"Sir, the event in my store has been cancelled."
Hearing this, Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at the long jump exemption diagram still engraved on the ground: "Isn't there another one?"
"Sorry, the event has been cancelled."
"Then why not clear it up?"
"I haven't had time to clean it up yet."
"Oh, what's the point of telling this to me?"
"Sir, you know very well..."
"I don't know."
"Sir, our store has a small profit, you should..." The female manager wanted to say "Just be a human being", but considering that she couldn't say this as a service staff, she changed her words: "... Let's order normally. …”
Seeing the two people talking back and forth for a long time, Principal Pang on the side was dissatisfied and patted the table: "What's wrong with you, a young man? You don't serve customers when they come, and you talk nonsense to your children? Do you know each other?" "
"I don't know!" Chen Yu raised his hand.
Chen Erke also raised his hand: "I don't know him!"
Chen Sanke: "No...I don't know him."
Turning around, the female manager looked at Principal Pang, feeling familiar for a moment: "Sir... are you with them?"
"Yes! Wait a minute..." Principal Pang's fat face twitched: "What is a group? What's the meaning of the word group?"
The female manager looked at Principal Pang's clothes for a few times, then looked back at the four brothers and sisters Chen Yu. After thinking for a moment, she forced a smile, took the menu from the waiter on the side, and passed it to Principal Pang: "Sir, please order. Well, during our store’s special sale period, all dishes are 15% off, and there are no other activities other than that.”
The female manager deliberately emphasized the last sentence.
"Inexplicable..." Reaching out to take the menu, Principal Pang frowned and muttered, and then called everyone to sit down: "I will order a plate of your specialty braised pork. Mr. Chen, you can order it. You are welcome."
"Principal Pang, you'd better order it."
“You click, you click.”
After a lot of politeness, but seeing that he couldn't push it away, Father Chen opened the menu and casually ordered an inexpensive home-cooked dish.
"Mom, classmate Chen Yu, it's your turn."
"Teacher, please order first..."
In a harmonious and friendly exchange of rejections, the menu fell into Chen Yu's hands...
So, he opened the menu without hesitation and quickly announced the names of the dishes in front of everyone's astonished eyes: "Braised pork elbow, pork sausage, stir-fried shrimp, pan-fried bag, dry-fried hairtail, twice-cooked pork, three-layered pork belly" With fat and thin…”
"Stir-fried liver tips, stir-fried liver guan'er, stir-fried belly, fried ground three delicacies..."
"Sweet sea fungus, watered frog, osmanthus wings, soybean sprouts... Oh, yes, there is no pangasius, so that's it."
Everyone: "..."
After being stunned for a long time, Mother Chen came back to her senses, hurriedly grabbed the meal order, glared at Chen Yu, then looked at Principal Pang, and said apologetically: "Pang... Principal Pang, I'm really sorry, kid. I’m not too sensible to let him order it.”
Of course, Principal Pang knew that Chen Yu was expressing his dissatisfaction with his forced "finding of parents". He waved his hand with a smile: "If Chen Yu likes to eat, then order it. Waiter! Just serve what he ordered."
The female manager standing nearby hesitated to speak as she heard the familiar name of the dish, and finally said nothing.
After the female manager and the waiter left, Principal Pang pulled his tie and glanced at Chen Yu.
"Classmate Chen Yu, do you know the manager of this store?"
"I don't know." Chen Yu shook his head decisively.
"Oh." Principal Pang was noncommittal and said with a smile, "Are these dishes enough? If not, student Chen Yu will order more."
"enough."
"Waiter, give the children four more bottles of Kaiwei drinks." Turning around to greet the waiter, Principal Pang looked at Chen's father and mother Chen again: "Do you two want to drink?"
"Don't drink anymore. This has already cost you a lot of money, principal."
"It doesn't matter, it's all for the sake of the children." Principal Pang deliberately emphasized the word "children" and told Chen Yu.
Chen Yu: "..."
"Then let's all stop drinking today. I'll be driving soon, so I won't drink either."
Since Chen Yu killed him so "brutally", as the saying goes, a man who takes advantage of others has a short hand and a mouth that cannibalize others, Principal Pang immediately had an advantage in his heart and went straight to the topic: "Mr. Chen, the food has not been served. Take advantage of this time." Let’s talk business.”
"You say."
Father Chen and Mother Chen immediately sat upright.
"Did my Chen Yu cause trouble for you?"
"No, no." Principal Pang waved his hand, looked at Niu Lanshan and the class teacher, and explained: "This is what happened. After school last night, classmate Chen Yu must have been in a hurry to go home. He ran very fast and was caught. Our school’s physical education teacher, Teacher Niu, discovered it.”
Mother Chen smiled and nodded to Niu Lanshan. She suddenly turned to look at Chen Yu and blurted out: "Did you knock something down in a panic? Principal Pang, I know this. He said at the time that he was being chased by a dog. It may have been accidental, it probably wasn’t intentional.”
"..." Niu Lanshan's originally smiling expression suddenly became distorted.
"It's a mad dog!" Chen Erke added happily.
"..." Niu Lanshan's expression was not only distorted, but even a little broken.
Chen Yu held his forehead, feeling complicated.
"... This... This..." Principal Pang was choked, and he opened his mouth for a long time before he reacted and stammered: "This... we won't talk about these details. Anyway... Anyway, after Teacher Niu found me, After discussing it with me, I think that Chen Yu’s talent is very suitable for development in sports. This is why we suddenly came to visit today.”
"Sports? Talent?" Father Chen asked doubtfully, "Principal Pang, are you making a mistake? My son has never had any sports talent."
"No, no, no, this is because you parents are too careless." Principal Pang waved his hand: "Chen Yu's athletic talent is very outstanding. Even at the current sprint speed, according to Teacher Niu, he can run all over our province. If the top three get professional training, their performance will be even better. This is a very good talent."
"Perhaps Chen Yu was chased so hard by the dog at that time that he showed extraordinary performance." Chen's mother said hesitantly.
Niu Lanshan: "..."
"It's a mad dog!" Chen Erke added again: "A mad dog is more powerful than an ordinary dog. My brother must be scared."
"Yes." Mother Chen nodded: "I have seen on TV that people can easily explode their potential in dangerous situations. My Chen Yu's athletic talent may not be as high as the principal thinks."
"..." Niu Lanshan stood up slowly and rubbed his face with trembling hands: "School... Principal, everyone, I... I will go to the bathroom first."
After that, he staggered away like a zombie and disappeared around the corner of the restaurant...
"What's wrong with Teacher Niu?" Mother Chen asked Principal Pang in confusion.
"But... maybe I'm not feeling well." Principal Pang covered his fat face.
Chen Yu lowered his head...
