I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week Novel - Chapter 639

639 The Human World Is Not a Haven. Everyone Has Their Own Hardships

“You… you said this is a trash bug?”

Xu Wan was a little dumbfounded. In that moment, her silly expression looked a little cute.

The bug that she was currently dealing with could be considered the biggest problem she had encountered ever since he started the business.

After dealing with it for two consecutive days, she still had no clue how to solve it at all. She felt like she was going bald thinking about it.

!!
How was this a trash bug?

Wasn’t he a chef? How could he understand all this?

Lin Yi held his phone in one hand and chatted with Sugar while his other hand kept typing away on Xu Wan’s laptop.

“This isn’t how the OI process is done. There is something wrong with it.” Lin Yi said.

“It’s as if someone wants egg fried rice and you stir-fry it with corn. It’ll be strange if nothing goes wrong.”

Lin Yi’s slender fingers tapped on the keyboard at an unimaginable speed, like he was playing the piano.

Xu Wan was dumbfounded by the series of new codes.

She had never seen such code before.

She had never thought that the code could be written like this.

In about ten minutes, Lin Yi modified Xu Wan’s program code.

“It’s done. If you run it again, it should be fine.”

“I-I’ll try…”

According to Lin Yi, Xu Wan ran the new program code again.

Unexpectedly, she realized that the reason for her early baldness had been resolved!

Moreover, the smoothness of the program had increased by at least 20%!

Xu Wan was shocked beyond words. How could a chef write such code?

Wasn’t he a little too powerful?

“B-Boss, thank you.”

“It’s fine.” Lin Yi waved his hand, not thinking about it at all. “We should practice our skills before starting a business.”

“Got it.”

After he resolved the bug, Xu Wan stood up and thanked him.

She carried her laptop and did not plan to return to her dormitory. Instead, she returned to the company to continue working!

Later on, the store’s business picked up again.

However, many people still showed great interest in what happened yesterday and hounded Lin Yi to ask about it.

Lin Yi didn’t want to waste his breath explaining so much, so he went into the kitchen.

While cooking, Lin Yi gathered the plastic bottles, waste paper, and useless ironware together, preparing to give them to the old lady.

Ji Qingyan had her own matters to attend to, so she only drove over at six in the evening.

At around seven in the evening, Ji Qingyan took out a piece of chalk and wrote a line of words on a small blackboard.

“Business till 8:00 p.m. sharp.”

There were also two little hearts drawn at the end. It seemed a little childish.

“Put the sign inside today,” Lin Yi said.

“Why?” Ji Qingyan asked. “If you leave it in the restaurants, the students queuing outside won’t see it. They’ll still come in.”

“I’m waiting for someone.”

“Waiting for someone?”

Lin Yi briefly explained what happened last night to Ji Qingyan, and the latter understood.

“I’ll listen to you.”

“I don’t know how long I’ll have to wait. Why don’t you go home first?”

“Nope.”

She shook her head. “I’ll wait with you.”

“Then if you’re tired, sleep for a while.”

“Uh-huh.”

Ji Qingyan placed the small blackboard in an inconspicuous position by the door.

There was an advantage to this. If someone came in to eat but saw the small blackboard after entering, they would turn around and leave.

However, the old lady was old, and her eyesight was not as good as the young people’s.

Even if she was near to it, they might not be able to see the words. At this point, Lin Yi or herself would be able to spot the old lady.

This was killing two birds with one stone.

After closing the shop, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan did not stay idle. They chatted about the development of the two companies.

Ji Qingyan also offered many constructive suggestions regarding the new system.

Lin Yi also explained Liang Jinming and Gao Zongyuan’s thoughts.

This caused Ji Qingyan to roll her eyes.

Why were these boys always thinking about these things? It was too evil.

At around 11 pm, the number of pedestrians on Zhengyang Street gradually decreased.

The other shops closed one after another, leaving only one in Lin Yi’s shop.

“Lin Yi, there seems to be someone outside,” said Ji Qingyan.

Lin Yi looked up and saw the old lady from yesterday. He stood up and opened the door.

To Lin Yi’s surprise, there was more than one person outside the door. There was also a ten-year-old boy.

He was also carrying a sack on his back. He was wearing shorts and a t-shirt that were stained with a lot of soil.

When he saw Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan, he looked nervous and uneasy.

“This is my grandson. He came to help me today.”

The old lady bared her teeth with a smile in her eyes.

Although life was tough, they lived optimistically.

“Madam, come in.”

Ji Qingyan welcomed them in.

“We won’t go in. I’m too dirty today. I don’t want to dirty your floor.”

“It’s okay. Come in.”

“Thank you, Sister,” the child whispered.

“Come back!”

Seeing that the little boy was about to sit on the chair, the old lady stopped him and took out a clean newspaper from under her arms and spread it on the chair.

Ji Qingyan did not feel good inside. Did life make them feel afraid?

“Lin Yi, hurry up and cook. I’ll help the auntie pack her things.”

“Sure.”

Ten minutes later, Ji Qingyan placed the fried rice in front of the two of them. Lin Yi took out all the scraps he had saved.

“Thank you, brother and sister,” the boy whispered.

Ji Qingyan stroked the boy’s head. “Tell me, what’s your name?”

“Wang Dongdong.”

“How old are you this year? What grade are you in?”

“I’m 11, but I don’t go to school anymore.”

“You don’t go to school?”

Wang Dongdong pursed his lips. He wanted to say something, but he didn’t.

“If we can’t pay the tuition fees, the school won’t let him attend.” The old lady said.

“I was thinking of asking him to come out and pick up scraps with me. I want him to help me earn more money. Once we save enough money, he can go to school.”

“What about his parents?”

“His father was working in the mines before this and got into an accident. He was buried down there and the boss ran away. After that, her mother had some mental problems and went missing three years ago. There’s no news of her until now. I’ve been looking for her for more than a year but there’s no news at all. Something might have happened to her as well.”

She turned around and quietly wiped away her tears.

She had mixed feelings and didn’t know what to say.

The old lady smiled as she spoke of the sadness of life, but in Ji Qingyan’s eyes, this was the deepest form of pain and torture.

Lin Yi didn’t say anything. He patted Wang Dongdong’s head. “Eat more. I’ll make more for you if it’s not enough.”

“Thank you, Brother.”

Wang Dongdong’s tears also fell, but his hands didn’t stop moving.

It was not easy for him to get a full meal.

“Eat slowly, you can still eat tomorrow.” Lin Yi smiled.

“Yes, yes. Thank you, Brother and Sister.”

After finishing their meal, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan sent the old lady and Wang Dongdong off.

However, Ji Qingyan’s eyes were still red.

Lin Yi patted her shoulder and comforted her.

“The human world is not a haven. Everyone has their own hardships. This is the way life is, so don’t be so emotional.”

“Got it.” Ji Qingyan heaved a sigh of relief. “Let’s go home.”

“Yeah.”

The two of them tidied up the store and drove back to Jiuzhou Pavilion.

However, Ji Qingyan had never ever been so emotional, and she had yet to recover from her earlier sadness.

So much so that after taking a shower, she didn’t go to the study to accompany Lin Yi and instead, returned to the bedroom.

The next morning, Ji Qingyan’s emotions returned to normal.

Ring!

When they were eating early, Lin Yi’s phone rang.

It was a call from Wang Ran.

“Teacher Lin, the office equipment has been moved into the new company. Do you want to take a look?”

“Already?”

“President Tian came over to help which saved a lot of time,” Wang Ran said with a smile. It was obvious that she was also very happy.

“Alright, I’ll go take a look later.”

“Okay.”

After eating, Ji Qingyan freshened up and the two of them headed out together.

Lin Yi drove to the new incubation center to check out the new office before dealing with Brandon and the others.

Unlike a few days ago, the incubation center was now ready.

Four big words were erected on the roof.

“Longxin Building”

In addition, there was an additional row of small words on one side of the building.

“High-tech incubation center.”

Liang Ruoxu had done this on purpose.

The purpose of placing the Longxin Building in the most conspicuous position was to tell others that the owner of this building was Longxin.

The words on the side of the building reminded the others that this company was under someone’s protection and that they had to behave normally.

At this moment, a white Civic sedan stopped in the parking lot.

Xu Wan, who was wearing a white windbreaker, held her laptop and walked towards the building with Han Fei.

At this moment, Zhou Ze and Wang Zhen were already waiting for them.

“Little Wan, I have something to tell you. The matter regarding the top floor is done and dusted,” Zhou Ze shrugged and said, “Someone already got it.”

“Don’t tell me that the chef really won it?” Han Fei said, “That woman is really capable. She actually beat us to it.”

“It has nothing to do with them.” Zhou Ze pointed at the roof. “Look at the words on it.”

“Longxin Building?”

“The top three floors were taken by Longxin. It has nothing to do with the chef,” Zhou Ze said. “Moreover, they even bought the title plaque. We can’t compete with them.”

“That doesn’t matter,” Han Fei said. “As long as we didn’t let that chef snatch it away.”

“Don’t say that,” Xu Wan said. “He’s very powerful. He was the one who helped me deal with the OI bugs.”

“Huh?”

Zhou Ze and Wang Zhen were surprised. They found Xu Wan’s words unbelievable.

“That’s impossible. He’s a chef. What does he know about computer code?” Zhou Ze said.

“If he’s really so great, he’d be qualified to start his own business. Why would he still be a chef?”

“I agree with you. If he really had that level of skill, he could easily earn hundreds of thousands a year by working in other companies. There would be no need for him to rely on a rich woman.”

“That’s what I thought too, but Lil’ Wan insisted that it was that chef who helped her. I think her heart has secretly been won,” Han Fei said.

“What are you talking about?” Xu Wan said.

“There’s nothing to lie about. He really helped me deal with it. We’ve been trying to figure it out for so many days and haven’t found a good solution. There’s no way I could have thought up a solution as easily as he did.”

“I think you’re just craving his body. You didn’t even tell me you were going to eat there,” Han Fei said.

“Didn’t you look down on him? I wanted to go myself,” Xu Wan said. “Besides, their food is indeed delicious. It’s normal to want to eat there.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You don’t have to tell me about this. You should just tell Zhou Ze.”

“I really can’t do anything about you guys.” Xu Wan shook her head speechlessly. “Since Longxin has moved here, should we send a flower basket over to greet them?”

“Yesterday, the equipment was brought in one after another,” Han Fei said. “They should be almost ready today.”

“I feel like we should go and greet them. Although they don’t know us, it’s not wrong for us to go over and get to know them.” Wang Zhen said.

“In the entrepreneurial stage, you have to display a thick-skinned spirit. Only then will you gain more opportunities.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already considered this and bought everything we need. We’ll send it over later to get close to them,” Zhou Ze said.
