Hearing Zhao Yao’s words, the man was stunned and said, “He disappeared for a long time and we can’t get through his cell phone. We are worried about him. Could we see him?” Zhao Yao smiled. “Of course.”
Zhao Yao opened the kitchen Dimension Portal and shouted, “Hey, number five, your family’s here to see you. Come out and talk to them.”
Sun Jian walked out of the Dimension Portal and emerged from the kitchen. He was dumbstruck when he saw the middle-aged man. “Brother? Why are you here?”
The man looked at Sun Jian and approached him. He observed Sun Jian’s thin and pale face.
The man said with concern, “What’s with you? Why can’t we get through your cell phone?” He turned to glare at Zhao Yao and asked Sun Jian, “Did the boss force you to stay? If you’re being bullied, I’ll avenge you.”
The surrounding henchmen stood up and looked maliciously at Zhao Yao.
They were wary previously as Sun Jian was in Zhao Yao’s hands. With Sun Jian’s appearance, they were no longer worried.
“Chat with your brother and clear up any misunderstandings.” Zhao Yao said something to Sun Jian, walked casually to a chair and sat down. He stroked his chin and practised the dimension sealing.
Sun Jian got a shock from his brother’s words and grabbed hold of him.
Sun Jian recalled how terrifying Zhao Yao was. Though Zhao Yao only showed the tip of an iceberg, his superpowers were frightening.
As his brother was about to antagonize Zhao Yao, Sun Jian stopped him immediately to prevent an impending disaster.
Sun Jian looked at his brother and said immediately, “Nobody bullied me. I want to work in the cafe.”
Sun Jian’s brother looked surprised and said, “You want to work in the cafe?”
“Yes, the boss’s a good person, he speaks well and likes to play with cats. I want to work here for a few days.” Sun Jian was afraid of antagonizing the boss and said, “I’m finishing in three days. I’ll go home after three days.”
“Three days? Working? What are you up to?” His brother looked bewildered at him. When did his brother like working?
“Another three days!” Sun Jian looked at Zhao Yao and said, “Boss, I have to work three more days before going home?”
Zhao Yao hesitated and smiled as he said, “Yes, about three more days.”
Ning Ning felt a cold chill in her body. How many days was that? This was an endless cycle of three days.
She felt sympathy for Sun Jian and could not resist saying, “There are only three days left and he’s worked a lot. Boss, why don’t you release him?”
Sun Jian hesitated and looked in anticipation at Zhao Yao.
Zhao Yao glared at Ning Ning and said, “There are only three days left. Why don’t you replace him?”
“Er...” Ning Ning was scared and said, “Work for another three days. Time will pass quickly.”
Sun Jian sighed. He was afraid that his brother might antagonize Zhao Yao and said, “Enough, I’ll work three more days to earn my own money. Leave quickly. Don’t disrupt the boss’ business.”
Zhao Yao reminded him, “Talk nicely to your brother.”
Sun Jian got a fright and shivered. He said softly and earnestly, “Brother, I’m happy here. Don’t worry. I’ll return home after three days.”
His brother stared wide-eyed at Sun Jian as he could never imagine his rich brother becoming like this.
He patted Sun Jian’s shoulders and said happily, “Brother, you’ve grown up. Seeing your previous decadent life and your current state... You’re now working hard to earn your money.”
His brother was full of gratitude as he walked to Zhao Yao and said, “Boss, thank you. My brother’s... My family was unable to control him. I can’t imagine that now he’s working hard to earn his money and he’s respectful to me.
Thank you. I’m grateful to you!”
Zhao Yao nodded and said, “That’s what I should do.”
Sun Jian’s brother was moved and he said, “My brother had been disobedient since young. Feel free to discipline him at work. I’m handing him over to you. I think three days is too short. Let him stay here for another two months.”
Sun Jian panicked and said, “Wait, brother, listen to me...”
Sun Jian’s brother stopped him and said, “Don’t say a word. Work here diligently for a period of time.”
“Boss, please take care of my brother.”
Zhao Yao smiled, “Don’t mention it. I’ll help you educate him.” He said solemnly, “Number five... I mean Sun Jian, he’s mischievous and impatient. He might call and send messages to you saying that he wanted to go home...”
“Boss, don’t worry. Now that he’s turning over a new leaf, we won’t be lax with him. I’m handing him over to you.”
Sun Jian said in shock and fear, “Brother...”
“Sun Jian, it’s for your own good. Stay here and work. Get rid of your bad habits. We’ll come back in two months.”
Sun Jian broke down when his brother left. His brother had made things worse for him.
Ning Ning dripped cold sweat as she looked at Sun Jian despondent figure. “Another endless cycle of two months...”
“Go and work.” Zhao Yao smiled at Sun Jian and said, “Work diligently. I have high hopes for you.”
Lee Shuyao and Yang Hui looked at each other and felt something weird about the incident.
Lee Shuyao thought, “Sun Jian... seems to be afraid of the boss. Why is that?” She recounted her experience with Zhao Yao. “He’s an otaku cat lover. How is he scary?”
Zhao Yao was not bothered about this incident. Sun Jian was like an additional flavoring in his life. The countless supercats on the alien planet was his next target.
He intended to stay in the cafe for the next few days to practise the Dimension Seal.
