Zhou Yi's eyes sparkled with amusent upon hearing the system's announcent.
A woman like Jing Wen needed nothing more than care and attention.
He knew he had taken the right step.
However, he also realized that in Jing Wen's eyes, he was still just a younger brother, and she hadn't yet begun to see him in any other light.
Unless he managed to change her perspective, Jing Wen would at most develop a stronger fondness for him or view him as family.
Only when she saw him as a man would she start to feel romantic attraction toward him, and then the accumulation of her affection points would accelerate.
"Host, where do you plan to allocate the attribute points?"
"Not in a hurry yet."
Zhou Yi finished washing all the dishes in the shop for Jing Wen. Standing at the kitchen door, she waved at him. "Xiao Yi, co here."
Zhou Yi wiped his hands clean and walked over. The woman pulled out a stack of bills and placed them in his hand. "This is your salary for this month."
Zhou Yi lowered his head shyly, pretending to be flustered. "But Sister Wen, it's not payday yet. Isn't it supposed to be on the 15th of next month?"
Jing Wen gazed at him softly with her beautiful eyes. "It's just the three of us in the shop. It doesn't matter which day we pay. I'm afraid I'll be too busy next month and forget. You'll be at school, and I can't just walk in. What will you do for als then?"
In truth, Jing Wen knew Zhou Yi might run out of living expenses at the beginning of the month, so she gave him his salary early.
Zhou Yi didn't refuse further. He took the money and thanked her. "Thank you, Sister Wen. Can I go out for a few minutes? I'll be back soon."
"Go ahead. The custors haven't arrived yet. Just be back by 6."
Jing Wen wasn't a picky boss and had no intention of micromanaging Zhou Yi. It was rare for him to ask to go out, so of course, she wouldn't stop him.
While Jing Wen busied herself in the shop, Zhou Yi headed straight to the pharmacy.
He found hand cream on the shelf, bought the most expensive one, paid for it, and then rushed to a clothing store to buy a dress and a pair of shoes for Jing Wen. After that, he went to the supermarket and purchased a large dishwasher.
All in all, he spent several thousand, almost depleting the money the system had rewarded him, leaving only enough for next month's living expenses.
077: "Host, are you really going to spend this much? Don't you want to buy sothing to improve your own image first?"
Zhou Yi: "To Jing Wen, it doesn't matter what I look like. She won't judge . So, improving my appearance now is pointless."
"I'll earn this money back eventually. Why not treat her well first? It's both to repay her and to move her. Once her affection points increase, this money will co back easily."
To Zhou Yi, this was an investnt.
Panting heavily, Zhou Yi lugged the dishwasher into the kitchen. Jing Wen, seeing him struggling with a large box, hurried over to help.
"What's this, Xiao Yi? Why is it so heavy?" she asked, grabbing a few tissues to wipe the sweat from his face.
Zhou Yi glanced at Lao Hai, who was still prepping ingredients, and pulled Jing Wen to the corner of the small staircase outside the kitchen.
He handed her a large bag. "Sister Wen, next month is your birthday, and I'll be at school. If I end up with a full schedule, I might not have ti to buy you a gift. So, here's your birthday present."
Jing Wen was stunned. She hadn't expected Zhou Yi to rember her birthday.
