Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!

Among the many burly men, Aubrey was the closest in age to Casio. Perhaps because he was still young, he understood some of Casio's little actions better than the older men.

Casio didn't answer him, but just looked at him, wiped the table with a rag, and said, "Hurry up and clean up. Everyone is tired tonight and wants to get off work early."

The restaurant was so busy that no one had time to sit down for even a moment. Even though they were all strong men used to doing heavy work, they couldn't keep up.

Aubrey knew he was deliberately avoiding the topic.

Casio saved someone last time and claimed to have medical skills.

In many people's eyes, being a doctor is a particularly noble profession. People with a little money will spend all their family's wealth to train a doctor, because the medical profession is not only noble, but also very lucrative.

The other four major families also have rules against attacking doctors unless the doctor commits a serious offense.

Clearly, training a doctor is like having a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Casio knows medicine but doesn't become a doctor. The older men with him don't ask why, but they vaguely feel that Casio must have made some big mistake to hang out with them, a group of uncultured, rough men.

Aubrey was the first to ask Casio, but Casio still didn't say anything, so he stopped asking.

After packing their things, they closed the restaurant door and went back to their dormitory to rest.

It was already late at night, and apart from the wind and snow, only their group of figures were on the long street of Juecheng.

In many cities in the North Continent, the streets are practically deserted by 9 p.m., because petty thugs who rob people often appear as the night goes on.

Few people who walk at night have escaped being robbed or stabbed.

However, Juecheng is the territory of the four major families. Many small organizations from outside don't know if they might offend the four major families or some small merchants protected by the Federation by casually offending someone in Juecheng.

Therefore, robbery and theft, which are common in other cities, become the norm in Juecheng.

Casio and his group were employees of the Davis family. Davis was known for protecting his own, and if any of his employees were beaten up by someone, a member of the family would take care of the other party.

Casio's group was usually afraid to walk at night, but now they swaggered around the streets without fear of anyone causing trouble.

Kyle arranged for them to live in dormitories a ten-minute walk from the restaurant. There was a large yard, and the houses around the yard were inhabited by the hunting dogs that worked for the Davis family, as well as some other employees of the Davis shops.

When they returned, someone came out to ask if they had brought back dumplings or beef or anything like that.

Casio and his group were especially popular with the other Davis employees in the courtyard, not for any other reason than their stuttering.

When they couldn't get into the cafeteria to eat because they were busy working, they would give money to Aubrey and his friends to bring back some meat and dumplings so they could cook a meal for them in their dorm.

Because the food was so delicious, people would ask them to bring food back every night.

Aubrey and the others also knew the importance of getting along well with others, so they would specifically save some meat and other ingredients to cook and eat together.

Casio never joined in their fun. Back in the four-person dormitory, he changed his clothes and took off his shoes.

I brought a basin of hot water and used it to wipe my face and hands.

Finally, I soaked my feet, and that marked the end of my washing up.

Ignoring the noise outside, she climbed into her bed and fell asleep.

Before dawn, Casio was jolted awake from his sleep, covered in a cold sweat. He was wide awake, while the others in the dormitory were fast asleep.

Casio tiptoed out of bed, changed his clothes, and left the dormitory.

It's around 5 a.m. now, which is very early.

Everyone was asleep.

Casio had no idea where he could go in this vast world. After some thought, he went to the restaurant.

It was still early, but when he got to the back door of the kitchen, he noticed a sliver of light coming through the bottom of the door.

Casio assumed the kitchen light hadn't been turned off when he left, so he took out his key and opened the door. As soon as he stepped inside, a gun barrel was suddenly pointed coldly at his head.

"Casio?"

The gun's owner recognized the newcomer and put the gun away.

Casio also glanced at the two people in the kitchen; they were Asa and Qiyuan.

A hint of surprise flashed in Casio's gray-blue eyes. "Boss, why are you at the restaurant so early?"

"If you come earlier, no one will know I'm here," Qi Yuan said. "I see you're all so busy every day, so I came to help out today."

“Boss, you are the boss, you can delegate all the work to us, you don’t need to come in person.”

Casio thought that Qi Yuan was definitely not used to being a boss. Bosses usually just let their employees work like cattle and horses, and then when they have money, they just sit there counting it.

Few business owners are as hands-on as Qi Yuan.

"If I don't do something, I'll feel like a useless person at the end of the day."

At the Davis family home, with a butler present, Qi Yuan only had time to cook something nice in the kitchen. Whenever he wanted to do something else, the butler would patiently advise him against it.

After learning the price of a basket of strawberries yesterday, Qi Yuan felt even more guilty. Not wanting to keep spending Noah's money, he came to the restaurant to earn some.

Otherwise, he would feel guilty if Noah kept spending money on him.

“Boss, you underestimate yourself. At least in our eyes, you are a very capable person,” Casio said.

Qi Yuan smiled when he heard the praise, "Casio, I never thought you would actually compliment someone."

“Boss, I’m just an ordinary person,” Casio said.

Qi Yuan looked at him and nodded.

"Casio, why are you at the restaurant so early?"

As he spoke, Casio had already put on his apron and chef's hat.

Upon hearing Qi Yuan's question, he replied, "I enjoy the feeling of cooking."

"why?"

Casio thought for a moment, looked at Qi Yuan, and asked, "Boss, you should know about me from Mr. Noah."

"Mm." Qi Yuan nodded.

Casio said, "Before, I picked up knives and similar objects to take someone's life, but now I pick up a knife to feed people and provide them with the nutrition to survive. Thinking about this, I've unconsciously come to enjoy cooking. Also, boss, the dishes you've made us cook are really troublesome."

Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Casio's words, "Is it too much trouble for me to cook these dishes?"

“Hmm.” Casio placed a piece of beef on the cutting board. “We rarely slice beef this thinly except for eating it raw. And we slice hundreds of pounds of beef this thinly every day. We dream about slicing beef all day long.”
