Rebirth 07: Starting with Saving a Bankrupt Restaurant

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyu wasn't interested, Zhou Wen didn't plan to try to persuade her any further.

They chose what they wanted to eat, and then sat back down in their seats.

Then they started chatting, and Jiang Zhiyu smiled from time to time, looking very relaxed.

Because there are quite a few people, the wait will take some time.

As they chatted, the barbecue was served one after another.

Zhou Wen ate a skewer and drank some milk tea at the same time, it couldn't be more pleasant.

Seeing Zhou Wen eating so heartily all by himself, Jiang Zhiyu was momentarily tempted to join him.

Although I wasn't really interested at first, the aroma of the barbecue was truly tempting once it was cooked.

Zhou Wen also noticed this, so he gave Jiang Zhiyu a way out: "Try these roasted chicken wings. I heard that eating them can beautify your skin."

Jiang Zhiyu didn't bother to dwell on this completely absurd claim, and nodded seriously, saying, "Really? Then I'll give it a try."

In this way, Jiang Zhiyu gradually got into the mood and began to feel the "atmosphere" that Zhou Wen had mentioned earlier.

Relax and enjoy yourself by the roadside, feeling the evening breeze, chatting, and eating barbecue.

……

"Zhou Wen, we're out of grilled pork belly. Could you go get a few more skewers?"

"And these grilled chicken wings, let's have a few more after we finish these."

Zhou Wen got up to add more dishes, shaking his head slightly as he did so. It seems that no one can escape the "law of deliciousness".

However, since Jiang Zhiyu had to drive, and drinking alone wouldn't be as enjoyable, the two ended up substituting milk tea for alcohol.

We can only wait for the next opportunity.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Zhiyu had a satisfied expression on her face.

After finishing their meal, the two didn't rush back. They were quite full, so they strolled slowly along the roadside.

After walking around, we returned to the original place.

After digesting most of it, it was time to go back to the hotel to rest.

When Zhou Wen saw the hotel, he knew that the overall price was not cheap.

Upon arriving at the lobby, you will complete the check-in procedures.

"Then I'll be going now."

Zhou Wen nodded: "Get some rest."

"Yes, you too."

When Zhou Wen opened the door, he couldn't help but sigh again, this was more luxurious than any hotel he had ever stayed in in his previous life.

For some reason, a shameful thought suddenly popped into Zhou Wen's mind: he wanted to cling to Jiang Fupo's coattails.

……

At night, Jiang Zhiyu, who was driving alone, suddenly chuckled for some reason, but quickly regained her composure.

However, her smile remained unchanged.

In fact, Jiang Zhiyu is under a lot of pressure. The pressure of running a restaurant in a first-tier city like Guangzhou is much greater than in other places.

Although the economy is developed, it also means greater competition, not to mention there are other very excellent competitors.

Especially in the first month, that was the most stressful time. I went to many places, but I couldn't find a single chef.

The turning point came when I met Zhou Wen during my trip to Quanzhou in July. After that, I went to Xiamen and visited several places, but I finally managed to meet someone.

The biggest gain, in fact, was getting to know Zhou Wen.

Today felt very different, especially the whole process of shopping for gifts together in the afternoon and then going to the food street together. I felt very relaxed.

I don't know why, but I feel very at ease when Zhou Wen is around.

Furthermore, this sense of security became more and more pronounced as Jiang Zhiyu and Zhou Wen grew closer.

Jiang Zhiyu unconsciously started humming a song, but of course no one is perfect. If Zhou Wen were here, he would definitely look embarrassed.

Jiang Zhiyu was clearly aware of her own abilities, so she stopped singing after only a few lines.

Today was truly interesting.

Finally, Jiang Zhiyu returned to her residence. Instead of washing up and resting, she took out her tablet from her bedroom and started tinkering with Tieba.

……

the next day.

Having finally come all the way to Guangzhou, I naturally had to experience the morning tea culture.

Early in the morning, Zhou Wen met up with Jiang Zhiyu and they went to a place for morning tea.

"I already registered those accounts you mentioned last night."

Zhou Wen nodded.

"Having too many new accounts isn't good either. You can nurture them properly first, or buy a few accounts."

"Otherwise, it will be easy for others to see through you," Zhou Wen reminded him.

"You can do that?"

Zhou Wen smiled to himself. He had been involved in the internet for many years and naturally knew a thing or two about it.

"Okay. I'll take care of it later."

"I'll call you if I have any problems after that."

Jiang Zhiyu wasn't asking Zhou Wen for his opinion; she was telling him about it.

Zhou Wen nodded: "If they don't answer the phone, they're probably busy. You can just leave a text message later."

"Don't worry, they won't call you while you're working," Jiang Zhiyu said, waving her hand up and down.

Zhou Wen nodded. Actually, it wasn't a big deal. He certainly wouldn't hear the phone when he was working anyway.

Then the two of them began to enjoy their morning tea.

"Should we come over again when it opens?" Jiang Zhiyu asked.

"We'll see when the time comes. If there's nothing urgent then, you can come over again," Zhou Wen said.

Dim sum is meant to be enjoyed slowly, so this meal took quite a while.

After eating, there wasn't much extra time to go sightseeing or wander around.

So the two of them stayed in the teahouse, ordered another pot of tea, and continued chatting.

When it was almost time, the two left the teahouse and got into the car. Jiang Zhiyu did not call a driver and personally drove Zhou Wen away.

I personally picked them up when they arrived and personally took them to the airport when they left.

Before leaving, Jiang Zhiyu took a bag from the trunk and handed it to Zhou Wen.

"These are some local specialties. I noticed yesterday that you didn't buy everything, so I added some more for you."

Zhou Wen did not refuse and took it without hesitation.

Thank you.

"Be careful," Jiang Zhiyu said.

Zhou Wen nodded and said, "You too."

Finally, Zhou Wen waved goodbye as a farewell, then turned and walked into the airport.

Jiang Zhiyu didn't look away until Zhou Wen's figure disappeared from sight, and then she started the car and left.

……

……

It was still a nearly three-hour drive, and Zhou Wen arrived home around 2 p.m.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief. Although I didn't accomplish anything on this trip to Guangzhou, it was certainly not an easy one.
