Seeing the few people in the private room, Chen Che’s expression changed. He stood at the door and did not enter.

He thought that it was a big client, but he did not expect it to be Jiang Zijun!

Thinking back to the last time Jiang Zijun mocked and ridiculed him in front of everyone, it was obvious that this fellow did not have any good intentions today.

The truth was just as Chen Che had thought. Jiang Zijun had also seen the live broadcast last night and was here to deliberately make things difficult for him!

“Hey! Why are you standing at the door? Hurry up and come in to serve us? Do you believe that I’ll complain about you?!” Jiang Zijun spoke at this moment. He held a cigarette in his mouth and crossed his legs, looking high and mighty.

Chen Che wanted to turn around and leave, but he overcame this impulse.

The customer is always right. If he really left just like that, Jiang Zijun would definitely not let him off.

After all, Big Sister Wang was a businesswoman. She might not protect him.

The benefits of this job were considerable, and it did not affect their relationship. Chen Che did not want to lose it because of this.

More importantly, this was only the second day of work. If he quit, some anti-fans would definitely say that it was a performance.

The Internet storm that had just been suppressed might rekindle because of this.

After comprehensive consideration, Chen Che knew that he could not leave. So what if Jiang Zijun made things difficult for him? As long as it was not too much, he could completely accept it!

After making up his mind, Chen Che walked in with a fake professional smile.

“So it’s Brother Jiang. I’m happy to serve you today. What can I do for you?”

Jiang Zijun was stunned. He had thought that Chen Che’s attitude would be bad, so he would have something to complain about.

The thought of making Chen Che lose his job made him happy.

However, with Chen Che’s polite attitude, how could he complain?

This was the exact opposite of what he had imagined. He really couldn’t do it. For a moment, he didn’t know how to continue.

Seeing this, the other brothers immediately spoke up to mock him.

“This is Lin Xi’s boyfriend? He’s not that good.”

“That’s right. He delivers packages and has to be a part-time waiter. How poor is he?”

“Lin Xi is really blind. He abandoned Zijun and chose such a poor person!”

Chen Che stood where he was with a smile on his face. No matter what nasty things they say, he’ll turn a deaf ear!

Jiang Zijun came back to his senses and looked at Chen Che. He sneered and said, “You’re really thick-skinned. Don’t you feel embarrassed hearing that about you?”

“I feel ashamed for Lin Xi!”

Chen Che shrugged and smiled. “Lin Xi won’t think too much about it. Even if I’m penniless, she’ll still be with me.”

On the surface, he wanted to emphasize that their relationship was strong, but in reality, Chen Che wanted to say that even if he begged for food, Lin Xi was willing to follow him. Aren’t you angry?

How could Jiang Zijun not understand?

The corners of his eyes twitched. He was so angry that he almost fainted.

Not only had the goddess he had admired for a long time been snatched away, but Chen Che was also showing off in front of him.

It was simply heartbreaking!

Not wanting Chen Che to have the upper hand, Jiang Zijun pretended to be calm and pointed at the singing equipment. “Alright, the situation is already so bad that to make it worse makes no real difference. I can’t be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Hurry up and adjust the mike for us!”

“Okay.” Despite Jiang Zijun’s commanding tone, Chen Che remained unmoved.

Moreover, he knew that what he said just now must have angered Jiang Zijun!

Looking at Chen Che’s serious service, Jiang Zijun narrowed his eyes and began to plan a new strategy.

After Chen Che finished adjusting the microphone, Jiang Zijun also thought of a way. He took the menu and said, “Give us a serving of melon seeds first!”

“Okay, don’t you need anything else?” Chen Che asked.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Just take what I tell you to take!” Jiang Zijun glared at him.

“Alright, please wait a moment.” Chen Che did not say anything else and hurriedly left.

He knew that Jiang Zijun and the other men wouldn’t just munch on melon seeds. Didn’t they just want to make things difficult for him? Didn’t they just want to anger him?

In that case, I won’t do as you wish. If you have money, you can do whatever you want. I can afford to play with you!

Moreover, I can earn more money. Why not?

With this thought in mind, Chen Che did not feel displeased at all.

Seeing Chen Che leave, one of them said, “Zijun, this kid is shameless. I’m afraid he won’t argue with us tonight.”

“It’s okay. Let’s see how long he can hold it in.” Jiang Zijun smirked.

After a while, Chen Che returned and placed the melon seeds on the table. He still had a smile on his face as he said, “The melon seeds you requested, please enjoy.”

Jiang Zijun casually grabbed a handful. As he ate, he said, “You look so respectful. If I were to show it to Lin Xi, how would she feel? Would she think that her boyfriend is very cowardly?”

“That won’t happen. In the service industry, customers are always right.” Chen Che’s expression did not change.

“Alright, then serve your God well and bring me a fruit platter!” Jiang Zijun instructed.

“Please wait a moment.” Chen Che left again, feeling happy.

Since the other party clearly wanted to make things difficult for him in this way, as long as he wasn’t angry, how much would the other party spend tonight?

How could Jiang Zijun know what Chen Che was thinking? At this moment, he still felt that he was high and mighty and smug.

Just like that, Chen Che went back and forth. Before long, the table was filled with all kinds of snacks.

In order to get a higher commission, Chen Che would occasionally use small tricks to provoke Jiang Zijun, who was in high spirits.

In less than half an hour, there was a pile of snacks on the table and a mountain of beer cans on the ground.

This time-tested scheme made Chen Che overjoyed. Just from Jiang Zijun, he could already earn $200 from tonight’s commission.

Most importantly, this money was earned from the enemy. It was simply too satisfying!

Not wanting to be discovered by Jiang Zijun, Chen Che could only suppress the joy in his heart.

Chen Che’s actions also attracted the envy of the other colleagues.

He thought to himself, “Where did this customer come from? Even if it’s revenge, it shouldn’t be so exaggerated, right?”

After delivering another box of wine, Chen Che looked at Jiang Zijun and asked with a smile, “Do you want more?”

These three words expressed another meaning. It means that you will get whatever you want, I’ll admit defeat if I complain!

Jiang Zijun was also a stubborn person. Until now, he still did not understand Chen Che’s intentions. He wanted to see how long Chen Che could endure.

Just as Jiang Zijun was about to continue, a man beside him hurriedly stopped him. “Zijun, Zijun, forget it. These things, even if we stuffed ourselves to death, we won’t be able to finish them.”

“That’s right. This kid is obviously a good-for-nothing. There’s no need to waste any more money. After teasing him for so long, we can be considered to have vented our anger,” another person echoed.

After being persuaded by his friend, Jiang Zijun felt that it made sense and slowly calmed down.

However, Chen Che was dissatisfied. After all, these two people had cut off his source of income!

After lighting a cigarette, Jiang Zijun looked at Chen Che. “That day, you acted domineering in front of everyone just for Lin Xi to see, right? I really didn’t expect you to be so cowardly. How are you feeling after being ordered around by me like this?”

“I’m in a very good mood,” Chen Che answered without hesitation.
