Chapter 35 Who doesn’t want to climb high branches?
Si Chen’s brows furrowed slightly, and he reminded her, lips pressed thin, "Your arm isn’t fully healed yet."
Tong Yao moved her injured arm slightly to show him, "It’s already scabbing over, there won’t be any major issues by next week. It’s pretty boring to stay at home all day, plus the possible gossiping. If I find a job, it won’t be boring."
Seeing her stubborn resolve, Si Chen didn’t continue to object, he casually asked, "What kind of job?"
"Serving food in the school canteen." Tong Yao pulled out her pre-prepared explanation. It’s more or less the same as her selling milk tea to students, either way, she would be working at a school.
Si Chen looked surprised, "Why don’t you find an easier job?"
Though Tong Yao being a university student isn’t anything special in Kyoto, in a place like Li City, having one student brings glory to the entire village, a very prestigious thing. It would be easy for her to find a good job. As Tong Yao was born privileged and grew up pampered by Tong Yaohui, her first job after college being in a canteen was indeed beyond Si Chen’s expectations.
It’s not that he looked down on this kind of work, but anyone who knew Tong Yao would find it unbelievable.
"Are you feeling embarrassed about me serving food in the canteen?" Tong Yao looked at Si Chen with wide blinking eyes, thinking that if he ever admitted it, she would start saving up her earned money and not give Si Chen a single cent, let’s see if he still dares to belittle her then.
