Chapter 149 Long Xiaoyun Is Dead? (2/2)
Xiao Bing walked downstairs with his hands holding Yezi's while the maid was cleaning the living room. She opened her eyes wide as she saw the two. ”It can't be so fast. Even stripping off clothes takes longer than this. Does the future master have a problem...”
”Mrs. Liu, what are you looking at?” asked Yezi out of curiosity.
”No-nothing. I'm working.”
After they had their breakfast, they drove to the noodle house and parked the car outside.
After the expansion, the noodle house was more than double its previous size, and it still had the most customers on this street, even though Xiao Bing had not been there for a long time.
Everyone was busy with their work when Xiao Bing walked in. They all greeted Yezi with happy smiles on their faces when they saw her. And Yezi volunteered to wait tables. Xiao Bing then began making lamian. Wang Guifang stood in the center of the hall and spoke loudly. ”All of the customers today are lucky because our boss is here and he can make lamian for everyone. Anyone who wants to eat lamian, please give us your order.”
Soon afterward, those in the noodle house burst into applause. Though other restaurants could offer delicious food, they had no special courses like the lamian here. No one would give up the opportunity since Xiao Bing was rarely here. In the blink of an eye, Wang Guifang received more than 10 orders.
Sweat began beading up on Yezi's forehead as she worked so hard. One of the guests whispered to another, ”Why does this new waitress look like our chairman of the board?”
”Hush. Don't be so loud. She is our chairman.”
”Wow. The chairman is waitressing and serving us food. Will she deduct our salary?”
”Don't be so loud. How is the chairman supposed to know us? Wait, I remember that her boyfriend is the owner of this noodle house. Look, isn't that kung fu cook her boyfriend... It seems that we should pay more visits to this noodle house. The taste of the noodles is not important. We might get promoted if the owner of this noodle house has a good impression of us.”
With Ye Xiaoxi and Xiao Bing's help, the others felt the burden on their shoulders had greatly lifted, and the business there became better and better. Xiao Bing could barely take a minute's rest. Zhang Jing approached him and spoke discreetly. ”Today might be the busiest day for us. If the costumers keep coming here like this, we will soon be rich.”
”We might also die of exhaustion if every day is like this.”
Then the two looked at each other and smiled.
After they finished work, they began enjoying their dinner. Su Xiaoxiao helped with work after school and she joined them at the table.
When they had just begun eating and drinking, Xiao Bing got a call from Master Hou. ”The car Long Xiaoyun was in has exploded on the highway. He's been confirmed dead,” said Master Hou briefly.
Frowning, Xiao Bing asked, ”You didn't do it?”
”No!”
Su Xiaoxaio and Yezi both fixed their eyes on Xiao Bing when he hung up the phone. Xiao Bing fell silent for a moment and put on a smile. ”Bi Tingting will have a concert here the day after tomorrow and I want to take all of you there.”
”Really?” The Barbie-like Maggie almost jumped. ”I want to go as well.”
”You like Bi Tingting as well?” asked Xiao Bing with a smile.
”Who's Bi Tingting? Is she more beautiful than Xiaoxiao? She must be some kind of celebrity. I need to see her, too. I have never been to a concert before.”
Xiao Bing became curious. Gao Fei and Maggie claimed that they were brother and sister, but from Xiao Bing's point of view, Gao Fei had always treated Maggie like a princess. Hence, Xiao Bing once had an assumption that Maggie was a Missy from a certain big house. She sneaked away for some reasons that Xiao Bing didn't know. But he was certain that Gao Fei was her protector. But if that was the truth, what kind of a Missy could she be if she didn't know what a concert was?
”Emm... Maybe she is overprotected and she's actually very young.”
Xiao Bing pondered for a second and grinned. ”No problem. Every girl here will have the opportunity to go to the concert the day after tomorrow.”
”Really? All hail Brother Bing,” Li Hong shouted first.
The girls shouted and leaped with joy. Almost everyone present was a fan of Bi Tingting, except for Wang Guifang, who barely knew anything about entertainment. Hence, it seemed that Bi Tingting was a truly influential person now.
Gao Fei suddenly spoke. ”I want to go as well.”
Xiao Bing cast her a glance of surprise at Gao Fei, who said, ”There will be so many people there. I need to protect my sister.”
There was a hint of a smile on Xiao Bing's lips. ”Okay. There happens to be one ticket left.”
While everyone laughed and jumped with joy, Ye Xiaoxi cast Xiao Bing a glimpse from time to time. She felt worried as she recalled the anxiety in Xiao Bing's eyes when he was on the phone.
