Xin Sui's gaze towards Lou Jiali immediately changed.
Could it be that Lou Jiali's challenge to a fight wasn't about seeking humiliation, but rather an attempt to gauge her strength and find a way to capture her?
The old puppet used Gu twice... once during the chef's job application, and the other time was undoubtedly the time in the bar.
Lou Jiali had long wanted to use a curse to control her!
She had felt sorry for Lou Jiali earlier when she heard her say that she had lost her mother at a young age, but now she just wanted to slap her across the face.
Xin Sui acts on his thoughts.
"Smack!"
Lou Jiali had just woken up, her eyes were still blurry, and she couldn't remember anything that had happened during the hypnosis.
A slap came right across the face, stunning her.
"Li Xueli, how dare you slap me in the face!"
She suddenly became furious.
She gets pleasure from being hit.
While there may be a sense of satisfaction in being slapped in the face, the greater feeling is one of humiliation!
Lou Jiali sprang up and rushed forward to tear at Xin Sui.
Xin Sui was holding back her anger, so she didn't hold back and hit her back hard.
Bang!
Xin Sui punched Lou Jiali, mentally adding a voiceover—
Did they use a curse on me to control me?
Prepare for my brutal attack!
At 6 p.m. sharp, Xin Sui left work without lingering a minute longer.
As the head chef and a shareholder of the restaurant, if she wanted to leave, no one would dare to subtly criticize her or make her stay and work overtime.
"Hachijo, aren't you leaving?"
"I'd like to stay and practice carving a bit more before I leave."
"Alright then, don't stay out too late, go home early."
"Okay, please be careful on your way."
As Xin Sui walked out of the restaurant, about to release her car and drive back to the tower, a motorcycle suddenly swerved and blocked her way.
The motorcycle has a futuristic design and is a deep, luxurious blue-gold color, which immediately caught Xin Sui's eye.
I'm thinking about buying one sometime to ride around and have some fun.
Following the long legs straddling the bike upwards, when the rider took off his helmet and looked over, Xin Sui was immediately speechless: "..."
It turns out to be Old Fish Head.
She got all excited for no reason, thinking she'd run into some handsome guy passing by.
Old Fish Head thought he looked cool as he flicked his hair, which didn't even exist, and patted the back seat of the car.
"Get in the car."
Xin Sui: What?
"The shop has been renovated according to your design drawings. I came here specifically to pick you up and take a look."
"If there's anything wrong, please point it out so I can tell them to fix it."
He wants to open for business and make money as soon as possible after the changes are done!
"Alright."
Xin Sui sent Jenny a message saying he would be back late, and then got on the back of the motorcycle.
Before she could even settle in, the car sped off.
She was almost thrown off her feet.
Xin Sui quickly grabbed the rear bumper of the car.
I wanted to punch him, but I couldn't free my hand.
She must be stupid. Wouldn't it be so much more convenient to just use mental power?
She's been here for quite some time now, but she still hasn't fully transitioned into a normal person's mindset.
When faced with ferocious beasts, they can show their superhuman abilities under the threat of death.
But after returning to the city and living a normal life, she unconsciously began to see herself as an ordinary person again.
This is both good and bad.
The good thing is that she was originally an ordinary person and wouldn't become extraordinary just because she possessed some extraordinary powers.
Always treating herself as an ordinary person helps her maintain a humble and stable mindset.
To prevent one day from getting carried away and doing something dangerous in a moment of impulsiveness.
Being arrogant is not a good thing.
However, the downside is that she often forgets the extraordinary power she possesses because of this.
The balance between these two factors needs to be carefully managed.
Xin Sui thought for a moment, then released his spiritual power to condense it into a hammer and tapped the old fish head on the head.
Slow down!
Old Fish Head: "..."
Women are such a hassle!
He's already driving slowly enough to take care of her, why does he have to go even slower?
That was an insult to Thor—his beloved steed!
However, under the threat of the mental hammer, he still slowed down.
Once inside the shop, Xin Sui walked around inside and out.
"Hmm, not bad, the blueprints have been reproduced perfectly."
The decoration is very nice, simple and understated, and blends well with the surrounding environment without being ostentatious.
Old Fish Head rubbed his hands together expectantly and asked, "Then can we open for business?"
"During the time the shop was being renovated, Big Eyes and Second Beard didn't sit idle either; they were practicing making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
"I think their Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup, although not as delicious as yours, is still pretty good. It's very fragrant and will definitely attract a lot of customers to buy it."
Xin Sui: "Really? Is it ready? Bring it out for me to try."
The man with the big eyes, or crab head, said loudly, "Yes!"
He quickly went into the kitchen and brought out a large bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
"Please try it." He placed the bowl in front of Xin Sui.
Old Fish Head glanced at him sideways, "What about mine?"
Big Eyes chuckled, "Boss, you've eaten here so many times already, one more time won't make a difference."
"Besides, haven't you already eaten dinner? If you eat any more, you might get indigestion and won't be able to sleep tonight."
Under the expectant gaze of Da Yan, Xin Sui picked up the spoon, took a bite, and then another.
The taste was surprisingly good.
That day, Da Yan only watched her make it once, but she didn't expect that she could reproduce the taste by about 70-80%.
This kid has a real talent for cooking!
