Ma Ming sat with his parents, eating fruit and chatting casually.

Then he noticed that there seemed to be fewer people here today than yesterday.

Um?

That's very unscientific.

"Mom and Dad, do you think there were fewer people here today than yesterday?"

"Of course, everyone went to work today."

Ma Ming then realized that today was the 7th, and the National Day holiday was over.

No wonder.

......

Xiaolin, who hadn't finished get off work yet at this hour, was incredibly anxious.

"I'm working overtime on my first day back from the holiday. By the time I'm done, will I even get to eat wontons? Are you kidding me!"

As a fellow diner, doesn't she know perfectly well what kind of people Boss Lin's customers are?

They set up their stall at 12 o'clock, and there were long queues when they arrived at 7 o'clock.

By the time she finishes get off work, it will be at least past 10 pm. If she rushes over then, she won't even be able to squeeze into the queue, let alone get some wontons.

I know for sure that I won't be able to have any wontons today.

Sigh~

Everyone in the company, and not just her, was listless.

Many people have just returned from vacation; they're physically back at work, but their minds haven't quite settled back in.

The quality of my work was not high throughout the day.

In addition, with the holiday over, the workload is heavy, and everyone is working overtime.

When the message notification sounded, Xiaolin opened her phone and saw that it was a message from her best friend Jia Lan.

"Are you off work yet?"

Xiaolin: "Are you kidding me? How could that be?"

Jia Lan: "I don't have any either, so what should we do?"

Xiaolin: "Make it cold."

Jia Lan: "Are you stupid? I can't go because I'm working overtime, but your boss knows Boss Lin. If you tell him you want to eat Boss Lin's wontons, would he really refuse?"

Xiaolin: "!!!"

That makes so much sense! How come she didn't think of that?

I've been forgetting about the boss all this time!

"Sister, I can't thank you enough. If you can't finish it, I'll eat more for you!"

After Xiaolin finished speaking, she happily went to the president's office to find the boss.

Jia Lan was left standing there, petrified, staring at the dialog box.

These are clearly best friends; someone you don't know well wouldn't say something like that.

As soon as Xiaolin entered the office, her eyes lit up when she saw her boss.

Even a hardworking boss can't figure it out.

"What...what do you want with me?"

"Boss, do you remember the steamed buns we had before? The ones in the park that were so delicious. The owner who sold those steamed buns is now selling wontons. They're so good! Shall we go try them?"

boss:!!!

Where?

The boss immediately started saving the files and prepared to leave.

"In Taoshan."

"I remember you can drive, you drive."

Xiaolin was overjoyed to see that the boss seemed ready to leave.

Hehe, now we can finally eat!

Xiaolin happily drove her boss to Taoshan.

They even hired a courier to queue up for them, intending to bring a portion over for Jia Lan as well.

After tasting the wontons, the owner didn't even need Xiaolin to urge him the next day. Seeing that it was almost time, he called Xiaolin to go to Taoshan to eat wontons together.

The two went out together for two consecutive days while everyone else at the company was working overtime.

This inevitably sparked the imaginations of the company's employees.

After seeing the two figures leave one after the other, the small group chat exploded.

"Are the boss and Xiaolin together?"

"It can't be that bad. The boss is almost 40, and Xiaolin is only in her twenties. There's quite a big difference between them."

"So what if he's older? He's never married, and he's devoted all his energy to his work these past few years. His private life is very clean, and being older means he'll be more considerate!"

"I think you're overthinking it. Who would want to work with a boss who pushes them to work overtime every day? That would be crazy. And the boss is a workaholic. I can't imagine how terrifying it would be to be with someone like that."

"Don't you guys think it's a great ship?"

"No, I think it's ridiculous. I curse the boss a hundred times every day at work, and you guys are still thinking about being with the boss."

"What you said makes a lot of sense."

"If I really want to know, I'll just ask Xiaolin when she gets back."

......

Around 3 a.m., Lin Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief after finishing his week's stall business.

He's not very brave.

Setting up a stall in a cemetery is a bit nerve-wracking.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have created a fake account to secretly lure diners to their restaurants online.

Of course, there's also the task requirement involved; we need to sell one hundred bowls of wontons every day.

After submitting the task, Lin Zhou returned home, and the reward was credited to his account.

An ordinary hundred million.

There was absolutely no surprise in it.

His attention was focused on the newly updated weekly tasks.

[This week's task: Go to the entrance of Xingfu Nursing Home at 8:00 AM to sell fried skewers. You only need to set up your stall for 20 hours.]

[Recipe: Techniques for Frying Skewers]

[Accept/Decline]

Lin Zhou opened the mission details and read them carefully.

This week's task is a time-based mission, which is the first time I've encountered one.

You only need to set up a stall for 20 hours a week, which averages out to less than three hours a day, so there's absolutely no pressure.

He could even adjust his schedule today, get a good night's sleep, and not set up his stall.

Lin Zhou also checked the system map and confirmed that the Happiness Nursing Home was located in the city and not far away. Only after confirming that there were no hidden problems did he feel relieved.

Having been tricked by the system into ending up in a cemetery last week, he now carefully reads the descriptions before accepting any new mission.

Only collect it after confirming there are no problems.
