Chapter 15

"As long as you fulfill your duties as a staff member, you can naturally continue to live here," said Gu Wanyin."Yes!" Xu Shi nodded vigorously, "I definitely won't let you down, sister!"

"Alright, you can rest for a while now. If you're hungry, you can go to the cafeteria to eat, or take food from the cupboard, but don't waste any. Also, the food you take is only for you to eat."

"Understood!"

After leaving the staff dormitory, Gu Wanyin felt a bit hungry.

Conveniently, the noodle shop had opened, and the system told her it was next to room 2010 on the second floor.

Gu Wanyin went to the second floor with Cola and Hamburger, and sure enough, she saw a room appear next to room 2010. Through the glass on the wall, she could see about a dozen tables and chairs inside, including single, double, and four-person tables, with a spacious aisle.

"Sister, can people stay in this room 2010 now? Why do you always let guests check in according to the room number order?" Cola asked curiously.

Only Gu Wanyin could hear the conversations with the system, Cola and Hamburger didn't know about its existence.

"Because the rooms are opened one by one. Room 2010 hasn't been opened yet, so even though we can see this door, we can't let guests stay in it," Gu Wanyin explained patiently. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NøᴠᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"Oh, I see."

Although Cola didn't know how rooms were opened, he knew that whatever his sister said must be right, so he didn't ask any more questions.

The three of them walked into the Peace Noodle Shop together and sat down at a four-person table.

As soon as they sat down, a touch screen appeared in the middle of the table, displaying the menu and prices.

Indeed, the prices for the noodles in the shop were set by the system.

Gu Wanyin saw that a bowl of vegetarian rice noodles cost three points, beef or lamb noodles cost five points, and noodles with fish tofu, fish balls, or shrimp balls cost four points.

It seemed to be about the same as the prices she had set for the dishes in the cafeteria, not expensive at all.

Gu Wanyin really felt that the system was being very good to her and the guests.

Each table had sesame oil, chili oil, and vinegar, which guests could add freely without spending points.

Of course, after choosing the noodles, extra dishes could be added.

Adding meat cost two points per serving, adding balls cost one point per serving, and vegetables could be added for free, but waste was not allowed.

The noodles also came in different flavors, including non-spicy, mildly spicy, medium spicy, spicy and numbing, tomato, pickled vegetable, and so on.

Gu Wanyin chose a bowl of spicy and numbing beef noodles, Cola chose mildly spicy fish tofu noodles, and Hamburger chose tomato-flavored shrimp ball noodles.

Of course, the three of them didn't need to spend any points.

After they made their selections, a hole immediately appeared in front of each of them on the table, and a steaming bowl of noodles rose up, filling the hole as it ascended.

The noodles that appeared in front of each person were exactly what they had ordered, without any mistake.

"Wow!"

Although he had already witnessed the hotel's wonders, Hamburger couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Cola was much calmer, picking up his chopsticks and slurping a mouthful of noodles.

"Delicious!"

Gu Wanyin, after adding plenty of sesame oil and vinegar, also eagerly started eating.

The spicy and sour flavors, the smooth and chewy noodles, the tender and flavorful beef - it was too delicious!

She had loved eating rice noodles before her transmigration, and now she finished the entire bowl, even drinking all the soup.

After eating her fill, she discussed with the system in her mind: "System, shouldn't we hang a sign at the entrance of the noodle shop? Just write 'Peace Noodle Shop' on it, otherwise guests won't know what this place is for."

"Certainly, host," the system quickly replied.

Cola and Hamburger, having experienced over a year of the apocalypse, were very enthusiastic about food.

So they also finished their bowls of noodles completely.

After eating, they could just leave the bowls and chopsticks there, and the system would automatically clean up.

As they walked out of the Peace Noodle Shop, Gu Wanyin looked back and saw that, indeed, a sign had been hung at the entrance of the shop, with five large characters reading: "Peace Noodle Shop."

She wondered what other shops might appear in the future.

Gu Wanyin felt she could look forward to that.

They went downstairs, preparing to return to the main building. On the way, she asked Cola and Hamburger, "Did any guests come today?"

After Lin Ru had been cleared out of the hotel and blacklisted, she couldn't possibly come back to stay, so her room 204 was now empty and available for new guests.

"Yes, there were," Cola immediately perked up, "But they couldn't stay!"

"Why not?" Gu Wanyin asked, puzzled.

Could it be that they had no crystals? But any item could be exchanged for points. Worst case scenario, they could go out and pick up a few stones, which should be enough to exchange for points to stay one night, right?

"Because they were bad," Hamburger said in her childish voice, "They wanted to grab bread and milk, I didn't let them, and they even scolded me."

"That's right!" Cola said, "They even called us little brats, hmph!"

From Cola and Hamburger's vivid description, Gu Wanyin understood what had happened.

It turned out that after she left today, a man and a woman came in, probably a couple.

They were shocked by the hotel at first, then saw the cupboards in the lobby filled with food and wanted to rush over and take some.

Cola and Hamburger quickly stopped them, telling them to read the hotel rules first and that they needed to check in before they could take anything.

Who knew that the couple would glance at the rules and completely disregard them, even cursing at Cola and Hamburger as "little brats," then rushing to the cupboards and reaching out to grab bread and milk.

After that, the system unceremoniously kicked them out.

As for whether they would be teleported into a horde of zombies or to a remote, uninhabited place... that was unknown.

Gu Wanyin shook her head and sighed.

Why couldn't they just listen to Cola and Hamburger?

The hotel rules were written clearly, why couldn't they just read them properly?

Although resources were scarce in the apocalypse, shouldn't that make people more cautious?

They went downstairs and saw Xu Shi already sitting upright at the front desk, his gaze fixed intently on the entrance, as if afraid he might miss a single guest.

Gu Wanyin was amused by his demeanor and quickly said, "You don't need to be so careful, and it's already evening now. You can go back to rest and eat something."

"It's alright, sister... I mean, boss," Xu Shi said. "I'll work until midnight. But what if guests come in the middle of the night?"

"Don't worry about that, I'll handle it," Gu Wanyin said.

Although there hadn't been any middle-of-the-night guests yet, if it did happen, the system would wake her up even if she was asleep.

However, it seemed she needed to set specific working hours for Xu Shi, otherwise this little puppy was too tense.

She wasn't a heartless boss, she wouldn't exploit her employees!
