Wen Zhuo smiled, and after breakfast, he showed Nan Yu the operation. She was told not to touch alcohol, but she could grind coffee and do latte art. She just needed to familiarize herself with the arrangement of the items and change her clothes and tie on her apron.
Nan Yu began his workday.
Wen Zhuo asked for the address and drove there.
Chen Pandi wasn't as scared as Nan Yu thought. She found everything about the city incredibly new and exciting. Yesterday, after her brother left, she went downstairs for a stroll and learned a lot about the city.
He even found himself a job as a dishwasher.
Three thousand yuan a month!
"We can't even save enough at home in a year, but I can earn three thousand a month in a big city!" Chen Pandi was incredibly excited at the thought of making money.
If it weren't for waiting for her younger brother, she would have already gone to work today.
Chen Pandi has an exceptional ability to adapt.
Wen Zhuo knocked on the door. Chen Pandi thought it was her younger brother and opened the door, excitedly shouting, "Ah, brother!" before even seeing who it was.
After seeing who it was, Chen Pandi was speechless.
Wen Zhuo had a faint smile on his lips, but it gave off a slightly distant feeling. "Hello, I'm Lin Xun's friend."
Upon hearing that it was her younger brother's friend, she peeked out to look for Nan Yu, asking as she looked:
Where is my brother?
It's not that Chen Pandi is impolite, it's that she doesn't know what politeness is. There are only a few households in the village, and girls are often looked down upon. If she's not assertive, she'll probably be bullied to death.
Wen Zhuo: "The teacher gave us a last-minute notice that he went to school and asked me to tell you."
Chen Pandi exclaimed "Ah!" before remembering to invite Wen Zhuo in to sit down. "Come in, let's talk."
Wen Zhuo also wanted to ask more about Lin Xun, so he didn't refuse.
Nan Yu rented a single room for his sister. After all, land in Haicheng is extremely expensive. Even without a house, it would cost 7,000 to 8,000 yuan, which is unaffordable. So he could only rent a studio apartment with a small sofa inside.
Chen Pandi invited Wen Zhuo to sit down.
Wen Zhuo sat down.
Chen Pandi poured him a glass of water. There were many things in the city that she had to learn on her own. She could learn how to use a kettle and a gas stove by Nan Yu teaching her once and then figuring it out herself.
"Are you and my brother classmates?"
"no."
"You look so young, are you still in school?"
"I've graduated."
"Graduated from junior high school, or high school, or graduated from university like my brother?"
Chen Pandi didn't mean it as mockery. In her mind, being able to study was already a great achievement. To her, graduating from junior high school was like becoming a literary genius. As for Nan Yu going to university, no one in the world was smarter than her brother.
"University."
Wen Zhuo could sense Chen Pandi's situation from the conversation, so he didn't say much. In fact, he had already graduated with a doctorate, but he skipped a lot of schooling and was currently 26.
Chen Pandi exclaimed, "Wow, you're amazing!"
He smiled warmly.
Chen Pandi: "Do you know my other brother? His name is Chen Xu."
Wen Zhuo's smile faded slightly. He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then said, "Isn't Chen Xu a child of the Lin family?"
Chen Pandi nodded: "They were switched at birth." She sighed, "I'm not afraid of what you say about me. He was in our family, and our whole family treated him with the utmost care. Now he's recognized his biological parents and doesn't recognize us poor relatives anymore. I'm not saying he's trying to climb the social ladder, but my brother Xiaoxun, isn't he living in that family? Can you treat your own children and those switched at birth the same way? I'm just afraid my brother will suffer. When I ask him, he won't say anything."
Wen Zhuo didn't cover it up for Nan Yu and told the truth:
“Oh no, he has no status at home. More than a month ago, he was admitted to the ICU and stayed in the hospital for half a month. He almost died.”
Chen Pandi's face was completely drained of color.
"Who did this? Who bullied my brother? Take me there, and I'll see who dares to bully my brother!"
Chen Pandi was both frightened and angry, wishing she could kill everyone who had hurt Nan Yu. Her obedient younger brother was such a bunch of good-for-nothings!
Wen Zhuo: "Chen Xu".
Chen Pandi was furious. To them, Chen Xu was nothing short of a debt collector! If they had known they had been switched at birth, they should have thrown Chen Xu into the latrine and drowned him in excrement!
"You son of a bitch, how dare you bully my brother! You bastard, you motherfucker, where's Chen Xu?! I'll chop him up if I don't do this, I'm not Chen Pandi!"
Wen Zhuo's eyelids twitched as he listened to the uncivilized language, but he was also glad that the Chen family did not kick him while he was down and instead protected Lin Xun.
If everyone sides with Chen Xu.
Wen Zhuohui was very worried about Nan Yu's mental state.
"He can't move. Chen Xu is surrounded by bodyguards. Lin Xun told me not to tell you, afraid you'd worry, but I hope you can see Chen Xu clearly and not have any illusions. Chen Xu has the Lin family. They dare to bully Lin Xun only because they see he has no backing."
Chen Pandi was on the verge of tears, never expecting Chen Xu to be so utterly inhumane!
Although my family is poor, how have we ever mistreated him over the years!
Why are you bullying her brother?!
When Wen Zhuo said his last sentence to Chen Pandi, his real intention was to get the Chen siblings to rely on him, since they couldn't deal with the Lin family, but he could.
However, Chen Pandi misunderstood and, provoked by Wen Zhuo, took a big step closer to becoming a future female business tycoon.
I'm eager to learn.
"Don't worry, I will never acknowledge that ungrateful wretch!"
Wen Zhuo nodded: "Lin Xun is staying at my place, so you don't need to worry too much."
Chen Pandi: "Thank you. I can't help my brother right now, but thanks to you all, my friends, why don't you have a meal here?"
Wen Zhuo stood up. "No, I still have some work to do. Lin Xun asked me to tell you to spend the money you need to spend. He'll feel guilty if you get thin from hunger."
Chen Pandi: "Don't worry, I know. I won't let my brother worry. I'll make sure he takes good care of himself."
After finishing his conversation, Wen Zhuo didn't stay long. However, when he reached the entrance hall and wanted to go to his destination, he asked Nan Yu about her situation at home. Only after confirming that she was alright did he feel relieved enough to go back.
There are two employees in the coffee area. Nan Yu helps out when they are busy, and when they are not busy, she acts as a waitress, delivering the freshly made coffee to the customers, which makes her look good.
Many people are curious and ask him if he is an actor.
noon.
Wen Zhuo returned.
She was also carrying two meals.
Seeing that he bought food for every meal, Nan Yu asked curiously, "Can you cook?"
Wen Zhuo: "I know a little bit, but cooking is too troublesome and makes me all greasy. You can rest assured about the safety of the ingredients; they are all made fresh by five-star chefs, not pre-made dishes."
There's no kitchen here, so Nan Yu can't cook a meal whenever she wants. She can only give up and smile at Wen Zhuo: "It's okay, I'll go to my sister's place to cook for you when I have time. I'm a pretty good cook."
Wen Zhuo smiled and said, "Really? Then I'm really looking forward to it."
Nan Yu smiled and lowered her head to eat.
He has to go to school tomorrow. After seeing off the last group of guests tonight, we had dinner, and he went back to wash up and get ready to rest. Wen Zhuo poured him a glass of milk.
"I've heard that milk helps with sleep."
Nan Yu took the drink and finished it. "Thank you."
Wen Zhuo smiled.
I went out to work.
Previously, there was a fixed number of guests to receive per day, but starting tonight, that's changed. We'll only work until 11 PM, and the rest will be handed over to the staff. Push open the hidden door behind the wine cabinet and go inside.
The footsteps were soft; the boy was already fast asleep.
After taking a shower and drying myself off, I went to the bedside and looked up at the upper bunk. The curtains were drawn tightly, and I couldn't see inside at all.
Wen Zhuo felt itchy, so she took off her shoes and carefully stepped onto the stairs.
Looking at the sleeping person, he wanted to climb into bed and hug them while he slept.
