Chapter 137 If you can’t even conquer your own family, how can you conquer the world?



After following Xiang Long through the steps, Xiang Xin skipped to the front desk and said to the stunned Shen Cheng with a smile, "Master, I'm here to practice martial arts with you!"

"Uh..." Shen Cheng came back to his senses and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have promised Xiang Long to teach Xiang Xin martial arts every weekend.

"Boss." Xiang Long scratched his shiny bald head and said a little embarrassedly, "You just got back. I'm really sorry to bother you."

Shen Cheng smiled and waved his hands, saying: "It's okay, after all, I promised Xiao Xin."

"Then Master, can we start?" Hearing this, Xiang Xin's eyes immediately lit up, and she said to Chen Cheng excitedly.

"Hmm..." Shen Cheng pondered for a moment, looking at the coffee he was grinding in his hand and the long list of unfinished orders, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

I can't get away at all!

"Xiao Xin, the boss is busy. Please go sit down and wait. I'll order you a cup of coffee." Seeing that Shen Cheng was busy with his work, Xiang Long nodded and said to Xiang Xin.

Xiang Xin's face immediately fell, but she still listened to Xiang Long and walked obediently to the corner of the cat cafe, sitting down and fiddling with her phone idly.

After Xiang Xin left, Xiang Long sat down at the counter and ordered two cups of mixed coffee. Then, with a slightly frowned face, he asked Chen Cheng, "Boss, you seem to have changed a lot in the past week."

As he spoke, Xiang Long noticed Xiao Qi, who was lying motionless like a rag doll in Shen Cheng's arms. He blinked but didn't ask anything.

"Haha, is that so?" Shen Cheng just smiled, glanced at Xiang Xin in the corner, and suddenly asked Xiang Long: "Da Long, do you really support Xiao Xin practicing martial arts with me?"

While speaking, Shen Cheng's action of grinding coffee was not affected at all, and the afterimages flying all over the sky were dazzling.

Xiang Long shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether she practices martial arts or not, as long as Xiao Xin can follow you, the boss."

Ever since he saw the changes in Xiang Xin after she came into contact with Shen Cheng that night, Xiang Long has been full of admiration for Shen Cheng. In Xiang Long's eyes, as long as Xiang Xin can continue to come into contact with Shen Cheng, she will definitely get rid of her current status as a bad girl.

Looking at Lingxue who had appeared in the store again, Xiang Long thought for a moment and said to Chen Cheng, "Boss, can you... let Xiaoxin work in your store? Don't worry, you don't need to pay her a salary."

Shen Cheng: “…”

How does this make it seem like I care a lot about that little bit of salary?

Looking at Xiang Xin whose eyes were gradually attracted by the cat on the ground, Chen Cheng felt that it would be good to temper this girl's temper, so he nodded and said, "If Xiao Xin is willing, let her try it."

"Okay, then I'll go talk to Xiaoxin." After saying that, Xiang Long stood up and walked to Xiang Xin's side and sat down, and began to talk to Xiang Xin.

After Xiang Long left, Lin Yuhui came up and asked Chen Cheng, "Senior, who is that girl? She looks about the same age as Xiaodie..."

"She does go to the same school as Xiaodie. Her name is Xiang Xin, and she's Dalong's daughter." Chen Cheng replied.

Lin Yuhui: “…”

Turning her head, Lin Yuhui looked back and forth between Xiang Long and Xiang Xin several times, and blinked blankly.

Xiang Long’s...daughter?

Biological child?

Looking at his daughter holding a cat in her arms, Xiang Long said, "Xiao Xin, do you want to work for the boss?"

"Working under Master?" Xiang Xin was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up. "Are you going to help Master fight other gangs in Mio City for territory?"

"..." Xiang Long was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but hold his forehead with one hand, his face full of lamentation.

Who is this girl following...

"I mean, let you work in this cat cafe." After a long sigh, Xiang Long said to Xiang Xin.

"Ah~" Xiang Xin's face fell again: "Isn't this just serving dishes?"

"Xiao Xin, don't think like that!" Xiang Long's face turned serious, and he said to Xiang Xin: "You have to know that if you can't conquer your own family, how can you conquer the world! If you want to achieve great things, you have to start with something small. Back then, your father was... cough, I'm getting off topic!"

Xiao Xin's mouth corners twitched slightly.

That's sweeping, right? Not hitting! Even I, who barely studied, know this!

Thinking that Chen Cheng was busy anyway and there was nothing for her to do sitting in the cat cafe, Xiang Xin, who couldn't sit still, nodded and agreed: "Then I'll give it a try."

After saying that, Xiang Xin stood up and was about to go find Chen Cheng, but was pushed back by Xiang Long by the shoulders.

Xiang Xin, who was pushed back, was slightly stunned and asked Xiang Long, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Drink your coffee first, then go. Don't waste it."

Xiang Xin: “…”

After Lin Yuhui brought the coffee, Xiang Xin drank it and took the initiative to find Chen Cheng to ask about working in the cat cafe. Chen Cheng naturally did not refuse. He gave Xiang Xin a few instructions and let her go to work.

Of course, Chen Cheng did not let Xiang Xin wear work clothes. After all, Xiang Xin was just a high school student, and she was Xiang Long's daughter. If Xiang Xin was asked to wear a maid outfit to work for him, it would feel... very weird!

While working at the cat cafe, Xiang Xin looked at Xiang Long, who was holding a cat like a cat lover, and felt that the image of her father in her heart seemed to have collapsed...

It was not until around six o'clock in the evening that Chen Cheng had some free time from grinding coffee. After entrusting the front desk work to Xi Ming, Chen Cheng led Xiang Xin to the outside of Guangdian Cat Cafe.

Because of the season, the sky outside was already shrouded in darkness, and the street lights were flickering with a dim light.

"There's not much time left, so I'll teach you the basic moves of my Shen family martial arts first. You should try to memorize them before my cat cafe closes. It's best to practice them every morning in the future. I'll test you next week, how about that?" Facing Xiang Xin, Chen Cheng said with a faint smile.

Xiang Xin nodded with shining eyes and said, "Okay, Master, I will try my best!"

"Okay, follow me first, the first move..."

"Ding-ling-ling..."

In the kitchen of the cat cafe, Wen Yuanyuan, who was making a cake, suddenly heard a ringing in her pocket.

Wen Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Liusu. Liusu understood, took the cake from Wen Yuanyuan, and said, "Go answer the phone."

"Well, thank you, Liusu!" Wen Yuanyuan smiled and nodded to Liusu. Then she patted the flour off her hands, took out a clearly very old phone from her pocket, and answered the call: "Hello."

"Hello, are you Miss Wen Yuanyuan?" A gentle and elegant male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wen Yuanyuan was slightly taken aback and replied, "It's me. What can I do for you?"

"Oh, it's like this. I'm the director of Mio City Central Hospital. My last name is Mu. May I ask if your mother is in a vegetative state and is currently in our hospital..."

Hearing this, Wen Yuanyuan's expression suddenly became panic. She quickly held the phone with both hands and said, "Regarding my mother's medical expenses, please... please give me a few more days! I can pay it back right away! Please..."
