Yuei Vu found out that this might not have anything to do with what he did, or what he said.
Anyway, as long as he kept standing there, the maidâs favorability seems to increase naturallyâŠ
No way, being too handsome would also cause distress.
Itâs just that the lady maid concealed it very well, and he couldnât see any signs of excitement on her face, which made Yuei Vu even think that the function of the corresponding module of the system was malfunctioning.
However, not long after meeting this maid, Yuei Vu found out that he was really thinking too much at this moment. Because the maid may have no intention of concealing it from the beginning to the end, she simply had a poker faceâŠ
After all the questions were asked, the lady maid closed the notebook in a hurry.
âThatâs all I want to ask,â she said.
Thatâs it?
Yuei Vu didnât mean rude, but he thought these questions are a bit strange as interview questions â how did you think these things have anything to do with the position he was applying for?
Yuei Vu asked, âThen⊠have I been accepted?â
âI donât know.â The maid shook her head.
âWhat?â
âBecause Iâm not the store manager,â Her tone was almost natural, âIâm still in high school, I just came here to help during the holidays.â
Yuei Vu: ââŠâ
What the hell!
Then you were playing with me just now?
Calm down, I must keep smiling at times like this.
âOh, thatâs right.â Yuei Vu asked, âIs the store manager there?â
The girl shook her head like a rattle.
âHeâs out of town.â She said, âBut I can give you a call and ask for instructions.â
ââŠThen please help me.â
The girl turned around and went to the warehouse at the back. Yuei Vu leaned against the glass counter and began to glance aimlessly among the card packs in the store.
Before the rebirth, the cards in these card shops were just decorations for players, just like a background. The cards here could only be used by NPCs, and players couldnât use them even if they buy them back.
But now itâs different for Yuei Vu. As an NPC, he could use these cards. He has already made up his mind to come here to open the package when he has money.
Um⊠After I have money.
Since the store manager was away, Yuei Vu didnât have any expectations for this position for the time being. He was already thinking about where to find work next.
But the maid came back soon with good news: âThe store manager said you can stay.â
âAh?â Yuei Vu was taken aback, âHe didnât ask any questions?â
âNo.â The girl said, âHe said to try it out first, and then wait until he came back. He told me t help you get familiar with the work.â
âMy job isâŠâŠâ
âJust be responsible for helping me.â She pointed to the bar next to her, âSometimes there will be customers coming to drink coffee. If there are too many people, sometimes I canât service all customers by myself⊠You know how to brew coffee, right?â
Yuei Vu nodded: âI understand a little.â
My dad taught me to soak in HawaiiâŠ
âŠâŠOh, this was Yu-Gi-Oh, so Iâm sorry.
âThatâs good.â
The girl told him to follow her and led him through the shelves. Yuei Vu found that there was a red wooden door in the most inconspicuous corner of the store.
âFood and shelter are included here, but the salary may not be too high. There is no salary during the probationary period. You can wait for the boss to come back and talk to him about the formal salary.â
âOkay.â Yuei Vu nodded.
He didnât expect any salary or anything. What he came here for was to include food and shelterâŠ
âŠâŠAll right,
There may also be a discount if you buy a card.
The girl pushed open the wooden door, and behind it was a long staircase leading all the way into the darkness, because of the poor lighting in the compartment, she couldnât see the situation above.
âThe room is up here,â she said. âI live on the third floorâI like to live a little higher. Both rooms on the second floor are empty. You can pick one and Iâll give you the key.â
âOK.â
Yuei Vu walked all the way and suddenly thought of something: âBy the way, I donât know your name yet.â
âChika, Itou Chika.â She didnât look back, âJust call me Chika.â
She took Yuei Vu to the second floor. Yuei Vu picked a room at random and opened the door, only to feel a dull musty stench coming from his face as if he had opened a wine cellar that had been sealed for many years.
The room was not very large, with only one bedroom and a cramped bathroom. The early morning light penetrated through the only small window, and countless dust particles flew recklessly in the light.
Itou Chika took a step back and pinched her tiny nose.
âBecause no one stays here in years, the environment is a bit bad.â
She may really feel that this dormitory is a bit unworthy of this âjuniorâ.
ââŠIf you donât mind, I can help you clean up after the store closes at night.â
Yuei Vu waved his hand: âIt doesnât matter, I can do it myself.â
After a pause, he asked: âCompared to thisâŠIs it really okay for me to just move in so casually? I mean, the store manager has never seen meâŠNo, It should be said that we didnât even get through the phone.â
While talking, the two had already left the room and started going downstairs.
âIt doesnât matter.â Itou Chika said lightly, âAlthough he may make things difficult for you after he comes back, he will not drive you away directly. The store manager is actually a pretty good person, and he must mention any shortcomings. âŠâŠHe had a poisonous mouth but a tofu heart.â
âOh? That means that although his mouth is mean, he actually treats people well?â
âNo.â Chika shook her head and said calmly, âIt means that his mouth is mean, but he is actually thinking about how to eat tofu. (1)â
Yuei Vu: ââŠâ
Donât lie to me. Although I read only a few books, how can this be the meaning of âhaving a poisonous mouth but a tofu heartâ?
""
So it means that the store manager is a⊠um⊠gentleman?
Itâs just that these words were said lightly from the mouth of such a beautiful girl with a poker face⊠It always felt a little strange.
âBy the way, if you want to work, you also have to change into work clothes.â Chika stopped, suddenly remembered something, turned her head, and looked at Yuei Vu.
âThere are a few spares in the warehouse, but I donât know if the size fits your bodyâŠâ
Yuei Vu instantly became alert.
Work clothes? What work clothes?
Could it be that he also changed into a maid outfit?
This was different from what he expected. He just came to eat and drink, but he didnât intend to betray his integrity.
Fortunately, Chika came back with a menâs dress after a while.
Snow white lining, black vest, and bow tie. Putting on this attire, Yuei Vu felt like he looked like a common bartender in movies, except that the part he was in charge of was not wine but coffee.
The lady maid stood in front of him and helped him take pictures of the folds on his clothes. She dexterously tied the bow tie and tidied up his collar.
Then she took two steps back, tilted her head, and looked at it for a while, nodding like an artist facing her masterpiece at last.
ăFavorability +5ă
Yuei Vu was already numb to the string of reminders that popped up above her head from time to timeâŠ
Seemingly satisfied with this junior, Chika nodded and said to herself, âOkay, this can be used.â
Yuei Vu: â?â
Wait a minute, little sister, you can speak clearly.
What do you mean by âcan be usedâ?
TLâs note:
1. âEat tofuâ here is slang for touching girls in private parts.
