Chapter 2: Sour, Beep! 1
"Hara Likong! Table three, another plate of sweet curry rice!"
Because the curry house is relatively small, the cooking table at the inside of the curry house is equivalent to the kitchen. I shouted loudly to Hua Likong who was busy.
He quickly started making a sweet curry with rice.
I have to say that tricking Hua Likong into the curry restaurant was definitely the best decision I have ever made. Hua Likong is a person with great adaptability. Three days ago, I was still worried whether he could make curry rice strictly according to the exclusive secret recipe passed down by my family. Today, I tasted the curry rice he made by himself, and the taste almost surpassed mine. I really wanted to ask Hua Likong if he was from a family of chefs, but Hua Likong seemed to mind talking about this issue.
"Table number eight wants hot and sour curry rice! Make it spicier!" I shouted at the top of my voice.
"receive!"
Another thing that I particularly admire is that Hua Likong has a really good memory. If I tell him what kind of curry rice the customers want the first time, he will never ask a second time, and he will never make the wrong curry rice.
There is just one thing that I am very helpless about, and that is that Hua Likong likes to order people around.
Of course, the "person" here refers specifically to me, Chi Weiwei.
He always orders me, his boss, to do this and that, like distributing flyers, running errands, etc. - although I don't want to admit that distributing flyers has some effect.
However, what surprised me was that Hua Likong would actually sell his body for the business of the curry house. Whenever there were few customers in the curry house and it was not busy, Hua Likong would act as a "lucky cat" at the door of the curry house. Because of his gentleness and handsomeness, the number of customers in the curry house did increase. Of course, most of them were girls. And they liked to chat with Hua Likong while he was making curry rice, and Hua Likong also enjoyed it.
"Who is the boss here!" A slightly angry and shrill voice came.
I looked at the source of the sound. It was a cute girl at table 3. She had a delicate oval face, a cute ponytail, and a light pink skirt. She had big watery eyes, a small and cute nose, and red lips. She looked very pretty, like a little princess who was throwing a tantrum out of a castle.
I remember she ordered a sweet curry rice and I had already served the rice to the table, so there was problem of slow serving.
Then the only possible reason is that it is the same as that beautiful sister last time!
Thinking of this, my clenched palms began to sweat slightly.
You know, I still have lingering fears from the last incident. Looking at the angry expression on the face of the girl at table number three, it seems that she is even more angry than the last time.
I quickly slid over to Hua Likong, who was busy making curry rice at the counter, and gently tugged at the sleeve of his clean white shirt. I lowered my voice and said, "Hua Likong, there's a small problem with table number three. Go and coordinate."
Hua Likong put some peanut butter on a small plate. Seeing that I was pulling at his sleeve, he finally turned his neck, looked at me and whispered, "Come on, Miss, you've been a boss for so long, you can't be afraid of handling such a small matter, right?"
"I...I...am not scared." I'm just afraid of quarreling with girls. After all, quarreling with girls is really scary.
"I'm busy now. I still have several servings of curry rice to prepare. You can take care of them first." Hua Likong said this and walked away with the curry rice and peanut butter.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and move step by step towards table number three.
"Hey! What kind of service attitude is this? It took me so long to call the waiter and he finally came!"
I rubbed my ears gently. I have to say that this girl's sonic attack power is really strong. The sound echoed in my ears for a long time before slowly dissipating.
"Excuse me...is there a problem?" I asked cautiously. The guest looked really angry.
"What kind of curry rice did you make? It's so sour that it makes my teeth fall out!"
Before I could react, I was stunned by her sudden words.
Sour? Did you hear that right?
Thinking of this, I looked at her black pupils almost reflexively, and touched the crystal bell on my left wrist inconspicuously. I saw that the depths of her clear eyes seemed to ripple for a moment, and then returned to normal.
Alas, it’s all my fault for dawdling. I came late, a minute has passed, and I can’t see her memories clearly.
"Bang!" It was the sound of a plate breaking.
Before I could react, I saw ceramic fragments and the curry rice that Hua Likong had carefully made all over the floor. I looked up at the girl in front of me with her arms folded and a face full of anger. The word "cute" could never describe her...
"Call your boss over! I only talk to the boss!" the girl said loudly and arrogantly.
Before I had the chance to say sorry to the customers in the curry house, they looked at me and the girl one after another, paid their bills and left.
A surge of heat rose in my chest, and I was furious for no reason. I couldn't help but yell at the girl, "Hey, what are you doing? You scared away all my customers! And I'm the boss, you broke my plate, you have to pay for it!"
I have been running a curry house for a long time. Although business is bad, this is the first time I have encountered such a rude customer. He even dared to break my plate. It is really abominable.
"I'm very sorry. This is the waitress of our curry restaurant. She broke up with her boyfriend today, so she's in a bad mood. Please understand." Hua Likong's gentle voice came, and the girl who was about to speak shut up as if with magic.
But, I am unhappy.
"Who are you talking about? Who broke up? Hua Likong, are you sick? You... wuwuwu! Let go, wuwuwu!"
Before I could finish the words, my mouth was covered tightly by a beautiful and slender hand, and the faint fragrance of grass drifted into my nose.
I just felt my face suddenly burning, and what was even worse was that Hua Likong's aura was still drifting towards me, slowly invading my mind. Before my face turned completely red, I struggled to break free.
"What are you doing?" I gasped, blushing, and shook Hua Likong's hand away.
"Hey." Hua Likong leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Don't forget what is clearly written in the contract. If the curry shop encounters any problems, you must listen to my advice 60 percent of the time. 60 percent..."
Damn contract!
"I know." I replied gloomily.
Hua Likong walked quickly towards table number three, while I turned my head away and crossed my arms in anger, not wanting to pay attention. I don't know how long it took, but Hua Likong suddenly called me, "Chi Weiwei, another serving of sweet curry rice!"
I was not happy about it. I knew at a glance that it was made for that girl again. I gritted my teeth and shouted angrily, "Why do you have to make me do it?"
"Contract..."
"I know!" I was so excited.
I was busy at the kitchen counter, not caring whether it tasted good or not, since I wasn't going to eat it anyway. And I guess that girl couldn't taste sweetness either.
"Eat." I put the curry rice on table number three and called them, but my tone was not very nice.
"You're just a waitress, but you insist on taking on this responsibility. You're so stupid." The girl glanced at me and seemed very dissatisfied.
"you……"
As soon as I opened my mouth, Hua Likong dragged me behind him. At this moment, I really wanted to vent, but Hua Likong's hand, which was almost as strong as a thousand pounds, held me tightly.
Damn Hua Likong!
I don't remember how many times I gritted my teeth, but I felt that my gums were almost broken by myself. I watched the girl scoop a spoonful of curry rice into her mouth with a fake smile, and then frowned into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
"It's so sour, really sour!" the girl shouted.
Hua Likong stepped forward immediately and asked carefully, "Are you sure it tastes sour?"
The girl nodded seriously.
My hand was quickly grabbed, and I shook it off in panic, shouting, "What are you doing?"
"Hurry up." Hua Likong reminded helplessly.
"Oh." I touched the bell on my wrist reluctantly and looked into the girl's pupils.
Wow! I saw a super handsome guy who is as good as Hua Likong!
He has a slender figure and a handsome face. Just as I was about to find out what he was like, I was startled by a loud scream.
"Wow! Your bell is silent! You actually like to wear a broken bell!" The girl's shrill voice attacked my ears again.
"This is not a broken bell! This is a silent bell that has been passed down in my family for eighteen generations!" I explained angrily.
"Huh? There is a silent bell? If there is no sound, why should it ring? It's so magical." The girl's temper seemed to be a little better than before.
"How should I know? It's none of your business." I replied unhappily.
"Okay, from now on you can come here to eat curry rice for free, until the curry rice you eat no longer tastes sour." Hua Likong said friendly with a smile.
What? I don't agree! Hua Likong, curry rice also costs money, okay!
"Thank you. I'll come again tomorrow." The girl smiled at Hua Likong in a good mood, then left without paying any attention to me.
Are you coming again tomorrow?
"Hualikong! I didn't agree to give you curry rice for free. Do you think I opened a curry restaurant for fun? I also need funds to turn around, okay?" I dragged Hua Likong to the cooking table and asked sharply.
"But we are in the promotion period of the curry house, and we want to make the customers who come to the curry house become regular customers." Hua Likong said seriously.
"It's not free every day! If she keeps tasting sour and comes to eat free curry every day, then won't the curry house have to close down?"
"So, at the critical moment, your usefulness should be reflected. Chi Weiwei, you have already seen a little bit of the reason why Yining can eat sour curry rice, so whether Yining can eat non-sour curry rice depends on you." Hua Likong said to me almost earnestly.
He even knew that the girl's name was Yining so quickly! Damn it!
"I don't agree, I protest!" I protested firmly. If I had to face that hot-tempered young lady from Yining, I might as well be beaten to death.
"Chi Weiwei, do you still want to go to the curry restaurant?" Hua Likong continued.
"That's nonsense. I definitely hope that the curry house can do very well and have a booming business."
"That's it. If you solve Yining's problem, maybe she will recommend her friends, and her friends' friends will recommend other friends. If you keep going like this, business will not be too bad." Hua Likong continued to coax.
"Why don't you just go?" I muttered reluctantly.
"The point is, you're the only one who sees Yining's problems."
"No, I don't want to go." I continued to struggle.
"Contract..."
"I know, I know, I'll take care of it." Why didn't I read the contract carefully at the beginning? Now that things have come to this, I wonder if I have inadvertently transferred the curry house to Hua Likong. Damn Hua Likong!
