Chapter 72: Yuan Zhou’s Counterattack

“Boss Yuan finally opens the door.” Ling Hong went up and greeted him.

“Yeap.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“Ok, you can all leave now.” Ling Hong clapped his hands and immediately the band stopped playing.

Instantly, the whole world fell silent.

Now, everyone felt that the term quiet was a wonderful adjective.

“Luckily the young master got up. But he was most unlikely to fall asleep uner such circumstances. My ear almost became deaf.” The grandpa that stood at the back rubbed his ears and heaved a sigh.

“Boss Yuan, you have prepared the Soup Dumplings today, right?” Ling Hong asked luodly subconsciously.

“No. It’s too late. I don’t have enough time.” Seeing that the band had stopped, Yuan Zhou turned around and went back into the restaurant, letting out a slight sigh of relief.

In just that small time span, Yuan Zhou felt his world nearly exploded due to that deafening din. Fortunately for him, the noise could not be heard from inside.”

“Hey, Boss Yuan, can you prepare them right now? I can wait for you.” Ling Hong shouted aloud.

“You can lower your voice. My ears are going to be deaf soon.” Though Tank had a body full of muscles and had a rough appearance, he was, nevertheless, a handsome man who enjoys peace and quiet. Even he complained about Ling Hong’s loud voice.

“Alright. I know you prefer quiet. I just got used to the noisy surrounding just now.” Reminded by Tank, Ling Hong changed his voice to normal.

“Time is insufficient,” Yuan Zhou stood back to his usual position and said gently.

“Ok, fine. Then can we eat the Clear Broth Noodle Soup this morning?” Ling Hong easily gave up on his favorite Soup Dumplings.

The reason was obviously not because he suddenly didn’t feel like eating it. It was because Yuan Zhou’s current expression was fairly scary. Ling Hong also knew that the method he used to wake Yuan Zhou up was rather unaccceptable; however, he couldn’t find any displeasure at all from his face, only a calm expression. This made Ling Hong unable to stay calm anymore.

He had thought Yuan Zhou would at least show a sullen expression, or in more serious cases, maybe swear. But right now he acted as if nothing had happened. That, nevertheless, made Ling Hong not dare to continue his query about the Soup Dumplings.

“Boss Yuan, what time do you usually get up for cooking the Soup Dumplings?” Wu Hai suddenly asked.

“At 6:00,” Yuan Zhou answered the question simply and quickly.

“Ok. Offer me the Clear Broth Noodle Soup and beef mince today.” Wu Hai also started to order his dishes.

Likewise, the grandpa had to take the second best choice and choose the Clear Broth Noodle Soup.

“All right. Wait a moment.” Yuan Zhou turned around, begining to prepare dishes.

On the other side, Wu Hai started to wink at Ling Hong and whispered, “Do you understand now?”

“Yeap, I understand. But will he blacklist me?” Ling Hong had understood clearly what Wu Hai meant once he opened the mouth. However, he needed to clearly understand the consequences.

“Don’t worry. According to my observations, Boss Yuan only appears aloof. He is actually very easy to reason with. Last time, a guy actually bought Egg Fried Rice from another restaurant and came here to eat it. Boss Yuan still gave him a permission. As long as we don’t go against his rules, everything will be fine.” Wu Hai revealed an expression of “Trust me and follow my advice”.

“Ok, that’s fine. Let me try again.” Ling Hong agreed to Wu Hai’s proposal decisively.

The reason was, of course, also due to his investigation. He found that Yuan Zhou indeed had a mild temper. For example, he hadn’t revealed any discontented or furious expressions over what he did this morning until now.

Having heard everything they talked, the edges of Yuan Zhou’s mouth curled up. He thought in his heart, “No matter how rich you brat is, you still wouldn’t be able to wake me up.”

That’s right. Who said Yuan Zhou wasn’t angry? Yuan Zhou was so angry that he almost wanted to hack him with a kitchen knife. However, he had gotten used to pretending to be aloof, thus he was too lazy to curse now. He would only use the simplest method to let the guy suffer the consequences of his own actions.

With the belief that two heads are better than one, the several people boisterously agreed upon a plan. Even the grandpa was involved, pointing out the most realistic problem. Thus one could see how attractive the Soup Dumplings were.

“How do you plan to solve the public nuisance problem?” The grandpa hit the nail on the head.

“Don’t worry. I will go to each family in the neighborhood and pass them 100 RMB later today to compensate them for getting up an hour earlier tomorrow. It’s just for one hour, so it shouldn’t be a problem.” Ling Hong answered him confidently.
