Chapter 2

Shen Wei initially thought the system was generous, offering 1 million yuan right off the bat.

Now looking at the system's requirements, she realized why it gave 1 million yuan - it was afraid these people wouldn't be able to satisfy the demands even with 1 million yuan.

While Shen Wei was worrying, she noticed the rewarded beef, eggs, and two pounds of Shine Muscat grapes by her side.

She didn't know if it was just her impression, but these ingredients seemed fresher than what she had seen before.

She casually picked up a Shine Muscat grape, washed it, and put it in her mouth. "Wow," the floral aroma was accompanied by a sweet fruity fragrance.

The thick, sweet flesh filled her mouth with juicy sweetness, refreshingly quenching her thirst. One grape was not enough.

Shen Wei had eaten many Shine Muscat grapes before, but never had she tasted ones so refreshingly sweet. After finishing them, she felt extraordinarily energized.

While eating, the intense feeling of happiness washed over her again.

She now understood - the rewards from the system were the best of the best, no wonder the requirements for the teaching staff were also high.

After finishing the two pounds of Shine Muscat grapes, Shen Wei put the other ingredients in the fridge, and then proceeded to officially take over the kindergarten.

Now Shen Wei was in full command, ready to be ordered around by the system.

"Can you provide some candidate recommendations?" Shen Wei consulted the system.

As a recent college graduate, she didn't know any of these elites.

The system immediately started processing and soon locked in candidates for each category.

Shen Wei was speechless after seeing them - the chef candidate recommended was the head chef of the prestigious Jiangbei Grand Restaurant.

How could a top chef from such a luxurious hotel possibly settle for their small establishment?

Shen Wei just thought that.

Then she heard the system say, "Host, don't lose heart, everything is possible with effort."

Shen Wei realized the system's generosity with rewards meant she could use money to attract them.

"Let me see how much they're currently earning per month."

The system then showed her their current salaries.

The monthly pay wasn't very high.

It seems earning money is not easy these days.

Shen Wei immediately regained confidence.

"System. Double their salaries and immediately send out invitations to them."

"Got it, host." The system responded swiftly.

Shen Wei found this system secretary quite handy.

Shen Wei said, "Let me take you to have some porridge."

Children's stomachs are delicate, and after not eating for so long, he couldn't immediately have greasy foods.

But to her surprise, He Lingfeng hesitated. "Thank you, sister, but it's okay."

Then he tried to run away.

Shen Wei chased after him. "What's wrong? I'm not a bad person." She gave him a piece of candy.

This was He Lingfeng's first time having milk candy.

He was stunned, never having imagined something so sweet existed in this world. He didn't want to eat it, only lightly licking it with his small tongue.

Although he knew it wasn't good to take things from others, he couldn't resist the sweet temptation and gave it a lick.

Just one piece of candy brought him such happiness.

Shen Wei's eyes turned slightly red. "Wait here, I'll go buy you something to eat."

She saw there was a steamed bun shop not far away, probably where locals in this old street area often ate.

That piece of candy had let down his guard. "Thank you, sister. Let's go together."

He had grown up reading people's expressions since young, and although he didn't know Shen Wei, he could sense her kindness.

The two went to the steamed bun shop together, and Shen Wei bought him a small bowl of millet porridge and some small steamed buns.

The child wolfed them down, while Shen Wei gently said, "Slow down, they're all for you."

But how could the little wolf cub resist when faced with delicious food?

Shen Wei said, "I'll bring you tasty food from now on, okay?"

He Lingfeng replied, "But I don't know how to repay you."

It was surprising for a 5-year-old to say such things.

Shen Wei felt a pang in her heart. "You don't need to repay me."

"No, I owe you this. When I grow up, I'll repay you." The child said solemnly.

Shen Wei didn't want to brush off his sincerity, so she agreed for the time being.

As they were talking, a gloomy gust of wind blew over.

They looked in the direction it came from and saw an unkempt man with a scraggly beard, eyeing them greedily.

In that split second of eye contact, Shen Wei felt He Lingfeng's body tremble slightly.

Shen Wei's heart sank - this must be He Lingfeng's abusive father.

And now he had spotted them.
