Chapter 55 Banquet Preparation

Ye Shuyi saw Li Kaile coming in and said that he came earlier than usual.

Li Kaile smiled and said, "I drank coffee last night and didn't sleep all night, so I just came to work early."

"oh oh."

After saying that, he looked at the direction Xiao Pingliang had just gone and whispered, "Sister Shuyi, do you really believe him?"

Ye Shuyi looked puzzled: "You heard it? Why don't you believe it?"

Xiao Pingliang looks honest and he shouldn't lie to her.

Besides, it’s just a matter of asking for leave and going to a new store to work. There’s nothing to be cheated about.

"I think the situation is complicated. He just said he is poor. He has a sick grandfather, a younger sister who is in school, and parents who are running a loss-making store! Don't you feel embarrassed?" Li Kaile asked.

"That's right, so what?"

"Didn't you see what he was wearing today? Was it a brand name?" Li Kaile said.

"Ah?" Ye Shuyi was really embarrassed because she didn't recognize the famous brand.

Even if someone were walking around in front of her wearing clothes worth one million, she wouldn't know that they were showing off their wealth. She would just think that the other person's clothes looked really good today, or that they might be walking around in front of her because they had something to do but were too embarrassed to tell her.

"Limited edition! Don't you know?" Li Kaile was surprised.

"...I don't know." Ye Shuyi admitted.

"Okay." Although Li Kaile didn't have much money, he liked to pay attention to luxury goods.

What if one day I have the money to buy it?

It doesn’t seem surprising that ordinary people don’t know about luxury goods.

"Sister Shuyi, you have to be alert. This kid doesn't talk much, but he seems to be very cunning! He might be trying to win your sympathy and cheat you of your money!" Li Kaile reminded her.

Ye Shuyi thought it wasn't that serious, right? Although Xiao Pingliang didn't like to talk, he was probably just shy and introverted. How could you say he was cunning?

But if he really was wearing a brand name and came to tell me that his family was in financial difficulty...

There really might be a pit, a big pit.

"Sister Shuyi, I think you're just too kind. Didn't you give money to that woman with the child last time? And now you're arranging a job for her and taking her to the hospital. That kid Xiao Pingliang thinks you're very compassionate and knows that by saying this, he can get you to give him money!"

Ye Shuyi admitted that she had actually had this thought if the employees really had difficulties.

"Then wait a bit. If he asks me for money, I'll ask him about the clothes." Ye Shuyi was cautious. "Didn't you come here with him? Don't you know him?"

"When we came, there were originally three of us. He was the last one I met, and we've only known him for less than three days. Since we were all looking for jobs, we split up and whoever found a job that took one person would go by themselves. If we found a job that took four people, we would notify everyone. That's all, we don't have much of a relationship. His expression was always indifferent, as if he had something on his mind, and we couldn't get along well. Although he did the same job as us, he wore branded goods every day." Li Kaile complained.

"Okay, I get it! Don't say these things in front of others in the future, so as not to cause trouble."

"I know what I'm doing."

That's how it happened.

When Butler Xue came to get breakfast this morning, he mentioned, "Miss Ye, you can prepare some hangover soup this afternoon."

Ye Shuyi then asked, "Chen Nanfeng wants to drink?"

She now just calls him by his full name instead of "Young Master".

"Well, there's a party tonight and I need to attend, so I might have to drink." Butler Xue didn't say anything specific, just gave it a vague tone.

"Oh, I see."

Just after sending Butler Xue away, the phone rang again.

Ye Shuyi felt that there were too many things going on and was a little irritable.

But she couldn't bring her emotions to work, so she took a deep breath and answered the phone: "Hello, this is Ye Ji Cuisine. Do you need a meal order?"

"Don't order food, order people." said the other end.

Ye Shuyi: “???”

Sounds familiar. It seems to be that person.

"Who are you?"

Is this a prank?

"I'm so frustrated. You can't even recognize my own voice?" He said with a somewhat resentful tone.

"Oh. Chen Nanfeng, what's up?"

I heard it this time.

"Well. Ten thousand Hong Kong dollars. Go to a party with me tonight. I'll pick you up after lunch." said the rich man.

Ye Shuyi agreed after hearing the price of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Just let Pan Chibin come over to help tonight.

As for grilled oysters, Li Kaile has already learned how to make them and is ready to become a master.

"See you later." Chen Nanfeng said with satisfaction.

The phone was hung up.

Ye Shuyi wondered why she was invited to the party?

Is it necessary to be accompanied by a girl to join the club?

Is this how he usually does when he attends meetings?

Shouldn't there be a stable partner?

For example, I saw that one in Fengcheng a long time ago.

For example, there is Gu Zi, the childhood sweetheart mentioned by Li Yunru before.

Who cares.

Just take the money.

At 2:30 in the afternoon, Chen Nanfeng's car stopped in front of Ye's door on time.

Ye Shuyi thought it was a party, so she wore a black waist-length skirt and put on light makeup.

When Chen Nanfeng saw it, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.

The girl in front of me has a slim figure, and the black color makes her skin look whiter than snow. She has a beautiful face, and she is dignified with a hint of charm.

"Good afternoon." Ye Shuyi greeted with a smile.

The sun is shining brightly, so bright that one cannot open their eyes.

Chen Nanfeng quickly turned around and said as he walked, "It's sunny, get in the car."

"oh."

baffling.

Chen Nanfeng drove the car himself and said as he drove: "I admit that you look very good today, but you can't attend the party like this."

"Why?" This was carefully matched by Ye Shuyi, okay?

From the dress, makeup, hairstyle, to accessories, everything has been thought through.

So I can't attend the party dressed like this?

She has good taste, right?

Too shabby, embarrassing for others?

"That party was attended by celebrities," said Chen Nanfeng.

"So? My status is not suitable for participation? Then why did you invite me?" Ye Shuyi was a little angry.

"That's not what I meant. Your identity doesn't matter. If you stand next to me, everyone will look up to you." Chen Nanfeng glanced at her through the rearview mirror.

Ye Shuyi's expression was not very happy.

She didn't like the idea very much, but she had to admit that it was the case at the moment.

One day, she will be respected not because she stands by Chen Nanfeng, but because she is Ye Shuyi, and has nothing to do with anyone else.

"So, I'll take you to buy some expensive brand-name clothes. That way, you can transform from a beautiful little daisy into a passionate red rose."

Ye Shuyi rolled her eyes.

She understood what he meant. It wasn't that her clothes were ugly or that her status was not high enough, but that her clothes were just ordinary and affordable.

It looks good.

But it is definitely different from those big-name brands.

There is no sense of luxury or wealth.

"Oh." Ye Shuyi responded.

Unexpectedly, at the banquet, she met an acquaintance she saw every day.
