Chapter 443 You are here?
I will be taking a short break! Lol! I think I earned it!For the millionth time, the image of Xiao Hua massaging his body with the oil flashed in Yu Dong's head and of course, she dealt with it similarly as she had for the millionth time before, she banged her head on the wall of the bar and kept banging until her mind was cleared up and all she could feel was the throbbing headache from the hit that she has served herself.
There was nothing more awkward than having less than friendly thoughts about your business partner and friend… that's right, she and Xiao Hua were friends and friends weren't supposed to have such thoughts about each other but here she was thinking about his super tiny waist and silky soft skin—— Bang! She placed her palms on the wall and once again banged her head on the wall. Why can't she get rid of those images even after trying so hard? She shouldn't be thinking about Xiao Hua like that but she was and honestly, it wasn't her fault either, it's his!
Why did he have to say something so misleading to her when the two of them were alone in the night? Of course, her mind was going to stray… it shouldn't be but for some reason it was and she was getting a headache just thinking about it.
Was she really that attracted to Xiao Hua? But he wasn't even her type? He was so small and weak and though she liked his personality that was it … she liked the personality of many people but she didn't want to straddle them, now did she? God, what was wrong with her? She covered her face and crouched down in the hidden corner of her bar where she usually came when she was going through some crisis and currently she was going through a very terrible crisis one that can cause her legs to break.
" Maybe I am just too horny," she said after covering her mouth with one hand while still crouching in the corner. " It has to be one thing or another because there is no way I will be attracted to someone——" she didn't finish what she was saying as she looked down at the floor and covered her head. There was no point in thinking about it, it didn't matter whether she was attracted to Xiao Hua or not, she had four husbands and she took their responsibility, it was her duty to take care of them and not anyone else…no matter what, she couldn't let them down when three of them were gone and Fang Chi was pregnant.

With that, her head cleared up a little and she went to stand up straight when she heard a loud bang from behind, startled she jumped and was stunned to find Gu Ke Jin kissing one of the mers who worked as the server boy in their bar.
She was stunned but Gu Ke Jin who felt someone's presence in the corner was even more stunned, her eyes widened before she let go of the mer and whispered something in his ears, the mer giggled and then rushed out of the dark corner after pecking Gu Ke Jin's lips. After he was gone Gu Ke Jin raised her hands and said, " I can explain."
" There is no need to explain," said Yu Dong as she raised her hand and stopped Gu Ke Jin, she really wasn't in any mood to hear about Gu Ke Jin's love life when she was in a mess because of the same thing. " I get it, I should have known that this corner might be used as something more than a corner to be used for coping with crisis." After that, she stepped out of the blind spot and walked out. " Sorry, I disturbed your date or whatever it was."
" It was just a hook-up," said Gu Ke Jin with an eye roll as she followed Yu Dong into her office. " I am in my twenties and it's not surprising for me to have little affairs right?"
Yu Dong frowned as she paused in the middle of the track causing Gu Ke Jin to run into her back before she turned her head. " I thought that mers are supposed to keep their distance from women before getting married aren't they frowned upon if they were to lose their virginity mark?"
Gu Ke Jin stared at her like she was an alien speaking another language. " There are many ways to hook up without losing your virginity, all right and it's better to know someone before getting serious about them. I have seen my mother, she had eight husbands and each of them is worse than the other, thankfully my daddy knows how to keep a good rein on them and the house hasn't been ruined by them. I don't want the same which is why I want to have all the fun I can before getting tied down and who knows love might bloom for me."
" Right," Yu Dong drawled as she turned around and walked to her table. She should have known that this world was different from the one she lived in. "What a foolish question to ask," though she acted like a tomboy, Yu Dong was still a woman at heart upon hearing that Gu Ke Jin was hooking up with someone in the bar she couldn't stop herself as she asked, " So you are planning to settle down with him?"
" We just started dating a few days ago," answered Gu Ke Jin solemnly without missing a breath as she answered Yu Dong's question. " I haven't thought about it but he is kind of sweet, if everything stays all right, I might just settle down with him."
" And if it doesn't?" said Yu Dong.
" If it doesn't then it doesn't," shrugged Gu Ke Jin. " I have already cleared it up for him and I am not doing anything irresponsible as taking over his body when I can't give him what he wants, I am waiting for the right time, if he is the one then I will maybe take him in my house as my husband."
Yu Dong nodded as she pulled the daily budget book that recorded the earnings of the day and then said casually, " I am thinking of introducing another dish to our bar, I think it will go great with alcohol and non-alcoholic dishes as well, that's why I wanted to ask your opinion about it——"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe explained about the king crabs and mitten crabs that she wanted to introduce and Gu Ke Jin carefully listened before she nodded. " Sounds like a plan we can, think of something like a discount on that newly introduced dish or maybe you can teach the head chef of the kitchen how to cook that dish and we can introduce it as a whole in front of the customers, rich people like things that are and unique, I am sure that they will try it out if we emphasise on how different the newly introduced dish is when compared to the others dishes that they have been eating till now. This way we will be able to have a great haul but are you sure that no one will be able to catch crabs other than you?"
" I am sure," Yu Dong was fairly confident that no one in the village will be able to catch crabs, especially king crabs. First of all, they were hard to find around their town much less in the capital, it was all thanks to her spiritual energy that she was able to attract the crabs and of course, people can try going to the deep sea to catch crabs but under the lack of facility such as safety measures for a boat, it would be like diving in deep ocean without an oxygen cylinder on the back. " We will be the one who will be able to sell that dish and the rarer it is the higher the price can be set for it."
" I will think something about it then," said Gu Ke Jin as she slightly noted everything down in a notebook that she carried with her. " I will discuss it with others and have them give their suggestions as well, if their suggestions are better than mine then we will go with them." Then she pulled out the monthly expense book from the pile that was on Yu Dong's table and handed it to her. " Can you check it out and sign it? That way I will be able to pull money out of the locker and give it to Yin MingZheng, he will buy the rations for the next week."
Yu Dong nodded as she took the notebook from Gu Ke Jin and dipped the brush that was lying idly on the table before she placed it on the slip that needed to be signed.
" Oh Brother Hua? What are you doing here? Wasn't today your day off?"
Yu Dong's hand slipped and she ended up signing even the table.
And there went her heart jumping like a startled rabbit.
