Chapter 62 Office Workers Who Stay Up All Night
Chen Yuan was taken aback by the state of the two people and asked them with concern.
"Are you two alright?"
Xu Wen said, "We feel like we're buried up to our necks. I'm almost going crazy from staying up all night these past few days."
Xu Jingjing nodded silently.
Under intense pressure, she no longer cared about appreciating Chen Yuan's stunning good looks; her mind was a complete mess, devoid of any desires other than the will to survive.
Chen Yuan said, "I left two bowls of wontons for you two. They can help improve your concentration. Although I don't know what you do for a living, I hope it will be helpful to you."
The two women showed no emotion; those words had simply passed through their smooth cerebral cortexes.
Chen Yuan turned around and started cooking wontons, while also packing two of their favorite fresh meat buns for each of them.
Turning around, I found the two people standing there with blank stares.
Chen Yuan empathized with him. When he was a corporate slave, he was in a similar state of near-death when he stayed up for several nights in a row to work on a project.
So he pointed to the small table behind him and said.
"Why don't you two go sit down and eat? You've come quite early today; you should be able to catch the bus in time."
After regaining her composure, Xu Jingjing thanked him and then pulled Xu Wen to sit down at the table.
Chen Yuan glanced at the table.
Judging from what I saw this morning, the people sitting here eating wontons were either elderly or students.
Needless to say, the students are generally quite well-mannered. After finishing their meals, they will take the initiative to throw the disposable plastic bowls into the trash can. Some of them are even more considerate and will wipe the table.
The elderly, needless to say, are a generally kind group.
In addition, Chen Yuan had become quite familiar with them during this period. These elderly people were also very diligent, and they would clean up the table after meals, making the tabletops shiny.
It does not add any extra cleaning burden to Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan ladled out the wontons and placed them in front of the two of them.
"Eat quickly."
After saying that, Chen Yuan went back to greet the guests behind him.
Just then, a middle-aged woman with her head down and wearing a hat caught Chen Yuan's attention.
Chen Yuan felt that this person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Do you still have the pork and chive and egg fillings?"
The middle-aged woman's voice sounded deliberately lowered.
"have"
"Two chive and egg dumplings, two custard buns, two fried dough sticks, and do you still have soy milk?"
"There's only one custard bun left, and we're out of soy milk."
(Please remember the website ①⓪①ⓚⓚⓢ.ⓒⓞⓜ for the fastest chapter updates)
"Then I'll have one custard bun."
Chen Yuan quickly packed up the things the man wanted and handed them over.
Without even looking up, the person took the bag, pulled their hat brim down with their other hand, and walked away quickly.
Chen Yuan found it strange, but didn't take it to heart.
After walking quite a distance and making sure Chen Yuan couldn't see her, the woman took off her hat. It turned out to be Zhao Dan, the owner of Chen's Steamed Bun Shop.
Zhao Dan took a deep breath, looked at the steamed bun in her hand, and pursed her lips.
"I'll see just how delicious it is!"
Chen Yuan was completely unaware at that moment.
at the same time.
Xu Wen, sitting at the folding table, sighed deeply. She held the spoon between her fingers, unconsciously stirred the contents of the bowl, and then launched into a declaration of world-weariness.
"Jingjing, do you think we can live to retirement?"
"..."
"Why--"
Sad topics lingered in my mind.
But it was quickly overwhelmed by the rich aroma of the bone broth.
Having stayed up all night, Xu Jingjing was starving.
She scooped up a spoonful of clear wonton soup, the delicious and rich flavor spreading along her tongue and then into her stomach, instantly awakening her dormant appetite.
"Wenwen, you should try this soup. It's really delicious and very rich. It must be bone broth."
Then Xu Jingjing scooped up another wonton.
Each wonton has a thin wrapper and a generous filling.
The translucent wonton wrappers contain tender, pink meat filling.
The wonton skin cracks as soon as your teeth touch it, revealing an incredibly bouncy and tender texture.
"Wow, these wontons are so delicious!"
After swallowing a wonton, Xu Jingjing felt as if she had been completely revived!
She didn't care about anything else and quickly scooped up the wontons one by one and put them into her mouth.
The rich and savory wonton soup, combined with the freshness of the wontons, enters the mouth together. Paired with crisp bok choy, several different textures and flavors are cleverly blended together.
too delicious!
Xu Jingjing felt at a loss for words; besides "delicious," there really wasn't a second word that could express her inner thoughts.
Xu Wen, who was sitting directly opposite, was in the same situation.
"The boss's wontons are absolutely delicious! These wonton wrappers must be homemade, right? They're so smooth and slippery! They slurped right down my throat!"
"And this bone broth is really flavorful, but not like it's made with MSG. It warms you up inside, and I feel instantly alive again!"
The two of them forgot about what to say and ate happily, taking turns eating.
After finishing the last wonton, the two of them almost simultaneously felt a cool sensation in their minds.
Immediately afterwards, my long-lost focus seemed to return.
Xu Jingjing exclaimed in surprise, "This is amazing! I feel like my mind has suddenly cleared up, it's like a dream."
Xu Wen said, "Is it just psychological? Although my condition has improved quite a bit."
By this time, Chen Yuan had already seen off the last guest.
The store has been mostly cleaned up.
Chen Yuan was tidying up the folding table when he overheard their conversation and said something.
"It's working well. Shouldn't you two be going to work? Aren't you going to be late?"
Xu Wen wasn't in a hurry. He slowly took out a tissue, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect the handsome boss to care about us so much. Don't worry, we stayed up all night last night and have already asked for leave today. We can go an hour later."
An hour?
Ok.
Chen Yuan silently sympathized with the other person in his heart, and then listened to Xu Jingjing speak.
"Boss, are these two servings of wontons reserved just for the two of us?"
Looking at Xu Jingjing's expectant eyes, Chen Yuan said.
"Yes, after all, you two are my customers who came to support me on the very first day. Of course, I have to save some of the good food for you."
"I also hope you can give me more suggestions."
Xu Wen said, "Handsome boss, you're so kind! I'll follow you forever!"
Xu Jingjing: "Me too!"
After seeing the two office workers off, Chen Yuan put the last folding table and chairs back into the house.
Then, taking Chen Youyou, who had already woken up, to Ma Wenming's place to buy breakfast.
the other side.
Chen's Steamed Bun Shop.
A steamed bun with fresh meat was broken in half by a pair of greasy hands.
