A chair was placed in front of her, so she obediently sat down.

"I wonder what business you have with me?"

Lu Zhixia said directly, "Auntie, I think you're very good at making noodles. Have you ever considered working in another city?"

Fang Zhen, "Going to work in another city? To work for you?"

Lu Zhixia said, "It's like this, I'm going to open a restaurant soon, mainly serving dumplings and stir-fries. I tried your noodles and thought they were pretty good. If you're willing to develop your business in another city, can we talk about it?"

Looking into the two girls' sincere eyes, Fang Zhen asked, "Regarding wages and accommodation..."

Lu Zhixia said, "First of all, we will definitely arrange a private room for you. As for your salary, I can only give you 30 yuan a month for now. If the restaurant does well, I will give you a share of the profits."

Upon hearing about the large sum of money, Fang Zhen's eyes lit up. He knew he only earned 10 yuan a month working himself to the bone, and was constantly bullied and mistreated by his manager.

"When will your restaurant open?"

Lu Zhixia: "Next month should be enough, because the house has already started renovations."

Fang Zhen: "Then it's a deal, you can't lie to me."

Lu Zhixia said, "I can pay you a month's salary in advance."

Fang Zhen waved her hand, "No need to give me the money first."

Lu Zhixia said, "We're both honest people. I'll leave you my address. If you've thought it over, you can come find me in half a month."

Fang Zhen realized this was also a way out for her, and nodded heavily.

"Okay, I'll come find you once I've figured it out."

Lu Zhixia took out a pen and paper and left her an address. "One is my current address, and the other is the house I'm currently renovating. You can find me no matter which one you choose."

Looking at the neat handwriting and the sincere eyes, Fang Zhen felt she could take a gamble.

"Then it's settled."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Fang Zhen stood up. "Then I'll head back now."

Lu Zhixia escorted the person downstairs and watched them walk away before turning back upstairs.

When I got back inside and checked my watch, it was already 9:30.

Zhou An'an patted the pillow and said with a seductive expression, "Sleep with me tonight!"

Lu Zhixia said, "Let's get some water first, wash our feet, and then go to sleep."

Zhou An'an sat up and smelled her feet. They did smell a bit. She hadn't wanted to wash them before to save time, but now she had no choice but to.

Lu Zhixia took a basin outside and fetched some water, then returned.

"Should I wash first, or you wash first?"

Zhou An'an took off her socks and put her feet in the tub. "Can't we just wash together?"

Lu Zhixia sat down and took off her socks. "If you don't mind, then I don't mind either!"

Zhou An'an tilted her head and asked her, "Did you know from the beginning that the woman would agree?"

Lu Zhixia said, "I felt that the manager wasn't treating her well, so I thought there was a possibility that she would be poached, but I didn't expect it to happen."

Zhou An'an: "Do you think she can come?"

Lu Zhixia dried her feet with a towel, quickly finished, and handed the towel to her. "I think it's very likely, but there's always a chance something unexpected might happen."

Zhou An'an dried her feet, then looked at the towel in her hand and casually tossed it onto the stool.

"This auntie's noodles are delicious. If they were available in stores, they would definitely be bestsellers."

Lu Zhixia said, "Originally, I only planned to sell dumplings and stir-fries, but this noodle dish is really too delicious. If I can poach people from this restaurant, I guarantee that it will become a hit in a short time!"

Zhou An'an put her arm around her waist and said, "If you become rich, don't forget your sister."

Lu Zhixia poked her nose with her finger, "Don't worry! How could I forget you? Let's go to sleep! We have to get up early tomorrow to catch the train!"

Zhou An'an decisively got out of bed, put on her shoes, turned off the light, and then climbed into bed.

"I used to sleep alone, but now that I'm sleeping with you, I don't know when I'll be able to fall asleep!"

"Then go to the next bed." Lu Zhixia kicked her butt with her foot. "I'm used to sleeping alone too."

"No way! This is probably the only time I'll be able to sleep with you so openly!" Zhou An'an said, then burrowed into the covers. "You'll be marrying Captain Gu soon, and if I wanted to sleep with you like that, he'd kill me!"

Lu Zhixia started thinking about Gu Lingxiao, wondering if he was asleep with their son yet, since the little guy usually needed her to fall asleep.

Shouldn't they be asleep by now?

I heard a steady snore coming from next to me. I turned my head and saw that Zhou An'an had already fallen asleep. This girl said she couldn't sleep, but she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes!
