In the hall, tool man Li Nian was mopping the floor frantically, regretting that he had posted a message privately last night, and almost lost his long-term meal ticket.

Seeing Li Xiang coming out of the basement with an umbrella, Li Nian greeted him with a flattering face, hesitating: "Brother, that..."

Li Xiang patted Li Nian's shoulder and showed a comforting look: "Don't say anything, brother knows you didn't mean it."

Li Nian's nose was slightly sour when he heard it, and he was moved to a mess.

It's true that they are brothers and dear friends!

Li Xiang touched his nose without blushing and heartbeat: "Well, I have to go out for a while, you take care of the store."

Li Nian nodded seriously, raised his hand and hammered his chest: "Don't worry, brother, respect!"

If it were normal times, it would be impossible to watch the store, and it would be impossible to work, but today it is just a little compensation for my brother.

"Hey, brother, it's not raining outside, why are you holding an umbrella?"

"Because I look handsome."

Li Xiang grabbed a handful of messy hair, spun the black umbrella around his fingertips, and turned to walk out of the coffee shop.

[No, let's just wear pajamas inside and a windbreaker outside to go out? That's too unrefined! ]

[Oh, don't pay attention to these details, a real man is free and easy. ]

[Hey, hey, hey, am I the only one who thinks this striped pajamas looks like a uniform in a mental hospital? ]

Maybe it's because it's Monday, there are only a few pedestrians on the street.

Li Xiang subconsciously shook his head and tried not to pay attention to the noise of the dog in his mind. But as soon as he walked out of the store, a feeling of being peeped came to his mind.

Li Xiang stretched quietly, inadvertently taking in the scene of the whole street, then crossed the street with his hands in his pockets and walked into a tea restaurant with local characteristics.

It was past breakfast time, and the tea restaurant was a little deserted. Only a few aunties who went out to buy groceries gathered together to drink tea and chat.

One moment she said mysteriously that the old man Wang next door was shameless, knocking on her door in the middle of the night, and the next moment she teased her best friend that she was in her fifties and still wore black stockings, not afraid of hurting her old waist...

Li Xiang chose a seat by the window, and the polite waiter came up to him and said warmly while pouring tea: "Sir, what would you like to eat?"

Li Xiang put down his umbrella, flipped through the menu and closed it again, looking like he hadn't woken up yet: "Any recommendations?"

The waiter smiled warmly: "Our store's pork trotter siu mai is the signature, and we have a promotion today, buy five get one free, and there are exactly five in a basket, why don't you try one basket?"

Li Xiang leaned back in his chair and laughed: "Buy five get one free, it's such a good deal! This So, you bring me the free shaomai first, and put the five shaomai that need to be paid for first. I will help you sell them later. The money belongs to the store and the performance belongs to you. This way, we will not lose money, and it will be a win-win situation for all three parties! "

The waiter was confused when he heard this, scratched his head and pondered for a while: "It sounds like this, but I have never sold it this way before..."

Li Xiang took a sip of tea: "That's because I didn't come before. You see, I just gave you a little guidance, and your thinking and pattern have changed, right?"

As he was talking, a young man in a gray coat and a crew cut pushed the door and walked in. His facial features were angular. He seemed to look around the room unintentionally, then chose a table by the door, sat with his back to Li Xiang, and started playing with his phone.

Li Xiang raised his lips and said calmly, "Business is coming."

"Look, the guy has a full middle and a round face. This is the face of someone who likes to eat pork trotter siomai!"

"Now go and recommend him a basket of siomai. I'm sure he will buy it. By the way, bring me the free siomai in five minutes and add more vinegar."

Face? Can this thing read faces?

The waiter nodded doubtfully, and then walked towards the gray-clothed young man. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell for a while. After all, the performance of selling a basket of pork trotter siomai was real.

Alas, to support the family!

Li Xiang stood up at the right time and walked slowly to the bathroom.

The waiter came to the young man in gray, sorted out his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Sir, what do you need? Pig's trotter steamed buns are our signature dish, and the price is affordable..."

The young man in gray was obviously absent-minded. He saw through the screen of his mobile phone that Li Xiang had already walked into the bathroom. He immediately stood up and said, "Okay, this is it," and then followed him to the bathroom.

The waiter was slightly stunned. Oh, the customer just now really said it right!

Is there really a face that likes to eat steamed buns?

The young man in gray walked lightly and skillfully, and came to the door of the bathroom without making a sound.

He first looked around and confirmed that there was no back door or window for slipping away in the tea restaurant. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then returned to his seat.

At this time, the waiter had already brought a basket of steaming pig's trotter steamed buns, and the aroma was fragrant.

The young man in gray sat on the other side of the table, eating steamed buns while keeping an eye on the direction of the bathroom.

He chewed slowly, and after all five steamed buns were eaten, he looked down at his phone and saw that six minutes had passed.

The young man in gray frowned slightly. He hadn't seen anyone come out for such a long time. Could he be constipated?

He took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, got up and walked to the bathroom.

The bathrooms in the tea restaurant are divided into men's and women's, men on the left and women on the right.

The young man in gray walked into the men's bathroom quickly, his eyes swept across the empty urinals, and instantly locked onto three independent stalls with closed doors.

He walked lightly to the first stall, pretended to push the door open casually, and there was no one.

He walked to the second stall, gently pushed the door open a little and peeked inside, empty.

The young man in gray turned his head to look at the last stall, pondered for a moment, and after thinking of a set of words, he slowly walked forward and pushed the door directly.

It's also empty? !

The young man in gray was stunned in place. He looked around again and made sure that there was no place in the bathroom where he could hide, unless someone got into the toilet and escaped.

What happened? Could it be that Li Xiang disappeared out of thin air!

At this moment, in the lobby of the tea restaurant.

Li Xiang, wearing a windbreaker, walked out of the bathroom and walked back to his seat.

A minute ago, the waiter had already brought the complimentary steamed buns to the table as requested, steaming hot, and with a bottle of old vinegar.

Li Xiang nodded with satisfaction, picked up the siu mai with chopsticks, first gently bit a little bit of the skin, let the hot steam inside dissipate, and then picked up the vinegar bottle and poured in an appropriate amount of aged vinegar.

In this way, the cold vinegar not only neutralized the heat of the siu mai, but also stimulated the freshness of the pork trotter filling to the maximum extent.

Li Xiang put the siu mai into his mouth and took a bite. The vinegar mixed with the meat fat instantly burst into his mouth, melting in his mouth, and the lips and teeth were fresh and fragrant.

"Well, delicious!"

Li Xiang wiped the grease on his mouth and gave a thumbs up to the waiter: "When the guest comes out later, help me thank him for the treat."

The waiter nodded with a bright smile. He had already determined in his heart that this unkempt young man was a face-reading expert, and hurriedly agreed: "No problem! Hey, sir, you must come often in the future, we can cooperate more!"

"Hey, if possible, I would like to learn face-reading from you..."

Li Xiang turned around and waved, picked up the umbrella and walked out of the tea restaurant.

At this time, an old lady rushed out of the bathroom, pointing at Li Xiang's back in indignation and a little shy, lowering her voice and gritting her teeth:

"It's him, he just squatted at the door of the women's toilet for five or six minutes, and scared me so much that I didn't even dare to breathe in there!"

"Oh my god, he looks so delicate, but I didn't expect him to be a pervert!"

"Fortunately, you were not discovered by him, otherwise you would have suffered a great loss!"
