Initiating a Plant Revolution in the Otherworld

Chapter 45 I'm Not Because of Salary... (Please recommend!)

Ron came out of the dimension, greeted Nora, and went to the second floor to start making lunch.

Because there is an extra mouth in the store, the portion made today is also a little bit more.

After the simple completion, Ron called Nora to go upstairs for dinner, and then he heard the sound of pattering footsteps coming from the stairs.

Smelling the aroma on the dining table in the living room, Nora couldn't help but shrugged her nose slightly, and her stomach began to growl.

Although there were no customers in the morning, Nora was not idle at all, and cleaned the inside and outside of the shop. By noon, she was already very hungry.

Nora sat down at the table, and Ron brought the last of the food, sat across from Nora, and motioned for her to start.

The sound of knives and forks and chewing suddenly resounded in the living room.

"How old are you?" Ron asked casually after swallowing a mouthful of food.

The movement of Nora's mouth paused, and the food was still in her mouth, so she whined, "...Sixteen."

"Two years younger than me." Ron nodded, "Have you always lived in Chaos City?"

Nora swallowed the food, shook her head, and said after a moment of silence: "When I was a child in the Imperial City of the Human Race, my mother and I were caught by human traffickers, and then sent to a certain place on the border. On the way, my mother helped me escape, and then... ...and I escaped here."

There was a moment of silence in the house.

Nora glanced at Ron, but squeezed out a smile and said comfortingly: "It's been seven or eight years, I don't mind saying this, don't look sorry."

Ron nodded, leaving the subject alone.

As for Nora's mother, Ron didn't ask any more.

After so long, and helping Nora escape from the hands of human traffickers, the fate may not be much better...

Nora bowed her head and continued to eat lunch. She hadn't eaten hot food for a long time, but she ate at Ron's place several times in recent days, which made her feel cherished.

The thought of eating such food in the future and the haze of talking about my mother dissipated a little.

"Take off your hat, you're sweating." Ron saw the sweat dripping from Nora's forehead, so he said, "There are no outsiders here, so you don't need to cover your ears."

After being told by Ron, Nora also felt a little hot, so she obediently took off her hat and put it aside.

In this way, a pair of light black furry cat ears were exposed to the air, and they were also exposed to Ron's sight.

Ron lowered his head to eat as if nothing had happened, but he always subconsciously raised his eyes to look at those cat ears.

Maybe it was because she seldom exposed her ears to the air, or maybe she was a little nervous after noticing Ron's gaze. Nora's cat ears were shaking, making people want to reach out and knead them.

Since wandering into Chaos City, Nora has hardly exposed her cat ears in front of outsiders.

It is the first time in many years that he is exposed in front of others without hiding like this.

If you look closely, the inside of Nora's ears has already been covered with a light pink layer due to nervousness and embarrassment.

This is completely different from Nora's previous style of teaching the little gangsters.

"Ron... store manager," Nora asked, seeing the strange atmosphere, "are you a native of Chaos City?"

Ron shook his head: "I'm not."

"Then you came here to do business in Chaos City on purpose? Just to open this flower shop?" Nora asked curiously.

"Well..." Ron pondered for a moment, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said with a serious expression, "Since you have asked, I will not hide it from you."

"Actually, my father is the current emperor of the Human Empire—Andre III."

"I'm his seventh child."

"Pfft..." Seeing his serious face, Nora thought he was about to say something, but when she heard this, she laughed out loud, almost choked, and patted her chest to comfort herself, and said, "Ahem... ...How could anyone be so deceitful..."

Ron didn't take it seriously, and continued with a smile: "As for this flower shop, I actually opened it only after receiving the order of the Harvest Goddess. Otherwise, where would I get those magical plants?"

"...Shop Manager, don't talk nonsense about the goddess..." Nora, who also believes in the goddess of harvest, hesitated for a moment before reminding her.

Apparently Nora didn't think Ron was telling the truth at all.

What is the son of Andre III, what is the will of the Goddess of Harvest, these sound too fantastic...

It sounds like a lie...

Ron just shrugged, after all he was telling the truth.

Well, the matter of "the will of the Harvest Goddess" is still a lie for the time being, but after a while, Ron will be able to make this matter "true".

"I won't say anything, just think I'm joking." Ron changed the topic, thinking that this kind of thing is really just seeing is believing, and no one will believe what he says, no matter how true it is.

However, things these days are always getting closer to the truth when they are more outrageous.

"Hmm... will the store still recruit new employees?" Nora stopped worrying about the matter above, and asked instead, "I remember your recruitment announcement, manager, it seems to say that you will recruit two employees?"

"Uh..." Ron was at a loss for words for a while, thinking that it was just to take care of your self-esteem, so he wrote "two people" specially, so that you would feel that this was not specially prepared for you.

But this kind of thing is not easy to say in person, right?

It always feels like there is no intention.

Especially seeing Nora's appearance after taking a bath, Ron really had some ulterior motives emerging.

"Ahem." Ron cleared his throat, and said after deliberation, "Originally, I really wanted to recruit two people, but I'm not in a hurry now, let's see if there are any suitable people."

"And, I don't think you would want me to hire another employee." Ron rolled his eyes and added with a smile

"How... how?" Nora hastily defended, "It's the store manager's right to recruit employees, how could I disagree?"

"If we recruit another employee, one of you will be responsible for the day and the other for the night. Then your salary will be divided in half with that new employee." Ron looked at Nora innocently, "But In this way, you can also relax a little bit and don't need to be too tired, it seems that..."

"No!" Nora stood up anxiously, her light black cat ears trembling several times.

Perhaps because she realized her impoliteness, Nora explained in a panic: "No... I mean no need... um... I mean it doesn't need to be so troublesome... Yes! I can do it by myself , don’t bother the store manager to recruit new employees anymore!”

Ron looked at Nora and laughed out loud: "Sit down, I didn't plan to recruit again, the salary will not be less for you."

"I...it's not because of my salary..." Nora sat down on the chair and retorted, "I really don't feel tired..."

"Well, anyway, just go for it." Ron smiled, "Eat quickly, and go down to the store after eating. There should be the most customers in the afternoon. Get ready."

Nora nodded vigorously.

She will treat this hard-won job well!
