"Leave it to me next. Thank you and Lingxue for your hard work today. You have to help me investigate things while working." Walking around to the back of the front desk, Chen Cheng said to Xi Ming.
The reason why Lingxue later contacted Shen Cheng alone was that Shen Cheng guessed that it was because Ximing's workload was too heavy and he really couldn't spare the time.
After all, the cat cafe has a lot of customers at noon. Ximing is just a fox fantasy who has not undergone any special training. He does not have the hand speed of Shen Cheng that can create afterimages. In addition, he has to help investigate the fights in many places in Mio City. He must be very busy.
Although Ximing always has a smiling expression on her face, she must be very tired in her heart.
"Ting ting~ The blended coffee filled with Ximing's love is ready. This is the last cup of coffee for today." Ximing handed the freshly prepared coffee to Chen Cheng and rubbed his wrist inconspicuously.
"I'm honored." Shen Cheng took the coffee with a smile, lowered his head, and saw a fox head drawn out of milk latte art on the coffee, with a small heart playfully decorated on the side.
"Ximing...you've been really hard-working during this period." Inexplicably, Chen Cheng felt a little guilty: "I clearly said I brought you here to relax, but in the end I gave you one of the most tiring tasks."
"What are you talking about? I like my current life very much, and so does Lingxue. Isn't that enough?"
Xi Ming smiled and said, "Besides, we are a family~"
"Uh...Xi Ming?" Shen Cheng was slightly stunned.
"What's wrong? Isn't that what you said? Xiao Lingxue told me everything. Is our Director Shen going to deny it?" Xi Ming pulled over a chair and sat down next to Shen Cheng, supporting his chin with his hand.
"Ah..." Chen Cheng was a little stunned: "Lingxue... told you everything?"
"Xiao Lingxue definitely wouldn't tell me on her own initiative. Luckily, Xiao Lingxue is very easy to trick. I easily got her to tell me about our date that day."
Xi Ming still had a smiling expression on her face: "I also know that you made Xiao Lingxue so exhausted, breathless, and unable to even walk on her own."
"Puff...cough cough cough!" Chen Cheng almost spit out the coffee he had just swallowed and coughed several times in succession.
Although this is the fact, why does it feel a little wrong when you say it?
Never mind, as long as you like it.
Seeing Chen Cheng frustrated, Xi Ming laughed triumphantly again.
Fatty Zhou approached cautiously and asked tentatively, "Can I... also order a cup of Miss Ximing's loving blended coffee?"
Before Ximing could speak, Chen Cheng tilted his head, squinted his eyes and smiled kindly, "Sorry, Miss Ximing has already taken her shift. Now here is a blend of coffee that is full of Manager Chen Cheng's love. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Zhou's expression suddenly changed. He hugged himself and retreated repeatedly while saying, "Manager Shen, I admit that you are very attractive, but heaven and earth can bear witness that I, Zhou Dongliang, am absolutely normal!"
Shen Cheng: “…”
It’s hard, my fist is hard!
…
As time passed, it was almost time for Chen Die and Xiang Xin to finish school, so Chen Cheng handed the work at hand to Xi Ming again, and set out to pick up Chen Die and Xiang Xin.
There weren't many customers ordering coffee during this period, so Ximing was relatively relaxed. Most of the time she just sat at the front desk and acted as a receptionist.
When we arrived at the gate of Mio City No. 2 High School, there weren't many parents picking up their children at this time of year. The uncle who liked to smoke was not there either, probably because he hadn't gotten off work yet.
Shen Cheng couldn't help but sigh, no wonder these people were under so much pressure since they still had to go to work on Saturday.
After waiting for a while, the school bell rang and the teaching building immediately became noisy.
In less than a minute, many students rushed out of the teaching building, swinging their schoolbags, shouting, jumping up and down, making the parents who were picking up their children at the school gate laugh.
Some parents silently covered their faces, probably because they saw their children among them.
Shen Cheng could understand this. After all, accumulated pressure needed to be released, and shouting loudly during this period of time was undoubtedly the simplest and most effective way to release it.
As the number of students increases, Shen Cheng can also see the miniatures of many families here.
A boy came to his mother, scratched his head and asked, "Mom, did I bring my cell phone?"
The boy's mother kept looking down at her phone, not even looking up. She said angrily, "All you do is play with your phone all day long. You know the college entrance exams are almost here, don't you? Go home and review your lessons. You're obsessed with your phone the whole time you're on vacation. You're wasting your time!"
"Oh..." The boy looked a little depressed, but he still said, "Then I'll study hard. But Mom, can you please stop looking at me? You've been watching short videos next to me, and it's giving me a headache..."
"Do you still find me annoying? I think you just don't want to study hard and are slacking off while I'm away!"
Shen Cheng: “…”
This should be more than just a microcosm of a family.
“Brother!”
“Brother Shen Cheng!”
After a while, Shen Die and Xiang Xin walked out of the school and stood side by side in front of Shen Cheng.
"You two have worked hard this week. Take a good rest this weekend and don't overwork yourself." Shen Cheng said with a faint smile.
Shen Die waved her hand and said, “No, the college entrance examination is coming soon, I can’t lose to you, brother!”
Xiang Xin also shook her head and said, "I'm still a long way behind in my progress, so I have to work harder."
In their opinion, weekends are the best time to study, because Ye Xi will come to help them with their homework on weekends. Ye Xi's ability is much better than that of the teachers in school.
Xiang Xin has a deep understanding of this. She learned the calculation method for a math problem from Ye Xi. After the math teacher saw her calculation process, he directly pulled the entire math group together to analyze the calculation process.
The next day, this calculation method was applied by the math teachers to other similar questions, and they praised it highly. Xiang Xin, who was at the bottom of the class a year ago, became the apple of the math teachers' eyes.
"Well, don't tire yourself out. Attitude is the most important thing." Chen Cheng shrugged and said, "Get in the car, let's go home."
After picking up the two girls, Shen Cheng drove away.
The parent who was scrolling through his phone felt his neck a little sore. When he looked up, he happened to notice what had just happened over there with Shen Cheng. He immediately turned around and scolded his child, "Look at other people's children!"
The boy shrank his neck, didn't talk back, and looked very inferior.
If nothing unexpected happens, this weak character will probably accompany this student throughout his life.
