Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Boss, Do You Do Rural Banquets?

The two of them started drinking and eating the crayfish and fish.

But the more they drank, the more Li You realized that Ye Shengge’s tolerance for alcohol must be quite high.

This was something he had never expected.

’A miscalculation.’

But since it had come to this, he had no choice but to keep drinking with her.

Slowly, they finished their first bowl of alcohol.

Li You was already a bit dizzy. But Ye Shengge seemed completely unaffected.

Ye Shengge smiled faintly. ”Boss, you can’t seem to hold your liquor!”

’At least she’s only saying I can’t hold my liquor.’

Li You didn’t deny it. ”I didn’t expect you to have such a high tolerance. Do you drink often?”

Ye Shengge shook her head. ”Not really. I just drink occasionally.”

”You only drink occasionally, and your tolerance is this good?”

”Maybe I was born with it. I find it strange myself, actually.”

”Alright.”

Li You didn’t doubt her. Some people really are just born with a high tolerance for alcohol.

”So, are you going to drink more?” Ye Shengge asked.

After hesitating for a moment, Li You nodded. ”Yes. I’ll have a little more with you.”

Ye Shengge said, ”Okay. Then let’s each have another half bowl.”

Li You said, ”We can do a whole bowl each. Let’s have another full bowl. I’m fine.”

Ye Shengge looked at Li You, smiled again, and said, ”Alright. Another bowl it is. I’ll go get the alcohol.”

Li You said, ”No need. I’ll just have Da Bai bring it up.”

”That works too.”

Soon, Da Bai came up carrying two bowls of alcohol.

And so, the two of them slowly finished this bowl of alcohol as well.

It was already ten o’clock at night.

Li You was getting seriously dizzy.

But it was fine. He was just dizzy, not drunk.

And Ye Shengge was still completely fine.

’People who are naturally good drinkers are just incredible.’

At that moment, Ye Shengge said, ”Boss, you should rest a bit. I’m going to my car to get my toiletries and clothes.”

Li You said, ”Have Da Bai and Xiaohai go with you.”

”Okay.”

After saying that, Ye Shengge got up and went downstairs.

Li You continued watching TV.

A short while later, Ye Shengge returned, carrying a suitcase.

After putting the suitcase in her room, she came back and sat down next to Li You.

There was still a little bit of crayfish left.

The two of them continued to watch TV while slowly finishing off all the crayfish.

It was almost 11 PM.

Li You felt much better by now and wasn’t so dizzy anymore.

’Good alcohol really does help you sober up faster.’

”Do you want to take a shower?” Li You asked Ye Shengge.

Ye Shengge hummed in agreement.

Li You nodded. ”You go first, then. Get some sleep after you’re done.”

”Okay.”

Ye Shengge walked towards her room.

After taking two steps, she turned back and said, ”Oh, right, let me pay you for tonight’s food. It was 460 in total, right?”

”You don’t need to pay me for that.”

”No. I said I was treating you, so I’m treating you... There, I’ve already transferred it. Go ahead and accept it.”

”Alright then. Thanks.”

”You’re too polite, Boss.”

Then, Ye Shengge walked into her room.

After cleaning up the area, Li You went back to watching TV.

He planned to take a shower after Ye Shengge was finished with hers.

Soon, Ye Shengge came out of her room in a white bathrobe and went straight to the bathroom.

Li You saw Ye Shengge’s figure entering the bathroom out of the corner of his eye.

Even the bathrobe couldn’t hide her tall and perfect figure.

’Renting a room to Ye Shengge was definitely the right decision.’

’I wonder if anyone else wants to rent a room?’

’There are still three empty rooms, after all.’

Li You mulled over the question.

After some time, the bathroom door opened. Ye Shengge walked out, still wearing the white bathrobe, her hair damp.

”Boss, I’m done. Are you going to wash up?” Ye Shengge asked, running a hand through her hair.

Li You nodded. ”I am. You should get some rest.”

”Okay. See you tomorrow, then.”

”See you tomorrow.”

After changing into his pajamas and entering the bathroom, Li You felt that it smelled much more fragrant than usual.

’It seems a lot of things change when you have a girl living in the house.’

...

「The next day.」

「8:00 AM.」

Li You got up, walked out of his room, and looked at the door to Ye Shengge’s room.

It was closed.

’She’s probably not up yet.’

’I’ll let her sleep in.’

After washing up, he went downstairs and exchanged ”Good morning” with Da Bai and Xiaohai.

He opened the shop’s door, officially starting a new day of business.

About half an hour later, Ye Shengge came downstairs.

Today she wore a pair of relatively loose jeans, but you could still tell she had an excellent figure.

’She looks great!’

”Morning, Boss! Morning, Da Bai, Xiaohai!”

”Morning, Miss Ye!”

Li You said it, and so did Da Bai and Xiaohai.

Then, Li You added, ”What would you like to eat? Breakfast is on me.”

Ye Shengge said, ”Thanks, Boss. A small bowl of Yangchun Noodles, please. Something light.”

Li You nodded. ”Coming right up.”

Then, he cooked two bowls of Yangchun Noodles—one large and one small.

He hadn’t eaten breakfast yet either.

The two of them ate together.

”By the way, Boss. Is it market day in town today?” Ye Shengge asked.

Li You nodded. ”It is. What’s up? Want to go wander around the town market again?”

”Yeah!” Ye Shengge was delighted. ”It’s been so long. I really miss it.”

Li You smiled. ”Then go have a look around after you finish eating.”

”Okay.”

After they slowly finished eating, Ye Shengge drove to the town market.

Li You lay on the rocking chair at the shop’s entrance, waiting for customers to arrive.

After a while, his phone rang. It was Luo Yunlin, the man who had sold fruit trees to Li You before.

He answered.

”Haha! Brother Li You, good morning. Here’s the thing, I wanted to ask you something. Someone here is holding a banquet, about twenty tables. They need a head chef. Are you interested?”

He was talking about a countryside banquet.

Li You was actually very interested in cooking for a countryside banquet.

’Because it sounds like a lot of fun.’

’Just imagine: cooking every dish at the banquet to perfection, leaving all the guests unable to get enough. That would be a blast.’

But unfortunately, he couldn’t take this job.

At least, not right now.

Because there were many dishes for which he hadn’t learned the relevant recipes yet. Although he could make them, and they wouldn’t taste bad...

...they would only be ”not bad.”

’So, I have to pass.’

Li You said, ”Sorry, Brother Luo. I’m not taking jobs for countryside banquets right now. Besides, I don’t have any experience with them, so I wouldn’t do a good job.”

”No problem, Brother Li You. I was just asking. But, you said you’re not taking them ’right now.’ Does that mean you might in the future?”

”Maybe. I’m not sure myself right now.”

”Well, I hope you’ll take them in the future! A banquet cooked by you would surely be amazing.”

”We’ll see. I might give it a try someday.”

”Haha! Great. Oh, right, my whole family has been talking nonstop about your food again. I’m trying to see when I can bring them over for a meal.”

”Haha! Of course! You’re welcome anytime.”

”Alrighty.”

”...”

The two chatted for a few more sentences before ending the call.

Afterward, Li You found himself thinking about the countryside banquet again.

’When I get the chance, I’d really love to give it a try.’

’I’ll just have to wait and see.’
