"What? You want us to wear this? And stand around like wax figures on display, you big pervert, are you looking for a beating?"
"...You can’t beat me anyway."
"It doesn’t matter if I can beat you or not, I’m definitely not wearing it."
"Little sister Xiaoxuan."
"I’m not your sister."
"I’m not your granny either."
"Huo Xiaoxuan, are you going to wear it or not, just say it!" Fang Yi
Fang Yi had a headache, a severe headache. He had coaxed and deceived Huo Xiaoxuan to come here, but she refused to wear the maid outfit, which made Fang Yi feel extremely troubled.
And besides Huo Xiaoxuan, there was also Ding Miaoyan watching like a tiger eager to pounce, smiling yet not smiling; she too had been called over by Fang Yi with a phone call.
"I... I’ll wear it," Zhou Peilan said with a blush on her cheeks.
Fang Yi felt a surge of emotion in his heart; it was only at this moment that he realized who was treating him the best.
"Me too," another girl raised her hand and said, fair and pretty, it was the assassin from Cangyun, Han Xiuzhen.
"Hey, hey, hey, are you two mistaken? This guy wants you to wear maid outfits to attract bees and butterflies; he’s digging a hole for you to jump into, and you know it’s a hole, but you still jump?" Huo Xiaoxuan widened her eyes.
"Different strokes for different folks. Huo Xiaoxuan, if you’re not willing, I am," Zhou Peilan said.
"Oh my God, Peilan, you must have been caught in a door or something." Huo Xiaoxuan was wide-eyed and tongue-tied. Was this the Peilan she knew? But then she thought about it and it seemed right; after all, Peilan was even willing to use her mouth to please him in the office, so what would she have against wearing a maid outfit?
Huo Xiaoxuan then turned to look at Han Xiuzhen, only to see this Cangyun girl saying very seriously, "Whatever Fang Yi oppa says, I am willing to comply."
Huo Xiaoxuan narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at Han Xiuzhen’s chest: "What if he tells you to take off your clothes?"
Han Xiuzhen hesitated for a moment, her cheeks blushing as she said, "I... I’ll take them off myself."
This is just ridiculous, are you Cangyun women all missing a screw in your heads? He tells you to take off your clothes, and you don’t call the police, but instead, you say you’ll do it yourself; that’s just stupendously stupid!
Zhou Peilan and Han Xiuzhen went to change into their maid outfits, leaving only Huo Xiaoxuan and Ding Miaoyan behind. Fang Yi handed a maid outfit to each of them with both hands: "Give me a straight answer, will you help me out or not?"
Ding Miaoyan was silent for a moment, then said, "You owe me a favor." After that, Ding Miaoyan took the maid outfit and went to change.
But Huo Xiaoxuan still hadn’t moved.
"You won’t even do me this favor?" Fang Yi said.
"It’s... not that..." With no one else around, Huo Xiaoxuan felt even more uneasy. She pointed with her pale index finger first at the maid outfit in Fang Yi’s hands, then at her own chest, before looking down and saying with slight embarrassment, "This outfit... doesn’t fit."
Fang Yi just said "oh" and didn’t call her out on it. It wasn’t the maid outfit that was the wrong size; Huo Xiaoxuan’s chest was just too large, so Fang Yi immediately went to buy the largest size available.
No matter what, the maids were finally sorted out. There were four in total: Ding Miaoyan, Zhou Peilan, Huo Xiaoxuan, and Han Xiuzhen. When the four maids stood by the barbecue cart, they instantly became the most beautiful sight in the night market, outshining even the neon lights.
Each of the four women had their distinct charm: Zhou Peilan was the assertive type, Ding Miaoyan the cold beauty type, Huo Xiaoxuan was sweet and cute, and then there was Han Xiuzhen. Whenever someone passed by, Han Xiuzhen would sweetly say, "Try our barbecue skewer; welcome to taste it."
Even if the barbecue at the stall tasted terrible, the business definitely wouldn’t be bad!
As expected, business didn’t just do well; it exploded. They had originally planned only five tables, but now they were all filled up with more people waiting, keeping Yao Bo extremely busy.
Fang Yi took over to help out, telling Yao Bo to go and buy a few more tables and chairs.
Fang Yi was quick and knowledgeable about barbecuing, something he had mastered a long time ago. When he was in the mountains with the old man, he often caught wild boar and hare to barbecue, and the old man was very picky. Fang Yi was forced to work out his barbecuing skills.
When Fang Yi’s skewers hit the table, the customer took a few bites and immediately gave a thumbs up, saying, "Strong flavor! Delicious!"
Fang Yi smiled back and said that it would be even better tomorrow.
These ingredients were just ordinary ones. Fang Yi was confident that it would taste even better once he prepared his special seasoning mix.
In any case, Qingtian Barbecue kicked off its business on the right foot on its first day. It was an excellent start.
"Give me a skewer." A hand reached out thief-like and snatched a skewer, and Lin Shang, who hadn’t taken off her maid outfit, didn’t care about her image as she devoured a skewer in seconds. Chewing loudly, she said, "Same taste as before, not enough, I want more!"
Fang Yi gave Lin Shang a playful kick.
And the sweetly smiling Huo Xiaoxuan couldn’t help but move closer to Fang Yi. He handed her a skewer and said, "Finish up the work first, then you can eat your fill."
Huo Xiaoxuan giggled and replied, "That’s more like it. After all, I’m bringing you business, don’t forget to pay me."
Fang Yi laughed, "Don’t worry, you won’t miss out."
The atmosphere in front of the barbecue stall was harmonious and bustling with constant foot traffic. It was an excellent face-saver to have the attraction of beautiful women. Fang Yi now fully understood why car shows always hired attractive models to draw in crowds and generate buzz.
Not far from the barbecue stall, a woman with an icy demeanor stood amidst the crowd that came and went, all casting looks of surprise and admiration at her. Shen Binnan, however, paid no attention and simply looked at the barbecue stall.
The stall had a name: Qingtian Barbecue!
Watching the four women dressed as maids, greeting customers by the roadside, Shen Binnan wasn’t sure what she was feeling as she looked at the busy figure. She hadn’t expected that this guy would actually take her up on her challenge, willing to start a business with just ten thousand yuan and within half a year create a corporation as big as Longtu Group.
Was that even possible?
Shen Binnan dared not think. Even though she considered herself a business prodigy, she had still taken over Longtu Group from her father, Shen Hongyang. If she really had to start her own business, she admittedly wouldn’t dare to think about it.
But what about that man? He didn’t just talk or think; he actually went and did it, much to Shen Binnan’s surprise.
"I really want to see what you can make of this."
Shen Binnan didn’t approach, but instead turned and left, disappearing into the bustling night market that was as lively as daylight.
