When he was about to walk to the inn, Lu Chenfeng saw from a distance two couples taking pictures at the gate of the courtyard, with luggage beside them, the guests who had just checked out.
The girls posing for the photo captured Lin Chaosheng with keen eyes and shouted "Boss Lin" in unison. Lin Chaosheng held the handle with one hand and waved his arm at them.
"Xiaojian said that you went out to buy something, and thought I couldn't wait for you." One of the girls said excitedly, with a camera around her neck, "We want to take a photo with you."
Lin Chaosheng would not refuse the request of the guest, but said modestly: "No problem, I am honored, but I may not be very photogenic."
The boy on the side was handsome and answered without hesitation: "I won't tell you that my girlfriend chose to live in this inn just because 'the boss is too good-looking'."
Lin Chaosheng gave him an admiring look: "Your girlfriend is indeed very discerning."
Three people were praised in one sentence, and Lu Chenfeng admired it again and again. Lin Chaosheng pushed the bicycle back to the yard. When he came out, the girl had already adjusted the focal length and angle of the camera and handed it to Lu Chenfeng.
Several tourists stood side by side in front of the gate, Lin Chaosheng consciously chose the outermost position, and Lu Chenfeng raised his camera in response. The composition at this time was excellent, and the light was just right. Even though there was more than Lin Chaosheng in the frame, his eyes were firmly fixed on the other person.
After sending off the group of guests, Lin Chaosheng opened the mailbox embedded in the courtyard wall and took out letters and postcards that had not been picked up for a week. Stepping into the front hall of the inn, Jian Yi took the mushrooms and sent them to the kitchen. Lin Chaosheng asked Lu Chenfeng, "Are you hungry now?"
Lu Chenfeng said frankly: "I guess I can eat two bowls of rice."
The two laughed and sat down at the table on the right side of the bookshelf. Lin Chaosheng coded the scattered postcards one by one and put them into the wooden box on the first floor of the bookshelf together with the letters. Lu Chenfeng asked: "These are all sent by your guests?"
"Yes." Lin Chaosheng closed the lid and stuffed the wooden box back again, "I receive a few sheets every month."
Lu Chenfeng: "How many years have you opened an inn?"
Lin Chaosheng: "In two years."
Lu Chenfeng nodded: "I didn't expect you to be so popular."
Lin Chaosheng raised his eyelids and said in a playful tone, "'Unexpected'?"
It was a casual chat, but Lin Chaosheng was "serious". Lu Chenfeng was dumbfounded by the three words he emphasized. He squeezed his eyebrows awkwardly, trying to explain his inadvertence, "I didn't mean that..." , "I meant to say...", "What I actually meant to say was...".
Lin Chaosheng stared at him intently, with obvious tenderness in his eyes.
After struggling for a while, Lu Chenfeng accepted his fate with a wry smile: "Okay, I said the wrong thing."
When Jian Yi approached them with a dinner plate, Lin Chaosheng still couldn't help smiling. This was the first time he saw his boss so happy.
In front of Lin Chaosheng was a small bowl full of vegetables. He ate very little, and he never left his tea. In terms of diet alone, it was completely different from the simplicity of contemporary young people, and it was too healthy.
Lu Chenfeng praised Jian Yi's craftsmanship, and continued the topic just now: "Why do you want to open an inn?"
Lin Chaosheng swallowed a piece of boiled radish and asked, "Why do you want to ask this?"
"You look younger than me." Lu Chenfeng always eats fast, he put down his spoon and took a sip of Pu'er tea, "Few young people are willing to stay away from society so early and choose to go to 'isolated' places. Life."
With more than half of the rice left in the bowl, Lin Chaosheng was full. He wiped his mouth with a tissue and raised his head to meet Lu Chenfeng's gaze.
Lu Chenfeng couldn't tell what was hidden in the other's eyes, and he seemed to want to talk about something. He only felt that Lin Chaosheng's eyes were too sincere and fiery.
Lin Chaosheng smiled gently at him, and answered his question seriously: "I am giving myself early retirement."
After being stunned for a few seconds, Lu Chenfeng shook his head helplessly. He never expected such an answer. Lin Chaosheng was joking again. He really lost to him.
"Mr. Lu." Lin Chaosheng restrained his expression, his expression was soft, and his tone was sincere, "I hope you have a happy day on 'Jiaxi'."
Lu Chenfeng couldn't deny it: "Of course."
Lin Chaosheng picked up the dinner plate on the table and left him the last sentence: "I wish you a safe and smooth journey ahead."
The light in the room was not turned on, the panes were lit by the afternoon sun, the suitcase was standing by his feet, Lu Chenfeng sat quietly beside the bed, flipping the room card between his fingers.
The curtains floated in the wind, and there was a seagull on the balcony guardrail. Lu Chenfeng didn't know what he was hesitating about. After a long time, the light that spilled into the room was getting darker and darker, he reached out and grabbed the handle of the suitcase, got up and walked to the door.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, there were two guests waiting to check out in front of the counter. Several waiters were very busy. Jian Yi was checking whether there were any defects in the room and the use of paid goods. Lu Chenfeng came to the sofa chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Sit down/body, and plan to enjoy the mountains and sea outside the window for a while.
He didn't expect to see Lin Chaosheng.
There were no tourists on the open-air viewing platform at this time, so Lu Chenfeng's line of sight was unobstructed. The sun was warm and red, and Lin Chaosheng sat quietly on the high stool, with his back straight, and wrapped himself tightly in a thick coat.
The wind swept over from the sea and swept his forehead lightly. Those light-filled eyes seemed to contain a pool of clear water, and the corners of his mouth seemed to have a shallow arc. He was too quiet, and he didn't know where he was looking. .
Lu Chenfeng frowned slightly.
Sunset always brings a feeling of sadness, but it is warm after all. Lin Chaosheng seems to be lonely and free.
Lu Chenfeng suddenly wanted to try Lin Chaosheng's specialty dish for no reason. He had never eaten pineapple rice, how did it taste, and would it be sweet
"Mr. Lu?" Jian Yi's voice sounded beside his ear, and Lu Chenfeng returned to his senses and nodded to him.
"Your room has been checked." Jian Yi reached out to him to take back the room card, "Thank you for choosing Jiaxi Inn."
Lu Chenfeng followed Jian Yi back to the counter. After a few short steps, he changed his decision: "I'm sorry, I want to stay for another week."
"A week?!" Jian Yi's glasses almost fell off the bridge of his nose. He hurriedly stabilized his hands and touched his chest. Then he finally realized: No wonder the boss does everything by himself. It turned out to be attracting and developing potential customers. How can you give people a VIP when you come up, your eyes are really sharp, it's the first time in such a long time that there are guests staying for a week in a row, I finally see the God of Wealth alive!
Jian Yi was afraid that Lu Chenfeng would go back and ask, "Are you... sure?"
Lu Chenfeng did what he said: "Well, sure."
Jane Yi swallowed excitedly: "Then I'll switch you to a big bed room. You'll be staying for a long time, so it can be a lot cheaper."
Lu Chenfeng vetoed: "Don't bother, the room I live in is fine."
Sea view room for a week? ! Jian Yi grabbed the calculator and quickly tapped it twice, and showed the amount of money to Lu Chenfeng: "VIP members enjoy a 5% discount, this is your room fee for a week, I'll ask the boss, maybe there's more More deals."
"No need." For some reason, Lu Chenfeng didn't want Lin Chaosheng to be disturbed at the moment. He handed the bank card in the briefcase to Jane Yi, "I'll pay at this price."
The sky turned to dark blue, the lights along the coast came on one by one, the temperature outside was getting cooler, Lin Chao grew and breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and stepped on the high stool, ready to go back to his room to rest.
He turned around and walked towards the door leading to the front hall. On the sofa chair in the store, a familiar figure was facing each other with a distance of a few meters away from him. He forgot to press the hand holding the doorknob until - Lin Chaosheng raised his head slightly. sight.
He looked at Lu Chenfeng standing in front of him, and slowly opened the door. The heating in the room swept in from behind Lu Chenfeng, and Lin Chaosheng asked with a smile, "Why didn't you leave?"
Lu Chenfeng lowered his eyes and replied, "I still have something to do, and I may have to stay for a while longer."
