[QTC] MBDT Chapter 115

The next day, Xiao Yan appeared in Xingxin Restaurant again.

As soon as Wang Xiaoyu saw Xiao Yan, she immediately found Bei Yutang, took the order from her hand, and winked at her, “Leave it to me here, leave it to you there.”

Bei Yutang looked in the opposite direction as Wang Xiaoyu prompted and saw Xiao Yan sitting near the window.

The proprietress also came to join in the fun and said, “Yutang, go and order for the guests.”

Bei Yutang was speechless. They were labeling Xiao Yan to her. In other words, there is really nothing between her and him.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Same as usual.” Xiao Yan ordered three dishes as always.

This person is really strange. He has been eating those three dishes for so long, and he is not tired of them.

Bei Yutang unconsciously blurted out: “Today’s fish is very fresh, would you like some?”

She thought he would refuse, but unexpectedly he agreed easily.

“Okay.”

“Do you want it to be braised or steamed?”

Xiao Yan thought for a moment, “Steamed.”

“Wait a moment.”

Bei Yutang came back with the menu but was intercepted by the proprietress with great interest.

Seeing that the two of them talked a few more words than usual today, the proprietress’s desire for gossip started again. She came forward happily and asked, “Yutang, he is different today.”

Bei Yutang glanced at the proprietress’ expression of not taking it too seriously and said calmly: “It’s different.”

Upon hearing this, the proprietress suddenly became interested, and even Wang Xiaoyu who was beside her pricked up her ears.

“He ordered an extra portion of steamed whole fish today.”

The proprietress, Wang Xiaoyu: …

Wang Xiaoyu muttered, “Yutang, that’s too bad.”

She knew that this was not what they wanted to hear, but she did it deliberately.

Ever since Xiao Yan appeared, everyone in the Xingxin Restaurant began to place bets on how many days the owner would eat here.

“I think five days.” Guo Yang raised a hand and bet fifty cents.

Wang Xiaoyu then deposited two cents, “I think three days, three days is about right.”

The head chef also came to join in the fun and took out two yuan, “It must be ten days and a half.”

The proprietress said with dissatisfaction: “Say the specific time.”

“Ten days, ten days. With my skills, I will definitely let him eat for another ten days.”

Then, everyone looked at Bei Yutang.

The proprietress said with a smile: “Yutang, how many days do you think he will come?”

“I don’t have money to place a bet.” Bei Yutang spread her hands.

“It’s okay, I owe you first.”

“Can I not place a bet?” Bei Yutang discussed it.

Everyone shook their heads in unison.

Well, in that case… Bei Yutang walked toward the table where Xiao Yan was sitting.

“Is something wrong?” Xiao Yan put down the chopsticks in his hands and raised his head to look at her.

“Can you lend me one yuan?”

Xiao Yan was stunned and took out a ten-yuan note from his pocket, “Only ten yuan, no change.”

Bei Yutang did not mind either. She put the ten yuan in her pocket and asked before leaving, “Can I ask you a question?”

“Speak.”

“I would like to ask, how many days will you eat here?” Bei Yutang asked.

“Four days.”

“Thank you.”

Bei Yutang slapped ten yuan on the counter, “I’ll deposit ten yuan, and he will stay for four days. Sister Zhou, it’s time for you to give me all the money. Four days, but he said it himself.”

Everyone in the Xingxin Restaurant looked at her speechlessly.

Guo Yang shouted: “Sister Yutang, you are cheating. This is a foul.”

“You didn’t say that you weren’t allowed to ask. Xiao Guo, I’ll teach you a word, soldiers never tire of deceit. Bring it, bring it, and hand over all the money.” Bei Yutang smiled and began to ‘collect’ their money.
