In the blink of an eye, Shen Yurong has been working at Ning Wan's takeout restaurant for almost half a month.
During this period, he not only learned how to be a qualified waiter, but even began to move towards the goal of becoming an excellent waiter.
No longer indulging in playing cards and watching family dramas every day, Shen Yurong seems to have gradually come to like his job.
In this small boxed lunch shop, he encountered all sorts of different people.
Those ordinary people he used to look down on actually had their own unique insights into life.
They live in their own little circle.
Even without access to the bustling and chaotic world outside, one can still enjoy life in the present moment with contentment.
They knew neither Shen Yurong nor who this useless playboy, whom everyone in the business circle looked down upon, was.
According to them, Xiao Shen, the new waiter at [Shi Lai Shi Wang], is a talkative, chatty, and insightful scholar.
Shen Yurong always felt embarrassed when praised like this by his guests.
The way they praised someone was especially sincere.
There was absolutely none of the flattery and fawning that you see in the business world.
I feel very comfortable and at ease being with them.
Shen Yurong seemed to be beginning to understand why Shen Fu liked life here.
Even after regaining her memories and returning to Shenhao Group, she would rather stay here and continue selling boxed lunches.
To be honest, if he could, he would like to stay here forever, as that ordinary waiter, Xiao Shen...
...
Ning Wan came out of the kitchen.
Seeing Shen Yurong sitting quietly and lost in thought at the shop entrance, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you doing?"
Shen Yurong replied, "Meditation..."
Ning Wan: "..."
"The cabbage in the kitchen hasn't been chopped yet, and the dishes from lunch haven't been washed. Did you check and verify the pork that Boss Zhu delivered this morning?"
The implication is—there's still so much work to do, how dare you sit here?
"You're paid 1600 a month, but you expect me to do 6100 a month's worth of work!" Shen Yurong wailed in anguish. "You two are nothing short of fascists!"
Ning Wan ignored the complaints in his words.
She placed the shopping basket on the table and asked curiously, "Why aren't you playing cards today?"
When this was mentioned, Shen Yurong looked particularly dejected: "Your husband is too abnormal. He won 80 billion Happy Beans. How am I supposed to play?"
The fun of Dou Dizhu lies in the tug-of-war between winning and losing.
Because there are winners and losers, the game becomes tense and exciting.
However, ever since 80 billion Happy Beans appeared in his account, Shen Yurong has lost all interest and enjoyment in playing Dou Dizhu.
He looked up and sighed, "It's endless, it's impossible to finish losing!!!"
Ning Wan knew that Shen Fu was doing it on purpose.
Fearing that Shen Yurong wouldn't focus on his work if he stayed at the store, Shen Fu not only won him plenty of Happy Beans, but also spoiled the entire ending of the family drama Shen Yurong was currently watching.
They completely disregarded his life or death.
Playing cards with Shen Yurong is boring, and watching TV shows doesn't interest me either.
All I can do is work honestly every day.
Ning Wan thought about it carefully and felt that Shen Yurong was really pitiful.
A group president, instead of going to his regular job, was tricked into becoming a waiter by a few words from Shen Fu.
Ning Wan felt a little guilty.
“Actually, you don’t need to take everything Aman says to heart,” Ning Wan said. “It’s okay to take a break and go home to rest occasionally.”
Ning Wan is not stingy; she provides her employees with the benefits and holidays they deserve in a reasonable way.
If Shen Yurong hadn't already had five social insurances and one housing fund at Shenhao Group, she might have even been able to pay social security for him.
Shen Fu is already despicable enough; she can't become a real fascist or Nazi.
Only when one person plays the good cop and the other the bad cop, performing a duet, can a play be performed completely...
...
"Go home?" Shen Yurong suddenly thought of the people in the Shen residence: "But... it seems like I don't have a home anymore."
Shen Jiahao is selfish and only cares about himself.
The only person Li Hongxia truly cared about was Shen Xu.
Not to mention Gao Muyun and her two children.
To them, Shen Yurong is now like an outsider who can't fit in.
He truly understood for the first time how Shen Fu felt after staying in the Shen family for so many years.
“That’s not how it works,” Ning Wan said while picking vegetables. “A family is never defined by the number of people. Some families are large and prosperous, but everyone has their own agenda. Some families are small and poor, but their inner world is rich and fulfilling.”
"Moreover, 'home' is a continuous and ever-changing noun. When you are alone, you can have a home by yourself. When you have someone you love, it is a sweet home for two. And when you have your own children, you form a happy family of three."
"The concept of 'home' never refers to the present or the future; it also includes the future. After all, different people at different stages of life have different views on the definition of happiness."
Shen Yurong stared blankly at Ning Wan, his eyes filled with confusion: "Don't you hate me at all? I did so many things to frame Shen Fu..."
Ning Wan pouted: "Of course I hate it."
To be honest, she hated everyone in the Shen family.
Ning Wan's directness made Shen Yurong's heart clench; he squatted on the ground and almost shrank into a corner to draw circles.
Ning Wan smiled and said, "But hating this feeling is pointless. It only affects my thoughts and makes me unhappy. I don't want my life to be controlled by my emotions. Because only I am the one who can control my life."
Ning Wan's words greatly shocked Shen Yurong.
He was about to thank Ning Wan for her comfort.
But the next second I heard her say, "And rather than a useless emotion like 'hate,' I prefer to directly eliminate the factors that make me feel 'hate.'"
Goosebumps instantly covered my skin.
Shen Yurong stood up from the corner and shook himself: "You two, husband and wife, are equally vengeful!"
"Thank you, I'll take that as a compliment." Ning Wan handed him the picked vegetable leaves, her expression nonchalant: "Take them to the kitchen to wash and drain."
Shen Yurong: "..."
They're shameless and push their luck in the same way...
