DCBS: Chapter 17

He Shiwen acted very quickly. After signing the contract, he called Pei Qingyuan to make an appointment for the health certificate examination package at the nearby hospital. He also insisted on giving the medical examination fee in advance before pushing Pei Qingyuan out the door, telling him to go to the hospital quickly out of fear that he would refuse.

“Go home and rest after the physical examination. Come to work tomorrow and Sunday. Once the certificate comes out, just give me a copy and keep a file.”

He Shiwen finished giving the instructions and stood in the store to wave to him. “See you tomorrow, Xiao Pei.”

Then he turned around and went to greet the customers.

The business in the store was good. At present, there were only two people working there, the pastry chef and the owner He Shiwen. They were usually busy and were even busier during the holidays, so he thought of recruiting a part-time weekend worker. The worker could give the pastry chef a hand, work at the cashier and greet customers.

This job wasn’t tiring and the hourly salary was very reasonable. He Shiwen could’ve recruited people a long time ago, but he noticed the high school student often standing in a daze outside the store the other night. Then for some reason, he rejected all those who applied.

Fortunately, this high school student really came.

Pei Qingyuan stood outside the door. In addition to the cash that He Shiwen had given him, there was also a bag of freshly baked pastries. The fragrance was sweet, and Ji Tong couldn’t help gulp in the consciousness space.

“Uncle He is such a good person.” Ji Tong looked at this small but warm store with emotion. “His daughter must be cute as well.”

The sign in front of the store read ‘Xingyue Bakery’ in crooked characters. According to He Shiwen’s enthusiastic introduction just now, this was the name given to the store by his daughter, who was in kindergarten.

“Yes.” Pei Qingyuan shook the bag in his hand and asked, “Do you want to eat bread?”

It was best to have an empty stomach before the physical examination, so Pei Qingyuan planned to eat lunch after the physical examination. Then he considered the fact that his system would be hungry, so he was ready to find a place for Ji Tong to come out and eat first.

Unexpectedly, Ji Tong quietly refused.

“I won’t eat. Host, you should go to the hospital. Go early and return early.”

Pei Qingyuan was a bit surprised. He thought it was because Ji Tong was used to eating the fried chicken, crayfish and hot pot contributed by the basketball team at night and wanted to save time to eat these more hearty foods.

He didn’t ask much and quickly got on his bicycle to head to the hospital.

Pei Qingyuan parked the bicycle, walked through the shade of trees and was about to enter the hospital alone, when he felt the corner of his clothes being grabbed.

He looked back in astonishment and saw a kid in short-sleeved overalls looking at him with shining eyes.

“Ruan Ruan, I will accompany you to the hospital.”

How could his underage host go to the hospital alone, even if it was for a medical examination?

This was Ji Tong’s professional ethics as a professional system.

For this reason, he reluctantly sacrificed the rest of the day’s human eating time.

Pei Qingyuan stared blankly at this boy who was becoming increasingly familiar to him. His mind didn’t return until Ji Tong tugged at the corner of his clothes again.
