Protagonist:

Lu Feng

Lu Feng turned around and saw a couple standing behind him; the man was looking at him with an excited expression.

After clearly seeing the two people's appearances, he suddenly had an impression of them.

Both were diners who often ate at his shop; the man was named Sun Qiming, and beside him was his girlfriend Xu Yating.

Lu Feng still remembered when the two first came to his shop; Xu Yating had complained that Sun Qiming had gained weight, but after tasting Lu Feng's culinary skill, the two became his loyal customers.

Looking at them now, Sun Qiming's chin seemed rounder, and even Xu Yating beside him didn't look as thin as when they first arrived.

"Uh, hello."

Lu Feng pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, but his heart couldn't help going "thump."

Originally, he was already nervous to the extreme because of the upcoming high-altitude bungee jumping, and now being recognized by customers in his own shop made him feel even more panicked.

He usually appeared calm and composed in the shop, and many customers thought he had a steady personality, with a bit of an otherworldly expert's vibe.

If his appearance of screaming miserably while jumping down during the bungee jump were spread by these two, wouldn't his cool persona in front of customers collapse?

Thinking of this, Lu Feng subconsciously straightened his waist, afraid that these two would see his nervousness.

Sun Qiming was still immersed in the excitement of the chance encounter, completely unaware of Lu Feng's discomfort, and casually patted his shoulder: "Boss Lu, I really didn't expect to run into you here; are you here for bungee jumping too?"

That question was truly interesting.

They were already here; if not for bungee jumping, were they here to see the scenery?

It was somewhat similar to that oddball online who seriously asked an air conditioner installer, "What do you do for a living?"

Lu Feng tried to keep his expression calm, nodded slightly, then suddenly thought of something and asked somewhat doubtfully: "Isn't today Monday? Why are you here? Don't you have class today?"

"Hey! Boss Lu, you don't know what day it is today?"

Sun Qiming hehe-hehe smiled, with a somewhat proud expression, and pulled Xu Yating closer to him: "Today is Qixi Festival Festival Festival! We two specifically asked for leave today, planning to challenge something exciting, to leave a memory for Valentine's Day!"

Xu Yating rolled her eyes at Sun Qiming, and the expression on her face looked somewhat helpless.

Others bring their girlfriends for Qixi Festival Festival, giving roses and eating big meals; where is the romance in going anywhere?

She was dragged by her boyfriend to the amusement park; originally she had some expectations, thinking that riding the Ferris Wheel together on Qixi Festival Festival would also be quite romantic.

For this, Xu Yating put on beautiful makeup today and wore a newly bought white dress.

But after arriving at the amusement park, she found out that Sun Qiming actually dragged her to experience high-altitude bungee jumping!

She was extremely unwilling in her heart, but couldn't resist her boyfriend's bitter pleading, so she reluctantly came to queue.

During the queuing process, Xu Yating more than once wanted to lift the top of Sun Qiming's head to see what exactly was inside.

Lu Feng noticed the expression on Xu Yating's face and could more or less guess her thoughts; he couldn't help but look at Sun Qiming with the eyes of looking at an oddball.

Taking your girlfriend to experience high-altitude bungee jumping on Valentine's Day.

You really know how to play, kid; are you truly not afraid your girlfriend will break up with you!

Lu Feng couldn't help but recall the comment content he saw this morning.

I hope these two won't just break up right there after experiencing it.

"Boss Lu, you came alone today?"

Sun Qiming still said to Lu Feng with an excited face, completely not noticing the expression on his girlfriend's face beside him.

"Mm, just wandering around." Lu Feng nodded and responded vaguely.

"By the way, I have to say something in the group!"

Sun Qiming said and took out his mobile phone, pulled up the group chat, and typed quickly: "Boss Lu, you don't know; early this morning, many people in the group were guessing when you would open for business this week!"

"Hey, wait a moment!"

Hearing his words, Lu Feng suddenly reacted.

That group chat spontaneously created by the customers, although he hadn't joined, he had heard other customers mention it; there were three or four hundred people in it.

Running into two acquaintances was already enough to make him nervous; if there were other customers in this amusement park and they all ran over to watch him bungee jump, wouldn't that be even more socially embarrassing?

Unexpectedly, he spoke too late; Sun Qiming had already sent the message to the group chat.

"Family, major discovery! Brought my girlfriend to Century Happy Valley for bungee jumping; unexpectedly ran into Boss Lu!"

Immediately after, he sent a photo of Lu Feng queuing.

In the photo, Lu Feng's expression was somewhat stiff, and his hand was still reaching toward the screen; this was his movement when he had just tried to stop Sun Qiming from sending the message.

The originally silent group chat exploded the second after he sent the message.

"Damn! Real or fake? Boss Lu bungee jumping? Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?"

"Boss Lu plays such wild projects? I happen to be nearby; I'll be there in ten minutes!"

"The bungee jumping at Century Happy Valley is 80 meters! Boss Lu must pay attention to safety; if he loses an arm or a leg, how will he make delicious food for everyone in the future?"

"Boss Lu, hold on! I'll arrange an ambulance from our hospital to go there right now; you absolutely must not have anything happen!"

"What a coincidence? I'm also at the amusement park with my partner right now; Boss Lu, don't rush to jump yet; wait five minutes for me; I'll go cheer you on!"

"You guys say, after Boss Lu bungee jumps today, will he throw up? The last time I experienced it, I almost threw up all my bile!"

"Getting back to the point, today is Monday; when does Boss Lu open for business? Brother, hurry up and ask Boss Lu!"

The group chat instantly became extremely lively; in the blink of an eye, over a hundred messages were swiped.

Sun Qiming held up his mobile phone to show Lu Feng: "Boss Lu, look; everyone is concerned about you!"

"I thank you..."

Lu Feng squeezed out a smile on his face and looked at Sun Qiming gnashing his teeth.

He was nearly speechless; if not for his decent self-restraint, he really wanted to beat Sun Qiming up.

"By the way, Boss Lu, everyone in the group is asking you—when are you open this week!"

Sun Qiming didn't notice Lu Feng's murderous gaze at all, holding up his mobile phone to show him the messages in the group chat.

"Want to know?"

Lu Feng glanced at him, naturally knowing what this kid was scheming.

There's a local tycoon named Zhao Zhenhui in the group chat; whoever notifies everyone first of this week's business hours gets a thousand-yuan red packet.

"Want to! Of course I want to!" Sun Qiming nodded like a chick pecking at grain.

"I'll tell you after we go down." Lu Feng pointed below the jump platform.

Sun Qiming was stunned, then an excited expression appeared on his face, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

In the blink of an eye, the tourists ahead screamed as they jumped off the high platform, were taken away by the staff waiting below, and it was Lu Feng's turn next.

The staff member smiled, holding the safety rope toward Lu Feng and waved: "Next!"

Lu Feng's heart sank, and he subconsciously took a step back.

Sun Qiming behind him patted his shoulder and shouted in his ear: "Boss Lu, it's your turn!"

Nonsense, do I need you to remind me?

Lu Feng turned his head and glared at him, then gritted his teeth and walked forward.
