A Beta boy working part-time in another world

Chapter 46 Being a Mistress in the Immortal Cultivation Plane (2)

The day the boss left was quiet and did not alarm anyone, including Ye Sui.

He didn't know his boss had left until he saw the letter on the office desk.

This separation is not just a month or a year.

But it lasted for three years.

One summer day three years later, the cicadas were chirping noisily in the trees in the yard. Ye Sui was sitting by the window in the second-floor room, concentrating on calculating the account book.

He has been the acting store manager for three years, but the boss is still missing.

He wanted to go back to see Latim, but kept putting it off because of his busy schedule.

These three years are neither short nor long, but they have changed many things.

Today, the Lord of Muyun City unfortunately passed away, and his funeral was held grandly and solemnly.

The city lord's only son carried the coffin in his hands, walked slowly along the busy main street, and left the city.

Ye Sui happened to have some free time, so he sat in the attic and looked into the distance.

The diners downstairs were making a lot of noise, and the noise unconsciously drifted into Ye Sui's ears.

It is said that the death of City Lord Mu Yun was quite strange and not a natural death.

Ye Sui didn't understand the twists and turns involved. After taking a few glances, he looked away and concentrated on calculating the income and expenditure accounts.

"Boom boom boom——"

A burst of hurried footsteps came from downstairs and the door was pushed open suddenly.

Before seeing the person, he heard the voice first, and Ye Sui knew who it was without having to guess.

Apart from Wujiu, who else would make such loud footsteps?

"Ye Sui, let's go out and play, it's so lively outside." Wu Jiu looked at Ye Sui with anticipation, his eyes flashing with excitement.

Ye Sui smiled helplessly.

He knew Wujiu's personality and that he was always very excited every time he went out.

But he still had accounts to settle, and that was a responsibility he could not shirk.

"No, I haven't finished calculating the accounts yet." Ye Sui replied firmly.

When Wu Jiu heard Ye Sui's answer, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed across his face.

He curled his lips, sat down next to the boy, and looked resentful.

"What's the point of calculating with this crappy account book?" he said with some complaint.

After hearing this, Ye Sui smiled helplessly.

He knew that Wujiu was concerned about him, but he couldn't let that delay his work.

"It's not clear. How do you know whether you have made money or not?" Ye Sui explained patiently.

After hearing this, Wujiu stopped complaining.

He looked at Ye Sui seriously calculating the accounts and couldn't help feeling fascinated.

He knew that Ye Sui was a responsible person and he couldn't let his play delay his work.

So he sat quietly aside, talking to himself about the interesting things happening among the diners downstairs.

After Ye Sui finished the accounts, he saw Wu Jiu sitting aside and talking for a long time. He really envied him for his energy and the fact that he didn't feel tired at all.

He picked up a piece of cake and handed it to Wujiu.

"Have some cakes."

But even the cakes couldn't stop him from talking.

Wujiu swallowed the pastry in one gulp and continued to chatter after eating.

Ye Sui had a faint smile on his face and listened patiently to his chatter.

"This world is so strange that the death of one person can cause such a sensation."

"Unfortunately, the cause of death is too bizarre."

"I think this may be a case of one's own fault."

As soon as Wujiu finished speaking, Ye Sui was stunned on the spot, with surprise in his eyes. Wujiu's words made him feel a little confused.

"Wujiu, can you explain in detail what it means to bring disaster upon oneself?"

Wujiu smiled slightly, then collapsed like a boneless person, lying lazily in the boy's arms.

He found a comfortable position and continued the conversation.

"I'm afraid that the city lords praised by the people may not be good people."

Ye Sui pondered for a moment, thinking back on everything he had heard over the past three years, it seemed that this was not the case.

The people in Muyun City praised the city lord highly and never had any complaints.

However, after staying in this world for a long time, even he began to feel that the city lord was not unforgivable, but Wujiu's remarks at this moment surprised him.

As an angel, Wujiu can see the dark side of human nature.

Those city lords who were praised by the people were surrounded by thick black mist, which showed how many crimes they had committed when they were alive, and their hands might even be stained with countless blood.

Otherwise, how could the resentment be so dark as ink?

Unfortunately, Ye Sui couldn't see these.

Wujiu seemed to not care about all this, after all, it was someone else's private matter.

"Very sleepy……"

"Go to bed and rest."

Ye Sui was still busy reviewing the account books and couldn't spare the time to chat with him.

"No."

Wujiu pouted slightly, buried her head in Ye Sui's arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, breathing in the faint fragrance of Ye Sui, with a smile flashing in her eyes.

"Then lie down and don't move."

"Um……"

After a while, Ye Sui heard Wu Jiu's steady and shallow breathing in his arms.

Ye Sui was stunned, worried that Wujiu was not sleeping comfortably, so he closed his legs, gently lifted a corner of his clothes, and gently covered Wujiu's belly.

Wujiu seemed to have sensed something, and her trembling eyelashes opened a little, as if she was worried that Ye Sui would find out that she was pretending to be asleep, so she didn't dare to reveal any flaws. However, she didn't expect that she actually fell asleep while trying to hold back her laughter.

When he woke up, the sun was setting. The scorching sun had long disappeared, leaving only the gorgeous clouds in half of the sky.

Wujiu yawned and went downstairs.

Seeing this, Ru Niang, who was busy, had a glimmer of surprise in her eyes.

"Wujiu, is Mr. Ye upstairs?"

"exist."

Wu Jiu responded calmly, then asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want to take a leave..."

Before Ru Niang finished speaking, Wu Jiu understood her intention.

"Go upstairs and talk to Mr. Ye."

After hearing this, Ru Niang nodded, quickly packed her things, washed her hands, and went upstairs carefully holding up her skirt.

Arriving at the office door, Ru Niang knocked gently.

"Come in." Ye Sui's voice came from inside.

Ru Niang pushed the door open and looked at Ye Sui with some uneasiness in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Ye Sui asked.

"Mr. Ye, I want to ask for leave."

Ye Sui nodded, "Okay, how long do you want?"

"About half a month..."

When Ye Sui heard the time, he was a little surprised and looked up at Ru Niang.

"You are going to take half a month off. Did something happen at home?"

Ru Niang is the most special employee in the store. Ye Sui usually takes good care of her and assigns her some work that comes with a little bonus.

Now seeing that she wants to take a leave of absence for half a month, I am afraid something unexpected has happened at home.

When Ru Niang saw that Ye Sui cared about her so much, she was deeply moved and her eyes welled up slightly.

She slowly told the truth.

"My father said I am not young anymore, so he arranged a marriage for me. I will come back to work after I am married."

"Ru Niang, if I remember correctly, you are only twenty years old this year."

"Yes." Ru Niang nodded.

After hearing this, Ye Sui couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

He put down his pen, brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Ru Niang.

"Let's have a cup of tea first."

Seeing this, Ru Niang shook her head embarrassedly.

"No thanks, Mr. Ye."

In her opinion, if she suddenly asked for half a month's leave in other restaurants, she would have been fired by the boss long ago.

Now that she was treated so well by Ye Sui, her heart was filled with gratitude and respect. Moreover, this tea was so precious that she could not afford to drink it.

She felt uneasy and her eyes became red.

Ye Sui's thoughts drifted to Ru Niang's affairs.

"Ru Niang, is the monthly salary you receive from the store enough to support the family's expenses?"

Ru Niang nodded gratefully and responded, "That's enough. Now my brothers are in school, and my mother's health has improved a lot."

Ye Sui then asked: "Are you in a hurry to get married now?"

This question surprised Ru Niang a little, as she had never considered that she needed to make her own decisions on her own marriage.

"Isn't it the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words?" she responded doubtfully.

Ye Sui understood her confusion, but still said patiently: "You should also consider your own happiness. Do you want to get married? Do you know that person? Is he worthy of your lifelong commitment?"

As Ye Sui asked questions, Ru Niang's emotions gradually fluctuated, tears welled up in her eyes, she bit her lips, trying hard not to cry out.

Seeing this, Ye Sui stopped asking questions.

He took a sip from the teacup, and after Ru Niang calmed down a little, he continued, "You are still young, there is no need to rush to get married. I remember one day three years ago, you told me that you wanted to open a small shop and live a simple life."

Ru Niang nodded in agreement. At that time, her only wish was to open a small shop, support her family, and take care of her two younger brothers.

Now, Mr. Ye has increased her salary to enough to supplement the family income.

However, Ru Niang never thought deeply about these questions.

Ye Sui further pointed out: "If you get married, you will have to obey your husband's family's arrangements. Will they really support you to continue working here?"

Hearing this question, Ru Niang's eyes became confused.

She understood Mr. Ye's concerns.

As a woman, if you go against your parents' arrangements, you will be regarded as a great treason.
