaving waitress walked in with her colleagues carrying dishes one after another.
"Please take your time. If you need anything else, you can call us." The waiter left after placing all the dishes on the table.
"After flying for several hours and not having lunch, I must be very hungry now. Come on, let's take a sip of soup first." Lin Li served Su Yue a bowl of loofah soup very enthusiastically.
Su Yue, who was originally in a unhappy mood, immediately felt better after seeing Lin Li's attitude. She picked up the spoon and took a sip of the soup.
"How's the loofah soup in this restaurant?" Lin Li asked.
"It tastes good." Su Yue replied.
"Try these vinegar fish fillets again." Lin Li added some vinegar fish fillets to Su Yue's bowl. After seeing her taste it, he added some boiled beef.
"Okay! I can just do it myself. You should be very hungry too, so hurry up and eat!" Su Yue, under Lin Li's considerate offensive of picking up food, explained the unhappy things just now. Completely forgotten.
Lin Li felt relieved when he saw that Su Yue's mood had completely changed.
He repeatedly rejected Su Yue's kindness in introducing work, but he was actually very embarrassed.
If he were still the same as he was a few months ago, just an ordinary person.
Although he has awakened to spirituality, he cannot become a practitioner in this life. In that case, there is a high probability that he will accept Su Yue's kindness and work at the place she introduced.
"Why are you in a daze? Eat quickly! This white chicken is very delicious, try it quickly." Su Yue saw Lin Li in a daze, called him, and then took a piece from the plate Put the chicken legs in his bowl.
“Oh.” After coming back to his senses, Lin Li picked up the chicken legs, dipped them in the sauce, and took a bite. He was immediately surprised by the delicious taste of the white chopped chicken.
"This chicken is really delicious."
"The ingredients used to make chicken in this restaurant are good, that's why it tastes like this." Su Yue commented with a smile.
Two days ago, she attended a banquet with her parents in the capital. There was also a dish of white chopped chicken on the table. The quality of the ingredients was far superior to the quality of the ingredients in this restaurant.
"I'll go to the market later to look for three-yellow chicken, and I'll make it at home." Lin Li finished eating the chicken legs, turned to look at Su Yue, who was eating boiled beef, and said.
"You make it at home?" Su Yue swallowed the food in her mouth and chuckled, "You have never made this white chicken before. If you make it at home, it will most likely not taste good. .”
"..." Lin Li fell silent after hearing this. He knew how good his craftsmanship was. If he cooked something he had never done before for the first time, the final outcome would definitely not be good. He knew this without even thinking about it.
Su Yue saw that Lin Li was silenced by what she said, and immediately smiled, "You go to the vegetable market and buy three-yellow chicken, and bring it to my house, and I will teach you how to make this dish. ”
“You Have you ever made this dish before?"
"Yes! This dish is quite simple to make, mainly because the ingredients are of good quality."
"Okay, then I'm looking forward to it. Chef Su took action..." Lin Li praised.
"What this chef does will definitely be top quality..." Su Yue said proudly, with an aura that was invincible in the world.
The two of them ate and chatted in the private room. After more than an hour, the two people walked out of the private room after eating and drinking.
Although the five dishes and one soup were quite large for two people, they still finished them.
Of course, most of the food went into Lin Li's stomach. After all, Su Yue didn't eat much. No matter how hungry she was, she could only eat that much.
