Chapter 333: Chapter 322: Homely Matters

"Why do I feel like you’re taking pleasure in my troubles, or am I overthinking it and expecting the worst from you?" Xia Yue murmured quietly.

System:[...]

Xia Yue intentionally asked Ao Mi if he could prepare meals by himself for roughly a hundred people, and if he needed any assistance with things like washing and cutting vegetables.

Ao Mi assured her that it was unnecessary. He explained that having someone around would actually hinder his workflow. In his kitchen, he could freely employ his ability. Preparing meals for a hundred people was trivial for him, even for a thousand people, he could manage it in the given time.

Xia Yue maintained her skepticism until she spent a morning in the kitchen and found out that he wasn’t exaggerating at all.

He was more than capable of multitasking. He could simultaneously handle four to five pots, cut vegetables, and do other tasks. He was doing the work of four to five people by himself.

At that point, Xia Yue felt fully reassured. When the resort opened in the future, she would not have to worry about Ao Mi being unable to handle the cooking.

Xia Yue also started to take on some of the resort responsibilities and had come to understand about seventy to eighty percent of it.

Even with just this one resort, which had not yet opened, Xia Yue was feeling exhausted.

"Brother, you’ve been working so hard." After showering in the evening, Xia Yue lay on the sofa, calling Xia Yu. This was the first thing she said to him.

Xia Yu: "???"

He wondered what had gotten into his sister, considering this was the first thing she said to him.

He quickly asked in concern, "Yueyue, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell, or did someone upset you? Tell me and your brother will help you."

"No, I’ve just suddenly realized how hard it is for you. Running such a large corporation, attending endless meetings, handling countless matters every day, and having to maintain a pleasant demeanor. I used to always trouble you by asking you for things, it really wasn’t fair." Xia Yue said emotionally to Xia Yu, praising him for being a great older brother, and quickly explained herself.

"Your older brother is fine, I’m used to it. But I’m moved by Yueyue’s concern." Seeing that she was truly okay, Xia Yu heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Hehehe," Xia Yue giggled, feeling slightly bashful. Then she asked, "Brother, do you like the gift Xixi and I sent you?"

"I do, it has some years to it. Was it expensive? Do you have enough money? If not, tell your older brother." Xia Yu nodded, then thinking about the gift, he asked.

"I have enough, now I can make money too. Brother, in a while, you can come and visit me. Once it’s open, bring Grandpa and Grandma over to stay for a few days. There’s delicious food and drinks here, the scenery is nice too, it’s perfect for a vacation." Xia Yue excitedly told Xia Yu about the upcoming resort opening.

"Really? Then I’ll definitely take time off to visit. I haven’t taken any leave for a couple of years, so I can stay there for a week or two with Grandpa and Grandma." Even if it wasn’t fun, it was his sister’s property and he would support her no matter what.

"Mm-hmm," Xia Yue nodded happily.

After chatting about family matters for a bit, Xia Yue reminded him not to work too late and then ended the call, not wanting to disturb him any further.

Two days later, while touring the planting area with Professor Hao, Xia Yue received a system notification that another employee had arrived and was at the city gate.

Xia Yue told Professor Hao, then, accompanied by the System’s Spiritual Cat, drove the patrol vehicle to the city gate.
