Chapter 183 It's normal for good friends to lean on each other.

When Su Mian arrived at the door, Chen Shen had already opened it.

The two looked at each other, with a more reserved smile on their faces. The smile came from the heart, and they couldn't help but restrained it.

Chen Shen took out a pair of pink slippers from the shoe cabinet: "I bought some simple daily necessities. Do you like them? If you don't like them, change them."

Su Mian paused, then said: "I like them."

When changing shoes, Su Mian raised her head and looked at Chen Shen: "This feels so familiar, like the first day we met."

Chen Shen smiled and said: "The first day we met, we changed shoes. I told you three times before you reacted."

Su Mian laughed.

In her heart, she thought that it was fortunate that it was Chen Shen who met that day. If it was someone else, wouldn't he think she was mentally retarded?

Unless it was someone she wanted to see, the kind of person she didn't want to see but couldn't avoid, Su Mian's brain would crash, because she knew that she was used to living alone, she wouldn't say small talk, and she wouldn't answer the conversation. What she thought was normal expression would often lead to a cold reception, or the other party's awkward catering, and then everyone would feel uncomfortable.

Su Mian didn't want to face this situation, so she became less willing to express herself to strangers, and over time, it became more and more serious.

After putting on the shoes, Su Mian felt them and said, "It's a bit big."

Chen Shen opened the door of the shoe cabinet again, took out a pair of shoes that were one size smaller and put them in front of her: "Wear this, I bought them from 36 to 39."

After that, Chen Shen walked inside. Although the house was sparsely occupied, it was not dirty.

If you want to maintain it, just let the property arrange it on the APP. On Saturday, Chen Shen arranged for the housekeeping service connected to the property to clean it.

In the kitchen, Chen Shen started to serve the dishes. He was bored alone, so he tried his hand and made a few side dishes.

Seeing Su Mian's eyes full of doubts, Chen Shen smiled and said, "I ordered takeout, but I rearranged the dishes."

Su Mian pointed to the kitchen: "You're lying."

Chen Shen looked back, and the rice cooker was still steaming.

Chen Shen immediately hissed, "This is a secret, don't tell anyone."

Su Mian smiled, "Okay!"

The two sat next to each other and started eating.

The last time she ate alone with Chen Shen, Chen Shen ran away after eating a few bites. This time was different. Both of them ate in small bites.

Chen Shen put his phone aside and swiped it from time to time.

Su Mian ate quietly. She occasionally looked at Chen Shen. Chen Shen seemed to be busy, but he would pick up food for her when he had some time.

Then Su Mian felt relieved. She didn't feel uncomfortable with this kind of silence, but she was afraid that Chen Shen would be uncomfortable.

It was also very strange. She didn't have this worry before, but now she has it.

In fact, these were all dishes that Su Mian liked to eat, but she took the dishes that Chen Shen picked up for her and put them in Chen Shen's bowl.

Chen Shen noticed it and looked at the meat slices that Su Mian put in his bowl. It seemed to have a little fat.

Then Chen Shen came over, looked at it for several times, and picked up another piece of meat with a little fat from Su Mian's bowl and put it in his own bowl.

He thought Su Mian didn't want to eat meat slices with fat.

Su Mian pursed her lips. She was controlling her smile.

Two people eating together, so happy!

Chen Shen looked at the data reported in a small group on his mobile phone. Today is Monday, the day when the test store at the North Station is open for trial operation.

As of half an hour ago, the turnover exceeded 12,000.

It is only seven o'clock now, and the evening peak has just begun.

The test store is not a big store, with more than 20 tables. It is an upgraded store that was below the average performance line of Chen Hotpot.

There is no publicity, nor is there any online promotion. It is just that the sign used during the renovation is an upgraded store, which has the support of a certain amount of original customer flow of Chen Hotpot.

The store manager said that there were two rounds of turnover at noon, and the praise was overwhelming.

Why?

The store has been upgraded and renovated, and the dishes are still mainly healthy, but the arrangement of the dishes is more focused than before. You can just take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments. In addition, the price has been reduced, which is a real benefit.

There is also a popular cold drink area, as well as a steamed food area and a dessert area that no one has done in hot pot restaurants.

The kitchen for making hot pot is also equipped with a glass display window. Anyone who goes to the bathroom can see the whole picture of the kitchen by turning a corner. This is the biggest feature of Qin Fangyu.

Xu Mo did some calculations. If the daily turnover can stably exceed 8,000, the net profit will be 25%, which is a very high moat in the hot pot industry.

The high moat does not mean high profit, but very low profit. The dishes are done to the extreme, such as a small portion of potato chips, five yuan a portion.

Compared with Haidilao, they sell twelve yuan for the same quality and quantity.

Later, as the turnover increases, the profit margin will also increase.

The hot pot base is also an upgraded version. The chef team formed by Chen Hotpot and Yuxiang Hotpot is still studying the flavor shape in the factory.

Qin Fangyu focuses on affordability. According to the photos sent in the group, there are already people queuing outside.

After dinner, Su Mian and Chen Shen cleaned up the kitchen together.

Originally, Su Mian said that she would clean up alone, and Chen Shen said that he was bored, so they cleaned up together.

Although he said he was cleaning up, in fact, after taking the dishes to the kitchen, Chen Shen stood there, and Su Mian had already rolled up her sleeves and started washing the dishes.

She wore a small white apron over her striped shirt, tied the belt around her waist, and looked like a charming little cook.

"Now that we are so polite, will we play rock-paper-scissors later, and whoever loses will clean up the kitchen?" Chen Shen said with a smile.

Su Mian shook her head: "No."

"Why?"

"I can only let you accompany me like this at most."

"It's hard to say."

"Hmph, when I lived alone, no one accompanied me. I didn't cook every day. It's annoying to cook for one person. I can't finish the meal."

Chen Shen looked at the movement of Su Mian's hand and shook his head: "It shouldn't be. I feel your hands are so white and soft."

Su Mian paused: "Maybe you are not old enough?"

Looking at Su Mian's serious answer, Chen Shen smiled.

"What are you laughing at? It's normal. When you get old, your hands will naturally be ugly. However, my mother's hands are pretty good. She used to like cooking." Su Mian glanced at Chen Shen and didn't understand Chen Shen's funny point.

"It's okay. I just laughed at some girls who think that their ugly hands are because of cooking."

Su Mian asked in confusion: "Aren't hands just hands? Isn't it convenient for you to live? Don't you stop cooking for the sake of beauty?"

Chen Shen was surprised and felt like he had suddenly realized something.

"Mian Mian is really amazing."

Su Mian shook his head and still didn't understand. What was amazing?

Su Mian always felt that she was not good enough, like a little loser, and she couldn't even socialize well.

If she was a little bit better, she wouldn't work in Lao Su's company.

The money was not hers. When Lao Su was in Yanjing, he had an affair with someone and had an illegitimate child. His mother probably feared that she would suffer in the future, so she asked Lao Su for a lot of money.

If she only relied on herself, Su Mian felt that she was a little loser. What could she do with a salary of more than 30,000 yuan a month?

So, Chen Shen was good enough. He was a party B, but he could get along well with Sister Mo.

The two did not take a walk in the evening. Chen Shen held the computer and typed on the keyboard to write the script, and Su Mian sat next to him and played games on the tablet.

After playing a game, she came over to see what Chen Shen was writing, and Chen Shen did not avoid it.

At ten o'clock, Su Mian yawned, and she came over again and poked Chen Shen's waist with her hand.

Chen Shen looked over.

Su Mian whispered, "It's normal for good friends to lean on each other, right?"

Chen Shen smiled and said, "Just lean on me. If you want to sleep, call me and I'll take you upstairs."

"Okay."

Su Mian leaned against Chen Shen at first, tilted her body, and nodded with satisfaction. The boy's body was indeed warm.

Leaning against each other, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she lay down again, nudged Chen Shen's arm with her head, and rested her head on Chen Shen's thigh.

Chen Shen: "Do you want to go upstairs to sleep?"

Su Mian: "No."
