Chapter 355: Lighting the Night
As Chu Yue spoke, her eyes were charming and seductive, and her alluring gaze looked slightly downwards, landing on Lu Zhanlin's body.
Some reactions simply cannot be hidden.
Lu Zhanlin didn't even need to answer, the man's body had already given the answer in the most honest way.
Late at night, the air in the room suddenly became hot.
Then, countless ambiguous and rapid breathing sounds were heard.
Keep the lights on all night.
The next day, Chu Yue got up, rubbing her aching body. She put her palm on her lower back, and just as she was about to rub it, the pain in that spot became the most severe.
Because last night, a pair of hands pinched her waist all night, making it impossible for her to escape.
The man's palm was thick and big, while her waist was thin, and it was completely controlled by him. The long-term tossing and turning left red and swollen finger marks, so it hurt when touched.
After tossing and turning all night, Lu Zhanlin still had some conscience. He got up early in the morning and saw the red marks on Chu Yue's waist. He took some medicated oil and rubbed it on her waist, which relieved a lot of pain.
Chu Yue still felt her face getting hot when she thought about the passionate lovemaking last night.
Although she was the one who initiated this matter, the man was a little too "violent".
She couldn't bear it, she really couldn't bear it.
It must be because I was hungry for a long time recently that this happened. We really can’t be separated for so long in the future.
This morning, although Chu Yue felt sore all over, she didn't have time to stay in bed because there were too many things to deal with.
The first thing she did was not to go to the hospital to visit Ye Zhaodi and Ye Xiaoman. The hospital was safe. Ye Zhigang and his wife were still detained in the police station and would not come to seek revenge so soon.
So Chu Yue went to see Chen Fengying and Xia Xiaolan first.
It was a coincidence that Xia Xiaolan had nothing to do and was learning how to knit a sweater from Chen Fengying. She was holding two bamboo sticks and a ball of wool in her hands, and was winding them together bit by bit.
After Chu Yue entered the room, she exchanged a few simple greetings and explained her purpose.
After hearing this, Chen Fengying and Xia Xiaolan widened their eyes slightly, with surprise written all over their faces.
Chen Fengying asked in surprise, "Sister Chu, do you mean to ask us to help you run the store?"
Chu Yue nodded. "The original employee had some family problems and needs to rest for a while. I also have some things to do, so it's not convenient for me to open the store every day. But the grocery store can't be closed all the time, it still needs to be open as usual. If you are willing, I can pay you wages, one dollar a day."
"One piece..."
Chen Fengying's eyes widened when she heard this. She was shocked by the high salary and blurted out exclamation. But she felt embarrassed after saying it and subconsciously covered her mouth.
She thought for a moment and said, "Sister Chu, this isn't about the pay. You and Yuanbao have been so kind to my Dazhuang. Now that you need help, I'll do it for you even if there's no pay! It's just standing there selling things. It's easy, not tiring at all, and much easier than working in the fields. But I've never done this before, so I don't know what it's like."
Chen Fengying felt quite ashamed when she said these words. She would work in the fields, or raise pigs and chickens, but she really did not work as a salesperson selling things, and she had never even been to a factory.
Chen Fengying was panicking.
Chu Yue, however, was full of confidence in Chen Fengying. "Sister-in-law Chen, after I came to our compound, it was you who introduced me to the neighbors in the compound, and it was you who took me to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. You are warm and sincere to people. Even if it's just a job of selling things, you will definitely be able to get the hang of it quickly, and you will do it better than anyone else."
"...Really?" Chen Fengying felt light all over after hearing Chu Yue's words. No one had ever praised her like this before.
"Of course it's true! You don't believe in yourself, but you also don't believe that my judgment of people will never be wrong." Chu Yue was more confident than Chen Fengying and said firmly.
After hearing this, Chen Fengying carefully imagined herself standing in a grocery store and working as a salesperson.
Isn't it just like those girls standing in the supply and marketing cooperative, decent and glorious, what an enviable job.
Chen Fengying was enjoying her thoughts, but she still had a problem. "Sister Chu, let me think about it carefully. Selling things isn't difficult, but you have so many things in your store, and the prices are all different. And I have to give change. I... I'm not good at math. You know my son Dazhuang's test scores are all like mine. He's really not smart. It would be bad if I caused you to lose money."
Chu Yue had thought about this in advance.
"Sister Chen, don't worry. We've got Xiaolan." Chu Yue turned her head to look at Xia Xiaolan and said, "Xiaolan, I know you don't like interacting with too many strangers. Just stand behind Sister Chen and don't speak. Let Sister Chen attract customers, and you stay by the side to count the bills, check the prices, and find the change."
This is also why Chu Yue wanted both of them at once.
Xia Xiaolan was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect that she would be shouldering such an "important" task.
The days in the compound with the army were a bit boring, especially for the newlyweds who had no children. Xia Xiaolan would just read books at home every day and occasionally talk to her familiar sister-in-law. Otherwise, she would not learn knitting from Chen Fengying to pass the time.
If she agreed to Chu Yue, it would mean she had a nine-to-five job, which was not tiring and easy, and she could go to the city every day.
When she thought of this, Xia Xiaolan's eyes lit up.
At this time, Chu Yue gave another killer temptation and handed over several free coupons from Caesars Cake Shop.
"This is my extra sincerity. It's not included in the wages. You can come over to eat whenever you want. The store isn't that busy, so you can have some time to slack off."
Chen Fengying and Xia Xiaolan looked at each other, both of them excited to try.
In that case, the two nodded vigorously and agreed.
Afterwards, they left the compound with Chu Yue and went to the city. The grocery store that had been closed for a long time finally reopened. Chen Fengying and Xia Xiaolan were shocked and regretful when they saw the mess on the floor of the store. They immediately began to clean up and try their best to recover Chu Yue's losses.
Chu Yue found Ye Zhaodi's account book, which contained the store's inventory and the price of each item. She handed it to Xia Xiaolan and told her some general information.
While they were cleaning up, a passerby came up to ask questions.
"Is this shop open or has the owner changed? Will it still be doing business? I ran out of the sesame oil I bought from you last time, so I bought a bottle from another store that wasn't as fragrant as yours. I'm thinking of buying another bottle."
Without waiting for Chu Yue to speak, Chen Fengying had already walked over and started chatting with the guest in a familiar manner.
"Of course we have to do business! Our boss had a family wedding the day before yesterday, so we closed for a few days. Now that it's over, we're open again. You must come to our store to buy things next time. The things sold in the supply and marketing cooperative are not as good as ours. You must know that after you have eaten there. When you go back, remember to tell your neighbors that our store is open again and you can come to buy things as usual."
Even Ye Zhaodi couldn't match Chen Fengying's enthusiasm, so Chu Yue didn't have to worry at all.
After completing the instructions, Chu Yue left with peace of mind and went to the hospital.
