Start a mysterious island

Welcome. The waitress wearing a uniform embroidered with small floral flowers greeted the two guests who entered the store with a smile.

Are there any seats in the store? Lin Li looked around the restaurant full of customers and asked the waitress in front of him.

Only private rooms are left.

Okay, then give us a private room.

You two, please follow me. The waitress led Lin Li and Su Yue to the second floor of the restaurant and took them to a small private room.

Is this private room okay?

Can.

After Lin Li and Su Yue sat down, the waitress took two menus and handed them to them.

This white chicken looks good, let's have one! Su Yue opened the menu in her hand, pointed at the picture of a dish, and said to Lin Li sitting next to her.

Yes. Lin Li nodded and looked at the waitress standing in front of him, Please give us a piece of white chopped chicken, and also a piece of vinegared fish fillet.

The waitress took out a machine from her pocket, operated it a few times, and recorded the two dishes Lin Li ordered.

Let's have some of this Mapo Tofu, and another one of boiled beef. Lin Li looked at the menu and added two more dishes. After speaking, he turned to look at Su Yue beside him.

Let's have fried water spinach, and... let's have loofah soup. Su Yue added another dish and one soup. She and Lin Li ordered five dishes and one soup in total, which was a lot for two people.

Do you need anything else? the waitress asked after writing down all the dishes she ordered.

It's not needed for now. If it's not enough, we'll add more. Lin Li said. The waitress nodded, then left the private room and went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes for the two of them.

Putting the menu aside, Su Yue took the teapot from the table and poured a cup of tea for Lin Li and herself.

Lin Li picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Looking at Su Yue with a slight smile on her face, he put down the teacup in his hand and asked.

You went to the capital for a physical examination, and the result was that there was nothing wrong with you.

Now that a few days have passed, your body is indeed no longer abnormal, right?

Su Yue, who was drinking tea, heard Lin Li's inquiry and turned to look at him. Seeing Lin Li's face full of concern, the corners of her mouth raised, revealing a very happy smile.

Don't worry, I've been eating well and sleeping well these past few days, and I haven't had any abnormalities in my body.

Lin Li nodded, If you feel uncomfortable again in the future, you can call me...

Su Yue said hmm, with a smile on her face and crooked eyebrows. It could be seen that she was in a very good mood at the moment.

Today is the last day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, and you will start working tomorrow.

This time you bought so many local specialties in the capital, many of them are going to be given to your colleagues in the office, right? Lin Li asked, thinking that the suitcase he was pulling for Su Yue just now was quite heavy.

Yes! Su Yue stretched out her hand, pinched her fingers as slender as green onions, and counted.

In addition to giving them to my colleagues in the office, I also prepared some for a few old aunts and uncles in the community who usually give me the vegetables they grow and the fish they catch, as well as my old classmate who works at the flower shop. …”

Lin Li heard Su Yue mention her old classmate Wang Ling who had a flower shop, and remembered that that girl was very unlucky. When the business was booming, there was road construction in front of the door, so the flower shop had to temporarily close its doors.

The flower shop opened by your old classmate, has the road in front of it not been repaired yet?

Su Yue shook her head and said helplessly, My old classmate is very unlucky. The road would have been repaired in another week and her flower shop could reopen by then.

As a result, the construction team building the road was careless and accidentally dug up some facilities buried underground. Now the road construction time will be extended.

The construction team building the road was too careless! When building the road, they dug up other facilities buried underground...Now that we know the road, how long will it take to repair it? Lin Li was curious. asked.

Su Yue recalled what she learned while chatting with her old classmates and said to Lin Li.

I heard from Wang Ling that repairs to some facilities buried underground will be completed before road construction can begin. The specific time for the road to be repaired may not be until the end of this month, which is before the National Day holiday.

The Mid-Autumn Festival holiday has just ended. Thinking about it, the National Day holiday will be in just over half a month. It gives people the feeling that there are many holidays. Lin Li said with a smile.

The National Day holiday is seven days. Do you have any plans to travel? Su Yue asked.

Now I want to make myself stronger and hunt exotic animals as long as I have time. Holidays and other things are no different to me than usual... Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then he told Su Yue that he did not go out for travel. plan of.

It's a seven-day National Day holiday. It's boring to stay at home. You can find a place to travel! Su Yue advised.

On a long holiday like this, there are a lot of people traveling, and the slightly famous scenic spots are crowded with people. If I go to be crowded with those tourists, I might as well stay at home and play games. Faced with Su Yue's persuasion, Lin Li found a Reason for rejection.

When I travel during the long vacation, there are quite a lot of tourists at the scenic spots, but I haven't been crowded by others... Su Yue recalled the past travels with her parents and said.

What about you? Will you go back to your hometown to travel with your parents during this year's National Day holiday like in previous years? Lin Li asked.

Yeah. Su Yue nodded. She went on a trip with her parents during the National Day holiday. They had been doing this for so many years. It was considered an essential trip for their family every year.

Where are you and your parents going to travel this year? Lin Li asked casually.

I haven't decided yet. Where to travel? My mother usually decides where to travel. When she decides where to travel, she will tell me and my dad that we will follow her, Su Yue said.

oh.

Have you been running online taxis to deliver goods recently?

Huh? Lin Li didn't expect that Su Yue would suddenly change the subject, and the question would be about something he had made up before. He was stunned.

Su Yue picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, looked at Lin Li's stunned expression, and asked.

Ah what? Judging from your reaction, it seems that you feel tired and quit, right?

Um... Lin Li came to his senses and replied with a smile, I'm doing it, but not as frequently as at the beginning.

You! When I introduced you to the job, you said nothing and didn't go.

Then I bought a van and started driving online ride-hailing services.

I thought that since you decided to do such a job, you should be able to do it for at least a year, but I didn’t expect it! It's only been a few months and I'm starting to slack off. Su Yue said helplessly.

From her current point of view, it is very bad that several months have passed since Lin Li graduated this year and he still does not have a stable job.

Even though he has two houses in his hands, he also has a guaranteed deposit that is considered quite large by ordinary people.

Moreover, this kind of working behavior of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days is not what a young man who has just graduated from college should be like.

Lin Li saw the helplessness on Su Yue's face and could probably guess what the other party was thinking. He raised his hand and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Lin Li, although you now own two houses and have a million deposits in your bank account, inflation is so fierce now!

Once you sit back and have nothing, you will find within a few years that the one million deposits in your account are not as durable as you thought, and cannot afford the leisurely life you imagined.

Su Yue persuaded Lin Li sincerely, hoping that he could work seriously and not just sit back and eat nothing.

...

In addition to the two houses I own now, not counting other things, the deposit in my account already exceeds 60 million.

With such a sum of money, even if I do nothing from now on, my life will be quite comfortable.

Facing Su Yue's sincere persuasion, Lin Li muttered to himself.

Now he couldn't tell Su Yue what was in his heart. Faced with Su Yue's persuasion, he could only smile and deal with it.

I know, I will work hard to take orders from now on and won't slack off anymore.

Su Yue looked at Lin Li suspiciously, as if she didn't believe that Lin Li would work hard to do online ride-hailing work in the future.

Please, can you give me some trust? Don't look at me like this, it will hurt my ambition... Lin Li said with a smile.

If you are enterprising, I don't have to be like an old lady, trying to persuade you over and over again. Su Yue's red lips opened slightly and she mumbled in a low voice.

What did you say? Lin Li asked, not hearing what Su Yue said clearly.

I didn't say anything. Since you said so, you have to work hard!

Yes, yes, I will work hard. Lin Li said with a smile, while adding in his heart... I will work hard to hunt exotic beasts to make myself stronger.

If you think it's too tiring to do a job like online ride-hailing and hauling goods, and you don't want to do it, you can tell me and I'll ask a friend to find you an easier job. In terms of salary... Su Yue hadn't said anything yet. After finishing, Lin Li spoke.

Okay, don't talk about my work anymore. Now I have free working hours, I think it's pretty good... and I make a lot of money. Lin Li felt a little dizzy when he heard Su Yue talk about introducing the work, and hurriedly interrupted her.

Hmph... Seeing Lin Li decisively rejecting her offer to introduce him to a job, Su Yue felt a little unhappy and couldn't help but snort.

At this time, the door to the private room was opened, and the leaving waitress walked in with her colleagues carrying dishes one after another.

You two, please take your time. If you need anything else, you can call us. The waiter left after placing all the dishes on the table.

After flying for several hours and not having lunch, I must be very hungry now. Come on, let's take a sip of soup first. Lin Li enthusiastically served Su Yue a bowl of loofah soup.

Su Yue, who was a little unhappy at first, immediately felt better after seeing Lin Li's attitude. She picked up the spoon and took a sip of the soup.

How's the loofah soup in this restaurant? Lin Li asked.

It tastes good. Su Yue replied.

Try these vinegar fish fillets again. Lin Li added some vinegar fish fillets to Su Yue's bowl. After seeing her taste it, he added some boiled beef.

Okay! I'll just do it myself. You should be very hungry too. Eat quickly! Under Lin Li's considerate attack of picking up food, Su Yue completely forgot about the unhappy things just now.

Lin Li felt relieved when he saw that Su Yue's mood had completely changed.

He repeatedly rejected Su Yue's kindness in introducing work, but he was actually very embarrassed.

If he was still the same as he was a few months ago, just an ordinary person.

Although he has awakened to spirituality, he cannot become a practitioner in this life. In that case, there is a high probability that he will accept Su Yue's kindness and work at the place she introduced.

Why are you dazed? Eat quickly! This white chicken is very delicious, try it quickly. Su Yue saw Lin Li dazed, called him, then picked up a chicken leg from the plate and put it in his bowl inside.

Oh. After coming back to his senses, Lin Li picked up the chicken legs, dipped them in the sauce, and took a bite. He was immediately amazed by the delicious taste of the chicken.

This chicken is really delicious.

The ingredients used to make the chicken in this restaurant are good, that's why it tastes like this. Su Yue commented with a smile.

Two days ago, she attended a banquet with her parents in the capital. There was also a dish of white chopped chicken on the table. The quality of the ingredients was far superior to the quality of the ingredients in this restaurant.

I'll go to the market later to look for three-yellow chicken, and I'll make it at home. Lin Li finished eating the chicken legs, turned to look at Su Yue, who was eating boiled beef, and said.

You make it at home? Su Yue swallowed the food in her mouth and chuckled, You have never made this chicken before. If you make it at home, it will most likely not taste good.

... Lin Li fell silent after hearing this. He knew how good his craftsmanship was. If he cooked something he had never done before for the first time, the final outcome would definitely not be good. He knew this without even thinking about it.

Su Yue saw that Lin Li was silenced by what she said, and immediately smiled, Go to the vegetable market and buy three-yellow chicken. Come to my house and I will teach you how to cook this dish.

Have you ever made this dish before?

I've done it before! This dish is quite simple to make. The main thing is that the quality of the ingredients is good.

Okay, then I look forward to Chef Su taking action... Lin Li praised.

What this chef does will definitely be top quality... Su Yue said proudly, with an aura that was invincible in the world.

The two of them ate and chatted in the private room. After more than an hour, the two people walked out of the private room after eating and drinking.

Although the portion of five dishes and one soup was quite large for two people, they still finished it.

Of course, most of the food went into Lin Li's stomach. After all, Su Yue didn't eat much. No matter how hungry she was, she could only eat that amount.
