Anti-theft chapter ~ Thank you for subscribing to the official version of Jinjiang Literary City ~ She looked away carelessly and smiled at the young boy who had just entered. "Welcome."
The little boy blushed and said, "Sister, hello."
"Ding Dong——" Another favorability point was obtained, and Jiang Xi smiled more sincerely.
Lu Yuan stood face to face with his new colleague, feeling like he was about to die drunkenly from his new colleague's smile. Unexpectedly, he was hit on the head by Manager Cheng: "Gouzi, wipe your saliva!"
"Uncle! Give me some face."
Lu Yuan glanced at Cheng Cheng with resentment.
Jiang Xi didn't know that they had such a relationship, so he greeted her politely, "Hello, store manager."
Cheng Cheng was very satisfied. "Xiaoxi, don't just stand there at the door. There's an important guest in the private room. Go and greet him. Be smart, okay?"
Jiang Xi was not very willing.
But the world is big, and the boss is the biggest.
She responded crisply: "No problem."
Cheng Cheng hummed a half-melodies as he headed to the kitchen. Lu Yuan rubbed the back of his head, "The manager must have gone to the kitchen himself."
Jiang Xi rubbed his cheeks and walked towards the private room in silence.
It is called a private room, but in fact it is just two rooms separated by the glass wall of the cafe along the street. The middle is cleverly decorated with potted plants to create the illusion of "secluded and private".
When Jiang Xi walked over, Lili and two other female shop assistants were standing together with excited faces, talking about something.
"Lili?"
"Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi," Lili soon became familiar with Jiangxi and waved her hand, "Come here, come here."
Jiang Xi blinked and asked with a smile, "What good news makes you so happy?"
"A gorgeous guy just came into the store." Lili drew a large circle on her chest. "Do you know what a gorgeous guy is? I've never seen anyone so handsome in my life. Those legs, that waist, those hands... absolutely amazing."
She had a look of hunger on her face that said, "I'd be willing to jump into the Poyang River just to be touched."
The Poyang River is a small river near Shen City. During the early years of war, when Shen City was struggling to make ends meet, people loved jumping into the Poyang River to keep up with the trend. Many legends about water ghosts still circulate today.
"real?"
Jiang Xi opened his eyes wide, "Even more handsome than Yang Maozhi?"
Yang Maozhi is a popular young actor in the entertainment industry. He made his debut in an idol drama and is famous for his handsomeness.
"How about the top-notch Yang Maozhi?" The female clerk on Lili's left, who turned out to be a Yang Maozhi fan, nodded frantically. "Just now, just now—he glanced at me when he passed by, and I felt like I fell in love. I think... I fell in love with him."
Aria, histrionic personality.
Jiang Xi was calm and commented silently.
"You're just concerned with your looks? That's superficial." Another clerk, Tongtong, had her eyes sparkling. Despite her seemingly simple lifestyle, she was avidly researching luxury goods and determined to marry a wealthy man. "That customer's wrist is wearing a limited edition Patek Philippe, a brand that launched this year. It's worth 30 million. Without connections, you can't buy it."
She counted.
Lili and Ah Xi snorted in unison. It was a rare moment of agreement. "30 million to drink coffee in this shabby little coffee shop in this shabby place? Is it to find gold, or to negotiate business?"
In their eyes, rich people should fly on private jets, drink red wine, and watch private movies, rather than appearing in such down-to-earth places.
"So, are you all gathered here to catch some riches or to pick up some gold?"
Manager Cheng suddenly appeared like a ghost from behind, holding a stack of fried crispy snails in his hand. The aroma captured Jiang Xi almost instantly.
Jiang Xi never knew she had a talent for food. She was just daydreaming when Cheng Cheng shoved the plate at her and waved, "Xixi, go ahead."
Are we going to see 30 million?
Even though Jiang Xi's heart was as calm as water, she couldn't help but want to find out. Lili and the others behind her lamented, "Manager, you can't just give someone a backdoor just because they're good-looking..."
Cheng Cheng was annoyed: "I'm afraid of losing face if I open the back door for you."
Jiang Xi curled the corners of her mouth. Although her colleagues were lively and eccentric, they were easy to get along with and not difficult to deal with.
Lili clenched her fist at her and said, "Come on, Xiaoxi!"
Jiang Xi was speechless. She walked around a row of seats reserved for couples. Behind them was the private room. The first person she saw was a man with neatly groomed hair, even the hair strands exuding sexiness. He was wearing a sky blue shirt, dark jeans, and a pair of Adidas Yeezys. He was half leaning against the back of the sofa, looking down at his phone.
"The fried conch you requested."
Jiang Xi paid special attention to the watch. It had a light gold mechanical dial. This high imitation looked... quite reliable.
Thirty million raised their heads.
The "30 million, Poyang River" that had been constantly lingering in Jiang Xi's mind was like snowflakes, and was instantly dried up by this glance, leaving the earth empty.
The man had distinct eyebrows and a high nose bridge. The large amount of sunlight pouring in from the floor-to-ceiling windows gave him a silhouette. He was sitting there in such a messy manner, as if he was sitting in the grand lobby of a hotel, drinking foreign wine, eating Western food, and flirting with...beauties.
Jiang Xi instinctively felt uncomfortable.
This is a fascinating man – no doubt about it.
Although younger than expected.
Han Chen quietly picked up his knife and fork and took a piece of fried conch. "Where's the big orange?"
Jiang Xi noticed the look of enjoyment on the man's face as he took in the fried conch. The wrinkles in his peach blossom eyes seemed particularly deep and charming at that moment. She guessed that the big orange he was talking about was the store manager who kept saying "get out of here!"
Inexplicably cute.
"The manager has returned to the kitchen."
