Chapter 423 Sorry, I was distracted!

The images on both sides light up on the phone screen at the same time.

What appears in the picture is the face of a young woman, wearing delicate light makeup and a professional smile on her lips.

The background is a standard office environment. Through the screen, she can clearly see her colleagues at the workstations behind her with their heads down working. The sound of typing on keyboards and light conversations can be heard faintly.

"Hello, is this Mr. Su Chensu?"

The girl's voice came out clearly, "I'm the staff member who called you just now, my name is Xia Shu."

Xia Shu looked at Su Chen on the other side of the video, her eyes lit up slightly, and her originally professional smile unconsciously became more sincere at this moment.

She originally thought that the ID photo uploaded by the system backend was already very good, but she didn't expect that the real person was much more energetic than the photo.

The kind of person who, if you see him on the street while shopping with friends, you can't help but shout in his ear, "Look, there's a handsome guy."

Xia Shu quickly came to her senses. She knew that she was here to work, not for a blind date.

So she quickly controlled her emotions, maintained a decent smile, and prepared to enter the formal interview session.

Only then did Xia Shu notice the environment Su Chen was in.

The other person was currently sitting on a high-end sofa with a very textured feel, with an extremely spacious living room behind him.

In the distance, you can see a spiral staircase.

Relying on her professional qualities, Xia Shu quickly analyzed this information in her mind.

This is obviously not a configuration that an ordinary apartment can have. It is most likely a luxury villa or high-end residence.

Could it be that Mr. Su is working at this moment?

This thought suddenly flashed through Xia Shu's mind.

After all, she had seen many service staff working in customers' homes, and perhaps Su Chen was in a similar situation.

Xia Shu didn't dare to think that Su Chen had taken advantage of the landlord's plan to sell the house some time ago and, relying on the tenant's right of first refusal, had directly paid the money to buy it.

Logically speaking, people who can live in a big villa should not apply to become service staff such as "home cooking".

Xia Shu felt that the most likely scenario was that Su Chen probably also had work like home repairs.

After all, the water pipes, electrical appliances and other facilities in a luxury villa are bound to malfunction and require professional on-site repairs.

"Mr. Su, are you sure it's convenient now?"

Xia Shu had a considerate smile on her face and asked with concern, "I see if you are working? We can interview you later."

When Su Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized that the other party had a misunderstanding.

He subconsciously glanced at the living room where he was, and then said to the phone screen: "It's okay, it's very convenient now."

"This is my home."

Xia Shu blinked and didn't react for a moment.

She subconsciously looked around the environment in the video again, the spacious and almost luxurious space, the exquisite furniture, and the stairs in the distance...

"This is your...own home?? Are you kidding me?"

Xia Shu's voice obviously rose an octave.

As an outstanding employee of the company for three consecutive quarters, she has received the most professional induction training and handled various emergencies.

For example, I have encountered job applicants who lied about their work experience and tried to exaggerate their abilities in order to get a position.

Some people even try to get away with it by using false certificates.

But this was the first time she had seen someone living in a luxurious house applying to be a "home cooking" service provider.

"No kidding, how about I show you the property deed?"

Su Chenshi didn't expect that the first step of the interview seemed to be stuck.

Seeing Xia Shu's face full of suspicion, he didn't say much and stood up directly. Seeing this, Xia Shu's face showed a little panic: "No, no!"

Even if you look at the property title, it won’t change anything. Instead, it will make the situation even more embarrassing.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"It's just that... the service personnel on our platform are usually..."

The words came to her lips, but she swallowed them back.

It is inappropriate and impolite to say something like "I won't live in a mansion" directly.

“Where I live should have nothing to do with your platform, right?”

Su Chen sat back on the sofa, his tone calm.

Xia Shu swallowed unconsciously, feeling that Su Chen didn't seem to be lying.

Her eyes fell on the seemingly ordinary home clothes on Su Chen.

She quickly realized that if she remembered correctly, this was a new model of the season from a luxury brand.

The price of this one piece of clothing alone is equivalent to her two months' salary.

What concerned her even more was Su Chen's casual and natural attitude, as if everything was normal.

For a moment, the video call fell into a brief silence.

Xia Shu's thoughts began to wander uncontrollably. She wondered if Su Chen just needed some kind of on-site repair service, but accidentally clicked the wrong option when registering, and accidentally applied to become a service provider?
She had seen a similar thing online some time ago, saying that someone wanted to order takeout, but ended up registering as a rider without knowing it.

But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she immediately rejected it.

The registration process requires filling in so much information and phone confirmation. A normal person would not make such a mistake.

"Ms. Xia?" Su Chen brought Xia Shu, who was distracted, back to reality.

“Ah! Sorry!!”

Xia Shu suddenly came to her senses and felt her ears burning as she realized that she had been distracted during such an important interview.

She quickly glanced at the list of questions she had prepared in advance, questions that were originally used to understand the service applicant's financial situation, job motivation, etc.

After seeing Su Chen's situation, she knew that obviously none of them were applicable to this special applicant.

“What procedures are required next?”

Su Chen couldn't help but remind him.

By the way, this girl seems a bit unprofessional. How can she be distracted during the interview?

Could it be that I didn’t sleep well last night, which led to my bad mood today?
"I need you to show me your cooking skills..."

Before Xia Shu could finish her words, she saw Su Chen quickly stand up and walk towards the kitchen.

She originally wanted to explain that she only needed to verbally describe a few of her best dishes and roughly explain the cooking methods and techniques, and it was not necessary to demonstrate the actual cooking.

But Su Chen's movements were too fast, so she had to swallow her words back.

Then, the camera of the mobile phone shook violently for a while and then stabilized.

What Xia Shu saw was a modern kitchen that was surprisingly spacious and bright.

Those kitchen utensils are made of fine materials and look very valuable.

Su Chen casually placed his phone against the spice rack, walked to the double-door refrigerator, and took out a green cucumber.

Then he picked up a kitchen knife beside him and started working.
