Therefore, seeing that the other party was a mixed-blood Easterner, he stopped looking at her and said perfunctorily, “Let’s go. The foreman picked us.”
Qiao Nian followed silently.
Along the way, the tall foreign man complained about how unlucky he was to be reduced to a dishwasher.
Qiao Nian heard him curse a few times, but he also lowered his voice and chattered.
They were taken to the back kitchen. Soon, someone guided them to the right corner to a mound of fruits and vegetables.
...Seven or eight people were sitting there, busily chopping fruits and vegetables.
No one had the time to greet the two newcomers. They only explained how to wash these expensive fruits and vegetables before assigning them a bunch of tasks and then walking away to return to work.
Qiao Nian looked at the pile assigned to her. She did not look as embarrassed as the tall foreign man. Instead, she rolled up her sleeves leisurely and started working.
The tall foreign man held his breath upon seeing the Asian mixed blood start to work obediently. His face reddened, and his lips were pursed. In the end, he suppressed his anger and also started to work.

This work lasted for three to four hours.
Besides having lunch and resting for two hours.
Qiao Nian was instructed by the kitchen staff to do this and that almost the entire time. She cooperated well and did things cleanly. Besides not being talkative, there was nothing wrong with her.
The kitchen staff gradually became familiar with her and felt that Qiao Nian’s personality wasn’t bad.
At six o’clock in the afternoon, the sun began to set outside. The kitchen was almost done with the chores, and many people carried them outside when they were free.
“The guests will be here soon, right?”
“Looks like a small number have already arrived.”
“I heard that tonight’s banquet is special. It’s not the kind that you often see on television. This time, no media reporters were invited.”
“Look at the ingredients. All expensive imported goods. That truffle fish is imported as if it were free. Tsk, even the chef is a master hired just for today.”
Done with her work, Qiao Nian was wiping her hands unhurriedly.
She was surprisingly low-key while helping out in the kitchen. No one noticed her existence.
“Hey.”
However, after she finished wiping her hands, the unlucky man who had been chosen with her called her out with an ugly expression.
“The people outside are all here. We’re going to guard our spots. Do you want to go over?”
He sounded very displeased.
The main reason was that Qiao Nian had been very cooperative all day, so he had no choice but to work hard.
Qiao Nian was a woman, and he couldn’t be too harsh on her. He could only suppress his anger. “Anyway, I’m going now.”
He did not want to continue staying in this damned kitchen.
After he spoke, he saw the woman throw the tissue into the trash can, raise her hand, and push the black-framed glasses up the bridge of her nose. Then, she raised her head slightly, revealing her fair and translucent oval face, and looked at him calmly.
“Yes, let’s go together.”
He was stunned for a moment.
This voice—
It was faint and carried a hint of indulgence and laziness. It also sounded dry.
His heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the other party’s face.
However, before he could say anything, the woman lowered her eyebrows again and covered her eyes with her fringe as she unhurriedly towards the banquet hall.
He looked at the other party’s back, stunned for a full second before giving himself a tight slap. He cursed at his thoughts and quickly chased after her.
