Chapter 338 Friends

"Your brother has good taste."

"..."

"I have a pretty good understanding of your situation, Time Traveler Miss..."

"I have a name, it's Ma Youyou." Steel Teeth Girl said.

"Oh, I didn't expect that you're from my clan too, we indeed are destined, then let's give it a try. The salary is the same as for another full-time employee, which is a basic wage of 4000, bonuses dependent on performance, work 5 days and rest 2 days, but you won't be able to pay for social insurances without an ID card."

"Uh-huh, no problem," Ma Youyou nodded.

"Half a month probation period, the wage won't be halved, but if you don't do well, I will have you leave, after all, I run a restaurant, not a Different Dimension refugee center, nor will I give you any special treatment because you are a guest from the Different Dimension."

"That's reasonable."

"Do you have any other questions?"

"Yes, can I live with you and Uncle Wang?"

"What?"

"I don't have a place to live right now, can I temporarily stay at your place?" Ma Youyou asked.

"You, a girl, want to live with us two men? And what did you just call Old Wang? Uncle Wang, do you know Old Wang, what is your relationship with him?"

"Uh..."

Ma Youyou realized that she had slipped up, her brain frantically spinning, thinking of ways to backtrack.

Especially as she noticed Ma Lu's look growing more suspicious, Ma Youyou's heart pounded furiously, just as she was about to buckle under the pressure, she saw Ma Lu suddenly slap his thigh. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire

"I got it, has our conversation already happened once before?"

"Ah?"

"No more feigning ignorance, hehe, you are that Time Traveler, aren't you? Stepping ahead, then coming back to guarantee a job offer would definitely increase your success rate, no wonder you knew my age, hmm, Yan Wu, Wandering Sorcerer, and perhaps you got everything about Old Wang from me too... Too cunning."

Ma Lu recognized the voice, "I did reply to your messages."

To prove his point, he even pulled out his phone to show their previous conversation, "Look, the last message was from me, saying I was going for a bath and telling you to rest early."

Hearing this, the two zongzi beside burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, that's hilarious, the bath escape, isn't that your specialty, Xiaoqiqi?"

"Never thought you'd fall victim to this tactic one day, that's what they call karma, isn't it?"

Angie was quite annoyed, "Then why didn't you send me a message in the two weeks after your bath?"

"Because you didn't ask me to order anything?"

"Hahahaha," the other two were laughing even harder, "Boss, you're so funny. Seriously, what is the relationship between you and Xiaoqiqi?"

Ma Lu was about to blurt out that it was a boss and customer relationship, but then he remembered Ma Youyou's reminder and changed his response mid-way, "We're friends."

"Oh," one blinked, "then it's your fault, boss. Friends should keep in touch more often."

"Right," another joined in, "Two weeks without a single message is too much, and generally, people who end conversations with a bath are using it as an excuse to subtly imply they don't want to chat anymore."

"You should be more proactive next time, so you don't give the impression you don't want to keep in touch, which could make the relationship go cold."

"Exactly, every time I get such a message, I wonder if it's just a polite way to decline talking, but it's awkward to ask directly, so I just stop sending messages."

"That's right." Angie looked at Ma Lu again, "Now do you understand why I said you didn't reply to my messages?"

Although she was scolding Ma Lu, her tone sounded not at all angry, but rather in good spirits.

She then asked, "Where did you go for a hot spring bath? How was it?"

After Ma Lu named the place, she seemed even more satisfied, "I'll try it sometime."

"No need, it's just an ordinary hot spring resort. Though the advertisements claim it's a natural hot spring, I think it's just hot water heated by the hotel," Ma Lu said. "What would you like to eat?"

"We won't eat now, maybe next time. We're still working, just happened to pass by your shop, came to check it out and give you this. Here."

While talking, Angie took out her wallet, pulled out four concert tickets, "Next week, we have a concert in City B, you can bring friends to watch."
