Volume 1: The Golden Years Chapter 011: Getting by
Yiyuan Garden, in a private room for ten people.
Served by two young waiters, Yuan Xudong ate the not-so-delicious crab while looking at the owner of Yiyuan who was sitting opposite him, and joked:
"Boss, your golden crabs are great, and the waiters are even better. They are simply a feast for the eyes!"
"Mr. Yuan is joking!"
The boss of Yiyuan said with a reserved look:
"They are all female students from a nearby university. They use their free time to work as part-time waitresses here to earn a living!"
"Yeah?"
Yuan Xudong did not comment, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at the young waiter who was standing next to him and helping to process the golden crabs. The other person was about 1.75 meters tall, wearing a high-slit blue and white porcelain cheongsam, and his white thighs were faintly visible. His face was rosy and shiny, and his big watery eyes were adorable.
Seeing Yuan Xudong looking at her nakedly like this, Zhao Ruoxi blushed and her body tensed up. She handed the peeled golden crab to him and said in a trembling voice:
"Sir, your golden crab is ready!"
After saying that, without waiting for Yuan Xudong's response, she prepared to move a few steps away to avoid his burning gaze.
Just as she was about to take a step, she didn't expect Yuan Xudong to grab her wrist directly and apply a little force. Zhao Ruoxi screamed, her steps were unsteady, and she fell into Yuan Xudong's arms. The strange man hugged her body. Zhao Ruoxi, who was just a freshman, blushed with shame and struggled to get up in a hurry!
"I'm sorry, Miss Zhao!"
Yuan Xudong glanced at the nameplate on Zhao Ruoxi's chest. His gaze from above was so big, so white, and so deep. As if sensing Yuan Xudong's wanton gaze, Zhao Ruoxi quickly covered her chest, stood up with a flushed face, and stammered:
"No...it's okay, it's me...I fell down accidentally, it's...it's none of your business!"
Seeing Zhao Ruoxi acting like a frightened little white rabbit, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but doubt his own guess. Is she a serious person, or does she have perfect acting skills?
Seeing Zhao Ruoxi looking like she was about to cry but secretly enduring it, Yuan Xudong actually felt like seeing a prey and wanted to bully her.
Cursing himself for being a psychopath, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but feel guilty when he saw another waiter whispering to comfort Zhao Ruoxi. He felt that he had really fallen and his conscience was blinded by money. He was just like the villain in the novel, the kind who specifically bullied little girls, and then was taken advantage of by the protagonist to rob the rich and give to the poor, and finally died without a burial place!
Secretly admiring his own imagination, Yuan Xudong took out the remaining cash from his wallet and stuffed it all over Zhao Ruoxi and another waiter, saying:
"I held you to give you a tip and thank you for peeling crabs for me. I didn't expect you to fall. I'm so sorry!"
Seeing Zhao Ruoxi's hesitation, another waiter quickly took the tip from Yuan Xudong and thanked him happily:
"Thank you sir, I will split it with Ruoxi!"
"Um!"
Yuan Xudong nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice:
"You two, go out for a moment. I have something to discuss with the boss!"
"Yes, sir!"
Seeing their boss nod slightly, Zhao Ruoxi and the other person said goodbye to Yuan Xudong and left the box.
Just before closing, I don’t know what another waiter said to Zhao Ruoxi, but the latter burst into laughter. The last glance Yuan Xudong saw was of Zhao Ruoxi’s smiling face, full of youthful vitality, which made people feel like spring breeze and reluctant to leave!
Seeing Yuan Xudong staring at the direction where Zhao Ruoxi and the others left, he sighed in his heart that it was great to be young. The owner of Yiyuan couldn't help but joked:
"Mr. Yuan is interested in Xiao Zhao?"
"Ahem, I'm a little interested!"
Yuan Xudong did not hide it and admitted it directly. Without waiting for the boss of Yiyuan to continue gossiping, he said directly:
"Boss, I was commissioned by Ye Jinyan, the president of Jingyan Group, to secretly investigate his exclusive driver, Master Ma. The company's finance department discovered that Master Ma used his position to lie about Mr. Ye's daily expenses and embezzled public funds for personal consumption.
Someone saw him using Mr. Ye's private car to bring a young and beautiful girl to Yiyuan for consumption. When he pays the bill, please pay attention and give me a copy of the bill!"
Having said this, he paused for a moment and continued :
"This golden crab meal must be expensive, right? Send two golden crab meals to Master Ma, and get two bottles of good wine. When they are full, ask the waiter to settle the bill with Master Ma. If he goes back to the company and reimburses the bill in the name of Mr. Ye, my mission will be accomplished!"
Hearing this, the boss of Yiyuan hesitated slightly and said:
"Isn't it a bad idea to test Master Ma like this?"
"What's wrong with that?"
Yuan Xudong's face was calm, and he said with disdain:
"It's okay to want to pick up pretty young girls, and it's also okay to come to Yiyuan to eat and drink lavishly, but it's a big mistake to use the company's resources to act pretentiously and damage the company's interests and reputation. Master Ma has been with Mr. Ye for eight years. How could he not know what Yiyuan is and how much he earns every month?"
Although he heard Yuan Xudong say this, the boss of Yiyuan did not want to cause trouble, and said hesitantly:
"If it is discovered that Master Ma has reimbursed the bills privately, will President Ye...?"
"No, don't worry!"
Knowing what the boss of Yiyuan wanted to say, Yuan Xudong directly said:
"Master Ma has been with Mr. Ye for eight years. Even if he has no credit, he has worked hard. Even if he is just pretending in front of others, Mr. Ye will not call the police. At most, he will fire Master Ma and hire a full-time driver!"
Seeing that the boss of Yiyuan was still hesitating, Yuan Xudong spoke directly:
"Boss, help me apply for two lifetime memberships, and recharge each card with 500,000 yuan. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yuan Xudong. I am a friend and partner of Ye Jinyan, the president of Jingyan Group. The Songjiang Hotel project is a joint venture between our two companies. If you are still worried, you can call Ye Jinyan to ask!"
Hearing Yuan Xudong say that he was a partner of Jingyan Group and had jointly developed the Songjiang Hotel project with Jingyan Group, Master Ma knew that he was just Ye Jinyan's full-time driver and was polite to him to give face to Mr. Ye. After all, he was just a small figure, not even as good as himself. It was obvious which was more important.
Thinking of this, the boss of Yiyuan said with a serious expression:
"What are you talking about, Mr. Yuan? You look like a noble person, why should I be worried?"
After saying that, he stood up and left his seat, walked out of the box, and smiled at Yuan Xudong:
"Mr. Yuan, I will go and do what you asked me to do first. I will ask Xiao Zhao to bring the membership card over later. All the performance will be counted on Xiao Zhao. Please wait for a moment!"
"Then I'll trouble you, boss. You go and get busy first!"
Yuan Xudong said politely, and the owner of Yiyuen nodded slightly, then walked out of the box and closed the door, leaving Yuan Xudong alone in the box eating the disgusting big crab. Since he was a child, he has never liked eating seafood!
Outside the box, the boss of Yiyuan gradually stopped smiling. He looked at Zhao Ruoxi and the other person and said,
"Xiao Zhao, go get two lifetime membership cards for Mr. Yuan, top up each card with 500,000 yuan, and then eat crabs with him. If Mr. Yuan is satisfied, the sales of this order will be counted on you, and you can get a lot of commission. I know you don't have a good family background and need to earn your own living expenses, so seize this opportunity, understand?"
"Got it, boss!"
Seeing the boss' serious expression, Zhao Ruoxi said timidly.
The waiter at the side had an envious look on his face. According to the rules of Yiyuan, this kind of lifetime membership card had the highest commission. The total recharge of the two cards was one million yuan, and Zhao Ruoxi would get at least 10% commission, which was one hundred thousand yuan!
I have worked part-time as a waiter for two years and still haven't earned 100,000 yuan. I didn't expect Xiao Zhao to earn that much in just one month. It's like meeting a noble person when going out and hearing good news at home. I can't envy him enough!
After giving the instructions, the boss of Yiyuen continued to do what Yuan Xudong had asked him to do. Seeing the boss turn the corner and disappear from sight, Zhao Ruoxi couldn't help but get excited, her face flushed.
She knew that she had made money, just like the legendary Golden Moe. The girlfriend of her roommate’s friend’s cousin was once rewarded with two Golden Moe. The income was almost the same as her current income. It turned out that this was how it felt to be hit by a Golden Moe. It was so happy!
Looking at Zhao Ruoxi's happy expression, another waiter couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Ruoxi, what are you thinking about?"
Hearing this, Zhao Ruoxi replied blankly:
"I'm thinking of the Golden Big Moe, the really cute kind!"
As a loyal reader of Qidian, another waitress clearly understood what golden cuteness was. She lifted the hem of her cheongsam, pulled the collar of her cheongsam, unbuttoned a button, and looked at the box where Yuan Xudong was, saying jokingly:
"Let go of Mr. Yuan, let me do it!"
“Haha~~”
"Senior, you are so funny!"
"No, I'm serious!"
"Please let Mr. Yuan go!"
