Lu Yingqiu jogged all the way, slightly out of breath, but when she stood on the steps still dozens of meters away from the food truck, she was completely stunned.
This is...
Could it be those customers from yesterday, they actually came to queue so early in the morning?
The girls in red clothes are rather pretty. Are they the foot massage therapists hired by Boss Wen? They're all giving foot rubs to the customers.
And those girls in Warring States robes, why are they in the hot springs wearing Warring States robes?
Lu Yingqiu's brain couldn't quite process it.
When her gaze focused on a particular spot of the food truck, "That is? Why is she coming out of the driver's cabin?"
Lu Yingqiu continued walking down, feeling a bit nervous as she squeezed through the crowd in front of the food truck and boarded it.
Mu Mu happened to see her when she got off the truck.
"Hey? How dare you get on the food truck, could it be this little vixen?"
Mu Mu eyed Lu Yingqiu from the side, feeling that aside from being taller, bustier, and with longer legs, she had no other advantages!
So, Mu Mu also followed her onto the food truck.
Lu Yingqiu didn't say a word and squatted down to start washing basins and kitchenware. Chen Mo, speechless, said, "No need to wash those, I'll take care of them later."
"Oh." Lu Yingqiu stood up, "Have you started making the rabbit heads? Sorry, I was going to nap a bit and then come to help."
Chen Mo smiled, "I can handle it."
Oh wow!
Mu Mu almost went dumb with what she saw, what in the world is happening here?
This girl is really good at pretending to be innocent, even at this age, she's fiddling with her clothes and speaking softly with her head down, right in front of my Brother Chen Mo?
"Brother Chen Mo!" Mu Mu's voice involuntarily rose, "Actually, actually! Actually, I knew you were very busy so I didn't bother you, but since Brother Chen Mo didn't contact me, I wouldn't blame you! If there's blame, it's only on me..."
Ugh!
Lu Yingqiu lifted her head slightly, bemused, looking at this otherwise unremarkable pretty girl, thinking, what is up with this pretentiousness?
Lu Yingqiu is socially awkward, but she's no fool...
What Mu Mu said made Chen Mo feel a bit embarrassed too, "Oh, I just left without saying anything, and who knows when I'll come back. If it's meant to be, we'll meet again! Besides, with how advanced transportation is now, what's there to be scared of?"
Outside the food truck.
LuLu, Nana, and all the other female therapists were a bit baffled.
What is going on here?
Why is Miss Mu Mu suddenly so pretentious?
Is Boss Xiao Chen not picking up on this?
Meanwhile, the men enjoying the services suddenly found the foot rubs not as comfortable.
Boss Chen, you can even turn setting up a stall into such a scene?
"Fengzi, do you think selling our Cadillac would let us buy a food truck like this?"
"Dunzi, you could buy it. But do we have the culinary skills of Boss Chen Mo?"
Nana, while giving a foot rub, looked up and said, "Guys, are skills the main thing? The main thing is, do you have the looks of Boss Xiao Chen?"
Dunzi and Zhang Feng looked over together, "Cut the pay!"
Lu Yingqiu thought this girl probably sees her as a rival, right? But that's okay, she had no such thoughts, just felt she owed Brother Xiao Chen a lot and helping out was the right thing to do.
"If there's nothing I need to do, I'll wait outside. Call me if you need anything."
"Alright, go take a rest."
Mu Mu saw how polite Chen Mo was to Lu Yingqiu, and felt like her earlier pretentious act was not all that effective, and she felt like she was punching at cotton.
Suddenly remembered something.
"Hey, hey." Mu Mu called after Lu Yingqiu, "I'm so bored. I just saw there's a chess set in the cabin, wanna play?"
Lu Yingqiu's expression turned peculiar, paused for a moment, then said, "Sure."
Tsk.
Chen Mo thought to himself, Mu Mu, this girl, is really digging her own grave here.
"Everyone, enjoy yourselves, I'm going to take a break, we'll be serving food soon!"
Amidst envious gazes from everyone, Chen Mo ducked back into the cabin.
"Call me when the lamb is done, okay?"
[Rest assured!]
During late nights, it's always like this. As long as you don't lie down, you don't feel sleepy, but the moment you hit the bed, you fall right asleep.
Outside.
Fang Zhizhong had been watching for a while, with rabbit heads and lamb chops, it seemed today would be a real feast.
But then, Old Fang is someone with some business acumen.
Anyway, planning to stay in Yu Province for a couple of days before heading back, Old Fang thought there was no need to rush today's meal, it should be savored slowly, extending the battle line, so he could eat more.
He strolled over to the pavilion and stood behind Mu Mu, only to watch Mu Mu's horse ignore the horse's legs and directly jump into the opponent's territory.
Lu Yingqiu paused for a moment but didn't speak, her chariot charged straight in, pairing with a cannon on the head, a decisive move.
"That doesn't count, I was thinking about other things, let's go again!"
Lu Yingqiu remained silent, arranging the chess pieces on her own.
Three minutes later.
"You... that doesn't count, you must've cheated just now! Let's play another round!"
Lu Yingqiu's interest was gradually piquing. The self-doubt she had after being thrashed by Chen Mo the previous day seemed to be improving.
By eight thirty, the sun was already strong, but thankfully there were plenty of plants and tents in the food area.
Chen Mo was awakened by the noise in his head.
The lamb chops are done!
Wiping his face with a wet towel, he immediately felt much more awake.
He jumped off the food truck, "Hey?"
The line of people waiting for foot rubs had disappeared, and looking up again, he saw a crowd gathered around the pavilion.
"Jump the horse! It must jump the horse!"
"Nonsense, don't you see their chariot is watching? It must be an advancing pawn!"
"Ugh! No, no, advance the advisor, if you don't defend, it's over!"
Around twenty big guys were gathered behind Mu Mu, all offering strategies, while Lu Yingqiu sat alone, unruffled.
"No wonder she's the campus chess champion!" Chen Mo decided that he wouldn't play chess with her again, for as long as he didn't play, he would always be the top player in Lu Yingqiu's mind.
The cooked lamb chops, boneless and pressed firm, were placed in the cupboard to cool.
Next, water was brought to boil as the thawed and washed whole chickens began to be placed into the pot in batches to simmer slowly. Every ten minutes of boiling, cold water was added to cool it down.
After several repetitions, one batch was cooked.
By nine thirty, fifty chickens were hung on the racks outside the food truck.
The rabbit heads, marinated for a long time, along with the soup, were poured into a large stainless steel drum to continue soaking. If anyone wanted to eat them, they could be taken out and braised red.
The lamb was sliced, and if someone ordered, it could be cooked in a small frying pan.
In the last half hour, Chen Mo took out the stewed noodle base made overnight, ready to pull out when someone ordered.
Everything was prepared meticulously and methodically.
The two pigs from the hotel also arrived late and saw the chickens already hanging outside the food truck, knowing they were late.
Chen Mo went over the next steps again, feeling confident about everything.
He shouted loudly, "Yingqiu, time to work!"
Lu Yingqiu raised her chin, and the cannon in her hand leaped down, delivering a checkmate in a single move.
She stood up and ran towards the food truck.
Seeing this, the crowd got excited and hurried the same way towards the food truck.
Mu Mu scratched her ears and cheeks.
How did I get checkmated again!
Didn't my dad say my chess was at least professional level?
Damn!
