Chapter 236 – Daily Life (2)

“Good evening, C-Chen Yu…” After removing the head of her costume with great difficulty, Xing Biqi awkwardly said, “What a coincidence, haha.”

“Are you working part-time here?”

“Mhm.” Xing Biqi lowered her head, afraid to look at Chen Yu in the eyes.

“It’s the White Rabbit Sister from last time,” Chen Sanke exclaimed.

“White Rabbit Sister?” Chen Yu couldn’t help but be taken aback by Chen Sanke’s words.

“Ng!” Chen Sanke nodded. “This Big Sister gave me a White Rabbit Candy last time.”

“Little Sister, d-do you want this?” Xing Biqi hurriedly took out a box of high-quality grapes from her down jacket. She then removed the plastic wrap and offered two to Chen Sanke.

Chen Sanke accepted the grapes and stuffed them into her mouth without hesitation. She then happily said, “Thank you, Grape Sister.”

“T-Third Eldest! Don’t use such strange names in the future!” Chen Yu said as he pinched his forehead. “Just call her Big Sis.”

“Okay~~(*^▽^*)”

“T-Take a few more.” Xing Biqi grabbed two more grapes and handed them to Chen Sanke. She then looked toward Chen Yu’s two other little sisters and asked, “D-Do you want some?”

“Thanks for the offer.” Chen Yike shook her head with a strange expression on her face.

“I’m not eating it!” Chen Sanke answered in a hostile tone.

Smiling awkwardly, Xing Biqi carefully stored the remaining grapes into her jacket.

Chen Yu had keen eyesight, so he noticed the price tag on the box.

[Imported from America: 125 yuan.]

He recalled that Xing Biqi said she would make him a fruit cake this week last Friday.

Obviously, these grapes were part of the cake’s ingredients.

Holding Chen Sanke’s hand, Chen Yu glanced at the large mascot headgear on the floor. He then asked, “Do you often work part-time during the weekends?”

“Not always.” After putting her headgear back on, Xing Biqi waved her hand and said, “Chen Yu, it’s cold outside. You should go home with your sisters first. I’ll head back to work.”

“When does your s.h.i.+ft end?”

“I s-still have about half an hour to go.”

“Your home’s so far away. Is it safe to go back so late”?

“It’s safe. I’ll take a taxi.”

“Then…” After pondering in silence for a moment, Chen Yu said, “We’ll take our leave first.”

“Mhm!” Xing Biqi nodded repeatedly. “Take care, and see you at school.”

“See you at school.”

After waving at Xing Biqi, Chen Yu turned around and left with his three little sisters.

“…”

While holding onto the stack of flyers, Xing Biqi idly stared at Chen Yu’s back until the latter disappeared into a corner.

“Ugh…”

After a long time, a complicated sigh came out from the cute mascot.

…

“Brother, was that the female cla.s.smate that came to our house last time?”

As soon as the Chen family’s four young masters turned the corner, Chen Yike promptly posed this question.

“Mhm.” Chen Yu nodded without giving any further explanations. He then approached another mobile phone store and asked the mascot employee there, “Friend, can I ask something?”

“What’s the matter, brother?” a male voice came out from the costume.

“How’s the pay for a part-time job here?”

“Oh? You want to do it as well? It just so happens the store’s lacking manpower. I can help recommend you if you’re looking for work.”

“Thanks, but I just want to know how the salary is.”

“You’re a student, right? It’s 100 yuan per day for Sat.u.r.days and Sundays in winter; 150 yuan in summer. You just need to stand for a few hours in the morning and afternoon. You’ll get extra if you take the night s.h.i.+ft as well.”

“Oh, I see. Thanks.”

“No problem.”

After politely thanking the employee, Chen Yu led his three little sisters into a high-end restaurant. They then took a seat at a window table.

“Sir, how many of you will be dining here today?” a waiter asked after approaching the four siblings.

“Give us a pot of hot water. We’ll take a break first before ordering.”

“Okay, please wait a moment.”

Very quickly, the waiter returned with cups and a kettle of water. “If you have any other needs, please call me.”

“Okay.”

Picking up the kettle, Chen Yu poured hot water for his three little sisters. He then stood up and said, “Rest here for now. I have something to deal with outside. We’ll order once I come back.”

“But I’m hungry now,” Chen Erke said, her eyes remaining glued to her new phone.

“Stay hungry for a while longer, then.”

“Big Brother…” Pulling out one of the grapes Xing Biqi previously gave her, Chen Sanke gave the grape a lick and tilted her head. “Are you going to look for that White Rabbit Grape Sister?”

“Stop using these strange names!”

…

Ten minutes later, the mobile phone store’s manager walked out of the building and shouted at Xing Biqi, “Little girl, time to get off work.”

“Huh?” Xing Biqi removed her headgear in confusion. She then pulled out her phone and took a look at the time. “But there are still over 20 minutes left.”

“You can get off work early today,” the manager said as he pulled out 150 yuan’s worth of notes and stuffed them into the girl’s hands. “It’s getting dark. Go home quickly.”

“M-Manager, you gave me too much.”

“It’s a bonus.”

“T-Thank you…” Xing Biqi accepted the notes in a daze.

“All hail the manager! You’re the best!” The other part-time mascot employee also removed his headgear, revealing the head of a young man. The youth then looked at Xing Biqi and said, “Little Qi, let’s go. I’ll treat you to Malatang.”

“No, I’m going home.”

The girl shook her head and began taking off her thick costume.”

“I’ll send you home, then.”

Just as the youth was about to take off his costume as well, the manager stopped him and questioned, “What are you doing?”

“Getting off work?”

“Since when did I say you get to go?” the manager demanded with a stern look.

“D-Didn’t you say that we’re getting off work early today…”

“I was talking about her! Not you! Put it back on!”

The youth: “…”

After removing her costume, Xing Biqi pulled out two heat pads from her pocket and stuck them to her cotton socks’ soles. She then changed into her shoes, and excitedly walked to the fruit store next door with the 150 yuan in her hand.

“Auntie, I want this.” After entering the store, the girl picked up a box of lychees without hesitation and returned to the counter. “How much is it?”

After the female clerk scanned the barcode on the box, she stuck a label a ‘Sold’ label on the box and said, “One hundred and ten.”

After paying the money, Xing Biqi carefully stored the box inside her down jacket and walked out of the store in satisfaction. Simultaneously, she started mentally simulating the cake making process she would go through after returning home.

“Hey!”

Just as the girl was about to walk to the nearby bus stop, a familiar voice entered her ears.

“Chen Yu?”

Even before turning her head, she had already recognized the owner of the voice.

“Where are you going?”

“I-I’m going home.” Stunning, Xing Biqi asked, “Why are you still here?”

“Waiting for you for dinner.”

“Dinner?”

“Yes.” Chen Yu nodded. He then grabbed the girl’s hand in a “domineering” manner and dragged her to the restaurant, “I’ll be feeding you from now on.”

The girl: “!!!”

…

Time pa.s.sed by quickly amidst the falling winter snowflakes.

A week had gone by in the blink of an eye.

Sat.u.r.day, 8:55 AM, Pacific Ocean’s equator:

Inside the mist-shrouded Super Floating Castle, Chen Yu sat on a boat in the Black Lake as he quietly waited for the arrival of nine o’clock.

“Mr. Chen!”

Four minutes later, Little Peach came running over and jumped onto the boat. “The island-engineering s.h.i.+p has arrived. It’s just below the castle.”

“That’s not important right now.” Pulling out his mask, Chen Yu hesitantly asked, “I want to know whether your ability to collect information on the internet is reliable.”

“I am absolutely reliable!” Little Peach declared while patting her chest vigorously. “Although I’ve only studied for a week, my foundation in programming is solid. The same goes for my hacking skills.”

“…I’ll trust you, then. Just don’t delay my plans.”

Raising his wrist, Chen Yu checked the time. He then put on his mask and said, “It’s nine o’clock. We’re starting the livestream.

“Okay!”

Little Peach hurriedly conceded the camera’s central position to Chen Yu and put on her mask as well.

“Start the livestream!”
