dream lover

The coincidence downstairs that night was so bizarre, Lu Xiaofeng returned home in a daze, and felt unreal when he took a shower and went to sleep.

It can't be a dream of oneself.

Early the next morning, Lu Xiaofeng made a phone call according to the new business card Cheng Yan gave yesterday.Cheng Yan not only answered the phone in seconds, but also took the initiative to invite Lu Xiaofeng to have dinner together.

The appointment restaurant is where they meet for the first time after work.Through the glass window, Lu Xiaofeng looked at the person who had already been waiting in the restaurant.Only then can the brain confirm that it is really not a dream.

Cheng Yan is really back.Lu Xiaofeng was very happy.

Cheng Yan, who was sitting upright, was as eye-catching as any male star on TV.Fortunately, when Lu Xiaofeng came, he also cleaned himself up hard.

"You are here, please sit down."

Cheng Yan said hello, and carefully looked at Lu Xiaofeng's face for ten seconds, as if appreciating it.

"This, that..." Lu Xiaofeng cleared his throat after sitting down, but couldn't hold back a complete sentence.

"Look at what you want to eat first, and talk slowly while eating." Cheng Yan handed him the menu, and his soft and gentle tone made Lu Xiaofeng feel the kindness he hadn't seen for a long time.There is such a wonderful relationship between him and Cheng Yan.Sometimes Cheng Yan is the most trustworthy person Lu Xiaofeng can rely on besides his parents, sometimes Lu Xiaofeng doesn't understand what Cheng Yan is thinking, and subconsciously wants to escape, but there is nowhere to escape.

The two ordered the menu and talked about what happened in the past seven or eight months.Lu Xiaofeng's life didn't change much, but Cheng Yan was quite different, the luxury car he drove last night, and his current aura reflected this everywhere.Lu Xiaofeng told Cheng Yan the news he saw, praised his great success in starting a business, and said sincerely: "Cheng Yan, you are really amazing."

Hundreds of people have said the same thing to Cheng Yan, but Lu Xiaofeng said it, which made his heart beat wildly the moment he heard it.

In particular, Cheng Yan fantasized about the effect of applying this sentence to other scenes - this sentence was tampered with by Cheng Yan's memory into "You are really good in bed", perfectly embedded in those words about Lu Xiaofeng. in the spring dream.

Seeing Cheng Yan looking at him fixedly, Lu Xiaofeng understood that he didn't like this kind of compliments very much, and quickly explained: "I don't want to flatter you, I just want to be happy for you."

Only then did Cheng Yan pull away from "You're really amazing", pulled back the thoughts flying all over the sky, smiled gently at Lu Xiaofeng, and responded: "Yes."

"By the way..." Lu Xiaofeng just wanted to ask Cheng Yan if he came back this time for work or to visit his family, how long would he stay?Cheng Yan's cell phone rang, and his secretary on the other end of the phone was talking about work in a hurry.

Cheng Yan gave a solution in a few simple sentences, and the whole call lasted about 30 seconds.When he answered the phone, he kept looking into Lu Xiaofeng's eyes worriedly, and after hastily hung up, he said cautiously, "Sorry, I forgot to turn off the phone."

It turned out that he was afraid that he would be rude in front of Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng quickly said: "It's nothing, it's true that I didn't waste your time."

Asked about Cheng Yan's plan for coming back this time, he replied: "It's for the business here."

"What business?" Seeing Cheng Yan's stern expression, Lu Xiaofeng pricked up his ears and lowered his voice, "Do you need to keep it secret?"

"It's a big deal." Having said that, Cheng Yan tilted his head childishly and looked at him with a smile.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Anyway, you can do anything!"

Looking at the front door on the old street, which was almost invisible covered by the messy signboards around, Cheng Yan hummed, it was even more dilapidated than he remembered, this is what he said about the big business—Lao Qin’s small restaurant .

The app developed by Cheng Yan and the others was quickly acquired by domestic Internet giants after it became a hit, and the benefits it brought were enough for ordinary people without ambition to last for a lifetime.In addition, with the backing, follow-up operations have become much easier.The other partners who were with him all started to live a retirement life at a young age.And they couldn't understand why Cheng Yan, as a technical person, would suddenly be interested in opening a small restaurant.

Who knew, Cheng Yan came here specially to meet Lu Xiaofeng.

He deliberately bought Room 701 of the rented building as his new home because there were traces of Lu Xiaofeng there.

The original intention of Cheng Yan to go to another place was to leave Lu Xiaofeng, so unlike Lu Xiaofeng, Lao Qin had always been in contact with Cheng Yan.Lao Qin has always followed the previous promise and sent Cheng Yan the restaurant's dividends on a quarterly basis. He said that this is called a brother and he must settle accounts clearly.

Cheng Yan's coming back to run the small restaurant was also something that he had discussed with Lao Qin in advance. At that time, Lao Qin was drinking water, and when he heard it, he sprayed it.

"Teacher Cheng put aside his career and came to my little ruined temple, what are you going to do?"

Teacher Cheng on the other end of the phone took a sip of coffee and said unhurriedly, "It doesn't matter if you don't agree, I can call my sister-in-law and let her persuade you."

"That's my wife."

That's what Lao Qin said, and his heart was pounding.At the beginning, Cheng Yan spent all his family money to support the couple without saying a word.Xiao Rong has always said that one should be grateful, but which side does Bao Qi stand on?

Afterwards, Cheng Yan started to renovate the small restaurant.As soon as it was sold, it sold the left and right sides, including the facade of the entire small street, and used high rents to transfer the current tenants to their own hands.In order to expand the scale, it is planned to make it a whole hotel arranged in partitions.

I don't know how Cheng Yan persuaded those stores, how much each of them compensated.Anyway, he quickly completed the first step.

In Lao Qin's eyes, this was nonsense, but Cheng Yan had no choice but to agree to the coercion.In the contract, Cheng Yan guaranteed him a certain amount every year, no matter whether the restaurant was a success or a failure, as long as he followed the big boss to pick up money.

Cheng Yan transferred his most capable assistant, Secretary Yu, from the original company to work exclusively for him.The assistant hired a group of people on the Internet to arrange store decoration, buy catering equipment, and manage various business departments.The seemingly unreliable restaurant gradually took shape in the intensive planning.

In order to open as soon as possible, most of the new decorations are soft furnishings. It will not take long to add chandeliers, plaster walls, and cabinets.In the brand-new storefront, Cheng Yan called everyone together for a meeting, and asked them to talk about their thoughts on the future direction of the restaurant.Many celebrities who opened themed restaurants failed to manage well and closed down, so there is no need to propose themed restaurants.

Secretary Yu said: "Isn't this our old business? It's the same as promoting an app. It's hype. Teacher Cheng wears a chef's uniform and pulls noodles in the shop to ensure that there will be more customers."

Cheng Yan said, "Accountant Zhang, settle her salary."

"Teacher Cheng, I was wrong..."

Speaking of the nickname teacher, it originated from a speech Cheng Yan was invited to give to the computer department students of his alma mater.Because of his excellent professional knowledge and convincing people with his strength, the students at school call him "Brother Cheng" and "Teacher Cheng".Secretary Yu imitated the student's first start, and gradually the whole company changed their name to Mr. Cheng as Mr. Cheng.Including the advertisers outside, as well as Lao Qin, because they also shouted after hearing it on the phone.

The final plan was to turn the restaurant into a cheap gourmet city, absorbing all the good snacks in the surrounding area, which was similar to Cheng Yan's original idea.
