"Am I that kind of shameless scoundrel?" Jiang Yi hit Deng Jianguo with his chopsticks. "Love is sacred and cannot be desecrated. As for charm, it's definitely not lacking. What I lack is the opportunity to get to know Xiao Nuan. As long as we spend more time together, she will definitely come back to me."
After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he stylishly flicked his hair.
Xiao Moxi happened to see him hitting Deng Jianguo with chopsticks, and thought to himself, no wonder he was able to get a job collecting money. It turns out that Boss Deng was doing it because of Jiang Yi. The two of them really have a good relationship.
“Of course you’re not a shameless scoundrel,” Deng Jianguo whispered, leaning closer. “A woman blinded by love is capable of anything, especially when she’s facing a top student like you. Not only are you handsome, but you also have excellent grades and a good family background. What woman could resist a man like that?”
"None of these will work for Xiaonuan."
"So, you need to make use of Xiao Moxi to achieve your goal. Once she's bewitched by you, you can send her back to sow discord between her brother and sister-in-law. Before long, they'll definitely get divorced."
"Look at you, always coming up with terrible ideas." Jiang Yi picked up his chopsticks and was about to hit him again.
Deng Jianguo was smart this time; he slipped away before he could even put down his chopsticks.
"Boss, the customer just gave 5 cents less for this order. What should we do in this situation?" Xiao Moxi quickly took out a bill and gestured to Deng Jianguo as he approached. "They didn't give 5 cents. Our dishes always have a few cents left after the discount. If everyone does this, it will be chaos."
"Who told you to charge less?" Deng Jianguo reprimanded her rudely. "We've already given you a discount. There's no rule about charging 5 cents less. This order is off the table, but don't do it again. If you do this, you'll break the rules. From now on, everyone will charge you less, and we'll see how you handle that."
"Oh," Mersey replied, bowing his head. "Then I'll make up the 5 cents short myself."
"This isn't a farmers' market; you can't haggle," Deng Jianguo said sternly. "We're a franchise store. All dishes have the same price. Even when we have discounts, all dishes have to be approved by the head office owner. We can't just disrupt the rules of this industry, understand?"
"Understood." Xiao Moxi didn't even dare to look at Deng Jianguo. "However, we need to prepare more change. What if we run out of change and have to give someone a penny?"
She had just thought of asking the customer for a dime and then giving them five cents in change, but she realized that there weren't many cents left in the cash box. So, she took it upon herself to charge the customer five cents less.
"Don't worry about that. Just come to me if you don't have any change." Deng Jianguo pointed to the office inside. "There's a 500 yuan reserve fund in there, along with various denominations of change. I'll give you a key later. If you run out of change, just go in and exchange it yourself."
"Okay, boss, I understand."
"Don't call me boss." Deng Jianguo frowned. It wasn't that he disliked the title of boss; no one would want to be a boss, but this shop wasn't his. The real boss was Jiang Yi. "Just call me Manager Deng."
“Manager Deng…” Mo Xi stammered.
"Also, don't tell anyone about your salary," Deng Jianguo whispered.
"Why?"
"Because your salary is higher than others, it would put me in a very difficult position if my other colleagues found out."
"I see?" Xiao Moxi offered to take a pay cut. "Then Manager Deng, please be fair to everyone. I'll take the same salary as everyone else. Don't give me a higher salary just because of Jiang Yi. That's not fair to anyone."
"Do you really want the same salary as everyone else?"
“Yes.” Mo Xi nodded vigorously. “Manager Deng letting me collect the money is already a huge favor; I dare not ask for a higher salary.”
"Do you know how much other people earn for part-time jobs?"
"It doesn't matter how much or how little. If others can do it, then I can do it too."
“Others earn 20 cents an hour for part-time jobs. Now that you know, are you going to abandon what you just said?” Deng Jianguo watched her as if she were watching a good show.
“Two cents it is.” Xiao Moxi bit her lip and said firmly. “I can earn two cents a day by working four hours, which is 24 yuan a month. That’s enough for me. Manager Deng, then pay me two cents an hour.”
"Alright, this is your own request." Deng Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Moxi was the only exception in the store. If the other employees knew, they would definitely feel resentful.
After Deng Jianguo left, Xiao Moxi breathed a long sigh of relief.
Everyone loves money, but Xiao Moxi felt that one should not accept undeserved rewards. Since everyone else was earning the same salary, why should he take a higher one? Even if he did take it, he would feel uneasy. Rather than that, it was better to be open and honest, without having to hide anything from this person or that person.
Deng Jianguo immediately told Jiang Yi about this, as it was something Jiang Yi had specifically instructed him to do. Now, Xiao Moxi was voluntarily asking for the same part-time salary, and it had nothing to do with him, the person in charge.
"She really said that?" Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Xiao Moxi meaningfully. He thought to himself, "This wild girl is interesting. She clearly wants to make money, but she still refuses the benefits that are within her reach."
"Okay," Deng Jianguo said. "Then I'll pay her salary according to the standard rate?"
"That's settled then." Jiang Yi waved for him to leave quickly, somewhat annoyed that Deng Jianguo was in the way.
As soon as Deng Jianguo left, he placed one arm across his chest and the other hand touching the tip of his nose. His mind was filled with the image of him and the wild girl, forehead to forehead, nose to nose, lips to lips...
After finishing his meal, Jiang Yi looked at Mo Xi for a while before going into his office. He had reserved an office in each store. The office wasn't large, but it had everything he needed, including a full set of office supplies and a small bed for him to rest alone.
Moxi was collecting money at the counter. At eight o'clock, Deng Jianguo asked another girl to replace her.
After finishing the handover, she carried her handbag into the office and found Jiang Yi asleep on the small bed. She checked the time, then roughly shook him awake, yelling, "Jiang Yi, wake up, wake up! How dare you sleep in someone else's office? That's so rude! Get up!"
Jiang Yi was having a sweet dream. In his dream, the girl he was kissing was sometimes Xiao Nuan, sometimes Mo Xi...
Startled awake from her dream, she slowly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Moxi's face magnified as she bent over. She quickly covered her chest with her hands, thinking, "How could I dream of kissing this wild girl?"
This is unbelievable!
He even slapped himself in frustration.
"Are you still half asleep?" Xiao Moxi saw him slap himself and raised her little hand to pinch his nose. "Slapping won't wake you up. Let me pinch your nose for you. I guarantee it will be so sore that you'll be wide awake."
