[Xiao Miao: Boss Wen~ Why aren't you at the stall today?]
Wen Shuqiao only saw the message from the customer after she had put Cancan to sleep. After all, she had a deep impression of Xiaomiao because they had ridden together once.
Wen Shuqiao replied: 【Hello, I had to come back unexpectedly.】
Then, after thinking for a moment, she added: "Starting tomorrow, I won't be setting up my stall there anymore. Thank you for supporting my business these past few days!"
Setting up a stall was just a temporary measure, and she's made a small fortune from it recently. Wen Shuqiao and Cancan have spent most of their money on food, and besides, Tingguang Studio has booked another photoshoot with her.
Cancan's salary from filming is more than enough for him, so Wen Shuqiao is not under as much financial pressure now.
Moreover, what happened today was a real wake-up call for her. With people coming and going at the stall, it's easy for someone to take advantage of you if you're not careful.
Wen Shuqiao dared not take the risk.
Her thoughts drifted a little further as she pondered what other part-time jobs would be suitable for her while taking care of her child.
The vibration of her phone pulled her back to reality. Her attention fell on the phone, and Xiao Miao was puzzled.
[Xiao Miao: Huh? Why so suddenly? Are you planning to open your own shop or just move to a different location for your stall?]
[Wen Shu-chiao: I won't be setting up a stall anymore, nor will I open a shop. I'm still thinking about it.]
[Xiao Miao: Would you like to come and take a look at our company?]
Wen Shuqiao raised her eyebrows slightly, not understanding what she meant, but soon Xiao Miao sent a message.
[Xiao Miao: Our company actually has a cafeteria, but it was closed for renovations a while ago. Because of the renovations, one of the cooks wasn't coming, so the cafeteria became available.]
[Xiao Miao: Your braised food is so delicious! You'll definitely be a hit in our cafeteria~ What worker wouldn't want a fragrant lunch after a long day of hard work!]
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but smile as she read her words; Xiao Miao was even more fun than she had imagined.
She replied: "Thank you, but it's inconvenient for me to have my child with me. Thank you again!"
[Xiao Miao: It won't bother you~ You can let Can Can play in the cafeteria while you work~ Can Can is so well-behaved, he definitely won't run around, and we also have a parent-child room with some toys and a small bed, so he can rest when he's tired~ Besides, our company has strict security control, with 24-hour monitoring, so you don't have to worry about his safety~]
Wen Shuqiao was somewhat surprised when she saw the message from Xiao Miao. Are companies this lenient nowadays?
As if knowing what she was thinking, Xiao Miao on the other end of the line immediately sent another message: "[Besides, the cafeteria food stalls are all run by their own owners~ unlike us working stiffs!]"
Being your own boss means needing to pay rent.
Wen Shuqiao said, "Thank you, but I'll pass. I probably can't afford the rent. Could you please recommend someone for me?"
[Xiao Miao: The rent is very affordable. You only need to pay a 1000 yuan deposit to move in, and then the company will take 5% of your total earnings each month! There are no other fees~ We will sign a contract!]
Only five percent?
Wen Shuqiao became wary. In her past life, she had seen many pyramid schemes and fraudulent companies that tricked people into joining them. The conditions that Xiao Miao mentioned seemed to be tailor-made for her.
From initial attraction to now only wariness.
But just then, Xiaomiao sent another message: "And don't worry~ Our company is Shen's Group! A legitimate company!"
Xiao Miao sent me her business card, which indeed read "Xiao Miao, Secretary to the President of Shen's Group".
Xiao Miao: [You don't have to rush to refuse~ I'll send you a location, you can come and see how it is~ We don't make money from the cafeteria rent, it's just to make it convenient for our employees to eat! And to make it easier for us to get back to our work (just kidding)]
Wen Shuqiao was shocked when she saw the words "Shen Group". Isn't this the company of Canbao's uncle?
She's been so close to Uncle Shen these past few days?!
Wen Shuqiao was completely unaware of this. She looked down at the sleeping Canbao. Canbao's emotions had stabilized before falling asleep, and she wondered what he was dreaming about. At this moment, the corners of his mouth were even turned up.
If it's the Shen Group, wouldn't that be a great help for Canbao to go home?
Wen Shuqiao was undecided. In the past, she would never have hesitated, but now she was actually a little hesitant.
My mind was filled with the image of Can Can looking at me with her bright, sparkling eyes and saying that she loved her aunt the most.
Wen Shuqiao poked his chubby cheeks with her finger. She hadn't noticed before, but Canbao had grown quite a bit.
Children are like bamboo shoots in spring; they sprout up very quickly with just a little rain.
Not to mention that she's been going out of her way to cook delicious meals for him lately.
Can Can felt a tickle on her cheek, and opened her eyes groggily. When she saw it was Wen Shu Qiao, she naturally raised her hands to hug Wen Shu Qiao's wrists, and then fell back asleep peacefully.
Just like her mother, Canbao feels safe with her aunt.
Wen Shuqiao's expression softened considerably. She covered Canbao with the blanket, then withdrew her hand and greeted Xiaomiao in return.
Canbao was destined to return to the Shen family; this was a decision made from the very beginning of the story.
*
I arranged to meet Xiaomiao at 11 a.m. the next day. This way, after we walked around the company, we could also check out how many people were in the cafeteria at lunchtime.
When they arrived, Xiao Miao was already waiting at the company entrance.
Xiao Miao waved to them from afar: "Shu Qiao~ over here!"
Wen Shuqiao led Can Can over and greeted her. Xiao Miao then bent down and said, "Can Bao~ Do you still remember Auntie?"
Can Can nodded. He had seen Xiaomiao a few times and naturally remembered her.
