Chapter 270

The store owner looked at the handsome young man and woman in front of him with a smile on his face, "Okay, girl! I'll wrap it up for you right now, wait a moment."

Zhou Chenyu stood aside, staring at the store's deft movements, and asked, "Shop, how much money is there in total?"

The store owner raised his head while he was busy, glanced at Yang Xi beside him, and replied with a smile, "Girl, it's a total of 32 yuan. But I see that you are unfamiliar. It must be your first time buying something in our store, right? I will give you the whole thing. It only costs [-] yuan." Ten will do it.”

Zhou Chenyu looked at the store owner with a kind face, and his mouth felt like honey, "Thank you then. In the future, when I buy shortbread, you will be my first choice, and I won't go anywhere else."

"Good good."

Yang Xi listened to the two people complimenting each other back and forth, quietly raised the corners of his lips, and then replaced the horizontal knife with his left hand, leaving his right hand free.

Zhou Chenyu saw his movements and took out the silver one step ahead of him, saying dullly: "Yang Xi, I bought this for someone to take home to greet their parents. You don't need to pay for it. Store, here it is."

Yang Xi closed his eyes, followed her with his eyes, and asked tentatively, "Greetings to his parents? Chen Yu, whose parents are you greeting?"

"Why are you asking so clearly?" Zhou Chenyu answered casually, and Yang Xi looked away uneasily, "I was just asking casually."

Just ask?

Zhou Chenyu looked at him, gradually smiled, and pointed at Chen Ping'an who was waiting in the distance, "Nuo, I bought this for him. He is my future business partner, I have to win over him."

business partner?

Yang Xi looked up and saw a man hiding in the crowd with his head lowered. He looked familiar and said, "It turns out to be him."

Zhou Chenyu looked at his muttering expression, stared straight at him, and asked with a half-smile, "Yang Xi, who do you think you are?"

Yang Xi met her questioning eyes and admitted hesitantly: "I didn't think he was someone important to you."

Zhou Chenyu raised his eyebrows, with a smile in his eyes, "Oh, can I think that you are jealous of that person?"

"Me!" Yang Xi got excited when he spoke, but quickly regained his composure and refused to admit it, "I didn't."

The shopkeeper listened to the conversation between the two, snickered, and replied: "Girl, the shortbread you want has been packed for you, here it is."

"Thank you." Zhou Chenyu smiled and took the shortbread from the store. Looking at the bewildered man beside him, he coaxed him and said: "Boss Yang, that young man over there is rushing back to the countryside to celebrate the New Year. I need You have to give these boxes of shortbread cookies to that young master first. Your Excellency has a lot of them, can you wait for me for a moment? I will explain them to you one by one later?"

Yang Xi glanced at Chen Ping'an over there, looked away, looked at her, nodded and said with a smile: "Then go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

"Okay, then I'm going. I'll go back quickly."

Zhou Chenyu watched him finish speaking, and immediately carried two boxes of shortbread cookies, walked through the dense crowd, and walked to Chen Pingan, "Ping An, I bought these for you."

"Bought for me?" Chen Ping'an glanced nervously over there, then stared at the thing handed over, "Chen Yu, why are you doing this?" "Oh, why are there so many?" Zhou Chenyu looked at him. Ji Ji refused to accept it and quickly put the things into his hands, "Aren't we going to open a joint store soon? Then we can be considered friends. You are going back to the countryside to celebrate the New Year, and I don't have anything to give you, so I just bought a few. I give you a box of shortbread cookies as a greeting gift to your uncle and aunt. When you get home, say hello to these two elderly people for me."

Chen Ping'an looked at the shortbread in his hand, tears overflowing from his eyes, thinking that he had worked hard in Qingshui Town for several years, either fighting wits and courage with his peers, or being rejected by others because he was too weak and pale-faced. No one had ever been so sincere. Treat him so well.

He held the shortbread tightly, wiped away his tears with his sleeves, and sniffed, "Chen Yu. Then let me thank you first on behalf of my parents."

Zhou Chenyu pursed his lips and smiled, "Thank you for what? Okay, your fellow villagers are still waiting for you. You should quickly join them and go home to see your parents."

"Okay, I'll leave now." Chen Ping'an carefully took the shortbread in his hand. He saw the man in the distance with his peripheral vision, suddenly came back to his senses, and asked anxiously: "Chen Yu, you and... Team Leader Yang Why do you look so familiar? Do you know each other?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at him with an expression of wanting to ask but not daring to ask, then looked back at Yang Xi.

Yang Xi looked at her across the vast sea of ​​people, raising the corners of his mouth.

She laughed, "Yes, we know each other."

"Ah?" Chen Pingan thought that every time he saw an official, he would have to say a few words, wouldn't they all be listened to.He became nervous, "Chen Yu, what about you, Team Leader Yang is your eldest brother? No, your surname is Zhou and his surname is Yang, so they can't be brothers and sisters. Then he is your cousin?"

Cousin?Zhou Chenyu looked at him, smiled and shook his head, "No, guess again."

Not cousins?
Chen Pingan secretly raised his eyes and saw that his always fearful and timid Team Leader Yang actually smiled.He suddenly looked away and looked at the smiling woman in front of him. A ridiculous but reasonable thought exploded in his mind, "You... Chen Yu, you and Team Leader Yang, you..."

Zhou Chenyu saw his face turned pale with fright, so he suppressed his smile and refused to tell him.

She quickly pushed him and said, "Okay, aren't you in a hurry to go home? If you don't leave, it will be too late. What are you doing standing still? Take him away quickly."

Several fellow villagers heard her words and hurriedly sent two people up to grab Chen Pingan, "Okay, let's go quickly. Aren't you in a hurry to go home?"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't drag me. I'll go. I'll go by myself. Isn't it okay for me to go?" Chen Ping'an carefully protected the shortbread in his arms and suppressed his curiosity, "Chen Yu, then I will Let's go, see you after the Lantern Festival."

The man behind him was still waiting, and Zhou Chenyu was also a little anxious, "Well, let's go, it's time for me to go back."

Chen Ping'an withdrew his gaze and joined his fellow villagers, "Hey, let's go."

Zhou Chenyu watched him turn around and hurried back to Yang Xi, "Everyone else has left, so stop looking."

Yang Xi held the Hengdao, folded his hands across his chest, looked at the people leaving, and said with a clear smile:
"I finally remembered. The man's name was Chen Ping'an. He was a foreigner. He came to Qingshui Town two years ago to run a rouge business. He didn't understand the rules when he first came here, and he insisted on not leaving. He was beaten by me. The guy below kicked him out a few times. How did you get to know him?"

Zhou Chenyu looked at him and defended Chen Ping'an, saying, "Oh, no wonder he is so afraid of you people wearing blue clothes. It turns out you have had such a holiday."

Yang Xi opened his eyes and explained, "How can that be regarded as a holiday? You see, he has behaved according to the rules now, how can we still find trouble with him?"
