Chapter 264: Yuan Zhou’s Passive Acting-Cool Skills (Part 1)
“Elder sister, Boss Yuan’s meaning is that you can take a cab when you leave at night. And if there’s not enough time, you can also leave first.”
After saying that, Mu Xiaoyun blinked naughtily.
“Really?” Shen Min was suspicious about that.
“I’m serious. I worked here for two months during the summer vacation.” Said Mu Xiaoyun affirmatively.
Only then did Shen Min believe in her. She looked at Yuan Zhou with uncertainty and again at Mu Xiaoyun.
“I’m leaving. Elder sister, bye.” When Mu Xiaoyun found Shen Min wasn’t that depressed anymore, she ran out of the restaurant and went to meet her brother.
Even if she wasn’t quite sure about that, Shen Min found it inappropriate to ask. After all, Yuan Zhou had said that just now. What else could she ask? She could only work more diligently.
While Yuan Zhou was orderly preparing for the business time at night, Zhou Jia, which had just got off work, nevertheless became unhappy.
Zhou Jia just boarded the bus and was preparing to go to the night school when her phone rang.
On the screen were the two words of Li Fang, which appeared quite conspicuous.
“Why is this person calling me?” With a frown, Zhou Jia only answered the phone after it rang quite a while.
“Jia Jia, why did you answer the phone so slowly?” As soon as the phone was put through, a male voice with slight impatience passed.
The voice sounded good, being loud and clear. The content was nevertheless not as good as the voice.
“What’s the matter?” Zhou Jia usually looked comely. Yet now, her thin eyebrows were frowning as she said indifferently.
“Couldn’t I call you if there are no matters? How’s your studying in the evening college?” said the man deservedly with a tone of amusement.
“Couldn’t be better. I’m going to class.” While speaking of that, Zhou Jia prepared to hang off the phone.
“Hold on. I’m just asking if you want to come to my department to work. I have just been promoted to the director of the cold dish department.” With an unapparent sense of superiority in his tone, the man said quite affirmatively.
“No need. I have got a job. It’s also in a restaurant,” Zhou Jia refused immediately.
“What kind of good job can you find? The duration won’t be long. Besides, you should know I’m working in a four-star hotel.” While speaking, the man revealed obvious arrogance in his tone.
However, that only made Zhou Jia dislike him more.
“So what? My boss cooks much better than the chefs in your hotel,” after a scornful laugh, Zhou Jia said with a fairly affirmative tone.
“Jia Jia, you can’t say like that. The head chef of my hotel is a first-class cook. How could a boss of a tiny restaurant compare with our head chef on culinary skills?” A look of disdain could apparently be imagined out from the way he talked.
“You don’t believe me? Just come and have a taste on your own. Of course, it only works if you are able to afford the dishes,” said Zhou Jia with full of confidence.
“Haw-haw. How expensive could dishes in a tiny restaurant be? I will go to visit you tomorrow,” answered the man with a fairly deserved manner.
“Don’t blame me for not reminding you when you find you can’t afford it. I’m going to class now.” When Zhou Jia was arriving at the right bus stop, she hung up the phone immediately.
“Send the address to my phone…” Even before the male voice ended, Zhou Jia had hung up the phone.
Taking the phone in her hand, Zhou Jia thought for quite a while before sending the address of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant to the man.
It might not be a bad idea to deal this arrogant man a blow. Zhou Jia disliked him very much.
This man was Li Fang, who once had a blind date with Zhou Jia. At that time, Zhou Jia just made some polite greetings with a very conspicuous sense of refusal. But the guy Li Fang had taken a fancy to Zhou Jia and moreover considered himself to be her boyfriend every time.
It was a tradition in Zhou Jia’s hometown that at the first meeting of a blind date, if the lady didn’t reject on the spot or even if she just agreed to make regular friends to start with, the man would think the lady had admitted their relationship. Naturally, Zhou Jia only got to know that after the meeting.
Therefore, she was entangled by him since then. It didn’t work even if Zhou Jia refused him in a euphemistic but explicit way. Li Fang just insisted that they should try to get on together.
