Protagonist:
Lu Feng
Pang Lingling spoke excitedly while extending her chubby hand, wanting to shake hands with Lu Feng.
Colleague?
Lu Feng's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes as he looked at Pang Lingling.
Looking at this girl's round figure, she was quite comparable to the shop's regular customer Zhu Chang.
Her build actually fit that description "big head, thick neck, either a tycoon or a cook" quite well.
But in this day and age, female chefs are indeed rarely seen.
Being a chef is quite hard work; very few girls can endure this profession.
It was rare to encounter a female chef who could withstand the hardship, and Lu Feng couldn't help but feel a few points of admiration in his heart, his attitude becoming much more polite.
While extending his hand preparing to shake hands with the other party, he smiled and asked, "So you're a colleague; you're a chef too, right? Girls who can persist as chefs are indeed quite remarkable."
However, what Pang Lingling said next made Lu Feng's half-extended hand freeze instantly.
"Hehehe, no no no."
Pang Lingling let out a barbell-like laugh: "Boss Lu, you're a professional cook, while I'm a professional eater! I'm a professional Big Stomach King mukbang streamer; the two of us, one cooks and one does Gan Fan, count as half colleagues, right?"
While speaking, she playfully winked at Lu Feng.
Just that a 180-plus-jin fat girl making such a playful move was truly a bit of an eyesore.
Once Pang Lingling's words fell, Lu Feng's just-extended hand instantly retracted, the amiability on his face returning to his usual calm.
He stepped back half a step, creating a bit of distance from Pang Lingling, and said in a faint tone: "Since you're not a chef, if you still want to eat, please come back during business hours tomorrow."
"Uh..."
Pang Lingling's hand suspended in mid-air stiffened, still maintaining the posture ready to shake hands.
The smile on her face instantly froze, her round face slowly turning red, and she immediately felt a bit embarrassed.
"Cough cough, baby, let's talk business."
Just when Lu Feng and Pang Lingling were at a loss for words facing each other, the atmosphere a bit awkward, the young man beside Pang Lingling lightly bumped her arm and whispered in her ear.
Although his voice was very soft, Lu Feng heard it clearly.
The young man's address for Pang Lingling just now made Lu Feng unable to help but linger his gaze on him for two more seconds.
The young man had a medium build, looking slightly fatter than himself.
But compared to the 180-jin Pang Lingling beside him, he was simply like a scrawny little chick.
These two people standing together, the contrast was maxed out.
When Pang Lingling said she was a mukbang streamer just now, he had thought these two were in a streamer-and-assistant relationship.
Lu Feng couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
Didn't expect these two to actually be a couple?
Being able to find such a girl as a girlfriend, this young man is quite brave.
This must be true love!
Lu Feng silently sighed with emotion in his heart.
But he wasn't the type to comment on others' relationships; this kind of mutual-willing interaction, he merely felt slightly surprised before returning to calm.
Reminded by her boyfriend like this, Pang Lingling casually withdrew her hand, then put on a professional appearance and said to Lu Feng: "Boss Lu, although we're not colleagues, our visit here this time is indeed to cooperate with you on something."
When she said the word "cooperate," she deliberately emphasized her tone.
At the same time, she couldn't help but complain inwardly.
This boss is a bit handsome, but is his EQ too low?
Not even willing to shake hands, doesn't understand romance at all!
Lu Feng's gaze still had no expression; in his heart he vaguely had a rough guess about these two's purpose.
During this period, the shop's business had become increasingly hot, and recently more internet celebrities had come to the shop to livestream and film videos.
Nowadays, internet celebrities in his shop were no longer considered a fresh profession.
Lu Feng asked without showing any reaction: "Mhm, how to cooperate, you say."
"It's like this."
Pang Lingling leaned forward a bit, saying proudly: "I'm a famous Big Stomach King mukbang streamer on short video platforms; I wonder if Boss Lu has come across my short videos when scrolling recently..."
While speaking, she paused for a moment, looking at Lu Feng with an expectant face, waiting for the other party to nod.
But Lu Feng still looked at her with a calm face, not a shred of extra expression on his face.
During this period he rarely scrolled short videos, and regarding this Big Stomach King mukbang streamer Pang Lingling, he indeed had no understanding.
Pang Lingling waited a few seconds; seeing Lu Feng had no reaction, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and she could only continue: "Our trip to Jiangcheng this time is to do a livestream in Boss Lu's shop; is that okay?"
"Okay, as long as it doesn't affect other customers' dining."
Lu Feng nodded, agreeing quite readily.
"No problem!"
Seeing Lu Feng agree so readily, Pang Lingling promised solemnly: "Boss Lu, rest assured, there are only two of us; my boyfriend handles filming, I handle eating; we definitely won't affect others."
"Good, one more thing."
Lu Feng nodded, then added: "You two also have to be like other customers and queue according to the rules."
"These are all trivial matters, no problem."
Pang Lingling nodded, agreeing readily with a cheerful expression.
"Mm, that's settled then. Come again tomorrow."
Lu Feng nodded at the two of them, spoke to issue the order to leave, and after finishing turned around to prepare to pack things back in the Kitchen.
"Wait, Lu Boss, there's one more thing."
Seeing him about to leave, Pang Lingling hurriedly spoke up to call Lu Feng to a stop.
Lu Feng stopped his steps, turned around to look at Pang Lingling, waiting for the other party to speak.
"It's like this, Lu Boss. I still have a certain level of fame online. Look, this is my account, and there are over a million followers on it!"
Pang Lingling swiftly took out her mobile phone, tapped the screen a few times, and handed it to Lu Feng.
The screen showed her short video account homepage, where the follower count clearly displayed "1.183 million."
She put away her mobile phone, slightly raised her chin, and continued speaking with a tone of pride: "Normally, if we film videos or livestream at other restaurants to promote them and attract customers, we charge an appearance fee—at least five thousand yuan each time."
Pang Lingling's tone shifted, and she looked at Lu Feng with an expectant expression, continuing: "However, your place here is already doing booming business, so our promotion would probably just be icing on the cake, and we won't charge an appearance fee. It's just that tomorrow when we come to your shop to livestream, could you give us a free meal?"
Without waiting for Lu Feng to speak, her gaze quickly swept over the price list on the wall, and then she added with a serious expression: "As for what I want to eat tomorrow, just bring everything on your menu here once."
