Chapter 386: Handsome shop manager, beautiful shop assistant?

"Ah——————!"

Following a sharp scream that rang out in Aunt Wenren Restaurant, Shengzai, who was still sleepy, quickly retreated out of the bathroom, his face filled with embarrassment.

Recalling the scene he had seen a few minutes ago, Shengzai even felt like he hadn't woken up yet.

'So it turns out that when fat reaches a certain level, it really does float in water!'

"Shengzai, you guy, don't you know you should knock and check if there's anyone inside before entering the bathroom!"

Hearing Minezaki's indignant voice from the bathroom, Shengzai, knowing he was in the wrong, said apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot just now that there's another person of the opposite sex living in the house now.

And the room you're staying in should have an independent washroom, right? So usually at this time in the morning, I'm the only one who uses this shared bathroom."

Inside the bathroom, Minezaki, who was still soaking in the tub, said indignantly after hearing Shengzai's explanation, "That room does have an independent washroom, but it doesn't have a bathtub."

"But I didn't expect that people usually take baths early in the morning... Anyway, I'm sorry.

To prevent such a blunder from happening again, let's discuss the bathroom usage times later."

Because he wasn't the one who suffered the loss, although Shengzai didn't feel he was the one in the wrong, seeing that Minezaki had provided such a huge benefit early in the morning, Shengzai chose to apologize first.

Hearing Shengzai's apology, Minezaki's expression looked much better.

Don't be fooled by how boldly she spoke last night like a seasoned veteran; in reality, she has spent these years striving in her career, focused solely on climbing the ladder, and hasn't even had a single boyfriend.

Although she had thought before that as a woman living under the same roof as a single man like Shengzai, there would inevitably be some inconveniences.

But she didn't expect that on the very first day, she would be seen completely by the other party!

Fortunately, the moment Shengzai walked in, she let out a scream, and the former, after being startled by her, only took a fleeting glance before quickly fleeing the bathroom.

It was only for that brief moment, so Shengzai shouldn't have seen much, and since this matter was partly her own fault, Minezaki ultimately chose to forgive Shengzai.

However, what Minezaki didn't know was that for an ordinary person, the eyes indeed couldn't capture much in a brief glance.

But for Shengzai, who possessed super dynamic vision, that fleeting glance was already as clear as day!

He not only saw many things clearly, but the brief few seconds were even cut into multi-frame style images, all stored in the encrypted hard drive of his brain.

At six o'clock, Aunt Wenren Restaurant officially opened for business. Compared to the situation of being on the verge of bankruptcy before, now, before Shengzai's restaurant even opened, quite a few people were already gathered at the entrance waiting for breakfast.

There was no help for it; because the reputation had already spread, business at Aunt Wenren Restaurant was getting better and better. Now, it wasn't just neighbors from the vicinity, but even people from the distant city center came here every day by reputation.

And today, the regular customers waiting for the restaurant to open were surprised to find that, besides Shengzai the owner, there was an extra beautiful figure in the restaurant today.

At first, Shengzai was still worried that with Minezaki's previous overbearing attitude, asking her to do a good job as a waitress would be simply making things difficult for her.

But when business officially started, Shengzai realized he had completely overthought it.

Minezaki Yae entered her role very quickly. Relying on her super high beauty and hot figure, she gained the praise of a crowd of new and old customers in a short time.

No one would dislike a beautiful woman who was pleasing to the eye, especially when this beautiful woman also had a bottomless cleavage.

It was also thanks to Minezaki Yae that business at Shengzai's restaurant was more than 20% better than before, which led this guy to want to shorten the daily business hours even more now.

And Minezaki, who had been busy all day, finally understood why Shengzai chose to close at six in the evening before.

Honestly speaking, because she had also climbed up from being a small-time order runner, she felt her physical strength was not much worse than the average man.

But after being busy all day, Minezaki was already drenched in sweat. If Shengzai hadn't taken over quite a bit of the work halfway through, she even felt she would have collapsed from exhaustion.

And it was because of this that Minezaki discovered that Shengzai's physical fitness was truly awesome.

Compared to her, who was just taking orders and serving dishes, cooking was the real physical labor. Yet, in such a situation where the restaurant was packed with customers all day, Minezaki actually saw a trace of fatigue on Shengzai's face.

Near evening, when the time hit six o'clock, Shengzai and Minezaki couldn't wait to hang up the "Closed" sign.

Now, Minezaki, with her whole body aching, no longer had the energy from the morning and just wanted to go upstairs quickly and have a good bath.

However, just as they were planning to close the shop, a figure rushed into Shengzai's shop again.

Minezaki, dragging her exhausted body, just wanted to force a professional fake smile and say that their shop was already closed, but she didn't expect the red-haired young man in front of her to see her and directly show a surprised expression, saying: "It's you again, woman! Don't tell me that after losing last time, you still aren't willing to give up?

Shengzai, Shengzai, your house has been stolen again! That woman from last time is here again. Hurry and look at the ingredients in your shop; have they been sabotaged again?"

Shengzai, who was originally tidying up in the back kitchen and preparing some dinner, heard Yukihira Soma's shouting and suspiciously poked his head out from the serving window.

Then, when he saw the confronting Yukihira Soma and Minezaki, he naturally understood what was going on in an instant.

"She's not here to cause trouble. She's my shop's waitress now, working in my restaurant."

Hearing Shengzai's words, Yukihira Soma was completely dumbfounded. Clearly, he hadn't expected that the woman who was still overbearingly telling them to close the shop a few days ago would suddenly transform into a waitress at Shengzai's restaurant.

"Now? According to your restaurant's business hours, aren't you not closed yet? How do you have time to come over to my place?"

"Let's say it beforehand: if you want to have another Shokugeki duel, then forget it. I'm really exhausted today."

Honestly, Shengzai somewhat regretted hiring Minezaki Yae as a waitress, because with a beautiful waitress with a huge chest in the shop, business in the shop had become even better.

Although Minezaki did indeed share quite a bit of the work for him, Shengzai didn't feel much more relaxed than usual.
