Chapter 326: Shazhu: She's just as much a white-eyed wolf as Bang Geng

Liu Lan nodded, walked up to Teacher Ran, and said:

"Um, Chairman, I came today just to thank you."

Teacher Ran: "Thank me?"

"Have a seat, have a seat, sit down and speak."

Liu Lan nodded, sat down, and said:

"Thank you for speaking up for me, saying good things."

"And you let me come back to work."

"Otherwise Shazhu would have fired me."

Teacher Ran: "You're welcome, it's also because you're very capable."

"The Manager told me as well."

"You handled the coordination between the front and back kitchens very well."

Liu Lan: "That's my old trade; I, I just know how to do this."

Teacher Ran: "That's good; what we want to do is make the best use of everyone's talents."

Liu Lan: "Thanks, then, if there's nothing else, I'll leave work first."

"I, I'll go back now."

Teacher Ran nodded and said, "Go ahead."

Liu Lan stood up, hesitated a moment, and said:

"By the way, Chairman, there's something I don't know whether I should tell you."

Teacher Ran: "Go ahead."

Liu Lan: "Shazhu cleaned out that little room in the back kitchen."

"He said he wants to turn over a new leaf."

"Starting today, he'll be on duty there."

"I think he might have had a quarrel with Qin Huairu, he's upset and doesn't want to go back."

Teacher Ran: "Hmm, I see."

"Then you go ahead and head back."

Liu Lan: "Okay, then I'll be off."

The sky grew dim.

Teacher Ran came down from the office, preparing to go home.

Just as she reached the lobby, the security guard hurried over and said:

"Chairman, someone is looking for the Head Chef."

Teacher Ran: "Who is it?"

Security guard: "An old man."

Teacher Ran asked again: "Where did he go?"

Security guard: "He went to the back kitchen."

Teacher Ran nodded and walked outward.

No matter who came looking for Shazhu, she didn't want to know.

She had been busy all day and just wanted to hurry home.

Back kitchen.

Yi Zhonghai was still urging Shazhu to go home.

Although he would be happy to see Shazhu and Qin Huairu quarrel.

But he couldn't bear to see Qin Huairu so sad and upset.

No matter what, he also wanted to do something for Qin Huairu.

After all, she is the mother of his son.

He had long since believed that Bang Geng was his and Qin Huairu's child.

"After saying all that, you still don't want to go back with me, right?"

Shazhu let out a cold snort and said, "I'm not going back."

"What's the point of going back?"

"To get locked out by her?"

"No, Eldest Uncle, please judge fairly for me."

"I have no relationship with her; what right does she have to lock my door? What right does she have to keep me from working?"

Yi Zhonghai: "Just because of your unclear relationship with Teacher Ran."

Shazhu: "Hey hey hey, you're so old, can't you stop saying such things that ruin people's reputations?"

"What do you mean by my relationship with Teacher Ran being improper?"

"We're just partners, just running a restaurant together; we have no other relationship."

"Besides, even if we did have a relationship, we're both single."

"What gives her the right to forbid us from having a relationship?"

Yi Zhonghai: "I'm asking you now, do you have feelings for Teacher Ran?"

Shazhu: "So what if I do?"

Upon hearing that, Yi Zhonghai felt very pleased inside.

Shazhu and Teacher Ran would be just fine.

However, he still had to do the surface work.

After thinking a moment, he said, 'What you say is also right; you're all single, so having some kind of relationship is normal.'

'Just, can we wait until this period is over before we talk about it?'

'Now Huairu isn't eating or drinking well at home—don't you feel any pity for her?'

Shazhu: 'I feel pity for her, but who feels pity for me?'

Yi Zhonghai: 'Actually, what Huairu said is also just angry talk; you can't even tell it's angry talk?'

Shazhu: 'If I can't tell, then I'm not going back.'

'What the hell is this, do you know?'

'She wanted to kick me out right then.'

'I said, what right does she have? That's my house; she should be the one leaving, not me.'

'Locking my door and still trying to kick me out—I've figured it out: she's just like Bang Geng, both ungrateful white-eyed wolves.'

Yi Zhonghai got angry: 'What are you talking about? Who's the ungrateful one?'

'Bang Geng is such a good kid, how can you say he's an ungrateful white-eyed wolf?'

Shazhu widened his eyes and asked, 'Eldest Uncle, you say Bang Geng is a good kid?'

'You you you—didn't you used to say Bang Geng had no manners?'

'How did he become a good kid now?'

Yi Zhonghai: 'Never mind all that; I just want to ask you one thing—will you go back or not?'

Shazhu: 'I won't go back; I've said it ten thousand times—not going back means not going back.'

Yi Zhonghai jumped up in anger and simultaneously grabbed the wine bottle on the table.

Shazhu involuntarily shuddered and said, 'What the hell? What the hell are you doing?'

'You want to fire me? Then come on.'

Saying that, he pointed at his own head and then said:

'Hit me here, ah.'

Yi Zhonghai frowned and asked, 'Shazhu, tell me the truth—are you together with Teacher Ran?'

Shazhu: 'Not yet, but I don't know about the future.'

'Who can say for sure what the future holds?'

Yi Zhonghai: 'Then I'll ask you again—do you like Huairu?'

Shazhu: 'I don't know; I used to like her, but now I don't know.'

Yi Zhonghai: 'That means you still like her.'

Shazhu didn't speak.

Yi Zhonghai: 'Since you like her, why don't you go back?'

Shazhu: 'What right do I have to go back? What does she think of me?'

'What am I even considered?'

'In my house, kicking me out—what right does Huairu have?'

'And locking my door—what right does she have to keep me from going to work?'

'Eldest Uncle, please sit down, calm down, let me talk to you—sit, sit here.'

Yi Zhonghai let out a long sigh and sat down.

Shazhu then said, 'I ask you, Eldest Uncle, is it reasonable or not?'

'Kick me out.'

'Where is that? I want to ask.'

Saying this, Shazhu pointed at his own nose and shouted:

'That's my house!'

'That's the house the Deaf Old Lady left me.'

'She's chasing me away—where am I supposed to go?'

'Let me say something unpleasant.'

'My house—Bang Geng this ungrateful white-eyed wolf......'

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned and interrupted:

'Don't say such unpleasant things—what's with all this white-eyed wolf talk?'

Shazhu: 'Hey, if you say Bang Geng isn't a white-eyed wolf, then I'll have a good talk with you.'

'How good have I been to Bang Geng? Everyone in the courtyard can see it.'

'But how has he treated me?'

'All these years, he's been indifferent toward me, not saying a word to me.'

'What have I actually done wrong?'

Yi Zhonghai snorted and said nothing.

Shazhu then said, 'Anyway, that little brat Bang Geng has taken over my house.'

'Okay, for Huairu's sake, I'll endure it and go live in the back courtyard.'

'But Huairu actually still wants to kick me out.'

'What right does she—what right does she have?'

'I have two houses—does she want to take over both of them?'

'Did she even think about it when she chased me away?'

If I leave here, I don't even have a place to live.
