Chapter 468: Chapter 457: Boss Huang, You’re Going to Get Yourself Killed Like This

When Huang Tao arrived at the restaurant, he noticed that the queue outside the shop was significantly longer than yesterday morning.

Many new faces!

"Good morning, Boss Huang."

"Hurry up. I missed both meals yesterday, and I’m dying to taste your cooking."

"Boss Huang, your restaurant made it to the trending list again, and it’s number one this time!"

"Boss Huang, you’re incredible! Even a top-tier celebrity like Liu Feifei came because of your fame but unfortunately got turned away last night."

"I saw last night’s trending list. Honestly, if we’re talking about frequency, I’d support you, Boss Huang, because at this rate, your restaurant is on its way to becoming a celebrity hotspot."

"Hey, hey, hey, be more confident. Remove the ’on its way’ part. Boss Huang’s place has already become a celebrity hangout. Don’t you remember last time when a bunch of lesser-known stars checked in here? Maybe they weren’t famous enough, but none of the customers recognized them. Still, those stars bought trending spots later, only to be exposed and ridiculed by netizens."

"This just shows that to ride the wave of fame, the foundation needs to be solid. Like Liu Feifei, her fame is so huge that even fully disguised, people still recognize her instantly, allowing her to dominate the top five trending spots with four topics."

Many regulars were aware that Huang Tao’s restaurant was trending last night.

After all, many of these patrons are seasoned internet surfers!

"I know about the trending stuff last night. I saw it too. To be honest, it was the big star Liu Feifei who trended, and my little shop just caught the wave, but being on the trending list is pretty great! A lot of new customers showed up this morning!"

Huang Tao chuckled and couldn’t help joking, "I’m quite happy. To celebrate, I’ve decided to open half an hour later this morning!"

The neighbors and new and old customers: "..."

Wow, Boss Huang, saying things like that could get you beaten up...

Of course.

He’s never getting beaten, not in a million years!

Who else can satisfy all their cravings like Huang Tao?

If he were beaten up, they’d never taste such delicious food again in this lifetime!

So!

He’s cherished and protected!

Old Qin lightly fanned himself, nonchalantly saying, "No worries, Boss Huang. As long as you’re happy, I’ll play you some melancholy music."

The chubby middle-aged man laughed, "Boss Huang, if I fart at the entrance, you won’t mind, will you?"

Uh~

Mind your manners, mind your manners!

"Just kidding, just kidding!"

Huang Tao waved with a smile at the regulars, saying, "This morning, we’ll have two new dishes: soup dumplings and wontons, but don’t worry, we’ll open on time."

Upon hearing about the new dishes, regulars became excited and felt lucky for not being lazy today and queuing as usual.

Otherwise, they would have missed out on these new dishes for sure.

Of course, they no longer teased Huang Tao, urging him instead to hurry inside and prepare more.

Li Yuanfu and the others felt the same way!

They felt lucky to run into new dishes today.

Not just one but two!

Hahaha~

This was totally worth it!

They felt as if they hit the jackpot!

In their eyes, they were more delighted than closing a billion-dollar deal!

Liu Feifei’s female fans’ eyes were practically glued to Huang Tao’s face.

"He’s the boss of this shop? So handsome!"

"Yeah, yeah, so handsome! Better looking than celebrities!"

"I heard there’s a cutting board worth three hundred thousand in the shop, oh wait, it’s worth half a million. Do you guys think this boss might be a hidden rich heir?"

"Quite possible! Like the protagonist in those CEO romance dramas."

"He must be tired of the chaotic lifestyle of the rich, which is why he hides among ordinary people to experience life."

"I heard that the staff and assistants here are all rich kids!"

"If so, it explains why our Feifei would compliment this place and visit, as celebrities often have intricate connections with wealthy heirs. Even if it’s not about marrying into wealth, they often mingle, and for someone to catch Feifei’s eye, they must be of considerable status since Feifei is a top star!"

Several female fans kept imagining and creating scenarios for Huang Tao, speculating about the relationship between Liu Feifei and Huang Tao.

Of course.

In their hearts, naturally, they didn’t want their idol’s career to be interrupted by romance.

But as face-value enthusiasts, they felt the two fit perfectly together.

They really want to ship this CP!

They adore this couple!

Huang Tao, who was unknowingly being paired up randomly, was oblivious.

Because at that moment, he had already entered the store under the eager and expectant gaze of the customers.

"Boss!"

As soon as Huang Tao stepped in, Li Chengzhan, who had some free time, came forward first, chuckling, "You’re here. Yesterday afternoon, did you have a good time back in your hometown?"

Li Chengzhan learned from Huang Tao’s social media post that he went back to his hometown yesterday and took Xuanxuan fishing.

They caught a big carp!

Huang Tao laughed, "Yeah, it was so relaxing that I didn’t want to come back."

"I really want to take a long vacation. These past few months, I’ve been working myself to the bone and haven’t rested much. Sometimes, I really wonder why I’m working so hard."

Li Chengzhan: "..."

Hey hey hey, you’re being overly sentimental!

He gave his boss a speechless look that said, "I seriously suspect you’re bragging like a Versailles novel protagonist."

Although the boss has indeed been quite tired due to busy work lately, the business is thriving. The daily revenue is over a hundred thousand, the monthly revenue is over three million, and the annual revenue is about fifty million...

The boss sighs when he talks about it, but there’s a delighted look on his face. Isn’t this exactly like those Versailles brags?

Huang Tao ignored Li Chengzhan’s look, changed into his chef’s uniform, and went into the kitchen.

He washed his hands.

Then, with three assistant chefs, he began the morning rush.

However, while he was busy, more customers from other provinces came to line up outside the shop.

"Is this the place?"

"Even my idol Liu Feifei couldn’t resist coming over to taste the food. I’m really curious~ ah!"

"When I first saw it on the trending searches, I thought it was fake news. I didn’t expect it to be true. This completely changed my perception of my idol Liu Feifei!"

"Oh my, this restaurant’s business is really as good as said online. A bunch of people are queueing up this early."

More and more customers were saying similar things, joining the end of the line.

Huang Tao was quite surprised.

It’s not his first time going viral.

Previous times when he went viral, the effect was good, but still.

That noon there were over a hundred new customers.

But compared to this time, there is still quite a difference.

It’s been only ten hours or so since Liu Feifei showed up at his shop!

New customers came, and there were quite a few!

At 6 o’clock, the line outside the small restaurant was long, even more than usual for this time.

It seemed like a hundred people or so!

The parking spots along the road were already full.

Huang Ziqing, as usual, drove to West City Old Street, but when he arrived...

Oh boy, no parking spots!

Looking outside the window, the line stretched to the corner.

What’s going on?

He instinctively checked the time.

That’s right!

It’s only 6 o’clock!

He usually comes at this time, and there’s a line, but not this long!

Seriously, what’s going on today?

He had no choice but to reverse the car back to the street entrance and find a parking spot near the residential area.

After parking, he ran back to West City Old Street.

He found the queue had grown even larger.

Huang Ziqing felt a headache, and could only quickly get in line, hoping for the best.

Praying he could still buy breakfast this morning!

Just got in line, and Wang Zhiheng came along.

Seeing Huang Ziqing was there too, he greeted him with a smile, "You just arrived, Old Huang?"

Huang Ziqing nodded, "Yeah!"

"What’s going on this morning? Why is the business suddenly so good?"

Wang Zhiheng casually replied, "Look at your words. Boss Huang’s business is never bad! There’s always a long line!"

Huang Ziqing still didn’t understand, "But at this time... there were people before, but not this many!"

Saying this.

Wang Zhiheng suddenly realized that indeed, there were a lot more people than usual this morning, and he couldn’t understand either.

He hadn’t paid attention to the trending topics these days.

Now, he felt a bit anxious.

Looks like he’ll need to come earlier in the future, or he won’t get anything to eat.

But fortunately, today was a day off, so he could afford to wait a bit longer, hopefully getting what he wanted.

While praying, he shared his thoughts with Huang Ziqing, "Probably because of the New Year’s holiday, customers from afar are coming over!"

Huang Ziqing nodded in agreement.

That reasoning made sense!

Wang Zhoubin and Sun Linhai rode over and saw the long line, which left them doubting.

They checked the time, looked at the line, deliberated for a while, and walked away.

They didn’t have time to queue! 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Though it was New Year’s and their team was on holiday, unfortunately, they both needed to be on duty today.

They thought of coming early to queue and then head to their place, but seeing the line...

This morning getting breakfast from Delicious Restaurant seems hard...

Very hard...
