Chapter 1478
Chapter 1478 You’ve Made Me Very Tempted
“Stop making a fuss,” Li Muen teased.
Chen Yang walked into the villa area, where the environment was much better than that of the high-rise building area because there was more greenery, and it was quiet, elegant, and luxurious. This was Chen Yang’s evaluation of this place.
“When I make money in the future, I will also buy a villa.”
Chen Yang thought to himself.
The crowd continued to walk in and arrived at their destination.
“This villa is so big.”
Chen Yang walked around the courtyard, looking around.
Buzz!
Just as he was looking to the left, a sound suddenly came from the right.
It was the sound of the garage door being lifted.
He looked inside.
“Holy shit!”
Chen Yang suddenly widened his eyes.
“Lamborghini, Panamera, Mercedes-Benz, my God…”
Chen Yang was stunned on the spot.
These luxury cars, which he often saw on TV or websites, were now in front of him. He felt incredibly overwhelmed.
This was also because he would not restrain his feelings. He wore all his emotions on his face. Some people would always appear calm even if they had mixed feelings.
“Don’t just stand there. Get in the car,” Li Muen said.
Under Chen Yang’s gaze, Mengmeng took the car key from the wall, pressed it, and got in the car.
“That’s a Bentley!”
Chen Yang got in the car. He and Li Muen sat in the back seat. As soon as he got in the car, he groped.
He turned to Li Muen and asked, “It’s the first time I’m in a luxury car. It’s so cool. What’s this function?”
It wasn’t strange for him to ask since he didn’t know it. Li Muen didn’t look down on him or be annoyed.
She was very happy to answer Chen Yang’s question.
“Boss Chen, it seems that I have to coach you…”
Mengmeng started the car and drove it out of the villa area slowly.
Yue Xiaonao was sitting in the passenger seat, quietly enjoying the scenery.
In the back seat, Li Muen and Chen Yang chatted, talking about what he didn’t know about the car.
Mengmeng followed the navigation system and went to the truck trading market.
It was about 15 kilometers away.
After chatting for a while, Chen Yang finally got used to the car.
“It’s both psychologically and physically comfortable to sit in a luxury car.”
Chen Yang clicked his tongue in wonder.
“By the way, did you rent that villa or buy it?” Chen Yang asked curiously.
“Mengmeng’s dad bought it at the beginning of the semester so that she can have a place to take a break or go to parties on weekdays,” Li Muen said. “Let me tell you, Mengmeng’s dad, Uncle Zhang, is very good at cooking. The dishes he makes are super delicious. Even though he always cooks for Mengmeng, and normally, others don’t get to try his cooking, I was lucky enough to scrounge free meals from them several times.”
“Really?” Chen Yang said with a laugh, “I heard from Ding Bing that Mengmeng’s dad is very handsome.”
“Of course, he is.”
When Mengmeng spoke of this, there was a trace of joy and pride on her face. She said with a smile, “My father is super handsome.”
“Your family is really rich. Right after you started college, your dad bought a big villa nearby and so many luxury cars. It’s been two months since school started. How come you’ve never driven the cars to show off on the street?” Chen Yang asked.
“She’s tired of driving these cars, of course.” Li Muen leaned against the back of the chair and said leisurely, “I’ve been to the garage in Mengmeng’s house where there are hundreds of luxury cars. I can drive any of them. When we were in high school, Mengmeng drove supercars to school.”
They had become associates. Although Chen Yang was somehow a jerk, his strength had been accepted by their small team, so Li Muen did not intend to hide the most basic information about them.
“This… I’ve only heard of it in legends.” Chen Yang was tongue-tied.
In less than two minutes, he was all smiles. “Well, I have an idea, but I don’t know if I should say it.”
“I guess it’s not something great.” Yue Xiaonao snorted.
“I think since you don’t drive these luxury cars often anyway, wouldn’t it be a waste to put them in the garage?” Chen Yang’s eyes were full of excitement. “I’ll renovate the parking spaces in front of our restaurant, and we can put those luxury cars there. It will definitely attract great attention.”
“What’s the use of this? Whether the restaurant is good or not depends on whether the food is delicious or not,” Li Muen said.
“We’ll have a taste of the food at noon. It’s definitely several times better than what I made that day. The taste won’t be a problem. You can park the cars there conveniently,” Chen Yang said. “You don’t get it. Luxury cars are particularly attractive to people like me. Even though they don’t belong to me, I’ll be in a good mood if I get to look at them every day. The cars will show that our restaurant is a cool place, and it will also make people think that some rich guys dine there.”
“Then you can find some time to drive the cars there,” Mengmeng said indifferently.
“Can I? You’re not lying to me, are you?” Chen Yang was pleasantly surprised.
He was telling the truth. If he had nice cars parked in front of the restaurant, even if they didn’t belong to him, he would feel great looking at them.
“Look at how envious you are.” Yue Xiaonao glanced at him and chuckled. “Mengmeng has agreed. You will drive the cars to the restaurant. You can also drive them in normal times.”
Gurgle!
Chen Yang swallowed and said, “Well, you have the insurance for the cars in place, don’t you? To be honest, I don’t dare to drive them, for fear of getting them scratched.”
“It’s up to you,” Yue Xiaonao replied.
“I have the insurance. Scumbag, you can drive to pick up girls. Don’t always hook up with Zihan,” Mengmeng said.
“I… Alas, can’t you see that I’m also sincere to Zihan?”
“Piss off!”
“Okay.”
Chen Yang stopped talking and sat happily in the back seat, feeling like he was at the peak of his life.
Chen Yang got out of the car and said, “We’re here. I’ll ask for some discounts later.”
After all, they would need to buy two medium-sized trucks.
However, he didn’t expect the girls to be so straightforward that they directly asked for the lowest price and asked for payment without asking for any gifts.
Chen Yang reminded them again and again, “We must ask for some gifts.”
It took less than two hours for them to buy the trucks.
They went straight back to the restaurant and parked casually in the parking space.
After all, the Bentley was very eye-catching.
To their surprise, all the tables were full.
They had already reached the entrance of the restaurant. The customers could get 50 percent off the cost of their meals. One could have a portion of Bagna cauda for only 16 bucks, and there was even a long queue in front of the restaurant.
“Well, there are two tables by the kitchen. Why don’t you eat there?” Chen Yang asked.
“All right.” Mengmeng didn’t mind it.
They went up to the third floor and saw the busy kitchen.
“Don’t rush it. Sanitation is our priority.”
Second Grandpa Chen was still meticulous. There was some sweat on his forehead, but he looked quite happy with the busy work.
“Yang, according to the current selling rate, we will definitely run out of the ham tonight. I’ve already contacted a guy to express send the supplies here, and they will only arrive tomorrow. You need to buy some ham in West Capital first and get the stuff here by three o’clock in the afternoon,” Secon Grandpa Chen said.
“I’ll get it right away.”
Chen Yang immediately went downstairs. When he saw the staff getting busy, he felt his scalp go numb. There were not enough waiters.
After thinking for a while, he came to a waitress and said, “Go to the wholesale market to buy some ham. It won’t matter if you overbuy. Get someone to send it over as soon as possible.”
“I, I, okay.” The girl was a little hesitant. She was afraid that she would not do it well, but this was also an opportunity.
“Forget it, I’ll go by myself.”
Chen Yang suddenly caught a glimpse of the Bentley outside and was eager to have a try. He quickly ran up to the third floor.
“Sister Meng, I’m going to buy some ham.”
She noticed that his eyes were fixed on the car key on the table.
“Okay, just go.”
Mengmeng casually pushed the car key to him.
“I’m a little nervous. How about…” Chen Yang said stutteringly.
It was the first time he had seen such a straightforward rich lady.
“No one will go with you. Go by yourself,” Mengmeng said grumpily. “Get out of here now.”
“Okay.”
Chen Yang took the car key and left with a smile. Before he left, he said, “Second Grandpa, will you come with me? I’ll take you to get a ride in a luxury car.”
“Get out of my way,” Secon Grandpa Chen annoyingly said.
How could he leave the kitchen when he was so busy?
Chen Yang left the third floor awkwardly and walked to the first floor. He left while shaking the car key. Under the gaze of several waiters, he got into the Bentley.
He enjoyed the envious eyes around him.
Chen Yang gently stepped on the accelerator.
He was very careful while backing the car and taking a turn. It took him three minutes to cover a distance of five meters. He was so nervous that he sweated profusely.
Fortunately, when he arrived at the exit, Chen Yang got the trick of driving the car. It was much easier to drive on the flat road.
“This sound of the engine is so cool. Amazing.
“It’s so strong and so fucking flexible.”
He drove forward for ten minutes.
Chen Yang was suddenly stunned. “Oh my god, I forgot to use the navigation system!”
When he pulled up at the traffic lights, he turned on the navigation system and then drove to the wholesale market.
Chen Yang knew the number of goods in the restaurant, and he bought a lot of goods. Since the restaurant had so many customers at noon, it would almost be the same in the evening.
It was almost two o’clock in the afternoon after he bought the goods in two wholesale markets.
“I’ll have to skip class again this afternoon.”
Chen Yang rubbed his forehead.
When he returned to the restaurant, there were still many people dining inside.
In the past three hours, more than 200 tables had been served and the turnover had reached 5,200 bucks.
This was achieved due to the discount.
It was also because of the discount that there were many customers.
When the discount ended, the restaurant would not be so popular, but Chen Yang was tempted while thinking of the prospect of the business.
“This is really fast money.”
Chen Yang parked the car and went back to the restaurant. He didn’t relax until three o’clock.
“Everyone, take turns to rest for an hour and prepare the ingredients.”
At the back of the restaurant, Secon Grandpa Chen was giving orders.
Chen Yang was reassured and went back to school.
It was five o’clock in the afternoon. Chen Yang didn’t plan to go for self-study after class. After thinking for a while, he asked for leave from Counselor Hou. He took the key to the villa, ran back and forth, and drove the cars to the entrance of the restaurant one by one.
“Boss, you have a lot of luxury cars. This is the first time I’ve seen a supercar at such a close distance.”
Some of the waiters looked back and forth.
“They’re not mine but our big boss’. By the way, don’t call me boss in the future. Call me Manager Chen,” Chen Yang said seriously.
“Yes, Manager Chen.”
Seeing everyone’s reaction, Chen Yang thought for a moment and said, “Ask all the waiters to come and have a small meeting.”
He told everyone to call him Manager Chen at the meeting.
After that, Chen Yang went out to keep an eye on the passers-by when he saw that they were approaching the cars.
Although he had surveillance cameras installed, he was still worried.
He simply stood outside for about half an hour.
More and more people began to come to the restaurant.
“Little sheep.”
Chen Yang went up to Ye Xiaomu with a smile.
“What did you call me?” Ye Xiaomu rolled her eyes.
There were four girls around her. Three of them were her roommates, and the other was her good friend.
“Come on, I’ve already reserved seats for you.”
Chen Yang smiled as he led them in.
Seeing this, some waiters even said with a smile, “Manager Chen.”
“Yeah.”
Chen Yang blinked at them and walked to a dining table with the girls.
They ordered food. The dishes were served.
Chen Yang also kept the girls company and chatted with them. He would occasionally leave for work.
One of Ye Xiaomu’s roommates said, “The cars out there are so cool.”
“Eh? Why do you have so many car keys?”
Someone noticed that Chen Yang had five car keys hanging by his waist.
“The cars out there belong to the owners of the restaurant. They just left the cars in the garage. I suggested that we drive them here,” Chen Yang said, winking at Ye Xiaomu. “I’ll take you for a spin tonight.”
“No need for that,” Ye Xiaomu refused. Furthermore, her expression had grown a bit colder.
Chen Yang did not know what the problem was.
“Are they girls?” Ye Xiaomu’s roommate asked.
“Uh…” Chen Yang seemed to have noticed something.
Could it be that the little sheep was jealous?
He said with a smile, “My bosses are three girls, and the cars belong to them. My Second Grandpa is highly skilled at cooking and was hired to work as a chef here, so I’m here to temper myself by being a manager, managing this restaurant.”
After the explanation, the look on Ye Xiaomu’s face eased up.
“Humph, you can’t always drive other people’s cars. When you earn enough, you’ll buy one for yourself, and I’ll take your ride by then,” Ye Xiaomu said.
“Okay,” Chen Yang said with a smile. “The cars will be parked here for the time being. I’ll drive them when I need to run errands for the restaurant. These cars belong to the company.”
“The company’s cars are all pink and not suitable for you to drive,” Ye Xiaomu said.
“The supercar is indeed a little feminine. I can drive the Bentley and the Benz,” Chen Yang replied.
“You’re amazing. You’re starting a business at such a young age.”
“Yeah. Ye Xiaomu always talks about you.”
“No, I don’t.” Ye Xiaomu retorted.
After the meal, they chatted for a while.
Ye Xiaomu suggested that Chen Yang send her back to school.
The two of them were at the back.
“What do you think our relationship is?” Ye Xiaomu suddenly asked.
They had been together for a long time, but this guy had never confessed his love. He was sometimes close to her and sometimes not, which made Ye Xiaomu displeased.
“We’re childhood sweethearts, of course. Haha, there must be a lot of people wooing you in your school.” Chen Yang changed the topic.
“There are.” Ye Xiaomu rolled her eyes and said, “I just joined the Student Union recently. There will be a party in a few days. Our minister has confessed his love to me.”
“Most of the confessions are useless,” Chen Yang said. “You need a romantic confession, little sheep, and not those scumbags who just talk the talk and don’t walk the walk.”
“…”
“You go back first. I have to go to the restaurant to check the guys’ work. It’s dinner hour now.” At the gate of the Sci-Tech University, Chen Yang said seriously, “Don’t worry about my studies. I usually work in the restaurant on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.”
“Go ahead. Don’t exhaust yourself. I’m happy to see you make such progress. You’re different from before and have become mature. You give me a sense of security,” Ye Xiaomu said with a smile.
They talked like a couple.
However, Chen Yang had yet to confess his love.
“Haha, I’m leaving.” Chen Yang waved his hand with a smile. After Ye Xiaomu left, he turned around and walked quickly.
He ran more than two hundred meters forward.
“Zihan, over here.”
Chen Yang waved his hand and said, “Have a taste of the food today. You’ll start your work after getting familiar with the environment.”
Lv Zihan replied shyly, “Thank you.”
Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, and Li Muen were standing next to her.
They were just passing by and did not intend to go to the restaurant for dinner. Zheng Dan and Lv Zihan were going to try out the food.
“And me.”
Zheng Dan said, “Representative Chen, you also promised me.”
“Alright.”
Chen Yang nodded and muttered, “I don’t know what you’re here for.”
“What do you think?”
Zheng Dan leaned back. Thinking that no one else could see her, she threw a flirtatious glance at Chen Yang, pouted her lips, and blew him a kiss.
“Ahem.”
Chen Yang’s mouth twitched slightly. “This girl is getting more and more out of line.”
However, Mengmeng and Yue Xiaonao had both sensed it.
“Alas!”
Mengmeng sighed with exhaustion and said, “I’m telling you, don’t mess around.”
“Don’t worry, Sister Meng. I won’t mess with you,” Chen Yang promised as he patted his chest.
Mengmeng looked ahead, ignoring him.
She had Yue Xiaonao, Zheng Dan, and Lv Zihan as her roommates.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yang, a flaky person, had been after Lv Zihan while he had a childhood sweetheart at Sci-Tech University. Lv Zihan didn’t show any opinion about it, but Zheng Dan looked like she was going to hit on him.
“This is madness…
“What’s so good about Chen Yang? He’s just a jerk.”
In terms of his relationship with his classmates, Chen Yang was humorous, cheerful, and optimistic. He was outstanding. However, Mengmeng and Yue Xiaonao had seen many outstanding talents before.
Even so, it was quite amazing of him to hang out with Mengmeng and the others.
“Well, enjoy your meal. We’ll have some cold drinks in the front.”
When they arrived at the door of the restaurant, there were still a lot of people inside. Some were lining up while seated.
Cheng Yang had bought a piano. The environment on the first floor was very nice and elegant. He was still hiring singers, but some people had volunteered to play the piano while waiting in line.
There were a lot of things that made the restaurant look nice, and it was indeed popular.
“Wow, these cars…”
Zheng Dan was very tempted as she looked at the cars.
She didn’t like cars, but she liked the wealth and vanity they represented.
“Let’s go. I’ve reserved a table for you inside.”
Chen Yang brought the two girls into the restaurant.
As for Mengmeng and the other two, they didn’t find a suitable cold drinks shop. Instead, they saw a cafe with a good environment, which was called Kooler Cafe.
They entered the cafe, sat down, and ordered three cups of coffee.
A man with slightly disheveled hair but an artistic air was sitting on the small stage with a guitar in his hands, singing a song.
“Hey.”
Mengmeng was stunned.
Upon closer inspection, she found that the resident singer was actually a martial artist.
“What is he doing here? Experiencing different kinds of lifestyle?
“He’s probably a Qi Strength Master.
“He would be quite respected among some influential families and aristocrats in the city.”
“His singing is quite good, and he looks stylish.” Li Muen said with some interest, “His hair is messy and sloppy, but it makes him look even more special. Isn’t our restaurant in need of a regular singer? Shall I ask him if he would be interested?”
“Just ask him about it,” Yue Xiaonao said casually.
“I’ll go to him when he finishes singing,” Li Muen said.
They sat there for half an hour.
The singer got off the stage with the guitar and received his salary.
Li Muen waved her hand and called out, “Excuse me, could you ask the regular singer to come here, please?”
A moment later, the singer came over with his guitar and said with a smile, “Hello.”
“Our restaurant also needs a regular singer. Would you consider our offer?” Li Muen got straight to the point.
The man was stunned.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced around, and fixed his eyes on Mengmeng’s face.
“A restaurant owned by you three? If this pretty girl invites me, I’ll go.” He smiled and pointed to Mengmeng, saying bluntly, “You’ve made me very tempted.”
There was a sudden change in his aura.
It was as if the sloppy literary man had turned into a prince, with an extraordinary temperament.
It was as if he was saying to Mengmeng’s face, “I’m going to woo you.”
“Hmm?”
Mengmeng smiled, and a white light flashed in her eyes. The strong power overwhelmed the man.
Mengmeng dragged her voice and said, “What do you mean by tempted?”
