123: Chapter 0123: You Won’t Even Give Me Your Phone Number 123: Chapter 0123: You Won’t Even Give Me Your Phone Number Li Fu was very surprised. He did not expect that Ye Qiu really had more than just eating here in mind. But he was very curious, why did Ye Qiu’s father want to take over the place? “Could it be that your father runs restaurants?” “No, he just runs a congee and noodle shop and a barbecue stall.” If that was the case, Li Fu thought Ye Qiu’s father was taking a big risk. They had never run a restaurant before, yet they were interested in taking over this place. Even so, Li Fu also thought that if he sublet the place, he would feel much relieved. “If your father is willing to take over, I am willing to sublet it to him for forty thousand yuan a month. Of course, the rent is paid once a year, and I have already paid all of this year’s rent. Next year, the real owner will come to collect the rent.” Li Fu said. “Won’t you reconsider, Mr. Li?” Ye Qiu smiled. “No need. I am very clear about this place. But, if your father takes over and starts losing money, don’t blame me for not being honest.” When he confirmed it, Ye Qiu still asked him to reconsider. But now, Ye Qiu asked him to bring a piece of paper, preparing to write a prescription for calming and nourishing his heart and nerves for him to take care of. Ye Qiu finished writing the prescription and handed it to him, saying, “Mr. Li, here is my phone number. When you have thought it through and really want to sublet the place, you can call me. Then I will come with my father to sign the contract with you.” “Dr. Ye, I understand. You are truly a benefactor I have met.” Li Fu smiled. Holding the prescription Ye Qiu wrote for him, and thinking about finally being able to sublet the place, transferring the burden onto the young man’s father, Li Fu felt very relaxed. He personally saw Ye Qiu off outside and noticed that Ye Qiu came on an electric bike and wore ordinary clothes. He thought Ye Qiu might be a very low-key second-generation rich kid. Ye Qiu rode his electric bike away from there and headed back to the congee and noodle shop. When he returned to the congee and noodle shop, it was already past four in the afternoon, and there was still an hour until Liu Lingxiu’s class was over. As he parked his bike, he saw Ye Xue and Chen Fang still busy, while Ye Weidong was playing on his phone. He told people that the phone was a gift from Ye Qiu and said it cost only a couple of thousand. Naturally, people didn’t believe him. Later, when he searched online and found it cost four or five thousand, he thought Ye Qiu was really wasteful. However, since Ye Qiu could make money, he as the father didn’t say much. Seeing Ye Qiu return, Ye Weidong asked, “Where did you go just now?” “I went to the hospital to treat Mr. Zhou. He has been discharged. Then I went to check out the palace cuisine location.” “Have you really decided?” Although Ye Weidong had already considered it, he was still a bit scared. After all, he knew his own limitations. “I am preparing to sublet it. It might cost about one hundred and fifty thousand per month, and we’ll need to renovate it first.” Ye Qiu said. “How much will that cost?” “Initially, it might cost over a million. Besides paying this year’s rent to Mr. Li, we’ll need to spend fifty thousand for a luxurious renovation.” “Then your five million will be gone in no time?” Ye Weidong asked. “It doesn’t matter. Money is made to be spent. If we have to work as hard as you did, it’s not worth earning that hard money.” Think about it, he was the youngest and most skilled Imperial Physician in the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau. In this urban area of the human world, he had never imagined such things. The things he is doing now are completely different from his original identity. “Dad, at first I’ll teach you the methods and secrets of palace cuisine, but then, you might need to find some people to learn because it will be impossible for both of us to do everything ourselves.” “Finding people is easy, but I am worried that if the secrets of the palace cuisine get out, our delicious palace dishes will lose customers to other restaurants.” “Dad, you understand me well. So, the key is to find at least eight or nine suitable young talents. At first, I suggest looking for relatives, but thinking about it, it might cause more trouble if there are issues later. So, it’s better to find some students from culinary schools in Jinling, sign lifetime contracts with them, to ensure the secrets don’t get out.” “I understand. I’ll handle this.” Ye Weidong increasingly realized that he and his son were becoming more different. He didn’t know why the once cowardly, timid, and self-abased Ye Qiu had completely changed? Could it be the ancestors’ blessings? Or was it that Ye Qiu’s genes were different from ordinary people? Ye Weidong couldn’t understand. “How about we close the shop for the next few days so that Mom and Sister don’t have to work so hard? During the renovation, they can rest at home.” Ye Weidong knew very well that Ye Qiu was concerned about Chen Fang and Ye Xue. At five-ten in the afternoon, Ye Qiu rode his electric bike to Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School. He waited under the teaching building for a while and saw Liu Lingxiu coming down holding her study materials. She knew that Ye Qiu would be there waiting for her. Liu Lingxiu put her study materials in the front bike basket, and when she and Ye Qiu started walking towards the school gate with their bikes, Su Luoluo quickly caught up from upstairs. Coming to Ye Qiu’s side, he could already smell the familiar fragrance from her, but he didn’t give Su Luoluo a second glance. “Ye Qiu, what’s your phone number?” “I don’t know.” Ye Qiu said. “Hey, you’re so stingy! You bought a phone for Liu Lingxiu, but you won’t even give me your phone number!” Su Luoluo seemed very angry and said. Ye Qiu stopped and said to her, “It’s up to me whether I want to or not.” “You! I don’t want to talk to you anymore!” Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu continued to walk forward, Su Luoluo already knew that Ye Qiu had indeed bought a phone for Liu Lingxiu. But now, Ye Qiu wouldn’t even give her his phone number. What was the point of asking him for his number? She didn’t know why, but Su Luoluo suddenly felt like crying. “Ye Qiu, why didn’t you give her your number?” Liu Lingxiu asked. “I don’t talk to her usually, so what’s the point of giving her my number?” Liu Lingxiu felt that Ye Qiu’s actions hurt Su Luoluo a lot. She was a gentle, kind, and simple girl. As for how Ye Qiu and Su Luoluo used to be, she almost forgot. The two of them reached the school gate, and Liu Lingxiu got on the back seat of the electric bike. As Ye Qiu rode towards Liu Lingxiu’s house, Su Luoluo stood at the school gate, dumbfoundedly watching the scene.
