626 Youâre an Old Hooligan Yourself
âYou, youâre the owner of this shop?â Han Fei asked in disbelief.
âCanât that be the case?â
Lin Yi didnât have any hostility towards the two of them. He had almost forgotten what happened in the morning.
âOf course.â
!!
âEverything on the menu is available. Order whatever you want.â
They looked at the menu. The food wasnât cheap, but they could both afford it.
âTwo servings of egg fried rice, one serving of pork ribs corn soup, and one serving of pickled radish.â
âSure.â
Seeing Lin Yi return to the kitchen, Han Fei whispered into Xu Wanâs ear.
âLilâ Wan, whatâs going on? Heâs a chef in a restaurant, but he also wants to rent a unit in the incubation center? Itâs a totally different field, right?â
Xu Wan thought about it and asked, âIs he going to open a canteen there?â
âEh? That is possible.â Han Fei said.
âUsually, a building like this would have a cafeteria. Coincidentally, heâs also a chef. This syncs up.â
âIf thatâs the case, we might not stand a chance,â Xu Wan said.
âThe space for the canteen usually takes up an entire floor. They arenât cheap either.â
Han Fei nodded and agreed with Xu Wan.
âThat woman with sunglasses and a mask is really rich. She spent a lot of money on him.â
âIt canât be helped. Heâs so good-looking.â
âYou canât say that.â Han Fei said, âYouâre also really pretty, yet donât you rely on your own ability to succeed?â
âEveryone has their own ambitions. Thereâs no need to judge others,â Xu Wan said softly.
âHe can be considered to be self-reliant by opening a restaurant here. Isnât he also relying on his ability to make a living?â
âAlthough heâs self-reliant, he definitely doesnât earn as much as a rich woman.â Han Fei said.
âOtherwise, with his income, even if he works hard for the rest of his life, he wonât be able to cover the rent for an entire floor of the incubation center.â
âKeep your voice down. Donât let anyone hear you.â
Not long after, Lin Yi brought the food they ordered.
âBoss, you also went to the incubation center today, right? Did you take a fancy to that place?â Han Fei asked.
âWhat happened?â
âWeâve also taken a fancy to the top floor, so we want to ask if thereâs any room for negotiation.â
From Han Feiâs point of view, if he wanted to open a canteen in the building, he could only do so from the top floor.
It would be good if he was open to negotiation, since there would be no need for Zhou Ze to contact him.
âNo, try the other floors,â Lin Yi said without looking up.
âAlright, then we can only compete fairly.â
Han Fei felt that even though the rich woman beside him was rich, Zhou Zeâs family was not bad either.
If he used his connections early enough, it would not be a problem for him to get the top floor.
Tsk, isnât he just protected by a rich woman? Whatâs there to be arrogant about?
Lin Yi glanced at Han Fei and felt that this woman was quite interesting.
She even wanted to compete with him?
âThe entire incubation center belongs to me. How can you fight me for it?
Due to issue surrounding the rental of the top floor, neither of the girls were in the mood to eat.
As a result, the two of them ate very quickly. After paying, they left in a hurry.
âThis man is too good at pretending. Isnât he just a little good-looking? Why is does he act like that? He doesnât even look up or open his eyes when he speaks. Itâs as if he doesnât take us seriously.â
âWeâre just a small start-up company, not some big conglomerate. Why should he take us seriously?â
âArenât we just starting out? Itâs normal for the company to be small.â Han Fei said.
âBut we built this from scratch and didnât do anything crooked. He has a rich woman behind him, so I look down on him. What a waste of his face.â
âDo you have to be so indignant?â Xu Wan said.
âThe celebrities youâre pursuing also have rich women supporting them. Arenât you also one of their high-profile supporters?â
âThatâs different. Someone was deliberately slandering that celebrity. On the other hand, we saw what is going on between him and that woman. Moreover, this guy wants to book the entire floor. The issue is clear to see.â
âIâve already said that everyone has their own ambitions. Letâs not get too involved and just focus on own thing. Besides, the egg fried rice he makes is quite delicious. I havenât gotten my fill of it.â
For a long time, Xu Wan did not have a good impression of these people who relied on their looks to make a living.
However, she also knew that this was someone elseâs business. She could not interfere, nor did she have the right to comment too much.
âIn truth, I donât care if he has a rich woman or not, but his arrogant face is really infuriating. Itâs as if the entire building belongs to him,â Han Fei said.
âIâll call Zhou Ze later and ask him if he can rent the unit on the top floor. Iâll then slap his face with the rental contract. Hmph!â
â¦
Not long after the two of them left, the storeâs business also picked up again.
However, not long after, the storeâs door was angrily pushed open.
A middle-aged man walked in with two students.
âWhereâs the boss?â
âDirector Li, the boss is the only one in this restaurant. Heâs probably cooking inside,â said a long-haired girl.
âLetâs go. Follow me to find him.â
The middle-aged manâs name was Li Zhiwei, and he was the director of the academic affairs department of Zhonghai Institute of Technology.
After learning that two international students from the school had been beaten up, he brought his students over.
âMr. Li, the boss has a bad temper. Will he listen to you?â The female student asked.
âI am still someone to be respected.â Li Zhiwei said, âJust bring me over.â
âGot it, Teacher Li.â
Li Zhiwei was brought to the kitchen and saw Lin Yi cooking.
However, he only saw his back and didnât recognize Lin Yi.
âExcuse me. Youâre the owner of this shop, right?â
Hearing someone speak, Lin Yi turned around.
To his surprise, it was Li Zhiwei, the administrative director of the school.
âLin Yi? Why are you here?â
âIâm the boss of this place, so of course I have to be here,â Lin Yi said, âTeacher Li, are you very free today? Are you here to support me?â
Lin Yi and Li Zhiwei were old acquaintances.
When Lin Yi was in school, he was often involved in many âbig casesâ at Zhonghai Technology. Due to this, he often went to Li Zhiweiâs office for tea.
However, Lin Yiâs results were not bad. Moreover, every time he committed a crime, he did not do anything serious enough to warrant expulsion.
Due to this reason, the two of them had often butted heads in terms of both wit and courage.
This relationship lasted until Lin Yi graduated.
The two female students were a little surprised. They didnât expect the handsome boss to graduate from Zhonghai Technology.
In other words, wasnât he their senior?
âItâs even better that youâre the boss here.â Li Zhiwei said.
âHurry up and call the police station. Donât force those two graduate students to pay anymore. After that, apologize to them. Iâll help you make peace with them and this matter will be considered over.â
âHuh?â Lin Yi said, âWhat are you talking about? Did you not get enough sleep last night?â
âLin Yi, how can you talk to me like that? Iâm a teacher!â
âTeacher? I think youâre dreaming.â Lin Yi said.
âDo you not have to pay for your food? Do you not have to pay for damaged goods?â
âDonât you know what youâre selling? Isnât it obvious that youâre lying when you claim a bottle of red wine and two steaks costs 140,000 yuan?
âIf they pursue the matter, youâll have to bear the consequences. Canât you tell that Iâm trying to protect you?â
âI canât agree with you.â Lin Yi said.
âA massage from a masseuse at the bathhouse cost 80 yuan per bath. Meanwhile, the girls in the club are 8,000 yuan per night. Itâs not the same thing, so itâs naturally not the same price. Youâre an old hooligan yourself, so why donât you understand this simple logic?â
