Chapter 264: Cheng Tianji Opens
Chapter 264 Cheng Tianji opens his business
In the following days, Shen Qi was indeed a little busy.
When she returned home this time, she truly became one of the hostesses of the He family.
Therefore, under the instructions of Mrs. He and the housekeeper, people in the family would ask Shen Qi for instructions when something happened.
Because it was related to the dignity of the He family and the status of the old lady, Shen Qi would also ask questions one by one.
In this case, Shen Qi would indeed become busy.
He Yi Ning's company seemed to have some important arrangements, so he often worked overtime, probably to prepare for something.
Half a month before Mrs. He's eightieth birthday, Cheng Tianji suddenly sent an invitation, inviting Shen Qi to attend his opening ceremony.
He really opened a private baking store in H City.
Shen Qi held the invitation, thought for a long time, and decided to go over and have a look.
When she was a child, she didn't keep an appointment, and she felt guilty about it for eighteen years.
Now that we finally meet, let’s maintain this friendship!
Shen Qi called He Yi Ning and told him that he was going to attend the opening ceremony of an old friend. He Yi Ning didn't think of anything else and told Shen Qi to bring gifts so as not to lose her identity.
Coincidentally, just when Shen Qi was about to go out, Liu Yi called.
So, Shen Qi took Liu Yi to attend Cheng Tianji's opening ceremony as a matter of course.
Cheng Tianji's store was located in a not too prosperous area. It was in the north of the city and adjacent to the county seat. It was considered a transportation hub. However, due to the development of urban highways, the transportation volume of this hub was not as exaggerated as imagined.
All I can say is that it's okay, but not the best.
Cheng Tianji's store is on a street from this transportation hub.
There are many shops opened on this street, selling food, drinks, affordable clothes, bags, shoes, etc.
Basically it belongs to civilian consumption area.
Therefore, as soon as Cheng Tianji's store opened, it instantly attracted the attention of the entire street.
Because most private bakery stores are actually hidden in urban areas, it is difficult for such a beautifully decorated store to suddenly appear in the northern suburbs of the city without attracting attention.
Therefore, before the official opening of Cheng Tianji's private bakery, a large group of people had already gathered.
Cheng Tianji stood there in a chef's uniform, instructing the clerk to get ready for the opening.
Shen Qi saw Cheng Tianji from a distance and immediately waved to Cheng Tianji.
When Cheng Tianji saw it, he immediately smiled and frowned, and hurriedly walked to Shen Qi's side.
Liu Yi had been following Shen Qi, and Cheng Tianji glanced at Liu Yi subconsciously.
He had already found out Liu Yi's identity and importance in Shen Qi's heart, so when he formally met Liu Yi for the first time, he didn't show any surprise or look strange, and just greeted him warmly: " Xiao Qi, you are finally here! Is this your friend? "
"This is Liu Yi, my good sister." Shen Qi emphasized the word sister. Although Liu Yi didn't care, Shen Qi still instinctively wanted to protect Liu Yi's reputation.
As expected, Cheng Tianji shook hands with Liu Yi very warmly: "Welcome!"
Liu Yi said with a smile: "I came uninvited, so in order to apologize, I will give you a flower basket. I hope you won't dislike it!"
"How could it be? Invite a distinguished guest who can't even be invited. Come on, come in!" Cheng Tianji glanced at the flower basket sent behind the two people, and immediately squinted his eyes and said: "A distinguished guest is here, this is so dazzling. !”
The people around Shen Qi took a step forward and handed the gift money to the staff who specialized in collecting red envelopes.
Cheng Tianji immediately said unhappily: "I wish you could come, why are you so polite?"
Shen Qi smiled and replied: "This is a bonus, you can't live without it. Only after you open the business will I have the nerve to come here to eat and drink!"
Cheng Tianji immediately burst out laughing: "Okay, from now on you and your friends can come to my place for free. Let's go in and talk."
Shen Qi followed Cheng Tianji in. Liu Yi took a deep look at Cheng Tianji's back and pinched it subconsciously with his fingers.
This man has calluses on his hands.
If you are a chef, it is normal to have wounds on your hands, but it is not normal to have thin calluses on the tiger's mouth.
This is the kind of cocoon left here only by people who hold guns all year round.
And this cocoon is not just a temporary thing, it is probably a few years old.
Who is this Cheng Tianji?
He is so close to Xiao Qi, does Xiao Qi really know his identity?
Liu Yi's eyes flickered, and he became more serious about Cheng Tianji.
As a good sister, of course I have the obligation to guard the hidden dangers around my sister!
Cheng Tianji doesn't have many friends in H City.
So besides Shen Qi and Liu Yi, only a few good friends came to congratulate him.
When it opened, firecrackers roared. Shen Qi covered her ears with her hands and looked at the guests outside with a smile, who came to get the free snacks. She said with a smile: "The passenger flow on this street is still acceptable, and the business will definitely increase." very good."
Cheng Tianji also smiled and replied: "Yes, I just like that the passenger flow here is okay, the location is okay, and the most important thing is that the rent here is cheap."
Liu Yi interjected, "Mr. Cheng doesn't seem to be short of money, why don't you choose a better location?"
"If you have money, you should save some money. Always save some money for your wife." After Cheng Tianji finished speaking, he gave Shen Qi a meaningful look.
Shen Qi had no idea and didn't think much about it at all.
Liu Yiduo glanced at Cheng Tianji and said deliberately: "Yes, as a man, you have to make more money to get a good wife. A girl like our Xiaoqi, such a good girl, is only worthy of the most noble young master of the He family in the world." Gotta get on!"
Shen Qi cast a coquettish look at Liu Yi: "Why did you mention me so politely?"
Liu Yi smiled and said nothing.
Cheng Tianji deliberately pretended to be stupid and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Xiao Qi is so good, of course she must be matched with the best man. I will also work hard to become the best man!"
After the opening ceremony was completed, Cheng Tianji invited the two of them to rest in the quiet room on the third floor.
As soon as she went up to the third floor, Shen Qi discovered that there was something wrong with this place.
Compared with the lobby on the first floor and the box seats on the second floor, the third floor is an unbelievably quiet space.
It is divided into four rooms in total, marked with the words "chunhuaqiuyue" respectively, as a sign.
Cheng Tianji took them into the flower-character room.
As soon as she entered the room, Shen Qi couldn't help exclaiming: "You are really willing to invest!"
The whole room is paved with good lobular red sandalwood floor and full of fine lobular red sandalwood furniture.
A pure white plush carpet was spread on a tatami mat.
On the exquisite hand-woven tablecloth, there is a set of high-quality blue and white tea sets neatly placed.
There is a row of books on the bookshelf on one side. The bookshelf is not high, only half a meter high, making it easy to access.
Near the window, there are several floor-standing vases with a few bouquets of dried flowers, adding a different kind of bleak beauty to the room.
Cheng Tianji said with a smile: "These four rooms are basically not open to the public, that is, they will only be opened when familiar friends come. Please."
Cheng Tianji took the lead and walked over.
Shen Qi and Liu Yi quickly followed.
The feeling of stepping on the soft carpet with bare feet is simply wonderful.
Shortly after the three people sat down, someone came over with exquisite food.
The tea is poured and the aroma overflows.
The exquisite food and the mellow aroma of tea instantly fill the room with aroma and make you feel comfortable.
"Mr. Cheng really knows how to enjoy it!" Liu Yi sighed and said, "I take back what I just said. By opening a store here, Mr. Cheng can indeed save a lot of rent money for decoration!"
Cheng Tianji laughed and said: "Anyway, we are all in the same city, you can come at any time. I have reserved this room specifically for you, and no one else will come in. Except for cleaning and maintenance workers, it will not be used To receive guests.”
Shen Qi immediately said: "How is that possible? You want to do business, how can you waste such a good environment?"
Cheng Tianji looked at Shen Qi meaningfully and said, "There are always some things in this world that are more important than making money. For example, feelings."
Shen Qi's eyes trembled slightly.
She was suddenly a little undecided as to what Cheng Tianji's words meant.
Does his sentence have any other meaning?
It is already known to the whole world that he married He Yi Ning, doesn't he still know about it?
If you really don’t know, then you should explain it yourself!
Otherwise, it would be bad if he misunderstood.
Shen Qi said: "Yes, feelings are more important than making money. So, Tianji, when are you going to find a home for your feelings? After all, you are not young anymore! It's time to make a decision. .Look, I’m settled.”
Cheng Tianji sighed and said: "It's not that I don't want to decide, but I can't decide. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Come, try the food in my shop. These are all made by me, taste my craftsmanship, and... Like it?"
Before Shen Qi could mention anything else, Cheng Tianji had already changed the topic.
Since he didn't want to talk about this topic, Shen Qi couldn't say anything else and could only taste the food with Liu Yi.
During the dinner, the three of them only talked about topics that had nothing to do with themselves, but never involved the past or feelings.
When leaving, Liu Yi said to Shen Qi: "Xiao Qi, I always feel that something is wrong with this Cheng Tianji. How do you know him?"
Shen Qi sighed and said, "Xiao Qi, do you remember that little brother I told you before? He is that little brother."
Shen Qi immediately told Liu Yi how she met Cheng Tianji when she was in the Northeast and how she came into contact with him.
"I have only told you the details of that year. Therefore, it is unlikely that the other party is impersonating." Shen Qi chuckled softly: "Although we saw each other again after eighteen years of separation, we finally met. It can be regarded as fulfilling a childhood wish.”
Liu Yi said nothing.
She felt more and more suspicious about Cheng Tianji.
