After Wen Yuan sent the text message, Zhang White didn't reply for a long time. He was not sure in his heart, and looked at Qi Jinran behind him, "Jinran, you said White... Would he care?"

"Whether you care, we'll find out when we return to Wancheng tomorrow."

"Well, when I get back to Wancheng, I have to discuss with White how to increase the passenger flow."

"You said earlier that the decoration style of the dessert shop opposite is very similar to yours?" the man asked him.

"Yes, but I haven't seen it yet. I'll go there tomorrow to taste what their store tastes like."

Qi Jinran's eyes were dark, and she put one hand around Wen Yuan's waist and touched his black hair.

"You take a few photos and send them to me. If the design style is very similar, we can sue them for infringement."

"Well, I'll do it tomorrow."

It only takes three hours to return to Wancheng from S City. As soon as he landed, Wen Yuan couldn't wait to go to the dessert shop. To his surprise, Xiaohui told him that the store manager took a leave of absence today and was not in the store.

Only the head chef and a few assistants were busy in the back kitchen. Since Wen Yuan came over that day and talked with the new head chef, the head chef didn't rush to leave, but just said to stay for a while. try.

But Wen Yuan also knew in his heart that this chef and Zhang White had different personalities, so he probably wouldn't be around for long, and he had to find the next one. If Chen Xingyu can come back, it would be the best. Chen Xingyu and Zhang White's baking skills are on the same level. If the two continue to cooperate, the business of the dessert shop will definitely be prosperous, but unfortunately...

Wen Yuan went to the shop opposite, and as soon as he walked in, he smelled the sweet and greasy fragrance. In addition to selling desserts, this store also sells coffee and various milk teas. The decoration style is the low-end version of their store.

Wen Yuan sat down on a booth and found that the plants in the store were all fake, and the flowers on the table were also fake flowers, and suddenly wanted to laugh.

No wonder, as soon as I entered, I smelled a faint plastic smell.

He ordered a few signature desserts, took them away, returned to his shop, and tried them with Xiaohui.

The cottage store also imitated their cheesecake, but the taste is far from their store. The taste of cheese is not strong, and the cake embryo is not soft enough. As for other desserts such as Black Forest Red Velvet, the cream used can be tasted as inferior vegetable cream. No wonder the price is so low.

"I'm going! This macaron is too hard, like a stone." Xiaohui took a bite of the blue macaron and put it down.

"Such unpalatable food, I don't know why business is so good." She looked indignant.

Wen Yuan glanced at the opposite side with a light expression.

"They have just opened, and there are various promotions, and the price is lower than ours. Customers will of course choose their home. Many people don't pay much attention to desserts, so it's normal that they can't taste good or bad."

Xiaohui was so angry that she emptied the macarons on the table into the trash can.

"It's just that bad money drives out good money, and the owner of the store opposite is too disgusting."

"That's how the market is. If a family is doing well, everyone wants to share the cake, which can easily lead to involution."

"By the way, did White say where did he go?" This Monday, there were very few customers in the store, so even if Zhang White was not there, the back kitchen was not too busy.

"I seem to see that he bought a plane ticket and should go to another place."

Air tickets? Wen Yuan's heart moved slightly. Could it be that White really went to Chen Xingyu?

"Wen Yuan, I see that those food anchors on the Internet are very popular, should we also invite an Internet celebrity to bring goods or something?"

Wen Yuan had the same idea as Xiao Hui a few days ago, but after a little investigation, he found that this idea was not feasible.

"Those Internet celebrities have too much water, and the live broadcast fee is expensive, and they may not be able to make money back. It's better that we make an account and try it ourselves."

When Xiaohui heard this, she clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? There are so many handsome guys in our store, what kind of internet celebrity are we going to invite, and the handsome guys in our store can become internet celebrities themselves!"

Wen Yuan smiled, his expression a little melancholy.

"Let's talk about it when your store manager comes back. We can plan a preliminary plan for this matter, and discuss it with him when he comes back..."

Wen Yuan stayed in the dessert shop for an afternoon, held meetings with several chefs and assistants, stabilized the army, and returned to Shuixieju in the evening.

He was making red velvet cake in the bakery, and while he was spreading cream, his phone suddenly rang.

He picked up the phone, and it was Zhang White's slightly hoarse voice.

"Wen Yuan, can you take me in? I can't go home today."

Wen Yuan was startled, and looked out the window, Zhang White's white Chevrolet was parked outside.

Wen Yuan had a hunch what was going on, so he walked downstairs quickly and walked towards the entrance.

In the driveway, seeing him appear, the Chevrolet's window was lowered, revealing Zhang White's face.

Seeing the bruises on the young man's face, Wen Yuan's expression was extremely shocked, and his mouth was slightly open.

"White, you got into a fight with someone?"

Zhang Huai's handsome and deep face was a little gloomy, and he did not deny it.

"My God, who did you fight with?" Wen Yuan suddenly thought of a possibility and looked at him in disbelief.

"You wouldn't go to S City and see what Zixuan—"

"Ouyang Zixuan." Zhang White said those four words coldly.

"Who let him do anything to Chen Xingyu?"

Wen Yuan didn't believe that Ouyang Zixuan would be such a senseless person. He was eager to know what happened, so he took out his mobile phone and called Chen Xingyu. However, no one answered.

"Don't fight, I'll tell you what happened."

Zhang White turned off the engine, got out of the car, and slammed the door shut.

"Do you have wine at home?"

in the living room.

Zhang White held the half-empty red wine bottle, his long and thick eyelashes drooped down, and his fair face had a touch of red.

Wen Yuan brought the freshly baked red velvet cake in front of him, and said tentatively, "White, have you eaten yet? Do you want to eat something first?"

Zhang White's state looks bad.

"I can't eat it, forget it."

Zhang White took a sip of wine, put the bottle on the coffee table, the black hair on his forehead fell down, and his expression was unprecedentedly sluggish.

"White, did you go to S City to find Chen Xingyu?" Wen Yuan asked him cautiously.

Zhang Huai didn't speak, just drank the wine one after another. He did go to S City to find Chen Xingyu, he just wanted to know why Chen Xingyu was able to be with other men so quickly after confessing to him. He didn't want to believe it, he had to see it with his own eyes.

As a result, I went to the baking school, and as soon as I entered the classroom of the advanced class, I saw Chen Xingyu standing with the man wearing glasses, discussing the steps of making oubao.

Chen Xingyu's face was stained with flour, and the man with glasses reached out and wiped it for him. The two were very close.

Unspeakable anger immediately swept Zhang White. The person who used to work closely with Chen Xingyu in the back kitchen was obviously him, so why is there another man beside him now? And Chen Xingyu was smiling so happily at that man!

The flames of jealousy burned his heart, and Zhang White's face was even a little distorted because he was too angry. He strode up to Chen Xingyu.

He didn't think about starting a fight with Ouyang Zixuan, but when the man saw him appear, his expression suddenly became very defensive. He wanted to say a few words to Chen Xingyu, but he was stopped by the man.

"Zhang White, what are you doing here? Didn't you all reject Xingyu?" In the empty classroom with no students, Ouyang Zixuan looked at him coldly, keeping Chen Xingyu behind him.

"This is about me and him, you don't need to worry about it!"

Zhang White knew that Ouyang Zixuan was Chen Xingyu's best friend in City S, but he never knew that Ouyang Zixuan had such feelings for Chen Xingyu. Obviously he is the one who grew up with Chen Xingyu, how could someone take his place?

"Zhang White, even if you're a scumbag, you have to have a limit. If you don't like Xingyu, why do you come here? Xingyu's business is mine, why can't I care?"

Seeing Chen Xingyu standing behind Ouyang Zixuan, motionless, without even looking at him, Zhang White's heart suddenly cooled.

"Who are you? Chen Xingyu's business is your business? Oh, you've known him longer than me?" Zhang White looked at Ouyang Zixuan contemptuously, and spit out vicious words unconsciously.

"You make it clear that the person Chen Xingyu likes is me. He won't give you a second look. Don't pretend to be sentimental here."

"You—" Ouyang Zixuan blushed with anger at his words, and the blue veins on his forehead were heaving.

"I like you, but that's in the past." Suddenly, Chen Xingyu said coldly.

Zhang Huai was shocked, his whole body was like falling into an ice cellar, and he looked at him in disbelief.

Ouyang Zixuan suddenly became complacent, "Zhang White, don't you understand people's language? They said they don't like you, can you get out of my way—"

Before Ouyang Zixuan could finish speaking, Zhang White punched him in the face.

"So...you got into a fight, my God, is there anything wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just some skin injuries."

Thinking that in the police station at that time, Chen Xingyu actually ignored him and kept helping Ouyang Zixuan to wipe the wound, Zhang Huai's heart throbbed for a while.

He realized that he made a special trip to S City to see Chen Xingyu, and he bought the fastest ticket as soon as he came out of the police station and returned to Wancheng.

With such a ghostly look on his face, it is naturally impossible to go home. The originally rented house had long since been rented out because he was going to open a dessert shop. He had nowhere to go, so he had to come to Wen Yuan.

Hearing what he said, Wen Yuan crossed various complex expressions on his face, surprised, shocked, regretful, and so on. He looked at Zhang White's face for a while, and then tentatively said, "White, why do you want to What about fighting Ouyang Zixuan?"

"I just can't get used to him being a gentle scum. Like a fox."

Wen Yuan smiled and couldn't help but said, "But Ouyang Zixuan is not with Chen Xingyu, why are you so angry?"

There was a strange light in Zhang White's black eyes. He wanted to say something, but in the end he just took a sip of wine slowly.

Wen Yuan finally gave him a knowing blow, "White, are you in love with Chen Xingyu?"

This time, Zhang White didn't deny it. His eyes were a little red. After drinking the last bit of red wine in the bottle, he collapsed on the sofa.

Wen Yuan looked at him, his face full of bruises, and his expression was a little unbearable, so he decided to take the medicine box to help him deal with it.

As soon as he opened the medicine box and took out the cotton swab, Qi Jinran came back.

When he saw Zhang White sleeping in the living room, his handsome brows were slightly wrinkled.

"How did this guy get here?"

Wen Yuan briefly told him what happened just now.

"Deserved." Qi Jinran snorted coldly and snatched the cotton swab from Wen Yuan's hand.

"You go to take a bath, you want me to wipe it for him."

"Then remember to be gentle." Wen Yuan was a little worried when he saw the man gnashing his teeth.

"Don't worry, I'll take it easy."

Qi Jinran curled the corners of his mouth coldly, and after seeing Wenyuan went to the bedroom, he pressed the cotton swab dipped in medicine on Zhang White's face.

Zhang Huai was so drunk that he cried out in pain unconsciously, and soon fell asleep again.

Wen Yuan came out of the shower and found that Zhang White's face had already been medicated. Qi Jinran was sitting on the sofa watching the news. Seeing him come out, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is this guy going to stay?"

"White said it was inconvenient for him to go home today, so let's take him in for one night." Wen Yuan pleadingly looked at the man.

"No, I don't accept alcoholics here."

Knowing that Qi Jinran was angry, Wen Yuan leaned over to the man, grabbed his arm and shook it coquettishly, looking at him with wet black eyes.

"Let's help White. White has come to his senses now. He fought today for Chen Xingyu's sake. I think the two of them can still be saved. Don't give up on him so soon, okay?"

"It's all because of him that he has been reduced to what he is today." Qi Jinran glanced at the person on the ground and made a neat evaluation.

"You can only sleep in the guest room. I will let the housekeeper come in to deal with it, you don't care." The man finally compromised.

"Okay, okay, I don't care." Seeing the housekeeper helping Zhang White to the room, Wen Yuan felt relieved, thought about it, and sent Chen Xingyu a text message.

- White had a drink today, and at my place, I let the housekeeper take care of him, you don't have to worry.

He knew that even if Chen Xingyu pretended to ignore Zhang White on the surface, he still cared about him in his heart.

Sure enough, he responded quickly.

-sorry to bother you.

After reading the text message, Wen Yuan let out a long sigh and put the phone on the bedside table. He took out his laptop and wanted to study how to make a food video. After a few minutes of watching, Qi Jinran came out of the bathroom.

The man closes the laptop on his lap and puts it aside.

"What electronic products are you looking at so late, hurry up and go to bed."

"I'll just watch it for a few more minutes. I want to learn how to make videos." Wen Yuan wanted to go to the bedside table to get a computer, but the man grabbed his arm and pressed him on the bed.

Qi Jinran's black hair was still full of moisture, and his handsome face looked at him up close.

Wen Yuan has been busy with her graduation thesis and the dessert shop these past few days, and the two of them have never been close enough. Seeing Qi Jinran's deep eyes now, Wen Yuan's heart is also a little itchy.

"What did you do wrong today? Do you know?" Qi Jinran grabbed his arm and pressed it on the bed, her slender body covering him oppressively.

"I should have told you in advance, before I brought Zhang White home." Wen Yuan honestly admitted his mistake.

The man snorted coldly, his eyes darkened.

"Not only this, you are not allowed to drink with other men in the future."

"I didn't drink. I just watched White drinking. He's in a bad mood. It's okay to want to vent."

"It's not okay to watch others drink, you know that Zhang White is treating you—" The man paused and didn't say anything, but his cheeks were biting faintly.

Wen Yuan knew what he was thinking, his eyebrows were slightly curved, and he couldn't help smoothing his hair.

"Husband, don't be angry, White may have liked me before, but the person he likes now is Chen Xingyu. You really don't have to worry."

Afraid that Qi Jinran was still sulking, he took the initiative to put his arms around the man's neck and gave him a strong kiss on the corner of his mouth.

"What pose do you want to use today... I promise you all, okay?

Qi Jinran's throat moved, feeling a little thirsty in her throat.

"You said it yourself."

He couldn't help but put his hand on Wen Yuan's neck, stroking the Adam's apple that was sliding on it.

"Well, I promise to do what I say." Wen Yuan looked at him with fiery eyes.

The man's chest felt like a flame was ignited, the heat spread to his limbs, and even the nerve endings began to get excited.

He tore off the buttons of Wen Yuan's pajamas in two or three strokes and pressed him on the bed.

"Wait, your hair hasn't been blown yet." Seeing that Wen Yuan was about to sit up, Qi Jinran pressed his head down impatiently.

"Don't worry, you're going to sweat anyway."

The warm lips were pressed up, the familiar breath of the man wrapped him, Wen Yuan kissed him back enthusiastically, and his expression gradually became a little blurred.

As expected, Qi Jinran did what she said and didn't even take off the prosthesis, and tossed him in different ways overnight.

In the second half of the night, Wen Yuan was so tired that he fell asleep, groggy, his body vacated, and he was carried into the bathroom.

Qi Jinran patiently helped him wash his body and changed into new pajamas before carrying him to the bed.

As soon as Wen Yuan was put down, the sleeping boy subconsciously hugged his arm and didn't let him go.

Qi Jinran reluctantly and dotingly touched his hair, followed by laying in the quilt and hugging Wen Yuan tightly.

When Wen Yuan was still asleep in the morning, Qi Jinran woke up. The man went downstairs to the kitchen to make sandwiches, and happened to meet Zhang White coming out of the bedroom.

Zhang White looked a little embarrassed when he saw the red marks on his neck.

Qi Jinran greeted him calmly.

"Want to stay for breakfast? I'll make sandwiches."

"No, I still have to go to the store. I trouble you and Wen Yuan last night."

Zhang Huai turned to leave, but was suddenly stopped by a man.

"Some people won't wait for you all the time. What you disdain may be regarded as treasures by others. I hope you understand this truth."

Zhang White's back stiffened, his eyelashes trembled twice, he nodded slightly, and walked out of the villa.

Since the fight that day, Zhang White seems to have returned to his former high-spirited state. He goes to the store early every day to develop new desserts, and is the last to leave at night.

Wen Yuan has always been concerned about making food videos, but he has never found a suitable person who can cut videos. He told Ji Hong about this, and the latter suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"The boss of our dormitory is not from the computer department, so let him recommend a few people."

Wen Yuan thought it was true, and quickly asked the boss for help.

"We have a junior in our department who is looking for an internship. She has experience in editing videos and her hobby is photography. I can push her to you."

"Boss, you are my savior!"

After confirming the interview time with the schoolgirl, Wen Yuan went to the store ahead of time to see the new desserts developed by Zhang White.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, Xiaohui told him bad news with a face full of frustration.

"Wen Yuan, the new chef has resigned and left yesterday."

Wen Yuan was startled, and quickly went to the back kitchen, only to find that only Zhang White was busy in front of the counter. The back of his white chef's uniform was soaked with sweat.

"White, haven't you found the right chef yet?"

Wen Yuan was a little worried.

"It's not that easy to find, I can handle it alone, it's fine." Zhang White's face was calm.

"You're the store manager, and you have to take care of the chef's work. How can you be so busy? Or I'll go to the recruitment website—"

Before Wen Yuan could finish speaking, Xiao Hui's exclamation suddenly came from behind. He thought it was something happened in the store, and strode out. What surprised him was that the person standing at the door turned out to be Chen Xingyu.

"Xingyu, why are you back?" Wen Yuan looked very surprised when he saw him, strode over and patted him on the shoulder.

"I heard that you lack a chef. I was really in a hurry before. I'll help you first, and I'll leave when I find a suitable chef."

Wen Yuan was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He pressed Chen Xingyu's shoulder heavily, and his eyes were a little red.

"Xingyu, we all miss you."

"Yeah, chef. You're back." Xiaohui was also full of surprise when she saw him. In the past, when Chen Xingyu was there, the back kitchen was full of laughter and joy, but as soon as Chen Xingyu left, the back kitchen became lifeless. , she was speechless.

Chen Xingyu put down his backpack, pushed open the door of the back kitchen, and saw Zhang Huai standing in front of the sink with his back to him.

"I'm back." The young man's voice seemed calm, but only by listening carefully could he find the trembling inside.

"Well, you are too bad. You were also robbed of business by the new shop opposite. I heard Yuan said that their ingredients are poor and the taste is unpalatable. This kind of shop is not qualified to open opposite us."

Chen Xingyu walked in with a smile, pretending that nothing had happened, and put on his white chef uniform.

"Are these mangoes for mango mousse?" he asked.

Zhang Huai gave a soft hum.

Chen Xingyu nodded, picked up the mango, and started peeling and slicing it skillfully. The two were busy with their own work, and after a while there was only the sound of various instruments running in the kitchen.

Suddenly, Chen Xingyu's hands trembled.

Zhang White was always paying attention to him, and he caught a glimpse of red from the corner of his eye, and the movement in his hand stopped.

It's not a big deal to cut a finger when using the knife. Chen Xingyu put down the knife, grabbed a Band-Aid, and continued to cut the mango pit.

Just before the knife turned, the wrist was grabbed by someone.

"Go to the side to rest, I'll come."

He had come in for so long, this was the first time that Zhang White looked directly into his eyes.

Chen Xingyu looked at his green eyes, didn't say anything, put down the knife.

Wen Yuan saw this scene in the gap at the door, turned around with confidence, and went to the front desk.

On the weekend, Wen Yuan interviewed the school girl recommended by the boss of the dormitory in the dessert shop. The school girl's name is Suzhou, and she is also a computer student. She wears a pair of round glasses and is small and cute. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a computer science.

Suzhou's dream since she was a child was to work in a dessert shop, but her family felt that computers had a future, so she chose this major. As soon as she walked in today, she felt that her girlish heart was inspired, and she couldn't help ordering several desserts. No matter whether the internship is successful or not, in short, you have to feed your stomach first.

"Xuemei, the work content I said is the above. We will settle the salary for you at the market price. Do you have any problems?"

Suzhou wiped the cream from the corners of his mouth with paper, looked at Wen Yuan's handsome face, his eyes lit up, "Senior, no problem at all! This is my dream job, and I can work with a handsome guy like Senior, I'm going to die happy!"

Wen Yuan smiled embarrassedly. At this time, Zhang White and Chen Xingyu came out of the back kitchen. Suzhou saw them, their eyes brightened, and they let out a wow sigh.

Wen Yuan smiled, introduced the identities of the two to her, and said, "You want to photograph not only me, but also them, how about it? Are you more motivated?"

Suzhou nodded vigorously, and couldn't wait to say, "I can come to work now, no problem at all, I guarantee that all of you in my camera are beautiful!"

Suzhou came to the interview with camera equipment. She did what she said. After passing the interview, she put the camera in the back kitchen and began to shoot at the people at work.

Zhang White is not used to facing the camera and doesn't like Suzhou focusing on his face.

"You don't need to photograph me, just photograph what I make." Zhang White looked a little serious when he spoke.

Suzhou thought that this handsome mixed-race guy should have a good temper, but he didn't expect the handsome guy to be so serious when he started to work.

"Your name is Xiao Su, right? It's okay, come and shoot me." Chen Xingyu beckoned to him.

Suzhou's eyes lit up, and he walked over with the camera on his back and collected materials on the spot.

She has always liked food, and when she was filming the process of making desserts, she was drooling.

"Take your saliva and don't drip it on desserts." Zhang White was very disgusted.

"Manager, you look so handsome, it's a pity not to show your face."

Suzhou is a self-acquainted, and soon he was in a hot fight with them in the back kitchen, and he dared to ask anything.

"I don't need to rely on my face to attract customers."

"It's not a question of whether you need it or not, it's what we need in the store." Wen Yuan walked in, picked up the camera in Suzhou and looked at it, and found that the material inside was not bad, especially the light, which was used just right, every shot Desserts are all very tempting.

"Let's do it, Xiao Su, in the early stage, let's make a faceless version first, and pass on the production process of a few desserts to see. If the response is good, we can try to make a faceless version."

"Okay, senior, I'll listen to you all."

She thought that Chen Xingyu had just made mango mousse, and she was a little greedy, so she couldn't help but get close to the good-tempered chef.

"Brother Chen, you just made mango mousse, do you have any leftovers?"

Zhang White watched Xiao Su approach Chen Xingyu, Junxiu frowned slightly.

"I have cheesecake here, do you want it?"

"Manager, you are so kind!" Suzhou hurried over.

To work here, she doesn't charge any money, as long as she can give her some leftovers every day.

Seeing this scene, Wen Yuan smiled silently.

"Xingyu, let's have a meal together tonight. You finally came back. It just so happens that there are new members in the store. We should get together."

Chen Xingyu nodded, "Okay"

When the store closed in the evening, Wen Yuan ordered two tables at a nearby barbecue restaurant and brought all the staff in the dessert shop over.

Two waiters and assistants sit at a table. Their table is Wen Yuan Xiaohui Suzhou, as well as Zhang White and Chen Xingyu.

Wen Yuan knew that Chen Xingyu's stomach couldn't eat anything too spicy, so he ordered lighter barbecue.

"Xingyu, you are quite similar to our Jin Ran. He can't eat too much food. Every time I want to go out for barbecue with him, he looks disheveled."

Wen Yuan pushed the steamed oysters to his side.

Chen Xingyu smiled and picked up a piece of oyster meat, "Actually, I like to eat barbecue, but my stomach can't stand it."

"Senior, we are having a staff dinner today. You are still showing your love here. It's too cruel to us single dogs!" Suzhou sighed.

She is a cheerful and lively girl. No one at the table talks much, especially the store manager is very silent, so she wants to liven up the atmosphere.

"Senior, what's the point of just eating like this, why don't we play Truth or Dare?"
