Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Preparing a Branch Store



```

At four o'clock in the early morning of the next day, Chen Yu habitually got up and went down to the first-floor restaurant.

However, today he did nothing except prepare the seasoning for the marinated foods, making them into spice packs and leaving them there.

Today, he was going to make a bold attempt!

Before long, Wang Qingshan hurried into the store.

"Master, you're here so early!"

Chen Yu's face showed helplessness, "Master Wang, how many times have I told you not to call me that."

Wang Qingshan scratched his head somewhat embarrassingly, "Then what should I call you?"

"You are older than me, just calling me Little Chen will do!"

Wang Qingshan didn't immediately agree but simply smiled, went straight to the cold room, and pulled out a cart of pig heads and knuckles, starting to process them by himself.

"Master Wang, I have something to do today, I might not be in the store, so I'll have to trouble you to help keep an eye on it."

Wang Qingshan immediately patted his chest, "Don't worry! I am quite good at managing a store."

Chen Yu nodded and then pointed to the stack of spice packs beside him.

"I have prepared the spice packs for the marinade here, you can just throw them in when adding the spices."

Wang Qingshan nodded repeatedly.

After leaving that instruction, Chen Yu directly went up to the third floor.

He had decided to take the day off for himself, and at the same time, he wanted to test Wang Qingshan.

He had secured all those spice packs tightly, using a mesh-like sanitary gauze.

Having made marinades for ten years, Wang Qingshan should understand that in this case, all one needs to do is throw the spice packs in.

If he coveted the ingredients of the marinated foods, he would definitely try to open the packs and study their composition.

If Chen Yu returned in the evening and found the spice packs hadn't been opened, then he could immediately start setting up a second store.

At six in the morning, Tong Ya, wearing pajamas, sleepily rubbed her eyes and came out of her room.

She was surprised to see Chen Yu sitting on the sofa.

"Is the store not open today?"

Usually at this time, Chen Yu would be busy in the kitchen.

Chen Yu leaned lazily on the sofa, "How could that be? I'm preparing for the branch store."

"Branch store!" Tong Ya immediately became excited.

Considering the current popularity and turnover of Chen Yu's store, he could have opened a branch store long ago.

But Chen Yu, preferring stability, had held off until now.

Tong Ya bounced and sat down beside Chen Yu, "Can I help with anything then? I'm off work today."

Chen Yu was slightly stunned, "It's not the weekend, and doesn't the dance class only take a break every other week?"

Tong Ya laughed, "Yesterday at noon, Tuan Tuan was admitted to Suzhou City No. 5 Middle School on the grounds of his special talent in dance, so the next few months are essentially summer vacation."

Chen Yu's mouth fell open in surprise—he had known nothing about this.

Suddenly feeling guilty, he slapped his forehead. His mind was so preoccupied with the store that he indeed seemed to have neglected Tuan Tuan.

"How could I forget about this!"

Tong Ya wrapped her arm around Chen Yu's, "It's okay, now you just focus on running the store, and I'll take care of Tuan Tuan's matters."

As she spoke, Tong Ya got up and took out an admission notice from the drawer beneath the television.

"I've completed all the procedures yesterday, and Tuan Tuan can go straight into the first grade."

Chen Yu took the admission notice from Tong Ya and sighed softly.

```

Before they knew it, Tuan Tuan was about to start first grade.

"Then, after Tuan Tuan wakes up and we send your dad back, let's go out and look for a new store."

At eight in the morning, Tong Ming stumbled out of the room, feeling groggy.

Surprised to see Chen Yu, he exclaimed, "Kid, you can really hold your liquor! You downed two bowls of aged wine without batting an eye."

By this time, Chen Yu was also ready and set to leave the house.

"Old man, let me take you back first!"

Tong Ming waved his hand dismissively, "No need, have some food here before you go, and besides, the driver should already be on his way."

Chen Yu didn't say much more and prepared to leave with Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan.

"Hold on a sec!" Tong Ming suddenly called out, "Aren't you going to say hello to your own dad?"

Tong Ya pouted, avoiding eye contact.

Although Tong Ming had spilled everything last night while drinking with Chen Yu, she still couldn't get over the emotional hurdle.

Her mother had died in her sickbed years ago, and that was a cold, hard fact.

What hurt her most was that in the ensuing days, Tong Ming hadn't even bothered to ask once how she was getting along.

Clutching Chen Yu's arm, Tong Ya hid behind him.

"Husband, let's go quickly! If we're late, the good stores will be taken."

Tong Ming's pupils dilated slightly, he hadn't expected Tong Ya to start calling Chen Yu 'husband'.

Moreover, in front of Chen Yu, she gave no regard to her father's feelings.

Indeed, daughters married off were like water poured away. Before even getting married, she was already like this; after the marriage, wouldn't all the family's wealth end up in Chen Yu's hands?

Tong Ming didn't dwell on it any further. It had not been easy to locate Tong Ya, and he didn't want her to run off again.

"Fine, if you don't want to speak to me, I won't force you! After all, any children you have in the future will still have to call me grandpa."

Tong Ya's lips were pursed; she remembered that Chen Yu had told her he didn't want any more children for the time being.

"We don't want to have children yet—this is my child!"

With that, Tong Ya pushed Tuan Tuan forward.

Just as Tong Ming turned his head, about to erupt, he was charmed by Tuan Tuan's cute and adorable appearance.

"What a cute little doll! Come here and call me grandpa!"

Tong Ya was stunned. She hadn't expected Tong Ming to accept Tuan Tuan so easily.

Knowing Tong Ming's identity, Tuan Tuan chuckled and ran towards him with arms wide open.

"You are my mommy's daddy, so I should call you grandpa, but you were really mean to mommy, so I'll have to observe whether I should call you grandpa."

Tong Ming immediately perked up, "Chen Yu, this girl has the same personality as you! She's got potential and will surely achieve greatness one day. This granddaughter of mine, I'm proud of her."

As he spoke, Tong Ming fished out a sapphire pendant.

"I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts…"

To his surprise, Tuan Tuan stepped back immediately.

"I can't take it. Daddy said we shouldn't accept things that come without clarity."

Tong Ming was taken aback for a moment. Such young age yet so proud and principled, she already met the initial criteria for an heir in his eyes.

"Haha, well done! Found a good husband and also got such a nice kid as a bonus."

Though it sounded like he was talking to himself, Tong Ya knew that these words were meant for her.

The knot in her heart suddenly loosened a bit.

Tong Ming didn't take back the necklace, "This was originally for your mother, I hope you will accept it on her behalf."
