Chapter 104

"Liu Tianxian, just be content with what you have."

"At least as a dishwasher, you're sheltered from wind and rain—surely that's better than being out in the sun, right?"

Liu Tianxian shot him a glare and said, annoyed.

"You make it sound easy. How about we swap? This bowl's yours?"

"You don't know those aunties in the back kitchen—they'd jump at the chance to set you up with any man they find."

"I really can't take it anymore."

"Swap it is!" Before Su Meng could speak, his teammate Boss Yang had already jumped in.

"We don't even know what weird prop we'll draw later."

"Switching to a bowl and being a dishwasher right now doesn't sound bad at all."

Liu Tianxian gave a cold laugh and said lightly.

"From what I know of those back-kitchen aunties, if you two go together, they'll definitely try to set you two up."

"So… are you sure you want to swap with me?"

What? Boss Yang stiffened, instinctively sneaking a glance at Su Meng, and suddenly felt her cheeks flush.

If some aunty really tries to set us up… then what do I do?

Su Meng saw this and chuckled.

"Alright, we still don't know what we'll draw. Let me draw first and we'll see."

Saying so, he walked up to the box and casually drew out a slip of paper.

He glanced at it, couldn't help but pause slightly, and waved it at Xiao Yueyue.

"Xiao Yueyue, this prop really suits you."

"Really?" Xiao Yueyue took the slip, glanced at it, and immediately jumped up in delighted surprise.

"Clappers! It's actually clappers! That's my old trade!"

"Su Meng… oh no, Brother Su! Brother Meng! You're my own brother!"

"How about we swap?"

"Swap!" Before Su Meng could speak, Boss Yang had already cut in.

"We don't know how to play clappers anyway—if we really took this, wouldn't it be ruined?"

"Even being a dishwasher is better than just standing there staring!"

She scrambled for excuses, and without waiting for Su Meng to speak, she snatched the bowl right out of Liu Tianxian's hands.

Liu Tianxian was stunned and instinctively reminded her.

"Boss Yang, if those aunties…"

Boss Yang puffed out her chest and said proudly.

"Don't worry, I will definitely reject Su Meng!"

"And the aunties will surely realize that I and Su Meng together aren't a good match!"

Reject him? Everyone was baffled.

What did Su Meng do to you that you have to reject him?

And… many people's gazes drifted back and forth between the two faces.

One handsome and dashing, the other fair as a flower—no matter how you looked, they seemed like a perfect match, a golden boy and jade girl. How could they not be a good match?

Those aunties wouldn't be that blind, would they?

Wait, why do I think those two are a good match?

……

Su Meng smiled and held up the bowl in his hand.

"Fine, swap it is. This bowl is actually a pretty good thing."

"By the way, Tianxian'er, who told you that getting a bowl means being a dishwasher?"

"Anything related to a bowl works!"

"For example, you could be a restaurant server."

"You could sell bowls at the supermarket."

"You could balance a bowl on your head and be an acrobat."

"Youv】 You could even go to the antique market and moonlight as an amateur antique appraiser."

"Tell me, why are you so stuck on being a dishwasher?"

Huh?

As Su Meng spoke, Liu Tianxian was instantly dumbfounded, her little face turning redder and redder.

In her heart, she was even more annoyed with herself.

What's wrong with me today? My mind's gone blank?

The moment I see a bowl I think of dishwashing, then of the banquet, then of that wedding, then of having children early…

Boss Yang, however, grew happier and happier as she listened, her face blooming into a flower.

"I knew you had plenty of tricks up your sleeve, Su Meng. Following you is definitely a path to the future."

"So tell me, what do we do? How do we do it?"

"How to do it…" Su Meng thought for a moment, then suddenly grinned, a strange expression crossing his face.

Then he tossed the bowl in his hand onto the ground.

The bowl hit the floor with a crisp sound and shattered into several pieces.

Su Meng casually picked up two of the larger shards, then shoved the battered bowl bottom into Boss Yang's hand.

"A broken bowl... isn't that hint obvious enough?"

"Boss Yang, the two of us will play beggars — I'll take you panhandling down the street!"
