I won 90 million, all I want to do is lie down and relax!

"Actually, I've wanted to go for a long time. The bond between my teacher and me is heavier than a mountain, and I must visit him."

Lu Zhaoyang replied without blushing or panting.

Oh, wait... he blushed!

Because of the alcohol.

"Yeah?"

"Absolutely true!"

"Teacher Liu misses you very much. Whenever I mention your name, Teacher Liu smiles so happily."

"Really?"

Looking at the message, Lu Zhaoyang almost thought he was seeing things because he had been drinking.

He didn't know that after so many years, Liu Guiying still remembered him.

This is simply unbelievable.

Back then, he was a bit rebellious at that age, and the worse he did in math, the more frustrated he became.

Liu Guiying is a national-level renowned teacher, which is extremely rare in the entire Yunzhao No.1 Middle School.

I did have several serious talks with him back then, but unfortunately, I couldn't change his tendency to excel in only one subject.

Many teachers felt sorry for him at the time.

Lu Zhaoyang was secretly repenting in his heart when he saw the message Xia Ran sent him, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Yes, Ms. Liu said you're the only student she's ever taught in all these years who fell asleep standing up in class. She said you're quite a contrast, like a unique splash of color in her glorious career, so she really wants to meet you."

Lu Zhaoyang then realized that he had been tricked by this little girl.

In the end, Zhao Yang naturally agreed.

After chatting for a few more minutes and agreeing on a time, Xia Ran took the initiative to end the chat.

Lu Zhaoyang put down his phone and saw Zhang Xiaoyi sitting diagonally across from him staring at him with a sly grin: "Brother Yang, secretly chatting with your girlfriend, huh? Look how happy you are!"

"When did I secretly chat?"

Lu Zhaoyang glared back.

He was holding his phone, chatting openly and honestly...

wrong!

"Where would I get a girlfriend?"

and many more!

"Am I smiling happily?"

After a series of corrective reactions, Lu Zhaoyang finally covered his head and shook it.

They must have drunk a bit too much.

He hadn't even realized that the corners of his mouth were indeed stretched a bit too wide.

Moreover, he found himself somewhat looking forward to it.

"Come on, cheers! Today, I really have to thank Yang Ge. This stewed chicken is absolutely delicious!"

Zhang Xiaoyi raised his glass and said loudly, "From now on, Brother Yang can start thinking about opening a restaurant. I've even thought of a name for you: Brother Yang's Stewed Chicken. The business will definitely be booming. I'll call everyone, whether we know each other or not, to come and support your business."

Lu Zhaoyang thought to himself, this is practically a prophecy.

Because he really intends to open a restaurant, and he has even bought the shops.

After only two light attempts, Lu Zhaoyang was able to make such a flavorful stewed chicken. Without anyone praising him, he began to doubt that he might actually have the talent of a genius chef.

Perhaps once the restaurant opens, he can introduce a signature dish.

Lu Zhaoyang found it increasingly amusing, thinking it might actually work.

The only problem is that he doesn't want to go to the restaurant kitchen every day.

Perhaps only two servings will be available per week, with a reservation system.

As the dinner party drew to a close, Lu Zhaoyang's phone rang. It was Li Jianxiang.

Lu Zhaoyang kept his promise. Since he had decided to cooperate, he unconditionally trusted Li Jianxiang and did not intend to interfere with the pace of his work.

However, Li Jianxiang also has his own principles.

Every single detail, no matter how small, is meticulously recorded.

Whenever it involves a large amount of expenditure, Li Jianxiang insists on confirming it with Lu Zhaoyang before proceeding.

Now that the shop is entering the preparation stage, it's a time when money is being spent everywhere.

This has led to the two meeting up much more frequently lately.

Li Jianxiang hurriedly said on the phone that he wanted to come over and discuss the plan with him, and Lu Zhaoyang naturally did not refuse.

Just then, they finished eating as well.

The event had just ended, and everyone had barely left when Li Jianxiang rushed over.

Before they could even exchange a word, he grabbed the tea that was already cold and hadn't been poured out yet and gulped it down.

"Brother Xiang, are you alright?"

In just a few days, Li Jianxiang not only had a scruffy beard, but his face also seemed noticeably thinner.

Lu Zhaoyang asked with concern.

"I'm fine."

Although Li Jianxiang looked tired, his eyes were definitely brighter than before.

"Here are some equipment quotes. I've compared prices, and this should be one of the best options. Zhaoyang, take a look."

Li Jianxiang handed over a densely packed price list.

Lu Zhaoyang took it and glanced at it casually. It listed various kinds of equipment such as steam ovens, refrigerators, and sterilizers.

"Brother Xiang, you're working way too hard right now. How can you keep going like this?"

Lu Zhaoyang was somewhat worried.

"Hey, opening a shop is like this for everyone. There's a lot to do in the early stages, so being busy is inevitable."

Li Jianxiang waved his hand dismissively, not taking it seriously at all.

"It's normal to be busy, but if you keep working non-stop like this, what will happen to you, Brother Xiang, if you get exhausted after the restaurant opens?"

Lu Zhaoyang placed the quotation on the table and said seriously, "Look, now you not only have to keep an eye on the renovation and urge the progress, but also run the paperwork, and then there's the procurement and customization of so much equipment. And that's not all, you also have to find suppliers, and after that, you have to taste the dishes, finalize the menu, and even more... there's also the recruitment of staff..."

Lu Zhaoyang counted on his fingers the things Li Jianxiang had to do, and his scalp tingled with anxiety.

"Brother Xiang, even if you were made of iron, you wouldn't push yourself this hard. This really won't do. What if you collapse before the shop even opens?"

Li Jianxiang chuckled sheepishly and scratched his messy hair: "But there's no other way, time is too tight. Otherwise, I don't know when we'd be finished, and the opening would be delayed for who knows how long."

"This really won't do, Brother Xiang."

Lu Zhaoyang shook his head. "I know there are some things you have to handle personally for me to feel at ease, but there are some things you can't do entirely by yourself and push yourself too hard."

He was willing to share some of the burden, but he realized that these were things he couldn't simply help with even if he wanted to.

He was a complete novice.

"I just hired an agency to handle the paperwork and other documents."

Li Jianxiang nodded and said, "I'm not familiar with many units in Yunzhao either. Running around like this would really waste time. I found an agency to handle it all, including the business license, operating permit, fire safety and environmental protection, for two thousand yuan."

"This is great!"

Lu Zhaoyang immediately nodded in agreement, "On that front..."

"I have to keep an eye on everything else; no one can do it for me."

"That's not necessarily true, Brother Xiang. You're right to oversee the renovations on the construction site, but you don't need to keep an eye on it all the time. I think it's better to find a trustworthy supervisor. You can just focus on guiding the work. By the way, you know my place is under renovation right now. The foreman is a really nice guy. How about asking him to keep an eye on it for me?"

Lu Zhaoyang's eyes lit up. "In terms of hotel layout and standards, he may not be as good as you, but in terms of on-site management and construction, he is a professional."

"this……"

Li Jianxiang hesitated.
