Chapter 750: Being Targeted by Bad Guys?



"I just wanted to discuss with you the possibility of letting Zhizhi stay for a few days. She can go back home after her upstairs neighbor stops making noise."

Zhou Wen listened thoughtfully, thinking it was nothing, and decided to stay.

Anyway, if no one lives there, it'll just gather dust.

“It’s no big deal. You can make the decision yourself. Zhizhi seems like a very honest girl, and she gets along well with the staff in the store. I have high hopes for her.”

"Of course, don't let her seemingly silly demeanor fool you. When it really comes down to it, she's the type who won't let you down."

Zhou Ruan initially didn't want to talk to Zhizhi, but she was gradually moved by her.

This girl always manages to touch my heart from time to time.

Then she revealed all her innermost thoughts in a completely transparent way.

"I was just worried you might have some reservations. I always discuss things with you. Okay, it's decided then. I'll go downstairs and tell Zhizhi."

Then he went downstairs excitedly, his previous sullen expression completely gone.

Zhou Wen shook her head as she watched Zhou Ruan's retreating figure, truly unable to understand what this mischievous girl was thinking.

After Zhou Ruan came downstairs, the group saw that she had a smile on her face and thought that she must be in a much better mood now.

Just then, Zhizhi finished tidying up the table and came back to see Zhou Ruan. She was thinking of going to comfort her.

But upon closer inspection, her previous angry demeanor had completely vanished.

I figured the landlady would definitely appease him.

"Hey, Zhizhi has something to tell you, come here."

Zhou Ruan beckoned to Zhizhi, who was not far away, eager to tell her the good news.

Seeing that Zhou Ruan was in a good mood, Zhizhi immediately skipped and hopped over to him.

"Just pack up today, and you can move upstairs tomorrow. There's a spare room there."

"Wow, really? Then I don't have to wait until tomorrow, I can move in today. I can't stand that damn neighbor for even a day longer." Zhizhi was both surprised and delighted, thinking that she could finally get rid of the annoying construction noise.

"You're moving in today? Have you packed all your luggage? There's only a blanket and a bed in the room."

Zhou Ruan was puzzled for a moment and didn't react.

"Sister Ruan, you don't understand. I never fight a battle unprepared. I've already packed my things and brought them over this morning."

"I was just waiting for these next couple of days to be able to move in, I didn't expect it to be so fast. Hooray, hooray, this is fantastic!"

Seeing that Zhizhi had planned so well.

Zhou Ruan suddenly felt like a fool, not even thinking of this.

That's why I say Zhizhi isn't stupid at all.

They're just totally adorable and silly.

She is smarter than anyone else when it comes to crucial moments.

"You, you've been plotting this all along, haven't you? I bet you've got your eye on that empty room upstairs."

"Sister Ruan, you guessed it. Actually, I didn't think of it that way at first, but after your reminder, I realized it."

"And staying at the hotel is convenient; I no longer have to worry about being late."

Zhizhi's little head had already planned everything out.

However, one thing to remember is to lock the door when you go out; otherwise, it could be disastrous.

She couldn't afford to pay for it if anything was missing.

"I agree to let you stay here, but you have to be careful. Make sure to keep the doors and windows tightly closed when you go to sleep at night. There are quite a few bad people on this street."

Zhou Ruan suddenly realized this as well, and then reminded Zhizhi.

As soon as Zhizhi heard that there were bad people, all the hairs on her body stood on end.

"I definitely will. I heard all of Sister Ruan's advice and will definitely do as you say! If there's nothing else, I'll get back to work."

As it drew near the end of the workday, Zhizhi began to relax and became quite at ease.

After all, I don't have to squeeze onto the last bus anymore, so at least I can get a good night's sleep early these next few days.

The employees naturally found out as well, and if there were extra rooms available, they would apply for them as well.

After all, what could be more convenient than staying at a hotel?

"Zhizhi, the landlady is so kind to you, she made room for you in the only empty room in the shop."

The employees nearby couldn't help but make fun of it.

"Look at what you're saying. If you want to blame someone, blame the landlady for being kind and beautiful. Sister Ruan also put in a lot of good words for me, which is why I was able to get it."

Unconsciously, Zhizhi started praising Zhou Wen and Zhou Ruan indiscriminately again.

At this moment, Zhou Ruan also came over.

"Her lips are always as sweet as honey."

"There's nothing we can do, Sister Ruan. It's something she was born with, and we can't change it."

After all, it was precisely because of this that she made a very good impression on both of them.

Closing time came quickly, and the employees left the store one after another.

Only Zhou Ruan and Zhizhi remained. Zhou Ruan was usually the last to leave because she had to stay behind to reconcile accounts.

Zhizhi was also very bored. After tidying up the last table, she prepared to turn off the lights and go upstairs to rest.

But as soon as she finished tidying up, Zhizhi looked out the window and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Less than a few hundred meters from Rella Cafe, several men with fierce-looking faces kept peering into the store.

Because there was a road separating them and the streetlights were dim, Zhizhi couldn't see very clearly.

But one thing she was certain of was that these men were heading into the store.

Zhizhi panicked a little, and immediately remembered what Zhou Ruan had said during the day about the presence of bad people in the vicinity.

I couldn't help but feel scared, and looking at those people, I knew they weren't here with good intentions.

So they immediately handed over Zhou Ruan, who was checking the accounts, and Zhou Ruan was still completely confused.

I don't understand why Zhizhi suddenly called her up.

"Sister Ruan, something bad has happened! It seems like some bad guys are eyeing our shop. Look, there are a few men across the street staring into our shop. I can't see very clearly, but we're the only shop across the street."

Zhizhi's voice trembled with nervousness, and Zhou Ruan immediately became alert upon hearing this.

I didn't look directly out the window, to avoid alerting the enemy.

But after observing it carefully through the glass for a while, I found that it really was true.

The men didn't make their presence very obvious, but they kept lingering on the other side of the road.

No one pays attention to these things during the day; everyone is busy with their own things.

The more Zhou Ruan thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. These people had probably appeared during the day, but they just hadn't noticed.

"Sister Ruan, what should we do?"

"Don't be afraid. As long as we don't go out, they won't do anything. I won't go back today; I'll stay here with you."
