Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 696 Returning to the old place
"I'm sorry." Ma Youyou apologized.

"Forget it, I won't do it again next time. I'll calculate your salary for this month in a couple of days and pay it to you in advance."

"No need for the salary, boss. I can't take it with me anyway."

"I have to give it out, because I have a lot of money now, and it's also the result of your hard work. Even if you can't take it with you, you can spend it before you leave. Eat what you want, buy what you want, or travel abroad or something like that."

"I...I may not be able to go back yet." Ma Youyou said.

"I know. I'm just preparing in advance so that I won't be caught off guard. If everything is fine, you can leave now."

"Oh." Ma Youyou stood up.

Malu glanced at the time on his phone again and said, "Forget it, the restaurant is about to open, let's go in my car."

"it is good."

…………

Malu is actually not as calm as it seems. The Universe Infinite Canteen now has three regular waiters, who are He Xiaoqian, Ma Youyou and Sun Mei in chronological order.

If we include part-time workers, the number will be even higher, but the most irreplaceable among them is Ma Youyou, because she can go into the kitchen and deal with special guests in the evening.

If she left, Boss Ma would no longer be able to slack off every day, let alone take a vacation.

Malu always thought that he felt a little lost because of this reason.

But in fact, he now has plenty of star coins on hand, and there have been many space refugees coming to Earth recently. If he is willing, it is not completely impossible for him to find a successor.

If that’s the case, why does his heart still feel empty?

Malu has a relatively clear perception of most of the opposite sex around him. For example, when it comes to An Qi and Han Feifei, they are ambiguous between men and women. He and Shen Yue are just friends of bad people. He used to dislike Yu Yitong, but now his dislike is not so much.

Sure enough, success is the best antidote to regret.

This is getting off topic. He himself couldn't clearly explain what kind of feelings he had for Ma Youyou. If he had to say, the feeling when the two of them were together was probably... very natural.

It may sound strange to say this, Ma Youyou suddenly appeared one day, but the pace of the two was surprisingly consistent.

Sometimes when Malu wanted her to do something, he didn't need to give her detailed instructions, Ma Youyou would do it exactly as he wanted.

Since she appeared, Malu rarely worried about the daily operation of the restaurant, which really helped him a lot. Besides, Ma Youyou's salary was not high. Including miscellaneous bonuses, it was only about 13,000 or 14,000 yuan a month, which could be said to be very cost-effective.

But no matter what his position is, Malu certainly cannot stop Ma Youyou from going home. Not only can he not stop her, but he has to do his best to help her, as a bonus for her hard work in the store during this period.

Malu convinced himself in this way, although he still felt a little reluctant.

In the afternoon, he sent Ma Youyou and Lao Wang to the restaurant, but he did not stay at the cashier. He drove around and unknowingly came to the river where he went fishing last time.

It has been almost a week since he came here.

The existence of the Sea King bench completely deprived him of the fun of fishing, turning this activity that should have required skills and patience, and then a surprise, into a pure fitness activity. As a result, Malu didn't want to go fishing for the next few days, but today he was a little annoyed and needed some repetitive mechanical labor to clear his mind.

As soon as Malu parked the car, he was stared at.

As soon as he got off the car, those people immediately surrounded him.

"Master, you are finally here again. I was thinking this car looked familiar. Xiao Zheng, this is the master I told you about last week. He caught a black carp weighing over 15 jin and a silver carp weighing 21 jin here last time. He almost filled our buckets in less than 40 minutes."

"You are bragging, is this still a human being?"

Xiao Zheng was obviously a little skeptical. Although he had seen the photos of that day and the chat records in the group, he still preferred to believe in science.

It's not like he hasn't been to this river before. If he's lucky, he might catch a big fish, but catching big fish one after another and filling four or five buckets, what the hell is this science fiction?

Another old man wearing a straw hat also didn't believe it. "Tao'er, how come you are so addicted to making up lies? You've been saying it for a week and you're still saying it. I've been fishing for more than 30 years, and I've seen more fish caught by experts than you. If he's really as good as you say, I'll eat this bag of fish food!"

The old man also started to get serious and said with his neck stiff.

The man he called Taoer was actually in his forties. He was the middle-aged uncle who was wearing waders and greeted Malu first. His full name was Guo Zhengtao. He smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"Uncle Er, don't swear randomly. This guy is really a great god. He even shared the fish he caught with us last time. Lao Li, Lao Tie and Xiao Yu are all here. If you don't believe me, ask them."

"I don't need to ask, I can tell it's fake the moment I hear it!"

No matter what Guo Zhengtao said, his uncle just shook his head and said, "I have been fishing for 30 years. I can no longer tell the truth from the false!"

Malu ignored the arguments, found a place, put the bench there, and started purchasing goods using the lure rod he bought last time.

Xiao Zheng and Guo Zhengtao's second uncle were both very disdainful at first, but their expressions soon changed.

The millipede had been sitting there for less than half a minute when there was movement at the other end, so he started to reel in the line and caught a big carp weighing nearly four pounds.

It was not the first time that Guo Zhengtao, Xiao Yu and others had seen this scene, but they still couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"A master is a master. He doesn't even bother to dig holes. He just sits still and uses a lure rod and a fake bait to catch big fish."

Guo Zhengtao's second uncle was still stubborn, "Hehe, young people are lucky..."

Before he could finish his words, Malu picked up the fishing rod again. This time, less than 5 seconds had passed since he threw the line out. The speed at which he caught the fish really scared Xiao Zheng and Uncle Guo.

And this was just the beginning. Malu continued to catch fish one after another. Occasionally he would come up empty-handed because the hook had escaped halfway. Anyway, every time he cast the rod, he would definitely catch a fish within half a minute, and they were all quite big.

The largest one was a 30-pound catfish. The millipede played with it for a long time before it exhausted its strength and pulled it to the shore.

Everyone worked together to drag the catfish ashore. Just like before, Malu gave all the fish to the anglers by the river. This time he fished for an hour and five minutes in one go, which was a new record. He felt like his arms were not his own.

But the effect was also significant. At least when he was fishing, he no longer thought about Ma Youyou leaving.
