Chapter 2243 Little surprise
Liu Manqiong was completely helpless with Ye Chen.
Although she knew that Ye Chen was very strong, she still had no hope in whether Ye Chen could defeat the Zhong family and Hongmen.
However, she had already thought of a solution in her mind.
If this matter really doesn't end, I will beg my dad to come forward.
If your father cannot solve the problem, he will call the police directly.
Today's incident was that Zhong Zitao led people to follow them and even wanted to kill Ye Chen. Ye Chen was considered as self-defense.
At that time, father and the police will put pressure on the Zhong family and Hongmen, and may have a chance to mediate!
Afterwards, Liu Manqiong took Ye Chen to a very lively wonton noodle stall.
Seeing that several small tables in front of the stall were already full, she smiled and said to the boss: "Uncle Cheng, business is so good today!"
Uncle Cheng looked up and saw her, not surprised at all, and said with a smile: "Miss Manqiong, I heard that you were dating, we are all very happy!"
Liu Manqiong asked with a look of surprise: "Who said this...is...it's too gossipy!"
Cheng Bo smiled and said, "Anan said in our whatsapp group at the corner of the street! We know the whole street! He also secretly took photos of you and your boyfriend!"
As he said that, he took out a somewhat old smartphone and showed a photo of Liu Manqiong and Ye Chen from the back to the two of them. He smiled and said, "Miss Manqiong, you and your boyfriend are really handsome!"
Liu Manqiong had no choice but to say: "Uncle Nan is really a puppet and write gossip news! He said he was just an ordinary friend..."
As she said that, she quickly changed the subject: "Forget it, Cheng Bo, please help us cook two bowls of wonton noodles."
Cheng Bo nodded, took out a folding table from under the stall that was obviously much cleaner than other tables, set it up in an open space, took out two folding chairs, placed them at both ends of the table, and said to Liu Manqiong: "Miss Manqiong, you two sit first, I'll cook for you now."
Liu Manqiong said: "Thank you, Cheng Bo, I'll buy something else."
Cheng Bo hurriedly said, "Miss Manqiong, just sit down. Tell me what I want to eat. I will ask them to send it in the group."
Liu Manqiong said: "That's so inappropriate... I'll go by myself..."
Cheng Bo smiled and said, "Miss Manqiong, the stalls you often go to are all a group of old ladies. If you go, they will definitely be teased by them."
"Oh..." Liu Manqiong sat down and said with some fear: "Then Cheng Bo should tell me, I want a portion of money and a portion of curry fish eggs, a portion of braised platter and roast goose, and a portion of braised platter and roast goose. Please help me with one."
Cheng Bo smiled and said, "Wait for a moment, Miss Manqiong, I'll tell them now."
Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that everyone likes you very much."
"Yes." Liu Manqiong said with a smile: "They watched me grow up, and they may also feel that they owe me some favors because of the stall, so they treat me very well."
Ye Chen said seriously: "It is true that they appreciate you, but it is true that they like you. You can see that each of them treats you as a relative and their eyes are very pure."
Liu Manqiong nodded and said with a smile: "I am very grateful to them too. If it weren't for them, things would have changed here long ago. They are here, and they have helped me keep the best memories of my life together."
As he said that, Liu Manqiong said sadly again: "Everything here is the same as before, but they are old, I have grown up, and my mother is no longer there."
Seeing that she was a little melancholy, Ye Chen pretended to be relaxed and said: "My parents left very early. After they left, I became an orphan and lived in the welfare home for ten years. In comparison, you are still much happier than me."
"Are you an orphan?" Liu Manqiong looked at Ye Chen in surprise, looking disbelief.
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Before the age of eight, I was probably the happiest child in the world. I fell from the sky into the mud pit overnight, and then struggled all the way through the mud pit, and it's today."
Liu Manqiong exclaimed: "You are so young that you can be a key position in Isu Shipping, which proves that you are still very capable of personal ability."
"Is that true?" Ye Chen suddenly scratched his head embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Haha, it seems that's the case."
He always couldn't tell Liu Manqiong that he was actually the boss with the largest holdings in Yisu Shipping.
At this time, many middle-aged people walked towards the two of them with a smile on their faces.
The leader was the uncle Nan just now. He saw that he was holding a big box in his hand, and he didn't know what was inside.
Everyone came to the two of them, and Uncle Nan smiled and said, "Miss Manqiong, happy birthday!"
After saying that, Cheng Bo beside him quickly opened the lid of the big box, and it turned out to be an exquisite birthday cake inside.
Everyone cheered together and said in unison: "Miss Manqiong, happy birthday!"
Liu Manqiong was stunned and murmured: "Today is not my birthday... I will arrive for more than ten days on my birthday... Uncle Nan, Uncle Cheng, what's going on?"
Uncle Nan smiled and said, "Miss Manqiong, today is the fourth day of the fourth lunar month, which is your lunar birthday. You may not usually look at the lunar calendar, but the first thing we old guys do when we wake up every day is to read the old lunar calendar. We can't remember the days of the lunar calendar, but we remember the days of the lunar calendar very clearly."
Liu Manqiong's eyes suddenly became wet, and she covered her mouth and whispered: "I don't even know..."
Cheng Bo said with a smile: "We were all preparing for this a few days ago. I want to give you a small surprise. In the afternoon, we were worried that you would not come today, but I didn't expect you to come with your boyfriend."
Two lines of tears slid across Liu Manqiong's eyes. This time she did not explain again, but said very gratefully: "Thank you everyone... Thank you..."
Uncle Nan and Cheng Bo held the cake and sang a Cantonese birthday song: "I wish you good fortune and longevity and happiness, and celebrate your happy birthday! There is a day every year, and a day every year! Congratulations, congratulations!"
Everyone followed them clapped and Uncle Nan handed two candles and a box of matches to Ye Chen, and said with a smile: "Young man, Miss Manqiong's 24th birthday is her zodiac year, so we have prepared two candles, please help Miss Manqiong light it!"
Ye Chen nodded slightly, inserted two candles, and then lit them.
Everyone hurriedly urged her to make a wish and blow the candles.
Liu Manqiong glanced at Ye Chen, closed his eyes, acquiesced to a wish, and then blew out the candle under the witness of everyone.
Everyone cheered again, and then everyone brought their own specialty meals or snacks for Liu Manqiong and Ye Chen. Because each portion was very small, Cheng Bo also said to the two of them: "We know that Miss Manqiong doesn't like wasting, so each portion was prepared in small quantities. If there is something not enough, let's prepare it for the two of you!"
Liu Manqiong said with red eyes: "Thank you everyone, I am so dedicated, I still remember my birthday..."
Cheng Bo smiled and said, "This is all right. Miss Manqiong, I will say something about Gao Cang on behalf of everyone. In our eyes, you are like our own daughter!"
