Getting rich in chronology

Guessing that Shen Qiao would be back in two or three days, Chen Yu secretly erased the marks on the calendar.

It's like being a thief with a guilty conscience. Because my mentality has changed and I am no longer aboveboard, I can't help but do some deceitful things.

After making sure that the marks left by the pencil had been wiped clean, Chen Yu cleaned up even the eraser foam, and then hung the calendar back as it was.

After hanging it back, my heart is still restless, I can't help but think about some irrelevant things, my mind is messy, and I am very annoyed.

It happened that Chen Meili came to him, and he didn't want to stay at home, so he invited his tablemate to drink tea and chat.

Tea... milk tea, of course.

Chen Yu ordered a cup of kumquat and lemon, sour it a bit, to refresh himself.

There were also two small cakes on the table for the two of them, which were the handiwork of the baker who was training, and they happened to be given to the little boss and his friends to try.

Chen Meili twirled the exquisite little fork that came with her in her hand: "It feels so formal."

Chen Yu bit a piece of lemon, his teeth were so sour, he raised his hand to signal her to taste it first.

"Wow, this cake is delicious!" She poked a small piece of cake, and when the fork was inserted, it felt very soft, which was different from the egg cake she had eaten before.

As a result, I found out that the taste is super good, soft and soft. It is obviously a dry cake, but it still has a tender taste, which is very amazing.

"What's this called?"

"Chiffon cake, it was invented by a foreigner." Chen Yu finally finished chewing the lemon slices, his eyes blurred with sourness.

"Take one with you when you like to go."

"Okay, I'll take it back and give it to my dad to taste." It wasn't sold in the store, so Chen Meili was not overly polite.

Looking at Chen Yu's appearance, she couldn't help laughing: "Why do you torture yourself if you can't eat sour."

Chen Yu tapped his forehead: "Wake up."

Chen Meili: "...Your method is quite special."

Chen Yu smiled wryly: "That's not true."

"Is there something on your mind?" The thoughtful girl finally found that her little partner seemed to be in a bad mood.

Chen Yu hesitated for a moment, he was really a little confused now, his mind was in a mess, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know how to face Shen Qiao.

If he was lucky enough to meet someone he likes before he crossed over, then he should give it a try no matter what, pursue him, and then muster up the courage to confess.

Regardless of the outcome, at least try it and you won't regret it.

But in this situation, he didn't dare.

It was not that he was afraid that Shen Qiao would report him, he believed that with Shen Qiao's character, even if he did not accept him, he would not report him.

He was afraid that if Shen Qiao didn't like men, he would frighten Shen Qiao if he confessed rashly.

If Shen Qiao is alienated from him because of this, then he will be very sad.

In the past, Chen Yu saw a question on the Internet: Can we still be friends after breaking up.

He did not hesitate to give a thumbs up to the answer of "can't". Although he didn't talk about it, he thought that there must have been a bad experience or twists and turns when the people who were so close finally chose to separate.

If that's the case, how can we be friends, it will be uncomfortable to see them.

But it's his turn, and it hasn't started yet, he has already humbly thought, if his thoughts are accidentally leaked, I hope Shen Qiao will not hate him, and the two can continue to be friends, otherwise he will be really sad .

"I..." After only one word, he felt his throat dry. He took a big sip of lemonade and summoned up his courage: "Do you still remember what I said once, that I have someone I like?"

At that time, Chen Meili had actually misunderstood her, but he later admitted it along the way, pretending that he really had a sweetheart, so as not to reveal his sexuality.

Unexpectedly, there will be a day of personal confession.

"Remember, remember." Chen Meili suddenly became interested, and she didn't even eat the cake.

"I, I don't know what to do now..." Chen Yu was very worried.

"Why don't you know what to do?" Chen Meili was very anxious, it was the first time she saw Chen Yu in such a difficult situation, and she was also very anxious for her little friend.

"I just don't know what to do." Chen Yu couldn't speak too clearly, and his vague words made people even more puzzled.

Chen Meili rubbed her forehead and tried to help him analyze: "You like him, right?"

Chen Yu nodded.

"Then does she like you?"

Chen Yu shook his head: "I don't know."

Chen Meili thought for a while and said, "Let me put it another way, do you have a good relationship with her?"

This time Shen Yu can answer with certainty: "The relationship is very good, but... But he may regard me as a brother, the kind of relatives and friends..."

"Ah..." Chen Meili did not expect this, and it was too tragic.

In fact, Chen Meili didn't have much experience, Chen Yu had seen a lot before crossing, so Chen Meili just relied on her own kindness to help her friends analyze and come up with ideas.

The little friend is so difficult, Chen Meili is also worried: "So she doesn't know you like her, right?"

Chen Yu nodded: "I dare not tell her."

"Why?" Chen Meili urged him: "Otherwise, you can try chasing her, just say you like her, tell her not to treat you as a friend, and then chase her."

The reason why she came up with this idea was because Chen Meili felt that Chen Yu was so nice that girls would treat him as a friend, probably because she misunderstood that he didn't like her.

"No!" Chen Yu shook his head violently: "No."

"Why?" Chen Meili slapped the table aggressively, "You haven't tried it yet, so how do you know it won't work?"

Chen Yu: "..."

He shrank his neck and said weakly: "You were not like this before..."

I didn't dare to speak loudly before, but now I dare to slap the table.

Chen Meili blushed: "You told me, be more confident, look, I've changed, why did you shrink back?"

Chen Yu: "...I'm just afraid that if I confess to him, he will hate me, and he won't even be a friend in the future."

"Impossible!" Chen Meili turned around, and sure enough, she saw several tables peeping at her and Shen Yu.

She wasn't used to it before, but later became friends with Chen Yu, no matter in school or out to play, people would often peep at them, now she doesn't even hide, she is quite calm.

"Look for yourself, those girls are looking at you, no matter who you like, she..."

Chen Meili really wants to say, no matter who you like, she can't refuse you. You are so nice, why would you refuse you.

But she also knew that although she thought Chen Yu was very nice, if he just didn't like him, there was nothing he could do.

"Even if you don't agree, I won't hate you." Chen Meili said seriously, it should be a very happy thing to be liked by such an outstanding boy as Chen Yu.

Chen Yu struggled and said, "It's because of some other reasons."

For example, Shen Qiao rejects homosexuality.

Chen Meili couldn't do anything about it, Chen Yu obviously had some scruples and it was hard to say, she didn't know the specific situation, let alone ask.

In the end, I can only give my own opinion: "I think, if you like her, you should try chasing her. You said that he might hate you, but this is just your guess, what if it happens."

It was the first time she saw Chen Yu being so distressed, it could be seen that he really liked that girl, I hope he can get what he wants.

Chen Yu's heart started beating, what if it happens?

Then, then he has a target!The target is Shen Qiao, who is good-looking and gentle, super capable, and he couldn't be better!

Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.

Chen Yu blushed unknowingly, her voice trembling: "Then I'll give it a try?"

If he just gave up like this, he would really not be reconciled.

Perhaps discussing with Chen Meili, in fact, I also want to fight in my heart.

He has been entangled and afraid all the time, but the problem is there, it can't be ignored or it can disappear.

Do you want to be secretly in love for the rest of your life, and then watch Shen Qiao meet someone you like, fall in love, start a family, and then smile on the surface and cry in your heart, and send him blessings?

Thinking about it this way made my heart ache.

"Try! I support you!" Chen Meili rarely took the initiative: "If you feel uncomfortable, I will help you."

She must give that girl a good compliment to Chen Yu

Chen Yu is very grateful to his friend for his kindness, but he still has to say: "You must never help anyone to confess in the future."

"why?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Just listen to me."

With a face like the one at the same table, if he really likes a girl, if she goes to help him confess and even compliments him well, there are nine out of ten that he will be misunderstood.

"Well, anyway, except for you, I won't do this kind of thing for anyone else." Chen Meili agreed decisively.

After making a decision, Chen Yu suddenly felt relieved.

But there is no need to be too anxious, he can first reveal his sexuality to Shen Qiao, and if he doesn't reject it, then confess.

Seeing that Chen Yu's expression relaxed, Chen Meili also heaved a sigh of relief, and finally put her mind back on the delicious little cake.

The two pieces of cake brought up were very small, she finished them in two or three bites, Chen Yu pushed his own piece over: "Eat it."

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"I tried to eat too much these days, and I don't want to eat."

"It's so good." Chen Meili dug a large piece of cake and was completely conquered by the tender and soft taste: "My grandma must also like to eat this."

When the elderly are old, they like to eat this kind of soft and toothless food.

"Then bring a little more, I've made a lot, and I'll share what I can't finish with everyone."

Two new bakers are recruited, one is a foreign recruit, a boy in his early twenties named Zhu Fulai, shy and not talkative, someone from the elders in the family can cook, he has learned white dishes, and he has a little bit of cake making foundation.

There is also a girl named Zhao Juan, chosen from among the clerks of the milk tea shop, with a steady hand and a clever mind.

Chen Yu takes some time every day to teach them, and saves some ingredients for them to practice.

Some of the less successful works at the beginning were distributed to the shop assistants - the best white flour, with so much sugar, eggs, milk, etc., are all good things, even if they are burnt and not good-looking, they are still good things. Everyone is rushing to ask for it.

After repeated failures, the mentality of the two newcomers almost collapsed.

Let them spoil so many ingredients, what a crime!

As Chen Yu is the boss, he still has to do psychological counseling, but it is true that both of them respect him very much.

At the moment, there is also a focus on the inheritance of craftsmanship, the status of master and apprentice.

Although Chen Yu didn't formally accept apprentices, these two learned how to make pastry from him, and they regarded him as a master in their hearts and respected him very much, even though he was younger than them.

After a period of practice, it is getting better and better now.

Although there are still relatively few types of clubs, they have all been practiced to the extent that they can be sold, such as today's chiffon cake.

Chen Meili ate two small cakes and drank the milk tea, feeling satisfied.

"Do you want more?" Chen Yu asked.

"No, no, I have to go dancing in a while." The last two words were said very quietly, looking embarrassed.

After she lost weight, she skipped rope downstairs, and there were always people watching.

In the past, when she was fat, those people only took one or two glances at first. Her father danced with her, and no one would say bad things in front of her father.

It's okay to watch it, she dances every day, and no one takes it seriously.

As a result, when she lost weight, more people came to see her, and some boys surrounded her, which annoyed her.

Especially in summer, when the clothes are thin and so many people are watching her dance, she really can't do it anymore.

Later, I asked Chen Yu, changed some indoor sports, and heard him say that dancing can also shape the body, and I fell in love with it at that time.

She also liked to dance when she was a child, either in a serious way, or in the red hood at home, wandering around on the bed, flapping her arms and legs, pretending that she could dance, and she danced very beautifully.

Later, when I grew up, I stopped doing such naive things, thinking that it was just a ridiculous experience when I was a child.

But by accident, she discovered that she still has such a deep-seated hobby in her heart.

She said that she wanted to learn dance, so her father contacted her with a teacher who learned folk dance.

It's too late to learn to dance now, and my body is fixed. The teacher said that it is impossible to practice anything famous.

However, Chen Meili doesn't have too high requirements, she just likes to exercise by the way to burn off excess calories and keep herself from gaining weight.

The requirements are low, and she likes it herself, so she practiced quite happily.

Except for her family members, no one knew about this, so she only told Chen Yu.

"Shall I take you to the teacher?"

"No need, it's not far away, I'll go by myself... What are you doing, do you know someone?" Chen Meili asked curiously when she saw Chen Yu suddenly turned her head.

Chen Yu had already turned her head back, turned her back to the bar, and said calmly: "Don't look, it's Xiao Jiahui's sister."

Chen Meili froze for a moment before realizing who he was talking about, that Xiao Jiaxin?I've only heard of it, never seen it.

She glanced at it just now, and there were five or six girls who came in together, all crowded together, and she didn't know which one was.

But soon she knew.

A group of girls gathered together, chattering like little sparrows, with a very bright voice.

"Wow, this store is really beautiful. When my cousin told me, I still couldn't believe it."

"I have been here with my sister a long time ago. This store is not only beautiful, but the milk tea is also super delicious. I have a grape cup at home. My sister has several. She is saving watermelon cups and wants to exchange them for a cup of free milk tea. "

"My sister has several, too. It's great to work. She has a salary and can buy what she wants."

"That's right, I really want to work early."

"Xiao Jiaxin, do you really want to treat us to milk tea?"

"Yes, yes, do you really ask?"

The girl in the middle had her curly hair permed. She was still young and had a childish face. This hairstyle made her look a little uncoordinated.

"Of course, I said please, can you still tell lies?" She took out ten yuan from her pocket and slapped it on the bar: "Choose whatever you want."

There were two girls who were more polite. They didn't order the cheapest one, but they didn't order the most expensive one either. They only ordered one yuan and five iced milk teas.

The other three were different. Not only did they order a large cup, but they also specially selected expensive ones, adding all the extra ingredients that could be added.

The corner of Xiao Jiaxin's mouth twitched, feeling unhappy, but she let out all the words, and it would be embarrassing not to buy that one.

So he could only smash his teeth and swallow blood, with a smile on his face, pretending not to care at all.

"I want a cup too, the pearl one."

"Jiaxin, why don't you try adding something else, the coconut is also delicious, and the red beans are also good."

"No, I've had enough of those. I think the one with pearls is the best." Xiao Jiaxin fooled people with an expression of "I often drink it and I know it well".

The ten dollars, in the end only got back a few cents.

After getting the milk tea, some couldn't wait to drink it, and some couldn't bear to drink it just like that, carrying the paper bag with the logo of the milk tea shop, their cheeks flushed with excitement.

"Jiaxin, don't you drink?"

Xiao Jiaxin just peeked at how his companion poked open the milk tea, and he seemed not to care when he heard the words: "No, I don't want to drink it now, I'll talk about it when I go back."

"Do you want to sit here and drink?"

"There are no seats, and look at them, they are all ordering that kind of cups."

"That cup is also beautiful. My sister said that there are particularly beautiful sentences on it, and their classmates even came to extract it."

"Really? Can you lend me a copy too."

"I'll go back and ask my sister."

"..."

The girls chatted and left with a smile, and Chen Yu touched his chin in doubt.

In other words, Xiao Jiaxin seems to be taking the high school entrance examination this year. I don't know how he did in the examination and whether he has passed the high school entrance examination.

In the original book, of course she passed the exam, but she didn’t get into the university. Yun Baiya, as her brother’s girlfriend, came forward to encourage her to support her, and then she repeated the study for another year and was admitted to the university, so she was very grateful Yun Baiya, this sister-in-law.

As for whether Xiao Jiaxin has been admitted to high school now, Chen Yu doesn't know, he hasn't heard from Xiao's family for a long time.

当初邵凌云那一顿揍，让肖家辉安分了不少，现在就只是跟女朋友谈谈情说说爱，不妨碍其他人，别人也懒得传他家八卦。

When Shen Yu Malatang opened a branch, Liang Fengxia came to him in private and spoke nice words to him, saying that she was in a difficult position as a mother and wanted to coax him.

Then Chen Yu directly took out the support agreement, saying that if you come again, I will make countless copies of this thing and go to your factory to distribute leaflets.

Liang Fengxia yelled at him as a heartless white-eyed wolf, but in the end she was still worried that Chen Yu would really do this, which would make her unable to stay in the factory, and left in despair.

After all, no matter how much trouble she makes, Chen Yu may not necessarily do her any good, but if she loses her job, she will have nothing to lose and nowhere to cry.

"Xiao Jiahui's sister is quite generous." Chen Meili said.

Although her father gave her quite a lot of pocket money, she was reluctant to invite so many classmates to drink milk tea, at most she could invite Chen Yu alone.

Chen Yu: "...it's quite generous."

In the past, I couldn't wear the pull-back shoes that cost more than ten yuan. I bought second-hand shoes from my classmates and painted them white with chalk.

Now it’s a big change to buy ten yuan casually and invite friends to drink milk tea.

"I won't chat with you anymore. I'm going to the teacher's place. The time is almost up." Chen Meili tidied up and stood up, and Chen Yu asked someone to bring the packed cake.

Chen Meili held the paper bag in one hand, and clenched her fist in the other to cheer for Chen Yu: "Be confident, don't shrink back, what if it happens!"

"I know, I know, let's go, pay attention to safety on the road, don't go to other places with people you don't know, and don't lead others."

"I see, why are you leaving like my father?"

Sending off his friends, Chen Yu is going to go outside to see the decoration of several shops.

Just about to go out, the phone on the bar rang, the clerk picked it up and listened to a few words, then hurriedly called Chen Yu: "Boss, your home number."

"My house?" Chen Yu walked over there while talking.

"Yes, it's the big boss." Because Chen Yu said that Shen Qiao was his brother, the shop assistants didn't know what to shout, so they called him the big boss.

Chen Yu was startled, and when he answered the phone, it was Shen Qiao's voice, and he was surprised and delighted: "You came back early?"

"Well, I'll be back when I'm done." In fact, he compressed and compressed the entire itinerary, and then successfully shortened the travel time.

"Are you at home? I'll be back now!" Chen Yu had already forgotten his entanglements, and now he wanted to see Shen Qiao as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, I just want to ask, can I use the household registration book?"

"The household registration book? Of course, do you know where it is? You can get it yourself." Neither the household registration book nor the passbook are locked. If a thief really wants to enter the house, even if they lock it in a box, they can take it away with the box. .

These important things were all placed in his original small bookcase, sandwiched between the books.

If you want to be a thief, you don't want to steal a box of books that are heavy and not worth the price.

"I know, then I'll go get it."

"What's the use of your household registration book?" Chen Yu couldn't help asking.

There was a moment of silence on the phone, and soon Shen Qiao's voice came over: "There is a procedure to go through, we will talk about it when we meet."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you when I go home? Is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you. The beef bought by Shen Ji's back kitchen today is very fresh, and the tomatoes are very ripe. I'll take some back and make it for you Is stewed beef brisket with tomatoes good? It’s sour, appetizing and delicious, you probably can’t eat it well outside, so come back and make up for it..."

The clerk secretly cast a surprised look, their little boss is really virtuous.

And it's too kind to the big boss, who is usually not a talkative person, but he is so soft when talking with the big boss on the phone.

There was another long silence on the phone, and when Shen Qiao spoke again, his voice seemed a little hoarse: "Okay, I like everything you do."

Chen Yu immediately smiled, as the old saying goes, to grab a man's heart, you have to grab his stomach first, it's not correct, but at the very least, Shen Qiao likes his food, it should be considered an advantage for him item.

"Then you go to work, and I'll do it when you come back."

The two chatted for a few more words, hung up the phone, Chen Yu didn't look at the progress of the project, and happily went to Shen Ji's back kitchen to steal vegetables and raise wild men.

On the other end of the phone, the busy tone on the receiver rang for a while before Shen Qiao put down the receiver stiffly.

Thinking of the jubilant boy's voice he heard just now, he felt warm and a little panicked.

I don't know if this step is right or not, but at the very least, I have to break back the wrong path first.

Listening to those two chatting that day, he suddenly remembered that he and Shen Yu were still on the same household registration book.

At first, he didn't take it seriously. He did it for the convenience of registering for him, and he thought it was good for cultivating relationship.

Regret it now.

So before confessing his love, he had to change his account first.
