After the two classes in the afternoon, Shao Le did not go back to the dormitory. He went to order a cake for Lin Keke as soon as possible.
Then we started chatting with the boss and his wife in the cake shop. The couple were both young. They had gone to university in Beijing before, and then worked in Beijing for several years. They felt that the pressure was too great, so they gritted their teeth and gave up everything. I spent all my savings to open this cake shop. Fortunately, there are many schools nearby, so the business of the cake shop has been good, and the life of the young couple has been relatively smooth.
"Shao Le, what's the name of your classmate? Let me write her a happy birthday on the cake?"
"Trouble?"
"What's the trouble?"
Shao Le smiled and said: "Her name is Chen Shuting, just write Shuting. For lady, add a graceful Ting next to the character female."
"I know, Tingmei's Tingmei. When I was fifteen or sixteen years old, I could watch Tingmei's advertisements all day long."
After the male boss finished speaking, the boss's wife stepped forward, grabbed his ears, laughed and scolded him: "You are so shameless, saying this in front of others."
"We are all adults. If there is anything we can't say, please let go of your hands and don't let your little brother see the joke."
The landlady rolled her eyes at him, and when she saw another customer coming in from outside, she quickly went to entertain them.
Shao Le really didn't understand what the boss was saying, but judging from the conversation between the landlady and the boss, the Tingmei advertisement the boss mentioned was probably not a serious advertisement.
"Brother Long, the business in your store is good. There are so many people in the afternoon."
"It's not bad. Anyway, I make no less money than I did before at work, but it's still too difficult to really buy an apartment in the capital."
"You have to take it step by step slowly."
"That too."
Brother Long is very skillful in his movements. After a while, a beautifully shaped cake is ready.
"Okay, let me find you a box to put it in?"
"Okay." Shao Le took out his mobile phone and was about to scan the QR code to pay: "Brother Long, how much is it?"
"Hey, what's the money? It's just a cake."
"That's not okay. One size equals one size. Besides, this cake is not ordered for me. Just give me a discount."
Brother Long smiled and said: "You are not very old, but you speak in one way. I don't know who you learned it from. Forget it, just give me two hundred."
Shao Le scanned the QR code and paid and left in no hurry. There wouldn't be any customers in the store at this time. Even if there were customers, he wouldn't be able to entertain anyone else if they didn't come, so he just played with Brother Long in the cake shop. The cowhide.
In the evening, the other three people in the dormitory finally came. Seeing that the shop was not open, the sharp-eyed Jin Mingxuan immediately spotted Shao Le in the cake shop.
Three people also walked in from outside.
"Shao Le, what are you doing here?"
"Let's chat with Brother Long and order a cake by the way."
"Order a cake? Is it your birthday today?"
"For Chen Shuting's birthday, I booked it for Coco."
Jin Mingxuan smiled and said: "Brother Long, my birthday is next month. I will order a cake then. Will there be a discount?"
"Yes, I will give you the cost price directly."
Shao Le said hurriedly: "Brother Long, just kill him severely. Anyway, he won't be able to spend the money he earns."
Ma Yuan also helped: "Yes, Brother Long, he doesn't have a girlfriend, and he has a lot of money."
"Fuck you!"
The landlady saw off the two guests, walked up and said with a smile: "The relationship between the four of you in your dormitory is really good, I really envy you."
"There's nothing to envy in this. I also envy you and Brother Long."
"What do you envy us for?"
Jin Mingxuan quickly humbly asked for advice: "I envy you for your good relationship. Brother Long, as a married person, can you give us some advice on finding a girlfriend."
Brother Long laughed loudly and kept waving his hands: "I don't know, don't ask me. My wife and I are in the same boat, and I don't know anything about romance. If you want advice, go to Shao Le, he is not you." The first among them to find a girlfriend?"
"That's because he's handsome."
Brother Long smiled and said: "Then you are wrong. Even if Shao Le is not handsome, he will definitely find a girlfriend faster than you."
The landlady also nodded in agreement: "Indeed."
"Forget it, I'm happy today. As someone who already has a partner, I'll give you six pieces of advice. You three should take a small notebook and write it down."
Shao Le turned around and said with a smile:
"First, when looking for a partner, find someone who can make you happy."
"Second, find someone good-looking."
"Third, find someone with a good personality."
"Fourth, find someone you can be with every day."
"Fifth, find someone with a compatible personality."
"sixth……"
Shao Le deliberately lengthened his voice.
Jin Mingxuan and Wei Tao asked in unison: "What is the sixth one?"
Shao Le replied: "Sixth, never let the five of them meet."
"???"
Shao Le stood up, picked up the cake and said with a smile: "Brother Long, see you later, come to our store for a drink when you have time."
"Okay."
After Shao Le left, Ma Yuan, Wei Tao, and Jin Mingxuan were stunned for a long time before they could react. In the end, they all cursed and followed him out.
The landlady smiled and said: "I don't know how many girls in school will fall in love with Shao Le."
Brother Long looked longingly: "Yes."
The landlady stretched out her hand and pinched Brother Long's stomach hard, and cursed: "What are you dreaming about here?"
…
Before dark.
Lin Keke went to the store to pick up the cake from Shao Le, and then left with her three roommates.
Chen Shuting took them to a steak and barbecue restaurant with a particularly high online rating. The restaurant was decorated in a typical European style and there were quite a lot of customers inside.
After the four people sat down, it didn't take long for the waiter to bring the dining utensils.
Looking at the knives and forks on the plate on the table, Lin Keke felt a little panicked. Chen Shuting saw that Lin Keke was a little embarrassed. She didn't say anything, but deliberately pretended not to understand and asked: "Do you hold the knife in the left hand and the fork in the right hand? Or should I hold the fork in my left hand and the knife in my right hand? This is my first time eating steak."
Li Zhaojun said cooperatively: "It should be the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right hand."
Chen Shuting and Li Zhaojun's family conditions should be pretty good, and they don't even know how to hold a knife and fork. They said this, obviously taking care of Lin Keke. Yu Jiawei also understood everything and quickly said with a smile: "No matter how he holds it, Anyway, there are only four of us, so it’s okay to eat with chopsticks.”
"Ha ha."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Lin Ke was not a fool. She knew that her three roommates were taking care of her, but she didn't say anything. She just laughed along with them.
Not long after, four steaks that were still steaming were brought to the table by the waiter.
"It looks good."
"Stop looking, let's get started."
"good!"
“It tastes really good.”
"It's delicious."
"Coco, what do you think?"
"tasty."
"Then you have to finish eating."
"Um."
While the four of them were eating, they chatted about some gossip and interesting things that had happened recently. They were all very happy after finishing the dinner.
After eating and drinking, Chen Shuting pointed to the cake on the table and said, "How about taking the cake to the dormitory?"
"Well, I can't eat it now either."
"Then let's go back now?"
"OK."
But at this time, Lin Keke, who had been hesitant for a long time, finally couldn't help but said: "Shu Ting, can you order another steak for me?"
The three roommates were all curious: "Coco, aren't you full?"
Lin Keke quickly shook his head: "No, no, I just think this steak is delicious. I want to pack a portion and take it back to... for the squad leader to try."
