Of course, senior sister Ying Shiqian also came back with her, but I didn’t expect that senior sister Tang Yihan also came back with the store manager. Could it be that they met when they went out to buy materials?
At this time, Xia Li stretched out her hands and pinched both sides of my face. It can be seen that she has a strong desire to interact with others at this time, as if she has a great joy that she doesn't know how to release.
It would be better if you ignore the tattered clothes she is wearing. It is obvious that the store manager must have been through a battle, and a terrible one.
He didn't even change his clothes. Besides the tattered holes and blood stains, I wouldn't have noticed if I wasn't so close to him.
"Okay, manager, stop bullying Xiaohan." Tang Yihan spoke up to stop him.
"Yihan, how can this be called bullying? Xiaohan, do you think the store manager bullied you?"
"Um...no."
I looked into the store manager's eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke. After all, she is the store manager. What Senior Sister Tang Yihan said is right, she is going to give me money, so I should just give in.
Now it's just being pinched on the face.
After that, I have to find a way to get the store manager to give me more money. This is the right way to take revenge.
"Look, Xiaohan doesn't think I'm bullying her. I'm very happy today. I finally experienced the creaking sound of the birdmen's wings being broken again. It was a wonderful sound... accompanied by their painful wails..."
Xia Li was interrupted again before she could finish her words, causing the store manager to look at Tang Yihan with a strange look in his eyes.
"Manager, Xiaohan is still a freshman at the academy. You will scare Xiaohan if you say that."
"Well... that's true. But you just have to get used to this kind of thing, Xiaohan. You're already a prospective witch now, and you'll encounter this kind of thing often in the future..." After Xia Li reacted, she came to me again and lectured me.
To be honest, I was not scared by what the store manager said. I just felt it was very novel. The birdman the store manager mentioned should be the student of the so-called Holy Angel Academy.
I didn't expect that the Holy Angel Academy is similar to the Witch Academy, even the races have changed.
The Witch Academy used an unknown source of magic power to transform people into witches, so what methods did the Holy Angel Academy use to turn people into angels?
Suddenly I became curious.
"Uh-huh."
At this time, I was listening humbly, without any discomfort or rebuttal.
Therefore, the store manager was very satisfied with me as an obedient clerk and gave me extra rewards for my persistence in the store.
No matter how you look at it, this statement seems like a random excuse to give money to employees.
I have to say, when talking about giving me a bonus, the store manager was the coolest at that time!
After exchanging pleasantries in the store for a while, the store manager changed his clothes with the help of Ying Shiqian and her two senior sisters.
At the same time, the store temporarily put up a sign saying it was temporarily closed. In fact, if you ask me, it doesn't matter whether the sign is hung or not. There are not many customers at this time, especially after something like this just happened, there are even fewer customers. However, there are many senior schoolmates who came out to watch the show on the street.
The previous battle affected many places. Although the bakery was intact, those places nearby would need to be rebuilt on a large scale.
"We are temporarily closed for business today. Don't worry, Xiaohan. Today's attendance will be counted as full-day hours. I have something to announce right away!" As the store manager, Xia Li is the one with the most say in the store at this moment.
However, when he said he was going to make an announcement, I was the only one who showed a curious look, as the two senior students seemed to have guessed what it was.
"Let's go have a good meal together at noon today! It's my treat!"
After listening to it, my enthusiasm gradually subsided. Should I say it was surprising or not surprising at all?
It's really nice to go out for a nice meal and have the manager pay for it.
Compared to these, I would rather listen to them explain what happened just now.
After all, once a person's gossiping thoughts arise, they can no longer be suppressed.
Chapter 40: You have to choose expensive food at the celebration banquet
Finally, the store manager led us to the location she had chosen.
Because they were all used to riding flying brooms, I had no choice but to reluctantly ride on my senior sister's broom and come here together.
I have to say that even though I have experience of being flown by others, different senior students have different flying habits, and the experiences they bring me are also different.
The person who gave me a ride this time was senior Tang Yihan. I was very scared along the way, fearing that I would fall.
At this time, I finally felt the favor from Sister Bai, and my flying was really stable.
The place we arrived at was a very low-key restaurant. At first, I thought that given the manager's personality, he would choose a crowded and lively place.
For example, in bars and KTVs, people can drink as much as they want and release their inner joy.
The final result was neither.
During the journey, although we were flying in the sky, the senior student couldn't help but show off her glorious deeds just now, but I also roughly heard some things.
For example, the situation that occurred this time was caused by Manager Xia Li.
And what Charlie did, I should have known before.
Of course, he went to kidnap this year's top scholar.
And now it seems that this matter has been successful. At present, Tan Han is already in the academy and is said to be trying to calm down the emotions.
It’s really hard for that top scholar.
I also took the time to look at the tasks in the college system. The task that was pinned to the top of the college was indeed shown as completed. The people who completed the task did not choose to hide their personal information, but unfortunately, Xia Li and the others were not included.
Yes, he was probably asked to assist. After all, this kind of mission can be directly accepted from the academy, why go through so much trouble to go around to the store manager?
But judging from the store manager's appearance, he must have gotten a lot of benefits.
However, what I didn't quite understand at that time was that Xia Li only got the price that Ying Shiqian had agreed upon in the past, and she didn't get anything extra. She was so happy just because she had ripped off a few students from the Holy Angel Academy.
As for why she is so obsessed with this, perhaps only Xia Li herself knows.
"This restaurant is by appointment only. I made a reservation yesterday. It's a last-ditch effort. I want to have a good meal today!"
The store manager talked to us while leading us inside. It seemed that the store was even deeper inside.
After only walking two steps, I saw the person coming to greet us. He was wearing a simple cloth, which was obviously a chef's uniform. When he saw us, he smiled and came to greet us warmly.
"Xia Li! I haven't seen you for a long time. I received your reservation call yesterday, and I started preparing for today's dishes yesterday~"
Well, it seems like this boss has a very close relationship with the store manager.
Speaking of such a high-end reservation-based restaurant, I, a country boy, have never been there before. But seeing how calm the two seniors look, I guess there shouldn't be anything special about it.
"Really? What's the main course this time? I can't wait! I've even brought a new employee with me this time, so we can celebrate their joining."
As Charlie spoke, she pulled my hand towards her.
"Let me introduce some to you. This... um..." Having said this, Xia Li suddenly calmed down and looked at Ying Shiqian with a slightly embarrassed look.
It was obvious that the store manager had not yet cared about my name. He only knew that two senior students had called me Xiaohan.
"Hello, senior sister. My name is Yang Yuehan. You can just call me Xiaohan."
I spoke very politely to help the store manager out. This store manager was really irresponsible. He didn't even ask the employee's name in advance.
I also learned the boss’s name from my senior.
Although it feels very sad, it also indirectly reflects that I am not actually valued by the store manager now. After all, I am just a part-time worker.
"Xiao Han, that's great. Are you a freshman this year? You've arrived at the academy so early?"
"Well, I want to adapt to college life in advance."
"Haha, are you still used to it? What happened this morning was rare. Don't let anything bad happen to you about the academy."
"No, no."
I quickly spoke, and then weakened my presence. After all, in the current situation, it is better for me not to be so conspicuous. Although the store manager also said that this celebration also included the joining of new employees, the protagonist this time was still the store manager.
Should I toast the store manager at that time? I think there is no such culture in this world... It seems not, after all, I don’t care much about this.
After entering the store, I found that the space inside was not very big and there were not many seats. It was as if the kitchen was moved to the front desk and the ingredients were cooked in front of the customers.
Is this the original form?
No wonder it only requires an appointment, and the store is located in such a secluded place. This shows that they simply don’t take the flow of people seriously. Do they think that appointments made by acquaintances are enough to support this store?
How terrifying must the profit be? Or does she have other side jobs like the store manager?
Looking at the store manager and the boss again, their relationship makes it hard for me not to be suspicious. Maybe this boss is even more terrifying than the store manager?
It's not impossible.
I watched the boss walk towards her home court, and only then did I realize that there was a girl next to her who was a little younger than the boss.
But even so, I will still call the other person "senior".
He must be this boss's apprentice.
She seemed a little embarrassed just like me, but she still behaved quite naturally and didn't talk much behind the boss.
After sitting down, the atmosphere in the store seemed to become a lot more relaxed, and the same was true for the two senior students. Although they were eating, it seemed more like they were chatting.
Before starting, he asked me about my dietary restrictions, etc.
It seems to be very professional, at least for now.
Then came the presentation of today’s ingredients, although I couldn’t understand what they were all about, because they involved many extraordinary creatures that I had never encountered before.
This is not animal meat that is soaked in high-concentration supernatural energy, but it is an ingredient of a higher-level life form that possesses supernatural powers... At least now they are ingredients, and they will soon be on my plate.
This grand sense of ceremony is indeed novel, but I am more curious about its taste.
"Xiao Han, do you want to drink? This is the low-concentration kind, which can be used as an alcoholic beverage." Senior Tang Yihan, who was sitting next to me, placed a bottle of wine next to me. Judging from the packaging, it must be a very expensive one.
"Well...it's better to take less."
"Please make yourself at ease. But don't be polite to the manager. She is the one treating us this time." Senior Tang Yihan said in my ear.
Maybe because they saw that no one was talking to me, after Ying Shiqian and the store manager left Tang Yihan behind, they came over to talk to me.
"Xiao Han, do you see that piece of meat in the display case? When it's served later, eat it up. It's not only delicious but also expensive."
"Okay...okay..."
Chapter 41 Spell Book: Cleansing
After having enough wine and food.
The bakery has closed early today, but this will not cause any inconvenience to people nearby.
In the end, the store manager was dragged away by senior sisters Ying Shiqian and Tang Yihan.
This time there were six of us guests including the chef, and two of them got drunk in the end.
One of them is the other party’s boss.
I could already feel the embarrassment and helplessness of the boss's apprentice.
So I ended up taking half a day off with pay, and there wasn't much I could do this afternoon.
The only thing to do is to do some chores in the store and then close the store.
"Wait, Xiaohan, don't leave yet."
Just as I was punching in and preparing to leave, I was stopped by senior Tang Yihan.
"Is there anything wrong, senior?" I turned around and looked at her. She wouldn't let me work overtime, right? I have paid leave, even though it's only half a day, but I will have to pay extra if I go to work again.
"Of course there is something. You're lucky this time." Senior Sister Tang Yihan kept me in suspense for a rare time and walked towards me with an expression that said, "You've got a great deal."
"Lucky? What's wrong?"
"Here, take this." Tang Yihan handed something that looked like a ball of light into my hand.
"This is?"
I subconsciously took the ball of light. It seemed to have no weight and emitted a soft halo that was not dazzling even to the naked eye.
"This is a spell book. I took advantage of the store manager's good mood to get her stock. It's the cleaning spell that we talked about before."
"really?"
When I heard the senior say that, my eyes widened immediately. Is this a spell book? I thought it was a skill book that looked like a book, but I didn't expect it to be like this?
"Of course, use it quickly. This thing will slowly self-destruct if it is out of its specific storage container."
