Chapter 199 Men only affect the speed at which I make money
"Mr. Yao, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left like that yesterday. However, I've already explained everything to my classmates. Mr. Yao, I'll explain it to you in detail someday when you're free."
[I really have nothing to do with him, Master Yao. He's just a psychopath who's been clinging to me.]
Yao Mai chuckled, and the image of Ji Linchen sitting in front of him appeared in his mind. He was not as sick as Xu Jiao said.
He has read it but not replied.
When An Nuan returned to the library, Li Xiong had not memorized a single question.
Just as An Nuan scolded him, she heard Li Xiong ask her, "An Nuan, do you like President Mu?"
An Nuan almost bit her tongue, "What?"
"I saw it all. Were you and Mr. Mu discussing business? You were clearly chatting like close friends. Also, you peeled crayfish for Mr. Mu, and he picked up some food for you. An Nuan, you two are being so ambiguous. Are you and Mr. Mu really just a sponsor and a recipient?"
An Nuan held her forehead with her hand. She peeled crayfish for Mu Sheng, which was completely a conditioned reflex from her previous life when she was his secretary. She didn't expect Li Xiong to observe her so carefully.
But, "Why are you curious about this? Boss Mu and I are, of course, sponsors and sponsored. Li Xiong, have you lost your mind from memorizing questions? What conditions would Boss Mu have to be interested in me?"
Li Xiong: “…”
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Instead of letting your mind wander, you might as well memorize more questions." An Nuan asked him to memorize the questions and accepted his imagination.
But Li Xiong persisted, "What if he falls for you? An Nuan, don't underestimate yourself. You are very good and very strong. Mr. Mu is a rare talent, so his vision is naturally good."
An Nuan rolled her eyes and said, "I think I didn't give you enough questions, which is why you're so idle."
"An Nuan, just answer me truthfully. Boss Mu is someone you can't even find with a lantern. How could you really never be tempted?"
An Nuan: “…”
If I say I don't, I'm definitely lying. If I say I do, I'm not really thinking about that. The key is, "Li Xiong, your determination to get to the bottom of things is excellent. I hope you'll demonstrate this during the exam. Now, I'm telling you the truth: I won't be in love until I become the richest man."
With a click, Li Xiong seemed to hear his own heart breaking.
"Well, there's no need to be so cruel."
"I have to be ruthless. Men will only affect the speed at which I make money. Now you can relax and memorize the questions."
How could he feel at ease? He couldn't feel at ease at all.
"An Nuan, relationships aren't something you can control. I'm just asking out of curiosity, so there's no need to swear an oath to answer me. What I mean is, if you meet someone you like, you can still date them."
An Nuan shook her head. "Let's not talk about it. Love is not as good as money. Cherish your life and stay away from love. Li Xiong, you too."
Li Xiong: “…”
"Okay, hurry up and memorize the questions. The college entrance exam is coming up in a few days."
Li Xiong cried.
In the afternoon, An Nuan was carrying her schoolbag back to her one-bedroom apartment. Passing by a snack bar, she saw Wu Qingqing arguing with Huang Zhong.
Wu Qingqing: "How many times have I told you that I want the scallions and noodles from this place? Suddenly, you changed the supplier and the customers can't get used to it. Will you compensate me?"
"And these garlic and carrots need to be put in there. Some customers like to eat them raw. If you remove them all, what will they eat?"
These days, Wu Qingqing was exhausted and had never felt so powerless.
She didn't want Huang Zhong to help, but he insisted on helping. Wu Qingqing thought that since he had to contribute money and effort, she could just take it as an assessment. In the end, he didn't make her angry and leave. She was lucky.
Huang Zhong, a fifty-year-old, was naturally embarrassed by Wu Qingqing's scolding. He had just said, "Qingqing, this is just the beginning. It will get better over time. You have to give me a chance." When he heard an old customer who came to eat noodles ask, "Sister Wu, has the person changed? Where is An Ge?"
When Wu Qingqing heard the other party mention An Jinfu, she felt even worse.
A regular customer said, "Break up. An Ge now has someone he's willing to marry and sell lunch boxes with. Sister Wu is so noble, An Ge is not worthy of her, so he automatically backs off."
"Ah? How long ago did it happen? Congratulations, Sister Wu..."
"They haven't gotten married yet! Just eat noodles, why so much gossip?" Wu Qingqing glared at the two of them. Huang Zhong told her not to get angry, but Wu Qingqing took it out on him, "This is none of your business. If you're not helping, carry this generation of Xiaomi to the kitchen."
Huang Zhong was startled. The regular customer, who hadn't shut up yet, continued, "Sister Wu, aren't you embarrassing this old man?"
"Exactly. Judging from his clothes, he doesn't look like someone who can do rough work. Brother, where are you from? You should be considered an executive. Sister Wu, congratulations. You didn't get married to Brother An, but you finally caught a rich husband."
"But, you already have a wealthy husband, and you still want to open a shop? Sister Wu, you're really working too hard. Old brother, please let Sister Wu sell the shop to Brother An. It's a pity that Brother An's cooking skills don't have a shop."
Wu Qingqing was so angry that she yelled, "Get out of here! I won't entertain you."
Regular customers were completely disdainful. "Sister Wu, who caught a rich husband, is just different. She looks down on us. Let's go, let's go eat somewhere else."
Wu Qingqing was very angry.
