Doing All Kinds Of Tricks Everyday Chapter 1

　　Penglai Xiang Restaurant[1] is located in the most remote alley in B City, covering an area of ​​more than 50 square meters. Ever since it opened 10 years ago, it never got renovated even though it looks old and shabby.

　　Compared to the blooming western restaurants and Korean restaurants in B city, it really doesn't scratch the surface. However, the case is the restaurant can still stand after years of opening.

　　The owner of the shop is a 60-year-old man with gray hair, known as Boss Xu.

　　At nine o'clock in the morning, Boss Xu opened the store door on time. As soon as the door opened, he saw an unusual young man with handsome features standing at the door, wearing a hooded sweater and jeans, like a college student just entering society.

　　He thought he was a guest, so he smiled and gestured for him to go in, then started sticking the recruitment ad to the wall.

　　The young man didn't go in, but instead looked at the recruitment information he posted on the wall.

　　Boss Xu gave him a glance: “Daring not to come and eat, but to find a job?”

　　The young man nodded shamefully, he had an innocent expression like that of a domesticated animal, giving him a favourable opinion. Boss Xu tore off the job advertis.e.m.e.nt again with a smile.

　　”Come in with me.”

　　Boss Xu greeted him in and sighed, “When you're old, you have little power to do things. Sooner or later,  it will happen to you young people.”

　　The young man looked at him with hesitation, and was embarra.s.sed to say, “Boss, as soon as I entered the city my wallet was stolen. I was thinking of cleaning dishes for you. It would cover me a meal. I will go to find relatives tomorrow.”

　　Boss Xu sighed as he breathed out: “Aiyah, how could a young man now be willing to stay in my small restaurant for a long time, just work one day and I'll keep you full.”

　　After ten o'clock, guests came in one after another. Although there weren't many people, all of them were in suits and leather shoes, looking out-of-place in this small restaurant.

　　Di Zongting set foot into the underdeveloped restaurant and found a spare seat to sit down.

　　In the kitchen, Boss Xu explained to the youth while cooking: “Although my restaurant is small, the menu was created by my ancestors, and the taste ah. Even those five-star hotels may not be comparable. So patrons come to eat here.”

　　The young man's eyes fell on Di Zongting by the window, and he suddenly asked, “Is that gentleman a patron?”

　　”Yes, that's Mr. Di, Tiansheng Real Estate's boss. His favorite of the restaurant is sweet and sour short ribs and pork bone surface. In a week he will come at least three or four times……”

　　Boss Xu finished the dish, and with deft hands he sent the youth out to the guests. The two people worked seamlessly, the speed much faster than before.

　　These guests were regular customers in the past. The elderly entertained a person, and rather abruptly saw a young handsome guy child, he smiled and quipped: “Boss, when did you collect such a handsome little apprentice ah?”

　　”How could anyone be willing to wors.h.i.+p me as a teacher ah, this is just temporary work for today. This young man arrived in the city but got pick-pocketed and lost his wallet. I pitied him and let him a.s.sist for a day.”

　　The group of people spoke empty talk, Di Zongting looked away from his phone and at the busy young man.

　　His figure is really good. If he was a model, it would definitely be more promising than staying in a small restaurant.

　　However, the brokerage company under his hands was being used as practice by his cousin. He only dealt with some business matters, so didn't need to worry about it. So, as soon as the idea emerged, he turned his attention to the mobile phone again.

　　Twenty minutes later, the young man came with his sweet and sour steak and pork bone noodles.

　　These two are Di Tingting's favorite food on weekdays. Everytime he attended receptions, he thought of these dishes. The dish was still in the pot, and he started to drool once he smelled the aroma.

　　But at this moment, Di Zongting looked at the layer of green celery and parsley floating on the surface of the pig's bone, and suddenly had no appet.i.te.

　　When the young man saw that he did not use chopsticks, he asked: “Sir, why aren't you eating it? Is it not enough? I'll give you some chili noodles.”

　　This taste was enough for him, and only G.o.d knew how much he hated the strong smell of these two vegetables.

　　”Enough…” Di Zongting opened his mouth, trying to get him to stop, but was a step too slow.

　　G.o.d knows what young man used to do. His hand speed was so fast that while he just uttered a word, the next second a small bottle of chili noodles was already piled into his bowl.

　　Di Zongting looked at the layer of red and green stuff floating in the noodles, his eyebrows twisting.

　　Last night he accompanied a collaborating business-man to a banquet. The person prefers greasy, large tables of dishes, and birds and beasts of all kinds. There was no vegetarian food. After eating a meal, his face almost went blue. He didn't have breakfast this morning, so he wanted to try the craftsman of Penglai Xiang.

　　However, the good mood he brewed when he stepped into this shop disappeared at this moment.

　　Di Zongting took a deep breath. Anyway, there is a plate of sweet and sour steak, which can save his mood a little.

　　The next second half of the small bottle of pepper noodles flew into his sweet and sour steak.

　　The young man to his side added red pepper while laughing and said: “I couldn't tell ah, Sir. You don't have any acne on your face, so I didn't expect your taste to be quite heavy, to like spicy food.”

　　Di Zongting couldn't stand it any longer and took out his wallet. Taking out two red bank notes, he slammed them on the table.

　　However, when the young man looked at the back of the man, he lifted the corners of his lips and whispered: “I thought he would shoot the banknote directly onto my face. I didn't expect that his self-control was quite good.”

　　Boss Xu finished the last one. When the dishes came out, he saw Di Zongting's leaving back and asked the young man: “Why did Mr. Di leave?”

　　The young man shrugged innocently: “I don't know. There may be something important that needs to be dealt with, didn't you say that he is a big boss?”

　　”The big boss of Tiansheng Real Estate.”

　　Boss Xu replied to him, and withdrew his gaze from Di Zongting's back. When he saw the bowl of red noodles on the same table as the sweet and sour steak, his wrinkled face almost cracked.

　　When the young man saw him like this, he asked with a smile: “What's wrong, Boss?”

　　Boss Xu sucked the saliva stimulated by the chili noodles and said to the young man, “Mr. Di does not eat chili, celery and parsley. I told you just now. Didn't you hear that?”

　　”Sorry, I have troubled you.” The young man apologized with guilt, put Di Zongting's money put down into the hands of boss Xu, and bowed deeply.

　　”I made a mistake just after work. I don't think I have the ability to earn this meal. I'll leave now, I won't give the boss more trouble.”

　　Boss Xu was dumbfounded, he didn't scold him that much. This kid is really……

　　He chased out after him quickly. But, in the empty alleyway, there was no-one.

***

　　As Chen Lin walked out of the restaurant, he promptly ran forward. The figure of youth looked like he was stepping on the wind. He was out of the alley shortly after he entered, and only then did he slow down.

　　He pulled the zipper of the sweater down, wriggling his arms out, and took it off neatly. When he pa.s.sed by a trash can, he rolled the sweater into a ball, threw it and scored a three-pointer.

　　The gentle, youthful youth disappeared, replaced by a street fighter wearing a short-sleeved flower s.h.i.+rt with blue dragons and white tigers painted on his arms.

　　He took a box of crumpled cigarettes from his jean pocket, stretched out his hands, put them in his mouth, but didn't light it.

　　A group of girl students walked in his direction from the side. When they saw Chen Lin dressed like this, they showed three points of dislike and one point of fear, and turned to the other side of the street.

　　Chen Lin was very satisfied with it, he even hummed.

　　In this song, a mechanical voice sounded.

　　【Host, after three days of delay, for the first time to confront the target character, you have achieved a good result.】

　　”How many points?”

　　【Current Score: 20】

　　This score was within Chen Lin's expectation. Di Zongting's eyes when he saw him in the small restaurant just now seemed to be anxious to cut him with a knife.

　　Chen Lin touched his face, thinking that if he wore heavy makeup before going to work in a restaurant, he could've pulled up the score a little more.

　　However, if he really wears heavy makeup, it may be impossible for the restaurant owner to let him work there.

　　【Host is the most efficient out of all the newcomers. If you don't delay like the previous three days—according to system estimate—your efficiency will be higher. No matter what, please continue to work hard.】

　　Chen Lin gave a soft sigh, and chose to turn a deaf ear to the vague complaints contained in the system praise.

　　This wouldn't have been so smooth without delaying the previous three days.

　　As Chen Lin walked to the house he rented, he calculated in his mind that he had just gotten the hatred of twenty points just after making his first contact with the target. According to the information he had, he went up to Di Zongting and shook him a few times before, it is estimated that the hatred value can be easily brushed up.

　　For the future, Chen Lin is once again full of hope.

　　Before, he was suddenly dragged into the world by a voice called system to do the task. The whole person was in circles, but when the system showed him the picture of his death in a car accident, Chen Lin accepted the system without hesitation. The proposal to do missions in various worlds, as long as he does not go pa.s.sive, he can continue to live in this way.

　　In each world, there is a core character, also called a target character. If he has a hundred points of hatred, he will succeed.

　　Chen Linben is the kind of person who indulges in unrestrained love and freedom. He is also an optimist who can live well no matter where he is.

　　In this world, his ident.i.ty is a fraudster, but Chen Lin is simply not satisfied with this ident.i.ty.

　　Under the condition of not harming the target person, what can be more hateful than being cheated?
