Lou Mingyu is the young owner of a trendy restaurant.
Though his restaurant is popular online, it stands out from other trendy places in a rather unique way.
Other restaurants become famous because they each have a specialty no one else can match.
Lou Mingyu's place became famous because...
Wait, someone in this world really opened an instant noodle shop!
What, the owner of the noodle shop is handsome?
Come on, let's go eat noodles and ogle the handsome owner!
The unexpected boom in business left lazy Lou Mingyu completely at a loss.
He didn't have time to take payments, and he didn't want to hire too many people. So he had to make the shop self-service, with customers paying on their own.
Maybe people these days were just honest, or maybe the noodles at his shop really were that good. Either way, after a few months in business, he still hadn't had a single dine-and-dash customer.
He thought things would carry on peacefully like that.
Until one night, when he was checking the books.
Lou Mingyu: Why are we short the price of five bowls of noodles? Come on, people still dine and dash over instant noodles in this day and age?
For several days in a row, he found that the books were short the price of five bowls every night.
Lou Mingyu: Did someone pick me to fleece over and over?
Lou Mingyu checked the security footage and caught the repeat offender happily chowing down in his shop.
Lin Yuyang: Fuck, I pushed my luck too far and got caught! Can I pretend it's my first time?
Lou Mingyu glared at him coldly. "You ate for free again and again. Are you trying to dine and dash again today?"
