NOVEL NEXT Chapter 30: Work Outfit = Maid Uniform?
Qi Han took the juice and took a deep sip.
The tall glass was already chilled by the ice cube’s coldness. As he drank the juice, the coolness spread through his lungs and into his body.
The juice was very sweet, and the system didn’t lie. It was much sweeter than the original Qinan juice, but the sweetness didn’t feel cloying. It carried a rich fruity aroma, giving a refreshing sensation.
Savoring it sip by sip, the Qinan juice was quickly finished.
“System, what about the remaining Qinan fruits?”
【The system is responsible for collection and uses them to feed other animals.】
‘So it can also be recycled, huh?’
“Then how much does a glass of Qinan juice cost?”
【1 Gold Coin per glass.】
The lowest price in the small shop just got updated.
Cucumber: I’m finally not the cheapest anymore!
Standing up, Qi Han’s eyes sparkled. “Come on, let’s start training!”
Making Qinan juice wasn’t difficult, except for the initial task of splitting the Qinan fruit in half without any juice dripping.
Qi Han thought the requirement was to prevent wastage, but the system’s answer surprised him.
【The juice from splitting the Qinan fruit in half comes from the squeezing of the fruit tissue at the cross-section. Since not all the fruit tissue at the cross-section is essential pulp, the juice from non-essential pulp contaminates the essential part of the fruit, preventing the Qinan juice from achieving perfection.】
The essential part referred to the ping-pong ball-sized central portion, while the other parts were mercilessly designated as non-essential pulp, even labeled as “contamination” by the system.
Nitpicking, just like the system.
Fortunately, Qi Han’s knife skills had recently reached a proficient level. The operation of the phantom looked magnificent, but once Qi Han personally took over, he quickly realized it was easier than he had imagined.
It was simply a matter of faster knife speed, keeping the blade aligned with the cutting direction without any deviation.
After spending about 5 days in the training space, Qi Han had already become proficient in the technique.
This was the fastest Qi Han had ever walked out of the training space. Even so, he made mistakes with the knife 3.000 times.
Looking at the additional line on the menu, Qi Han smiled.
For him now, the happiest moment was every time he walked out of the training space and saw a new item added to the menu.
Qi Han went back upstairs for a short rest and quickly returned at 04.30.
Opening the front door of the small shop, Fu Ya was already standing at the entrance.
Although it was still half an hour before the official opening, there were already many people lining up outside.
When the customers saw Qi Han opening the door, they thought he was opening early and eagerly tried to enter.
Unexpectedly, Qi Han only allowed a young girl to enter and then calmly closed the door.
Customers: ???
Inside the small shop, Qi Han glanced at Fu Ya, who was wearing the Shrek Academy uniform, and raised an eyebrow.
It didn’t seem appropriate for her to wear the Shrek Academy uniform as a waitress…
If Shrek Academy found out, it could cause trouble for him.
“Wait here for a moment. Let me fetch you a uniform, and you can think about what you’d like to eat.”
With that, Qi Han stood up and headed upstairs.
“System, you should be able to customize the waitress uniforms, right?”
【Yes, you can. Host, please choose a style.】
As the system spoke, dozens of different maid outfits instantly appeared in front of Qi Han.
‘Wow~ This low-cut one looks nice.’
‘Oh, and there’s a super short skirt style too.’
Wait, there’s even a bunny maid outfit. What a cultured system he got.
After browsing through the options, Qi Han calmly chose two of the most conservative ones.
I even considered having spare uniforms for changing. I’m such a thoughtful boss.
【Thank you for your patronage. The custom clothing costs 1000 Gold Coins per piece.】
What the hell?
‘System, are you robbing me? Why are these clothes so expensive?’
【This system though the Host knew about the price.】
“I know nothing of the sort! How could I possibly let you customize them if I knew they were this expensive?” Qi Han rolled his eyes in annoyance.
【So, does the Host still want them or not?】
Qi Han took out two 1000 Gold Coin bills. “Here you go!”
As the two bills disappeared into thin air, two brand-new maid outfits appeared in front of Qi Han. He turned around and walked downstairs.
Handing the maid outfits to Fu Ya, Qi Han explained, “These are the work uniforms. You can change them, and remember to wear them for work.”
In the Douluo Continent, there were no maid outfits, so Fu Ya didn’t find anything inappropriate about the dress. She carefully examined one of the maid outfits she had received.
‘Such a beautiful dress!’
Her eyes sparkled. The fabric of the dress seemed very high-quality, even surpassing the material of the most expensive dress she had ever seen, which belonged to Ying Shuang.
‘This should be expensive. Is it really a work uniform?’
Fu Ya couldn’t help but glance at Qi Han.
It fits perfectly. How did the boss know her measurements?
Her face felt a bit warm, so she quickly lowered her head.
Qi Han misunderstood and pointed to the stairs leading upstairs.
“Turn left upstairs, and there’s a guest room where you can change your clothes.”
“Ok–okay.” Fu Ya replied softly and hurriedly went upstairs.
“Oh, by the way, what would you like to eat?” Qi Han watched Fu Ya’s hurried figure going upstairs and asked.
“Ju–just a small portion of Egg Fried Rice!”
A small portion of Egg Fried Rice?
This girl is so modest. He said she can order anything, but she only wants a small serving of Egg Fried Rice?
He would add a portion of Braised Pork Stomach with Chicken for her.
She needs to eat more to grow.
Qi Han walked casually to the kitchen, started the fire, and began to cook. Both Fu Ya and he needed to eat.
When Fu Ya changed into her new clothes and shyly walked downstairs, Qi Han couldn’t help but stare in astonishment.
Soul masters often develop their bodies faster than ordinary people. Although Fu Ya was only 15 years old, she was already 165 centimeters tall with a well-proportioned figure, exuding a budding graceful charm of a young girl.
Her beautiful face, coupled with her long black hair, and wearing a fitted maid outfit, gave Qi Han only one word to describe her: stunning.
Earning someone of her beauty just for a mere 300 Gold Coins per month was a great deal.
“Let’s taste the dishes.” Qi Han pointed to a small table nearby, where there was a serving of Braised Pork Stomach with Chicken and a small portion of Egg Fried Rice.
Fu Ya blinked her eyes. “Boss, I only wanted the Egg Fried Rice.”
Since the boss treated her so well, she felt embarrassed to eat something too expensive. That’s why when Qi Han asked earlier, she only ordered a small portion of Egg Fried Rice.
Qi Han shook his head. “You’re still in your growing stage. Eat a bit more. Just don’t waste it.”
‘This…’
Fu Ya felt a bit touched and obediently nodded. She picked up the spoon and started savoring the Egg Fried Rice slowly.
She finished the portion of Egg Fried Rice quickly and couldn’t help but show a satisfied smile.
It had been a long time since she last visited this place, but Qi Han’s fried rice had always lingered in her mind. Finally, she had the chance to taste it again.
Thinking about being able to eat such delicious Egg Fried Rice every day in the future, Fu Ya felt like she was the happiest girl in the world.
