Wen Yu gave them a thumbs up and said, “I have high expectations for all of you. You have demonstrated the ability to learn how to run a shop.”
Zhou i looked at Wen Yu with a smug expression and remarked, “Well, of course I have to learn! After all, I invested a lot of money into this venture. Sotis, it still pains when I think about the amount I spent.”
Wen Xing quickly comforted Zhou i and said, “Don’t worry, honey. This is just an early-stage investnt. I have full confidence in our noodle shop! I took a look at the bowls we collected and I noticed that most of them were completely empty, with only a small portion left at the bottom. I’m guessing it’s because so girls are watching their weight and don’t want to overeat.” Zhou i, who was busy in the kitchen for the entire day, felt a sense of relief and joy upon hearing Wen Xing’s words. The actions of the custors were a more convincing proof that they were doing well.
If Zhou i’s culinary skills were successfully recognized by the local community, it would no longer be necessary to keep hiring temporary workers. “Dad, when will you be able to start your new job?”
Wen Xing responded with delight, “I can start on Monday. Xiao He doesn’t have any classes that day, so she can co in to help for an extra day. After the opening event, your mother and Xiao He should be able to manage the shop on their own.”
Wen Nian replied, “Then I’ll help after school in the future.”
Zhou i responded firmly in a serious tone, “Today is Friday and it’s the first day of business, so I’ve made an exception and allowed you both to help out. However, your studies should always be your top priority. I don’t want you to help just because this is the restaurant we opened. If it ans compromising your education, I’d rather close the shop altogether! Once things have stabilized, your father can send food to you both. Nian Nian, co over for dinner tonight after school. I’ll cook ahead of ti so you can eat and then go ho to study.”
Seeing that Zhou i had already decided on a plan, Wen Nian and Wen Yu looked at each other and silently dismissed the idea.
After the family finished cleaning up, it was nearly ten o’clock by the ti they returned ho. Zhou i quickly washed up and went to bed to rest and prepare for the next morning.
The following day, Zhou i woke up just after four o’clock and quietly got ready to go to the market to purchase ingredients for breakfast. Wen Yu was the next to wake up as he had to attend make-up lessons at school. After him, Wen Xing got ready for work, and finally, Wen Nian stretched and got out of bed.
Wen Nian arrived at Xifeng Court promptly at 8:30 and took the elevator with Shen Jun. As the LCD panel displayed the words “10th floor,” Wen Nian recalled the incident from the previous week when she had snuck into the Wei family’s residence.
Throughout the week, Wen Nian had entertained all sorts of possibilities and had speculated that Wei Xiao might have hired soone to kill her parents. Perhaps he had done so because he did not want to be with her and wanted to fra her for the cri. All of these thoughts rushed through Wen Nian’s mind as the elevator doors opened on the tenth floor.
Wen Nian was certain that Wei Feng must have known about the incident. Even if he was not aware of it earlier, he would eventually find out. Wen Nian had witnessed Wei Feng’s authoritative nature.
Wen Nian stood in front of the notification board, staring at it with a frown, and clenched her fists tightly. She gritted her teeth in frustration as she thought about the Wei Family reaching out to her family first to return a favor. Wen Nian speculated that Wei Xiao was too scared to go against Wei Feng’s wishes and had decided to destroy her to protect himself.
For this, they did not hesitate to destroy a family to satisfy their own selfish desires!
The Wei family’s hypocrisy was truly repulsive, but Wen Nian knew she had to focus on improving herself before taking any action. She wasn’t the protagonist of a novel with special abilities or powers, and so she could only rely on her own hard work to rise higher and beco powerful enough to make the Wei family afraid to oppose her.
Ding! The elevator door opened.
Wen Nian also ca to her senses and followed Shen Jun into the Shen residence.
Shen Jun had stayed up late the night before to deal with sothing and had only slept for two hours when he was awakened by Wen Nian’s call. He was extrely sleepy, and his voice was still groggy. “I’ll sleep a little longer. When you’re done, work on the first set of the most challenging papers in each subject.”
Wen Nian put down her bag, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to start working. “No problem, you go back to sleep. I’ll figure out the schedule on my own.”
When Wen Nian returned to the Shen residence, she was already familiar with the place. Three hours later, she had finished cleaning all the areas.
Wen Nian opened the refrigerator to take out a sanwich for lunch, but she noticed that the sandwich had been replaced with a container of fruit and vegetable juice mixed with chicken, duck, and fish.
Wen Nian looked at the fresh ingredients and quietly wondered to herself, “Did he buy these ingredients specifically because I ca?”
The only thing that was ready to eat in the fridge were a few leftover dumplings that she had made the previous week. Wen Nian had no choice but to select so ingredients and cook her own al. In the end, she prepared stir-fried chicken with spicy peppers and egg soup.
It took half an hour to cook the al and ten minutes to finish eating.
After finishing her al, Wen Nian sat in front of the coffee table and began doing her test papers..
