"So...you come to me and tell me so much, just to show your love to me?"
Li Xingyi looked at the young man in front of him speechlessly, and his hand holding the iron spoon trembled a little: "Do you know how busy I am here? I thought you came here because something big happened to the company, and I thought Gu Rong did something to apologize to you As a result, you told me now, did you confirm your mind with Gu Rong again?"
Fang Yan nodded happily.
Li Xingyi felt that the veins on his forehead were popping out. If he hadn't always cultivated well, and the person in front of him was much younger than him, he wished he could just throw his fist and hit the face of the present.
What are you doing here to show off in front of him who is single? ! Run to Fang Ke to show off if you have the ability!
Let's see if Fang Ke cleans up Big Brother Gu!
He took a deep breath, finally turned around and lifted the lid of the pot, scooped out a spoonful of broth from the inside and poured it into another pot, the food inside immediately exuded a charming aroma.
"Then why did you come here to talk to me about this?" Li Xingyi asked, "Could it be that you simply came here to show your love to me?"
"Of course not." Fang Yan hurriedly explained: "Brother Li, I just want to ask you, you... do you remember your former lover?"
Li Xing was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly sank into memories.
It has been too many years since this incident, for him, it is already a vague memory in retrospect. Li Xingyi was stunned for a short while, then quickly came back to his senses and said, "Why are you asking this?"
"I just want to ask." Fang Yan swallowed his saliva, and asked nervously: "Brother Li, I'm assuming, just assuming, if your lover comes back to you now and tells me that he regretted it at the beginning, you What will happen?"
"What do you mean?"
"Will you accept him?"
"Huh?" Li Xingyi raised his eyebrows and looked at him with his chin raised: "Fang Yan, is it because my cooking is not delicious, or because your business is not doing well, and you came here to ask me such a boring question?"
"Brother Li! I'm serious!" Fang Yan said solemnly: "I'm seriously asking you about the possibility of this matter. If, I really mean if, if one day, that person really finds Come here, will you accept him?"
Li Xing was silent for a moment.
Under Fang Yan's nervous gaze, he put down the lid of the pot in his hand again, and the sound of the collision between the lid and the cauldron startled Fang Yan immediately.
"Fang Yan, I don't want to joke with you."
"Brother Li, I'm not joking with you, I'm telling you very seriously."
Li Xing opened his eyes wide, and after carefully identifying the expression on his face, he turned around after making sure that he was not joking.
"Brother Li?"
Li Xingyi's tone was light: "The me now is not the one I used to be."
"Brother Li?!"
"At the beginning when he was about to leave, he left so decisively that I couldn't believe it. I even ran to his house, but was kicked out by his family members. When I got the news later, he had already left the country. "Li Xingyi said: "He has been abroad for so many years, maybe he has already married and had children outside, found a foreign girl, maybe even gave birth to a mixed blood, what's wrong with that? Fang Yan, people's hearts It’s not made of iron, after being beaten to pieces, it’s already dead.”
"Brother Li..." Fang Yan's eyes showed worry, and he immediately regretted it, wondering why he had asked such a question just now.
"It's been so many years, so what is it if he regrets it now? If he regretted it, he would have come back long ago, and he won't wait until now." Li Xing said: "But even if he comes back, tell me he regrets it. Now, do I have to accept him?"
"Brother Li?!" Fang Yan was pleasantly surprised again.
As soon as Li Xing turned around, with a calm expression, he said with disdain: "Now my restaurant is running well, the business is so hot, and there are so many customers waiting for me outside, the customers can't even get in line. , what kind of onion is he?"
Fang Yan's heart finally fell to the ground.
Hearing what Li Xingyi said, he felt relieved.
"Brother Li, you have to remember what you said today. You said you won't see each other in the future. There will be such a day, so don't be soft-hearted and forgive me."
Li Xingyi gave him a strange look: "What on earth are you here for?"
Fang Yan shook his head, but he didn't say anything about Song Changdong.
He looked at the pot in front of Li Xingyi, changed the subject and said, "Brother Li, are you making new dishes again?"
"Yes." Li Xing said, "Do you have something to do today? If you have nothing to do, just wait for a while. I'll make it for you to try."
"good."
It's not time for meal yet. The restaurant's business hours start at ten o'clock, and now it's only nine o'clock, but everyone in the store has already arrived, and the kitchen is also in full swing preparing the things needed for the day. Li Xingyi occupies it all by himself. I found a place to experiment with my new dishes.
There were clanging sounds in the background, and in the lobby outside, the service personnel were checking everything in an orderly manner. Fang Yan didn't want to disturb anyone, so he didn't go anywhere, just stood beside Li Xingyi and waited.
When the clock slowly turned to half past nine, Li Xingyi's new dish was finally ready.
"I heard that you went to the countryside before?" Li Xingyi finally found a chance to talk to him.
Fang Yan was tasting his new dishes, his mind was occupied by delicious food, and he was half a beat behind in responding to him.
"Yes... yes." Fang Yan swallowed the food in his mouth, and suddenly thought of Song Changdong over there. He didn't dare to say more, for fear that he would accidentally tell about Song Changdong. Before Li Xing could ask any more questions, Fang Yan quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Brother Li, do you know that my mother Hua and Uncle Ji are getting married?"
Li Xing nodded: "I know."
"Even you know..." Fang Yan said awkwardly.
"They even came to me and said they wanted me to prepare the wedding banquet." Li Xingyi: "That's your adoptive mother. For your sake, I agreed."
"Brother Li, are you here to prepare the dishes for the wedding banquet?" Fang Yan's eyes lit up: "That's great, your cooking skills are the best, and if you have any requirements, you can just tell me. You don't have to bother the two of them."
"Of course I won't be polite to you." Li Xing said, "What do you think of the new dishes?"
Fang Yan gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious, just push it out like this."
"OK."
