Bringing my kids to set up stalls, I made thousands of people cry with envy

Chapter 542 Can't you be a decent human being...?

Although the video footage was only two seconds long, the clear face made Lu Ziyi's eyes widen instantly.

Lu Ziyi felt as if she had been suddenly struck from behind with a thousand-year-old killing blow; she jolted awake and jumped off the bed.

"Holy crap!! It's Master Su!"

Lu Ziyi screamed and frantically rewound the video by two seconds, then paused it and quickly zoomed in.

This time, she saw it clearly; that familiar face was indeed Su Chen himself.

At that moment, Lu Ziyi felt as if she had won the lottery, radiating happiness from head to toe.

"Damn it, why did they give up their perfectly good job of cooking at people's homes and go to set up a street stall instead!"

Lu Ziyi couldn't help but complain.

But as soon as she said it, she remembered that when Master Su came to cook for her that day, he had indeed mentioned that he came from a street stall background.

At the time, she thought it was just a joke from Master Su and didn't take it to heart at all, but she never expected it to be true.

Lu Ziyi glanced at the video's location again, a glint of excitement flashing in her eyes, and without hesitation, quickly called Xiao Lei.

The phone rang for several seconds, and just as Lu Ziyi was getting impatient and was about to hang up, the call was suddenly answered.

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Lei said in a low voice, "What's up? I'm in a meeting."

Before Xiao Lei could even finish speaking, Lu Ziyi screamed into the phone like a madwoman, "Xiao Lei, I found Master Su!!!"

"What?! What did you say?!"

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Lei's voice suddenly rose.

The next second, Lu Ziyi heard some noisy, unfamiliar voices coming from the other end of the phone.

"What's going on? Why did you suddenly yell like that!"

"What happened!"

Lu Ziyi then belatedly realized that she seemed to have inadvertently tricked her best friend.

However, before she could even feel guilty, she heard Xiao Lei's voice on the other end of the phone.

"Boss! My neighbor called and said there's smoke coming from under my door, it looks like some appliance is on fire!"

"I have to go home and check! It would be a real problem if there was a fire!"

There was another commotion on the other end of the phone, with all sorts of sounds mixed together.

Lu Ziyi strained her ears and clearly heard things like, "Then you should hurry back," and "Is it too late? Do you want me to drive you?"

Goodness, I had barely uttered the name "Master Su" and hadn't even had a chance to say anything else when this guy's quick thinking was incredible. He instantly came up with an excuse to skip work.

After a moment, the other end of the phone finally quieted down, and Xiao Lei's voice came through: "Where is Master Su? How did you know?!"

"I just came across a video, let me send it to you."

As Lu Ziyi spoke, she quickly forwarded the video to Xiao Lei.

One minute later.

Xiao Lei sent a few short, urgent words.

"Let's head to the flower and bird market now, immediately!"

……

Over here, Su Chen carefully packed up the last chicken and sweet potato steamed bun and a duck breast rice ball, then called out to the diners behind him with a slightly apologetic tone.

"Sorry everyone, today's steamed buns and rice balls are all sold out."

"Huh? Isn't it?"

"What I fear most now is hearing 'I'm sorry' or 'excuse me' from Boss Su's mouth. It's scarier than my mom calling me by my full name!" "I'm speechless. I couldn't buy Boss Su's food for humans, and now I can't even buy his dog food!"

"Boss Su, please make a little more tomorrow!"

The regular customers who couldn't buy any started to whine and complain, staring longingly at Su Chen, wishing he could conjure up hundreds more steamed buns on the spot.

"Uh, today is the last day of business this week."

Seeing the unsatisfied looks in the eyes of his regular customers, Su Chen had no choice but to bite the bullet and announce the official end of business for the week.

Those few regular customers who managed to buy some at the last minute, who had been all smiles and secretly rejoicing, suddenly lost their smiles when they heard Su Chen say that the restaurant would be closed tomorrow.

The old customer who had just been saying he was most afraid of Su Chen saying "sorry" quickly changed his tune.

"I was wrong. What I was most afraid of was that Boss Su would say that the store would be closed tomorrow."

"Isn't today only Thursday?"

"Boss Su, can't you be a decent human being? Why are you taking three more days off again!"

"Boss Su, how am I supposed to live without you!"

"Boss Su, look at my dog's pitiful eyes, how can you bear not to come tomorrow?"

A group of people were crying and shouting, creating a chaotic scene. People who didn't know the situation looked over from a distance and thought something major had happened.

Su Chen felt his scalp tingle from being called out by the regular diners.

But I still had to rush to the police station to give Shunfeng a massage and care, and also deliver the steamed buns and rice balls that I had reserved for the police officers in advance.

So, while calming the regular customers down, he quickly and efficiently packed up the food cart.

"Alright, everyone go home and rest early."

After finally calming everyone down, Su Chen got on the food cart and headed towards the police station.

……

No sooner had Su Chen left than Lu Ziyi and Xiao Lei rushed to the location by taxi.

As soon as they got out of the car, the two ran towards the location shown in the video.

However, when they arrived, the spot where the food truck had been in the video was now empty, with only a bare ground remaining.

"Wait a minute, this is the spot in the video! I'm not looking in the wrong place!"

Lu Ziyi pulled out the video on her phone and carefully compared it several times, from the surrounding buildings to the ground markings.

Yes, this is it!

Xiao Lei also looked around, trying to find Su Chen in the crowd.

Some regular customers hadn't left yet. Seeing Lu Ziyi and Xiao Lei anxiously searching around, looking bewildered and worried, they kindly asked them a question.

"You two aren't looking for Boss Su, are you?"

"Yes, yes! That's right!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ziyi nodded repeatedly as if she had met a savior, and eagerly asked, "He is indeed looking for a Master Su who sets up a stall here. Do you know where he went?"

"Oh, then don't bother looking anymore, Mr. Su has sold out and left." The regular customer sighed helplessly upon seeing this.

"They're all sold out and they've left?!"

Lu Ziyi almost burst into tears when she heard the news.
I've already rushed as fast as I can, so why did I still miss it?

Xiao Lei, on the other hand, had a better attitude. Although she was also a little disappointed, she cheered herself up and comforted him, "It's okay. Now that we've found Master Su, we can come back tomorrow."
