This ti, Su ng slept very peacefully until she woke up naturally. No one disturbed her.
She yawned as she walked downstairs. When she was halfway down the stairs, she saw the person who was receiving guests on the first floor. She was stunned for a long ti before she ca back to her senses.
Shen Jian was cleaning the cabinets while Guo Xiang was reading the books on the counter.
Su ng frowned as she walked down and asked Shen Jian, “Why haven’t you left yet?”
She had promised to bring Shen Jian back with her first because she saw that he had no place to stay. Before he ca, he had already agreed that he would move out as soon as he found a place.
“Boss, Elder Guo has read my fortune. Although my life is too tough, it doesn’t affect you. Not only does it not affect , but you can also bring good luck.” Shen Jian looked at Su ng with admiration.
Su ng did not believe him. She turned to look at Guo Xiang and asked him with her eyes.
“Sothing happened at Hong Si’s house, so he won’t be coming back anyti soon. Let him stay here. He can help out on behalf of Hong Si. He doesn’t have a place to stay anyway, so he can be considered to be looking for a job,” Guo Xiang said with a smile.
Hearing Guo Xiang speak up for him, Shen Jian nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
“Old man, you just t him. You don’t even know what his character is like. How dare you hire him? Aren’t you afraid of him…”
Before Su ng could finish, Shen Jian began to retort, “I can’t guarantee anything else. My character is very good! Since Elder Guo can give a job and let have a place to live, I will definitely work hard!”
Su ng looked at him for a while. Thinking that this was the old man’s shop and that her old man’s ability to judge people was much better than hers, she did not say anything more.
“Alright then,” Su ng agreed perfunctorily.
“Since Master is awake, let’s eat. Have a taste of my cooking.” After Shen Jian said that, he jogged into the kitchen and brought out the dishes that he had just prepared.
“You can cook?” Su ng picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks. She did not expect that it had all the looks, fragrance, and taste.
“Of course. Back then, in order to earn money, I went to a restaurant to beco an apprentice.” Shen Jian raised his head slightly and looked very proud.
“Oh right, old man, what happened to Brother Hong’s family? He was still fine when I left. Why did he suddenly leave? Is he in such a hurry?” Su ng asked as she ate.
Guo Xiang’s face darkened a little when he heard Su ng’s question. However, he returned to normal in an instant. Su ng and Shen Jian did not notice it.
“He did not explain in detail. However, he did not look good when he left.” Guo Xiang covered his emotions with his al.
Su ng nodded and sighed. “It’s fine if he doesn’t want to talk about it, but old man, help tell him. We’re family, so don’t be polite. If there’s anything you need, just tell . I’ll definitely help if I can.”
She wasn’t being polite, but she said it from the bottom of her heart. When she had just returned, her master had told her that Guo Xiang was the only one left in the family. His wife and disciples had all left. At that ti, he didn’t even want to open a shop anymore, until he t Hong Si.
Hong Si said that he was looking for a job. Guo Xiang saw that he was very good at antiques and knew so feng shui, so he asked him to stay. With Hong Si’s help, he wouldn’t be too tired. Later, because the business in the shop wasn’t very good, Hong Si could manage it by himself, so he let him go out to travel and rest.
As for Hong Si, he found a part-ti university student to help him during the days when there were more people. Guo Xiang didn’t have to worry about the situation in the shop at all.
Hong Si had taken care of her master quite a lot, so Su ng felt that she had an obligation to help him as if Hong Si was family.
Shen Jian joined in the fun. “Master, I’m also your family. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Elder Guo!”
Su ng did not say anything after hearing that, but Guo Xiang smiled faintly.
“Elder Guo, eat more vegetables.” Shen Jian was indeed very perceptive. Seeing that the dish that Guo Xiang had been eating was quite far away from him, he quickly pushed it in front of him.
Shen Jian knew who was in charge of this shop, so he tried his best to please Guo Xiang.
When Su ng saw this, she showed a look of disdain on the surface, but in fact, she felt slightly comforted in her heart.
It could be seen that Guo Xiang liked Shen Jian very much, although it could not be ruled out that it was because Shen Jian was too good at flattery.
“After dinner, when you have nothing to do, let Girl ng take you to buy so daily necessities. I don’t think you have anything.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. I’m used to being casual. I’ll buy it when I earn money in the future,” Shen Jian quickly rejected. At this mont, his sleeves were empty and he did not have any money at all.
He had no choice. Because of his fate, he was not only born to be a bane to others, but he was also a bane to himself. Unlucky things happened one after another.
