I'm a street kid, but my wife, a policewoman, won't divorce her

Chapter 596 Reflection on a meal!
Chen Xiao thought that Zhu Nianying might be dead.

And it is very likely that the body was buried within the area of ​​Yanghu Lake.

His heart was no longer filled with excitement, but with an indescribable feeling.

In his subconscious, his reason had always told him that the possibility of a person who had been missing for six years still being alive was very small.

But everyone has a lucky mentality.

This also applies to Chen Xiao.

Now, the possibility of Zhu Nianying's death has become greater.

Chen Xiao had to think about a question that was more important to him.

The question is how to investigate the Zhu Nianying case while winning the battle against the Qi family.

Or to put it simply, it is about how to use any clues he now guesses or suspects!
After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Xiao still couldn't come up with a particularly good solution.

It was not until Chen Xiao saw a restaurant in front that he said to Lao Gui:

"Laogui, let's eat first and then go back."

Lao Gui took a look and nodded, then parked the car in the parking space in front of the hotel.

Chen Xiao himself did not buy any luxury cars, but Guo Qing was doing business in Shenzhen and had various social events, so his car was not bad.

Nowadays, a luxury car that costs at least one million yuan means a high consumption amount.

So the shop owner came out to greet me personally and asked with a smile on his face:
"Are you two bosses having dinner?"

Chen Xiao nodded, and the boss's face was even brighter: "Please come in, the air-conditioning in the private room is on!"

"Let's not sit in the private room. Just make two home-cooked dishes. One is green vegetables, one is stir-fried meat with peppers, and an egg soup will do."

The boss was stunned when he heard this: "Just two dishes and one soup?"

"That's enough for two people."

Lao Gui also smiled and nodded: "It is indeed enough. Any more would be a waste."

Seeing the two talking, the boss was speechless.

A vegetable, a stir-fried meat, and an egg soup, how much money can you make from that?
However, Chen Xiao and the other person had already sat down, so he couldn't say anything else.

But his expression didn't show that he was very happy.

The boss enthusiastically served them tableware and tea, and then scolded the store owner:

"What's wrong with you? Open the door for business. No matter what the customer orders, he is the God of Wealth!"

"Driving such a nice car and ordering such a few dishes, is this called the God of Wealth?"

"Husband, your mentality is wrong. Big customers, small customers, they are all customers! Business is always difficult, so keep your mentality right and don't always think about making a lot of money from so-and-so. Let's cook good food and provide good service. Who knows, they may come to our place next time they have a social event!"

The two spoke in low voices.

Lao Gui didn't hear it, but Chen Xiao heard it clearly.

He was somewhat surprised at the proprietress's words and the pattern.

He also felt that the shop owner was very lucky as the wife he married was only slightly inferior to his.

He was thinking about it in his mind, but suddenly another sentence from the boss's wife made him remember it again.

The saying goes: Business is never easy at any time, so keep a positive attitude and don't always think about making a lot of money from someone!
This sentence is the boss lady's reminder to the boss that you should not be greedy when doing business, but should have a positive attitude and work hard to improve the reputation of the restaurant.

This simple sentence made Chen Xiao suddenly reflect on himself.

Yes.

Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant.

How can you do good business if you don’t have a right mindset?

Chen Xiao has his own business, but he has both a main job and a side job.

His side businesses are Longding, Dong'an, the mobile phone factory that is about to be built in Dongzhou, and the crayfish base.

His real job, as everyone who is familiar with him and has heard of his name knows, is that he is a detective.

As a detective, his main task now is to investigate the case of Zhu Nianying's disappearance. But his mentality is not right.

Because of the emergence of the Qi family, he gradually wanted to use the Zhu Nianying case to allow Long Ding to gain enough status and gain a firm foothold in the Lihai Group.

Although he did not think of sacrificing anyone else's interests to achieve his own interests.

But in fact, there is not much difference between what he and Jin Peng did.

They are all taking advantage of a victim whose life or death is uncertain to achieve their own goals!

Lao Gui keenly noticed that Chen Xiao's mood had become heavy, and mistakenly thought that Chen Xiao was unhappy because of the shop owner's words, so he asked:

"Mr. Chen, how about we go to another restaurant for dinner?"

Chen Xiao raised his head: "No, I just reflected on some things. Not only should we not change places, we should also have a good meal to thank them!"

Then Chen Xiao shouted to the proprietress: "Hello, we need more food."

The proprietress was startled for a moment, then she picked up the menu and walked over with a smile on her face: "Okay, boss, you tell me... I'll remember it."

Chen Xiao looked at Lao Gui and asked, "Let's go to the construction site in Yanghu later. How many workers are there?"

"There are several hundred of them."

"It's too late for lunch, so let's order dinner. We'll probably have to stay on the construction site until the evening. Madam Boss, are you the one who takes the lunch box orders here?"

When the lady boss heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up:
"Yes, of course!"

The lunch box business earns a lot of money, and the quantity is huge, so the profit is naturally considerable.

"Okay, leave me your phone number and order 300 first. I'll count the number of people when we get to the construction site and make up if there's a shortage."

The lady boss was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, what standards are you following?"

"15 yuan is the standard price, and each person gets two bottles of beer. It's best if the weather is hot and the beer is all ice cold. Is that okay?"

"No problem. We can solve any problems ourselves!" the proprietress assured, patting her chest.

Lao Gui looked at Chen Xiao in surprise. It was obvious that he was going to treat the migrant workers on the construction site to a meal.

Why did Chen Xiao suddenly want to do this?

After the proprietress took note, she asked in confusion, "Boss, although I shouldn't ask, I'm still very curious, why did you suddenly order a box lunch for us? The dishes haven't even been served yet, and you haven't tasted the flavor of our restaurant."

"It's simple. The conversation between you and your husband just now reminded me of something. I am very grateful to you."

Chen Xiao said this with a smile, without further explanation.

The proprietress was sensible and stopped asking questions. She hurried to the kitchen to report the good news and make arrangements.

Lao Gui was confused and asked, "Mr. Chen, what did the store owner say just now?"

"When you are a person and do things, you must have a positive attitude."

"That's it?"

"That's it."

Lao Gui scratched his head, still not understanding at all.

But if Lin Xi were here, she would definitely understand the meaning of this sentence.

However, Chen Xiao did not plan to explain so much to Lao Gui. He had already decided that after the meal, he would not consider the matter of Long Ding and the case of Zhu Nianying's disappearance together.

He has already facilitated the cooperation between Long Ding and Li Hai.

He should focus on investigating Zhu Nianying's case.

No matter what kind of person Zhu Nianying is, and no matter whether Zhu Nianying's case can bring him benefits.

He is a detective, and all he has to do is investigate cases, that's all.

As for word of mouth and reputation, the day will come when the truth of the case comes to light.

No matter who found out, it doesn’t matter to Chen Xiao. What matters is that the innocent victims or the deceased can get redress.
