Chapter 66 - 66: 63 Sisi Looking for Work, Ye Lei is Furious

Because seeing her would inevitably remind him of his pitiful past!

Liu Sisi seemed completely unaware, waving her hand dismissively: “No need to thank me! It was nothing more than a helping hand! I’ve already forgotten all about it. By the way, are you hiring a waiter in this shop?”

A bright sparkle twinkled in her eyes, a sparkle so familiar to him that he instinctively took a step back.

Nan Tianzong retreated half a step, casually asking as if joking: “…Why are you suddenly asking this? Are you planning to apply for the job?”

“Sir Nan is indeed beyond compare, with broad knowledge. I am indeed thinking about applying for the job of a waiter. What do you think, Sir Nan?”

Nan Tianzong was dumbfounded, frozen in place, unable to speak for quite a while.

At that moment, he wished he could slap himself, regretting that he had brought up the topic!

This had led him to an embarrassing situation, and he deserved it!

Di Yelei had been outside waiting for a long time. From his standing position, he could only see the back of Liu Sisi. The scorching sun overhead was blinding, and it seemed like the young woman inside wasn’t ending the conversation anytime soon. Unable to restrain himself, he stepped into the shop.

Inside, Liu Sisi, with her back to him, was confronting a young scholar.

“This… may not be so good.” The scholar hesitated.

“What’s not good about it?”

Although he couldn’t see Sisi’s expression at that moment, Di Yelei could easily tell from her voice that she was pleased.

“This…There’s never been such a precedent.”

“What precedent?”

“There’s never been a precedent for a woman doing this.”

“I am a married young woman. Who says a young wife can’t do the cleaning work?”

In the small town, there were many young wives who, in order to make ends meet, came out and started small businesses.

“But…”

“Actually I can also dress as a man. I will absolutely not cause any trouble for you, Young Master Nan. What do you think? Can you give me a definitive answer?”

Hearing the deep disappointment in Sisi’s words, and how she had resorted to begging, Di Yelei quickly stepped forward and stood by Liu Sisi.

“Sisi, what’s wrong? What happened?”

As Di Yelei, with his tall figure, stood by Liu Sisi and spoke, he raised his head and looked deeply at Nan Tianzong across from him.

The man across from him was dressed like an elegant scholar, without the strength to even truss a chicken, and had a sickly pale face. This man, who was even more feminine than a woman, dared to reject Sisi’s request? What insolence!

At their first meeting, Di Yelei’s masculine instincts kicked in and he felt an excessive aversion for the pretty boy in front of him!

Naturally, Nan Tianzong noticed Di Yelei, who had purposefully strided in from outside.

With the man standing protectively next to Liu Sisi and glaring provocatively at Nan Tianzong, a tremendous pressure hit him head-on.

Nan Tianzong felt an unjustified irritation in his heart, yearning to separate the two of them.

Years of education curved his lips in a casual smile, careless but impossible to ignore. This casual attitude created a barrier between him and others.

Instinctively, he inclined his head towards Di Yelei in greeting. However, a glint of sharpness flashed in his eyes.

But this caused an inexplicable tightening in Di Yelei’s heart.

A strong sense of crisis rushed towards him, as if he were not facing a person at all!

But a ferocious beast, causing the hair all over his body to stand on end, and his muscles naturally tightened.

Liu Sisi didn’t notice the underlying struggle between the two and turned her head to whisper, “Huh, how did you get in? Didn’t I tell you to wait outside? Don’t worry, I’ll be ready in a little while.”

She then turned her attention back to Nan Tianzong, pleading softly, “Mr. Nan, what do you think about this? Please, I really love this job. Trust me, I won’t be any trouble!”

“What job? Sisi, what are you talking about?”

Not until this moment did Di Yelei realize that their conversation was off, his brow furrowing instinctively.

“Ah? No… it’s nothing, his shop is hiring for a cleaning job, I just came to try my luck …”

Liu Sisi instinctually avoided Di Yelei’s gaze.

Suddenly remembering that she had forgotten to discuss it with him, she wondered whether he would agree to her getting a job.

Di Yelei’s brow furrowed tightly: “Cleaning? How much silver can that make, I don’t agree …”

“I agree, remember to come and start work early on the next Market Day.”

Before Di Yelei could finish speaking, Nan Tianzong made the final decision on the matter.

Even he didn’t understand. It was clear that he had made up his mind early on to refuse her, yet now he had unexpectedly changed his mind. Even he found it unexpected.

People who were familiar with him, knew that he was a man of principles. Yet now, he had abandoned his usual behavior because of a woman he had only met twice. He found this inconceivable!

In an instant, Liu Sisi’s eyes twinkled like little stars, nearly jumping for joy!

“Are you serious? You really agreed? That’s great! Rest assured, on the next Market Day, I’ll definitely come in on time for work!”

“Good, just remember it.”

Nan Tianzong was still laughing elegantly.

After her excitement, Liu Sisi didn’t forget the main purpose of her visit. After asking Nan Tianzong to help her choose a set of the four treasures of the study, she planned to take them back for Di Xuan.

Under the smiling gaze of the other party, Di Yelei left the shop with a stiff face and went home with Liu Sisi.

As soon as they got home, they received a warm welcome from YingEr and the others. Even Ah-Huang and Ah-Hua’s frolicking couldn’t melt Di Yelei’s darkened face.

“Dad, mom! You’re back!”

YingEr came running excitedly, and the two strings of candied hawthorns in Liu Sisi’s hand instantly attracted all her attention.

“Mom! Are these candied hawthorns for me?”

Liu Sisi looked up at Zhang Yun, who was standing next to Di Xuan, and regretted that she had forgotten to buy candied hawthorns for Zhang Yun!

An embarrassing color flashed across Liu Sisi’s face.

She hastily bent down, handed the two strings of candied hawthorns to YingEr and said, “YingEr, go and give one string to big brother Zhang Yun. Remember to thank him for looking after you. Our YingEr is the most obedient and sensible, right?”

YingEr happily took the candied hawthorns and nodded her head forcefully, “Okay, mom! Big brother Zhang Yun played with YingEr all morning today. He’s been so nice to YingEr! Big brother Zhang Yun can have one string of candied hawthorns and YingEr will have the other. Big brother Zhang Yun! Big brother Zhang Yun…”

While speaking, YingEr hurriedly ran over with the candied hawthorn and handed it to Zhang Yun, smiling happily!

Zhang Yun accepted it awkwardly, showing his happiness.

Next to them, a shadow crossed over Di Xuan’s eyes, a feeling of being left out surged up.
