Chapter 823 (1/2)
Jiang Zongheng is about to pass his life. Song Xi came to the restaurant to order cake from Mai Zhe. Mai zhe has been here for a week. The customers all say that it is better than the former pastry makers. Many of them come here specially for dessert. The same thing may only sell for 34 yuan outside. Here is a triple digit jump. While Mai Zhe's income increases, it also has great benefits to the overall reputation of the restaurant.
Song Xi told Mai Zhe Jiang Zongheng's taste and preference. He took a notebook and wrote it down carefully. Song Xi said with a smile, ”please, wheat.”
Mai zhe replied with a smile, ”you're welcome. I'll be the one you're all satisfied with.”
After a few words of conversation, Mai zhe asked, ”is Mengmeng on duty today?”
Song Xi nodded in response: ”yes.”
Mai zhe said, ”then I'll just get off work at night and give her a midnight snack.”
Song Xi said: ”don't bother. She loses weight and doesn't eat at night. You're tired all day. Go back and have a rest early.”
Mai zhe said, ”I'm not tired either. I'll make a salad and send it to her. I can't do without eating. I'm so hungry that I'm in a bad mood.”
Song Xi didn't say much else. After chatting a few words, he came out of the operation room and went to the bar to find Diana.
Diana saw at a glance that Song Xi wanted to say nothing and asked, ”what's the matter?”
There was no outsider around. Song Xi sat on a high chair and said in a low voice, ”I think I'm selfish. When I see that wheat is good for damieng, I'm happy and unhappy.”
Diana understood Song Xi's mood, sighed and said: ”we are both the family of damengmengniang and dongxuniang. When they are together, we naturally have meat in the palm and the back of our hands, killing a litter of rotten ones, but it's not the same if outsiders join in.”
”In fact, in a strict sense, wheat and Mengmeng have known each other for a longer time than us. It's reasonable for them to have a good relationship. Besides, wheat is a good person. If he and Mengmeng can really get together, it's not necessarily a good thing... Ah, anyway, like you, I certainly hope that Mengmeng and Dongxu can be together, but falling in love is their own business, We are all outsiders. We can't manage it. ”
It's because Song Xi carries Qing that she feels powerless. She can't even call Gu Dongxu to urge him to get Da Mengmeng back quickly. After all, it's not easy for anyone to live in today's situation.
They were chatting with each other, only to hear a slightly immature male voice behind them say in American English: ”Mom, I want to eat their cake, chocolate, mango and Hazelnut Cream, all of them...”
Originally, Song Xi didn't look back until he heard a gentle female voice saying, ”back home, speak Chinese.”
It's only six words, light and floating, but Song Xi's whole body is like being struck by lightning. She doesn't dare to look back. Her body is stiff. The conversation behind her is still going on, getting closer and closer. First, the boy said in Chinese: ”Mom, hurry up, I'll be late for the movie soon.”
The woman said, ”you can only choose one.”
Every time she opens her mouth, Song Xi feels tense and powerless. Her body is tight, but her heart doesn't know how to place it. How many years has she not seen Lu Fangqi? For a long time, she thought that she had forgotten that person, but in fact, over the years, she overheard a voice very similar to Lu Fangqi several times. Yes, it's just similar. Every time when she couldn't control it, she was naked disappointed. This disappointment can last for a month or two, or even longer.
For at least five or six years, Song Xi had never heard a voice similar to Lu Fangqi's, so at first glance, she could not control her body's instinctive reaction.
She can control, just no longer silly look back, silly again let himself fall into the middle of the loss.
