Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 469 I'm Back
Natsuki stood at the counter with nothing to do, watching Tachibana Aya sitting in front of him and playing with his mobile phone.The store manager was chatting with the customers again, but Mayumi was the only one working conscientiously.

Sure enough, it was better to sit at the counter, and you didn't have to move around to clear away the cups and plates. Either Mayumi did it, or the store manager did it when someone else was talking. Everything on the scene was peaceful.

Until Xia Zhi's cell phone rang.

Xia Zhi took out his mobile phone from his pocket, took a look at it, and found that it was an alarm clock. It was already around 05:30 in the afternoon. Xia Zhi had not forgotten the reason why he set this alarm clock.After turning off the alarm clock, Xia Zhi looked up to find the store manager's position. The first thing he saw was Aya Tachibana looking at him curiously.

"what happened?"

"Nothing, it's time to go back and cook for Mengmeng."

"Eat? Do I want to go there?"

"Don't come. I'll come over and cook it for you later, or if you're hungry, just ask the store manager to cook you something to eat."

Xia Zhi replied casually, and then found the store manager who had gone to the innermost table of the store and was talking to Uncle Nakamura. Then he walked past the counter and came to the store manager's side.

"Store manager, I want to go back to the apartment first."

"Huh? Is something okay? It's unexpectedly early today." The store manager was a little surprised, and even Uncle Nakamura next to him was also surprised.

"Xia Zhi, are you going on a date with Tachibana again?"

"It's nothing, please don't make random guesses." Xia Zhi sighed helplessly. How much he hoped to meet some normal people, but unfortunately, this was an unrealistic dream: "I will go back to my sister Make dinner, I will come back after it is done, it will take about four to five to ten minutes, so store manager, please stop running around."

"How could I run away? I'm the store manager! Does the store manager's matter count as running away?" The store manager glared at Xia Zhi dissatisfied: "Since you want to eat, why don't you take my sister over here?" Come and eat together. Oh, this seems troublesome, so let’s do it. I have to go home to eat anyway. You can take Caijiang with you when you go back, so that I don’t have to cook in the store. Every day After eating one meal at the store and another meal at home, Sayuri said I seemed to have gained weight.”

"...Can't you skip a meal?"

"How can that be done?" the store manager said confidently: "If you put something to eat in front of you but don't eat it, the food will make you cry. As a person, no, as a chef with more than half a degree, you don't understand such a simple thing. Does it make sense?"

What else can Xia Zhi say?Nothing more can be said.

"Anyway, I have to go back first and come back later. Mayumi will go back when the time comes, so don't run away. If you run away, I will tell Sayuri-san to let you sleep on the floor tonight. "

???

"I'm the store manager! Why should the store clerk order the store manager to look after the store? I also have to go back for dinner on time. What if Xiaoyao is hungry?"

"Who told you that you are not a girl?" Xia Zhi spread his hands: "I also know that you don't want Xiaoyao to go hungry, so I also thought of a way. I will call Sister Sayuri later and tell them that they don't have to wait. You have dinner together. In this way, you can stay and look at the store, Mayumi doesn't have to work overtime, I can go back to make dinner for my sister, and Xiaoyao doesn't have to go hungry. Isn't this the best of all worlds? "

"Do you have any misunderstanding about the best of all worlds?" The store manager glared at Xia Zhi, while Uncle Nakamura next to him smiled happily: "I think this is good."

"It's not you who can't go back to eat with your daughter. Of course you think it's okay." The store manager clicked his tongue and looked at Xia Zhi: "Then hurry up. Maybe I can go back in time for dinner. , our family usually eats dinner relatively late, after all, Sayuri is also very busy at work."

"Got it." Xia Zhi responded, then turned around and prepared to walk towards the staff room. After taking two steps, he suddenly felt that it was very troublesome and thought that he might as well go out wearing this outfit.So he walked to the door, said hello to Mayumi, and told Tachibana Aya some things: "Don't cause trouble, don't run around, stay here honestly, I'll come back later. If you really can't wait any longer, go find The store manager will make you something to eat."

"I'm not a child!" Tachibana Aya raised her hands in dissatisfaction and protested: "How long will it take? Will I starve to death?"

"You won't starve to death, don't worry."

Then Xia Zhi turned around and walked towards the store door, left the coffee shop and walked towards the apartment.Walking at a faster speed than before, although he was a little tired, Xia Zhi finally reduced the not-so-long distance to a few minutes and walked downstairs to the apartment.He walked up to the second floor and opened the door of his apartment. Xia Zhi, who originally didn't do much when he came back because he lived alone, shouted "I'm back" in an unskilled way because of Xia Meng's arrival, but there was no Get a response.

Are you sleeping?Xia Zhi took off her shoes and walked into the apartment. The door of the room was closed. Xia Zhi originally thought that Xia Meng was asleep in the room. She was about to go in and take a look. As soon as she walked to the sofa, she saw the color difference on the sofa. Very obvious clothing material.As soon as he lowered his head, he saw Xia Meng, who was sleeping peacefully with his Akita dog on his pillow. He was holding the ghost that he had taken out of the room with his hands, sleeping sideways on the sofa.There is also a book placed next to the Akita dog. Maybe Xia Meng fell asleep again because she felt sleepy while reading the book?

He has already walked into the room to get the ghost, why can't he sleep on the bed... Xia Zhi sighed in his heart.The dress Xia Meng was wearing was the one she wore to bed. She probably hadn't changed her clothes before. It originally fit her well, but when she was lying on the sofa, the hem of her skirt had been rolled up to just above her knees.Xia Zhi bent down and gently flattened the skirt for her, and considered whether to buy another thin quilt for Xia Meng to prevent her from catching a cold while sleeping on the sofa.Xia Zhi's original intention was not to let her sleep on the sofa, but dogs... Jiangshan's nature is hard to change. Although she will change if she is told a little bit, but no one cares about her, she will become whatever she wants. I have a slight headache.

Xia Zhi's movements did not wake up Xia Meng who was sleeping. Xia Zhi stood up and looked in the direction of the dining table. He did not see bowls or plates. It was probably because Xia Meng had taken them into the kitchen. Such a small thing She'll still do it.

Well, it's time to start preparing dinner.
