Is it difficult to fall in love? My male mother taught me step by step

Jiangcheng officially entered mid-July, and the weather was extremely hot, like a huge steamer, emitting unbearable heat.

Since the end of June, the sky seemed to have been turned off, and not a drop of rain fell.

During this period, Jiang Mian has been busy visiting shops.

She goes out early every day, wearing a sun hat, and walks through the streets and alleys of Jiangcheng.

The scorching sun shone on her without any obstruction, and her clothes were soon soaked with sweat. Her originally fair skin was tanned a whole degree under the scorching sun.

Cheap stores are either too small, making you feel cramped and depressed as soon as you walk in. Or they are in a bad location, hidden in a remote corner, making it difficult to attract customers' attention.

Master Zhou was busy at work but was concerned about Jiang Mian's entrepreneurial journey.

Whenever he has free time, he will help Jiang Mian find a shop.

The two worked tirelessly and asked around. After half a month of investigation and comparison, they finally rented a 64-square-meter shop in the basement of the "one" community.

There are high-end residential areas around where Jiang Mian lives, and there are no other barbecue restaurants in this area.

Master Zhou accompanied her as they set up the warehouse equipment in the store. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Have you decided on a name for the store?"

Jiang Mian frowned slightly, and after a moment, said: "BoboCat!"

Master Zhou looked puzzled, "What's Popoka? There's no barbecue with such a name."

Jiang Mian pointed outside and said, "Look at the shops around you. Aren't all of them named in English?"

Master Zhou went out and looked around. Sure enough, the convenience stores, coffee shops, high-end restaurants, dry cleaners, bakeries, and the huge fitness club on the second floor all had English names without exception.

Master Zhou returned to the shop and nodded, "Indeed."

"Then let's call it Popoka. It still needs to be simply installed." Master Zhou smacked his lips and said thoughtfully.

This store used to be a light food restaurant, and there was no smoke exhaust system in the kitchen.

The kitchen area and dining area are simply separated by glass. Through the transparent glass, you can clearly see the general layout of the kitchen.

Master Zhou took Jiang Mian into the kitchen and told her how to plan and arrange it. Jiang Mian listened and took notes.

......

Yu Zerong was in a daze with a cold face. He had already handled the company's affairs properly, and Zhan Xian would be responsible for the steady progress of the project.

Originally, he was delighted to think that Jiang Mian no longer had to stay up late to work, and they could finally spend every day together and enjoy their sweet time. They no longer had to be so busy as before that they could only get up in the middle of the night to call each other, and hurriedly say a few sweet words in the midst of fatigue and longing.

The reality was contrary to his expectations, and his life today was even worse than before.

Jiang Mian now doesn't reply to a single message a day. Whenever he asks her what she is doing, he always gets just two simple words: "busy".

Yu Zerong's mind is full of her. As long as Jiang Mian doesn't reply to his message for one day, he will be distracted and worried.

He wanted to get close to Jiang Mian, but he didn't know how to break this invisible barrier.

Jiang Mian doesn't want to meet, why doesn't he want to meet?

Yu Zerong was browsing online when he saw a picture and text that said, "If you become anxious and anxious about losing someone after more than a day without contact, communication, or meeting them, and can't wait to see them even a quarter of an hour, then they're probably not your soulmate. Let your days tell when your soulmate will come."

When Yu Zerong watched the first half, he kept nodding his head in affirmation, thinking that the master was right. However, when he saw the words "it is highly likely not the right fate", he immediately pressed and held the button to report it, knowing that it was obviously a lie.

He frowned when he heard a knock on the door: "Come in."

Zhan Xian said, "Mr. Yu, Jiang Mian actually signed a lease contract with the property management today." He handed over the contract.

What a coincidence, the community basements of Yangfan and One are both owned by Yu Zerong.

"Where is the family's money going from one hand to the other?" Zhan Xian couldn't help but complain.

"Have you ever been in love?" Yu Zerong suddenly asked.

"I'm 32, how could I not have been in a relationship?"

"Okay, my girlfriend suddenly ignored me. What's the reason?" Yu Zerong looked confused.

"When we first got together, we would talk on the phone for ten hours a day."

Zhan Xian was shocked. "Really? Ten hours? Starting from the embryo?"

He recalled, "Some time ago, when she was working at the barbecue restaurant, she would call two or three times a week."

"Now she doesn't reply to my messages for several days, and when she does, she just says she's busy."

Zhan Xian looked at Yu Zerong's distressed look, and his heart couldn't help but move. At this time, he suddenly remembered that Yu Zerong was only 22 years old.

He subconsciously touched his eyebrows and thought quickly in his mind, how could he say it without hurting this love-brained person?

For example, 'She may be really busy, but you are really unimportant.'

And 'Why think so much, maybe she was just happily chatting with another boy and forgot to reply you, it's okay.'

Zhan Xian: No, no.

Zhan plucked a few eyebrows and asked, "Do you know what she's been doing lately?"

"I know. She is thinking of opening a barbecue restaurant. Hasn't she just rented a store?" Yu Zerong replied.

When Zhan Xian heard this, he immediately understood: "That means he is really busy."

Yu Zerong looked puzzled as to how running a barbecue restaurant could be so busy.

Zhan Xian looked at his naive appearance, gritted his teeth, and cursed in his heart this damn black-hearted little boss, "You just leave the work to your subordinates with just one word, but you don't know how hard they work."

I’m going to tell you today that running a small barbecue restaurant is incredibly busy, yet I have to do so much work every day.

Zhan Xian: "First, we need to choose a suitable store location based on the business project... We also need to consider a combination of online and offline promotion methods, such as social media promotion, flyer distribution, and cooperation with group buying platforms." After saying this, he took a deep breath and started drinking water.

He spoke for a full half hour, detailing the preparations before opening the store, starting with market research, then talking about site selection, obtaining licenses, then the design and decoration of the store, and then talked about equipment procurement, marketing and promotion, and the preparation of promotional materials, and finally talked about the preparation of opening personnel.

Zhan Xian said: "You see, she is alone and has to do many things by herself." Take me for example, I am also so tired when doing things.

After hearing this, Yu Zerong nodded slowly and said thoughtfully: "If you can't lead a team, you can only work until you die."

Zhan Xian: What am I asking for? Do capitalists have empathy?

Yu Zerong: "She's working so hard, you should find someone to help her."

Zhan Xian: It turns out that capitalists have empathy, but they just can’t empathize with me!

Then, Yu Zerong sighed softly, "Forget it, she will definitely be unhappy if she knows." He lowered his eyes, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.

The main reason is that the two of them have never met, and she never replies to his messages, so he really feels insecure.

Yu Zerong lowered his head and thought, "You should go out and do your work first."

Zhan Xian: "Okay, Mr. Yu." You are amazing for throwing it away after using it.

When Yu Zerong saw the door closed, he sent a message to Jiang Mian.

【Zero: When will we meet? 】

【Zero: You can't just say "soon" to answer me. I want a specific date.】

Zero: You said on June 6th that it would take at most three months, so how about we meet on September 20th?

He stared at the phone screen, waiting for the other party's answer.

Jiang Mian was still working hard in the shop and didn't see the message he sent at all.

Yu Zerong lowered his eyelids. He hated online dating.
