“Time to get to work!”
After silently vowing to himself, Shui Miao suddenly felt energized and热血沸腾 (blood boiling with enthusiasm). He slapped the table, rubbed his hands together, and with an excited mood, stood up and left the maintenance room. He planned to go to the employment agency to find some repairmen to replace Guo Ming and Guo Liang.
Now the hotel was operating normally, except the maintenance department had become vacant.
“Manager, where are you going?”
Seeing Shui Miao passing through the lobby, Sister Tang hurriedly came forward with a gentle tone. She had changed into a black and white business suit, exuding the demeanor of an urban white-collar worker.
Shui Miao nodded at Sister Tang, glanced at the time, and with a hint of concern, asked, “Sister Tang, it’s already time to go home. Why haven’t you gone to rest yet? I’m going to check out the employment agency to hire some maintenance workers. Otherwise, if something happens at the hotel, we won’t be able to fix it in time.”
“I’m a new supervisor, so I need to work harder! Besides, I have nothing to do at home anyway.” Sister Tang clenched her fist, watching Shui Miao’s somewhat urgent expression, and giggled, “Manager, you’re working hard too! How about I go with you to the employment agency? Hehe, having a beautiful companion will highlight your brilliance as a manager!”
Sister Tang was playful yet adorable, with a beautiful appearance and an even more dedicated and serious heart underneath.
“It’s better for me to handle the recruitment.”
Suddenly, a woman wearing jeans and a white shirt walked out from the front desk. This woman was none other than Yin Yangyang, who had previously appeared disheveled and spoke with a strange foreign accent.
Yin Yangyang had already changed clothes and was waiting here. Upon hearing Sister Tang’s words, she could no longer contain herself and stepped forward.
“What are you going to do?” Sister Tang immediately became unhappy. She had finally found an opportunity to be alone with Shui Miao, but this shameless woman had to come out and ruin it, instantly cooling her previously pleasant mood. Her tone of voice was no longer as gentle as before.
Yin Yangyang ignored Sister Tang and directly approached Shui Miao, speaking in her uniquely sweet voice, “I know the presidents of various talent markets in Zhonghai City and the principals of various technical schools. Employment agencies are too low-class, with no available talents there. The people I introduce are basically technician engineers, each one worth at least ten from the employment agencies. So if I go, I can definitely help you achieve twice the result with half the effort.”
“What’s the use of engineers? Do you need an engineer to change a light bulb? Do you need an engineer to replace a fuse, turn on a speaker, or adjust the lights? A regular maintenance worker costs at most 3,000 yuan a month, while an engineer would cost at least 8,000 or 9,000 yuan. Besides, our hotel doesn’t need anything right now, and there’s no need to modify the circuits. Are you going to hire an engineer to sit in the office and do nothing?”
Sister Tang was so angry at Yin Yangyang’s arrogant attitude that her body was slightly trembling. This woman actually had the audacity to be so shameless in front of her, and she no longer cared about saving face, directly shouting fiercely, leaving Yin Yangyang momentarily stunned.
The battle between these two women was more thrilling than a fight between men. Shui Miao didn’t expect Sister Tang to be so fierce when she got angry. He nodded in agreement and stepped in as a mediator, saying, “Sister Tang has considered everything comprehensively and her points are very reasonable.”
Hearing this, Yin Yangyang’s face turned red with embarrassment and she immediately counterattacked Sister Tang, her voice even louder than Sister Tang’s, “What do you know? If the elevator breaks down, are you going to let a small maintenance worker fix it? Can they even fix it? A little waitress who knows nothing is just chirping here…”
“Damn it! What’s wrong with being a waitress? You used to be a prostitute in a nightclub!”
Sister Tang hated it most when others looked down on her job as a waitress. Mentioning this made her furious.
“Go to hell! You dare to call me a prostitute!”
Yin Yangyang seemed to have her tail stepped on and immediately lunged forward to scratch Sister Tang’s face. However, Sister Tang jumped up and slapped Yin Yangyang’s face repeatedly, sending her crashing to the ground. Then she rushed forward and kicked her more than ten times!
Yin Yangyang was completely unable to fight back!
Sister Tang spent all day working in the restaurant, and her physical fitness was far superior to Yin Yangyang, who sat in the office all day.
Seeing this, Shui Miao quickly pulled Sister Tang away. However, Yin Yangyang took the opportunity to crawl up and counterattack. Seeing this, Sister Tang immediately lifted her skirt, kicked high, and hit Yin Yangyang’s jaw. Yin Yangyang was kicked to the ground, blood flowing from her mouth…
“Ahh, blood… my blood…” Yin Yangyang screamed like a ghost wailing.
“Fight with me? I’ve practiced mixed martial arts!”
Sister Tang wiped her nose, looking like a tough girl exuding an overwhelming dominance.
However, watching from the side, Shui Miao almost started nosebleeding. At the moment Sister Tang lifted her skirt, she revealed her lace underwear and her white, jade-like, round thighs… Fortunately, it was the time when the hotel had closed for the day. Otherwise, if a crowd gathered and the news of female employees fighting inside the hotel spread, it would surely become a big joke for the citizens to talk about during their tea breaks.
“Come on, let’s go to the employment agency.”
Ignoring Yin Yangyang’s pig-like screams, Sister Tang grabbed Shui Miao’s hand and directly left the hall, heading to the roadside to hail a taxi.
“Sister Tang, you were really amazing! That jaw-shattering kick was simply earth-shaking and heaven-moving!” Since there were no taxis in sight, Shui Miao, seeing Sister Tang gradually returning to her usual self, gave her a thumbs-up and started joking.
“You still have the nerve to laugh at me!” Unexpectedly, Sister Tang suddenly turned around, pinched Shui Miao’s arm, “Stinky Shui, it’s all because of you that I exposed myself. Now that you’ve seen my body, tell me how you’re going to make it up to me?…”
As she spoke, Sister Tang suddenly felt a strange sensation in her body. Her pretty face immediately turned red like a red apple, her shy demeanor capable of charming anyone.
Shui Miao stared with his eyes wide, secretly thinking, “Truly a beauty beyond compare.” But recalling Sister Tang’s appearance just now, he immediately shivered, his face showing an innocent expression as he hurriedly waved his hands in denial, “Sister Tang, I swear I didn’t see anything at all!”
“You saw it and won’t admit it. Are you even a man!” Sister Tang stomped her foot, clearly angry, and turned around, refusing to acknowledge Shui Miao anymore.
Women’s emotions are unpredictable, and Shui Miao was at a loss for words.
After a while, seeing Shui Miao standing there dumbfounded, Sister Tang huffed, lowered her head, and muttered fiercely, “If I can’t get married, don’t think you can escape.”
“…”
What did that mean? Was it a confession?
“Ah! No good, the little witch is chasing over here…”
Shui Miao happened to look back and noticed that Yin Yangyang had somehow obtained a brick and was charging towards them with it raised high. He immediately pulled Sister Tang and ran. However, they had only run a hundred meters when Yin Yangyang became too tired to continue and sat on the ground…
“You two don’t run away! Sister Tang, I’m not done with you yet!” Yin Yangyang shouted loudly.
Seeing this, Shui Miao immediately felt a headache and quickly hailed a taxi. The two immediately got in and hurriedly drove away.
“Master, please go to the Zhabei Employment Agency,” Shui Miao greeted the driver.
“Sister Tang, this is going to be a problem. What if she acts like this again this afternoon when we go to work? What should I do then?” Sister Tang thought about it later and felt a bit regretful for being too harsh just now. She felt relieved while beating her, but now the trouble had come.
Shui Miao calmly smiled, “No problem. This afternoon I’ll fire her, along with Feng An’an from the finance department.”
“You’re just bragging. You’re only a catering manager. They have higher positions than you. How can you fire them?”
Sister Tang looked at Shui Miao with disdain, clearly not believing him.
“Am I bragging?” Shui Miao touched his chin, widened his eyes, looked at Sister Tang again, and showed a charming smile, “How about we make a bet?”
“What kind of bet?” Sister Tang adjusted her skirt, thinking about that high kick just now, and how Shui Miao had seen everything. Now sitting so close to him, she felt her heart racing like a little deer was hitting it.
Shui Miao looked at the road ahead and lowered his voice, “If I can replace both of them, you’ll owe me a favor, and you’ll have to do whatever I ask you to do in the future. If I can’t replace them, I’ll give up my position as the catering manager for you. What do you think? This bet gives you a very high chance of winning.”
Shui Miao was just casually saying this, but to others, it sounded indecent and could easily lead to misunderstandings.
The driver chuckled and shook his head.
But Sister Tang suddenly extended her little finger, “Deal, let’s pinky swear.”
“Come on, when have I ever not kept my word? We don’t need a pinky swear…”
“No way, I want to pinky swear!”
“I won’t do it…”
“You have to do it, I don’t believe you…”
Shui Miao and Sister Tang started playfully arguing. Their sweet and affectionate behavior made the driver envious. Finally, the driver couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh! You young people are really happy! Seeing you two reminds me of my first love when I was young. For the sake of this beautiful memory, I’ve decided to take you for free this time.”
“Auntie, I’m not his girlfriend, please don’t misunderstand.”
Although Sister Tang said this with her mouth, her face was already half-red.
Shui Miao didn’t bother to look at Sister Tang and quickly explained, “Auntie, we’re really not a couple. We’re just colleagues.”
“Hehe, I can tell. You don’t have to be shy,” the driver, in a good mood, joked, “If you really don’t admit it, I’ll change my mind and charge you money.”
“Haha, Auntie, I admit it. I’m from Jiangxi. You can give me a free ride back home!” Sister Tang, being one of the most talkative in the catering department, joked around and was definitely not going to lose to an old man.
There are two types of excellent restaurant servers: one is someone who can do all the work well without any mistakes, and the other is someone who can not only do all the work well but also go the extra mile, making the customers happy and willing to give generous tips. Sister Tang was the second type. She was smart and quick-witted, just a bit too ambitious. Without this flaw, she would have been perfect.
“Hahaha! Little girl, you’re really clever and mischievous!”
The driver let out a cheerful laugh.
Shui Miao also laughed, but he always felt that there was no possibility between him and Sister Tang. They could play around, but being boyfriend and girlfriend probably wouldn’t be appropriate.
“Ring ring ring…”
Suddenly, a mobile phone rang. Shui Miao picked up his phone and saw it was a call from Guo Ming.
Oh no! How could I forget about Guo Ming!
Shui Miao quickly pressed the answer button and heard Guo Ming urgently shouting, “Manager, something’s wrong! Our money has been stolen!”
“…”
Shui Miao was stunned. What was going on? Was Guo Ming trying to pull a trick?
Shui Miao immediately hung up the phone and sent a message to Chen Bing. He chose to send a message because he didn’t want Sister Tang to hear anything she shouldn’t.
Soon, Chen Bing replied with a message saying that Guo Ming hadn’t left the small restaurant at all. The two brothers had been packing up in the small restaurant, preparing to run away.
After reading the message, Shui Miao coldly smiled and called Xiao Liu, “Xiao Liu, Guo Ming and Guo Liang are planning to run away with the hotel’s money. You need to take some people and trap the Guo brothers in the small restaurant immediately. I’ll be there soon.”
