Why did the system take my request to take photos with a cosplayer seriously?

"Hello, are you still hiring?"

The voice wasn't loud, but the pronunciation was clear.

Zhao Yanxi subconsciously looked at Ding Heng, who raised his chin, indicating that she should do it herself.

"It was recruited."

Zhao Yanxi sat down again and smiled, "Please sit down."

"Thanks……"

The girl sat down awkwardly: "Um... my name is Su Wan, I submitted my resume on the app."

Zhao Yanxi immediately opened her phone to check, and sure enough, there was a resume that Su Wan had submitted.

"You used to work at XX Coffee?"

"Correct."

Su Wan replied, "I've done both material preparation and production, and I also know basic machine maintenance."

"That shop must be pretty busy, right?"

There are many related chain brands in Changsha, and their customer traffic has always been high.

"Hmm... During my working hours, I produce about 1,000 to 1,500 cups."

Su Wan added, "Sometimes during peak holiday periods, it can even exceed two thousand!"

Zhao Yanxi continued, "Business was so good, the salary must have been decent, why did you leave?"

"Because the scheduling is too unstable."

Su Wan answered honestly: "Sometimes I work the early shift and sometimes the late shift. I can't adjust my schedule, and my body can't handle it."

"So you're looking for a shop with a fixed shift schedule?"

Not entirely.

Su Wan shook her head, her eyes lowered: "At that previous store, there wasn't much interaction between colleagues, and it felt... pretty boring."

Zhao Yanxi noticed Su Wan's emotions.

Unlike the first girl, she wasn't complaining about being tired; rather, she had a clear sense of inferiority.

The situation is very likely one of being ostracized and bullied...

"What are your salary requirements?"

According to a figure from Suzhou Evening News, the price is roughly the same as the market price, neither high nor low.

Just as Zhao Yanxi was about to ask another question, Ding Heng's earlier instruction suddenly flashed through her mind.

You need to ask for details; the more detailed the questions, the better you can judge.

She reopened the resume and reviewed the candidate's work experience again.

Did you work at your previous store for a year?

"Correct."

"Then you must have encountered quite a few difficult customers, right?"

"I've encountered that before."

How did you handle it?

"Hmm... For example, some customers complain that the food is served too slowly..."

Su Wan began to speak fluently and confidently, demonstrating her experience and genuine knowledge.

Zhao Yanxi finally asked, "Su Wan, if we hire you, when is the earliest you can start work?"

Su Wan was clearly taken aback, probably not expecting the interview to have a result so quickly.

"Anytime is fine."

"That's fine."

Zhao Yanxi stood up and extended her hand to her: "Welcome to the team."

Su Wan quickly stood up and took Zhao Yanxi's hand.

"Thank you, boss."

"You're welcome."

Zhao Yanxi smiled and replied, opening her WeChat QR code: "Let's add each other's contact information. Go back and prepare, and come back to work after the Lantern Festival."

Su Wan quickly did as instructed, thanked him repeatedly, and then turned and left with a smile.

Zhao Yanxi asked eagerly, "Brother Ding Heng, how did I do just now?"

Ding Heng asked curiously, "How can you be sure she'll be hired?"

Zhao Yanxi began to analyze: "First, she has a sense of propriety and knows what she can and cannot do."

Secondly, she was most likely ostracized at her previous job, but she didn't speak ill of her former colleagues, which shows that she is an honest person.

Third...she could explain in detail how to do everything, which shows she had real experience and was skilled in it, exactly the kind of talent I needed.

After Zhao Yanxi finished speaking, she looked at Ding Heng expectantly.

"What's wrong, Brother Ding Heng? Was my analysis wrong?"

"Maybe so."

Ding Heng sighed, "You can't judge a book by its cover; we'll have to wait and see what happens next..."

Because of her father's influence, Zhao Yanxi's observation and logical thinking skills have always been excellent.

However, sometimes making blind judgments can be seen as being too clever for one's own good.

She noticed that Su Wan was being ostracized, but why was she being ostracized?

Zhao Yanxi didn't think twice and immediately labeled Su Wan as a victim...

You should know that Su Wan worked at her previous store for a whole year. As a skilled worker, the boss would definitely try his best to keep her unless absolutely necessary.

Zhao Yanxi finally asked, "So, is it okay if I hire her?"

"no problem."

Ding Heng didn't say anything and picked up the car keys.

"Let's go eat."

Doing business isn't child's play; it's good to let the kitten suffer a little sometimes...

Chapter 302: Should I Start a Relationship?

In the following days, Zhao Yanxi entered the final preparation stage, leaving early and returning late every day, her phone ringing constantly.

Supplier disputes, confirming details with the renovation team, and communicating with the property management about fire safety inspections.

Sometimes when Ding Heng woke up at night, the spot next to him was empty, and he wouldn't hear the door lock click until the early hours of the morning.

The kitten tiptoed into the bathroom, the water gushing out for a moment, and then snuggled into the covers.

Ding Heng asked with concern, "Are you tired these past two days?"

Zhao Yanxi gave a muffled "hmm," buried her face in the man's chest, and fell into a deep sleep in less than three seconds.

The following afternoon, Zhao Yanxi finally had some free time, and Ding Heng drove her back to her hometown of Zhuzhou.

When they arrived at their destination, Zhao Yanxi unbuckled her seatbelt.

"Brother Ding Heng."

"Ok?"

"I'm staying at home tonight. My mom said she wants to talk to me."

"Row."

"Aren't you staying?"

"No, my grandparents' family has sent some relatives, and they want me to go back home."

Ding Heng's excuse was clumsy, but he knew in his heart that it was best not to disturb Zhou Rongmei's talk to her daughter today.

Zhao Yanxi said "Oh," and as usual, leaned over and kissed Ding Heng on the cheek before getting out of the car.

"Drive carefully."

"Ah."

Ding Heng watched Zhao Yanxi walk into the building and sat idly in the car for a while.

Then he started the car and, instead of turning back onto the highway, drove towards Wenjing's house.

In winter, Zhuzhou is shrouded in gray, and its industrial city atmosphere becomes even stronger.

A few minutes later, Ding Heng parked his car downstairs at Wenjing's house and took two gift boxes out of the trunk.

Go upstairs and knock on the door.

Wen Dahai opened the door.

"Xiao Ding?"

Wen Dahai was surprised, then quickly stepped aside: "Come, come, come in quickly."

Luo Guihua peeked out from the kitchen and was surprised to see Ding Heng. She then put on a smile, wiped her hands on her apron, and came to greet him.

"Little Ding is here? Have you eaten? Auntie will make you something."

"Not yet, thank you, Auntie."

"No trouble at all, please have a seat, it will be ready soon."

Luo Guihua turned and went into the kitchen, where Wen Dahai poured Ding Heng a cup of tea.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, nothing more than vague, everyday questions like "Are you busy lately?" and "How is Wenjing?"

Ding Heng responded, his gaze sweeping around the living room.
