Did He Pull Up Her Records? A Filial Great Nephew

"Is there anything else, sisters?"

After Tang Ya put that Luckin Raw Coconut Latte into her Storage Ring, she did not leave. Instead, she stood there hesitantly, seemingly wanting to say something.

Bai Ran simply took the initiative to speak.

"Um, little brother Bai Ran, are you hiring here?"

Because of Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan had lost her work-study position.

Finding a suitable job in such a short time was extremely difficult.

"Sister Tang Ya, do you want to work here?"

Bai Ran had indeed considered hiring a receptionist to help share his workload, but given the current intensity of the work, there was no need for one yet.

"No, no, no, not me. Nannan wants to find somewhere she can work part-time."

Logically speaking, for a commoner genius like Jiang Nannan, who possessed Innate Full Soul Power and had no faction backing her, Shrek Academy's management would provide a certain degree of support.

Unfortunately, Jiang Nannan had caught the eye of the Mysterious Underworld Sect's young sect master. Given the cooperative relationship between Shrek Academy and the Mysterious Underworld Sect, the academy could only abandon its funding for Jiang Nannan.

After all, she would be taken away by the Mysterious Underworld Sect in the future rather than remain at the academy.

The academy's higher-ups were not idiots. They would not do something as foolish as making wedding clothes for someone else.

That was also why the owner of the small supermarket had chosen to fire Jiang Nannan after seeing Xu Sanshi.

It was no exaggeration to say that Jiang Nannan was now a hot potato. Any man who dared approach her would face retaliation from the Mysterious Underworld Sect.

"Why should I help you?"

Others might fear the Mysterious Underworld Sect behind Xu Sanshi, but Bai Ran did not fear it much.

First of all, the Mysterious Underworld Sect was a reclusive sect. If it were truly powerful, would it have chosen to hide away?

Second, the Mysterious Underworld Sect was merely one of Shrek Academy's many partners, and the pills sold by that sect mostly only worked on low-level soul masters.

On the other hand, Bai Ran's uncle, Ye Tian, was a proper senior who had graduated from Shrek Inner Court and currently worked in the Inner Academy. The dishes he made could even help Title Douluo, and there was an excellent chance that he would become a food-system Title Douluo in the future.

Within Shrek Academy, there truly were not many people with a stronger backer than Bai Ran.

Still, Bai Ran generally did not do anything that brought him no return.

He was not foolish enough to provoke unnecessary trouble for a woman he did not know.

Being young had its benefits. At the very least, he would not let lust go to his head.

Bai Ran: Honestly, mature women were just so-so. And I thought women started looking old once they passed eight.

"Little brother Bai Ran, please help us. Nannan is really pitiful."

Tang Ya played the emotional card, vaguely carrying a hint of moral coercion.

"Sister Tang Ya, wait a moment."

Bai Ran took out a Communication Talisman from his Storage Ring.

"Okay, okay."

A few minutes later.

"Jiang Nannan, fourth-year student of Shrek Academy's Outer Academy. Martial Soul: Soft Bone Rabbit. Level thirty-five agility-attack Battle Soul Elder.

Born a commoner. Previously conducted a transaction with the Mysterious Underworld Sect. Currently an object being pursued by the Mysterious Underworld Sect's young sect master..."

Tang Ya: Holy shit, he pulled up her records.

"No, little brother, you pulled up Nannan's records!"

"I was just checking the situation."

Even without pulling up records, Bai Ran would still know Jiang Nannan's true circumstances.

Honestly, he had no desire whatsoever to get involved with a woman whose situation was this complicated.

Those who wanted to marry Jiang Nannan in Douluo II were probably the same as those who wanted to marry Zhu Zhuqing in Douluo I—people whose brains were connected to the stars while their lower halves did the thinking.

And the Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul did not seem particularly strong either. Jiang Nannan had no outstanding battle records in the original work, and compared to the other girls, her presence was far weaker.

Rather than pay an enormous price to marry a decorative vase, Bai Ran felt it would be better to spend the same effort equipping himself with a set of high-tier Soul Tools.

"Xiaoya, let's go."

Seeing that there was no longer any possibility of success if they stayed, Jiang Nannan grabbed Tang Ya's hand and prepared to leave.

Having her painful past brought up, if Bai Ran had not been so young, Jiang Nannan would have already swept a kick at him.

"Wait, sisters, don't be in such a hurry to leave."

"Little brother, what else do you want?"

Jiang Nannan's tone already carried a trace of displeasure.

"Sister Nannan, can you do kitchen work?"

Bai Ran knew very well that what he had done earlier was extremely rude.

If he had not prepared in advance, he would never have done something so likely to offend others.

"Little brother Bai Ran, what do you mean?"

Tang Ya was getting confused by him as well.

"My uncle is short an assistant. If Sister Nannan is willing to go, I'll speak to my uncle and have him arrange something for you."

Bai Ran truly had no interest in Jiang Nannan.

But when he thought of his single uncle, he felt that it was time for him to put in some effort.

Compared to those old vultures, his uncle should prefer someone young and pretty.

Bai Ran: I'm six, and Jiang Nannan is nearly sixteen. I don't accept older-woman-younger-man relationships. (Three-Eyed Golden Lion: When we Soul Beasts take human form, our age is recalculated. So in your eyes, I count as a loli, right?)

Ye Tian: Six hundred and sixty-six. My own nephew set me up.

"Your uncle?"

"Nannan..."

Before Jiang Nannan could ask further, Tang Ya pulled her aside and began whispering to her.

Before long, Jiang Nannan returned to the front of the Coffee shop with a smile once more. She said that she had learned to cook from the age of three and had been able to handle her family's three daily meals since she was five, hoping that her junior could give her a chance to try.

Elsewhere, Ye Tian had just finished processing an eighty-thousand-year Purple Lightning Python-Snake when he received a message from his nephew through a Communication Talisman. Bai Ran said he had found him an Outer Academy student on work-study to help out.

Ye Tian did not take it seriously at all. The Inner Academy Cafeteria was so large that accommodating one work-study student was nothing; even arranging spots for a dozen or more would not be a problem.

But the next day, when the Outer Academy Martial Soul Department's famed beauty appeared before him—

My assistant was actually the Outer Academy's aloof school belle? (The first thing to do was uninstall Rotten Persimmon novels from my phone.)

Ye Tian: Was this right? Little Bai Ran, you were really killing your uncle with filial piety.

Bai Ran's motive was entirely because he felt that a coward like Xu Sanshi simply did not deserve Jiang Nannan. (Was it really not because the author disliked Xu Sanshi?)

As for whether his uncle liked Jiang Nannan, that was not something he needed to worry about.

The world of adults was something children would not understand.

"Luckin Coffee, delicious Luckin Coffee. Want a cup?"

"If no one comes, I'm getting off work."

Bai Ran did not speak loudly, making it obvious that he had absolutely no desire to work overtime.

He had the shattered feeling of being forced to come to work by the manager.

Bai Ran: Wait, aren't I the boss?

Thinking that, Bai Ran stopped pretending altogether and began packing up, ready to leave the cafeteria and return to his dormitory to sleep at any moment.
