Dessert War [Ancient and Modern]

Ji is actually a pastry chef! "Zhong Ting stood by the cooking table and watched Tangyu's skillful and delicate way of making pastries, and couldn't help but admire.

"Xiao Tang is Mr. Shen's younger brother. He has a long history of education, and a famous teacher produces a high-ranking apprentice!" Lu Shi happily talked to the side.

"Oh, you are Boss Shen's younger brother?" Zhong Ting's eyes lit up, and he intentionally followed Tang Yu's side to help, chatting casually.

Both of them were about the same age, Zhong Ting was slightly older than Tang Yu by two years, so they got to know each other quickly within a few days.Tang Yu felt that he was a little different from the other teenagers from the orphanage. Others were more or less reserved and shy, and most of them were introverted, while Zhong Ting was very cheerful, talkative and laughing, very gregarious, and welcomed wherever he went .

But Tang Yu also felt that this person was a bit strange, he would always ask himself about Shen Lie intentionally or unintentionally, what do you usually like to eat?What book do you like to read?What kind of sports do you like?What kind of music do you like to listen to and what kind of movies do you like to watch... Just ask once or twice, but if you ask too many times, Tangyu can't help but get suspicious.Especially every time when Shen Lie visited the store, the way Zhong Ting looked at Shen Lie made his heart skip a beat, can you stop being so blatant!

With this discovery, Tangyu's impression of Zhong Ting plummeted like a mountain waterfall, especially Zhong Ting, who was surprisingly thick-skinned, and would surround Shen Lie every time he came.However, Shen Lie talked to him quite a lot. Several times, Tangyu listened to them talking about French architecture, Italian sculpture, painting, and the Renaissance, but she couldn't get in a word, and could only watch them. Talking and laughing happily, my heart suddenly has mixed feelings.

There are many books about these things in Shen Lie's study room, but Tangyu, an ancient who traveled from other worlds, naturally knows nothing about the development of European history and art, so he only flipped through those books a few times and appreciated some of them. Beautiful pictures are enough.If I had known this earlier, it would have been better if I played less games and read more books, Tangyu thought with regret, so that now her eyes are so dark that she can't even talk to her.

When he was secretly annoyed, he heard Zhong Ting asking: "Boss Shen, do you have a girlfriend?"

Seeing Shen Lie shaking his head with a smile, Zhong Ting asked again: "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Shen Lie glanced at Tang Yu subconsciously, but this time he neither shook his head nor nodded, but smiled and said to Zhong Ting: "Why, you want to recommend yourself?"

Hearing this, Tangyu's alarm bells rang loudly, and as expected, she heard that shameless guy in Zhong Ting with a big smile and said: "That's exactly what I mean, Mr. Shen, I like you very much since the first time we met. , do you think my style is your favorite style?"

Shen Lie had a surprised smile on his face, "Zhong Ting, I really didn't expect the education in the Chinese Welfare Institute to be so open? How old are you? Are you sure about your sexual orientation?"

"Mr. Shen, I'm 21, and my sexual orientation can't influence my right to pursue love and happiness. Do you think my background in the orphanage is low?" Zhong Ting's eyes were shining brightly, and he said straight Looking at Shen Lie, he spoke frankly and straightforwardly.

After these few days of communication, Shen Lie already knew that the boy in front of him was a thoughtful and assertive person, he never underestimated the idea of ​​his origin, and even appreciated his uniqueness.Moreover, he also saw Zhong Ting's meaning for him early in the morning. This person has never concealed his admiration and longing for him in front of him.But he would confess his love to himself so quickly, which made Shen Lie a little unexpected.

Before he could respond, Tang Yu, who couldn't hold back her breath, dragged him out of the restaurant.

"Brother! When are you going to send those guys from the orphanage away?" Tang Yu looked menacing, like a kitten whose hair was blown all over.

Shen Lie looked at him for a while, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth, and said leisurely: "Tang Yu, are you jealous of Zhong Ting?"

"Brother belongs to me alone, tell Zhong Ting to get out!" The boy's sweet and immature voice revealed a bit of toughness that was rare.

Shen Lie smiled, took out a few green notes from his pocket, waved them in front of the furious kitten, and easily diverted his attention: "Today is the last day of National Day, I asked someone to I took a few pass cards for the rides, do you want me to take you there?"

Could it be possible, Tang Yu happily threw herself on the man and hugged the man, and then dragged him purposely to walk past Zhong Ting arrogantly.If you want to steal my brother from me, go and make your Qingqiu dream!

Zhong Ting watched Shen Lie and Tang Yu leaving hand in hand, his jade-like eyes darkened slightly, and then brightened up flickeringly again.Having grown up so big, he has never been unable to get what he really wants. Tangyu's childlike provocation will only ignite his fighting spirit even more.

The sky is high and the clouds are light, the setting sun is slanting, and the amusement park full of tourists is slowly closing in dusk.

Tang Yu had a great time playing this half day. The dazzling carousel, the thrilling space roller coaster, and the wonderful float parade were all new to him, especially with Shen Lie in his company, he felt even more joyful.Even the 27-year-old Shen Lie enjoyed it. He forgot his business troubles and emotional entanglements for a few hours. It was a rare and relaxing afternoon. This Disneyland is really a place that makes people forget their age. place.

When night fell, Sleeping Beauty Castle started the "Star Dream" fireworks show. The colorful fireworks changed into strange shapes and shone brightly in the black velvet-like sky. This spectacular scene accompanied the tourists. The exclamation and cheers were really lively.

"Do you like it?" Shen Lie and Tang Yu sat side by side on the stone steps of the flower garden, holding their heads up like a pair of children to covet the dazzling splendor, and the colorful lights fell in their eyes like a sky full of stars, Shining each other's gentle smiles.

"I like watching fireworks the most. They are beautiful and lively!" Tang Yu smiled with starry eyes. "During the Chinese New Year last year, Prince Liang's Mansion also had a fireworks display, but it was still inferior to the ones here."

"What mansion?" The sound of gun salutes and the laughter of tourists was too loud for Shen Lie to hear clearly for a while.

It was only then that Tangyu realized that she had slipped her tongue, and her heart skipped a beat in fright, Ji Zhongshengzhi hurriedly smiled and asked a question back.

"Does brother also like to watch fireworks?"

"I?"

At this time, another bunch of purple fireworks flew into the air with its long tail. After a bang, several huge flowers bloomed in the night sky, and the next second, the petals turned into stars again. Dots of tens of thousands of meteors float and fall in the sky, sprinkling the sky with beauty.

Shen Lie stared at the sky, letting the fleeting gorgeous light flash in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "It's a pity that although the fireworks are beautiful, they don't last long."

This sounded inauspicious. Tang Yu, who was in a happy mood, was startled for a moment, and was about to say something when Shen Lie turned around and smiled at him: "Tang Yu, your birthday is still two months away. What birthday present do you want?"

Shen Lie kept mentioning his birthday, which made Tangyu very flustered, she didn't want to celebrate this birthday at all, okay?The shadow of that night has not dissipated even to this day.

"I don't want any birthday presents..." Tangyu's eyes met each other, and Tangyu's eyes were like a pool of clear springs, shimmering faintly under the light of the moonlight and fireworks.

He only heard him say softly: "As long as I can be with my brother, it would be great."

The sky full of fireworks is still in full bloom, Shen Lie stretched out his hand and gently held his fingers while the flowers were blooming and fading, just like the creepers and roses on the wall of Sleeping Beauty's castle behind him are tied together, tightly tightly entwined.

Holding tightly to the beauty of this moment, he sincerely hoped that everything in front of him would not be as illusory and fleeting as the fireworks.

30. Danger!birthday approaching

The day that makes Tang Yu full of fear is approaching day by day.

In the first few days of December, a wave of cold air hit, and the temperature dropped by nearly ten degrees, and the whole street was changed into thick winter clothes.After getting off the plane, Shen Lie couldn't help frowning when he saw that Tangyu who came to pick him up was only wearing a thick fleece sweater.These days, he has been so busy with the affairs of the two Black Swan branches in other places that he traveled around several cities for several days, but he couldn't spare much energy to take care of Tangyu.Seeing the little guy wearing so little now, he couldn't help but feel distressed, so he asked:

"Why don't you go to the mall and buy yourself a down jacket when it's so cold?"

Tangyu sniffed and said with a smile, "I only have a few pocket money around me, and the clothes in the mall are so expensive!"

"Idiot! You don't want to spend the money, you have to wait for me to come back and buy it for you, don't you!" Shen Lie cursed with a smile, took his cold little hand, and drove him straight to the International Building near the apartment.

While trying on clothes, Tang Yu saw that Shen Lie kept calling and her face was very solemn, so she knew that the projects of the two branches in other places must not be going well.Wearing a newly bought black motorcycle-style sheepskin down jacket, and carrying two other styles of thick feather jackets in her hand, on the way home, Tang Yu couldn't help but ask, "Brother, is the fund for the new store not enough?"

"We are talking about a loan, and you are very concerned about it." Shen Lie glanced at him with a complicated expression.If it wasn't for the failure of the established cooperation with S.W, he wouldn't be in the current trouble.Although the other two overseas companies that are currently negotiating are also very interested in acquisitions, but as Christmas approaches, the details of the negotiations can only be delayed until after the festival, which will not quench the near thirst.

What is even more difficult is that the selected shops in the other two cities have already signed contracts, and they are both high-end shopping malls.
