Tang Wenhao frowned when he heard this. He quickly explained, "How can this be possible? 20% is too little. The 50-50 split I mentioned is based on net profit, without considering the cost input at all. 20% is really unfair to you!"
However, Xu Congyi shook his head and said in a firm tone: "Brother Wenhao, you really don't need to persuade me anymore. 20% is enough for me. You need to worry about everything here, and all I can do is provide the recipe of the sauce. In comparison, you have put in much more effort than me. Therefore, 20% of the profit is already very satisfactory for me." Moreover, when the restaurant business is stable, Xu Congyi will rarely come here, and he will not be able to help with the management.
After spending so much time together, Tang Wenhao also knew Xu Congyi's temper. Seeing that Xu Congyi insisted on splitting the profit in 20%, he understood that she was not being polite or making concessions.
"Brother Wenhao, maybe we will continue to cooperate in the future. I am lazy and don't understand business matters, so our future cooperation will still be left to you to take care of, and it will be very hard for you." Xu Congyi smiled.
"That's absolutely no problem!" When Tang Wenhao heard Xu Congyi say that there would be more projects for them to collaborate on in the future, he immediately patted his chest and expressed his opinion.
When the restaurant's business stabilized, Xu Congyi would not have to go there every day. Perhaps because she was too tired from working on the restaurant's business, Xu Congyi just wanted to lie down these days and felt weak. Seeing this, her family thought she was just too tired, so Xu's mother and Li Dahua prepared delicious food for Xu Congyi in different ways.
As a result, Xu Congyi had no energy in the evenings these few days. When Shen Xiao was studying at the dining table, she would curl up on the sofa, put her legs on the coffee table, put a pillow under her calves, and watch TV comfortably under a blanket. In order not to disturb Shen Xiao who was studying hard, Xu Congyi also muted the TV sound and just watched the screen. Anyway, she was watching "Legend of Huan Huan", and the absence of sound did not affect her. She could accurately "fill in" the lines and emotional ups and downs of each character in her mind by reviewing it countless times.
As she watched, Xu Congyi felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She thought it was because she had eaten too much at night. Tonight, Li Dahua made steamed bread, which was served with a big bowl of winter melon meatball soup and homemade spicy mushroom meat sauce. She took a bite of the bread with meat sauce, a bite of winter melon meatball, and a sip of soup. It was so delicious that she ate a lot without realizing it.
Xu Congyi thought that she might have indigestion, so she went to the bedroom to get a digestion tablet. As soon as she stood up, she felt a warm current under her body. Xu Congyi suddenly realized that the discomfort she had felt these days was due to her menstruation.
It's no wonder Xu Congyi's reaction was so slow. She hadn't been here since she came here, and she had long forgotten about it. She turned around and saw that it was not on the sofa, so she ran to the bathroom. She washed the soiled underwear in the bathroom and hung it in the bedroom first. After all, Shen Xiao was still hanging it on the balcony and she felt a little embarrassed.
Shen Xiao noticed that something was wrong with Xu Congyi when she stood up. Seeing that Xu Congyi stayed in the bathroom for a long time before coming out, Shen Xiao walked over and asked Xu Congyi what was wrong.
"Let me... uh, that..." Xu Congyi hesitated for a long time, desperately searching his mind for the ancient name for menstruation.
"Have you had your period?" Shen Xiao asked in a low voice.
"Yes, yes! My period has come!" Xu Congyi nodded quickly to confirm, with a relieved expression on his face.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiao asked Xu Congyi to rest on the sofa. Shen Xiao had never had contact with girls, but he knew that menstruation would make the body very uncomfortable. In his memory, when he was a child, his mother always felt uncomfortable for a few days. During those days, his father would be particularly considerate. Not only would he warn him not to make his mother angry, but he would also personally cook glutinous rice balls with brown sugar water for his mother. He would also be hugged by his mother, sharing that sweetness and warmth. That scene still warms his heart.
Thinking of this, Shen Xiao quickly said, "Yi Yi, do you have any brown sugar in your room? I'll make you some brown sugar water. Drinking it will make you feel better."
Xu Congyi looked at Shen Xiao, with a hint of teasing in her eyes: "Brother Shen Xiao, how do you know so much about women drinking brown sugar water during their menstrual period? Have you ever cooked brown sugar water for a girl before?" There was a hint of joking in her tone.
Shen Xiao's skin had been toughened up by Xu Congyi, and he no longer blushed when Xu Congyi teased him. "You are such a frivolous girl!" Shen Xiao ruffled Xu Congyi's hair.
