“Tell me, how is it? How is it? How is it?!!”
Lin Na’s gossiping eyes from across the table were quite exasperating for Wen Han.
“One is a cunning narcissist, the other is an annoying do-gooder. I don’t fancy either of them,” Wen Han said while hugging her daughter beside her. “If I have to choose a man, I won’t pick from these two.”
“But they both seem quite good!” Lin Na pondered aloud. “They’re both handsome and have great charisma. From their attire and lifestyle, they must come from wealthy backgrounds.”
“Coincidentally, don’t I have all that too?” Wen Han shook her head. “Since I already have it, why would I need someone else to provide it?”
“Hmm… Wen Han, you truly are different from other girls.”
“Not a girl,” Wen Han corrected. “I am a unique existence, one-of-a-kind!”
“Fine, fine! Every time you start talking like this, you become self-absorbed.” Lin Na helplessly stuck the straw in her drink.
Wen Han suddenly had an idea and her eyes sparkled. “Where’s your celery?”
“Pfft!” The water in her mouth spurted out, and Lin Na’s face changed. “Don’t mention that creepy guy.”
“What happened?”
“After the class reunion, he added me on the group chat. He keeps messaging me every day, even after I’ve clearly refused him, and still tries to flatter me! He also sends me his photos frequently. Yesterday, he even sent me his bedsheet, saying it was covered with his semen… I can’t talk about it anymore!”
“…That’s a bit disgusting.” Wen Han frowned. “This kind of scum is a disgrace to men.”
“Indeed, let’s not talk about this trash.” Lin Na sighed. “Let’s eat our food!”
…
The next day, at the Recycling Station.
Slam!
Chaos parted, and Wen Han in her white-collar uniform sat on the desk.
“Little Lin, what did you want to talk to me about last night?”
Putting down the book108 Good Deeds, Lin Wu Ju slowly raised his head. “Now you’re willing to find me?”
“I said, don’t use rhetorical questions!!!”
“…Facing this fearless little witch, Lin Wu Ju really felt helpless.”
But what he liked most about her was exactly this trait: “Didn’t you need a mission? Here it is.”
“Oh? What mission?”
Lin Wu Ju stretched out his finger, and two files materialized between his fingers, which he tossed over.
Wen Han caught them with a slap and frowned after flipping through them. “Huh? Zhao Meng Sheng and Zhou Bin?!”
“That’s right, you know them both,” Lin Wu Ju leaned back on the chair.
“Why two people?”
“Is it because you don’t like it?” Just as he spoke, he noticed Wen Han’s gaze, and he helplessly spread his hands. “This mission was specially arranged by me. As I said, the entry-level actions are simple, and I even helped.
“I didn’t ask you to help.”
“Okay, consider it meddling.” Lin Wu Ju shook his head. “I chose people you know because it’s easier to handle, but if it’s too easy, you won’t get any training. So this time, I arranged for two people, so you can take on greater responsibilities in the future.”
“…How do you pay for two people?” Wen Han turned her eyes, getting straight to the point.
She only cared about the money!
Lin Wu Ju grinned. “You still value money the most.”
“No, I want money, power, and strength… all of it!”
“Good, that’s the black witch I know.” Lin Wu Ju smiled in satisfaction. “I said before, twenty thousand per soul.”
“So that’s forty thousand?” Wen Han glanced at the documents in her hand, immediately smiling. “Looks like I can’t quit my job at the bar; my illness… should be almost cured.”
“…Illness?” Lin Wu Ju looked up in confusion. “You’re sick…”
Whoosh.
Before he could finish, Wen Han vanished again like the wind.
…
“Zhou Bin and Zhao Meng Sheng are actually one of the souls that escaped from the demon world?!”
Back home, Wen Han looked at the two documents thoughtfully.
Zhou Bin was the bar owner, who had always liked her, but she wasn’t interested in a man in his forties, not even in playing around with him.
Most importantly, she needed to earn money from the bar at the time, so keeping a casual relationship was best.
As for Zhao Meng Sheng… this guy shouldn’t be too hard to deal with. After just two meetings, he was already in disarray due to her.
Wen Han quietly placed Zhou Bin’s document on top, mentally labeling the difficulty of these two people.
“It’s time to work hard for the forty thousand!”
…
Night.
The bustling metropolis remained unchanged despite the departure of a couple or a murder case.
The bar where Wen Han worked continued its nightly revelry, packed with people.
“Hey, where’s that pretty female singer you guys used to have?”
“Yeah! We came specifically to see her. Why aren’t you letting her perform?”
“Get off stage! Get off stage! Get off stage!”
Inside the bar, drunk guests causing a commotion, a flustered singer on stage, servers constantly calming guests, and other guests showing annoyance…
In the midst of the chaos, the sound of high heels clicked sharply.
Everyone froze for a moment.
As the first person quieted down, the entire bar soon fell silent, everyone turning their heads.
Click! Click! Click!
Amidst everyone’s watchful eyes, the bar door slowly opened.
Wearing that signature red dress, stepping on red stilettos, golden long hair cascading over her shoulders and chest.
Wen Han walked in with her handbag, calmly smiling at everyone staring at her. “Old Di, long time no see~”
Barkeep Old Di froze. “Aren’t you sick?”
Wen Han smiled without answering, stepping into the bar.
Those few drunk guests suddenly cheered.
“You’re better now, so you came back to work?” She left a remark as she passed Old Di, catching his attention.
Wen Han lifted her lips. “Where’s the boss?”
“Inside.”
“Thanks.”
Old Di was gay, so her charm had no effect on him.
Wen Han had no interest in teasing him and quietly slipped into the depths of the bar amidst everyone’s gaze.
…
Knock knock knock!
“Come in.”
After hearing the voice, Wen Han pushed the door open.
Zhou Bin, who was originally looking at his computer, suddenly paused and stood up.
“Wen Han? Are you… feeling better?”
The forty-something Zhou Bin carried an air of maturity, with many wrinkles on his face.
However, due to running the bar and interacting with young people often, his fashion sense was quite trendy, though Wen Han found it somewhat odd.
“Much better.” She pulled out a chair. “Can I sit?”
“Of course!” Zhou Bin laughed and sat down, hesitating before raising his head. “I heard recently that Qin Long, a regular customer at the bar, got into some trouble.”
Wen Han lowered her head. “Hmm.”
“Did you get affected by it, so…” Zhou Bin paused. “Don’t stress too much, it has nothing to do with you.”
“Don’t worry, boss, I won’t.” Wen Han stuck out her tongue. “I haven’t been working for days, I feel embarrassed.”
“That’s fine.” Zhou Bin waved his hand. “Wen Han… although nowadays young people are wild, and bars are places of conflict, I hope you don’t get entangled in messy relationships.”
“I won’t!”
“That’s best.” Zhou Bin nodded. “I never forced or asked you to accompany customers, this is to protect you.”
“Mm-hm!” Wen Han kept nodding. “Boss, I understand, so thank you very much!”
“It’s nothing.” Zhou Bin smiled faintly, then paused. “Actually… you know how I feel.”
