Chapter 118: Embarrassment

Thinking about how miserable Lin Ye was just now, you will know how difficult those shop owners are.

Going into forestry, one must have suffered a lot.

Otherwise he wouldn't look so haggard.

For a moment, Jiang Xin was actually a little curious about what happened during this period of time when she was unaware.

What happened when Lin Ye went to those shops to borrow the faucets?

It seems that these are not questions that cannot be asked, right?

After all, she is Lin Ye’s boss now, so it doesn’t seem too much to ask about where Lin Ye had been just now.

After all, it is during working hours. As a boss, it is reasonable to ask employees where they are going.

Therefore, Jiang Xin's curiosity was genuine, so she asked Lin Ye in a serious tone:

"Is it true that this dollar was not spent, or was there no chance to give it at all?"

"Just tell me the truth and don't avoid my eyes. I don't like people lying to me."

"Just now, during the time you were away, when you went to those restaurants, what happened?"

Jiang Xin had a stern face, with a seriousness that didn't belong to her age.

Lin Ye, a man in his late thirties, instantly became timid after seeing Jiang Xin's eyes.

This may be the subordinates' natural fear of their bosses.

However, after all, it was such an embarrassing thing. If Jiang Xin hadn't forced him to ask, he really didn't want to say it.

But just now, he also heard what Jiang Xin said. She said she didn't like people who lied.

If he wasn't forced to do so, Lin Ye wouldn't want to lie, right?

Besides, to him, Jiang Xin was his benefactor. How could he lie to his benefactor?

In fact, he just didn't want to lose face, but now that Jiang Xin had already pressed the issue, he had no choice but to tell Jiang Xin the truth. He just hoped that he would tell her those things later.

Jiang Xin: Don't laugh at him, he's laughing too happily.

That would be very embarrassing for him.

It's a bit embarrassing!

After all, he is a grown man in his late thirties.

Moreover, he really cherishes this job now, and he doesn't want to lose this hard-earned job because of a lie.

At the same time, this job also gave him hope for a new life, so Lin Ye chose to tell the truth and told Jiang Xin everything that had just happened.

I don't care about face anymore.

Keeping your job is the first priority!

He couldn't let Jiang Xin be disappointed in him because of such a small lie.

To put it bluntly, deep down, he doesn't like people who tell liars.

He prefers people who are honest and trustworthy.

And just now, judging from Jiang Xin's expression, it was obvious that Jiang Xin had already seen through everything.

It's just that he doesn't know the details, so there's no need for him to hide it any longer.

There is no need to know that it is a lie and continue to touch Jiang Xin's bottom line.

So, Lin Ye told Jiang Xin everything that had just happened in a serious manner.

After listening to Lin Ye's words, Jiang Xin fell into silence.

She wanted to laugh, but was afraid that if she laughed, Lin Ye would feel too embarrassed.

After all, he didn't expect that so many outrageous things would happen when Lin Ye went to wash the lunch box just now.

I didn't expect that just because I went to borrow a faucet to wash my lunch box, I would be treated as a malicious competitor in the industry and kicked out. Not to mention using money, I was pushed out before I could even finish my words. It's so embarrassing just thinking about it.

Jiang Xin thought to herself that she must not laugh out loud. To be honest, she couldn't hold it back any longer.

Then Jiang Xin burst into laughter.

There was a hint of embarrassment and helplessness on Lin Ye's face. He was truly speechless.

He felt that what happened just now when he was borrowing the faucet was too outrageous. In the past, he would never have thought that he would be regarded as a colleague who was maliciously trying to disrupt other people's business.

Isn't this an insult to his character?

He, Lin Ye, is not that kind of person!

Jiang Xin also didn't expect that Lin Ye's process of washing the lunch box would be so bumpy.

After laughing for a long time, Jiang Xin realized that it seemed a bit too unkind for her to laugh at others like that. After all, her share was in the lunch box.

After laughing, I heard Lin Ye say that he ran a long way to the river to wash his lunch box.

Jiang Xin suddenly felt that Lin Ye was too honest.

If it were her, she probably wouldn't wash the lunch box because she kept bumping into obstacles everywhere.

Anyway, no matter how dirty it is, it can't be that dirty. It's not a task that must be completed. At worst, I can wash it together when I get home in the evening. It's no big deal.

Jiang Xin thought about it and realized that after all, this lunch box was used every day, so it was inevitable that it needed to be cleaned.

When she first got this lunch box, she was considering the iron lunch box, which was quite common in that era, and she didn't think about how difficult it would be to clean.

If that's the case, when she goes to the state-owned restaurant to buy food tomorrow, she can just take the disposable takeout box in her space and throw it away after eating.

This way, it is convenient and saves trouble. You don’t have to rack your brains to find a place to wash the lunch boxes.

And she knew that the small river on the edge of the town was still some distance away from their vegetable market.

If Lin Ye went there to wash lunch boxes every day, it would not only waste time but also make him tired.

Selling goods in this vegetable market every day is already quite hard work. If you add the task of washing lunch boxes to it, it would probably be even more tiring.

There is no need to delay them from doing bigger things because of such a small matter. After all, making money from setting up stalls is the top priority.

Besides, there are so many lunch boxes in her space that even if she throws away one after each meal in her lifetime, she will never be able to use them up.

So, there is absolutely no need to worry about this small lunch box.

After Jiang Xin thought about it, she looked at Lin Ye's embarrassed expression and stopped what she was about to say to tease him.

Tong Linye said:

"How about this, let me take care of the lunch box tomorrow."

"You don't need to worry about this matter. Your first priority is to set up a stall in this vegetable market. You don't need to worry about the rest."

As for the one dollar that Lin Ye handed over, Jiang Xin thought about it and finally took it.
