Life in siheyuan era

#222 - Chapter 222: Get Ready

Han Xue was very angry, but she still opened the watch box in front of her, took out the watch to look at it, and said lightly, "LLS, about a thousand yuan?"

"Knowledgeable," Zhou Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Han Xue still said lightly, "What would you do if I didn't accept it?"

"I'll jump off the WH Bridge into the Yangtze River."

Hearing his answer, Han Xue replied coldly, "Your heart is so black that even jumping into the Yangtze River won't wash it clean."

Zhou Zhiyuan chuckled softly, then replied softly, "I specially washed this heart red before coming."

He made a joke, Han Xue glared at him, and said coldly, "Is that how you coax Shen Lanyin?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Lanyin must be coaxed, I owe her. What's strange is that I feel like I owe you too, so I have to coax you too."

At this moment, he spoke his mind.

Han Xue glanced at him, her eyes filled with complex emotions, and slowly said, "You do owe me."

Then, looking at the watch, she said softly, "I don't want this watch. The ring Shen Lanyin was wearing last night was very beautiful. Buy me one of the same style."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhiyuan's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Lanyin's ring only cost more than six hundred yuan, which is not as expensive as this watch, and discipline doesn't allow you to wear a ring either."

Zhou Zhiyuan absolutely dared not buy her a ring.

Han Xue glanced at him coldly, and said coldly, "I just like that ring. I can't wear it to work, but can't I wear it at home?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "The nature is different."

Seeing his expression, Han Xue suddenly changed the subject, "What will Yushui do if she knows you bought me this watch?"

Zhou Zhiyuan replied in astonishment, "Why should she care about what I want? I don't owe her anything. Besides, she has made up a lot of women for me outside, and I haven't settled the score with her yet. You should talk to her when you have time, and don't talk nonsense outside. Besides Lanyin, I don't have any other women."

Han Xue's mention of He Yushui reminded Zhou Zhiyuan of what Sha Zhu said. Last time He Yushui came to him, she left quickly before he could say anything about it. Afterwards, they didn't see each other for many days. This was a sign that she was afraid he would settle the score later.

He couldn't find He Yushui, so he asked Han Xue to come forward.

Han Xue didn't want to do this, and asked lightly, "Yu Li often comes to you, what does she want?"

"What can she do..." Zhou Zhiyuan sighed, "Her heart is only filled with money. She is single-mindedly trying to dig out a way to get rich overnight from me. She doesn't even think about it. If I had a way to get rich overnight, would I tell her?"

"And when she saw that I was running a restaurant, she also opened one herself, and asked me to give her ideas. I told her to hire He Yuzhu as the chef. She did a good job, but she fired He Yuzhu, and then when the restaurant failed, she came to me again."

"Some time ago, I was avoiding her. Yesterday, I came up with a good idea. I'm going to invest in opening a restaurant. I'll take the majority stake, and Yu Li and He Yuzhu will each take a certain share. Yu Li will be responsible for front-desk management, and He Yuzhu will be responsible for the back kitchen. This way, everyone gets what they need."

Hearing him say this, Han Xue asked in surprise, "He Yuzhu's cooking skills are good, why doesn't he work for you?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Comrade He Yuzhu has the body of a chef but the heart of a big brother. He can't be a big brother if he goes to my place, so he definitely won't go."

Zhou Zhiyuan stated the reason, and was about to turn the topic to He Yushui when Han Xue suddenly said, "I want that ring."

Zhou Zhiyuan replied casually, "If you buy it, the consequences..."

He paused at this point, with a wry smile on his face.

Han Xue stretched out her left arm and said softly, "Put it on for me."

Zhou Zhiyuan got up and put the watch on her slender wrist with a wry smile, listening to her softly ask, "Who is Prince Rui?"

Han Xue asked this question, and seeing Zhou Zhiyuan blink in surprise, she chuckled and said, "With my identity, I can see this confidential file. You were missing for more than three years, and there is a high probability that you were taken away by Prince Rui."

"And the memories of that time were erased, but your physical fitness has greatly improved. More than ten years have passed without any signs of aging. It can be seen that Prince Rui is really good to you."

Han Xue also believed it, and said softly, "You're right, so you haven't aged at all over the years, and Shen Lanyin hasn't aged either. This can't help but make people think of a term, 'Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation'."

Hearing this term, Zhou Zhiyuan's face changed, but Han Xue continued, "I can think of it, and Shen Lanyin must be able to think of it too, so she will regard Prince Rui as the first target of defense."

"I think so, and Shen Lanyin may think so too. Prince Rui may be in seclusion at this time, and he may come out of seclusion to find you at any time, so..." Saying this, Han Xue chuckled and stopped speaking.

Zhou Zhiyuan sighed, "Don't read Xianxia novels in the future, that stuff really affects your thinking."

"Yes, it really affects your thinking," Han Xue actually admitted.

Zhou Zhiyuan looked at her, seeing her happy smile, blinked inexplicably, and then changed the subject, "Let's talk about something serious. Ran Qiuyue's cousin is actually her ex-boyfriend, named Huang Zhi, who wants to join hands with me to open an electrical appliance store, which is actually smuggling."

"I agreed, but I don't want to waste time with him. I'm offering 100,000 G coins to make him want to run away. I'll leave the matter of catching him to you. I'm very busy these days and don't have time to track him down."

Hearing him mention this, Han Xue's face darkened, and she said coldly, "It's not that you don't have time, but that Shen Lanyin is keeping a close eye on you, right? I don't care."

Seeing her attitude, Zhou Zhiyuan hurriedly said, "You turn your face faster than flipping a book. This is serious business."

Han Xue solemnly told him, "We are the anti-espionage department."

Zhou Zhiyuan explained to her, "This is where the loophole lies. Since the reform and opening up, even flies and mosquitoes have flown in, and those dormant rats and cockroaches have also come out of their holes. Public security has seriously deteriorated, and the public security side is short-handed and has no time to deal with scammers."

"And the other party is a foreigner, and the public security side is timid. You are different. Maybe you can catch a few spies from him, at least don't let me lose 100,000 G coins. Isn't this also escorting economic construction?"

Zhou Zhiyuan said a lot of sense, and Han Xue said coldly, "You have money, you don't care about this little loss."

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled, got up and walked out, saying as he walked, "I'll pick up Xiaojing this afternoon after she finishes the exam, and take her to a hotel for a good meal tonight. She's been exhausted these days."

As he spoke, Zhou Zhiyuan walked out of the room, and Han Xue pondered for a while and dialed a phone number.

Han Xue said she didn't care, but Zhou Zhiyuan knew in his heart that Han Xue wouldn't ignore his affairs. Their friendship was there.

But thinking of their friendship, he had a headache. So, he turned his thoughts to Ran Qiuyue. To make her change her mind, he could be said to have racked his brains this time, even throwing out 100,000 G coins to make Huang Zhi appear, and also to partner with Yu Li and Sha Zhu to open a restaurant.

When Sha Zhu becomes the boss, Ran Qiuyue will have to consider it. This idea is very good. When he said this idea, Sha Zhu agreed without hesitation.

As for Yu Li, Zhou Zhiyuan also wanted to push her a little.

Yu Li has also worked hard these years, single-mindedly wanting Yan Xiaocheng to become his apprentice.

But the child's academic performance has not improved, failing to meet his rigid indicators, and this alone excluded him from Zhou Zhiyuan's consideration.

Then Yu Li played the emotional card with him, using the relationship of neighbor plus sister and brother, plus the relationship with Guo Yanhong, to firmly rely on him.

And this time the restaurant failed, Yu Li looked for him for a week but he avoided her. Today at noon he didn't want to avoid her anymore. He was eating his lunch box with Lao Nie when he saw Yu Li come in and smiled, "Get Sister Yu a portion."

"I can't eat it," Yu Li said, looking at Lao Nie.

Lao Nie understood her meaning and said, "You guys chat," and walked to his office with his lunch box.

Seeing Lao Nie go out, Yu Li immediately closed the door, sat in Lao Nie's seat, and looked at Zhou Zhiyuan angrily.

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I didn't offend Sister Yu."

Yu Li said angrily, "I came to you seven times, and even asked Yanhong to pass on a message to you, but you didn't answer the phone and didn't see anyone. What do you mean?"

"Wasn't it because I had no choice at that time? What would I say if we met?"

Hearing him say this, Yu Li's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked softly, "Do you have a plan now?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I have an idea. You, me, and He Yuzhu will invest together to open a restaurant. The investment ratio will be three, one, thirty-one. You will be responsible for front-desk management, He Yuzhu will be responsible for back-kitchen management, and I will only be responsible for profit sharing."

Hearing him say the plan, Yu Li immediately said, "I don't have money."

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I thought of this. He Yuzhu and I will partner, and you will be the front-desk manager and earn a salary."

Hearing this plan, Yu Li immediately said, "This won't work. If Sha Zhu invests, he will be the second boss, and you won't be in charge. Aren't I working for Sha Zhu?"

This plan was also rejected by Yu Li. A look of embarrassment appeared on Zhou Zhiyuan's face. After pondering for a while, he said solemnly, "The last plan, I will take 50%, and you and He Yuzhu will each take 25%."

This was his final plan, and Yu Li thought for a moment and said softly, "Wouldn't it be better if you took 80% and I took 20%?"

Hearing this plan, Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and replied slowly, "Sister Yu, He Yuzhu would have come to work for me long ago if they were willing to."

He said the key point, and Yu Li immediately said, "I know Sha Zhu's urge to be the boss, and I also know that you have three chefs. Wouldn't it be enough to transfer one chef over?"

Yu Li knew something about the inside story of the Sunshine Hotel. Zhou Zhiyuan decided to have a good talk with Zhang Yong. If Guo Yanhong's mouth was so leaky, he wouldn't take Guo Yanhong with him after the joint venture hotel was built. Zhang Yong couldn't blame him.
