Chapter 29: This Person is Really Annoying
Seeing that she was almost ready, Ji Yunqi wasted no more time. She put her schoolbag and other items in the break room and headed to her work station.
Upon arriving at the bar, it was as noisy as usual. Sometimes Ji Yunqi really couldn’t understand.
Were these people fixed NPCs? Refreshing on time every day, making them seem like they were also working part-time.
The noisy environment around her made it impossible for Ji Yunqi to notice that someone was secretly watching her. Perhaps it was because she was solely focused on doing her own things diligently that she didn’t notice.
“Xiao Yun, take this to table 25,” the bartender at the counter carefully placed an exquisite cocktail on a tray and motioned for Ji Yunqi to deliver it.
Looking at the cocktail in the tray, which was almost overflowing, Ji Yunqi frowned. She felt like someone was deliberately making things difficult for her.
This cocktail was expensive and usually not delivered by newcomers like her, but by senior employees.
Moreover, generally in a bar, unless a cocktail was ordered and consumed directly at the counter, it would not be served full. It would be at most eight-tenths full.
This was to make it convenient for the waiters to deliver drinks to customers.
But now this expensive cocktail was not only expensive but also full. Ji Yunqi could do nothing about it and could only force herself to calm down.
At the same time, she pondered in her heart whether she had offended anyone.
But after thinking about it, she couldn’t figure out who she had offended.
The only possibility was that she had refused some people who gave her high tips last night, but she had spoken politely at the time, so there shouldn’t have been any possibility of offending someone.
At most, they might have been a little displeased, but not enough to do something like this.
Bypassing the layers of people, Ji Yunqi finally saw who this person was!
Wasn’t this her good deskmate? So it was him playing tricks on her!
Seeing Ji Yunqi’s fluctuating expression, Ye Mingkong felt a great sense of satisfaction. It wasn’t that she had any malicious taste.
He ordered this relatively expensive drink, which served two purposes: to tease Ji Yunqi and to add to her sales performance.
Although the commission for these sales for waiters like Ji Yunqi, especially part-time ones, was very low, it was better than nothing.
However, Ye Mingkong was not aware of this and thought he was helping Ji Yunqi.
Just as he was waiting for Ji Yunqi to thank him with his legs crossed, he saw Ji Yunqi just give him a glare, lightly put down the tray, and prepare to leave.
Accustomed to arranging various things, Ye Mingkong was a little surprised that Ji Yunqi’s reaction was completely unexpected. He couldn’t just let her go like this.
“Hey, come back!”
With Ye Mingkong’s scolding, Ji Yunqi had no choice but to stop. Regardless of their relationship in school, here they were in a relationship of customer and server.
She couldn’t openly reject Ye Mingkong. Rolling her eyes earlier was already her limit. If this person were to complain about her, she would have nowhere to cry.
“Excuse me, sir, is there anything else you need?” Ji Yunqi, imitating the way those who had flattered her before, put on a professional smile.
“Come, sit…” Ye Mingkong patted the seat next to him, signaling Ji Yunqi to sit beside him.
Ji Yunqi pursed her lips and refused, “Sir, if you don’t need anything else, I’ll go back to work…”
Without waiting for Ye Mingkong to speak again, Ji Yunqi turned and left.
“Oh my, this little loli…”
Ye Mingkong knew that relentless pursuit would only lead to disgust, so it was better to just watch her quietly.
Ye Mingkong had only learned a few days ago that Ji Yunqi was already living with Ji Chengyun, which made him think more.
Such a girl suddenly moving into the house, he would definitely have to take a good look. As for what her relationship with Ji Chengyun was like, he didn’t need to consider too much.
If their relationship were bad, she would have been kicked out long ago. Now that she cared so much about her, it was only because Ye Mingkong was curious and wanted to understand Ji Yunqi better.
…
On the other side, Ji Yunqi was not as relaxed as Ye Mingkong.
Meeting him here, Ji Yunqi couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. Although it wasn’t an improper job, being teased by an acquaintance while she was working was still a bit unbearable.
For some reason, there were exceptionally many customers tonight, which led to Ji Yunqi… working overtime tonight…
However, it was good that there was overtime pay, which was an unexpected pleasant surprise. But even without overtime pay, Ji Yunqi wouldn’t dare to say anything. She didn’t have the courage of contemporary young people.
If she had to work overtime without pay, contemporary young people would probably leave on the spot, but Ji Yunqi couldn’t. She needed this job.
Other things were not suitable, and with her frail body, there was not much she could do besides those improper jobs. Therefore, she could only endure it.
The night grew deeper…
More and more people who came to the bar were not decent.
In just two days, Ji Yunqi had figured out this pattern. Once it got late, many of the people who came to the bar were not decent people.
As expected, another refined scum grabbed her hand.
He also handed a glass of wine to Ji Yunqi.
“Come, as long as you have a drink with me, I guarantee you’ll earn a lot of money tonight.”
Looking at the greasy look of the person in front of her, Ji Yunqi felt physically uncomfortable, but she didn’t show it on her face.
While trying to pull her hand away, she smiled and persuaded him, “Excuse me, sir, please don’t do this. It will affect my work.”
“Hey, it’s nothing, just one drink~”
Ji Yunqi could tell that this guy really didn’t want to let her go. In this bar, she couldn’t count on her colleagues; no one dared to stand up for her.
As for the manager?
He had probably gotten off work and was slacking off!
Looking at the colorful drink in front of her, and then at the greasy and somewhat impatient expression on his face, Ji Yunqi knew with her toes that there was something wrong with this drink!
Knowing that this drink was problematic, she dared not drink it.
Just as she was helpless, a hand with distinct joints snatched the glass from the greasy man’s hand and then spilled it directly on the ground.
“Scram!”
“Who the hell are you, brat!”
The greasy man clenched his fist and angrily got up. At the same time, he took out a small knife from his body, intending to teach the brat who had stolen his prey a lesson. But before he could fully get up, he was met with a punch.
“Ah!”
Knocked to the ground with a punch, looking at the tall and extraordinary young man, the greasy man admitted that he was intimidated… With such demeanor, he wouldn’t be an ordinary person.
“Heh heh, since you want to play, I’ll leave it to you then!”
