But when Li Xiaoqin heard the na Chu Tiange, she imdiately pouted: "Co on, Chu Tiange is an A-list star. Even our Hu Zi idolizes her. And calling her by a nickna like Chu Chu? Soone like that would never endorse a small noodle shop like ours."
Zhao Erdan also nodded: "Exactly, Huang Mao, you’re daydreaming. I heard that kind of celebrity charges an astronomical fee just for endorsents. Even if we sold everything we own, we couldn’t afford her."
Being called out by the two of them, Huang Mao awkwardly smiled: "Brother Zhao, sister-in-law, I’m just joking around. I know, people like us don’t even have the qualification to et Chu Tiange. Can’t I just have a little fun with my mouth?"
"If you’re going to talk big, at least say sothing believable." Li Xiaoqin couldn’t help but roast him as she looked up to see soone wrapped up tightly coming in.
The person had a good figure, but wore sunglasses and a mask, looking like a thief.
Li Xiaoqin quickly approached: "Are you here for noodles?"
"I..." The woman glanced nervously around the small noodle shop, pausing briefly on Ye Guichen before nodding hastily: "Yes, the Qiqiao Linglong noodles."
While speaking, the woman pointed to the dicinal noodles sign at the door.
Li Xiaoqin apologized: "Oh, we only sell ten bowls of that noodle each day, and they’re already sold out. Is there sothing else you’d like?"
"Sold out?" The woman looked disappointed: "Alright, then just a bowl of egg noodles."
Then she entered the noodle shop and found a corner to sit down.
Ye Guichen was pondering the future developnt of the dicinal Food Restaurant.
He realized that if he expanded the restaurant, not only could he solve many employnt problems, but he could also help people like Huang Mao turn their lives around.
Although a small dicinal food restaurant was nowhere near the level of an organization like the Heavenly God Temple, Ye Guichen found joy in it.
And interestingly, perhaps due to the ti spent interacting with ordinary people, Ye Guichen felt that the bottleneck he had been stuck at was showing signs of loosening.
In martial arts, Ye Guichen was indeed a genius, having reached heights in his twenties that others couldn’t achieve in a lifeti.
However, in recent years, he had made no significant progress and was stuck at the pinnacle of top-tier mastery, unable to break through the final barrier.
Strangely, since coming to Yun City, despite hardly training, his understanding of martial arts had deepened more than before.
"No wonder there’s a saying that true enlightennt cos from experiencing the world," Ye Guichen mused.
At this rate, he now needed just a trigger to step into a brand new realm.
"Old Zhao, sister-in-law, I have to go out for a bit." With that decision, Ye Guichen stood up and left the noodle shop.
The woman in the corner, who had just started eating, suddenly stood up and slapped a hundred yuan bill on the table: "Keep the change."
Then, she quickly followed Ye Guichen out.
This scene left Zhao Erdan and Huang Mao, who were chatting, dumbfounded.
"Hey, what’s going on?" Zhao Erdan looked puzzled: "That woman only took a few bites of her noodles, right?"
Li Xiaoqin was also curious: "Why do I feel like she’s here for Mr. Ye?"
"Could she be a secret admirer of Boss Ye?" Huang Mao suddenly got excited, "I’ll go check it out."
He then sneakily followed them out.
Ye Guichen had been deep in thought and didn’t notice he was being followed. But after walking a little way from the noodle shop, he felt soone behind him.
He frowned: "Another pest?"
Ye Guichen shook his head in resignation, turned around, and faced the woman following him: "What do you want?"
The woman was clearly surprised that Ye Guichen noticed her so quickly. She looked flustered but, after glancing around, realized there was nowhere to hide.
"Um, Mr. Ye, I didn’t an to..."
The mont she spoke, Ye Guichen recognized her voice—it was Chu Tiange.
"It’s you again?" Ye Guichen’s tone was unfriendly: "You were lucky to survive last ti. Aren’t you afraid of being ambushed?"
Chu Tiange quickly walked up to him, stopping a couple of steps away, looking flustered: "Mr. Ye, I... I don’t an any harm. I just..."
"Say what you want clearly."
"I want to treat you to dinner." Chu Tiange finally summoned the courage.
Ye Guichen was speechless.
Although he didn’t want to have too many dealings with Chu Tiange, she did provide free endorsent for the Chen Group. Having a al wasn’t a big deal.
"Alright, I haven’t had dinner yet. Let’s do it now," Ye Guichen nodded.
"Really?" Chu Tiange, like an excited child, nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I’ll book a place right now, we..."
She quickly took out her phone to make a call.
Ye Guichen pointed to a small restaurant not far away: "Let’s go there. It’s quiet, with few people, and you won’t be recognized."
Chu Tiange glanced in the direction Ye Guichen pointed. Seeing the nearly empty place, she felt a bit awkward: "Mr. Ye, I..."
"What, not used to it?"
"No, it’s not that. I’m afraid it will be too modest for you, Mr. Ye." Chu Tiange hurriedly waved her hand.
"It’s fine, I can eat anything." Ye Guichen said casually as he walked towards the unremarkable little restaurant.
Chu Tiange hesitated briefly, then quickly followed, not daring to walk alongside Ye Guichen.
Huang Mao followed not far behind, growing more curious.
"No way, could she really be a suitor of Boss Ye?" Huang Mao couldn’t help his curiosity and quickened his pace. But when he saw Ye Guichen and Chu Tiange enter the restaurant, and Chu Tiange remove her sunglasses and mask, he was stunned.
"No way, am I seeing things?" Huang Mao rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking he must be mistaken.
But upon a closer look, he was dumbstruck: "It’s really Chu Tiange? My god, it looks like the big star Chu Tiange is acting like a little follower in front of Boss Ye?"
Huang Mao felt his mind was blown.
They had just said they couldn’t afford soone like Chu Tiange. Yet here she was, inviting Ye Guichen to dinner, and Ye Guichen even seed reluctant.
Huang Mao took a few more glances, then hurried back to the Jixiang Noodle House.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Zhao, you won’t believe what I just saw!" Huang Mao exclaid the mont he entered the noodle shop.
Li Xiaoqin was speechless: "What, do you know the person who just left with Mr. Ye?"
"Sister-in-law, how did you guess?" Huang Mao was breathless with excitent: "Not only do I know her, but you both know her too."
"We know her too?" Now it was Li Xiaoqin and Zhao Erdan’s turn to be curious: "Huang Mao, who is it?"
