The first ray of morning sunlight gently illuminated the front door of the inn through the thin mist, bringing new hope and vitality for the day. Xiao Xiangzi stood at the threshold, her eyes revealing anticipation and plans for the new day. She knew that every day was an opportunity to earn more profit, and every guest could bring new business opportunities.
Turning back to the lobby, she saw that Mo Deqian had already started to busy himself. His movements were skilled and orderly, each step seeming carefully considered. From his brisk yet meticulous pace, one could sense his wholehearted dedication and serious attitude towards the new life.
At the inn, Mo Deqian began with basic chores, and his diligence and focus were evident even in the most ordinary tasks. Whether it was sweeping the floor, wiping tables, or welcoming guests, he insisted on completing them to the highest standard. His attention to detail and pursuit of perfection made these daily tasks stand out.
The inn's other staff and regular guests quickly noticed Mo Deqian's uniqueness. They were amazed by his extraordinary focus and diligence, and gradually began to show him friendliness and acceptance. Sometimes, they would even offer work-related advice or assistance to Mo Deqian, who, although not very talkative, always expressed his gratitude with a nod or a brief "thank you."
Xiao Xiangzi observed Mo Deqian with a hint of admiration in her eyes. She approached him and said with a smile, " Mo Deqian, you did a great job. I really appreciate your work attitude."
Mo Deqian lifted his head and responded calmly, "Thank you, I'm just doing what I should do." His words were brief and direct, yet they revealed a sense of determination and humility.
Xiao Xiangzi smiled slightly and made a decision in her heart. She believed that Mo Deqian was a valuable asset to the inn. She began to consider how to better utilize his abilities, not only for the operation of the inn, but also to maximize profits. In her view, Mo Deqian's seriousness and focus were the qualities she was looking for that could bring practical benefits.
Once, a regular customer accidentally knocked over a teacup, spilling tea everywhere. Before others could react, Mo Deqian quickly picked up a cloth, carefully wiped the floor clean, and reassured the customer not to worry. This attention to detail and thoughtfulness surprised everyone present, leaving a deeper impression of Mo Deqian.
As time passed, Mo Deqian began to learn more skills, such as brewing tea, simple cooking, and even the art of communicating with guests. Each step of his progress brought Xiao Xiangzi a sense of satisfaction. She watched Mo Deqian transform from an unknown helper to an indispensable part of the inn, feeling an indescribable sense of pride.
In the bustling life of the inn, Mo Deqian also gradually began to build friendships with others. His aloofness and old-fashioned ways were gradually accepted by everyone, even becoming a unique charm. Although he didn't communicate much with the other inn staff, they had already established a tacit understanding and trust between each other.
One afternoon, a group of martial artists arrived at the inn. They rudely entered the inn, making a lot of noise and disturbing the usual tranquility of the place. Mo Deqian remained calm in this situation, handling the guests' needs methodically. His composure even caused the martial artists to tone down their arrogance.
In the evening, when the inn had returned to its calm state, Mo Deqian stood by the window, gazing at the stars in the night sky. His eyes seemed to hold endless stories, yet he remained silent. Xiao Xiangzi approached him and said softly, " Mo Deqian, you have adapted well to life here. I don't know about your past, but you are welcomed here."
Mo Deqian turned around and looked at Xiao Xiangzi, responding calmly, "Thank you, Xiao Xiangzi. I will continue to work hard."
As Xiao Xiangzi watched Mo Deqian walk away, she pondered silently. Mo Deqian's past may be full of mysteries, but she believed that with time, these mysteries would be unraveled. She was filled with anticipation for Mo Deqian, believing that he would bring more stories and possibilities to the inn.
As the days passed, Mo Deqian's life at the inn gradually fell into place. His daily routine expanded beyond serving and cleaning to include learning various operational skills of the inn. His remarkable learning ability quickly grasped the basic knowledge of accounting and management. Xiao Xiangzi saw this and increasingly admired him.
One evening, an old man in coarse clothes arrived at the inn, looking exhausted. Mo Deqian took the initiative to receive him, offering the old man a cup of hot tea and a quiet seat. His thoughtfulness and consideration made the old man feel very comfortable. The old man gratefully nodded at him, praising, "Young man, you have a good heart, and a boundless future ahead of you."
Mo Deqian just smiled quietly without saying much. His calm and reserved demeanor left a deep impression on the guests.
In the following days, Mo Deqian began to take on more complex tasks, such as assisting Xiao Xiangzi with some external affairs of the inn. Although his approach was rigorous, it was highly efficient, making the operation of the inn more smooth.
In this process, Mo Deqian gradually developed a harmonious relationship with the other staff at the inn. They began to be curious about Mo Deqian, the former mysterious guest, and often tried to chat with him during their free time to learn about his past. Although Mo Deqian still spoke little, his attitude was always friendly, gradually opening the door to communication with others.
On that day, the sky was clear blue, the sun was shining, and a young swordsman entered the inn, his eyes filled with the enthusiasm of seeking a challenge. When his gaze fell on Mo Deqian, a strong warrior's intuition made him feel that Mo Deqian was extraordinary. The swordsman smiled and walked towards Mo Deqian, saying, "Brother, you have a commanding presence, and I believe your martial arts are extraordinary. Would you be willing to exchange a few moves with me?"
Mo Deqian turned around, his face showing little expression, but his eyes revealed a hint of interest: "Alright, I will do my best."
The two of them arrived at the backyard of the inn, where a spacious open area became their sparring ground. Mo Deqian drew out his long sword, which was simple yet sharp. The swordsman also drew his own sword, its blade shimmering in the sunlight.
The sparring began, with both of them stepping back a few paces before quickly rushing towards each other. The swordsman's swordsmanship was swift and sharp, each strike was like a lightning bolt, but Mo Deqian remained calm. Although his swordsmanship was not as flashy as the swordsman's, each move was precise and rigorous, effectively parrying the swordsman's attacks.
The spectators and staff on the sidelines were drawn to this sparring match, astonished by Mo Deqian's unexpected martial arts skills. Despite his usual reticence and old-fashioned style, his precision and rigor in swordsmanship forced people to reassess him.
As the sparring deepened, Mo Deqian gradually demonstrated more skills. Each of his attacks was filled with calculation and wisdom, while the swordsman continuously adjusted his swordsmanship, attempting to find Mo Deqian's flaws. The two of them shuttled back and forth in the sword light, and for a moment, the backyard seemed to have turned into a fervent martial arts arena.
In the end, this sparring ended with smiles from both sides. The swordsman expressed extremely high praise for Mo Deqian's martial arts: "Brother Mo's swordsmanship, although simple, is unfathomable. It is truly admirable."
Mo Deqian sheathed his sword and calmly responded, "Brother Jianke, your swordsmanship is also outstanding. Today's sparring has been very helpful to me." With that, he turned and returned to his work at the inn.
This sparring not only increased Mo Deqian's prestige in the inn, but also deepened Xiao Xiangzi's understanding of his abilities. She silently marveled at such rare talent. Not only did he excel in his daily work, but he also had such accomplishments in martial arts. A glint of scheming flashed in Xiao Xiangzi's eyes as she began to consider how to better utilize Mo Deqian's qualities for the greater benefit of the inn.
After this exchange, Mo Deqian's position within the inn was further elevated. This was not only due to his martial arts skills, but also because of his calm and introverted personality, as well as his serious attitude towards work. As Xiao Xiangzi observed all of this, she believed that Mo Deqian would not only become a pillar of strength for the inn, but also bring more stories and excitement to it.
In the night, Xiao Xiangzi sat quietly in her room, contemplating the future of the inn. She had a plan in her heart, a plan for the future of Mo Deqian and the inn. She believed that as time passed, these plans would be realized one by one, bringing greater glory to her inn.
