Chapter 969: 969

Yuan Zhou started doing this after that one time when he encountered an old man at the trash dump station at the end of the street .

 One ought to know that in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, only the most tender and freshest part of many ingredients would be used, resulting in a large number of leftover ingredients . For example, only the middle part of the watermelon would be used for the Watermelon Juice and all the other parts would be disposed of by the system .

 In order to stop the system from disposing of the leftover ingredients and obtain permission to take these ingredients out of the restaurant, Yuan Zhou had paid a large price in the form of an extremely difficult side mission .

 The difficult side mission would be mentioned at another time . Presently, Yuan Zhou carried the bag of trash and placed it on the rubbish bin .

 “This spot should do it,” muttered Yuan Zhou after looking at the spot he had chosen before turning and leaving .

 With wide strides, he returned to the restaurant . When leaving, Yuan Zhou would usually not close the door . With the security provided by the system, nobody would be able to steal anything from the restaurant .

 Moreover, there were many neighbors and stalls around . When Yuan Zhou was not around, strangers would not have the chance to even enter the restaurant .

 As the saying goes, a relative afar is less useful than a close neighbor . Of course, this saying would have to exclude the neighbor who had the habit of sleeping with their neighbor’s wife .

 Dinnertime .

 This was a special evening at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant . Zhuang Xinmu and Wu Zhou who hadn’t been here for a very long time had arrived .

 It had been a very long time since the two came . And this was a special evening because Zhuang Xinmu had gotten pregnant . Wu Zhou was going to be a father soon .

 That’s right . This couple that enjoyed showing off their affection at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant had gotten married and created a new life .

 And perhaps due to coincidence, Ling Hong, the Wei Wei father and daughter pair, Sister Wan, the rickshaw grandpa, and Chen Wei were all there .

 “Wu Zhou, you have been working hard,” said Chen Wei as he gave Wu Zhou a thumbs up .

 “Not only is he hardworking, he has good marksmanship as well . That is a fatal combination,” said Ling Hong . At times, he would trash talk as well .

 The other customers started joining in as well . This was one of the good parts of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant . Even for people who were not familiar with the others, it was very easy for one to blend in with the others and join in on the fun .

 Zhuang Xinmu was feeling embarrassed, her face flushed red . When Wu Zhou saw the blushing face, he immediately understood what to do .

 Wu Zhou spoke loudly, “Alright, alright . That’s enough . There are women here . Please, mind your manners . ”

 “Women? Mind our manners? Wu Zhou, you have to be grateful that Jiang Changxi is not here . She would not be as pure as us,” said Ling Hong .

 When Wu Zhou pictured what Ling Hong said, he immediately shivered . Nobody was Queen Jiang’s match when it came to teasing .

 “Speaking of which, why is Sister Jiang not here today?” Wu Zhou quickly spoke, trying to shift the topic .

 “How will I know the whereabouts of Jiang Changxi . You need to ask Boss Yuan,” Ling Hong tossed the ball at the court of Yuan Zhou who was eavesdropping while cooking .

 “She went to the award ceremony of Top Ten Chinese Young Entrepreneurs,” Yuan Zhou easily gave an answer .

 Zhuang Xinmu was unsure of what award that was . When he saw Wu Zhou’s eyes lit up, she asked him in whispers .

 “The Top Ten Chinese Young Entrepreneur is a very distinguished award,” Wu Zhou explained . “I once paid attention to this award . Those nominated are all people who are greatly successful in life . ”

Alas, Wu Zhou wasn’t too good at narrating . He used a lot of words to expound upon Zhuang Xinmu the significance of this award .

 “Sister Jiang is one of the top 10?” Wu Zhou asked and answered the question himself, “Then again, that’s understandable . We are in the same age bracket yet Sister Jiang is really very accomplished . ”

 Listening to Wu Zhou’s explanation, Jiang Changxi was indeed quite accomplished . Zhuang Xinmu nodded in agreement .

 “She is the chairperson of the selection committee . She’s there to present the award,” Yuan Zhou added leisurely .

 “Chairperson of the selection committee?” Wu Zhou blanked out .

 Ling Hong roared with laughter, “Don’t you know that Jiang Changxi is the vice-chairman of China Young Entrepreneurs Association?”

 Not to mention Wu Zhou, a vast majority of the customers here were not aware of that . Everyone knew that Jiang Changxi was a female chairman of a company, yet they were unaware that she was actually capable to that extent .

 “Don’t try to change the topic . Wu Zhou, you’re very capable, eh? You’re becoming a father in 10 months,” said Chen Wei, his words smashing straight into Wu Zhou’s heart .

 The words came smashing so abruptly Wu Zhou was nearly out of breath . After taking a while to catch his breath, he replied, “To be precise, there are eight more months . Mu Mu has already been pregnant for two months . ”

 “Two months? No wonder you haven’t been coming to the restaurant recently,” said Chen Wei in realization .

 “You haven’t been coming to the restaurant much recently as well . Wu Zhou had to save up for baby expenses . How about you? After all, you’re single,” asked Wu Hai .

 Wu Hai would normally be low profiled, and the moment he spoke, his words could be described with the depiction “world-shattering” . Chen Wei was instantly furious .

 Why was Wu Hai still alive after all these years with how he behaved?

 Apart from his sturdy body, it was all thanks to his speed . Before Chen Wei could erupt in anger, Wu Hai already stood up .

 “I’m done eating . See you tomorrow, everyone,” Wu Hai spoke quickly .

 Only after hearing that did everyone noticed that the table before Wu Hai was already completely empty . Without anyone realizing it, he had already finished a full table of dishes . This was a speed so fast the others couldn’t even react to it .

 By the time Chen Wei reacted, Wu Hai had already reached his home . Thus, Chen Wei had no avenue to vent his anger .

 “Then again, I am quite curious . Chen Wei, you haven’t been coming for the liquor as well . What have you been busy with?” Ling Hong asked .

 “I received a training job recently so I have been quite busy,” said Chen Wei . As the head of security of a company, he reached that position relying on his capabilities in terms of training new security members .

 The jobs he accepted entailed him training the security members of other companies . He earned a considerable sum of income from that .

 “Working in the security department, you are already staying back late at the company . Yet you still have the time to accept extra jobs . You sure are hardworking,” said Mr . Wei .

 He once chatted with Chen Wei while drinking liquor . Thus, he knew about Chen Wei’s job nature .

 Chen Wei smiled and did not say anything .

 “You have to take note of your health,” Sister Wan said .

 “Yes, I know . Of course, health is important,” Chen Wei replied . He then changed the topic and asked Wu Zhou, “Wu Zhou, have you thought of the kid’s name?”

“We don’t even know the gender yet . How are we supposed to name the baby?” Wu Zhou replied .

 “Just think of two names, one for each gender . Your baby will definitely be growing up under our watch . Therefore, your baby is very special,” said Chen Wei in excitement .

 “Do you want us to gather our opinions as your point of reference?” Chen Wei asked . This question was like the fuse for an explosive that instantly ignited the atmosphere in the restaurant .

 “I think if the baby is a boy, the name can be Wu Tangdi . There’s a poem that goes ‘Why is it so gorgeous, the cherry blossom . ’ And if the baby is a girl, the name can be Wu Caifan,” Ling Hong was the first to voice his opinion . [1 . Tangdi is the cherry blossom part of the poem, accurate translation is Nanking cherry but I thought cherry blossom sounds nicer . Caifan means flower plucker . ]

 “It is acceptable for a boy to be named Wu Tangdi, but for a girl to be named Caifan, that is not a good meaning to have in one’s name . A name needs to sound nice and have a good meaning attached to it as well,” Sister Wan said . “I think for a girl, Wu Yue will be a good name . And for a boy, Wu Qingzhang is good . A chapter of Qinghua . ” [2 . Wordplay . Zhang is chapter, and Qing is the character from Qinghua University, one of the top universities in China . ]

“Wu Qingzhang is a nice name . But what’s the meaning behind Wu Yue?” Wang Hong asked . He was always one to get to the bottom of things .

 “Yue is the most beautiful of all pearls during the ancient times,” Sister Wan explained .

 “I think we need to wait for the baby to be born first . We can look for an auspicious name based on the date of birth,” suggested the rickshaw grandpa .

 “There are too many good ideas . I can’t even remember them all . Go, get a pen and paper,” said Zhuang Xinmu . At first, she was still trying to memorize everything but toward the end, she got Wu Zhou to go get pen and paper instead .

 Due to the large number of suggestions from the various customers, they would not be able to remember everything .
