While the mother and son of the An family were rejoicing over An Yan's first place in the examination, many other people were also concerned about the matter.

For example, those who went to the official website of the college to check the rankings.

For example, Zhao Xinxin, who thought she was sure to get the top spot, was beaten by a boy who came out of nowhere.

Another example is the teachers at the college, especially those who invigilated the entrance exam.

In terms of timeline.

The teachers at the college were the first to know the rankings of the entrance exams, and after seeing the final rankings, they discussed them among themselves.

"This Zhao Xinxin is Zhao Chengxian's daughter. She's really good."

"I've paid attention to this student before, and she's really in the top 10."

"But how come I've never heard of this top student? Do you know? "

"Wait, this first place student made a high quality body potion? How is that possible? "

"According to this student's exam information, he must have been in Old Zhang’s charge, right? Where is Chang? Come over here, tell us what's going on with this student! "

"Yes, Zhang, why are you sitting in the corner?"

Soon, a depressed-looking Zhang was surrounded by people asking questions about the student who had come first in the exam.

The questioning got so bad that he could only slap his thigh, "You're asking me what's going on? I want to know what's going on too! "

If he had known that this candidate would come first in the examinations and that he would be able to make a high quality potion, he would have watched his candidate's every move, even if he didn't like his behaviour, instead of crossing him out of his surveillance.

He regretted it!

Unfortunately, even if he regretted it now, he would not have the chance to witness the birth of a high quality potion again.

Apart from the teachers at the college, the next people to notice An Yan's name were the candidates who went to the official website to check their rankings.

After checking their own rankings, they naturally focused on the top three, whose information was displayed in a different colour from theirs.

An Yan, who ranked first, was the first to appear in their sight and memory. However, most of their ideas were very simple: This An Yan was really powerful. He could make a high-quality medicine in the entrance examination!

While their thoughts were simpler than others, Zhao Xinxin was furious.

Where did this An Yan come from? Why did he take the number one spot, overshadowing her name?

And his first test result even said "High Quality Potion." How could a small, unknown person produce a high-quality potion?

It was ridiculous!

Zhao Xinxin felt that there must be something wrong with the academy's testing equipment that had led to such a ridiculous result, but she couldn't ask for a new test and could only sulk at home.

An Yan had no idea of what was going on outside, nor was he interested in knowing.

He had won the first prize in the entrance examination, and An Luo, the troublemaker, had finally left. So the atmosphere in the An family has become very different in the past few days.

Of course, with the reward money, the An family's quality of life has also improved significantly.

They can now afford to buy more nutritious and better-tasting premium nutritional supplements. They could also occasionally buy fresh vegetables to satisfy their taste buds.

But even so, An Yan was looking forward to the part-term job. It wasn't a bad idea to earn more money.

The day before he had to leave for work, An Yan received his work clothes from the store manager's friend. He put them on to make sure they were okay, and waited until the next day to go to work.

 An Yan now knew that he would be working at the Cheng family's home. He knew that the main part of his job was to help prepare the Cheng family's second youngest son's bar mitzvah in the kitchen that day, but he would have to wait until he got there to find out more.

The next morning, An Yan got up early, changed into his shirt and trousers, fixed his hair, and left the house excitedly.

As a result, he went out too early. When he arrived at the Cheng house, he found that he was the first of all the part-term workers to arrive.

He looked around at the luxurious surroundings and was at a loss as to what to do. He then heard a middle-aged man say to him, "You're the part-time worker Uncle Wang found, aren't you? Since you're here, don't just sit around; go with Xiao Li and help unload the goods."

An Yan nodded hastily and said nervously, "Okay, I'll go over there."

Once the work began, the nervousness quickly dissipated. An Yan first unloaded the goods, then put the ingredients that needed refrigeration into the refrigerator, and then helped to clean and disinfect the tableware that needed to be used.

The morning soon went by in a flurry of activity.

During the break, the steward of the Cheng family gave each of the part-timers a packet of high-grade nutrition and a bottle of water. He instructed them, "The VIPs will be coming one after another in the afternoon, so try to avoid them. But if you can't avoid them, don't be nervous. Just say you're one of the Cheng family's servants. Do you understand? "

But An Yan thought it was impossible for them to meet those distinguished guests from their current workplace.

When the break was over, An Yan was once again in the thick of things.

In the end, they were part-term workers, so they didn't have a fixed job description, but that's why they were the busiest group of people.

In addition, An Yan was not one to be lazy, so he was called on to do one thing right after he finished another.

It was after four o'clock in the afternoon when a woman in her thirties suddenly came and said to the steward, "Steward Liu, it's time to pick the fruit from the orchard, or it might be too late."

At the back of the Cheng family home is a sizeable orchard. It brings the Cheng family a considerable amount of income, in addition to their own food.

The fruit for this banquet is intended to be picked from this area.

Mrs. Cheng had explained that in order for the guests to enjoy the freshest and tastiest fruits, it was best to pick them in the afternoon; otherwise, they would not be fresh if they were left for a long time.

It was already after 4 pm and the banquet was about to start in a few hours, but no one had gone to pick the fruit.

Steward Liu was so busy that he had forgotten about this matter, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will ask someone to pick the fruit."

He turned his head and saw some of the workers looking his way. They had obviously heard the conversation between the two and wanted to take over the job.

Picking fruit is not an easy task, but one can sneak a bite when the steward is not looking. So, from this perspective, one can understand why this job is so popular.

Steward Liu was so busy, and seeing these people poking their heads made him a little angry. He also saw a young boy in the corner who was recording data with his head down and didn't even glance over here. This made him feel a little better.

"You..... young man, come here." Steward Liu waved to An Yan in the corner.

An Yan didn't even notice it at first. It was only after a worker touched his arm that he looked up and jogged over with his book: "Steward Liu, what's the matter?"

"You go to the orchard and pick fruit."  Steward Liu saw An Yan's face and recognised this man.

He was the young man who had come an hour earlier this morning and had been working tirelessly until now.

An Yan didn't know what the benefits of fruit picking were; he just thought it was a new job. He thought of the work he had just been given and not finished, so he was a bit tangled. "But I haven't finished recording these goods yet. Can you wait for me to..."

Steward Liu thought that the young man was a little silly. He has a better job and still wants to continue doing what he was doing.

However, this made Steward Liu more satisfied with An Yan. Although it is true that he is a bit silly, such a hard-working and diligent part-time worker who is not picky or selective is the most solid.

"Just leave the work to the others; you go and pick the fruit," Steward Liu ordered directly. He said to the steward of the orchard beside him, who had not yet left, "He will be responsible for this. You keep an eye on him."

The steward immediately responded, "Okay, you come with me."

So An Yan just handed over the book to someone else and obediently followed the orchard steward out.

All the servants around An Yan looked at him with envy and jealousy, but the choice had already been confirmed. Even if they were greedy, it was useless.

An Yan didn't know what the others were thinking, but when he followed the steward to the orchard, his mouth watered at the sight of the fruit-filled trees.

But he quickly forced himself to wake up. He had come to help pick the fruit, not to eat it, so he had to control himself!

Just as An Yan was struggling to tear his eyes off the fruit trees and was ready to roll his sleeves to start the work, the steward nearby handed over a list: "This is the type and quantity of fruit needed for today’s banquet. I’ll let the orchard workers pick the fruit. You wait here first. "

After thinking about it, the steward added, "Or you can just walk around."

From Steward Liu's attitude towards this man, he must think highly of him, so the orchard steward thought it would be alright to let him take a walk around and eat a few fruits.
