Chapter 540 (1/2)
Wang Ye happened to take the last number ticket. Therefore, when he entered the restaurant, there was nobody else waiting outside. And it was also the reason why the queuing machine was put into use.
With the machine being there, the customers wouldn’t be expectant anymore, thus they wouldn’t wait in vain, either.
“Hello, what would you like to eat?” As soon as Wang Ye entered the restaurant, Zhou Jia asked him.
“Um. Clear Broth Noodle Soup. That’s it.” Wang Ye was stupefied for an instant before he answered.
“Okay. Please pay first. The price is 268RMB, plus the Welcoming Set Meal worth 20RMB, the total amount is 288RMB. Thank you for eating here.” Zhou Jia smiled and said.
“Do you accept bank transfer?” Wang Ye asked.
“Of course.” Zhou Jia nodded the head.
“Alright. I’ll pay now.” Wang Ye scanned the two-dimensional code indicated by Zhou Jia with his phone and then said.
“Received. Your dish will be served very soon.” After Zhou Jia said that, she immediately reported the dish to Yuan Zhou.
“It’s really different.” Wang Ye got seated and felt slight discomfort all over his body.
In just five minutes, Zhou Jia walked to him again, carrying his Clear Broth Noodle Soup as well as the Welcoming Set Meal to him.
“Thank you.” Wang Ye said habitually.
“You are welcome.” Zhou Jia replied politely.
Then, Wang Ye lowered his head and started to eat the noodles. The noodles were very delicious and felt like more delicious than Ma Zhida’s descriptions, thus Wang Ye was immediately immersed in the delicacy. After he ate for a while, however, Wang Ye suddenly stopped and tilted his head to listen.
He could hear nothing but the conversations between customers. It was both boisterous and cozy in the restaurant. But apart from that, there was nothing else.
Then, Wang Ye felt more uncomfortable.
When he ate Sixian Rice Noodles formerly, the fat boss never asked him to pay by bank transfer and he only liked receiving cash. If he said thanks, the fat boss usually said, “No need for thanks. You are my old customer.”
These all made him feel familiar and relieved.
As for why he subconsciously stopped to listen, it was because a mother and her son always arrived at that time.
Sometimes, the mother reprimanded her son and sometimes complimented him. But every time, she spoke so loudly that as if she almost wanted everyone in the back alley to hear her.
It was no more than one year before he got used to hearing that mother.
“There’s nothing in common between the two restaurants.” Wang Ye looked at the delicious and chewy noodles in the bowl and suddenly revealed a smile.
However, he ate a little slower this time and started to taste the noodles carefully. At the same time, the words of other customers in the restaurant also passed into his hears gradually.
“Xi Li Hu Lu”, Wang Ye gulped down a mouthful of the noodles.
When Wang Ye was eating the noodles, Ma Zhida didn’t come over to him. He knew very well that whoever ate Boss Yuan’s dishes didn’t like to be bothered. However, he came over to him immediately once Wang Ye finished his meal.
“How do you like it? Is it so delicious that you even want to swallow your tongue up?” Ma Zhida asked with his hand around Wang Ye’s shoulders.
“It’s indeed very delicious.” Wang Ye nodded his head gently.
“So now you believe in me, don’t you?” Ma Zhida smiled complacently.
“Um. It’s just a little uncomfortable.” Wang Ye nodded his head and then said.
“Uncomfortable?” Ma Zhida didn’t understand what he meant.
“It is nothing. But it’s also a bit familiar.” Wang Ye complemented while smiling.
“What the hell are you talking about? It’s good as long as you feel it delicious. Let’s go back for a nap.” Ma Zhida put his hand around Wang Ye’s shoulder and walked toward his company.
“Thank you.” Wang Ye suddenly said that.
“Don’t be so nauseating. Let’s hurry back now.” Ma Zhida rubbed his arms with a contemptuous manner and said generously.
