e going back on the next Chinese New Year. ”

”It ’s fine if you ’re too busy.
When working outside, don ’t keep thinking of coming back home.
We are doing good, ” Lu Yun repeated.

Lu Cheng started eating silent and only spoke after a while, ”I have time during the next Chinese New Year. ”

”This meatball is so weird.
It ’s both sweet and sour, yet it ’s very tasty, ” Lu Yun said in astonishment after trying the Swedish Meatball.

”I heard this is a renowned dish of a foreign country, ” Lu Cheng said.

”Isn ’t it just some tomatoes stuffed in meatballs? How is this a renowned dish? ” Lu Yun said while smacking his lips.

”When Boss Yuan releases a good porridge dish, bring mom here as well.
Let her try Boss Yuan ’s cooking skills, ” Lu Cheng said with a serious expression.

”No way.
This place is way too expensive, ” Lu Yun immediately rejected, ”We are better off buying some ingredients back home and I can cook for you. ”

”I told you, your son is making big money.
Don ’t worry, ” Lu Cheng once again used his salary as an argument.

”Even if you are making big money, you can ’t squander it off like this.
The price of houses is so expensive nowadays.
Apart from salary, everything is increasing in price.
Since you are making a lot, you should save them up, ” Lu Yun insisted.

”Ok, let ’s not talk about this.
Come, continue eating, ” Lu Cheng gave up and switched the topic back to the food instead.

Lu Cheng was sure that his father would be able to finish the dishes ordered.
After all, the prices were not cheap.
They wouldn ’t be able to bear wasting such expensive food.

As the two were busy eating, two young men entered the restaurant.
They were talking to each other and their voices were quite loud.

”This is the place that KFC kid mentioned? ” asked a short-haired male after scanning the restaurant.

”Yeah.
This is Yuan Zhou ’s restaurant, ” a man wearing glasses who looked scholarly answered with a nod.

”I wonder how it would feel to eat here, ” the short-haired male nodded and said after taking a seat.

The two started ordering, while Lu Cheng and his father had just finished their meal.

”Are you full, dad? If not, we can order more, ” Lu Cheng asked after looking at the perfectly clean plates and bowls on the table.

”Yeah, I ’m full.
After sending me to the bus station, get back to work, ” Lu Yun immediately stopped his son from ordering more.

”I ’m taking the afternoon off.
Why don ’t I bring you around Chengdu? ” Lu Cheng asked while they were leaving the restaurant.

”It ’s fine.
It ’s not easy for you to get a chance to rest.
Go back home and take a nap, ” Lu Yun shook his head and rejected.

”I know you are worried about leaving mom alone at home.
Let me send you to the bus station then, ” Lu Cheng nodded and immediately called for a taxi after arriving at the intersection.

The bus station wasn ’t very far from Yuan Zhou ’s restaurant.
The taxi fare was only about 30RMB.

Before getting onto the bus, Lu Yun was still nagging at his son and kept reminding him about many things.
He was getting quite long-winded.

Lu Cheng kept giving the same replies, ”Don ’t worry.
I ’m living a fulfilling life here. ”

Only then did Lu Yun felt less worried and got on the bus.

Looking at the slowly departing bus, Lu Cheng turned around to leave.
At the same time, he took his phone out and made a call.

”Sorry, Supervisor Luo.
I did not notice your call earlier.
What can I do for you? ” Lu Cheng said modestly and cordially.

It was unknown what was being said to him, but Lu Cheng kept explaining without a stop, ”Don ’t worry.
I ’m coming over immediately. ”

Then, he hung up the call and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
He made another call while heading towards the public bus stop.

After getting on the bus, Lu Cheng finally had some free time for himself.
Thus, he took out his phone and checked the balance of his account.

”Luckily, I had stocked up on instant noodles earlier.
It will last me for about 10 days.
I will have enough to survive the remaining few days. ” Lu Cheng ’s heart soured when he saw the less than 300RMB he had in his account.

Lu Cheng was in fact a salesman.
He sold medicine and each month, he got a salary of about 5,000RMB.
This was in fact a decent salary.
After all, he was only a fresh graduate.

Out of the 5,000RMB he made, he sent 4,000RMB back home.
This left only 1,000RMB for himself.
In the meal earlier, he spent about 1,300RMB.
This had already surpassed his budget.

”Hiss.
Boss Yuan ’s restaurant is really expensive.
No matter how good the food there is, it will be hard for me to be able to go there again, ” Lu Cheng muttered when he calculated the price of the food there.
At the same time, a longing look appeared on his face.

Unfortunately, the price was truly so expensive his heart ached when eating there.
However, it was good that he could treat his father to a decent meal.
It was worth it to make his father worry less about him.
