Chapter 56 Qi Meilan’s surprise

Around 03:30 in the afternoon of the next day, Yang Xingyu finished the goods for sale in the evening and handed over the rest of the work to his cousin, Song Xiaoqiang, Cheng Baofa and Jiang Jie.

They need to deliver the finished roast duck, braised vegetables, cold dishes, etc. to 12 stores one by one.

Yang Xingyu took the time to take a shower, changed his clothes, packed the roast duck, etc., then rode his motorcycle straight to his hometown in the county.

After thinking about it last night, he has decided not to play the romantic game before getting married.

He was afraid that he would play to the end and lose completely.

He knew in his heart that it was shameful to have two boats.

But reason told him that eggs cannot be put in one basket, let alone feelings.

Could it be that feelings are not as precious as eggs?
……

At almost five o'clock, Yang Xingyu came to the alley next to the experimental middle school where Qi Meilan worked.

This alley is very quiet. There are tall plane trees on both sides of the road. The dense canopy of the trees covers the alley into a tree-lined avenue.

When he got here, he turned off the motorcycle, parked it, got off the car and squatted on the side of the road to wait patiently.

Before setting off from the city, he had already sent a message to Qi Meilan.

He just sent another message, telling her that he had arrived and was waiting for her in this alley.

"Wait a moment, I'll be here right away."

Here is her reply.

He waited for about half an hour. A red Buick car drove up and stopped next to him. The passenger window slowly lowered, revealing Qi Meilan in the driver's seat.

I haven’t seen her for a while, but she is still dignified and beautiful.

"Yang Xingyu! Get in the car! I'll take you somewhere."

Qi Meilan greeted with a bright smile.

Yang Xingyu was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse. He stood up and agreed, went to the trunk of his motorcycle to take out the food he had brought for her, then walked over, opened the passenger door, and sat in.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"You'll know when it arrives!"

Qi Meilan glanced at the two packing boxes in his hand, said something, turned the car around, and merged into the main road in the middle of the street.

Yang Xingyu looked at her and glanced at her seat subconsciously. Sure enough, the driver's seat was filled to the brim with her seats, even beyond the scope of some seats.

He knew that some men didn't like women with this kind of figure. The reason seemed to be that they were afraid that they would always be hanging around the door.

But he liked this figure the most.

Every time he sees a woman with this kind of figure, it's like when he saw a peach for the first time when he was a child, and his heart is always eager to take a bite.

He is not afraid that he will always be left hanging at the door.

As a grown man, he never feels that there is any door that he cannot enter.

"Hey! How long has it been since we last met?"

Qi Meilan, who was driving, suddenly asked.

Yang Xingyu held the packing box in both hands. Hearing this, he glanced at her and saw that she was focused on the road ahead and not looking at him.

"It's been more than a month!"

He remembered that the last time he met her was on the riverside pier, and that time he also gave her a roast duck. It was the first day he tried to make roast duck. He kept his promise and let her taste it first.

That was also the day when he lied to her and told her to give her a gift and asked her to close her eyes first.

As a result, what he gave her was a kiss.

Afterwards, she sent a message to condemn him, and he took the opportunity to propose to her and asked her to be his girlfriend, but she refused.

Also that night, when he went to the city to deliver roast duck to Zhen Xin to taste, Zhen Xin offered to lend him 50 yuan to start a business.He was moved by Zhen Xin at that time, and he never met Qi Meilan again. During this period, Qi Meilan took the initiative to ask him out, but he ignored her.

"Yes! It's been more than a month, and you haven't been able to find time to have a meal with me for such a long time. It seems that you have been really busy recently! Is business going well?"

Before she finished the last word, she turned to look at him.

Although there was still a smile on her face, Yang Xingyu could tell that she was not in a beautiful mood at this time.

So, after being silent for a few seconds, he decided to give her a reason to calm down.

"There is one thing I haven't told you, mainly because I'm afraid that if things fail, you will also be disappointed."

Qi Meilan turned to look at him again curiously, "What's going on?"

Yang Xingyu: "I recently opened two roast duck restaurants in the city. It took me a lot of time and energy to rent the store, decorate it, recruit people, purchase kitchen utensils, etc., so I don't have time to see you."

He did not say that he had recently opened 12 stores in the city, only two.

There are two reasons.

First, the funds he originally borrowed from relatives, friends, and parents, plus the little savings he had left, were only enough to open two roast duck restaurants in the city, and the locations were not very good.

The funds for the other 10 stores were lent to him by Zhen Xin.

He didn't want to use the money Zhen Xin lent him and the store he opened as a bargaining chip to impress Qi Meilan. He couldn't be so shameless.

two……

It's because he hopes that his relationship with Qi Meilan can be pure, and he also hopes that if Qi Meilan finally falls in love with him, it won't be because of those 12 stores.

He had tried to use financial conditions to pick up girls many times before his rebirth, with a high success rate, but he couldn't find the relationship he wanted.

For him, it is only now that he has not become successful that he will try to fall in love.

When he really starts his career in this life, if he hasn't found that person yet, he won't be able to fall in love again.

Because at that time, he couldn't tell whether a woman wanted to be with him because she liked him more as a person or because she liked his money more.

"what?"

Qi Meilan looked over with surprise on her face, "Are you serious? You really opened two stores in the city recently? How is the business? Have they opened yet?"

Yang Xingyu nodded slightly, "It's not bad! It's been open for more than a week."

The surprise on Qi Meilan's face turned into a smile, a bright smile.

As she drove, she couldn't help but look at Yang Xingyu frequently in the passenger seat.

I couldn't help but say: "Awesome, old classmate! You, you are such a quiet person, and you suddenly did such a big thing. Before, you said you wanted to sell in the countryside for a while to accumulate experience and capital! Why? Recently, you suddenly went to the city to open a store? And you opened two stores at once? Aren’t you strapped for funds? Why do you suddenly have money? "

Yang Xingyu looked at the surprise smile on her face, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

He opened 12 stores in the city at one time, but Zhen Xin still refused to confirm her relationship with him. She even said in front of her mother that he was a food delivery person.

And he had just told Qi Meilan about two stores, and Qi Meilan was so surprised that the way she looked at him was different.

Although he opened 12 stores, 50 yuan was lent to him by Zhen Xin.

But Zhen Xin’s mother didn’t know the inside story.

It seems that... in Zhen Xin's opinion, even if he opened 12 stores, he would not be able to get her mother's approval.

Such a huge gap made him feel very complicated.

“Most of the funding was borrowed.”

He speaks the truth.

Qi Meilan snorted and said with a smile: "It's normal to borrow money when doing business! The most important thing is to be able to start a business. Oh, by the way, you just said that the business of those two stores is okay, is that true? If it’s true, then the money you borrowed can definitely be repaid! It’s nothing.”
