Chapter 273: Moral Quality and Luck

“Our boss will stand treat?” Zheng Xing said smilingly suddenly.

“No problem. But only soup dumplings,” Boss Zhao agreed readily.

“Our boss finally becomes generous this time,” said Lin Cong with a faint smile.

“Yeah. I heard the bonus will be as high as 100 thousand RMB and will be soon distributed to us,” Boss Zhao suddenly spoke about the bonus of the mission that they had just finished this time.

“You decide how to allocate that money, boss,” said Zheng Xing straightforwardly.

“It doesn’t matter for me, either. My wife treats me very well and fully respects my opinion.” Lin Cong smiled in a free and easy way.

“Ok. I’m planning to put the bonus and the subsidies together. Coincidentally, the subsidies haven’t been given to us, either,” Boss Zhao looked at the other two and said while smiling.

“No problem. Please stop talking about anything else,” Zheng Xing especially instructed.

“Since we have reached an agreement on what to do next, I nevertheless feel this is pretty good.” Lin Cong touched out the red rope from the pocket and attached it to his wrist.

“I also feel it’s good.” With a smile, Boss Zhao followed suit.

Nevertheless, Zheng Xing just shrugged and then showed to them his left wrist with the red rope on, indicating he had already worn it.

The bright red rope and the bronze-colored arm formed a sharp contrast, yet appeared to be well-matched.

“You did it quickly.” Lin Cong took a glimpse at Zheng Xing roughly.

“Of course, I’m faster than you,” said Zheng Xing proudly.

“Shall we stand treat and invite the girl to have a meal?” Boss Zhao proposed.

“No problem. We will pay the money together,” the other two people said in one voice this time.

“Great. Let’s go.” Boss Zhao directly made a turn and headed for Yuan Zhou’s restaurant with them.

Luckily, it was the time of break today. After all, they had stayed up all night long for two days continuously and hence needed one day off to have a good rest.

When they got to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, Yuan Zhou happened to be sitting at the door and waiting for the last few requests. With the suggestion box beside him, he nevertheless wasn’t idle at all. Instead, he was busy with sculpting the radishes.

“Boss Yuan, I hope you can do us a favor.” Boss Zhao uttered first.

“One moment, please.” After that, Yuan Zhou continued his work.

He was carefully sculpting the broad-leaved epiphyllum out of the radish. Along with the swing of the kitchen knife, the beautiful lineament of the jade white petals gradually came into being.

“One of Boss Yuan’s rules is not speaking while sculpting the flowers.” Zheng Xing stopped Zheng Xing who wanted to say something.

“So many weird rules!” Lin Cong muttered in a low voice and then waited there obediently while standing.

“Shua Shua Shua”, there was only the sound of Yuan Zhou waving the kitchen knife left in the quiet street.

A kitchen knife was used naturally and deftly by Yuan Zhou as if it were one of his fingers. The broad-leaved epiphyllum in his hands likewise revealed the genuinely tender lineament.

“What a damn miracle. Even the kitchen knife can be used to sculpt flowers?” said Lin Cong surprisedly.

“He’s playing with the knife so well.” Zheng Xing also sighed with emotion. There was a huge difference between reading the description on the internet and seeing the process on site.

“Luckily, he’s only using the knife for sculpting.” Boss Zhao really wanted to wipe the perspiration on his forehead.

Judging from the proficiency of him playing with the knife and the reflected light of the incisive blade in the sun, it was definitely an extremely sharp knife.

The way Yuan Zhou played with the knife reminded them of the equally swift and fierce manner of the Tartar waiter who spoke the Lanzhou dialect in the martial arts film of New Dragon Gate Inn.

However, Boss Yuan looked more handsome than that guy.

“Done. What’s up?” Yuan Zhou put away the kitchen knife carefully and put the broad-leaved epiphyllum in the bouquet on the flower rack. After that, he stood up and asked.

“There has surprisingly already been a bunch of the sculpted flowers!” Lin Cong looked at the bunch of broad-leaved epiphyllum with a mass of blossoms on the flower rack in surprise. The verdant leaves were vivid while the lily flowers were elegant. Every flower had its own distinctive shape as if it were real.

“We want you to do us a favor.” Boss Zhao diverted his attention away from the sculpted flowers and then asked Yuan Zhou while looking at him.

“I might not be able to help,” said Yuan Zhou conservatively.
