Chapter 246 (2/2)

“Did you do the cleaning?” Yuan Zhou continued to ask.

“Yes. The area at the front door has been very clean and we only cleaned the backdoor area.” Zhou Jia thought Yuan Zhou was checking their previous work, so she answered very carefully.

“Since you have finished the work I demanded, then you deserve the payment.” while Yuan Zhou was handing the money to Zhou Jia, he said primly.

“Humm.” Zhou Jia vaguely felt Boss Yuan’s words did make sense. Then she received the money in a daze and then left.

After all customers were gone, Yuan Zhou couldn’t wait to take his pulling cart and walk out of the restaurant.

“Boss, 5 kgs of radishes. Please make it a round number,” Yuan Zhou headed straight for the stall that he had often visited to buy vegetables and directly said when he arrived.

“No problem. I have kept a lot of curiously shaped radishes for you.” The boss was still the grandma. As soon she saw Yuan Zhou, she said smilingly.

“Thank you.” Seeing the boss take out many curiously shaped radishes as said and packed them in his bag, Yuan Zhou expressed his gratitude with a nod.

After that, Yuan Zhou carefully pulled his small cart with a sound of “Zhi Ya, Zhi Ya” and returned to his restaurant.

The first thing he did after arriving at the restaurant was to move a chair from upstairs. Then he began to sit by the door and sculpt the radish. Of course, the flower shelf was also moved outside.

While taking a radish with a big belly in his hands, Yuan Zhou first observed its shape carefully and made a composition in his mind according to the methods taught by Wu Hai. Then, he began to cut away the skin and prepared to sculpt the flowers.

After the skin was cut away, the round radish appeared bigger and more lovable.

Following a sound of “Shua Shua”, he waved the miracle kitchen knife around the radish quickly and concisely. Then, the skin of the radish fell in the trash bin at his feet by pieces gradually.

Theoretically, it would be pleasant and enjoyable to watch Yuan Zhou sculpt. Nevertheless, Man Man who just arrived didn’t have the mood. Naturally, she was slightly stunned while watching but once she thought of her matter, she couldn’t continue to watch.

“Boss Yuan, please do me a favor,” said Man Man anxiously.

However, Yuan Zhou’s reaction was still No Reaction.

“Boss Yuan, Boss Yuan, I really need your help. Please.” Man Man said persistently.

“Wait a moment.” Yuan Zhou eventually responded this time, yet not turning his head to her at all.

“God. Can you just sculpt it after a while? I really have something urgent to ask for your help.” Man Man remained anxious.

However, Yuan Zhou still didn’t stop the work and just continued to sculpt the radish carefully. Nor did the speed of his action become slow.

Man Man knew that Yuan Zhou was very easy to get along with. Besides, they knew each other and were considered to be friends. Basically, when she needed his help, he had never refused her. It was nevertheless the first time that Yuan Zhou didn’t even listen to her.

“This is the Jinyaolou Peony, isn’t it? It has 880 petals. It definitely needs much longer time. Please, couldn’t you help me first?” Man Man lowered her head and looked at Yuan Zhou’s hands before she said that.

“Quiet, please.” Having raised his head and taken a look at Man Man’s face, Yuan Zhou lowered the head and continued with his sculpting.

“Hey…” Man Man shouted again persistently.

The person who answered her every time she called him nevertheless continued his work as if he had heard nothing, no matter how hard Man Man talked to him.

Not until five minutes later did Yuan Zhou take a deep breath and set down the radish, saying, “What’s up?”

“Finally. Dear Boss Yuan, I need to accept delivery of materials and hence need your help to check the quality. Never did I expect you not to answer me for so long.” Man Man was a little angry. The person who quickly answered her during normal times nevertheless didn’t respond to her at the crucial moment.

“Don’t disturb me when I sculpt,” said Yuan Zhou seriously.

“You don’t allow disturbance while cooking before and now while sculpting. In my opinion, you don’t have your own spare time at all.” Man Man said in a tough tone.

“No, for neither occasions.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head solemnly.

It wasn’t unreasonable for him to be single until now…

“Ok, got it. Then can you help me now?” After a sigh, Man Man agreed. Only then did Yuan Zhou stand up.

People who got up on the wrong side of the bed were dreadful while Yuan Zhou, when his hobby was disturbed, was equally dreadful too.
