"Miss Caocang, Miss Shuihe, do you have any thoughts on my arrangement?" (Bai Yaxin)
-
Bai Yaxin clasped his hands on the table.
-
He looked at the two young girls with a gentle expression.
-
Not at all like a ruthless person.
-
"I have arranged Miss Caocang as the store manager and Miss Shuihe as the assistant manager considering your personalities and abilities." (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Miss Caocang is proactive, outgoing, and decisive. As a store manager, she will likely have a great effect in various social situations and uniting the staff." (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Miss Shuihe is meticulous in her thinking, steady in her actions, and suitable for guiding and assisting Miss Caocang in various aspects, helping her out when she gets too carried away." (Bai Yaxin)
-
As Bai Yaxin spoke, he kept looking back and forth between the two, with eyes full of admiration.
-
"I believe that with the two of you as a golden combination managing a branch store, performance will quickly rise." (Bai Yaxin)
-
"... What do you think?" (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Of course! I am very sk... " (Caocanglian)
-
Excited, Caocanglian tried to stand up with a "clap," but before she could, Shuihe Lin Fan covered her mouth once again.
-
"Mr. Bai, you are too kind. We still have a lot to learn from you and areas where we need to grow." (Shuihe Lin Fan)
-
While Shuihe Lin Fan covered Caocanglian's mouth, she calmly replied.
-
Watching the two so adorable, Bai Yaxin couldn't help but laugh again.
-
"Hahaha, that's the spirit!" (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Seeing your close relationship, it really makes people envious." (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Seeing you both, I also want a brother or sister whom I can trust." (Bai Yaxin)
-
"Doesn't Mr. Bai have any siblings?" (Shuihe Lin Fan)
-
And so, the conversation began like this, and in the midst of the exchange between the three, the waiters brought out the pre-dinner appetizer, Yamazaki Hawthorn Soda.
-
Out of courtesy, Bai Yaxin and Shuihe Lin Fan did not immediately taste it, but Caocanglian could not resist.
-
As soon as the drink was brought out, Caocanglian couldn't help but take a sip. The sweet and sour, ice-cold, refreshing sensation made her unable to help but exclaim "Ah~."
-
Then, the appetizer was brought out, consisting of mantis shrimp, salmon roe, and yuzu vinegar. Caocanglian immediately started eating. The light seasoning and fresh texture of the appetizer made her slightly intoxicated, and she couldn't help but exclaim again, "Wow~."
-
Seeing Caocanglian's innocent and lovely reactions, both Bai Yaxin and Shuihe Lin Fan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
-
But in Caocanglian's seemingly innocent appearance, she was actually thinking, how wonderful, they are actually having Kaiseki cuisine.
-
Kaiseki cuisine would take at least an hour. This way, for Caocanglian and the others, time suddenly became very abundant.
-
Setting aside their mission temporarily, the fact that they couldn't enjoy Kaiseki cuisine last time was unexpectedly realized today in this manner.
-
Moreover, it was apparent that the quality and ingredients of the cuisine were even higher than what they had previously experienced.
-
After the appetizer, following the sequence of Kaiseki cuisine, each person enjoyed snow crab chawanmushi, daily flown-in deep-sea sashimi, lobster emperor burn, steamed living snow crab with salt, star eel bamboo shoot vegetable roll, thin-grilled European Wagyu beef, nine-grid imperial rice, miso soup, Uji matcha... one dish after another, overwhelming everyone.
-
If it weren't for Caocanglian (Manranyama Souren) and Shuihe Lin Fan (Van) being well-traveled, they might have easily been distracted and forgotten their original task during the meal.
-
However, while there was no internal turmoil, they still had to maintain appearances.
-
"Wow, the texture of this star eel is so delicate!" (Caocanglian)
-
"Paired with this sweet and crispy green bamboo shoot, and the refreshing vegetable roll, it's truly fantastic!" (Caocanglian)
-
"Caocangjie, don't speak so loudly during the meal." (Shuihe Lin Fan)
-
"But it's really delicious!" (Caocanglian)
-
"The tenderness of this Wagyu beef is just right, I've never eaten such tender and juicy beef before!!" (Caocanglian)
-
"Sister, do you want more? If you can't finish, I'll help you!" (Caocanglian)
-
Caocanglian's innocent and straightforward cuteness not only made Bai Yaxin laugh heartily and feel happy, but also made the waitress sisters next to her smile with joy.
-
It is worth mentioning that these well-trained waitress sisters provided excellent service that was not inferior to the exquisite dishes. Even if a drop of soup accidentally dripped during the meal, a waitress immediately came over to wipe the table clean.
-
Their skilled and precise techniques made their service as subtle as a spring rain, without any interruption or disturbance to the trio's dining experience, reaching the epitome of service.
-
After the meal, everyone had tea and enjoyed some fruit together.
-
The fruits presented were also extraordinary, including the renowned LV Japanese Shizuoka webbed melon and the Hermes in the fruit world, Qingwang grapes, all top-notch varieties.
-
Allowing the weary taste buds to be amazed even at the end of the meal.
-
"Sorry for the lackluster hospitality." (Bai Yaxin)
-
After everyone finished eating, Bai Yaxin slowly spoke.
-
"That's not true, the food was delicious!" (Caocanglian)
-
"Mr. Bai, whenever you want to eat with me again, I'm available anytime, twenty-four hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year!" (Caocanglian)
-
Before Shuihe Lin Fan could speak, Caocanglian eagerly raised her hand, afraid of being forgotten by Bai Yaxin.
-
"Haha, as long as you had a good time eating." (Bai Yaxin)
-
But Caocanglian was well aware that Bai Yaxin was just acting.
-
The Bai Yaxin she knew was not so amiable.
-
This being named "Bai Yaxin" was only a monster clad in human skin. Beneath that surface was the heart of a devil.
-
His performance was entirely to establish his empire, to use more pawns.
-
"Now that everyone's full, there's no rush to leave, we just finished eating and need a rest." (Bai Yaxin)
-
- Finally, it's here.
-
Upon hearing Bai Yaxin's first sentence, Caocanglian had already guessed what was going to happen next.
-
"On my end, I've prepared a little game for the two of you to enjoy." (Bai Yaxin)
-
Bai Yaxin clapped, and the waitstaff promptly cleaned up the table and placed two small black boxes on the table.
-
These small black boxes were about the size of an apple, covered in black high-quality velvet with a silver thread embroidered with the character "Bai."
-
They looked somewhat like ring boxes, but instead of a flip-open structure, they had a nested pull-out structure.
-
"Wow~ Is this a gift for us??" (Caocanglian)
-
Excited, Caocanglian's eyes lit up with stars, and she reached out on the table, unable to resist opening it.
-
"Caocang, it's impolite not to let Mr. Bai finish." (Shuihe Lin Fan)
-
"Haha, it's okay. If you're not this excited, then you wouldn't be our Caocanglian, right?" (Bai Yaxin)
-
"If you win this little game, these two boxes will be given to you as a gift. How about that?" (Bai Yaxin)
-
Bai Yaxin's gaze toward the two became profound.
