Chapter 1346: Chapter 36: Great Harvest! Digging a Pit to Bury Someone (Requesting Monthly Votes)_4 Chapter 1346: Chapter 36: Great Harvest! Digging a Pit to Bury Someone (Requesting Monthly Votes)_4 The so-called “night school” was actually a “basic training class” established by the Wang family to help new “migrant workers” quickly adapt to the environment. Since these sessions were usually held at night, they had become habitually referred to as “night school.”

She worked at a hotel now, so naturally, she also attended the hotel’s “night school.”

The night school taught a hodgepodge of things, from job training for various hotel positions to “literacy classes,” and occasionally they would hold “vocational competitions” and “basic knowledge contests.” If you did well in these contests, there were usually quite a few rewards—sometimes cash prizes, sometimes material ones, and sometimes even promotions and raises.

Green Ji arrived quite early.

When she got there, only a few people were seated in the room. As such, she immediately spotted a familiar figure—Zhiji.

Compared to her, who wore a professional suit and looked radiant, Zhiji’s situation was much less enviable. She wore the gray cloth robe of the hotel’s logistical staff, durable and dirt-resistant but hardly pretty.

That face, usually sharp and spirited, now bore a somewhat sullen expression.

“What’s the matter, little Zi? Didn’t have a good day today?” Green Ji glanced at her and then looked away, using Divine Sense to communicate telepathically with a hint of jest in her voice.

This restaurant had one big advantage—the strongest person stationed here was at most in the Heavenly Human Realm, which meant, aside from laying a hand on someone, other aspects were much more convenient, such as telepathic communication via Divine Sense, without any need for concern about being discovered.

“Could it go smoothly?” Zhiji’s eyebrows twitched, and she communicated somberly, “You, on the other hand, have it easy, just sitting at the front desk doing registration, crunching some numbers. Unlike me, I have to clean up over a hundred rooms every day, so busy I don’t even have time to take a breath.”

It’s not that she was complaining about the hard work; after all, with her Purple Abode Realm physique, doing such a bit of work was nothing in terms of physical exhaustion. But she had worked hard to crawl up from the bottom of the Demonic Dynasty, achieved the Purple Abode Realm, and had become accustomed to being waited on, so why would she be willing to serve others?

Attending to the Master, at least she could sponge off some benefits, but what was this? What could people of the Spiritual Platform Realm, the Qi Refinement Realm, or even those ordinary people without any cultivation base offer her?

And really, there was something wrong with the Wang family.

Such a luxurious hotel, yet they allowed ordinary people without cultivation bases to stay, and even used glass lamps, glassware, and silk quilts for the guest rooms of ordinary people. Did they deserve it?

The only thing that gave her a bit of consolation might be not having to wash the swapped bed sheets and duvet covers.

Those items used for Artifact Refining created by the Wang family were really useful. They just needed to send the dirty sheets and duvet covers in, and they would come out washed, dried, and all they had to do was fold them. If she truly had to hand wash those sheets and duvet covers, she would go insane.

“Who asked you to look down on the instructional materials provided by the Wang family and refuse to study them properly?” Seeing Zhiji so downcast, Green Ji had no sympathy but instead scoffed inwardly, “If you had put in the effort like me, even just a little bit of extra attention, you wouldn’t have fallen to this state.”

As intimate disciples of the Chi Mei Demon Master, her relationship with Zhiji was naturally not very harmonious. To vie for the Master’s attention and affection, the two often clashed.

It was only because they were now both in enemy territory and besides each other had no one else to trust, that she spoke with a bit of restraint. Otherwise, in the past, she would have taken the opportunity to mock mercilessly.

“Hmph~ Don’t get too smug too early.” Zhiji snorted angrily, “Those things aren’t difficult. Even if I start learning now, there’s still time. Last time during class, the Teacher even complimented me, saying that it won’t take long before I’ll definitely be transferred to work in the main hall.”

Once she surpassed Green Ji, then she’d be the one to mock her!

“Okay~ then you keep working hard~” Green Ji inwardly chuckled with schadenfreude, but then her thoughts turned to recent developments, and she could not help but feel the humor fade.

She asked Zhiji, “Have you heard from the Master?”

“No.” When she mentioned this subject, Zhiji’s face also showed worry, “Taking the opportunity to go shopping, I managed to contact Yuyu Ji. But she hasn’t heard from the Master either; she said the Master followed Wang Anye into the Great Wilderness Marsh, and then, no news came back. I don’t know what’s really happening.”

She wasn’t worried about the Master facing danger, but under the current circumstances, not being able to contact her Master made her anxious.

It’s not like she could truly stay and work at the Wang family’s hotel forever, could she?

For the salary of two Qian Gold a month that the Wang family paid, what was it good for? In the Demonic Dynasty that wouldn’t even cover the cost of a meal.

As the two conversed, the other people in the room were also chatting amongst themselves about everyday trivial matters, from what they ate that day to which town store sold cheap but good rouge, and then about which family’s young master was the handsomest and had the best temperament, and so on and so forth.

No one knew who brought it up, but suddenly the topic turned to Wang Anye.

“I wonder how long Young Master Anye will be away this time. If it’s like last time, several months of absence, then we won’t get to see him for a long while,” sighed a female employee, supporting her chin with her hands and smiling foolishly, “I still remember the sight of Young Master Anye inspecting the hotel last time—so handsome and gentle, simply the epitome of a Prominent Family’s young master set in my heart. I wonder when he will come visit again~~”
