I listened to your advice and finally became a male god.
Chapter 424 Godfather
Chapter 424 Godfather
At the door of the store, two young girls wearing antique shop assistant uniforms were smiling and preparing to greet customers.
"Hello sir, welcome to Yi Jiangnan."
"How many of you are there?"
As soon as Zhang Yang stepped forward, two people came to meet him.
"Me? I'm looking for someone." Zhang Yang smiled and nodded to the two of them in a friendly manner.
This smile actually made the two little girls' heartbeats faster.
"Who are you looking for?" the little girl asked softly, blinking her eyes.
"Your boss lady." Zhang Yang walked straight into the store.
The interior of the store is decorated in an antique style with a Jiangnan style. It is quiet and peaceful, far away from the noisy and bustling atmosphere of ordinary restaurants.
There were customers dining by the floor-to-ceiling windows, but they were all well-dressed and spoke in low voices.
You can tell at first glance that this restaurant targets a different crowd.
"Sir, sir?" Two little girls followed behind him.
"You guys go ahead and do your work. I've seen someone." Zhang Yang smiled and waved at the figure in the distance.
That was the hot mom Li Xiaoxuan.
The two shop assistants were about to speak... in the distance...
"Mr. Zhang..." From afar, Li Xiaoxuan looked up in disbelief, with surprise and joy flashing across her face.
Zhang Yang smiled and opened his arms.
The next second, the hot little mom came running over and threw herself straight into his arms.
The shop assistants present were all shocked.
Who is this? Could it be?
"Mr. Zhang, you're back." Li Xiaoxuan held Zhang Yang tightly and said with her head raised in his arms.
"Come and see, you've done a great job on this store." Zhang Yang held the mature and beautiful body in his arms and praised.
Li Xiaoxuan pursed her lips and smiled, then looked around and took a deep breath, "Everyone come here."
The surrounding shop assistants gathered around.
"Let me introduce to you all, this is Mr. Zhang, the owner of our restaurant!" Li Xiaoxuan introduced solemnly to those around her.
Everyone was suddenly stunned.
As expected, he really is the boss.
"One of the bosses." Zhang Yang explained with a smile, "Everyone has worked hard. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and your salary will be calculated six times as much as possible. This is my welcome gift to everyone."
As soon as the words were spoken, the surrounding area instantly became a little excited.
"Mr. Zhang is so cool!"
"Thank you Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Yang held Li Xiaoxuan's hand, walked to the side, found a seat and sat down.
After a while, a few plates of exquisite side dishes and a glass of wine for each person were served.
Li Xiaoxuan sipped her wine, looked at Zhang Yang, and told him about her experiences over the past six months.
"I'm coming over here, my mom is helping me take care of the baby now."
"The store has hired some people. I've basically been here lately, at Yijiangnan."
"Thank you for your hard work." Zhang Yang smiled and held Li Xiaoxuan's hand.
"But..." Li Xiaoxuan hesitated for a moment, "But we have been losing money for several months. It's my fault for not running the store well."
"That's ridiculous. Don't be impatient. Take your time." Zhang Yang consoled him. "Reputation is built up slowly. Don't worry about whether you make a profit or not. Just make sure the food and service are good, and things will naturally get better in the future."
"Really?" Li Xiaoxuan asked in a low voice.
"Absolutely true. Let me try the food." Zhang Yang took a few bites of the food and nodded continuously.
The food cooked by this chef, who was hired at a high price, is indeed very authentic.
Normally, if such a big store suffers losses for months in a row, an ordinary boss would not be able to sustain it for long, but he doesn't care.
It doesn’t matter how many months you lose.
This store can definitely be open forever, year after year. As long as the taste is good and the reputation is good, there will always be more and more customers.
He doesn't care about losses or profits, but Li Xiaoxuan does.
"By the way, Tongtong will go to elementary school next year, right?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Yes, you still care about Tongtong?" Li Xiaoxuan asked with suddenly gentle eyes.
"This child is very likable." Zhang Yang said, "I think the school district of your current house is not very ideal. I happen to be free this afternoon, so I will buy you a house in the school district so that it will be convenient for your child to go to school in the future."
He had heard that the child’s household registration had always been with Li Xiaoxuan.
In this way, when I move into the new house with Li Xiaoxuan, I can naturally use the school district.
As for the idea of raising someone else's child...
It's okay to say it to ordinary people.
To him, it was just a drop in the ocean, a tiny expense, and he was happy with it.
"What?" Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoxuan was stunned and the wine glass at her mouth tilted slightly.
Zhang Yang smiled and took out a tissue, gently wiping the red wine from the corner of Li Xiaoxuan's mouth.
"Don't refuse, don't ask too many questions, this is a reward for you."
"But··"
"Don't worry, have you finished eating?" Zhang Yang asked again. "Follow me when you're done."
Happiness came so suddenly that Li Xiaoxuan was in a daze.
In the car, Li Xiaoxuan suddenly grabbed Zhang Yang's hand.
"what happened?"
"Mr. Zhang, I know that what I said is a bit wishful thinking...but..." Li Xiaoxuan bit her lip lightly, "Can you be Tongtong's godfather?"
"Godfather? Sure." Zhang Yang nodded in agreement.
He has this kind of relationship with Li Xiaoxuan, and Tongtong is a likable child, so it might not be a bad idea for him to adopt her as his goddaughter.
"Really?" Instantly, Li Xiaoxuan smiled widely, and couldn't help hugging Zhang Yang and giving him a passionate kiss.
At this moment, she could finally accept the fact that Zhang Yang wanted to buy a house for her, or to say, buy a school district house for Tongtong.
After all, there is a reason to follow.
In the afternoon, housing prices in Yinghai’s famous dual-school district community once soared to the highest in Yinghai.
Even now, it still dominates the Yinghai property market.
In the sales office, Li Xiaoxuan held Zhang Yang's arm and, under the guidance of the sales lady, looked at the sand table and the apartment types.
"Sir, what size are you considering buying?" The sales lady looked at Zhang Yang and asked softly.
"If I'm going to buy one, I'd better buy one that can get everything done in one go." Zhang Yang looked at the apartment layout.
The largest apartment here is 180 square meters, and including the price of the house, it costs more than 4 million yuan.
A house worth more than four million yuan would be considered old and dilapidated in Shanghai, but here, you can actually buy a 180-square-meter house in a double school district.
"Is it too big?" Li Xiaoxuan whispered in Zhang Yang's ear.
"Who would complain about a big house?" Zhang Yang said with a smile, "If it has a few dozen square meters more, two more rooms and a bathroom, it can't be considered big, right?"
In his concept, what is big?
Only a place covering several acres and with a building area of several hundred square meters can be considered large. As for this place?
Is there anything wrong with buying a more spacious one?
The beautiful sales lady standing by smiled happily as she listened, and quickly led the two of them to choose a house.
The price of each house varies according to the floor on which it is located. Zhang Yang took a look at the sand table and directly chose the building with the best view in the community, and chose the 16th floor.
The beautiful sales lady was calculating with her fingers, counting all kinds of discounts and so on.
Zhang Yang didn't want to listen either, and just asked them to bring the contract. They should pay when necessary and issue invoices when necessary. There was no need to waste time, just take it.
After a while.
The money was paid, the invoice was issued, and the purchase contract was written.
Everything was ready. Li Xiaoxuan held the document bag and the house key, and she seemed to be immersed in a sea of happiness.
"I'll recommend someone to you for house decoration. You can go find her later." Zhang Yang thought of designer Xiao Lin again. "I'll pay you the decoration fee."
"Hey...don't." Li Xiaoxuan suddenly said softly. "I want to earn the renovation fee myself. You've helped me so much, my dad's job, and this house. I can't let you pay for the renovation now."
"What's so great about this? Finish the renovation sooner and move in sooner. Isn't it a waste of time to wait until you can earn money?" Zhang Yang said with a smile. "Do you have to be polite to me?"
"Please." Li Xiaoxuan kept begging.
"Okay, then, how about this? I'll give you money for the renovation first, and you can pay me back slowly later. Is that okay?" Zhang Yang shook his head helplessly.
"That...that's fine." Li Xiaoxuan nodded with a red face.
It was three or four in the afternoon, and Zhang Yang planned to go back home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Nowadays, although the family restaurant is thriving, Zhang Zhaohai and his wife do not have to stay in the store and have begun to gradually distance themselves from it.
We will not miss the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner tonight.
Before going back, Zhang Yang sent Li Xiaoxuan all the way to the downstairs of her house.
What a coincidence.
As soon as the car arrived downstairs, two middle-aged men walked out of the corridor holding a little girl.
It was Li’s father, Li’s mother, and Tongtong.
"Tongtong." Li Xiaoxuan got out of the car, bent down and opened her arms.
"Mom! Mom is back!" Tongtong came running over and jumped into Li Xiaoxuan's arms.
Zhang Yang also got out of the car with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang..." Mr. Li walked forward in disbelief, his expression full of restraint.
He is now working as a driver and limousine driver at Zhang Yang's Four Seasons Hotel, earning 20,000 yuan a month. Because of Zhang Yang, he is taken care of in every way in the hotel. He lives a very comfortable life.
"Yeah." Zhang Yang nodded amiably. "How's your work lately, uncle? Are you happy with your work?"
"Thanks to you, Director Zhang, everything is fine. Director An also takes good care of me. My colleagues are also easy to get along with. The work is very easy." Father Li said hurriedly, "Director Zhang, please go up and sit down."
"I won't sit today. Let's do it another day." Zhang Yang declined with a smile, then looked at Tongtong who was looking at him timidly.
As the little girl grows older, she understands more and more.
Plus, I hadn't seen him for a long time, so I was naturally a little shy.
"Don't you recognize me?" He squatted down.
"Tongtong, go quickly." Li Xiaoxuan urged hurriedly.
Li's father and mother, who were standing nearby, were also a little anxious.
Go quickly.
It’s obvious that Mr. Zhang likes Tongtong very much, so hurry up and pick her up!
"Mom..." Tongtong looked shy and hesitant.
"Go ahead, go hug your godfather." Li Xiaoxuan whispered in Tongtong's ear, "From now on, uncle will be your godfather, and I have prepared a big gift for you..."
"Godfather? Do you mean dad?" Tongtong's eyes lit up and she gently left Li Xiaoxuan's arms.
There's no one around to explain it.
Zhang Yang smiled and held Tongtong in his arms, lifting her high.
"Okay, you can call me that."
The little girl smiled brightly immediately, her reservedness instantly disappeared, and she put her arms around Zhang Yang's neck affectionately.
Li's father and mother were instantly overjoyed and looked at Li Xiaoxuan who was standing beside them.
Li Xiaoxuan pursed her lips, smiled and nodded.
After a while, Zhang Yang said goodbye to everyone, got in the car and sped away.
At the same place, Li Xiaoxuan was still holding the hand of Tongtong, who was reluctant to leave, and watched the car go away.
"Xiaoxuan, this..." Li's mother on the side finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked.
"Mom, let's talk about it when we get back." Li Xiaoxuan said with a smile.
At home, Li Xiaoxuan and her parents sat on the sofa and watched Tongtong running around and playing at home.
She took out the folder and took out the house purchase contract.
"Mom and Dad, this is the school district house that Mr. Zhang bought for me and Tongtong. It costs more than four million yuan."
"what!"
"Boss Zhang bought you a house?!"
The couple stood up in shock.
"Mr. Zhang also said that he wanted to be Tongtong's godfather. This house was prepared by him for Tongtong." Li Xiaoxuan added.
The couple was so shocked that they opened their mouths wide and couldn't utter a word.
I don’t know how long it was before Mr. Li sat down on the sofa.
"Mr. Zhang has shown such great love for you and your child! Our family can never repay this kindness! Xiaoxuan..." Father Li suddenly looked at Li Xiaoxuan, "Remember, you will have to spend your whole life to repay him."
"Dad, I know." Li Xiaoxuan nodded slightly.
It's more than just one lifetime. Such kindness can never be repaid in several lifetimes.
She looked at the child and suddenly made a somewhat unfair decision... She wanted to gradually dilute the concept of the child's biological father.
Even if this behavior is somewhat inappropriate.
But what about that?
Can Tongtong's father do this? If he can't, he might as well withdraw from his child's world.
She wants to let Tongtong know who is the one who truly treats her well.
Everything Zhang Yang has done must also be meaningful.
·
In the evening, Zhang Yang returned to Ziyuan No. 1 Villa.
In the garage, Zhang Zhaohai and Song Wenqin's cars were parked, and it seemed that they had both returned today.
He got out of the car, smiled and took out the Yangcheng Lake hairy crab gift box he brought back from the hotel from the trunk, then walked straight to the door of his house.
As soon as you open the door, you are immediately overwhelmed by a sense of familiarity.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back!"
"My son is back!" Zhang Zhaohai was eating pomegranates and watching TV in the living room. When he looked up and saw that it was Zhang Yang, he stood up excitedly.
On the second floor, I could also faintly hear my mother Song Wenqin's voice.
"My son is back! That's great!"
After a while, footsteps were heard and Song Wenqin excitedly came downstairs and ran straight towards him.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and the family of three is finally reunited here to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.
"Mom, steam the crabs." Zhang Yang handed over the hairy crabs in his hand.
"Yes, yes, yes. We have everything we need at home." Song Wenqin happily took the crabs from Zhang Yang's hand, then went to the kitchen and brought out the hairy crabs that had just come out of the steamer.
The hairy crabs are big and plump, and you can tell at first glance that they are fat and yellow with roe.
Zhang Zhaohai was in high spirits and went to the wine cabinet to get some good wine, preparing to have a few drinks with his son today.
In the evening, the family of three gathered around the table.
While eating the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner, people clinked glasses and chatted.
"How long will you stay this time?" Zhang Zhaohai asked with a sip of his wine.
"We'll leave after the holiday." Zhang Yang said.
"Okay, a man should have great ambitions. Mom and Dad know that you have a big business and you don't have many opportunities to come back." Zhang Zhaohai picked up his wine glass and clinked it with his son's. "Don't worry about your hard work outside. Your parents are doing well at home. You don't need to worry."
Zhang Yang nodded, raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
During this Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is full outside the window, and families are reunited.
The Zhang family has crossed the class barrier step by step, and at this moment and here on the Mid-Autumn night, they are quietly enjoying every bit of family reunion.
