Little Bosses and Little Monsters

"I failed to protect him back then, this time, naturally, I won't let him suffer the slightest damage."

With the current situation, some things are unavoidable after all, so why does Shu Jing, who has lost the power of Li Huo, guard Tianwang?

Of course he is not helpless, but what will be the consequences of that?Hou Qing could vaguely guess it, but it was impossible for Shu Jing himself not to understand.

An indescribable sense of absurdity welled up in Hou Qing's chest.

However, Shu Jing had already left, and there was no chance for Hou Qing to continue talking, just like he had always been, gentle and decisive, looking gentle, but in fact there was no room for others to comment.

When he walked to the backyard, he happened to see Tianwang standing up from the base of the wall in a panic.

"Do you want to eat?"

I stuttered with fright.

Shu Jing gently leaned against the door frame.

This is a rare action. Although he insists on doing everything according to his heart, it doesn't seem like Hou Qing has no righteous behavior. Mr. Shu's every move seems random, but there is always an air of "knowing that you can't climb it".

He looked up at the sky and smiled, a trace of fatigue hidden in his smile.

"Okay, you go and tell Xiaohe, let's have dinner."

Tianwang suddenly changed into his original form, humming and whimpering around Shu Jing's feet, wagging his tail and acting coquettishly, he was even bigger than before he ate Langganzi, he appeared on the street like this, definitely belonged to the level where everyone detoured But when Shu Jing looked at him, it was like the little milk dog who bared his teeth to protect him, even if he couldn't walk steadily on that road.

Shu Jing squatted down/body, stroking the bristles on the back of Tianwang's neck, the top of Tianwang's head was actually higher than he was squatting like this, lightly resting on Shu Jing's shoulder, so Shu Jing couldn't see the back of his head, Tianwang passed him, The eyes that fell on Hou Qing.

Hou Qing, who was still standing at the door of the small shop, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He didn't notice the interaction between Shu Jing and Tian Wang at first, let alone the gaze that spanned the entire shop. When there was only one person and one dog, Tianwang fell to the ground and let Shu Jing stroke the fur on his belly, and stretched his neck to lick Shu Jing's fingertips.

Hou Qing didn't stay for lunch because he had more important things to do and couldn't wait.

Unexpectedly, within a few days Jiuying came again and brought two news.

"I opened a small shop on Xiguan Street, and you are welcome to visit it from time to time." Jiuying said with a cold face, but not without shyness.

Shu Jing naturally congratulated him.

Tianwang, who had changed back to human form after smelling Jiuying's smell, was a little surprised at Jiuying's decision: "You actually opened a shop? What kind of shop? A coffin shop? Only the dead don't need to communicate."

"Open a coffee shop, cook some home-cooked dishes, afternoon tea and so on. I have been preparing for a long time. This is my dream all the time. A few days ago, I finally found a suitable store, so I rented it. Welcome. Come taste it and give me your opinion." Jiuying has a good temper, and he didn't care about Tianwang's satire on his communication barrier, but he stared at Xiaohe and said the last sentence, which shows his carelessness.

In the past six months in the human world, he stayed at home every day and did nothing. He just studied the food of the human world. He thought he could not be called a chef, and he was qualified to make simple desserts and bento.

Shu Jing can understand, he has already felt that although Jiuying is not good at communicating with others, but in fact he longs for friends in his heart, and the confidence gained in the human world supported Jiuying to make this decision, which can be regarded as forcing himself Learn to integrate into human society earlier.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jiuying, we will definitely support you."

"Thank you Mr. Shu."

"By the way, there is one more thing." Jiuying's speech was a little stagnant, and although his expression didn't change, he suddenly revealed a serious expression: "I heard that it's not peaceful recently, and the monsters who stayed in the human world suddenly disappeared. I have killed several of them, but there is no whereabouts until now. My clansman specially came to tell me to be more careful. I think, although you have nothing to do with the world, but after all, you should be more careful in dealing with people in the world, lest you get into trouble. "

Shu Jing nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Jiuying, if you didn't come here to tell us, we really wouldn't know such a big thing happened."

"you are welcome."

As if he had completed such an amazing task, Jiuying responded with a light and joyful tone, as if he was happy that he had actually gained a few friends.

He didn't stay for a long time. There are many things to prepare for the opening of the store in the past few days. For the first time in his life, Jiu Ying felt this busy, but he was very busy.

After leaving "There is a story", Jiuying went to the store to use the accessories and tools she bought before to do the final decoration for the coffee shop.

Garlands are hung outside the white-painted wooden door, and the curtains in the store are all made of pink and white lace. The white walls retain the outline of the bricks, and small oil paintings are hung. Each table is covered with lace tablecloths. There are also eternal flower music boxes and LED star lights. Mr. Jiuying did not forget to buy a few pots of flowers and put them in the small flower garden in front of the door.

That's right, Mr. Jiuying's aesthetics is full of sweet girl's heart, and he unswervingly implements his obsessive-compulsive disorder. There are nine tables in the store, nine desserts in the window, and the menu he made is only written on each page. There are nine dish names, and there are even nine flower pots in front of the door.

After tidying up in this way, Jiuying returned to her apartment contentedly, but met the landlord Sun Yue at the door again.

Because recently, Jiuying often rented a house and opened a shop outside, so they haven't seen each other for a long time, but I don't know if it's because people are refreshed on happy occasions, Jiuying feels that seeing Sun Yue this time, the other party treats him His attitude has improved a lot, at least he no longer has that defensive look in his eyes.

"Good afternoon, Miss Sun."

"Ah, Mr. Qiu has gone out. I see you often go out recently."

"Yes, I'm planning to open a coffee shop, and Ms. Sun can come to visit after it opens."

"Really? That's really great." Sun Yue's sincere smile showed that she was really happy for Jiuying, and this discovery made Jiuying couldn't help showing a smile.

"Where is your little shop?"

"It's at the intersection of Xiguan Street and Cuihua Road."

Sun Yue said pleasantly: "It's very close to my school! What a coincidence, I will definitely bring my classmates to join you after you open."

"That's right, what a coincidence, thank you in advance." This was also beyond Jiuying's expectations. He has the savings and support of his clan, and he is basically not short of money in the human world, so he chose the store at the time mainly because of the location. , that road is relatively quiet, and the surrounding greenery is also well done. It turns out that it is close to the university town.

"Mr. Qiu is too polite. First of all, I wish you a prosperous business. I still have some things to do, so I will take a step first. Goodbye."

"Okay, bye."

Jiu Ying watched Sun Yue go downstairs, the scene was very familiar, but the moods of the two were quite different.

In a few days, Jiuying's small shop opened, and the business was really good. The location is a little bit, and there is a little bit more. A news quickly spread among the girls in the nearby university that a new coffee shop opened near the school. The decoration is dreamy, and the cooking skills Superb, affordable, and most importantly, the owner of the shop is a super handsome guy with a great figure. Although he is a faceless iceberg, he looks like a gangster at first glance, but he is very gentle and polite when he speaks, and he also wears pink with ruffles The apron, this kind of cute contrast is basically only seen in anime and novels. There are living examples in the three-dimensional dimension. How can we not make people shout how cute.

In this way, it spreads to ten, ten to hundreds, Jiuying's small shop has only been open for a few days, and it is already in a hot state of full seats every day.

Although Jiuying didn't understand why all the girls came, and why the girls looked at him with bright eyes when ordering food, and why he always felt the baptism of eyes from all directions when he was busy in the store, even keen Mr. Jiuying also noticed that someone was secretly taking pictures of himself with a mobile phone, but no matter what, Mr. Jiuying is very happy that his shop is so popular. Although he still looks fierce and not easy to get close to, in fact, Mr. Jiuying In my heart, there are little angels flying around and spreading flowers every day.

Ah, the human world is so beautiful!

Ah, these lovely girls are really fairies!

However, Mr. Jiuying is also facing a problem, that is, the business is really good, and he has to take orders, cook, and cashier all by himself. Obviously, he is too busy, although the guests are all lovely. The little fairy, when she saw that he was so busy, she always said kindly that it was okay and there was no need to worry, but when she saw the customers inside and outside the store looking forward to waiting, Jiuying felt very embarrassed, how could she let the fairies down? sin!

So Jiuying decided to recruit waiters. Once the notice was posted, many students came to apply for the job, but Mr. Jiuying refused one after another, and he never found a satisfactory one.

Most of the applicants were girls, but Jiuying was grateful to these girls who supported her, and felt that these petite and sweet lives should be used to be served. The conditions for recruiting boys, as expected, a lot of boys came later, but Jiuying thought that they all came for the girls in the store, they didn't really want to work, don't underestimate the sensitivity of a beast-level existence, Mr. Jiuying Although emotionally a little dull, the keen instinct belonging to a strange beast is outstanding even in the demon world.

So it dragged on for a long time.

Although he is very busy every day, Mr. Jiuying feels that his life as a beast has never been so satisfying and fulfilling.

Sure enough, Sun Yue has been here several times, sometimes with her classmates, and sometimes when she is free, she will order a cup of coffee in Jiuying's shop and sit and read a book all afternoon. Every time she comes, Jiuying will She gave her a half discount, and after her classmates found out, she even made fun of the two of them. Sun Yue denied it, but every time she looked at Jiuying's handsome side face when she was busy, she couldn't help but secretly move her heart.

To be precise, her impression of Jiuying changed. After returning from that bookstore, she first read the written part of the white paper. It probably told a story about a "person" when he was young. It seemed to be due to family reasons. He was excluded, so he had to use a cold appearance to disguise, but the story was only a few pages long, and she didn't tell the whole story, so she put the book aside, but the magic is that since then, every time she sees Jiu She is no longer absolutely obnoxious to the other side, and the words said by the bookstore owner and the stories described in the book often sound in her mind, and she can't help thinking, maybe this "Mr. Qiu" is also a cold-hearted man As for those who are not good at words, after communicating several times with this mentality, Sun Yue discovered that "Mr. Qiu" has always been a gentleman, and he is not the vicious person he thought he was at all.

This day Sun Yue also came to the store to read. She had a few textbooks and novels by her hand. She sat there all afternoon. She didn't know whether she spent more time reading books or watching people.

The sun was setting and the crows were returning to their nests. The streets were full of pedestrians returning home. After Sun Yue left, Jiuying went up to clear the dining table, but accidentally found a book left behind at the foot of the table. He took it out and chased it out. But he didn't see Sun Yue's person.

Jiuying recognized that it was a book that Sun Yue dropped when they met in the corridor once. He wanted to put it away and return it to Sun Yue when he returned to the apartment, but when he turned around, he saw a figure hovering in front of the store. .

A man wearing an ordinary suit and carrying a briefcase, full of the mediocrity of a mediocre clerk, stood in front of the small shop, staring at the dessert counter in the shop and muttering.

Jiuying didn't need to get close to hear the man talking to himself——

"The third one in the first row, there are strawberries."

"No, no, the eighth one in the second row looks more delicious."

"Strawberries should be eaten this season."

"But chocolate is the classic."

"BLABLA BLABLALBA..."

"@#￥￥%&*#..."

This person actually struggled in front of the store for half an hour because of the difficulty of choosing.

"Actually, you can buy them in turn. Strawberries today and chocolates tomorrow."

The sudden sound made the man jump in surprise, and when he turned his head, Jiuying realized that he had seen this person before, often at this time, and would stop at the door for a while, Jiuying always thought that the other party was after work Waiting for someone or something, I didn't expect that it was because I couldn't make up my mind which cake to eat and I was entangled every time to give up.

The clerk wore a pair of big black-rimmed glasses, which forcibly added a bit of old-fashionedness to his originally handsome features.

When he found out that it was the shop owner, the employee's face flushed red.

What's more, Jiuying is always easy to make people think that the whole world owes him money, and the small staff think that it is because he is standing in front of the store that he is affecting others.

How to do it?Should I go in and buy it or leave now?

Go in and buy it?I have endured it for so many days.

Leave now, the boss is dissatisfied.

But the cake looks delicious, I really want to eat it.

But when I went in, I still didn't know which one to eat.

Strawberry?

Chocolate, right?

……

The clerk's expression showed that he was struggling with something again. Jiuying faintly felt the corner of his mouth twitching. He raised his hand and pushed the person into the store, ending this invisible game.

"Today's strawberries are very good, big and sweet, so eat the strawberry ones today, and try the chocolate ones tomorrow. I'll save one for you."

Once someone helped make a decision, the clerk seemed to relax.

"Okay, okay."

Then he lay down in front of the dessert cabinet, staring at the last strawberry cake like a greedy child.

Look, a little silly...

It is rare for Jiuying to have the opportunity to complain about others in his heart.

When the cake was packed, the clerk paid the money and left contentedly holding the cake he had been looking forward to for many days.

And a little cute.
