By the time Luo Weiru and the others came out of the hospital, it was already 8:30 pm. Luo Weiru's stomach was growling with hunger.
" Are we going back now, or..." Luo Weiru said, but her eyes were fixed on the western restaurant less than 500 meters away from the hospital.
Mo Xunjie glanced at Luo Weiru and knew what she was thinking.""Let's go eat. You must be hungry."
Mo Xunjie had not planned to go back after bandaging his wound. Since Luo Weiru was hungry, he would go eat. He was also hungry.
The name of this western restaurant was translated as Beauty under the Moon. It was quite romantic and the decoration style was very petty.
The restaurant was also a couple's restaurant. The lighting design was very dim, and the dining tables were all imitation French style. Compared to a formal western restaurant, the dining tables here were much smaller. To put it bluntly, this restaurant was the representative of the atmosphere.
Luo Weiru was a girl after all, so she valued the atmosphere more. Mo Xunjie's heart skipped a beat when he saw the endless stream of couples in the restaurant.
As soon as Luo Weiru and Mo Xunjie entered the western restaurant, a waiter in a fitting uniform stood in front of Mo Xunjie and Luo Weiru to help them take their seats.
"Hello, welcome to Beauty Under the Moon. This is our menu.”The waiter handed the menu to Mo Xunjie and Luo Weiru.
Luo Weiru flipped through the menu. There were some simple and home-cooked western dishes on the menu. Salads, steaks, soup, pizza, desserts, everything was there. It was like a hodgepodge.
Luo Weiru didn't think too much about it. She ordered a Caesar salad and borscht, as well as black pepper steak and spaghetti bolognese. The drink was the store's special mango juice, and the dessert was a piece of ice cream tiramisu.。
Mo Xunjie ordered a seafood salad, cream mushroom soup, and Spanish seafood stewed rice with a glass of red wine.
The speed of serving food in this western restaurant was relatively fast. In a short while, the salad was already served on the table. Unlike the small appetizers in the western restaurants that Luo Weiru had seen before, this western restaurant simply piled up a large bowl of salad as if it was free. Luo Weiru looked at the two large bowls of salad on the table and thought to herself, Could it be that this shop won by quantity?
Just these two plates of salad were enough for girls with smaller appetites.
When Mo Xunjie saw the salad on the table, he was a little dumbfounded. This was more than four times the amount of salad he usually ate in those famous western restaurants. Moreover, the amount was so much that Mo Xunjie couldn't help but wonder if the ingredients were not fresh.
When Luo Weiru poked the vegetables in the salad into her mouth, the sweet taste of the vegetables immediately swept across the tip of her tongue. The salad dressing that was just right brought out the original sweet taste of the vegetables.
Mo Xunjie's seafood salad wasn't any worse. The prawns were crystal clear, and it was sweet and chewy. It wasn't inferior to the dishes made by the chefs of high-end Western restaurants.
Then, the soup was served. The waiter had just removed the lid when the sweet and sour taste of borscht instantly filled the air, seducing Luo Weiru so much that she was drooling. After tasting it, the taste was even better. It was sweet and sour, and the beef was already very soft, reaching the effect of melting in the mouth.
Mo Xunjie's cream mushroom soup was also very delicious. He couldn't wait for the main course to be served.
Just as Mo Xunjie and Luo Weiru were looking forward to it, the handsome waiter finally served their main dishes. Steak, spaghetti, and seafood stew.
Mo Xunjie no longer had any doubts about the ingredients and ingredients of this western restaurant. Mo Xunjie, who frequented all kinds of high-end restaurants, could tell at first glance that the vegetables were organic. Even the meat and seafood should have been freshly caught and sent over after being slaughtered. Otherwise, it would not be so delicious.
Luo Weiru was even more impressed by this lavishly decorated restaurant. It wasn't as luxurious as other professional restaurants, but it conquered the customers with its outstanding taste, making them deeply intoxicated by the delicious food.
However, why were there so few customers here when there was such delicious food? One had to know that shops with such a smell would usually be filled with long lines. It was impossible for them to be so free.
Luo Weiru looked around. There were only five or six couples in this huge western restaurant. She really didn't know how this restaurant maintained its high quality.
Mo Xunjie had obviously thought of this as well. He called the waiter over and pretended to ask casually. The waiter was very familiar with him and probably liked to chat up customers. Very quickly, he told him everything he knew.
It turned out that the owner of this restaurant was a middle-aged man who used to be the head chef of a Michelin restaurant abroad. After he saved enough money, he decided to return to China and open his own restaurant to commemorate his wife who took care of his children and parents at home during his years abroad. The chef's cooking skills were very good and he had passed down his skills. If nothing went wrong, his restaurant should have become a well-known restaurant in Rong City. However, the chef insisted on the high quality of the ingredients and refused to raise the price. After a long time, the restaurant began to fall into a situation where it could not make ends meet.
At first, the head chef's wife comforted him and encouraged him to change his mind. Anyway, the customers couldn't tell, but the head chef didn't listen. When the head chef's wife saw that the head chef was so stubborn that he even invested all his family savings into the restaurant, making life very difficult for the family, she couldn't stand the fact that the head chef valued the restaurant more than she cared about her parents and children. In a fit of anger, she divorced the head chef and took the child to another city.
The head chef was depressed for a few days because of this, but he soon put all his energy into the restaurant again. However, the popularity of the restaurant did not increase much.
"I'm afraid this restaurant will close down in two months. He really didn't know what the head chef was thinking. He didn't even have enough money to buy those expensive ingredients, yet he still did this. What a fool.”The waiter complained. There was little work here, and there were not many customers. Most of the people who came were couples, so it was very easy to work here. The waiter thought that if this shop closed down in the future, he would inevitably have to find a new job. He could not help but feel a little resentful.
Mo Xunjie heard a business opportunity from the waiter's words. The chef of this restaurant was quite good, and the location of the restaurant was not bad. It was just that it was too far from the city center. Previously, it was a good idea to set it as a couple's restaurant, but it did not consider the geographical location. Very few couples would set their date location here. It would be much better if they could change it to another restaurant.
Mo Xunjie was indeed the heir of Mo's Enterprise Company. After just one meal, he had already started to think about how he could provide financial support for this restaurant and turn it into a themed restaurant for the rich. He believed that even in this remote place, business would be good.
"Does your boss have any intention of looking for investors?”Mo Xunjie's sudden words caused the attendant to say,""Why not? However, none of the industrial companies are optimistic about our store. It seems that we can only go bankrupt.”The waiter had a long face.
Mo Xunjie thought for a while and said to the waiter,""I want to see your boss right now.”
The waiter was stunned when he saw the drastic change in Mo Xunjie's aura. However, his body followed Mo Xunjie's order and ran towards the kitchen.
This restaurant was opened by the head chef, who was also the boss.
The waiter ran into the dining room in a panic and said to the chef who was still preparing desserts,"Boss, there's a guest outside who wants to see you.”
Lin Hai frowned. Could it be that there was a mistake in today's dish?
Lin Hai turned off the fire, wiped his hands clean, and whispered to the attendant named Wang Yuan beside him,""Bring me there."
Wang Yuan sighed and led Lin Hai to Mo Xunjie.
Luo Weiru curiously looked at the head chef who was wearing a white chef's uniform and a tall white hat. His name was written on his nameplate: Overgrown Forest.
"Hello, I'm the head chef and owner of this restaurant. May I know what you need?”Wang Yuan's brows were tightly knitted together as his gaze swept across Luo Weiru and Mo Xunjie's plates. Most of the dishes on the table had already been eaten, and it didn't look like they didn't suit his appetite. Or did he find something else in the food?
"I am Mo Xunjie. I believe you have heard of my name.”Mo Xunjie didn't even get up. He dabbed his lips with a white napkin and said slowly,""I'm very interested in your restaurant.”
"Interested?" Lin Hai repeated dully. Everyone in Rong City had probably heard of Mo Xunjie. He was the heir of the Mo Corporation and was a rich second-generation heir worth tens of billions. Then, Lin Hai turned his gaze to the woman who was having dinner with Mo Xunjie. She should be the wife of this Mo family's heir, the famous and popular actress Luo Weiru?
Lin Hai's gaze swept across Luo Weiru's young and beautiful face for a moment, but he quickly restrained his thoughts.
Mo Xunjie noticed this. Even Mo Xunjie had to admit that Luo Weiru was indeed very beautiful. It was rare for Lin Hai to be able to retract his thoughts so quickly when he was observing a beauty at such a close distance. This was enough to show that Lin Hai was a very attentive person.
"Yes, I'm very interested in your shop. Or rather, I have the intention to work with you.”Mo Xunjie didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Cooperation? Do you mean you want to buy my restaurant?”Lin Hai's originally calm expression suddenly changed."That's impossible. I won't sell this restaurant. Not even your Mo Corporation.”Lin Hai said desperately. The muscles on his face trembled, but his eyes were firm.
"What if I say that Mo Industries will do everything they can to buy your restaurant? You can also be the head chef of this restaurant.”Mo Xunjie narrowed his eyes and threw out a tempting condition.
"I don't accept it." Lin Hai straightened his neck and said. Thank you for your kindness. This Western restaurant is my life! I will defend her with my life.”
The smile on Mo Xunjie's face deepened.""Don't you want your wife to change her mind? As far as I know, didn't your wife break up with you because you spent all your savings on the restaurant? Now, once Mo Corporation takes over your restaurant, you can continue to be the head chef without taking any risks. Isn't that great?”
"No, I can't! My restaurant has my own persistence. If I give the restaurant to the Mo Corporation, the Mo Corporation will only turn it into something like the other chain restaurants. In that case, so what if I become the head chef? I won't agree to your request. Don't waste your time.”Lin Hai's attitude was firm.
Luo Weiru didn't think that a meal could cause such a big scene. She was afraid that Mo Xunjie would really force Lin Hai to give up the restaurant to Mo Corporation. She couldn't help but try to persuade him, but she was stopped by Mo Xunjie's fierce gaze.
Luo Weiru could only shake her head at Hai Lin, indicating that she was unable to help.
As time passed, the two sides were in a stalemate and refused to take a step back.
At this moment, Mo Xunjie's lips suddenly curled into a smile.""Head Chef, don't worry! The Mo Corporation will not buy your shop.”
Lin Hai's tense body relaxed instantly, but he did not expect Mo Xunjie to follow up and say,""But I hope you can let me join your restaurant and become a shareholder! I will only take the shares and not participate in the business. I will also provide you with the funds you need in my own name. What do you think?”
Lin Hai was extremely surprised, but he did not let his guard down."What do you mean?"
Mo Xunjie smiled and pointed at the mess on the table."I've tasted your dishes. They taste very good. I believe that you have the ability to open your restaurant into the best western restaurant in Rong City. However, you can't do it now. Whether it's funding or positioning, you don't have an accurate direction, and I'll provide you with these.”
"But why did you do that?”Lin Hai widened his eyes. He really couldn't believe that such a good thing would happen to him in this world.
"No reason," Mo Xun laughed. I simply admire you. Of course, there's also the objective profit you have.”
Mo Xunjie's gaze was sharp. With such good culinary skills, coupled with his publicity and planning, it was impossible for him not to be popular.
"Think about what I said. You can come to me anytime." Mo Xunjie threw down this sentence and pulled Luo Weiru up, walking towards the restaurant entrance without looking back.
When they were about to leave the restaurant, Lin Hai's voice sounded behind them.""Wait a minute, I'm willing to work with you!”
A mischievous smile appeared on Mo Xunjie's face after his scheme succeeded. It was as if he had obtained his beloved doll, and even his eyes were filled with smiles.
Luo Weiru, it seems that other than being my disaster, you are also my lucky star!
Luo Weiru looked at Mo Xunjie, who was smiling brightly at her, in confusion. She thought to herself,'Could this guy have gone crazy after being provoked?'
Why did he only know how to giggle like a fool?
