Lin Xu was speechless.

You're addicted to setting people up, aren't you?

But when I think about it, considering how Wei Qian was favored and then looked down upon by Elder He, and those people didn't tease or mock him, it felt only right for Wei Qian to set them up before leaving.

As he was contemplating this, he suddenly grasped the meaning of Wei Qian's words and looked at Qin Wei with some surprise, asking, "You went to Building One?"

Wei Qian said, "A few days ago, Chef Xie traded him for a pastry chef from Building One. It seems he also swapped the receptionist from Building Two, the pretty one with a very friendly smile, with the cheongsam girl from Building Six."

Lin Xu was utterly astounded.

Is Senior Brother arranging all this specifically so I can poach their staff?

But wouldn't doing so risk getting beaten up by Chef He from Building One and Chef Qiu from Building Six?

When I see Senior Brother later, I'll definitely have to thank him.

That way, when Senior Brother gets beaten up, I'll feel a little less guilty.

Putting his thoughts aside, Lin Xu looked at Qin Wei, who had been transferred to Building One, and asked, "Master Qin, my restaurant is about to open, and I'd like to invite you to come work for me. Would you be willing to switch workplaces?"

Since Senior Brother had arranged everything so neatly, I might as well be direct.

The moment he finished speaking, Qin Wei gave a wry smile. "I'm... already... on... on the pirate ship!"

For the past few days, Wei Qian had been dragging him along whenever he applied for leave. If Qin Wei didn't jump ship, he wouldn't be able to take a single day off for the rest of the year.

Lin Xu pushed Dou Wenjing's WeChat contact card to him and said, "I'll send you the general manager's card. Add her as a friend. Discuss your salary and benefits directly with her. Even though we're friends, don't hesitate to state your terms and ask for what you deserve."

Qin Wei nodded. "I... I don't have many... demands. As long as... as long as everyone doesn't... doesn't dislike me, that's... that's fine."

"Don't worry, Master Qin. The atmosphere in my kitchen is quite good. You know Che Zai and the others, don't you? They're all straightforward—no scheming or forming cliques."

After chatting a bit more, Lin Xu turned to Wei Qian and said, "Tomorrow night, I'm planning to make crayfish at my place and treat everyone to dinner. Remember to bring Master Qin along, alright? We'll have a small family-style meal before the grand opening."

When Lin Xu mentioned his return in the group chat last night, Zeng Xiaoqi immediately announced that her throat had fully recovered, wildly hinting at the crayfish feast he had promised her.

Lin Xu felt that he would definitely need Zeng Xiaoqi's help with publicity.

And the core team members of the restaurant should also get together beforehand, so preparing a delicious crayfish meal was a top priority.

When eating crayfish, people can't be on their phones; they can only chat.

Everyone would get to know each other after just one meal. This would make it much easier to cooperate on publicity or other matters later on.

Wei Qian's spirits instantly lifted at the mention of crayfish. "Sure, sure, sure! I still fondly remember that barbecue we had. Make sure you prepare plenty of crayfish this time!"

Qin Wei said with some difficulty, "Tomorrow night, I... I'm on duty..."

"No problem. Just swap your shift for a Spring Festival holiday. Plenty of people would be willing to trade with you."

In everyone's perception, the Fishing Platform was already the pinnacle of the industry. People were desperate to get in, and no one ever wanted to resign. That's why no one grew suspicious when Wei Qian kept swapping shifts.

Of course, Wei Qian was also quite cunning. He always found different people to switch shifts with. After confirming a swap, he would insist they keep it confidential and not tell anyone.

After chatting a little longer, Lin Xu bid farewell to the two, who left arm-in-arm to go have some fun. He then drove straight to Building Six.

Hmm, he had originally planned to visit his Senior Brother at Building Two.

But since his Senior Brother had transferred Shu Yun to Building Six, he decided to take care of important matters first.

As Lin Xu drove past Building Two, Qiu Zhenhua was in a small tea room upstairs, gazing out the window while savoring tea. He curiously remarked to Xie Baomin, who was busy with the tea set, "Isn't that white G63 your junior brother's car? Why did he drive past your Building Two without stopping in to see you?"

Xie Baomin turned his head to look and commented casually, "He's probably gone to see Old Dai. Old Dai promised to teach him how to make dry dip seasonings, and he must be eager to learn... Here, Qiuqiu, try this exquisite gold-tipped eyebrow tea."

Qiu Zhenhua put down his teacup and replied with a smile, "No more for me, no more. I need to get back and check on the dinner preparations. There's a banquet for foreign dignitaries at Building Six tonight. It's not large-scale, but it's very important. I'm worried the staff might get complacent, so I need to supervise them."

As soon as he heard Qiu Zhenhua was leaving, Xie Baomin quickly said, "Wait a moment, Qiuqiu! I have some Big Red Tangerines here, aged over fifteen years. The person who gave them to me said the quality is exceptional. Could you take a look for me?"

Qiu Zhenhua liked to drink tea. Upon hearing about fifteen-year-old Big Red Tangerines, his interest was immediately piqued. "I never thought you, Old Xie, would have such fine tea hidden away! Bring it out, bring it out, let me have a look."

Hearing this, Xie Baomin stood up and began rummaging through the drawers in the small tea room, searching for the premium Big Red Tangerines he had 'acquired' from Building Ten.

His junior brother was clearly heading to Building Six to find Shu Yun.

He absolutely had to keep Qiuqiu stalled so he wouldn't run into him.

「At the Building Six reception desk.」

Even after a week, Shu Yun still felt somewhat unaccustomed to the environment here. What she found even harder to adapt to was…

I bought a pile of little toys for Dundun, but now I can't even watch him play with them. I heard the little fellow went back to Boss Lin's hometown with him. I wonder when I'll ever get to see him again.

The thought of Dundun's adorable, clumsy appearance brought a pang of sadness to Shu Yun.

They say cats have short memories. When we meet again, he probably won't remember me, will he?

Just as she was lost in these thoughts, she saw a white G63 approaching from a distance and then stop in front of Building Six.
