At the entrance of One Bowl Noodles, a group of young girls in their twenties stood chatting, each looking fresh and vibrant. They were all students from the nearby Zhonghai Normal University.
It was Saturday morning. As soon as they woke up, one of the girls who had come to eat last night had already gathered everyone to come again.
"One Bowl Noodles, Su Qi, that's this place, right?" A girl in a yellow dress pointed at the restaurant's sign and asked a girl with a bun hairstyle standing beside her.
"Yes, this is the place. Let's hurry inside—I can't wait!" The girl with the bun excitedly dashed in.
"Su Qi, remember the bet? If I don't like this noodle, you owe me a bottle of Chanel perfume!" The yellow-dress girl called after her.
She hated noodles the most, but since she was roommates with the bun girl, they had made a bet: if she didn't like One Bowl Noodles, the bun girl would have to give her a perfume bottle.
"Alright, alright, I promise. Let's go! No seats left!" The bun girl pushed open the door and went in.
The others followed one after another.
The restaurant was small, with only a little over ten tables. It had already been filled with neighborhood customers plus Meng Yu. With seven or eight students coming in, it suddenly felt cramped.
No seats left!
Seeing the new guests, the waiter Wang Xiumei hurried over with the menu. "Hello everyone, what noodles would you like?"
"I want a large bowl of Second-thin noodles, no scallions or coriander," the bun girl ordered. Then she asked the others, "What about you all?"
"I'll have a large bowl of Second-thin noodles too, scallions yes, no coriander."
"I want a large bowl of Hair-thin noodles…"
"I want a large bowl of Third-thin noodles…"
Before long, all the students had ordered.
"Waiter, there's no place to sit, where should we eat?" Su Qi, who had been here last night, asked anxiously.
Just then, the neighborhood customers had finished eating and, seeing so many new guests, stood up and said goodbye to Su Zhu and Chenchen.
Su Zhu originally didn't want to take money, but since everyone had scanned the payment code, she had no choice.
She thanked everyone repeatedly and personally saw the neighbors out.
Now the restaurant was left with just the students and Meng Yu.
"Wow, have you noticed? The boss is so beautiful!" The bun girl whispered to the yellow-dress girl.
"Yes, especially that kind of determination shaped by life," the yellow-dress girl covered her heart, "so charming, I'm falling for her!"
While they were whispering, a little girl in a white dress stood up from a chair behind the counter.
Everyone was stunned.
"Wow, such a pretty little girl!"
"She's like a fairy tale princess!"
"How much virtue must one accumulate in a past life to be born this cute!"
"Oh my God, there really are such beautiful little girls in this world, love her!"
Not only the girls but even Meng Yu in the corner was dazzled. The little girl wasn't just pretty, she was full of spirit — no wonder even the heavens envied her.
Then Chenchen spoke. Her soft, gentle voice seemed to melt everyone immediately.
"Dear big sisters, and the very handsome big brothers, hello everyone! My name is Chenchen, I'm the owner of this noodle shop. Thank you all for coming to my home to eat noodles. I'll sing a song for you, okay?"
"Yes!"
Clap clap clap...
With hand gestures accompanying, Chenchen's pure, clear childlike voice began:
"Sending you my little heart,"
"Giving you a flower."
"You are in my life,"
"Bringing so much emotion."
"You are my angel,"
"Guiding me all the way."
"No matter how time changes,"
"My love turns into song."
"Listen to me say thank you,"
"For having you, warming all seasons."
"Thank you, grateful to have you,"
"The world is more beautiful."
"I want to thank you, because of you,"
"Love always in my heart."
"Thank you, grateful to have you,"
"Passing happiness along."
...
"Thank you, grateful to have you,"
"Passing happiness along."
When Chenchen finished singing, no one spoke. Everyone was immersed in the beauty of the song — it was a song none of them had ever heard before, and Chenchen's ethereal, pure voice made it sound like heaven itself, cleansing their souls.
Clap clap clap...
Meng Yu started the applause, which was immediately joined by everyone else, thunderous and overwhelming, almost lifting the restaurant's roof.
"So beautiful!"
"What's this song called? Why have I never heard it before?"
"I feel like my ears are pregnant!"
"Totally in love!"
Su Qi rushed over to the glass display on the counter, excitedly asking Chenchen, "Little sister, what was the name of the song you just sang?"
"This song is called 'Listen to Me Say Thank You.' My mom wrote it especially for me. She says I'm her angel and thanks me for coming into this world to be with her!" Chenchen said proudly.
