The first principle of owning a restaurant: be friendly to people, and wear a smile at all times!

Mo Yangyang had long solved the problem with her temper. She had learned to be slick and sly when dealing with all kinds of people.

If the customers had any complaints about the restaurant, she would be the first to handle them. It was already part of her instincts.

Therefore, she did not even have time to reflect on the question. She subconsciously answered, “I’m fine…”

Following that, Mo Yangyang shuddered as her hair stood on its end.

What the hell did I just do? Did…did I just speak?

Mo Yangyang seriously had the urge to slap herself in the face. How could she mess up in a situation like this!?

Mo Yangyang’s hand began to tremble slightly, not because of the weight of the takeaway. She was seriously afraid.

She had spoken. Would Xie Xize recognize her?

Mo Yangyang lowered her head and bit her lips. She was praying in her heart, Please don’t let Fifth Elder Xie recognize me. I still have parents and a child to take care of. My family is relying on me!

The bodyguard and the assistant gasped. What was the professor up to today? Why was he being so casual? He even had time to be concerned about a delivery girl? He was being concerned about her, wasn’t he?

It did not make any sense! The Fifth Elder Xie they knew was never this kind-hearted!

Xie Xize was expressionless a moment ago, but he suddenly had a faint smile, displaying his outstanding charm.

He raised his hand and received the plastic bag containing over a dozen takeaway boxes from Mo Yangyang and said, “Thank you.”

Mo Yangyang shuddered. She quickly withdrew her hand and lowered her head further.

She could not tell if it was her imagination or not, but Xie Xize’s finger did caress the back of her hand while he was receiving the takeaway.

She could still feel the heat left by Xie Xize’s finger on her hand. It was a little numb…

However, she was still overwhelmed by fear!

The bodyguard was dumbfounded. He wanted to say, Professor, the takeaway is for me. Why…why are you thanking her? Shouldn’t I be doing it instead?

Hang on, why was the professor being such a busybody today?

The others exchanged glances with one another. They had no idea what was going on!

Mo Yangyang’s heart pounded heavily. She had delivered the food. Her only thought was to leave as soon as possible.

She took two steps back and bowed slightly to the bodyguard that had ordered the takeaway. She turned around and left.

She would be running by now if she was not worried that it might make her look more suspicious.

She heard Xie Xize’s voice when she had only taken a few steps, “Wait…”

Mo Yangyang froze in her tracks. Fear had surrounded her like darkness. She had nowhere to run to!

Was she busted? What should she do?

Her lips were about to bleed from biting. Was the peaceful life she had worked so hard to maintain about to come to an end?

A delicate hand reached out in front of her, holding a silk handkerchief, followed by a voice, “The rain is getting into your eyes. Here, use this.”
