Days after Breaking up with My Ex

Chapter 225 : Hire A Chef

I left the hotel and immediately called Old Gao.

"Are you awake?" Old Gao's voice came through.

"You sent me to the hotel yesterday?" I couldn't wait to ask.

"Ah? Damn, you don't remember? I walked to the hotel behind your back. I took care of you for almost another night and didn't sleep well. Aren't you too heartless?" Old Gao complained.

"It's broken."

Old Gao sent me back to the hotel. I really didn't remember anything.

It seemed like that part of my brain was a dream. I didn't tell Old Gao much. I was so upset. I hung up the phone and started to go back to the restaurant.

On the way, I thought of Guzheng again. When I left with Lin Ya yesterday, Guzheng was very angry. But at this moment, I really don't have the strength to apologize to Guzheng.

Back at the restaurant, everyone obviously saw that I was not in good condition. My body was finally overdrawn. I wonder if my heart was too depressed.

She almost fell to the ground. She had wanted to carry the disease, but she didn't think she could. Old Gao took me to the hospital. He seemed to have something to say to me on the way, but he didn't say anything to me.

After taking his temperature, he didn't expect his mother to have a fever of 40 degrees. No wonder he couldn't resist it. After the infusion, I wanted to go back to the hotel, but Old Gao sent me to the neighborhood and told me to go home and rest more. Never mind the restaurant. It had just snowed and there weren't many people today.

I didn't push myself any further, so I went home and lay down on the bed to rest.

However, not long after, the door rang.

I came to the door feebly and opened the door. I didn't expect Guzheng to be standing at the door.

I was surprised that she would come to me.

"Why didn't you tell me you were sick?" Guzheng said worriedly, with a hint of anger.

I scratched my head and said sheepishly, "Weren't you still mad at me yesterday? How dare I tell you?"

"You won't tell me if you're angry, will you? You're breaking up with me, aren't you?" Guzheng looked at me and asked.

I smiled bitterly. The initiative to end our relationship was in Guzheng's hands. I had no right to' break up' with her. I said to Guzheng, "I'm sorry. I left you like that yesterday."

"Forget it."

I didn't expect Guzheng to turn the matter over so easily.

I didn't expect Guzheng to be so magnanimous. It was really unexpected. I had to admire her.

But I didn't tell Guzheng too much. I was too uncomfortable, so I went back to my room to sleep. Guzheng stayed at home with me and took care of me. After I woke up in the evening, she went out to buy me dinner. The two of them had a meal at home. After a day's rest, I finally recovered.

I really thank Guzheng from the bottom of my heart. In comparison, I have done too little to her.

I offered to go out and relax. Guzheng didn't want me to go out, but he couldn't persuade me, so he covered me up and went out with me.

I don't know why I want to go out, but it's hard to stay at home all day.

It was still very cold, but not as cold as yesterday. The wind stopped and the snow stopped. Tonight, the round moon hung in the sky, reflecting the snow on the ground, and the white was even brighter.

Guzheng and I were walking on the road, but I didn't want to talk. I just wanted to walk quietly, breathing in the cool air, and not thinking about anything.

I was almost driven mad by my own thoughts, and I had to stop.

I already know each other. The only chance I have to atone for my sins is when the truth comes out. Although I don't know if Ding Ge and Guzheng will forgive me, it's still an opportunity. I definitely want to try.

Guzheng didn't seem troubled at all. She looked at me with a smile and then at the glistening snow. She said, "It's so beautiful. The whole world feels different when it snows."

I'm not in the mood to appreciate it.

Guzheng looked at me, pursed his lips and asked, "Xing Yun, are you unhappy?"

"No." I looked down at my feet and replied faintly.

"No, that's impossible. I've never seen you smile. Aren't you feeling particularly bad with me?"

"Of course not. I just don't want to talk." I sighed.

I really feel very tired. Now who is walking with me? Maybe I'm not in the mood to talk.

"Why?" Guzheng guessed, "Did you and Lin Ya fight?"

I looked at Guzheng in surprise. I didn't expect her to guess so accurately. Guzheng forced a bitter smile on her face, but she didn't say anything more. She just walked forward with some indifference, as if her mood had suddenly dropped.

I don't know how to comfort her when I see her like this.

After a while, Guzheng suddenly said, "Xing Yun, do you want to get back together with Ding Ge?"

"Ah?" I was shocked again. I didn't expect Guzheng to ask that.

"Before that, you were really close to each other. I think everyone will think that you will get back together, right? After all, you love each other so much that your feelings seem to be starting to rekindle, right? You want to get back together with Ding Ge?"

"Why did you say that all of a sudden?" I don't want to talk to Guzheng about this.

Guzheng did not ask again. She looked at me with a complicated light in her eyes. Her mood became especially low, which made me sad. It seemed that I had made her like this, but I really didn't know how to comfort Guzheng.

Guzheng's footsteps suddenly slowed down. She lowered her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking. After a while, Guzheng asked softly, "Is it selfish of me to do this?"

I looked at Guzheng and didn't answer her question.

"Do you hate me?" Guzheng bit his lip and asked me again.

"How could it be?"

I smiled faintly.

"Really?"

"Of course!" I only blame myself.

Guzheng didn't ask any more questions. Suddenly, I wasn't in the mood to take a walk, so I said to Guzheng, "Let's go back."

Guzheng nodded.

So we both went back together.

I lay in bed, thinking about tomorrow, I really should adjust my state, this time it was delayed for two days, nothing really can be delayed in the future, I can't pull the back leg of the restaurant!

So, the next day, I returned to my usual rest time, got up early, and dressed up in a smart manner. I wanted to put myself into work and not be distracted by anything else. Hu Zi wanted me to take a day off, but I really couldn't stay idle. If I did, I would be bored and sick.

In the morning, Hu Zi and I went to the market. It was almost the new year, and the price of vegetables began to rise. We didn't pay much attention to what we usually said. It was really expensive to buy a lot at once.

Back at the hotel, everyone seemed to be waiting for Hu Zi and me.

Jiang Yan was also in the front hall, with a strange face beside him.

I think this is probably the chef that Jiang Yan is going to introduce to us, Chen Qiang.

Sure enough, when Jiang Yan saw me and Hu Zi, they started introducing us separately, "These two are Xiaohu, the boss of our Xingyun hotel, Xing Yun, the manager of the hotel."

I smiled. In fact, the manager was just a nickname for me. Because the restaurant was named after me, sometimes people would jokingly call me the general manager, and sometimes they would say that I was the spokesperson of the restaurant.

Jiang Yan introduced the chef to us again, "This is my buddy, Chen Qiang. He was supposed to be here yesterday. He was snowed in Green city. Today, I brought him here."

Chen Qiang smiled at us and after saying hello, everyone sat down at a table.

Chen Qiang's skin was dark and he looked about forty years old, but his real age was less than forty, only a little more vicissitudes. He looked very loyal, but he had to have an interview to find out what kind of person he was.

In fact, it wasn't a serious interview. It was just a few people sitting together and chatting to get to know Chen Qiang's basic situation and character.

Jiang Yan gave us a brief introduction of the origin of the man, who was also a senior chef, longer than jiang yan's years as a chef.

Jiang Yan seemed to have great confidence in Chen Qiang and believed him very much. He kept saying good things to protect this man for us and said to us, "It's not because I'm friends with brother qiang that I said these things. Brother qiang is really capable, this!" Jiang Yan gave a thumbs up.

Chen Qiang only smiled modestly.

Jiang Yan added, "We've been dealing with each other for many years. Brother qiang is definitely above me. I won't lie to you. Moreover, he was very down-to-earth, and there was absolutely nothing to say about his work. But brother qiang is so old and has been a chef for so many years. He just doesn't have a chef's license. That's the only regret, but he's definitely not capable!"

Hu Zi asked Chen Qiang, "Why didn't you take one?"

"Well, to be honest, I'm not afraid of your jokes. My education level is low. I didn't even graduate from primary school. I went out to work with my family in the 14th and fifteenth, and then I learned from my master from the apprentice to the chef in the restaurant. I didn't have any formal training. I heard that I had to take this and that for a chef's certificate. It's too complicated. And I've been working in a small place all the time. I don't need it, so I never took the exam."

I don't care much about this. I care about two things. One is character, and the other is whether he has the real ability. Chen Qiang has so many years of experience, it should be no worse.

I couldn't help but think of Lin Ya, who told me the same thing when she invited me to start a business with her, that a certificate doesn't really mean anything.

That's what I thought in my heart. As long as Chen Qiang is really capable, I will definitely invite him.

After some interaction, I thought that Chen Qiang was a good person. He seemed honest, and I didn't know him, but I knew Jiang Yan. It shouldn't be wrong for Jiang Yan to recommend him so strongly.

Of course, maybe Jiang Yan was selfish and wanted to help his friends. But as long as Chen Qiang has the real ability, he can do it steadily.
