I'm not a pet

Chapter 18
In the private room on the east end of the second floor of Ruyixuan, a young man was standing by the window, staring blankly at the endless stream of people on the street outside the window, as if he was looking for something.

When shopkeeper Qin knocked on the door with the medicinal herb, the young man recovered from his daze, stopped looking at the street, and responded to the knock.

"Come in!" The magnetic voice sounded like it was indistinguishable.

Shopkeeper Qin pushed open the door, saluted the man respectfully, and then hastily stepped forward and handed over the herbs with both hands: "My lord, look at this!" At the same time, he briefly talked about what happened downstairs.

The man held the medicinal herb in his slender white fingers for a while, then sniffed it close to his nose, and finally changed his low and depressed voice, and laughed heartily: "Bring me here!"

Shopkeeper Qin withdrew and hurried downstairs to call for Baozhu.

In the private room, the man still held the herb and murmured in a low voice, "You finally appeared! It's been a year, and I've been waiting for you here for a year..."

When shopkeeper Qin led Baozhu to the second floor, Baozhu realized that the first floor of Ruyixuan was just a dining hall for ordinary people. Although the decoration was thoughtful, it was not refined enough.Go up the stairs to the second floor, but there is something different, there is no noise from the hall on the first floor, private rooms are lined up on both sides of the corridor, and occasionally passing by the closed door, you can still hear the sound of the zither coming from the private room .

The second floor should be specially designed for high-end consumers, so the decoration materials and craftsmanship are more sophisticated than those on the first floor.

Walking to the door of the private room at the far east end, shopkeeper Qin stopped and motioned for Baozhu to go in by himself.

The door was ajar, and Baozhu pushed the door in, and the first thing that caught the eye in the private room was a hollow screen carved from rosewood, behind the screen was a low table carved from high-quality sandalwood, with four tables beside it. There is a small sandalwood chair with the same delicate pattern, and a delicate incense burner on the table is emitting light smoke, spreading the unique smell of agarwood to every corner of the private room.

In the room, a tall man stood with his back to the door, and turned around when he heard the movement.

The man has long hair that is smooth and drooping like fine silk satin, untie and loose behind his back. Under the delicate and feminine leaf eyebrows are a pair of narrow and coquettish eyes, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, and the red lips are lightly pursed, like a smile Feixiao, holding a bone jade fan in his jade-like hands, and holding the medicinal herb that Baozhu just took out from the bag.

The most conspicuous thing was the man's clothes. On the white-bottomed robe, there were various colorful flowers embroidered on her that she couldn't name. The flowers were so gorgeous!However, the man's delicate skin like white porcelain jade set off those colorful colors, which didn't look gaudy at all, but made him feel a bit more enchanting.

Baozhu stared blankly at the man, but her heart was boiling like a river: Why are all the men in Mafa Continent so beautiful, handsome, and evil...

Seeing Baozhu coming in, the man stared at her for a moment, and then the smile on his face was in full bloom, as enchanting as a midnight rose, and Baozhu immediately felt his heartbeat slow down by half a beat...

"Name!" The man lightly parted his lips.

"Ah?" Baozhu was still in a state of brain shutdown when she heard the man speak.

"Name?" the man repeated.

"The Jewel."

"age?"

"24."

The man raised his beautiful eyebrows, Baozhu immediately thought of something, and quickly said, "It's only six years before I'm 24."

"You can't afford Ruyixuan's consumption? No money?" The man changed the subject, and suddenly hit the nail on the head.

When Baozhu heard this, her froze brain recovered.Thinking that he was penniless and still owed thirty coins, he immediately put away the little stars in his eyes and entered the role of a poor debtor.

"I came out in a hurry, I forgot to bring money..."

"Where did you get the Spirit Tongue Grass?" The man asked, raising the herb in his hand.

"This...it was randomly picked on the road. I don't know what it is." Baozhu replied vigilantly.

The first half of the sentence was made up by her, and she would definitely not say that it was brought out by her from Qingxi Village; the second half of the sentence is the truth.Qingxi Village is full of such grasses, and she has eaten these unknown grasses every day for a year, never thinking about what they are and what effects they have.

The man didn't ask any more questions, but his eyes seemed to glance at her left wrist unintentionally.Since Baozhu left Qingxi Village, she has been wearing the wristband Bai Yu gave her, and the flame spirit rope is hidden under it.

The man's eyes finally fell on the small bag on her right shoulder, and asked, "What are your specialties?"

"Ah?" Baozhu didn't keep up with his rhythm again, a little surprised.

"I ask you, what will you do?" The man patiently asked the question in another way, and seeing that Baozhu was still looking at her in surprise, he said, "You owe me thirty coins, and you have to pay them back." Me?"

"Aren't these herbs enough for thirty coins?" Baozhu asked weakly.Bai Yu said that these medicinal herbs might be useful to her, so how much did she think they would be worth?
"To me, these are worthless." The man raised his eyebrows again, and then said: "Since you have nothing to mortgage, you must stay and work for me until you pay off the debt."

"..."

"So, what will you do?"

Baozhu suddenly felt that beauties and handsome guys all have a dark heart...

Baozhu didn't answer.Not because she didn't want to answer, but because she was also thinking about what she would do.

In reality, after graduating from Baozhu University, she stayed in school to work directly, and had just worked as a counselor for less than a year.Every day, besides making those tables that make her feel dizzy, such as the statistical table of poor students, the statistical table of student awards and awards... she talks endlessly with students, their grades, and their psychological problems... Outside of work, she It's nothing more than staying in the dormitory, playing "Magic Trail", reading books and sleeping.

After inexplicably transmigrating, she became a pig who didn't have to do anything for another year...

"Why don't I help you wash the dishes?" Baozhu asked the creditor weakly.

"The most common bowl or plate in Ruyixuan is worth more than [-] coins. Are you sure you want to wash the dishes?" The man tried to persuade.

"That..." Baozhu quickly calculated in her mind. After sitting in Ruyixuan for a while, she owed [-] coins, and was forced to pay it back. If she accidentally broke the bowl and smashed the plate while washing the dishes , then this debt is really paid off.Well, all work with bowls and plates can't be done!

"How about I be the cashier?" Baozhu said quickly.Although there is no Marfa Continent that does not use a calculator, at least I have learned abacus in school before, so it should be no problem to collect accounts.

"Someone has cashed out."

"Then...how about I greet the guests?"

"Okay! That's it! All board and lodging is included, the arrears and your board and lodging expenses will be deducted from your salary. The probationary period... half a year first!" The man readily agreed, as if this was exactly what he was waiting for. the result of.

"By the way, when you see me in the future, call me Boss Hua! I am the boss of Ruyixuan."
