Chapter 1329: Broth’s request for help
Yuan Zhou answered with a light “hmm.” Hearing that, Liu Tong became excited and hurriedly confirmed,””Boss Yuan, do you mean you agree?”
“He agreed.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“That’s great. Thank you, boss Yuan,” Liu Tong expressed his thanks.
Even if Liu Tong felt conflicted about Yuan Zhou, he was still quite happy to see Yuan Zhou agree.
It was the first time that Yuan Zhou had partic.i.p.ated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony of a private restaurant. As far as Liu Tong knew, Yuan Zhou had not been invited even though he had spent millions of Yuan.
“You’re welcome,” Yuan Zhou said.
“I’ll arrange someone to pick you up then. ” Liu Tong nodded and said.
“Sure, but I’ll be attending the opening banquet.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly.
“I can’t ask for more. I can’t ask for more. I hope boss Yuan won’t be stingy with teaching me.” Liu Tong said modestly.
“Alright, I will.” Yuan Zhou agreed with a nod.
/
“Thank you for the trouble, boss Yuan.” Liu Tong said.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
Liu Tong felt something was wrong when he heard Yuan Zhou’s answer, but he couldn’t put his finger on it. He could only say goodbye to Yuan Zhou with a weird feeling in his heart and then left.
Liu Tong didn’t react until he walked out of Taoxi road and got into his car.
“Just now, I said to trouble boss Yuan and then boss Yuan directly nodded his head?” Liu Tong muttered to himself in astonishment.
These words were clearly said out of politeness. Who would say ‘yes’ so directly?
Liu Tong couldn’t help but hold his forehead. Then, he shook his head, sighed, and said in a self-deprecating manner,”No wonder my cooking skills are not as good as boss Yuan ‘s. Judging from his honest way of speaking, I’m not as good as him.”
After taking one last look at Taoxi road, Liu Tong thought that he would show off his skills on the opening day and then drive away.
However, Yuan Zhou didn’t think that Liu Tong would think so much about the matter of him seriously responding to the trouble, because another person came to the restaurant.
The person who had come was none other than Cheng Cheng, who had clearly just left.
“Master, do you need my help?” Cheng Cheng poked his head in from outside the door and asked with a smile.
“Come in, what’s the point of knocking on the door?” Yuan Zhou said.
“Like the crow beast.” Cheng Han subconsciously retorted, but when he realized what was going on, he secretly stuck out his tongue in his heart.
However, Cheng Han still walked into the restaurant obediently and stood in front of Yuan Zhou with his legs straight.
“Why haven’t you left yet?” Yuan Zhou asked straightforwardly with a flat tone.
“Because I saw someone looking for Grandmaster, so I stayed to see if I could help.” Cheng Cheng said honestly.
“Zhou Jia is also here?” Yuan Zhou asked.
“No, no, I told her to go back. She has to read in the afternoon, and the exam is coming up.” Cheng Yu said.
“I don’t need your help here. Go back quickly.” Yuan Zhou said.
“But my dad will scold me if I go back too early.” Cheng Yu said.
“Then tell Cheng zhaomei that I’m not responsible for taking care of his daughter.” Yuan Zhou said.
“Grand Master, if I say this, you won’t see me tomorrow.” Cheng Yu said helplessly.
“Alright, stop joking. Go back quickly.” Yuan Zhou said solemnly.
“Alright, I’ll be going back then.” Cheng Cheng responded listlessly.
“Okay, be careful on the road.” Yuan Zhou instructed her as usual.
Cheng Han nodded his head and then walked out of the restaurant. However, the moment he walked out of the restaurant, he saw a gray puppy with long fur squatting on the side of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.
“Eh? It’s broth. Why are you sitting here today?” Cheng Han took two steps forward and stood in front of broth. Then he squatted down and was about to touch broth’s head.
The dog, broth, was also very familiar with Cheng Cheng. He would usually let her Pat his head. After all, broth had always acted cute in front of outsiders to survive.
But this time, when Cheng Han reached out his hand, he whimpered and stepped back, avoiding Cheng Han’s hand.
“What’s wrong?” Cheng Cheng retracted his hand and looked at broth with a puzzled expression.
With just one look, he could tell that there was a problem. As the dog that looked after the house of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, broth had always liked to keep the restaurant clean. This could be seen from the fact that Cheng Han would occasionally go to the river nearby to take a bath and swim.
Besides, the fur on broth’s body was gray and long, but it was always clean.
Its fur was s.h.i.+ny and its Four Paws were very clean. Broth even knew how to grind its long nails. It wouldn’t even sit on the dirtier places. It could be said that it loved cleanliness very much.
However, it could be said that broth was in a very sorry state now.
Broth’s long gray fur was covered with a lot of dust and brown mud. The fur on his mouth was also stained with mud.
The most serious injuries were on his four claws. The nails of the fleshy paw pads were turned out, and a patch of fur on his front claws was bald, revealing the tender red meat inside.
Even the tail that was usually wagging happily and fluffy was stuck together.
“What is this? Broth, did you get into a fight?” Cheng Cheng asked, worried.
However, the only response he got was broth’s Black eyes and a soft whimper.
This made Cheng Yu even more worried.
One of the reasons why Cheng Cheng was worried was that broth never came to the main entrance of the shop during the day. Even if it wanted to act cute, it would eat at the intersection of Taoxi road.
Second, this was the first time Cheng Han had seen broth in such a sorry state since he came to the restaurant half a year ago.
“What’s the matter?” Yuan Zhou’s voice came from behind Cheng Han.
At that time, Yuan Zhou had already washed up and changed his clothes.
After warning Cheng Han to leave quickly, Yuan Zhou had gone upstairs to wash up and change his clothes. But when he finished was.h.i.+ng up and went downstairs, he saw Cheng Han who hadn’t left yet.
When he got closer, he saw broth in a sorry state.
Yuan Zhou had never seen broth in such a state before, except when he found it was sick.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou knitted his brows and asked directly.
“Grand Master, I don’t know either. I just saw broth sitting here as soon as I went out. It seemed to be injured, but he didn’t let me touch it or look at it.” Cheng Yu said worriedly.
However, just as Cheng Han was talking, broth, who had been sitting quietly all the time, stood up and ran to Yuan Zhou’s feet quickly, barking.
“Woof woof woof!” Broth’s voice sounded very sorrowful and mixed.
“You’re looking for me?” Yuan Zhou slightly squatted down and asked while looking at the dog face of broth.
“Woof woof.” Broth barked again as if it was certain.
“If there’s anything, you can bring me there. After all, I don’t understand your language.” Yuan Zhou said again.
“Wuwu, woof woof.” Broth whimpered a few times and then barked a few times.
The man and the dog seemed to be communicating.
Cheng Yu couldn’t help but say,””Grand Master, can broth understand what you’re saying in such a complicated way?”
“Yes, broth can understand.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head affirmatively.
Right at that moment, broth started to run two steps forward as if it really understood what Yuan Zhou said. Then, it turned its head and looked at Yuan Zhou, as if it was waiting for him to catch up.
Cheng Cheng also wanted to follow them subconsciously, but he was directly driven away by broth, who bared its teeth.
That’s right. When Yuan Zhou caught up with him, broth ran forward to lead the way. However, when Cheng Han raised his foot and prepared to follow, he was refused by broth.
“I’ll go and take a look. You can go back now. Broth will be fine. ” After Yuan Zhou said that, he followed broth and walked away.
