Chapter 323: Chapter 312 Gluttonous Chef

"Well... perhaps this employee is... um... rather proactive, yes, he’s extremely eager about work, so he couldn’t wait to start," said the system, stuttering a bit.

"He’s here, he’s here. Why are you acting so weird, is there a bug?" Xia Yue asked with a puzzled expression, heading towards the gate of the vacation area.

"You’re the one who’s bugged." The system shot her a scornful look.

Since it would take more than half an hour just to walk from the mansion to the city gate, Xia Yue took a patrol car. This also allowed her to give a lift and help with luggage.

At the city gate, a handsome looking man — wearing a black casual suit, sneakers, and carrying a black backpack — stood there appearing like a fresh graduate.

"This place looks nice, I wonder if it can satisfy my appetite," the man mumbled to himself as he looked around.

About fifteen minutes later, Xia Yue arrived on a patrol vehicle with the system.

Upon arrival, she saw the handsome man.

The guard at the gate informed her that this man had come to see her.

After thanking the guard, Xia Yue went over to the man.

"Hello, I’m Xia Yue, the director of this vacation area, and you must be the chef I hired," Xia Yue introduced herself in a courteous manner, with a warm smile.

The man, with a pleasant voice, replied, "Hello, my name is Ao Mi, Mi as in rice - I’m the chef you hired."

"’Ao’? Which ’Ao’?" Xia Yue asked him, surprised.

"The ’Ao’ has no four dots underneath as in ’staying up late’," said Ao Mi.

"Isn’t that the same surname as Dragon Lord Ao Ye’s? What a coincidence," Xia Yue said, laughing.

"Not really a coincidence. We’re from the same clan, just different branches," Ao Mi answered with a smile.

"You know Dragon Lord Ao Ye? What a coincidence! Let me lead you in. We can chat along the way," Xia Yue said curiously, and led him to the patrol car.

"Yes, I know him." Ao Mi nodded, taking a seat in the car as she drove forward.

"Then, as you said you are from a branch, what is your original form? A flood dragon?" Xia Yue asked while driving and focusing on the road.

"A taotie (gluttonous beast)," Ao Mi answered in a low voice.

"What?" Xia Yue hadn’t heard clearly due to his low voice so she asked again, leaning closer to him with her ears perked up.

Ao Mi kept his head down and didn’t respond, feeling nervous inside. Every employer reacted the same way upon hearing about his original form – surprise, disbelief, followed by fear.

"He said he’s a taotie," the system told Xia Yue.

"Taotie? The taotie (gluttonous beast) I’m thinking of?" Xia Yue asked in surprise, taking a glance at Ao Mi.

"What other taotie could it be? Yes, the talented eater," the system responded.

"Isn’t the taotie a fierce beast? He doesn’t look fierce in his human form. Instead, he looks like a cute bunny, all white and soft, just like a cheerful boy," Xia Yue said, still somewhat in disbelief.

"I can control myself, I promise I won’t eat too much. I’ll work hard and help you attract more customers. Please don’t fire me, I really need this job, otherwise, I’ll starve," Ao Mi looked up at Xia Yue with pleading eyes.

"So, when you’re hungry, will you eat humans?" Xia Yue asked.

"No. Besides, the system restricts it, I can’t harm humans," answered Ao Mi, shaking his head.

"That’s good, not eating humans is good. When we get there, show me your culinary skills first. If they’re indeed impressive, you can stay on for now," Xia Yue breathed a sigh of relief, as long as no one was going to get hurt.
