After lunch, the three of them said goodbye and Du Chen went straight back to the eyewear store. He stayed there for the whole afternoon, reading novels when he had nothing to do, or helping Ren Surong entertain customers.
It was not until the evening that Master Du and Master Ding finished their day's work and returned to the eyewear store.
As soon as he entered the eyewear store, Du Bin slumped down on the chair in a very ungraceful manner. Although Ding Miaomiao was a little better than Du Bin, she was not much better either. She also leaned on the chair, looking listless.
"Brother, Sister Miaomiao, why are you so listless? Are you so tired?"
Du Chen looked at the two tired people with some confusion. Why did it feel like they had been moving half a brick all day and were covered in dust?
"Ah, don't mention it..."
Du Bin moved his lips and said this.
Du Chen looked at Ding Miaomiao in confusion again, but Ding Miaomiao waved at Du Chen listlessly, indicating that she didn't want to talk either.
"Are you really that tired? Why do I feel like Brother Li asked you to move bricks?"
Du Chen said to Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, feeling both amused and helpless.
"Ah, Chenchen, let's take a break first. We can talk about it together when we eat. Otherwise, if I finish telling you now, I will have to tell you again later."
Du Bin half-closed his eyes and looked ahead blankly. After explaining to Du Chen, he just sat there in a daze without saying a word, trying to relieve his fatigue.
Looking at the listless Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, Du Chen went upstairs and got two bottles of Jianlibao, ready to replenish their sugar intake.
"Chenchen, just drink one can. We're going to have dinner soon. Will you eat after drinking two cans?"
Ren Surong looked at the drink in Du Chen's hand and reminded Du Chen.
"Mom, I'm not drinking this. I'm bringing it to my brother and sister Miaomiao."
"Are they both back?"
Ren Surong asked Du Chen curiously. She was just wondering when Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao would be back, but now they were already sitting downstairs.
"Yeah, I just came back and they look exhausted. I'll get them both some drinks to replenish their water and sugar."
Du Chen explained to Ren Surong.
"Then I'll go down and take a look. Why are you so tired?"
Ren Surong was a little worried, so she washed her hands and prepared to go down and take a look, otherwise she would be worried.
"No need, Mom. I guess I'm just not used to working the first day, so I'm a little tired. Let's talk after dinner."
Du Chen hurriedly stopped Ren Surong, not noticing that Jia Xiaomin next to him was also getting anxious. However, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao obviously didn't want to talk now, so why were they going downstairs?
"Okay, then go down and watch over them. We'll talk about it later while we eat!"
Ren Surong put aside her worries and told Du Chen to go down and take care of the two of them.
"Brother, Sister Miaomiao, let me give you a drink!"
When they went downstairs, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao were still sitting there. Du Chen walked over, opened the drinks and handed them to them.
Du Bin took the drink and gulped it down without saying a word. He was obviously very thirsty. Although Ding Miaomiao was not as bold as Du Bin, she also drank it one sip after another. She was also very thirsty.
"belch……"
In a short while, Du Bin finished a can of Jianlibao and then burped with satisfaction.
"Brother, Sister Miaomiao, do you want another can?"
Looking at Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao who looked satisfied, Du Chen couldn't help but ask them a question.
"No, if you drink any more, you won't be able to eat later. Chenchen, how long will it take for dinner? I'm starving."
Du Bin, who had recovered a little, asked Du Chen.
"It's almost done. It will probably be ready in a little while. What's wrong? Didn't Li Dewen give you lunch?"
Du Chen's tone couldn't help but carry a hint of dissatisfaction towards Li Dewen.
Du Bin hadn't noticed yet, but Ding Miaomiao had already heard that Du Chen was a little unhappy. Afraid that the two would have a misunderstanding, Ding Miaomiao hurriedly explained to Du Chen.
"No, Chenchen. Brother Li took us to a restaurant at noon today. It's just that I walked a lot today and I'm not used to it, so I feel a little tired."
"Oh, that's good, Sister Miaomiao. Then you two should take a break first. We can chat together during the branch meeting dinner!"
Du Chen said a word of concern to the two of them, and let them sit there to rest, while he continued to sit there and read the novel.
About twenty minutes later, Du Chen heard the sound of an engine stalling outside the shop. Hearing this, he knew Lao Du had returned. Sure enough, the next second, Lao Du and Lao Ding walked into the shop.
"Hey, Du Bin and Miao Miao, you guys are back? How was your first day at work?"
Comrade Lao Du saw Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao sitting on the chairs at a glance, and asked them with a smile.
"Dad, you want my brother and sister Miaomiao to rest for a while, right? If there are any problems, we can talk about it during dinner. Let them relax first."
Without waiting for Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao to speak, Du Chen took the initiative to explain to Comrade Lao Du.
"Um?"
Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding were a little confused, but looking at the listless Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, they stopped talking and sat on a chair beside them.
However, before Lao Du and Lao Ding could get comfortable, Jia Xiaomin came down from the second floor.
"Lao Du, Lao Ding, kids, wash your hands and eat!"
Jia Xiaomin greeted a few people and turned back to the second floor. Comrade Lao Du and others also stood up to wash their hands and eat.
At the dinner table.
"Dad, please tell me about today's visit to Kiki's place. Let my brother and sister Miaomiao have a meal first."
Seeing Comrade Lao Du about to speak, Du Chen understood that Comrade Lao Du and the others were all worried about what happened to Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, but seeing that the two were tired and hungry, Du Chen decided to let them fill their stomachs first. He was also very curious about what Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding had done in Kiki's store today.
When mentioning Kiki's tattoo shop, Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding became excited, and Lao Ding spoke first.
“Sister Ren, wife, you haven’t seen it, tattoos can be so beautiful. I thought tattoos were like what they are now, either animals or animals, and they are so ugly.”
Old Ding thought of the tattoo on Kiki's arm again, and said to Ren Surong and Jia Xiaomin in amazement.
"How much prettier could it be? Why did you do a complete about-face all of a sudden?"
Jia Xiaomin looked at Lao Ding curiously. Lao Ding didn't hate tattoos, but he certainly didn't have a good impression of them. But now, it seems that her man is quite interested in tattoos?
"Xiao Jia, that's because you haven't seen it. The tattoo on Kiki's arm is like an ink painting, so beautiful. It's really different from the tattoos of those gangsters you've seen before!"
Comrade Lao Du also joined in the praise.
"Ink painting? Is it that amazing?"
Ren Surong was incredulous. Did she think she had never seen tattoos before? The guy in the unit next door had a snake and a sword tattooed on his arm, and a young woman from her hometown had the word "忍" (forbearance) tattooed on her arm. And they didn't seem particularly beautiful. Instead, they looked a bit silly.
"Really, my dear, I'm not lying to you. Next time you see Kiki's tattoos, you'll know how amazing they are! We even saw the live show today, and there were colorful tattoos, they were really beautiful!"
