Chapter 158 Are you going to put me under house arrest?

After hearing what Jin Zhuoxiao said, Yu Xi took a long time to react. She frowned and said, "I have a place to live and a job. Why would I move to your place?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "So I asked you to quit and move."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Yu Xi found it even more ridiculous: "Jin Zhuoxiao, could you not be so aggressive?"

"No," Jin Zhuoxiao said, "You're not going home anyway, so why not just stay in front of me."

Yu Xi gritted her teeth. She knew that meeting Jin Zhuoxiao would get her into trouble.

"You can take your time to think about it," Jin Zhuoxiao said with a half-smile, "I have plenty of time to accompany you."

Yu Xi frowned: "Are you going to put me under house arrest?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "It's not impossible."

Yu Xi asked: "Why do you put me under house arrest?"

Jin Zhuoxiao stretched out his arms, leaned lazily on the back of his chair and said, "I never do things rationally."

Yu Xi: “…”

You are quite proud.

"Yu Xi, there's actually no need for you to argue with me about this. Why do you have to go against money?"

Jin Zhuoxiao drooped his eyelids and said calmly, "I don't mean to belittle you. I just think that instead of working so hard outside and not making much money, and making me feel bad, you should think about what you can do for me in exchange for compensation. It will be good for both you and me."

Yu Xi didn't say anything, but what Jin Zhuoxiao said made sense. She had only one goal, which was to make money.

In fact, as long as she puts in the work, it doesn't matter who makes the money. It's easier to make money from Jin Zhuoxiao, and it is indeed a better choice. There is no need for her to get stuck on this.

Thinking of this, Yu Xi asked: "I continue to make money from you, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

"It doesn't matter," Jin Zhuoxiao said calmly, "I just don't want to see you suffer. If you want it, I don't think it's a big deal if I give it to you directly."

Listening to Jin Zhuoxiao's words, Yu Xi felt a little touched. Jin Zhuoxiao treated her really well.

Over the years, few people really cared about whether she was living a good life, and no one was like Jin Zhuoxiao, who was both concerned about her and able to help her.

"But let's be clear, I don't mean to trade money for feelings. You can make money from me, but you can't tie it to feelings."

Jin Zhuoxiao looked at Yu Xi and threatened her: "If I find out again, I don't know what I will do."

Yu Xi's heart was shocked and she avoided his sight guiltily. It seemed that Jin Zhuoxiao had not completely let go of what happened before.

But even if Jin Zhuoxiao didn't say anything, Yu Xi didn't dare to make the same mistake again. She had learned her lesson. She could offend no one but Jin Zhuoxiao, otherwise something would happen sooner or later.

Yu Xi thought about it carefully and asked, "Are you short of a cook?"

Jin Zhuoxiao raised his eyebrows: "Can you cook?"

"Well," Yu Xi paused and added, "I can't make it taste amazing, but it won't be unpalatable."

"That's enough," Jin Zhuoxiao said readily, "Then I'll take care of three meals a day. Is fifty thousand a month enough?"

Yu Xi was a little confused: "So many?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "The monthly salary of the cook in my family is basically at this level."

Yu Xi: “…”

As expected of a young master from a wealthy family, I have really opened my eyes.

Jin Zhuoxiao: "How is it?"

Yu Xi pursed her lips and said, "The aunt you hired to cook must be a professional. I'm an amateur, so about ten thousand will be enough."

Jin Zhuoxiao was willing to help her, and she would not be greedy. Ten thousand was already an upper-middle level. If she transferred five thousand to Yang Huijuan every month, the rest would be more than enough for her.

"Twenty thousand," Jin Zhuoxiao made the final decision, "I prefer even numbers."

Yu Xi: “…”

Having money makes you so willful.

After the two of them reached an agreement, Jin Zhuoxiao took out Yu Xi's cell phone. Yu Xi reached out to take it, but Jin Zhuoxiao dodged her.

Yu Xi frowned and looked at him: "What are you doing again?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "Give me your ID card later."

Yu Xi: “?”

There is really no trust between people, and it is even worse between her and Jin Zhuoxiao.

Seeing that Yu Xi didn't say anything, Jin Zhuoxiao narrowed his eyes and said, "If you don't agree, it means you have bad intentions, and what you just said doesn't count."

Yu Xi: “…”

What a crime.

She took a deep breath and compromised helplessly: "Okay, give it to me quickly."

Jin Zhuoxiao then returned the phone to Yu Xi: "No matter what happens, take a rest today and recuperate. You can get busy tomorrow."

"Yeah." Yu Xi knew that she couldn't do anything right now and wouldn't try to be brave.

After getting her phone back, she turned it on immediately and saw the unread messages and missed calls popping up on the lock screen. She felt a little nervous.

Yu Xi held his forehead and sighed, then gritted his teeth and called the restaurant manager back.

The manager hadn't been able to contact Yu Xi, so when he answered the phone he spoke in an angry tone, "Why didn't you come to work today?"

Yu Xi bit her lower lip and said softly, "I'm sorry, Manager. I was feeling a little unwell, so I overslept."

Hearing that her voice was still hoarse, the manager softened his tone: "If you are not feeling well, you should ask for leave in advance. It would be wrong if you just don't come."

"It's my problem," Yu Xi lowered her head and curled her fingers, "but I'm not feeling well right now, so I can't go to work. You can just deduct my salary for absenteeism."

Jin Zhuoxiao tilted his head and looked at Yu Xi. He felt that she was just like a kid who had made a mistake. She was really well behaved.

Manager: "Forget it, just take care of yourself if you are sick. How many days off do you want?"

Yu Xi hesitated for two seconds and said, "Manager, I plan to resign."

The manager was stunned: "Such a serious illness?"

"No," Yu Xi was afraid that she would think she was going to die, so she hurriedly explained, "I have other plans."

Having said that, the manager stopped asking questions and said directly, "Okay, then find some time to come and handle your resignation."

Yu Xi: "I'll go to the store tomorrow."

Manager: “Yes.”

After hanging up the phone, Yu Xicai breathed a sigh of relief.

Jin Zhuoxiao: "Is it settled?"

Yu Xi responded and lowered her eyes to look for Sun Lin on the blacklist.

She hasn't forgotten that she had stood up Sun Lin. She doesn't know what Sun Lin's state is now, and she feels very guilty.

Jin Zhuoxiao saw Yu Xi making another phone call and asked, "If it's not resolved, who are you calling again?"

Yu Xi: "Sun Lin."

Jin Zhuoxiao's expression changed: "Why did you contact him again?"

"I'll explain it to you later." After saying that, Yu Xi made a gesture to Jin Zhuoxiao to keep quiet.

Jin Zhuoxiao: "..."

"Yu Xi, you finally contacted me!"

After the call was connected, Sun Lin's somewhat excited voice suddenly came.

Yu Xi's ears exploded, and she frowned and moved the phone further away: "Keep your voice down."

Sun Lin: "What's wrong with your throat?"

Yu Xi replied casually: "I'm angry."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Zhuoxiao sat next to Yu Xi and snatched the phone away.

Yu Xi was stunned and stared at him, with the word "what are you doing" written all over his face.

Jin Zhuoxiao turned on the speaker of his cell phone and placed it between the two of them.

Sun Lin's voice came out instantly: "What happened last night? Zhang Yichi told me that you are Jin Zhuoxiao's ex-girlfriend, is that true or not?"
