Chapter 728: Chapter 714: Such an Awkward Sales Pitch

"It can talk?! A cat demon?" Xia Yu was startled when the System started to speak.

"Not exactly, but you can think of it that way," Xia Yue shook her head but didn’t know how to explain to him why a cat could talk, given its special circumstances.

Xia Yu: ...

System: ...

"You can also think of it as a person, anyway, it’s not just a simple cat demon," Xia Yue said with a dry laugh, seeing that they both fell silent.

[You’d better not talk anymore, the more you say, the more outrageous it gets.] The System looked at her speechlessly and said.

"Let’s talk about talent then. According to what you said, my talent is still okay?" Xia Yu looked at the System and asked.

[Yes, it’s quite decent, at least better than the average person.] The System went along with him, quickly shifting the topic.

"That’s good," Xia Yu said with a relieved smile.

"If you want to cultivate properly, working every day won’t do," Xia Xi told him.

"Xixi makes sense. If you want to cultivate properly, like before, working overtime until midnight and going to work again at eight or nine in the morning, you wouldn’t have much time for cultivation.

When you start cultivating, you need ample sleep too," Xia Yue chimed in from the side.

"I understand, I’ll start practicing these next few days. If I don’t work, how will I earn money? Cultivation resources also cost money," Xia Yu said, looking at them.

It’s not like I won’t have to spend money just because I started practicing; it’s likely going to cost even more.

"You could come work at my place, I have quite a few masters here, and if you encounter any problems with cultivation, you can ask someone for advice at any time

Moreover, the cultivation environment here is particularly good. If you work here, the speed of your cultivation will definitely be four to five times faster than if you were elsewhere," Xia Yue said with a smile, seizing the opportunity to lure him over.

"Can you make that decision?" Xia Yu asked with a smile.

"Absolutely. Besides, it wasn’t me who wanted to poach you first, but our Resort Area’s Manager Zheng, who heard you were coming and wanted to rope you in to help manage the place.

That way, he’d have more time to cultivate himself.

I also think it’s a good idea," Xia Yue said, smiling as she sold out Zheng Tang.

"I’ll think about it. Even if I resign, I can’t come over that quickly. Work still needs to be handed over; it’ll take about ten days to half a month," Xia Yu was actually tempted.

"That’s fine. Let’s go, dinner time is almost here; let’s go eat," Xia Yue nodded, not pressing him to make an immediate decision.

The group arrived at the Dining Hall, helped themselves to their favorite dishes with their own trays, and sat down at a four-person table.

"The food here is really good. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time," Yan Mo said with a smile after taking a few bites.

"Of course, it’s one of the perks of our Resort Area, the same as what we offer our guests. Occasionally, Ao Mi Peng Zu and others, when they feel like it, make dim sum, which is not for sale outside

With more people coming in the day after tomorrow, there will be even more good stuff," Xia Yue said.

"Brother, I really think you should consider working here. There’s good food and drink, and the cultivation environment is also great. For a newbie like you, this is the best option," Xia Xi looked at Xia Yu and said.

"Do you plan to work here too?" Xia Yu asked Xia Xi.

"No, I’m just temporarily staying here to help her with some things. Once the Resort Area reopens, I’ll leave," Xia Xi shook her head, her work being flexible, but after being out for so long, she still needed to go back and check things.

"Mm-hmm," Xia Yu nodded.

"Mr. Xia is here, welcome, welcome," Zheng Tang’s eyes shone bright when he saw Xia Yu. He walked over with a plate in his hands and then squeezed a chair in from the side, beaming with excitement at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu felt like Zheng Tang was looking at him the way a dog looks at a big bone.

"Boss, has your brother registered yet?" Zheng Tang looked at Xia Yue to inquire about the situation before broaching his proposal.

"Yes, Yan Mo registered him," Xia Yue nodded.

"Mr. Xia, do you want a more brilliant career? Want to become stronger? Our Resort Area is very suitable for you at this moment. Not only can you continue your previous money-making ventures here, but you can also receive guidance from renowned masters and enjoy a superior learning environment.

Consider joining our Resort Area," Zheng Tang said excitedly, making his sales pitch to Xia Yu.

Truth be told, this spiel made Xia Yu’s face twist with embarrassment, even Xia Yue and Xia Xi Mo Yao were left looking shocked.

After finishing his pitch, Zheng Tang looked at Xia Yu with anticipation, waiting for his response.

The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.

"Ahem, ahem, Manager Zheng, perhaps you’d like to eat first, let him think over this kind of thing," Xia Yue hurriedly said to Zheng Tang, slightly embarrassed, and glanced at Xia Yu.

"Ahem, ahem, I just got too excited seeing such an outstanding talent like Mr. Xia, so afraid to miss the opportunity," Zheng Tang laughed awkwardly, "You all eat, I’m going to join Xiaoan and the others for a meal; I won’t disturb you any longer." Zheng Tang also realized he had been too eager and felt a bit embarrassed, so he stood up with his plate and ran off.

Watching him scamper away, Xia Yue couldn’t suppress her laughter.

"Hahaha, that was too funny. It’s the first time I’ve seen him so flustered, hahaha," Xia Yue tried not to laugh too loudly.

"Ahem, ahem, hehe, it really was awkward, it sounded just like those course sales pitches," Xia Xi nodded affirmatively.

"You can tell he really wants you to stay here," Mo Si said, restraining her laughter as she looked at Xia Yu.

"Big brother, make sure to give it some serious thought," Xia Yue said to Xia Yu with a grin.

"Mmm, I’ll definitely consider it seriously," Xia Yu nodded, as the pitch had indeed given him quite the startle.

But he planned to give the proposition some serious consideration.

After finishing their meal, they prepared to visit the old Master and Mistress Xia’s courtyard.

Recognizing the need for privacy, Mo Si tactfully walked away, leaving the five younger family members to chat.

"Grandma and Grandpa, we’re here!" They knew their Grandparents were inside by the lights on as they approached the courtyard. Pushing the gate open and walking in, they shouted cheerfully into the house.

Entering the house, they saw the old Master and Mistress Xia having tea.

"Grandma and Grandpa, good evening. Look who’s here to see you!" Xia Yue ran over to them, smiling as she spoke.

The old Master and Mistress Xia looked up, puzzled, and then spotted Xia Yu joining Xia Yue and Xia Xi.

"What brings you here?" the old Master asked with surprise.

"Is that Xiaoyu? How come you’re here, and for what?" the old Mistress asked joyfully.

"Grandma and Grandpa, good evening," Xia Yu greeted them with a smile, and then continued, "I arrived this afternoon; I’m here for my annual leave."

"Then your timing couldn’t be worse; Yueyue and the others were planning to shut down the Resort Area in the next few days," the old Mistress frowned slightly and said to him with a hint of regret.
