Jiang Nuan arrived at the wellness center, where two boys and two girls were already waiting outside. Upon seeing the stunning Jiang Nuan, whose aura and figure were incredibly captivating, the four were filled with envy. They all stared at her intently.
Jiang Nuan basked in the envious and scorching gazes of the four, her gait becoming even more alluring. She derived immense satisfaction from their looks.
The four: "..." Their eyes, filled with envy and jealousy, became indescribable.
Le Cheng, watching Jiang Nuan's uninhibited stride, stammered, "Boss... Boss, are you sure your head is functioning normally right now?"
Le Cheng, who possessed a cheerful and forthright personality, had a neat short haircut. She was very pretty, but the short haircut didn't quite match her demeanor.
Jiang Nuan felt she would look better with straight hair. She shot Le Cheng a glare, "Can't you see I'm completely indifferent to everyone right now?"
Qiao Xi, with her soft, flowing hair, smiled at Jiang Nuan and said, "Sister, you've arrived. A gentle breeze, and you are here, like morning dew. My eyes can hold nothing else."
Jiang Nuan's steps faltered. She looked at Qiao Xi in alarm, "Qiao Xi, did you take your medicine before leaving home?"
Qiao Xi nodded vigorously, "I did. Niuhuang Jiedu Pian. It was bitter and astringent, leaving my mouth all yellow."
Jiang Nuan: "..."
Nearby, the handsome Mo Zhe looked at Qiao Xi as if he had eaten something foul, "My heart is a fragile item. If it breaks, can you afford to compensate me? Don't scare me with your words; I don't have a mother."
The young heartthrob Bai Zhou on the other side looked at Qiao Xi with disgust, "I feel like you didn't eat medicine, but rather feces."
Jiang Nuan looked at the four, her expression one of sheer horror. Had she found the wrong people? Not a single one of them seemed normal. Customers would be scared away as soon as they entered. Was it really alright to have people with mental issues working here?
"Boss, what do we need to do?" Mo Zhe asked Jiang Nuan with great curiosity.
Jiang Nuan replied, "Just... carry plates and wash dishes."
The four: "..."
They turned around in unison.
"Sorry, we're in the wrong place. Sorry to have bothered you."
Jiang Nuan watched the four ungrateful handsome men and women, thinking, You're in the wrong place, but can you think clearly before leaving?
"Hold it," Jiang Nuan walked over.
Mo Zhe turned to face Jiang Nuan, "Boss, I don't know how. When steaming buns and dumplings, do the ones in the upper steamer cook first or the ones in the lower steamer? I can't tell."
Jiang Nuan looked at him as if he were an idiot, "Buns and dumplings would both be ashamed of you."
Bai Zhou added, "Boss, spiciness is a sensation of pain, not taste. I only figured this out recently."
Jiang Nuan nodded, "Your excuses are always so peculiar."
Qiao Xi chuckled, "Boss, nitrous oxide (NāO), also known as laughing gas. I can't laugh. I'm afraid I'll scare the guests away."
Jiang Nuan then looked at Le Cheng. Le Cheng smiled awkwardly, "Boss, about one-seventh of the world's population dislikes the taste of cilantro. I don't eat it either."
Jiang Nuan waved her hand dismissively towards them.
"Go on, go on. I won't force you."
Jiang Nuan turned and walked towards the door to open it. The four's eyes widened. This was a prime location, worth every penny. How could their boss... personally open the door here?
Qiao Xi exclaimed, "Holy crap, Boss, did you open the wrong door?"
Jiang Nuan ignored her and walked in after opening the door. All her hard-earned savings over the years were invested here.
Just as she stepped over the threshold, the sound of synchronized footsteps approached from behind. Jiang Nuan turned in confusion, seeing the four handsome men and women looking at her with the most adoring eyes they could muster.
Jiang Nuan looked at the four and couldn't help but curve her lips, "Weren't you leaving?"
Qiao Xi declared, "Sister, I can carry plates."
Jiang Nuan looked at Le Cheng again.
"Boss, I can serve guests. They will definitely like my sweet smile."
Jiang Nuan looked at Mo Zhe.
"Sister, I can distinguish between buns and dumplings."
Jiang Nuan looked at Le Cheng again.
Le Cheng chimed in, "...Sister, I have a beautiful smile. Guests will definitely like my sweet smile."
Jiang Nuan then looked at Bai Zhou.
"Boss, I'm handsome. I can attract many young ladies."
Jiang Nuan stated, "Your sister is someone who relies on her own strength."
Qiao Xi had already surveyed the wellness center. It was quite large. With only the four of them, would it be too much work? She turned to look at Jiang Nuan, "Sister, did you hire cleaning staff?"
Jiang Nuan shook her head, "No money for that!"
Qiao Xi: "..." My apologies!
Afterward, Jiang Nuan led the four in cleaning the wellness center, inside and out. Jiang Nuan generously treated them to a grand meal at a renowned restaurant nearby. She told them to return in a few days to prepare for the grand opening, and the four then happily departed.
After closing the door, Jiang Nuan leisurely walked towards the intersection. Just as she was about to hail a taxi, a luxurious car appeared before her. Jiang Nuan found the car somewhat familiar. Ah, right, it was the same car that "Uncle" had driven last time.
As Jiang Nuan was thinking, she saw Mu Jiuchen, dressed in a sharp suit, step out of the car. In the setting sun, the man exuded an elegant and noble aura. His face was exceptionally captivating.
"Uncle."
Every time Mu Jiuchen heard this address, he felt the world turn dark.
"Call me 'Gege'," Mu Jiuchen corrected her, closing his eyes.
"Ah, Uncle, you have such dark circles under your eyes. If Uncle isn't sleeping well, I have a good remedy you can try. It's not expensive!"
Mu Jiuchen: "..." This little girl was here to annoy him. However, his sleep quality was fine. As for the dark circles, they were because of her; he hadn't been able to sleep well recently.
Mu Jiuchen suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her with a cool, thin smile, "No need. My sleep is excellent. You owe me so much money, who knows if you're giving me poison?"
Chen Feng in the driver's seat thought, ...Lord, your path to winning her over has just extended by another hundred thousand li.
"Hmph! Such a petty mind!" Jiang Nuan was furious. Was she the kind of person who would do something like that for a little money?
Jiang Nuan turned and walked away huffily. Mu Jiuchen did not chase after her. He knew that little girl's temper, and it would take a while to placate her. Moreover, he had business here.
Mu Jiuchen turned and found his path blocked by a girl. Jiang Qing had come to see a friend and encountered Jiang Nuan on her way back. She had initially intended to confront Jiang Nuan but then noticed Mu Jiuchen's car parked there.
"Ninth Master, do you like Jiang Nuan?" she asked directly, her face grim. Shen Yao's incident had powerful figures supporting it. Could it be Mu Jiuchen? If it were truly Mu Jiuchen, ten Jiang families wouldn't be enough for him to play with.
Mu Jiuchen gave her a sharp, piercing glance, "You have the right to question my affairs? Scram!" Mu Jiuchen waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.
Jiang Qing was unwilling and shouted, "Ninth Master, Jiang Nuan is already tainted. Back then, my mother drugged her, and the effect was very potent. She couldn't have resisted it on her own. She has already been with other men." Jiang Nuan had ruined the Jiang family, and she wouldn't let Jiang Nuan have an easy time.
Mu Jiuchen's expression suddenly turned terrifying, his gaze as chilling and sinister as he looked at Jiang Qing's ugly face and mouth. That man was Mu Jiuchen himself!
