Chapter 13 (2/2)

Monkey and Ali became dumbfounded. What a ridiculous rule this was. Was there really a type of person that turn down a chance to earn more money?

“Are you sure I can’t get one more? Look, I am a friend of Sun’s.” Monkey inquired desperately as he scratched his ears and cheeks.

“Yes, you are my friend. But so what? Even I could only have one serving per meal and you are thinking of ordering two?” Sun Ming stared at Monkey feigning anger.

“Boss, look at me. I am sick today. Could you please…?” The large man Ali, surprisingly thought of a trick to show his weakness to win the sympathy of the enemy.

But Yuan Zhou was adamant about his decision. He said with a serious expression, “Sorry, a rule is a rule.”

“Boss, I admire you. You are a talented man. Nowadays, there are not many that stick to their principles.” Ali said.

Monkey also gave Yuan Zhou a thumb up. He also admired the people who stick to their rules in the face of money. After all, there were many in today’s society that would ignore their bottom line simply for money.

Actually what Yuan Zhou was thinking at that moment was, “F*ck this rule!!! This is all money! Money! Money!”

“All right. I finally know your intentions. Let’s go share this pain with others.” Monkey said to Sun Ming while walking out toward the door.

“How could you say sharing the pain? We are actually providing an address where delicious meals can be found. Ali, let’s go.” Sun Ming also followed.

“Ok.” When Ali heard there was no more serving, he resumed the indolent manner. The three friends walked together outside.

“Take care, my friends.” Yuan Zhou stood at the interior of the table and said.

“Boss, we’ll come again next time.” Monkey turned his head around and said. Walking in the middle, Sun Ming waved his hand to Yuan Zhou while Ali nodded his head with a smile to Yuan Zhou, following the other two friends.

“Ok. You guys are always welcomed.” Yuan Zhou also responded with smile.

It might be his lucky day today. There came another guest at about 1:00 in the afternoon. This was a pretty guest.

Dressed in a black waistcoat and a smoky gray knee-length one-piece dress, the girl with a middle-parting long hairstyle had a beautiful complexion with a dabble of faint makeup. Carrying a white enamel leather bag in her hand, with a delicate and cute face, she gave off a youthful charm.

“Duk Duk Duk”

The sound of her white high heels against the tiles gave rise to an assortment of musical notes.

She took a seat and said directly, “Give me the menu, please.” She had a graceful voice with a slight accent, seemingly a belle from Southern China belle.

“We only serve Egg Fried Rice here. Please look at the price first. If you feel it is acceptable, I will prepare one for you.” Yuan Zhou looked at the pretty girl and said.

“Hum? Ok.” The girl was confused for a moment and then looked at the price after saying that.

“188? No problem. Let me try if your culinary skills deserve such a price.” Her tone carried some dissatisfaction, but she didn’t reveal too much anger, merely replying with a cold tone.

“Don’t worry. You won’t be disappointed.” Seeing that the pretty girl agreed to try, Yuan Zhou got a little excited, thus he replied with confidence.

“Ok. Hurry up. I need go to work shortly.” When the pretty girl found this young boss was so confident, she didn’t pay more attention to the food, instead taking out her mobile phone to check for new message

Yuan Zhou stood at a covert place not far away and admired the pretty girl. Her graceful dining posture made him feel hungry as well. One’s appetite could be enhanced just by watching beautiful women. This was a sentence passed down from one generation to another, a delicate face could also be a feast – for eyes.
