Chapter 41 "The Working Girl" Saving the Villain's Childhood (Part 4)...
Being a food delivery driver is probably the most common, most in-demand, and easiest job to get into in modern society. Apart from the electric scooter and the driver, there is basically no additional investment required.
But since she's just entered this world, she needs to be cautious. She should use this half-day to familiarize herself with the work and make preliminary preparations.
This electric vehicle dealership offers vehicle registration services, which saved Ye Xiqing a lot of trouble, but next, she should take care of herself.
Although there are no regulations on what a delivery driver must look like, this fiery red dress, long fingernails, and waist-length wavy hair are clearly inappropriate.
Ye Xiqing used her own nail clippers to trim the excess nails, and then left the nail polish on her hands alone, knowing it would fall off on its own in a few days.
It's not worth straightening such thick hair; I might as well cut it all off and let it grow back.
Although she had long hair in her original world, she didn't have a long hair obsession. When she was very busy with scientific research in the previous world, she simply cut it off. In this world, of course, she wanted her own natural hair.
She herself didn't pay much attention, but the system was about to emit a sharp, explosive sound.
The most captivating part of the heroine's body in the original book—her stunningly beautiful hair that wrapped around her body like Venus—has been lost!
Ye Xiqing also exchanged it for a sum of money!
Normally, hair treated with chemicals wouldn't fetch a high price, but this is the female lead's hair, after all.
Even after being ravaged by the chemicals, it still retained its tough and smooth nature, leaving the barber stunned. After some haggling, it was sold for a thousand yuan, adding another source of income out of nowhere.
When you're broke, seeing money come into your account makes you happier than when you're rich.
Ye Xiqing was so happy that the corners of her mouth turned up. With the money, she bought a set of high-quality hiking clothes and sneakers.
With this inflow and outflow, her savings were running low again.
But for a single woman with no relatives, having a little money is enough to support herself. As a transmigrator, she doesn't even have to worry about retirement. When her time comes, she can simply die and return to the system space. Life is too easy!
I happily put on my helmet, getting a taste of the wonderful life ahead, and then twisted the accelerator and sped off.
She ran ahead, while the system chased after her, shouting, "Host, are you crazy! This is a live entertainment program, who would want to watch the female lead deliver takeout?!"
Ye Xiqing focused on riding her bike and didn't look at it, but her face remained calm and composed: "No, it's precisely because it's an entertainment program that people are willing to watch it."
As the saying goes: It's not news when a dog bites a man, it's news when a man bites a dog.
"The translation is: It's not news that the female lead debuted in the music industry, but it is news that she delivers takeout."
system:……
It was about to go crazy, but its audience was completely under Ye Xiqing's control, and even more and more people were pouring in to watch the show.
"Haha, that makes sense. I have to admit, I'm attracted to this unconventional approach."
"The female lead overcomes all obstacles to become a pop diva: Common. The female lead overcomes all obstacles to become a food delivery queen: 666."
"Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter! I don't know why, but watching the female lead deliver takeout is so hilarious!"
"Lord Qingqing! Please become the ultimate food delivery queen!"
Ye Xiqing possesses a unique charm that easily attracts not only those within the small world but also viewers outside the screen.
Even if the system is full of frustration, no one gives it a chance to show itself.
Who would have thought that if they weren't watching her closely, the female lead would go out to deliver takeout!
...
Following the job postings, Ye Xiqing quickly found a job she liked.
A fast food restaurant located in a business district is doing very well. The previous delivery driver suddenly quit, and the restaurant owner is in a hurry to find a new one.
Sometimes, certain terms and conditions of food delivery platforms are quite unfair to merchants, so some merchants are unwilling to sign with the platform and instead hire delivery drivers privately.
In this case, the delivery-by-volume model is not suitable for the store when it is busy, and it is not suitable for the delivery driver when it is not busy. After a tug-of-war, a compromise was made: a fixed salary of four thousand a month.
But there's a reason why well-known food delivery platforms can grow so large and dare to hire so many people. Individual delivery workers are definitely not as attractive as the delivery workers offered by large platforms, so they are not easy to recruit.
The fast food restaurant owner was so anxious that she was on the verge of a breakdown. She had been personally delivering the food for the past few days, and as soon as she heard that someone was applying for the job, she rushed over immediately.
The restaurant owner was stunned for a moment when he saw Ye Xiqing.
It's not because Ye Xiqing is a woman; she herself is a woman.
But this face is a bit too young and too fashionable. Even with a very durable buzz cut, it doesn't look like someone who can do this job for a long time.
I couldn't help but ask, "Is this for college students working part-time? We don't hire part-time workers; we need someone available 24/7."
Ye Xiqing immediately took out her ID card to prove herself: "I'm not a college student, but I really need this job and I will do it seriously."
The shopkeeper looked at her with suspicion; she really did have a face that looked like she might quit at any moment!
I was filled with concerns, but no one else applied for the job.
Since that's the case, let's put it to the test and see what it's like. Let's get to work today and see how many days we can last.
If she keeps delivering them herself, she'll be exhausted!
...
Ye Xiqing originally intended to experience the environment, but she didn't expect the industry to be so radical; she was put to work as soon as she arrived.
In that case, let's get straight to work.
The fast food restaurant she chose offered both in-store and delivery services.
The restaurant offers self-service dishes like a cafeteria, while takeout is served in a mixed-meal lunchbox. Because the prices are affordable, the variety of dishes is plentiful, and the taste is quite good, it perfectly meets the basic requirement of the office workers in the building to have a full lunch.
However, because it's not fancy enough, it won't become a source of late-night meals for working stiffs. Basically, once it's past seven or eight o'clock in the evening, when there are few customers, it's time to close up shop.
Ye Xiqing wanted to experience the "freedom" of delivering food, not to become a workhorse, and therefore didn't want to be the kind of model worker who was still running around outside in the middle of the night.
However, this "freedom of time" is only relative. In fact, getting off work at nine o'clock is late enough. It's relatively easy if you live nearby, but if you add the time to get home, it becomes a bit unpleasant.
Because of this, Ye Xiqing had the idea of moving.
There are many cheap apartments or shared rooms available for rent near the shopping area.
While familiarizing herself with the routes and completing her food delivery tasks, Ye Xiqing also kept an eye out for rental information in the vicinity.
The simple lunchboxes at the shop where she worked probably catered to two types of people: those who worked hard in high-rise buildings at noon, and those who were too tired to move after get off work and return to their apartment buildings in the evening, let alone cook for themselves.
This group actually overlaps quite a bit with her, so their place of residence is exactly the kind of place she wants to move to in the future.
Ye Xiqing checked the orders as she delivered them, successfully completing all the deliveries before returning to the restaurant to report for duty.
The restaurant owner was also a little surprised. This very fashionable young woman was actually delivering food in a very down-to-earth way, and she was quite efficient!
The boss, relieved that his worries were resolved, was overjoyed. When he heard that Ye Xiqing wanted to find a place to rent nearby, he was even more enthusiastic and said that he would take care of it. After all, who wouldn't like to have a personal saddle?
She used to treat Meng Xuedong this way, but now, for some reason, she felt a little conflicted.
It seems that karma is a cycle, and what goes around comes around; what goes around comes around.
...
After saying goodbye to her boss, Ye Xiqing went home.
This time, she neither took a taxi nor a bus, but drove her new car, enjoying the refreshing evening breeze, and speeding through the neon lights of the night.
Logically speaking, delivering food for half a day, including many old buildings without elevators, requires climbing up and down stairs, which should be very tiring.
But the plot took a turn for the better. Ye Xiqing made full use of this body and discovered that the plot's claim that Fu Yunzhen was in good health was actually true!
She felt as if her body had been upgraded. Before, when she was in her own body, she never imagined that someone could do all sorts of activities so easily.
So this is what Ye Xueli, a dance student from the previous world, felt when she used her flexible body.
The system simply doesn't know what Ye Xiqing is thinking; if it did, it would definitely be in tears.
To be able to sing and dance on stage for several hours straight without losing your breath, your physical fitness must be top-notch.
But that's no excuse for using your excellent physical condition to deliver food!
Ye Xiqing wasted her future queen of pop's top-tier body by using it for simple, unpretentious manual labor.
I left my electric scooter at the charging point downstairs, and then, with my excellent physical condition, went upstairs. There, I saw another person at her door.
A woman wearing gray work clothes and with her hair tied in a low ponytail was peering through the peephole.
Beside her was a little girl, the same little girl we'd met during the day, who was tugging at the woman's clothes and seemed to be crying.
Seeing this, Ye Xiqing almost laughed. She tiptoed over and asked quietly, "What are you doing?"
"Aww!"
The woman with the low ponytail was startled and quickly turned around, pulling her daughter behind her. Upon seeing Ye Xiqing's face, she was startled a second time: "You are...you are..."
Looking at the woman's face, Ye Xiqing understood; the little heroine had asked her mother for help.
The original owner didn't care much about her neighbors, but Ye Xiqing was quite interested in getting to know them. She smiled at the woman and said, "Hello, my name is Fu Yunzhen, the woman next door. I have a new hairstyle today."
Qiu Hui: ...
When she got home from get off work today, her daughter cried as soon as she saw her.
Qiu Hui was already exhausted after a long day, and seeing her daughter cry only made her more irritable. She asked impatiently, "What's wrong!"
The little girl cried loudly as she told her what had happened during the day.
At six years old, her expressive ability was already quite strong, almost too strong; the more Qiu Hui listened, the more engrossed she became.
What? You cooked the child?
This is so shocking! Even if she is a tired middle-aged woman who is burdened by her work and doesn't want to care about what's happening in the outside world, she can't ignore something like this!
Led by her daughter, she was secretly figuring out what was going on inside when she was suddenly caught red-handed, which nearly scared her to death!
Startled, and seeing Ye Xiqing's new look, a new question arose, and she stammered, "You... why did you cut your hair? Your old hair looked so nice..."
Ye Xiqing touched her head and said calmly, "This morning, I sent the child to his father. I also want to start a new life."
"Let go of the things from the past if possible, and live a good life from now on."
"I was not in a good mental state before, and I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Oh, so she gave the child to her father. What was that brat saying?
Having said goodbye to the huge legal section, Qiu Hui immediately had a new idea.
What was it that drove a woman to such madness?
What made her change overnight?
Seeing the woman's growing curiosity, Ye Xiqing opened the door and smiled at her: "Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"
