"Praise Falan, are you no longer hiring? We're hard workers, and besides, look, we are work-study students from the Milan Magic Martial Arts Academy, our quality is definitely higher than that of ordinary people." Sura anxiously promoted himself and Ye Yinzhu.

The waiter shrugged helplessly, "I'm really sorry, we've already hired enough hands. You should have come yesterday, maybe you would have had a chance. Please leave."

Ye Yinzhu lifted his left hand to grasp Sura's slender shoulder, "Forget it, since they've already hired people, let's try elsewhere. We shouldn't make it difficult for them."

Sura initially wanted to argue, however, upon hearing Ye Yinzhu's words, he could only reluctantly nod his head.

Just as the two were about to turn and leave, the waiter suddenly called out excitedly, "Wait a minute." He took a step forward, his eyes staring at Ye Yinzhu's left hand that was holding Sura's hand, he said respectfully, "Sir, may I ask, is your name Ye Yinzhu?"

Ye Yinzhu answered subconsciously, "Yes! How do you know my name?"

The waiter cleared a path for the two of them and bowed respectfully to Ye Yinzhu, "I'm sorry for my impudence earlier, I didn't know you were a friend of the young lady. Please come in, both of you."

Ye Yinzhu blinked in surprise, "A young lady? Do I know your young lady?"

The waiter exclaimed in surprise, "You are Ye Yinzhu, right? The young lady mentioned that if a young man comes with her ring, it should be you."

A light flashed in Ye Yinzhu's mind, "Floating Orchid Villa, Floating Orchid Villa, could this be Sister Anya's place?" Only then did he suddenly remember why the three words 'Floating Orchid Villa' sounded so familiar. When he first arrived in Milan City and parted ways with Anya, she had told him that if he needed anything, he could come to the Floating Orchid Villa and find her.

"Yes. Floating Orchid Villa is a creation of the young lady herself, please come in, both of you." The waiter led Ye Yinzhu and Sura inside as he spoke.

Entering the Floating Orchid Villa, the first thing that caught one's eyes was a sea of green. This wasn't just limited to the various plants within Floating Orchid Villa, even all the furnishings and utensils were varying shades of green, revealing just how much the master of the house cherished the color. Its ambiance was lacking any sense of opulence, however, it exuded an indescribable elegance. The pillars supporting the entire building appeared to be made of green crystals.

The center of the house was open-air, allowing Ye Yinzhu and Sura to finally witness the ancient tree that they could see from outside. At least twenty people would need to form a circle for their bodies to be able to fully surround the ancient tree's trunk. Having never seen such a huge tree before, it was indeed due to this ancient tree and the transparent architectural style of the Floating Orchid Villa that the air here was especially fresh. The surroundings were spotlessly clean, and attendants wearing green clothes could be seen tidying up the place.

Sura lightly pinched the soft flesh of Ye Yinzhu's waist, whispering in a slightly annoyed tone, "So, you know the owner of this place? Were you trying to make a fool out of me earlier?"

Ye Yinzhu replied with a bitter smile, "Of course not. I found the name 'Floating Orchid Villa' familiar when we arrived, but you dragged me in so quickly that I didn't have time to think before being pulled in. Didn't I tell you? On the way to Milan, my Space Ring was stolen, along with all the money I had. When I came to Milan with the Iron Briar Thorn Mercenary Group, we were tasked with escorting Sister Anya's caravan. Sister Anya is very nice, so even if we don't find a job, it wouldn't hurt to pay her a visit."

The waiter brought the duo to a table near the center where one had a clear view of the ancient tree's trunk outside. The air here was even fresher, "Please take a seat, I will go and inform the young lady." He went straight upstairs after speaking. The stairs were built wrapping around the ancient tree and were quite unique. They were, however, positioned so they didn't touch the tree, clearly showing full consideration for the protection of the ancient tree.

The table was made of simple wood, quite spacious, and held a set of antiquated tea sets. The chairs were also wooden and dyed an ink-green color. Taking a look around, Ye Yinzhu noticed that although the first floor of Floating Orchid Villa was quite spacious, the seating was sparse. In the entire hall that surrounded the ancient tree, there were only ten tables, each separated by bamboo curtains. Most likely because the business hadn't started yet, the bamboo curtains were lifted, enabling one to see the entire hall.

Sura admired, "This is really a great place. Even the lobby on the first floor takes the privacy of customers into full consideration. And this central ancient tree, it's quite unique. I'm afraid a teahouse like this is the only one of its kind across the entire continent."

Ye Yinzhu looked down at the ring on his left middle finger. The drop-shaped blue gem was emitting a gentle aura; not strong, but the softness was very comforting. Sura also noticed the ring on his hand, couldn't help but sneer and muttered to himself, "A woman giving a man a ring? That's rare to see."

Not long after, accompanied by the sound of gentle footsteps, Anya came down from the staircase that circled the ancient tree. Today, she was dressed in a long, turquoise dress that fell to the ground, revealing her long legs. Her sea-blue hair was, as always, loosely scattered behind her. Even the strands that covered her ears were unchanged. Even though her eyes were full of surprise, they couldn't conceal her superior and noble temperament. Among all the women Ye Yinzhu had ever met, in terms of appearance and temperament, only Xiang Luan could compare with her. But Xiang Luan lacked the mature charm of Anya and had more of youthful vitality.

"Yin Zhu, have you finally remembered to visit sister?" Anya walked up to them with a smile.

Ye Yinzhu hurriedly stood up to greet her, he was always an honest person and said somewhat awkwardly, "Actually, I came here with a classmate to find work, and I didn't expect to come to your place."

Anya glanced at Sura behind Ye Yinzhu, astonishment flashed in her beautiful eyes. Looking at Ye Yinzhu, she reproached, "The spending habits of students at the Milan Magic Martial Arts Academy are always high. Why did you refuse the money I offered to you if things are so tight for you?"

Ye Yinzhu shook his head, "I can't accept your money, sister. The workload at the academy isn't heavy, so I came out to work. The money I earn should be enough to cover my tuition and living expenses."

Ever since Anya appeared, Sura's expression had been somewhat strange, "Yin Zhu, let's go since they are not hiring here. We still need to find work."

Anya smiled slightly, "There's no need to rush, let's have some tea and rest first." She nodded towards the blue-clad waiter who stepped downstairs with her. The waiter immediately turned around and left.

Anya asked Ye Yinzhu and Sura to retake their seats, settled down not far from Ye Yinzhu and asked the two of them, "What kind of job are you two looking for? Since Yin Zhu wants to be self-reliant, maybe I can help you find a suitable job."

Ye Yinzhu said, "Any job is fine, as long as it's something we can manage. Originally, we wanted to work as waiters here. I only found out that this place was yours after we arrived."
