Chapter 72: Yuan Zhou’s Counterattack

Translator: Xiong Guoqi Editor: Desmond

“Don’t play anymore,” with a helpless tone, Yuan Zhou took a look at the still screaming band

and shouted .

“Boss Yuan finally opens the door . ” Ling Hong went up and greeted him .

“Yeap . ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head .

“Ok, you can all leave now . ” Ling Hong clapped his hands and immediately the band stopped

playing .

Instantly, the whole world fell silent .

Now, everyone felt that the term quiet was a wonderful adjective .

“Luckily the young master got up . But he was most unlikely to fall asleep uner such

circumstances . My ear almost became deaf . ” The grandpa that stood at the back rubbed his ears

and heaved a sigh .

“Boss Yuan, you have prepared the Soup Dumplings today, right?” Ling Hong asked luodly

subconsciously .

“No . It’s too late . I don’t have enough time . ” Seeing that the band had stopped, Yuan Zhou

turned around and went back into the restaurant, letting out a slight sigh of relief .

In just that small time span, Yuan Zhou felt his world nearly exploded due to that deafening

din . Fortunately for him, the noise could not be heard from inside . ”

“Hey, Boss Yuan, can you prepare them right now? I can wait for you . ” Ling Hong shouted aloud .

“You can lower your voice . My ears are going to be deaf soon . ” Though Tank had a body full of

muscles and had a rough appearance, he was, nevertheless, a handsome man who enjoys peace

and quiet . Even he complained about Ling Hong’s loud voice .

“Alright . I know you prefer quiet . I just got used to the noisy surrounding just now . ” Reminded

by Tank, Ling Hong changed his voice to normal .

“Time is insufficient,” Yuan Zhou stood back to his usual position and said gently .

“Ok, fine . Then can we eat the Clear Broth Noodle Soup this morning?” Ling Hong easily gave up

on his favorite Soup Dumplings .

The reason was obviously not because he suddenly didn’t feel like eating it . It was because Yuan

Zhou’s current expression was fairly scary . Ling Hong also knew that the method he used to

wake Yuan Zhou up was rather unaccceptable; however, he couldn’t find any displeasure at all

from his face, only a calm expression . This made Ling Hong unable to stay calm anymore .

He had thought Yuan Zhou would at least show a sullen expression, or in more serious cases,

maybe swear . But right now he acted as if nothing had happened . That, nevertheless, made Ling

Hong not dare to continue his query about the Soup Dumplings .

“Boss Yuan, what time do you usually get up for cooking the Soup Dumplings?” Wu Hai

suddenly asked .

“At 6:00,” Yuan Zhou answered the question simply and quickly .

“Ok . Offer me the Clear Broth Noodle Soup and beef mince today . ” Wu Hai also started to order

his dishes .

Likewise, the grandpa had to take the second best choice and choose the Clear Broth Noodle

Soup .

“All right . Wait a moment . ” Yuan Zhou turned around, begining to prepare dishes .

On the other side, Wu Hai started to wink at Ling Hong and whispered, “Do you understand

now?”

“Yeap, I understand . But will he blacklist me?” Ling Hong had understood clearly what Wu Hai

meant once he opened the mouth . However, he needed to clearly understand the consequences .

“Don’t worry . According to my observations, Boss Yuan only appears aloof . He is actually very

easy to reason with . Last time, a guy actually bought Egg Fried Rice from another restaurant

and came here to eat it . Boss Yuan still gave him a permission . As long as we don’t go against

his rules, everything will be fine . ” Wu Hai revealed an expression of “Trust me and follow my

advice” .

“Ok, that’s fine . Let me try again . ” Ling Hong agreed to Wu Hai’s proposal decisively .

The reason was, of course, also due to his investigation . He found that Yuan Zhou indeed had a

mild temper . For example, he hadn’t revealed any discontented or furious expressions over

what he did this morning until now .

Having heard everything they talked, the edges of Yuan Zhou’s mouth curled up . He thought in

his heart, “No matter how rich you brat is, you still wouldn’t be able to wake me up . ”

That’s right . Who said Yuan Zhou wasn’t angry? Yuan Zhou was so angry that he almost wanted

to hack him with a kitchen knife . However, he had gotten used to pretending to be aloof, thus he

was too lazy to curse now . He would only use the simplest method to let the guy suffer the

consequences of his own actions .

With the belief that two heads are better than one, the several people boisterously agreed upon

a plan . Even the grandpa was involved, pointing out the most realistic problem . Thus one could

see how attractive the Soup Dumplings were .

“How do you plan to solve the public nuisance problem?” The grandpa hit the nail on the head .

“Don’t worry . I will go to each family in the neighborhood and pass them 100 RMB later today

to compensate them for getting up an hour earlier tomorrow . It’s just for one hour, so it

shouldn’t be a problem . ” Ling Hong answered him confidently .

“Ling Hong, are you sure?” Tank worriedly asked .

“No problem . Look, Boss Yuan isn’t angry at all . ” Ling Hong pointed at Yuan Zhou’s face

secretly, which indeed appeared as normal .

“Ok . As you please . ” Tank shrugged, giving up trying to persuade Ling Hong .

“I think the plan is pretty good . ” Ji Lian said in a prim manner .

“Isn’t it because you like this band?” Octopus revealed Ji Lian’s true thoughts without mercy .

“Don’t say that . ” Ji Lian simply admitted it without even blushing and even told Octopus not to

make it public .

Instantly, the several people decided to ignore him . Luckily, at that moment, Yuan Zhou

brought their dishes over to them .

The busy morning and noon made Yuan Zhou decide to recruit a waiter . He not only cooked the

dishes on his own but also had to carry them to the customers . It was truly a tiring job,

especially when there were many customers .

Although Yuan Zhou was worn out from all the work, he still remembered to feed the Maltese

its broth . After that, he went to bed .

It was early in the morning, barely 6:00 . The residents in the neighborhood all got up and

surrounded to watch in the distance . The band was still the same one as yesterday and the

audio electronics were likewise the same .

“I would love you even after I die . I don’t feel good until the very ultimate extent . ”

The lead vocalist was still the same guy, who was shouting and singing hoarsely . As soon as he

opened his mouth, the high notes drifted off into a distance, shocking the conscious of the

people . However drowsy they were, all would be startled awake immediately .

However, Yuan Zhou did not wake up from the cacophony and was still sleeping soundly as if

nothing was happening . Of course, he didn’t set his alarm clock .

Usually, Yuan Zhou couldn’t sleep very well . He usually had to count till a 100 sheep in his mind

before he could fall asleep . However, he fell asleep very soon last night . The restaurant fortified

by the system was extraordinarily quiet, thus it was quite suitable for sleeping .

The shouting and screaming downstairs did not affect Yuan Zhou at all .

After one song ended, the window of Yuan Zhou’s bedroom on the second floor was still tightly

shut, without any reaction .

“Why hasn’t Boss Yuan woken up?” Ling Hong asked in curiosity .

“How do I know? Maybe he is wearing earplugs,” Octopus speculated .

“Earplugs? Yeap, that’s probably true . Let’s have another two songs . I don’t believe he can sleep

in such a din . ” Ling Hong gave the band a signal, letting them continue to sing .

Three songs were originally agreed upon among the several people . If the band sang any longer,

they might be chased on the streets by the urban management officers . Though undeveloped as

this area was, there were, nevertheless, lots of office buildings nearby . Quiet surroundings had

to be maintained .

After the three songs ended, there was still no reaction on the second floor, thus Ling Hong

decided to give up . It wasn’t until 8:30 in the morning did Yuan Zhou open the door .

At the entrance was Ling Hong, who was waiting impatiently .

“Boss Yuan, you’ve gotten really nice earplugs . ” While speaking, Ling Hong gestured a thumbup

to Yuan Zhou and then left after eating breakfast .

Yuan Zhou thought Ling Hong would give up after this attempt . After all, the neighborhood

wouldn’t agree if they made noises for longer time . However, he still underestimated Ling

Hong .

Ling Hong didn’t give up on his plan at all . He ran out and managed to get another band . This

time, he gave 200 RMB to each family in the neighborhood as compensation . A benefit of 200

RMB was pretty nice for getting up one hour earlier .

After all, the noise did not last very long .

At 6:00 in the morning on the third day, another band joined in besides the one for the first two

days . Now there were two bands in all . Furthermore, they were all heavy metal rock bands . The

singing abilities of the lead vocalist in the second band was not so good as the first one, but his

voice was nevertheless quite high and loud . This was Ling Hong’s goal .

The two bands were singing one after another as if they were competing with each other . They

straightaway made the street the location for their live concert . They didn’t just blow of the

roof, even the glass seemed like it could shatter any moment .

Even with such a earth-shaking situation, there was still no reaction on the second floor .

“Boss Yuan is not asleep . He is definitely dead,” Ling Hong shouted desperately .

“Are you going to break the door down now?” While listening to the music blissfully, Ji Lian

gave a bad idea .

Was he going to break down the door, or break down the door, or break down the door? This was

really such a difficult multiple-choice question .
