After writing, hang it up.
The entire room fell silent for a second.
Followed by.
"boom!!!"
The cheers that erupted were enough to shatter all the windows on the entire Golden Street!
"Holy crap! It doubled?! Am I seeing things? It actually doubled!"
"Awesome! Boss Lin is so generous!!"
"Haha! We can finally eat today!"
Among the crowd, Qin Lang and Shen Man, two privileged individuals who didn't have to wait in line, were standing to the side wearing sunglasses, watching the spectacle.
However, Shen Man's condition was clearly not right today.
Although she was still wearing an expensive Chanel outfit and carrying a Hermès bag, she leaned against a lamppost, looking somewhat listless.
Those huge sunglasses covered almost half of his face, but they still couldn't hide the weariness seeping through the edges of the lenses.
"Oh, Miss Shen, what's wrong?"
Qin Lang twirled his car keys in his hand, turned his head, and leaned closer with a sly grin, looking her up and down.
"The shop was so busy yesterday that I was practically running around like crazy. I worked diligently carrying plates all day long, and my back is killing me. And you, on the other hand, just disappeared without a trace."
As he spoke, Qin Lang reached out a finger and playfully hooked Shen Man's sunglasses arm, pulling it down:
"Wow! Goodness!"
Under the sunglasses, Shen Man's originally exquisite eye makeup could not hide her two heavy dark circles, and her eyes looked unfocused as if she hadn't slept all night.
"What's wrong? I, the laborer, haven't even collapsed yet, and you, the absentee, are already wilting?"
Qin Lang teased gleefully, "Look at your face full of resentment and those pristine dark circles... What's wrong? Did you go thieving last night? Or did you try to steal some random guy's heart and get rejected?"
"Qin Lang, can you please shut your dog mouth?"
Shen Man snatched back her sunglasses with a huff and put them back on, her voice hoarse and filled with a deep sense of helplessness:
"I'd rather be a thief, or even just lay bricks—that would be better than what happened yesterday!"
She sighed deeply, rubbed her throbbing temples, and her voice was filled with despair:
"I was kidnapped by my dad and mom yesterday."
"Kidnapping?" Qin Lang was taken aback. "Do you want a ransom? I have one!"
"Get lost!" Shen Man rolled her eyes. "It's a blind date!"
"Pfft—" Qin Lang couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"No way? Our beautiful Shen needs to go on blind dates? Who's so unlucky... oh no, so lucky?"
"Don't even mention it. He's supposed to be a financial tycoon who just came back from Wall Street, but to me he's just a scheming oddball!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Man instantly perked up and poured out her grievances to Qin Lang:
"Do you know what I ate for dinner yesterday?"
"We were at a French restaurant, and the man who came in didn't even ask what I wanted to eat. He just pulled out a form and started analyzing the recent international gold price trends and the yield on my family trust!"
"That's not all. When the food arrived, he actually weighed the steak on a small scale and then told me something like, 'Ms. Shen, based on your height and weight, this piece of meat is too high in calories. I suggest you only eat one-third of it...'"
Shen Man mimicked the man's tone, trembling with anger:
"I wanted to smash that plate of snails in his face! I came out to eat to have fun, not to listen to his finance and nutrition lectures!"
"And then? And then?" Qin Lang listened with great interest; this was much more exciting than a TV drama.
"Then I ran away! But my parents forced me to talk to him until 10 pm! They even made me add him on WeChat!"
Shen Man looked utterly dejected and pointed to her dark circles:
"That weirdo stayed up all night and sent me more than twenty voice messages, all of them advice on how to optimize the family's asset allocation."
"He even said that if we were to get married, the prenuptial agreement would have to be eighty pages long... I listened to him all night, and I feel like my brain has been turned to mush!"
At this point, Shen Man turned her head and looked at the still-closed roller shutter door of "Lin Family Shop," a hint of longing in her eyes—a yearning for a normal human life.
"Qin Lang, you have no idea how much I missed Lin Fan at that moment."
"I miss his steamed buns, I miss that bowl of hot beef brisket noodles, and I even miss his face—though it was cold, at least he didn't talk nonsense!"
"Compared to that Wall Street elite who talks all about big data, Lin Fan, a man who just quietly cooks and serves you the best food, is practically an angel on earth!"
After listening, Qin Lang patted Shen Man's shoulder sympathetically and said, suppressing a laugh:
"It's terrible, truly terrible. It seems I don't fully understand the troubles of the rich."
"But don't despair too much, look, the 'angel' has arrived."
Qin Lang pointed to Lin Fan in the distance.
"This meal is on you, bro! Let's channel our grief into food, eat Lin Fan out of house and home, and soothe your wounded soul!"
Shen Man took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and gritted her teeth, saying:
"No need for you to treat me! Today I'm going to eat three big bowls! I'm going to make up for all the calories I missed yesterday!"
……
The two chatted as they swaggered into the shop, found their usual spot, and sat down. Their relaxed demeanor, as if they were at home, made many diners still basking in the sun outside extremely envious.
"Brother Lin! Same as always! Noodles, steamed buns, and plum juice! The whole set!" Qin Lang shouted, then pointed to Shen Man across from him.
"Give this lady an egg! She was injured at work yesterday, she needs something nourishing!"
"Get lost!" Shen Man glared at him, but when she turned to look at Lin Fan, her eyes softened considerably, even carrying a hint of grievance.
"Lin Fan, hurry up and serve the food, I'm starving!"
"Hold on."
Lin Fan stood in the kitchen. Although he didn't know what gossip the two had been talking about, seeing Shen Man's exhausted appearance, he couldn't help but speed up his work.
He cut the noodles and threw them into the pot.
Take out the wrapped buns and put them into the steamer.
His movements were fluid and graceful, even more elegant and composed than before.
A few minutes later.
Steaming hot noodles and buns were served.
Looking at the bowl of red and white beef brisket noodles in front of her, which smelled delicious, Shen Man's eyes actually felt a little hot.
There was no preaching, no calculation, and no cold, hard data.
Only real meat and heartwarming soup.
"Indeed, this is still the most human place to be."
She sighed, picked up her chopsticks, and eagerly grabbed a mouthful of noodles.
