Those big men are always loitering around outside.
Zhizhi couldn't settle her mind at all; she always felt that those men would ruin the shop.
Although it's nonsense and there's no evidence to support it.
But Zhizhi is convinced that her sixth sense is very strong.
"Sister Ruan, how am I supposed to go to work in peace with this? I'm living in constant fear every day."
To avoid being overheard by other employees, Zhizhi whispered in Zhou Ruan's ear.
"Don't worry, go to work. I can guarantee your safety. Nothing will happen."
Zhou Ruan assured them confidently, knowing that the men hadn't received any orders from above.
They only dared to keep watch, and dared not do anything else reckless.
"Can you really guarantee that? Sister Ruan, I'm really scared. Can you imagine? It's like having a bunch of zombies chasing you relentlessly!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ruan couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine:
"Your little brain is so full of paranoia, it's time to get it treated!"
"No, I was just scared when I was pushed to the limit. That's why I have such a vivid imagination."
Zhizhi muttered something to herself and turned to look at the men outside the window.
For the past few days, several men have been patrolling outside.
"You, you should focus on your work. Business has been pretty good lately, so we all need to work harder. If things don't go well, we might have to work overtime."
"What! Overtime? No way! I'd rather focus on my work and resolutely resist overtime!"
Zhizhi thought about how she hadn't worked overtime much since she started working.
It's really unbearable to suddenly have to work overtime.
Seeing Zhizhi's stubborn refusal, Zhou Ruan couldn't help but want to laugh.
Overtime is out of the question; I'm just threatening her. You know, Zhizhi is most afraid of working overtime.
Last time, asking her to work overtime was like taking her life, only after she begged and pleaded.
The agreement was reached that even if she had to work long day shifts, she couldn't work night shifts; otherwise, she would refuse to comply.
Zhou Ruan was no match for her charm and coquettish tactics, so she naturally gave in.
This is something that probably no one could resist.
"Okay, okay, I won't make you work overtime. Please go and get back to work now, okay?"
Zhou Ruan was also helpless, but these were just superficial phenomena.
In reality, Zhou Ruan could be completely controlled by Zhizhi.
"Yes, Sister Ruan. I'll go right away!"
After saying that, she quickly turned around to take the customers' orders.
Zhou Ruan sighed slightly; what Zhizhi had just said wasn't entirely without merit.
If those men were to actually harm them, they would truly regret it.
But then I thought that the guy surnamed Gu wasn't that stupid; how could he be so foolish as to let people in and cause trouble?
When the police arrive, no one will be able to defend themselves, and no one will be able to escape responsibility.
Surely someone surnamed Gu wouldn't be so ignorant of this basic principle, especially since what people in their line of work fear most is the police.
After finishing her thought, Zhou Ruan decided to pull herself back to work.
Who knew that after glancing outside, Lu Fan would swagger in.
After a few days of not caring, I suddenly realized that I didn't seem so bad after seeing him again.
Ever since Zhou Wen said those things to her, Zhou Ruan has regarded Lu Fan as her last lifeline.
All the hope rests on him.
Zhou Ruan told herself to hold her breath and concentrate, telling herself that she must hold back and not lose her temper!
If they scare Lu Fan away again, then Rella Cafe and the two of them will have no hope.
After Lu Fan entered the room and saw Zhou Ruan, he recalled how he had opposed her a few days ago.
So a wicked idea began to sprout in his mind.
He wanted to tease this little hothead properly!
"Hi, good morning, Ms. Zhou!"
The overly attentive greetings almost made Zhou Ruan sick of it.
This guy has been acting strangely these past few days. After all, they've developed a deep-seated hatred for each other.
"Mr. Lu, what brings you to the shop today?"
Zhou Ruan originally tried her best to control her emotions, but the words just slipped out.
I realized that I couldn't control myself just by wanting to.
She genuinely couldn't greet the ghost calmly.
Even if Lu Fan is their lifeline, that's no exception.
Seeing Zhou Ruan's sudden change in attitude towards her, Lu Fan thought there must be something fishy going on.
A thought suddenly struck me: "Haven't seen you for a few days, have you missed me?"
"What the heck?! This is just wishful thinking! Who gave him the courage?"
At this moment, Zhou Ruan had already mentally cursed Lu Fan eight hundred times.
She silently turned her head away, not wanting to see Lu Fan's narcissistic face at all.
However, out of respect, Zhou Ruan compromised.
Even if I'm unwilling to give them a friendly look, there's nothing I can do, for Rella Cafe, for my sister.
She decided to give all her smiles to the dog, which made her feel a little better.
"Mr. Lu, I didn't expect that you would become even more disrespectful after just a few days apart."
Zhou Ruan looked at Lu Fan with a forced smile, her face full of flattery and obsequiousness.
She is completely different from Zhou Ruan from the previous two days.
No one dares to admit this, not even Zhou Ruan herself can't see it clearly.
Lu Fan was also surprised. He never expected that just two days ago, the guy was baring his teeth at him, but today he was addressing him politely as Mr. Lu. This was truly astonishing.
Although something felt off, at least he's not as short-tempered as he used to be.
This is definitely something to agree with!
"What are you saying? We've met a few times already, so we're friends to some extent. It shouldn't be a problem for me to exchange a few pleasantries with a friend, right?"
Seeing that Zhou Ruan was being so polite, Lu Fan decided not to lecture her anymore and instead wanted to have a proper talk with her.
After all, he genuinely didn't believe that there were women with such explosive tempers in the world!
To be honest, this is unheard of; Zhou Ruan is a perfect example.
Zhou Ruan was completely dumbfounded when she heard this, wondering if Lu Fan was also mentally unstable.
She felt she was already acting very strangely, but she never expected Lu Fan to pull this stunt!
It's already a blessing that they're not enemies; calling them friends is definitely overstepping the line.
In Zhou Ruan's view, it was simply a fantasy that they could never become friends!
Even if they become friends through conflict, they are still enemies.
Zhou Ruan had long been mentally prepared to fight at any time.
But after her older sister said those words to her, her subconscious began to gradually weaken that idea.
She knew that her older sister was now focusing all her attention on this guy.
"I don't consider you a friend."
