"Xiao Yang?" Toga turned her head to look at Yang Xiao sideways, then said, "Is he the only one in your shop right now?"
"That's right. Otherwise, why do you think I'm looking for you? It's to give you a chance to make money." Yashiro Gin said arrogantly, "When more people are hired, there won't be a spot for you. Think it over clearly."
"Oh? So you're so nice that you thought of me first?" Toga leaned closer and smiled, "Then I really have to thank you, Boss."
"Hey~ don't be so formal. If you want to work, you can start tomorrow. But you still have to go to school, right? You can come after school. I'll provide dinner. Work part-time for three hours. On weekends, you can work all day. Just take over Xiao Yang's shift," Yoshiyin said casually.
"It depends. I'll see if I have time..." Toga neither refused nor agreed, just said she'd see.
"You don't know if you have time?" Yoshiyin chuckled and said, "You have nothing to do every day, you're almost turning into a shut-in."
When Toga heard this, she glared at Toki Gin, "You're the shut-in!"
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking about this. The food is here." Wu Shiyin smiled. Just then, the waiter brought the food. Yang Xiao looked and realized it was actually barbecue.
He had actually noticed earlier that the main food here was barbecue; several nearby tables were eating it. But this stall also had other foods, including pasta and sushi.
"Xiao Yang, don't stand on ceremony, eat more. You can eat as much as you want today." Usaki Gin laughed, raised his glass, and had another drink with Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao didn't spit it out this time; otherwise, it wouldn't be good if he spat again.
Toga glanced at Yang Xiao, then looked at Wu Shiyin and said, "Can I eat as much as I want too?"
Usaki Gin shook his head and said, "Today I'm mainly treating Xiao Yang. You're just tagging along. If you come to work, I'll let you eat more."
"Gin-san, are you serious?" Toga's expression turned serious as she stared into Yin's eyes.
Yoshigin felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at like that and immediately said, "Of course I'm serious. My shop is short-handed, and Xiao Yang alone can't handle it all."
"Okay, I'll come to work tomorrow!" After saying this, she turned to the waiter and shouted, "An extra portion of what I just ordered!"
"Got it!" the waiter responded.
Pfft! Yang Xiao almost choked this time. She was actually coming to work at the office? To be his colleague?
Why did this sound so outrageous? You have to know, this is a bloodthirsty lolita. Being with her every day is very dangerous; you might not know when she'll decide to collect your blood.
"You... do you have any objections to me?" Toga turned her head and looked at Yang Xiao. "If you have something to say, better say it clearly now."
"I don't have any objections, and I don't have anything to say, but... I'll be in your care from now on!" Yang Xiao stood up and apologized. This was truly beyond his expectations.
"Gin-san, you haven't introduced us yet." Toga seemed to accept Yang Xiao's apology, and her expression improved.
Usushi Gin then remembered he hadn't made introductions yet. He immediately pointed at Yang Xiao and said, "This is Yang Xiao, the top employee at my Broken House. Seems like he's a student, just like you."
"This young lady's name is Himiko Toga. She's also a student like you. I can't say much else." Wu Shiyin looked at Yang Xiao with a smile and simultaneously picked up a skewer of meat, eating it happily.
Yang Xiao nodded, but he didn't have the urge to shake hands with Toga. He didn't want to be too proactive or attract too much of her attention.
Most importantly, he had already attracted Toga's attention twice. If this continued, something was bound to happen.
Toga wasn't very interested in Yang Xiao. She had no interest in ordinary people. A casual glance told her Yang Xiao was ordinary, though quite good-looking—but that was useless.
After the three ate for a while, Toga's food arrived. Yang Xiao almost felt like vomiting when he saw the bloody internal organs on the plate. The taste was really strong.
Although the offal had been grilled, it was at most medium-rare, which was within the consumption habits of some people abroad, but it seemed a bit hard to accept in Asia.
The corner of Wu Shiyin's mouth also twitched, but he was used to it. After all, it wasn't his first time seeing her eat this. So he looked at Yang Xiao, who also had an uneasy expression, and said, "Don't mind it. Her personal taste is different from ours."
"I understand, I understand." Yang Xiao said with a smile. How could such a cute girl be like this? Her mouth was full of blood, which looked a bit creepy.
The customers who had found her cute were also dumbfounded. They naturally saw her eating the food too and all felt a bit nauseated.
They immediately gave up on their earlier thoughts, though some still thought she had a lot of personality and was different from others.
Well, she was certainly different enough. Yang Xiao didn't say anything, just ate his skewers and drank with Yashiro Gin.
The three ate until after ten o'clock. Yoshiyin wanted to give Toga a ride, but she refused. Even Yang Xiao didn't need him to give a ride.
Yin Shiyin had no choice but to go back to the Broken House alone. Yang Xiao wandered home on foot. After taking a hot bath, he lay on the sofa watching TV but was a bit distracted.
Himiko Toga had actually joined the Broken House. She's a future member of the League of Villains. What she's involved with now is probably the dark side. What could be done?
Yang Xiao really didn't know when Toga started going down the dark path. Maybe it had already begun. But he couldn't directly stop her. Perhaps he could use their colleague relationship to see if he could pull her back.
At the very least, prevent her from joining the League of Villains. That would be equivalent to causing trouble for himself. After all, he would be entering U.A. High School in the future. Sooner or later, he would clash with the League of Villains. He didn't want to fight Toga, who had become a colleague.
"Go to sleep first, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Yang Xiao stretched and climbed into bed.
The next day, when Yang Xiao arrived at the Broken House, he found the shutter door was already open. It was only 7:50, not yet 8 o'clock.
Normally, the house wouldn't open until at least 8, and sometimes being over ten minutes late was normal.
"Hey, you came later than me?" Toga was sitting on the sofa in the Broken House, squinting at Yang Xiao outside the door. Meanwhile, Wu Shiyin was holding his head, looking like he hadn't woken up yet. Toga had come too early, waking him up at 7:30 and not letting him sleep.
Yang Xiao smiled. Wu Shiyin had brought this on himself this time. He probably wouldn't have the chance to sleep in anymore.
"Don't you have to go to school?" Yang Xiao walked into the Broken House and said to Toga.
"School?" Toga sneered, "Go if you want, don't go if you don't. What's the big deal? By the way... don't you have to go to school too?"
