92 He Confessed?
“Dad, you and Mom have managed the restaurant so well. How can it be useless?” Yuan Xiao walked forward and held Shen Hai’s hand. “Don’t feel burdened. Auntie’s family’s issue is not your fault. Hurry up and open the restaurant. It’s almost time to eat. Business is more important.”
Feng Mei and Shen Hai felt that Yuan Xiao’s words made sense. They composed themselves and prepared to open for business.
Yuan Xiao first went to the shop next door to take a look at the renovation problem. She felt that if they could hack the wall in the middle, the shop at home would expand quite a lot, and the turnover should double. It was just that there were too few waiters in the shop.
Just as she was thinking about her future plans, Yuan Xiao saw a somewhat familiar figure walking into her family’s restaurant.
“Meng Zhu?” Yuan Xiao felt that the little girl who had just entered was the girl he had seen in the Fang family. She was wearing a sweater and a short skirt today, making her look even more petite and cute.
Yuan Xiao felt that Meng Zhu was not as simple as she seemed, so she hurried back to the shop.
“Yuan Xiao, what a coincidence. Is this your family’s restaurant?” Meng Zhu had already ordered a few of the restaurant’s signature dishes. When she saw Yuan Xiao walk in, she sat on a chair and greeted her warmly.
Yuan Xiao would never believe that a young lady from a rich family like Meng Zhu would patronize a small restaurant like theirs.
Moreover, this girl was obviously not that smart. The question just now had completely exposed the purpose of her trip. If she had not secretly investigated, how could she know that this was her store?
“Yeah, what a coincidence. Did you come alone?” Yuan Xiao had already seen the particularly eye-catching luxury car on the other side of the road.
“Yes, I’m shopping by myself. I’m a little hungry, so I came in to eat something.” Meng Zhu was obviously not used to the environment in the shop. This was her first time entering a restaurant without a lobby.
“My mother’s culinary skills are not bad. Eat more later.” Yuan Xiao sat opposite Meng Zhu. She felt that this girl’s emotions were written all over her face. It was the same in the Fang family yesterday. She had revealed her obvious hostility towards her and did not seem to be scheming.
However, Fang Yao’s previous evaluation of Meng Zhu was that she was terrifying. Yuan Xiao naturally would not underestimate a girl who could make Fang Yao afraid.
Meng Zhu smiled and nodded. She was a little disgusted by the surrounding environment. She had been looking around outside for a long time just now. There was nothing special about this shop.
“Could it be that your family owns a chain store?” Meng Zhu really could not believe that Yuan Xiao’s parents really ran such a small business. She heard that Yuan Xiao had lived in the Yuan Family for a period of time. Meng Zhu thought that her family background was similar to hers, but she did not expect it to be so shabby.
“No, it’s just this one, and it hasn’t been opened for long.” Yuan Xiao could tell that Meng Zhu was surprised by her family background, but she did not care at all. No matter how poor she was, every penny was earned by her parents through hard work. Yuan Xiao felt at ease.
Meng Zhu still could not believe it. How could Yuan Xiao’s family background be compared to hers? However, Auntie Wei Lan was still very enthusiastic about her.
Meng Zhu knew that the Fang family would not care about Yuan Xiao’s background, but in her eyes, Yuan Xiao was really not worthy of Brother Fang Ming.
“How long have you known Brother Fang Ming?” Meng Zhu could not help but ask.
“A few months, less than half a year.” Yuan Xiao did not know why Meng Zhu asked her how long he had known Fang Ming. Perhaps she was curious about when he had met Fang Yao’s family.
“It’s only been a few months!” Meng Zhu almost stood up from her chair. She had grown up in the Fang family since she was young, but Fang Ming’s attitude towards her had always been lukewarm. Yuan Xiao had only known Fang Ming for a few months, but Brother Fang Ming had actually taken the initiative to put food in her bowl and was even willing to send her home every day.
Meng Zhu did not understand why she had lost.
“Then what confidence do you have to marry into the Fang family?” Meng Zhu was extremely jealous. She really could not speak to Yuan Xiao calmly.
When Yuan Xiao saw that the little girl could no longer pretend, she slowly glanced at the kitchen.
Her parents were very busy, and the number of customers in the shop gradually increased. The only waiter was busy serving the dishes and could not care about them for the time being.
“I didn’t agree to him. Why should I marry into the Fang family?” Yuan Xiao took a sip of the drink Meng Zhu had ordered and found it funny when she saw her going crazy. When this little girl was angry, her expression was very cute.
“Agree to him?” Meng Zhu caught the main point in Yuan Xiao’s words. “What do you mean by agree to him? Could it be that he has already confessed to you?”
Meng Zhu did not dare to imagine what kind of expression Fang Ming, who usually looked mature and steady, would have when he confessed to a girl. Would he be embarrassed, nervous, and hug and kiss this girl in front of him who was about her age?
