Chapter 143: Shangguan’s Temptation (3)
"That's not the case. I never thought you would let any restaurant go down. Even if something happened, I think you would definitely turn the tide and save the restaurant, instead of abandoning this one and running another one." Shangguan Shijin Shaking his head, "As for money, I don't think you are a greedy person. If it's just for money, I think you will take it step by step. At least you won't be in such a hurry to open a second restaurant."

"What do you mean by these words? Are you going to dispel my idea of ​​opening a second restaurant? Why are you doing this?" Gu Xiaobei's tone became a little restless. She really didn't understand why Shangguan Shijin was so aggressive. He had never been so aggressive before. It will be like this, but it cannot be denied that what he said is very reasonable, and also, he understands her very well.

Seeing Gu Xiaobei's agitated expression, the light in Shangguan Shijin's eyes instantly dimmed, he sighed in his heart, and then smiled and said, "I don't mean anything else, and it's even more impossible to dispel your idea of ​​opening a second restaurant. I just want to continue working with you."

Shangguan Shijin felt that with Gu Xiaobei's personality, she would not be in such a hurry to open a branch. She should have a reason for doing so, and he thought it should be Bai Qingli, but she didn't admit it.Although he could probe into the deepest thoughts in her heart, since she wanted to avoid them on purpose, why should he point them out?Breaking the point will only push her into that person's arms, he won't do such a thing.

"Is it just like that?" Gu Xiaobei couldn't believe it, looked carefully at his expression, but saw that he was smiling like a habit, and couldn't see anything else at all.

"Yes, otherwise, what do you think I would think?" Shangguan Shijin smiled casually.

That's right, Shangguan Shijin has no grievances or enmities with her, he only has a cooperative relationship with her, and he doesn't have any thoughts against her. He can only say this because he is worried about the restaurant and the cooperation.Gu Xiaobei was immediately relieved, restrained his expression, and smiled apologetically at Shangguan Shijin: "I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now, after all, it's not easy for us to open this restaurant."

"It's okay, I can understand." Shangguan Shijin smiled and shook his head.

Seeing that Shangguan Shijin didn't care about it, Gu Xiaobei was relieved. After all, Shangguan Shijin was busy with her a lot, and the two of them were still cooperating in the brother-sister restaurant. It's not good to have a gap.

"The ginger soup is ready." At this time, Gu Datian came in with two bowls of ginger soup, gave one of the bowls to Gu Xiaobei, and brought the other bowl to Shangguan Shijin, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shangguan, you have a bowl too." Well, it's very cold outside, and you must have suffered from the cold as you are here as a carriage, drinking this ginger soup will warm your body."

"Yeah, you can drink it too, the ginger soup made by my elder brother is delicious." Gu Xiaobei said with a smile.

"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful." Shangguan Shijin stood up, took the bowl from Gu Datian's hands with both hands, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Gu!"

"You're welcome!" Gu Datian shook his head.

"Brother, where's Little Treasure?" Gu Xiaobei asked with a smile after taking a sip of the ginger soup. She hasn't seen Little Treasure since she came back just now, and she has been thinking about him all the time.

"It's too cold, my third uncle is warming up by the fire in the kitchen. Oh, by the way, the main room is also very cold. Let me go and burn a brazier for you." Gu Datian said in a hurry without waiting for their reaction. ran out.

Shangguan Shijin and Gu Xiaobei looked at Gu Datian's busy figure disappearing at the door, and said enviously, "Your elder brother is so kind to you!" Her younger sister is full of love.

"Yeah, not only the eldest brother, but also the second and third brothers are very kind to me. Sometimes I wonder if I was their daughter in the previous life, so that they can treat me like a daughter in this life. I Isn't this idea ridiculous?" After Gu Xiaobei finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing, after all, these brothers were only a little older than her, but she actually felt this way.

"No, that must be the blessing you cultivated in your previous life." Shangguan Shijin said jokingly.

Gu Xiaobei nodded, yes, maybe it was a blessing she cultivated in her previous life. In the life of the 21st century, although she did not accomplish much, she did not do any major bad things, and she did some good things. , came here and had these brothers who cared for her, maybe this was God's compensation for her kindness.

Shangguan Shijin took a sip of the ginger soup in his hand, looked at Gu Xiaobei and smiled: "It's really delicious!"

"Of course!" Gu Xiaobei nodded proudly, raised the bowl in his hand and drank again.

Shangguan Shijin smiled without saying a word, quietly drinking ginger soup.

Both of them finished the ginger soup, Gu Xiaobei put away the bowl and put it on the table beside him, then sat back on the chair and said with a smile: "Just now you said that you want to cooperate with me, is it about the second restaurant?"

"Yes." Shangguan Shijin nodded, took out two handkerchiefs from his pocket, wiped his mouth with one, and handed the other to Gu Xiaobei.

Looking at the handkerchief stretched out in front of him, the corners of Gu Xiaobei's mouth twitched slightly. Unexpectedly, not only Bai Qingli was carrying two handkerchiefs, but even Shangguan Shijin was like this. Do you guys like to carry more than two handkerchiefs with you? ?

"No need, I have it too." Gu Xiaobei smiled and pulled out a handkerchief from his arms, smiling authentically.

Shangguan Shijin smiled slightly, put away the handkerchief in his hand, and said with a smile: "I intend to continue to cooperate with you in the second restaurant, do you want to?"

"Didn't you just say that it would be better for the first restaurant to gain a foothold before opening the second one? Why would you want to cooperate with me for the second one? If it's because we cooperated with the first restaurant, you want to cooperate with me For the second restaurant, you don’t need to do this. Even if I open a second restaurant, I will run it by myself. It has nothing to do with the first restaurant and will not affect the first restaurant’s business. And the second restaurant I don't plan to open it under the name of Brothers and Sisters Restaurant either." Gu Xiaobei avoided answering.

"I really think it's not good for you to open a second restaurant without a solid foundation, but it doesn't have a big impact on me, and it's precisely because I cooperated with you in the first restaurant and felt that you managed it well that I wanted to continue. I cooperated with you." Shangguan Shijin said indifferently.

"You have a good plan! However, it is not impossible for you to cooperate with me. I have one condition, that is, to open a second restaurant in your name." Gu Xiaobei felt a little guilty after finishing speaking.

Shangguan Shijin is the son of a rich family, money is not a big problem for him, even if her second restaurant opens too fast and has bad effects, it will not affect him.But if a restaurant is opened in his name, then no matter whether anyone will attack the second restaurant because of exclusion or hatred, they will look at Shangguan Shijin and will not do it at will. Her words take advantage of Shangguan Shijin It's cheaper.
