Chapter 126 A short and peaceful life
Chapter 126 A short and peaceful life
The artificial sun shines on the earth, and the afterglow of autumn is particularly obvious on the dead leaves. At this time, on the street of Guiliji, Ye Li follows Ganyu with a somewhat listless expression, feeling nervous about how many things he should hang on his body in the end.
"Ah, why do we have to go out again during such a good holiday? Can't we just have a good sleep?"
Ye Li smiled bitterly inwardly. He finally had a long vacation and made good plans, but he ended up being woken up shopping on the first morning. He felt very bitter.
The deadline from today to next month is a rare holiday. Ye Li has prepared all the supplies that need to be prepared. Ganyu has also stopped processing the articles and let the maid who served her take care of it. It can be considered a promotion and a pay raise.
The maid had been in contact with Ganyu for more than ten years, from the age of twelve or thirteen to the age of twenty-five or twenty-six. The knowledge she learned was enough to support the development and planning of the entire city. She can be said to have made it through all these years of following Ganyu.
Ye Li was thinking about all sorts of things in his head, but he didn't notice that there was a gap between him and the girl, which made the girl next to him very helpless.
Thinking back to what Gui Zhong said before, Ganyu mustered up the courage and knocked on the door to wake Ye Li up early in the morning. This gave Ye Li the opportunity to accompany her shopping today.
However, in response to Ye Li's weak complaints, Gan Yu also comforted him:
"Well, it's nice to go out for a walk. Besides, I haven't walked around for a long time. Besides, we haven't eaten and drank together for a long time."
According to the route plan provided by Gui Zhong, Ganyu brought Ye Li, who had an expressionless face, to a restaurant. The sign was very familiar; it was Wanmin Tang, which had become popular in recent days because of its Mora meat.
Looking at the full table in front of him, Ye Li took out his salary of the past ten years and spent 50 Mora to rent a private room.
The Wanmin Hall shop is very big, with three floors. The first floor has normal dining table facilities and a lot of space, but due to the number of people, it is usually very noisy.
There are many private rooms on the second floor, which are specially used to entertain guests who prefer quietness or for cooperative business.
The third floor is simple, as it is full of strongholds of wealthy families and big businessmen. However, Wanmin Hall has a rule that everyone who enters the restaurant is treated equally. If anyone dares to cause trouble, the strong Guoba will make him understand the power of the iron fist.
Ye Li and Gan Yu naturally booked an ordinary private room on the second floor. The wealthy merchants on the third floor could not act too recklessly due to the contract. If they caused trouble, Guoba's fists would be the least of their worries. The Qianyan Army's law enforcement would not care about your wealth and status and would lock you all up in cells for labor reform, leaving your criminal records and transcripts, which would affect your reputation.
Ever since the incident with Zhao Li, Ye Li understood that laws cannot be applied mechanically, and some subsequent loopholes were filled by Gui Zhong and Morax.
However, there are still some people who tamper with the wording of the contract in order to gain small advantages for themselves, but most of them will be dealt with by legal consultants.
As for the small number who have not been caught, they will sooner or later be found by Morax due to contract violations, and then they will be specially arrested.
Over the years, all those greedy, selfish, and unearned guys have been found out and thrown into prison for forced labor, and they won't be able to get out for at least ten or eight years.
There were not many vacancies in the private rooms on the second floor due to the flow of people, but there was still a vacancy. Ye Li and his companion came to the door of the reserved private room, pushed the door open, and looked at the prepared bowls, chopsticks and snacks inside. Ye Li found a seat by the window and sat down.
Ganyu called the waiter and handed him the written menu. The waiter took it and left, closing the door behind him.
As the door closed, the noise coming from downstairs also disappeared. It can only be said that the sound insulation effect is quite good.
Ye Li took out the iced juice from the token, melted it, handed a cup to Ganyu, and drank one himself. He looked like he had no topic to talk about, but didn't know what to do and had to do this, so the girl had to act according to the plan Gui Zhong told her.
The lunch time passed quickly and Ye Li and the others finished their lunch.
The two walked out of Wanmin Hall, and Ganyu took Ye Li directly to a famous tailor shop nearby. Ye Li had no interest in the various clothes there at the time, but Ganyu picked out a few pieces to try on.
Ye Li stood quietly in front of the door that blocked the fitting room. At this time, a beautiful female staff member came over. Looking at Ye Li's bored look, she immediately understood what the other party was waiting for.
The female staff member came to Ye Li and asked:
"Sir, are you waiting for the lady inside to try on clothes?"
"You're asking even though you already know the answer. However, your clothes are quite sturdy. I wonder if the price is good or not."
Ye Li prepared enough Mora for this trip. After all, it was something his mother asked him to do before he went out, so he had to finish it even if he didn't want to.
"You have a good eye, sir. Our clothes are made of top-quality silk. Whether it's toughness or other qualities, they are much better than those in other shops."
The female staff member smiled and then changed the subject:
"But I see that you are very generous, so I'm sure you have some clothes you want to try."
Ye Li knew that the other party was trying to attract customers, but he still waved his hand and said:
"Don't bother worrying about that, miss. Look, my friend is out too."
Ye Li said this, pointing at Gan Yu who pushed open the door and was wearing a blue-gray robe.
The female staff member looked back, then her eyes widened, staring straight at Ganyu. Looking at the other's beauty, she looked there again, and couldn't help but lower her head to compare it with her own. She suddenly felt ashamed of herself, and her originally smiling expression became bitter, as if she had lost something. She turned her head to look at Ye Li who seemed nothing had happened, and finally understood the biggest reason why the charm she exuded when attracting customers could not attract the other party at all.
The female staff member quickly calmed down her emotions and said with a professional fake smile:
"This friend of yours truly is extremely beautiful. Even I feel inferior to her."
Gan Yu came out of the fitting room and saw Ye Li with a blank face, chatting with a female staff member. For some reason, she felt a little unhappy, but after comparing the beauty and figure of both of them, the unhappy mood disappeared.
Gan Yuyeli came over, subconsciously put his arm around her, and said to the female staff member:
"Please pack the other clothes I took."
The female staff member didn't say much. As long as there were customers buying clothes, Mora would make money. After all, Ganyu's clothes were the most expensive, so she could get a lot of share.
Ye Li felt the softness of his arm and frowned slightly, but he did not let go. After all, he could feel the girl's rapid heartbeat. So he went to the front desk with Gan Yu, paid the bill, took the bag and left.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the store, Ganyu hurriedly let go of her hand, and her face, which had been calm in front of others, turned red in an instant.
Ye Li looked at Gan Yu like this, reached out and pinched her arm, feeling the remaining warmth, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
It had been a long time since he saw Ganyu so nervous.
Ye Li smiled. Although this day was a bit boring, this long-lost peaceful life was also very nice.
