Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

Chapter 1388: You’re A Real Gentleman

“My lord, you can’t make comments like that. Princesses are good, but one shouldn’t have too many of them,” Mag quickly said gravely.

God knew that even the service staff member that he picked out on a trip was a princess; one even dropped from the sky to his door while he was at home, and there were also some who weren’t princesses initially, and then turned into them...

There were so many examples that he had simply already lost count.

Mag then discussed the railroad constructions that connected to Vic Mountain with Michael and Rolan. The 200 km railroad of phase one was already completed, and Chaos City was connected with the most important southern city of the goblins—Tatari. The building and testing of the locomotive were basically completed, and they were about to invite Mag to the base to conduct the final commissioning so they could ensure that they could enter into the trial run phase.

After the conversation, Mag bade his farewell and prepared to leave. Michael sent Mag out, and he curiously asked, “Boss Mag, you have been gone for so many days to collect the ingredients, so what is the new product that you’re going to release today?”

“Crayfish,” Mag replied smilingly.

“It sounds like delicious seafood.” Michael smiled.

“Indeed. I have spent a lot of effort to obtain this crayfish.” Mag nodded in agreement. The current upheaval on the Demon Islands should have been called: War of the Crayfish.

“I will definitely go and try it when I have the time.” Michael signed up in advance.

“We will await you respectfully.” Mag nodded with a smile.

Mag left the Gray Temple from the side door with the wooden box. He only flagged down a horse-drawn carriage after he reached the adjacent street. This discussion had lasted for two hours, so he had to rush back to prepare for lunch service now.

The carriage turned on the main street, and Mag was about to lower the curtains when he suddenly noticed Rena who was helping an old lady as they walked on the edge of the street. He quickly asked the coachman to stop the carriage.

Mag raised up the curtains, and shouted, “Rena.”

Rena looked around before she saw Mag in the carriage. Her eyes lit up. “What are you doing here, Boss?”

“I came out to run some errands, and I happened to see you.” Mag smiled, and then his gaze landed on that old lady that Rena was holding. Perhaps he should have said a middle-aged lady, but as she was wearing a cotton jacket that was full of patches on her very skinny figure, and had plenty of white hairs and a hunched body, she did indeed look like an old lady. Her complexion was sickly pale, and she resembled Rena. Mag quickly said, “How do you do? You must be Rena’s mother.”

“Mother, this is my boss, Mr. Mag.” Rena swiftly introduced them.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Mag. Thank you for taking care of Rena. She always talks about how good you are to her.” Clarince smiled to Mag warmly. Although she had a hard time smiling, it still gave people a warm feeling.

“Rena is a very outstanding employee whose capability is exceptional. It should be me who should be thanking you for cultivating such a wonderful daughter,” Mag humbly replied before continuing, “Do you live near here?”

“No, we live in the north of the city. I brought my mother to see a doctor today, and now I am sending her home. I will rush to the restaurant after this.” Rena shook her head, and apologetically said, “I might be late... but I will try my best to run over.”

Clarince released Rena’s hand, and sternly said, “You don’t have to send me home, Rena. I can walk home slowly by myself. Go to work now. You shouldn’t hold up the restaurant’s operations.”

“But Mother, your body...” Rena looked at Clarince worriedly.

“The doctor already said I am fine, so just go to work with a peace of mind,” Clarince interrupted Rena with a resolute voice.

“Actually... I didn’t come to rush her to go to work...” Mag was a little panicky. Why did he feel like an unscrupulous boss? However, it was probably due to such a good family education that poverty didn’t make Rena become a bad person.

“Madam, please hop in. I will send you two home.” Mag alighted the carriage and smiled at Clarince.

“No. Mr. Mag is already so busy. You shouldn’t be wasting your time on a useless person like me.” Clarince quickly shook her head.

“If we don’t send you home, Rena will definitely be very worried about you at work later, and she won’t be able to work well.” Mag smiled at Clarince, and gently continued, “The carriage will get you home very quickly. It won’t take us long to then return to the restaurant together.”

“Boss...” Rena was already looking at Mag with reddening eyes.

“This...” Clarince looked at Rena, and then at Mag. She seemed to be quite hesitant and conflicted.

That coachman was already lowering the wooden steps as he smilingly said, “Old Madam, please get in. You don’t always get to meet such a nice boss.”

“Then I will have to bother you.” Clarince was afraid that her delay might have instead wasted Mag’s time. She expressed her gratitude, and then slowly boarded the carriage with Rena’s help.

Mag reboarded the horse-drawn carriage too, and he immediately lowered the curtains to keep the cold air out there.

“Rena, tell the master your address,” Mag instructed Rena.

“Mm-hm.” Rena nodded before lifting the curtain to tell the coachman an address. The carriage quickly turned around and drove toward the north of the city.

“I am so sorry. I have caused trouble for you,” Clarince said with an embarrassed expression to Mag who was sitting opposite to them.

“You’re our elder. This is only a small gesture that I should make. If I had known Rena had to bring you to see the doctor today, I definitely wouldn’t have let her go to work today,” Mag swiftly consoled. He did indeed blame himself a little for not realizing certain aspects of his employee’s life.

Clarince had wanted to say something, but she suddenly had to cover her mouth with her handkerchief as she coughed violently.

Rena quickly smoothed Clarince’s back with worry in her eyes.

Mag saw that Clarince was coughing until her face was red, as if every cough was making her very painful. He frowned as it seemed like Clarince’s illness wasn’t as simple as she said.

Clarince only stopped coughing after a while. Mag even saw a tinge of blood on the handkerchief she was clutching in her hands.

“I’m sorry to let you sit in the same carriage with someone like me,” Clarince said to Mag apologetically. She was so nervous that she didn’t know where to place her hands.

“You are making me nervous when you say that. You are Rena’s mother and also my elder. I hope I didn’t cause you any burden,” Mag apologized.

Clarince smiled at Mag. “You’re a real gentleman. I am very glad Rena could meet a boss like you.”

The horse-drawn carriage stopped, and Mag and Rena assisted Clarince out of it. Mag’s heart sank when he looked at the small dilapidated building situated in the slums. For a patient, living in a place like this was going to worsen her condition.

Moreover, the restaurant was located at the opposite end of Chaos City from here. It was difficult to imagine how much time Rena had to spend walking to the restaurant in the morning and how she had to walk back to home alone after work.

Although Chaos City was safe, to a maiden, the slums in the night was still very dangerous.

“Rena, you and your mother will move to the employees’ dormitory. I have prepared a dormitory for you,” Mag said to Rena on their way back to the restaurant.
