Before today, Xu Yuening once thought that her older brother had seen through the vanities of the world and was prepared to live the rest of his life as a frog—alone and lonely.
During his three years of university, so many people confessed their feelings to him and pursued him, but he didn't like any of them.
Xu Xing'an saw that Xu Yuening was actually in a daze, so he couldn't help but pinch her cheek.
"Xu, Yue, Ning! Can you hear me?"
Xu Xing'an had just rattled off a whole bunch of things and was waiting for her reply.
As it turned out, Xu Yuening clearly wasn't listening.
Xu Yuening was suddenly called by her full name and reflexively replied, "Yes! I heard you!"
"Then repeat what I just said."
Xu Xing'an crossed his arms and looked at her with a helpless expression.
Hehe~
Xu Yuening touched her nose a little embarrassedly and smiled sheepishly: "Um, could you say it again, big brother?"
"I didn't hear you very clearly, but I'll definitely listen carefully this time."
The main thing was that his very first words shocked Xu Yuening.
So much so that she didn't pay attention to what he said next.
Xu Xing'an: He knew it...
But since he needed someone's help, Xu Xing'an could only patiently repeat it again.
"I said, I need your help to go to the freshman girls' dormitory and find a girl named Tang Wanting."
"Once you find her, tell her that your steamed bun shop needs to hire a part-time worker and ask her if she wants to go."
"The part-time job is on weekends, and the pay is paid daily, at five yuan a day."
Xu Yuening: ? ? ?
"How much?! How much do you mean per day?!"
"Five yuan a day?! Brother, do you know that the workers in my shop only earn fifty or sixty yuan a month?"
"I own a shop, not a charity. How could I possibly pay such a high salary!"
Xu Yuening really wanted to pry open his skull to see if he had water in his brain.
Xu Xing'an covered his ears, which were ringing from the shock, and hurriedly said, "I'll pay this salary! I'll pay it!"
"Oh, brother, you should have said so earlier!"
Upon hearing that she wouldn't have to pay her own salary, Xu Yuening instantly calmed down.
There was nothing she could do; she wanted to buy a shop in the new mall and open a dessert shop.
However, the location of that mall is so good that the prices are a little bit expensive.
Therefore, Xu Yuening has been extremely frugal during this period.
Once the pressure was gone, Xu Yuening had the time and inclination to gossip.
"Big brother~ Is this Tang Wanting my future sister-in-law?"
Xu Xing'an said somewhat awkwardly, "Probably, but I haven't expressed my feelings yet, so I don't know if she likes me."
Seeing Xu Xing'an so shy was a rare sight for Xu Yuening, and she knew he was truly smitten.
"Big brother, you need to have confidence in yourself!"
"You have to be good, have a good figure, be rich and good-looking. You have a good temper, are easy to get along with, and are both literate and martial."
"He has the height, the looks, the intelligence, and the talent."
"With your qualifications, as long as you sincerely pursue her, I think the chances of success are quite high."
Xu Xing'an was so flattered by Xu Yuening's praise that he became a little smug.
He scratched the back of his head and said somewhat shyly, "Hehe~ It's alright, I'm not that talented."
Seeing that he hadn't noticed the flaw in his words at all, Xu Yuening couldn't help but shake her head.
She should go see Tang Wanting first.
Let's first learn about Tang Wanting's character and personality.
Seeing her brother suddenly become somewhat naive and innocent, Xu Yuening was worried that he might be being manipulated.
......
Tang Wanting looked at Xu Yuening with some trepidation, wondering why she had come to see her.
Hello, may I ask who you are?
Xu Yuening never expected that Xu Xing'an would like such a shy and timid girl.
I don't know if Tang Wanting's accent was naturally sweet or if she was just nervous.
Even a girl like Xu Yuening felt a tingling sensation all over her body when she heard her voice.
"Hello, I am Xu Xing'an's younger sister, my name is Xu Yuening."
"You can call me Yueyue. How about we go to the cafeteria and chat while we eat?"
"Oh, okay..."
Hearing Xu Yuening say that she was Xu Xing'an's sister, Tang Wanting became even more uneasy.
She and Xu Xing'an had only known each other for half a semester. Could it be that he found out about her crush on him?
Was Xu Xing'an too embarrassed to refuse her directly, so he sent Xu Yuening over to warn her?
Xu Yuening noticed that Tang Wanting seemed very nervous, so she wanted to chat with her to help her relax.
"Wan Ting, how old are you this year?"
"Huh? Me? I'm 21 years old this year."
"21 years old? That means you're a year older than me! I'll call you Sister Wanting then!"
"Wanting, what do you want to eat at the cafeteria later? I heard they have sweet and sour pork ribs today."
"Let me tell you..."
After chatting with Xu Yuening the whole way, Tang Wanting finally felt less nervous.
Because she found that Xu Yuening's attitude was very friendly, and she didn't seem to be planning to make things difficult for her.
Tang Wanting declined Xu Yuening's invitation to dinner, only ordering a bowl of white rice and the cheapest vegetables, plus a bowl of free soup from the cafeteria.
Xu Yuening glanced at her plate, then at her own.
