Chapter 440: 414 What Are You Doing (Thank you, League Master Suzume for the reward, +2 updates)
Xiao Qian looked at the carrot she was given, then looked at the juicer still working, pushed her glasses, “I’ll take care of it. I’ll just unplug it and wait for you to come back to continue.”
She would absolutely not expose her true nature as a kitchen idiot and domestic appliance killer.
“No, Qiuqiu said that if the Love Magic Water stops, it won’t be useful. Remember to chant when you add the carrot, ‘Shi Yu and Qiao Zhen, everlasting love,’ chant it three times!”
After shouting, Shi Yu ran out. Her Brother Qiao Zhen was coming over with Yu Minglang today to pick up the troops. After drinking the Love Magic Water, they could hold hands today. Qiuqiu had promised her this.
“People say I’m a charlatan, but Qiuqiu is even better at fooling people. What kind of Love Magic Water is this? Isn’t it just a juice mixed with carrots, cucumbers, lemons, and some other stuff?” Xiao Qian complained. These things really work well for fooling young girls.
The machine was bought from abroad, and Xiao Qian had never used it before. She watched it stop working, assuming everything was ready. Following Shi Yu’s instructions, she stuffed the carrot in.
For some reason, there was no reaction when she pushed the carrot in. Xiao Qian saw a chopstick nearby used for stirring. So, she poked the carrot from the top of the machine – plunging the toilet was based on this same principle, and using it for juicers was also helpful. She didn’t forget Shi Yu’s instructions and began chanting the “spell”.
Although Xiao Qian felt that chanting this thing would be useless, she still had to keep her promise to her friend.
Xiao Qian poked the carrot with the chopsticks while chanting.
“Shi Yu and Qiao Zhen, everlasting love, Shi Yu and Qiao Zhen, everlasti—huh? It won’t go down?”
Xiao Qian saw that the carrot seemed to be stuck, so she gave it a forceful poke!
The juicer, which had been tormented by Xiao Qian, made a cracking noise.
Xiao Qian tried to recall.
In her past life, she had seen nannies use juicers and some food processors. If something wouldn’t go down, they would poke it with an object. It seemed she hadn’t done anything wrong—ah!
The juicer let out an angry roar, and Xiao Qian felt something strange in her hand. Then, she attempted to pull out the chopsticks but found that they were stuck!
Damn it! The blade had trapped the chopsticks, no wonder it was making such a strange noise!
At this very moment, the juicer, which had been abused to the extreme, let out one last roar. Xiao Qian witnessed a scene she would never forget.
Shi Yu returned with her mail, humming the tune “Everlasting Friendship”.
It was great to have sisters. They could not only share the joys and hardships together but also enjoy the sweet little love juice together—everlasting friendship.
Shi Yu’s eyes widened as soon as she pushed the door open.
She quietly took a step back, closed the door, and looked at the room number, 4444. Yes, this was their Seven Degrees of Mind dormitory camp—Shi Touyu named it Seven Degrees of Mind because she thought “dead” sounded bad, and despite Boss Qian’s opposition, she changed it.
Psychologists weren’t that just soul-serving sanitary napkins? Two future psychologists were in this room.
However, when Shi Touyu looked at the scene in the room, she felt her heart bleed too.
“Boss Qian… What have you done…”
A whole wall!
All of it!
Postmodern carrot and vegetable juice murals!
It had an uncanny déjà vu postmodern aesthetic!
Xiao Qian calmly wiped the fruit and vegetable juice off her face, “The machine you bought isn’t very durable. Um, that’s it.”
“Ahhhh! What are we going to do with a mess like this! We’re not friends anymore, we’re done!”
Shi Tou was on the verge of collapsing.
“I’ll buy you a new one.” Xiao Qian said guiltily. She didn’t do anything, but why did the machine go wild like this?
Boss Qian had seen the image of the juice overflowing and spraying out deeply.
Little Qiang was right; she shouldn’t be cooking. Now even making juice wasn’t possible.
“It’s not about compensation… Boss Qian, what do we do! If the dormitory manager sees this, we’re dead!”
Boss Qian also wanted to know what to do…
“I think everything the Constellation Guide says is right,” Boss Qian looked at the little wet book Shi Touyu carried and made a mental note.
Poor Little Qiang…
Yu Minglang drove the car, wearing a formal suit, while Qiao Zhen sat in the back, chatting with him.
“Young Boss, the HR candidates we interviewed today are pretty good. I hope they can successfully pass tomorrow’s assessment.”
Yu Minglang came over this time not only to see Xiao Mei but also to listen to the headhunter’s advice and check out the talent he was looking for.
“Indeed, they’re not bad. But I feel like the last one I was impressed with was strange in a way I can’t put my finger on.”
“Wang Yafei?”
“Yeah, even though his resume is great and I have no problem talking to him, there’s something wrong.” Yu Minglang’s sixth sense was always accurate.
“What do you plan to do? He’s the best HR I’ve ever seen, other than you and me. It would be a shame to miss out.”
“We’ll see how it goes tomorrow. If I’m just looking at his resume, I have no reason to deny him, but it’s just intuition.”
There were quite a few people in the Yu Clan appointed by other shareholders. Yu Minglang needed to gradually replace the original staff and add fresh blood that he deemed suitable in order to hold the company firmly in his grasp.
For the first few months, his brothers had been helping him. Many of them were temporarily helping and would be going back. So, if he wanted to develop the company in the long term, he had to quickly add his own people.
This time Yu Minglang came to find a shrewd HR person, to gauge their psychological quality and do some preliminary investigation.
He would also get to see Xiao Mei.
His lovely Xiao Mei, they would soon be together in the evening maple forest. How much happiness was that?
Qiao Zhen was in good spirits as well.
“I’ve arranged to take Xiao Yu out for a western meal and then watch a movie!” Qiao Zhen was looking forward to seeing Xiao Yu very much. Although he didn’t know why, it seemed that since Xiao Yu came back from the mountainous area, her personality changed, and so did he. Everything has been developing in a positive direction, life has been particularly bright, full of positive energy.
As the car steadily moved towards Xiao Qian’s school, Yu Minglang received a call from her before they arrived.
“Little Qiang, how much longer until you get here?”
“We’ll be there soon.”
Yu Minglang felt refreshed when he heard her voice.
“Go and buy something.” Her voice was very stable.
Something? Yu Minglang hesitated but immediately showed a knowing smile.
“I’ve already bought it.”
A super-thin little box was hidden in the storage compartment of his car. Yu Minglang wouldn’t put this kind of thing in his suit, wouldn’t that be embarrassing if someone found out?
But it had already been purchased. Would Xiao Mei like the vanilla flavor?
