"Goddess, do you have any book recommendations? I'd like to buy a few to broaden my knowledge."
Although the fans were very excited, they all remained respectful and consciously kept a certain distance from Chu Yu.
This was also Chu Yu's first time being so close to fans. She coughed lightly, slightly embarrassed, and pointed to the standee next to her, trying to appear calm.
The sign prominently displayed the words "[Recommended by Chu Yu ]", and the rows of book titles listed below were those that Chu Yu had selected and recommended to his fans.
Soon, the fans spontaneously began to buy the books recommended by their idol and line up to pay.
Chu Yu was mainly responsible for processing customer payments, while Chu Chen was responsible for adding shelves and cleaning the shop environment.
The three shops all had decent sales figures by the end of the morning.
After all, today is the first day of business, and each group of guests has the support of loyal fans, so the sales revenue is naturally not bad.
Around noon, the production team delivered boxed lunches to each guest, marking the start of their lunch break.
After attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony in the morning, Jiang Luwen returned to the film crew to continue his work.
However, Meng Fuyu and Gu Jinhuai, two very busy people, strangely chose to stay at the commercial street.
Generally speaking, these two should be extremely busy with their work. The director felt it was already a great honor to be able to invite them to the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and he never expected them to stay.
Inside the makeshift sunshade set up by the production team, the director walked in with a smile, carrying a boxed lunch.
" Young Master Meng, President Gu, I've brought you your lunch."
As soon as he finished speaking, the director stopped in his tracks.
He noticed that Gu Jinhuai and Meng Fuyu inside the shed were staring at each other with cold expressions, for reasons unknown.
Gu Jinhuai leaned back on the recliner with his arms crossed, glancing coldly at Meng Fuyu across from him.
Meng Fuyu sat upright in his chair, looking back calmly without glancing to the side.
The director stood there dumbfounded, holding his lunchbox, suddenly at a loss for words.
Logically speaking, since both are young men from wealthy families, shouldn't they hit it off immediately and find common ground?
How did it turn into something like mortal enemies?
Fortunately, Meng Fuyu was the first to notice the director bringing over the boxed lunches. He regained his gentle expression slightly, "Thank you for personally bringing us these boxed lunches, Director."
After speaking, Meng Fuyu calmly stood up, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and walked over to take the boxed lunch from the director.
The director snapped out of his daze and quickly shook his head modestly, "It's no trouble at all. It's truly kind of you two incredibly busy people to come and help with the program."
Meng Fuyu smiled, said nothing more, took his lunchbox, returned to his seat, and slowly opened it to eat.
Gu Jinhuai quickly stood up and nodded to the director opposite him, "I just asked my assistant to prepare some extra food for everyone. The food truck should be here soon. I'll go check on the shop first."
The director looked pleasantly surprised. "Thank you so much, President Gu, for remembering us. Okay, then you can go ahead and take a look. I'll have a staff member pick up your assistant."
The daily filming work is a very physically demanding task for the staff.
Therefore, everyone welcomes the benefit of extra meals.
Meng Fuyu, who was unpacking his lunchbox, frowned slightly, realizing that he hadn't even considered having an extra meal.
However, the main reason why Meng Fuyu suddenly became hostile towards Gu Jinhuai was not because of anything else.
Just now, and he didn't know if he was overthinking it, but Meng Fuyu felt that Gu Jinhuai's gaze seemed to be fixed on Wen Zhixin.
A man in love has practically zero IQ; he'll instantly explode at any man who might pose a threat to him.
Especially when facing a man like Gu Jinhuai who is even more outstanding than him, Meng Fuyu simply cannot remain indifferent.
Therefore, Meng Fuyu ultimately decided to stay at the scene.
As for company matters, he can simply hold a video conference to approve them, which won't cause any delays.
After seeing Gu Jinhuai leave, Meng Fuyu narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of apprehension.
She was also thinking to herself: Could Gu Jinhuai's sudden decision to go to the shop at this time be to find Wen Zhixin?
Meng Fuyu's face darkened, and he didn't even bother to eat. He turned around and quickly followed Gu Jinhuai.
Just as Meng Fuyu and Gu Jinhuai were each lost in their own thoughts, the assistant arrived near the commercial street in the passenger seat of the food truck.
The crew members who were waiting at the street corner for the food truck quickly went to meet it.
"Everyone, don't be shy, eat whatever you want, our President Gu will pay!" the assistant shouted generously, and staff from various departments all gathered around excitedly.
As everyone lined up in front of the food truck, the assistant discreetly carried a thermos and quietly left the crowd.
This insulated container contains red date and barley porridge, whose main functions are to replenish qi, nourish the stomach, and remove dampness.
It has excellent skin-care benefits for women.
The assistant and director inquired about Gu Jinhuai's whereabouts, then quickly and carefully carried the insulated container towards the shop.
At that moment, Gu Jinhuai happened to walk into the milk tea shop run by Wen Zhixin and her brother.
Meng Fuyu, who was following behind, quickly caught up and looked at Gu Jinhuai with a wary expression. "Why is President Gu in such a hurry to inspect this place without even eating?"
These words were actually Meng Fuyu's way of testing the waters.
Gu Jinhuai didn't pay much attention to Meng Fuyu's thoughts, but he also didn't give him a friendly look, only coldly saying, "Didn't you come over without eating?"
Meng Fuyu was immediately speechless.
Then, Gu Jinhuai's assistant came running over carrying a thermos.
" President Gu, this is what you asked me to prepare separately." The assistant was breathing a little rapidly, probably because he had been running around in a hurry.
