Even the two staff mbers standing to the side were stunned, a bad feeling creeping into their hearts.
’Wait... am I about to lose my job?’
"Your photos are just too good! They’re more than enough for a solo photography exhibition!"
Su Youji looked at Lin Shen excitedly, her hands clasped to her chest, her eyes filled with adoration and respect for him.
"Are you a professional photographer?"
"I think I am."
"Then, when you have so free ti, could you take a few photos for too?"
’Shit!’
’I knew this would happen!’
Lin Shen hadn’t even reacted yet, but the two people with Su Youji were already complaining and grumbling in their heads.
’What the hell is this?!’
’I just followed her to a Cat Cafe, how did I end up losing my job?’
"Hmm... I’ll think about it."
Lin Shen decided to play hard to get, stroking his chin and feigning a conflicted expression.
But Su Youji clearly wasn’t one for such little gas and directly offered paynt.
"Is ten thousand a session okay? Or you can na your price."
’Ten thousand?’
Although Lin Shen was wealthy and not particularly interested in money, the figure did startle him a little.
Not many people could afford that price.
’I didn’t expect Su Youji to be a rich girl!’
’Then again, it makes sense. After all, she’s a top-tier figure in the ani world.’
"I don’t need money."
Lin Shen gave a slight smile, which made Su Youji’s bright eyes instantly dim. Her tone carried a hint of pleading.
"Then what will it take for you to help with a photoshoot?"
To be honest, Su Youji was reluctant to let Lin Shen go.
Of course, it wasn’t just because he was handso; other aspects of him were attractive to her as well.
First, he was the manager of a Cat Cafe. For a cat lover like Su Youji, this was a fatal temptation!
Second, his build and looks were perfect for cosplay.
Su Youji had always worked solo. Whenever an event required her to partner with others, she would inevitably be verbally harassed by so of the male guests.
This annoyed her to no end, so the idea of finding a fellow enthusiast to accompany her began to form.
And Lin Shen fit the bill perfectly!
Third, his photography skills were the most impressive Su Youji had ever seen.
A single short film from him could make soone an internet sensation, and his photos all had their own unique atmosphere.
His talent was undeniable!
Taking all these factors into consideration, Su Youji really wanted to be friends with Lin Shen.
Coincidentally, Lin Shen was thinking the sa thing.
After so thought, he chuckled lightly.
"Because of the new store opening, I’ll be pretty busy lately and probably won’t have ti for a photoshoot. How about I contact you when I have so free ti?"
"No problem!"
As long as she could confirm that Lin Shen was willing to work with her, Su Youji was already overjoyed.
After chatting for a while longer, she decided not to disturb Lin Shen’s work anymore and got up to leave.
"I’ll be going now, then. Goodbye!"
"Mm."
After watching Su Youji leave, the smile on Lin Shen’s lips never faded.
’Her na suits her. Yuji really is cute.’
At 12:00 PM, business at the cafe finally slowed down a little.
But the number of custors had only dropped from around 100 to about 80.
In reality, it was still very busy.
So, Lin Shen ordered pizza delivery from a nearby place, allowing the staff to grab a quick lunch and fill their stomachs whenever they had a spare mont.
Of course, when serving custors, they definitely couldn’t be chewing on food or have crumbs around their mouths.
Therefore, everyone ate in shifts; there was no ti at all to sit down and relax.
The afternoon, however, beca everyone’s nightmare.
The number of people in the cafe suddenly surged again, even more than in the morning!
Especially between four and five o’clock, right before dinnerti, the cafe was packed to the gills.
This ti, Lin Shen couldn’t manage a smile. Exhaustion was written all over his face.
It was even more tiring than climbing a mountain or running a marathon!
’So draining!’
’No way!’
’Why is business this insane?’
’A Cat Cafe isn’t supposed to be like this!’
’Aren’t they supposed to be a sunset industry? How did mine end up looking like an erging one...?’
Lin Shen couldn’t figure out why his cafe was so popular, but this kind of thought would only make his competitors want to beat him senseless.
’You’re asking , you punk?’
In the end, Lin Shen, who had only planned to drop by and check on the cafe, ended up lending a hand all the way until eight in the evening.
"Please co again!"
After seeing off the last group of custors, Lin Ping hung a "Closed for Cleaning" sign on the door.
Even soone as diligent and hardworking as her, a model of a good wife and mother, was physically and ntally exhausted. She kept rolling her shoulders and neck to soothe her tense muscles.
anwhile, Qi Hao and the others had long since collapsed into their chairs, dead to the world.
Even the cats were curled up in their spots, looking utterly drained of energy.
Only Lin Shen still had so Spirit, and he smiled as he thanked everyone.
"It was the first day of business. Thank you for all your hard work, everyone."
"Boss, you never said business at your cafe would be this good!"
Because Lin Shen didn’t put on the airs of a rich man, the staff, in addition to respecting him, would sotis banter with him like friends.
This made him smile knowingly.
"It’s the grand opening, after all, so everyone’s just coming to check out the commotion. It’ll probably quiet down tomorrow."
"Boss Lin."
Having been promoted to manager, Qi Hao had tallied up the day’s revenue to report to Lin Shen.
"Today’s custor traffic was 800 people. Ticket sales were 32,000. We sold 700 desserts and drinks, which, at an average price of 20, cos to 14,000. Cat treats are 5 per portion, with total sales of 5,000."
"For a grand total of 51,000."
"..."
Honestly, when they learned that the first day’s revenue had exceeded fifty thousand, not only was Lin Shen a bit dumbfounded, but the others were also in utter disbelief, their faces masks of shock.
’Holy shit!’
