Chapter 346: Shazhu Has Lost All Face and Skin

Everyone turned their gaze toward Teacher Ran.

In an instant, everyone also thought her image was so imposing.

They all felt that working here was the right choice.

Especially the security guards.

They were moved beyond words.

They almost knelt down, swearing to serve Teacher Ran for life.

Shazhu glanced at Teacher Ran's back, then at Ma Hua, opened his mouth, but said nothing......

Liu Lan gave Shazhu a quick glance, sighed lightly, and walked into the hotel.

Then the Manager and the hotel staff followed.

Soon, only Shazhu and Ma Hua remained.

Shazhu still had his mouth open, standing there dumbfounded.

Ma Hua sighed inwardly and asked:

"Master, what should we do now?"

Shazhu's mind was in constant conflict.

Now he and Qin Huairu were almost at the point of tearing each other's faces off.

Bang Geng Xiao Dang and Huaihua were unreliable.

Of course, that wasn't the main issue.

The main point was that he realized he was growing more fond of Teacher Ran.

If he were with Teacher Ran, such a huge hotel would essentially be his.

Then living in luxury afterward would be a given.

But he had already blurted out the big lie.

If he gave in now, how could he survive later?

Who would still obey him?

After thinking, he turned his gaze toward Ma Hua.

Ma Hua hurriedly asked, "Master, you say, what should we do now?"

"I'll follow your lead."

Shazhu glared at Ma Hua and thought silently:

"You, who rides a horse, can you ever understand me?"

"Can't you give me a way out?"

Seeing him silent and still glaring, Ma Hua became terrified and dared not look at him again.

After a moment, Shazhu said:

"Ma Hua, you go in first."

"Let me think it over properly."

"I always feel that leaving like this seems too irresponsible, right?"

Ma Hua: "Indeed, you once told me that the boss invested in this hotel, which could be said to fulfill your dream."

"If you leave, it would be not only irresponsible but also a betrayal of the boss."

Shazhu: "Then we don't leave?"

Ma Hua replied happily, "Of course we won't leave; we won't miss a chance to test ourselves against a little security guard, right?"

Shazhu looked around, saw no one, and then lowered his voice:

"Then I'll go in and get busy; you tell the boss for me."

Ma Hua exclaimed excitedly, "Alright, I'm going right now."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the hotel.

Shazhu let out a long sigh, shook his head, and followed inside.

He now felt very embarrassed.

But to win Teacher Ran's heart, he could only be thick‑skinned.

When he appeared in the back kitchen, everyone was involuntarily stunned.

Because everyone knew him fairly well, and given his character, they thought that since the boss gave him no face, he was definitely leaving.

No one expected him to show up before them, especially now wearing a chef's uniform.

Liu Lan sneered, "Yo, Shazhu, you're back again."

Shazhu furrowed his brows and barked, "Do you not want to work anymore?"

Liu Lan: "You, you're just like a child."

"I think the boss is right."

"Why are you being so petty?"

"Why are you competing with the people under you?"

Shazhu, angry, said, "Liu Lan, don't think that just because I'm back, my words are ineffective."

"If you dare keep babbling, I'll quit this job and fire you as well."

Liu Lan hurriedly said, "Fine, fine, I won't recruit you, okay?"

"Actually, I'm doing this for your own good."

Shazhu: "Get lost!"

Liu Lan smiled and walked away.

Shazhu, he's gotten so shameless nowadays.

Liu Lan silently thought.

Afternoon.

Xu Damao made a phone call at a small roadside stall.

Hello, is this the Investigation Section of the Shared Commerce Bureau?

Hey, hello!

I'm reporting a smuggled imported television, three forty-foot containers.

Yes, the unloading point is Transportation Yard Four.

The time is tonight at nine.

Who I am doesn't matter, comrade.

This is an anonymous report.

That's it.

After hanging up, Xu Damao looked around and muttered to himself:

Alright, now there's some excitement to watch.

Returning home, Xu Damao moved the table out, sat at the doorway sipping tea while watching Liu Haizhong's closed door.

Suddenly.

Yu Haitang appeared.

Xu Damao frowned and said, "Oh, you actually came back."

Is the restaurant business not doing well?

Yu Haitang smiled, sat beside Xu Damao, and asked:

Xu Damao, are you waiting to see my joke?

Xu Damao: "No, not at all. We're still legally married, right?"

Since we're legally married, how could I laugh at your joke?

But I just don't understand why you left home.

Yu Haitang: "How did I leave home? Don't you understand yet?"

I said I wanted to open a restaurant, but you wouldn't allow it.

You didn't support me either, so I had to go out and work alone.

Xu Damao: "Do you know why I don't want you to open a restaurant?"

Because Shazhu is a cook.

If you open a restaurant, you need a cook.

Whenever I see a cook, I think of Shazhu.

Just thinking of Shazhu makes me feel unhappy.

Now you know why I won't let you open a restaurant, right?

Yu Haitang laughed and said, "Then if that's the case, you wouldn't need to eat when you go out."

Because all the food outside is made by cooks.

Xu Damao: "That's not the same."

By the way, what brings you back today?

Yu Haitang: "Don't you want me to come back?"

Xu Damao stared, then said, "Of course I do, I still like you."

If you're willing to live a good life with me, I welcome it.

I'd love that.

Yu Haitang: "Well, that's settled then."

You also said, at our age, we should just live together.

As long as you don't interfere with my career, I'm still willing.

Xu Damao: "Fine, then we'll each handle our own money."

Yu Haitang: "Hmm, that suits me just fine."

By the way, what are you doing sitting here?

Xu Damao looked left and right, made sure no one was around, then lowered his voice and whispered:

I'm waiting to watch the show.

Yu Haitang frowned and asked:

What show?

Xu Damao whispered, "Someone's partnering with me in business, but they're disloyal."

Fine, I'll just watch how they get their comeuppance.

Yu Haitang: "Who is it?"

Xu Damao: "Keep it down."

Don't let anyone hear.

Yu Haitang glanced at Liu Haizhong's door, then whispered:

Is it Liu Haizhong?

Xu Damao: "Come, have some seeds, let's quietly watch the show."

By the way, did you really come back this time for nothing?

Yu Haitang: "What do you say?"

Xu Damao: "You run a restaurant, you're not short of money?"

Yu Haitang laughed: "What? Xu Damao, could it be you want to give me money?"

Xu Damao: "You dead woman, isn't it right to give you money?"

"You are my wife."
