Chapter 348: Lucky Opening
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Guo Miao took out her phone and opened the familiar dialog box.
It was only then that she realized that the two of them had not spoken since the day they had been on the phone all night.
It was probably because the question that day had been too awkward.
Guo Miao also regretted not answering that question properly.
She looked at the empty dialog box and sighed softly. She typed a message in the dialog box: “Thank you for the flowers.”
Soon, the other side showed that he was typing.
[It’s a great opening. You’ve worked hard today.]
He seemed a little formal. Guo Miao turned off her phone and didn’t want to think about the question anymore.
She actually missed Tong Pei a little, but when she thought of him, she felt a little awkward.
She couldn’t tell where this awkwardness came from. Perhaps it was because she didn’t know how to get along with the other party after recognizing her feelings.
Guo Miao sighed and looked at the flower stand that was emitting a warm fragrance.
In an instant, she missed him.
Perhaps she would be able to see Tong Pei more often when she went to the capital.
As she thought about this, she stared at the flowers in a daze.
At this moment, a group of people walked in. “We’re here to support you, Miao Miao!”
The person in the lead was Zhong Nian. Behind him were the students from Class 10 of Grade 1. Tong Yao and Chen Si had also arrived.
Zhong Nian placed a gift box in front of Guo Miao. “This is Zhong Weige’s opening gift for you.”
Guo Miao was still in a daze, but she came to her senses when she saw Zhong Nian and the others.
“I was going to give you flowers, but Uncle said that he had already given it to you, so this is my gift.” Zhong Nian opened the box, and everyone gathered around him.
There was a god of fortune inside.
Everyone laughed out loud when they saw this.
Nowadays, there were very few shops that would display the God of Fortune in their shops. The belief that prayer could earn money was a little superstitious.
Zhong Nian was a bit embarrassed. “My cousin likes this. He prays to the gods, especially Buddha, for good luck. Miao Miao, please accept it.”
Guo Miao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but she still accepted the strange-looking gift.
Tong Yao also handed Guo Miao a bag. “This is a gift from Fifth Uncle. It’s not convenient for him to e over today, so he asked me to pass it to you.”
Guo Miao opened the box and was stunned.
There were two things in the box. One was a ceramic lucky cat. It seemed to be handmade. It wasn’t that exquisite, but it looked extremely cute.
There was also a necklace. The pendant on the necklace was in the shape of a eucalyptus. Guo Miao was stunned for a moment when she saw the necklace.
“Miao Miao? Wake up!” Tong Yao patted Guo Miao’s shoulder. Guo Miao finally reacted and quickly said, “Thank you, Fifth Uncle.”
“It’s fine. It’s useless for you to talk to me about it. You can talk to my Fifth Uncle personally,” Tong Yao said with a smile.
Tong Yao had noticed Guo Miao’s momentary daze.
For some reason, he had a feeling that Guo Miao liked Tong Pei.
He felt that his idea was a little ridiculous, but Guo Miao had been stunned twice just now. One time was because of the necklace, and the other time was because of the eucalyptus in the flower stand.
He remembered that his Fifth Uncle had always liked eucalyptus. From the fragrance to the perfume he used, it was always the smell of eucalyptus.
Guo Miao also seemed to like eucalyptus.
If it wasn’t a coincidence, she probably liked Fifth Uncle. Tong Yao felt that he had discovered something amazing.
Guo Miao wore the necklace around her neck. The necklace also seemed to have a fragrance that enveloped her.
Everyone chatted for a while. It was almost eleven o’clock. There were already a lot of people waiting outside. Although Guo Hua and the others also helped, everyone was still busy.
The entire restaurant was filled to the brim. It was not until two o’clock in the afternoon that they sent off the last wave of customers.
The business hours at night were seven o’clock, but everyone was busy until eleven o’clock.
It was already 11:30 p.m. by the time they finished cleaning up, settling the bill, and replenishing the ingredients.
Guo Fu made a pot of steaming chicken porridge and some seafood. Although everyone was tired, they were all in high spirits.
“Our net profit today is close to 50,000!” Lu Yang looked at the account book and felt a little gratified.
“I didn’t expect our business to be so good.” Guo Fu was a little relieved.
Guo Miao nodded. “I just looked at the reviews on the shop search app. It’s not bad..”
