The next morning, Rong Shang saw a police car parked at the entrance of the alley on her way to work.
At that time, passersby were talking about it. From what they were saying, Rong Shang learned that the murder case from eight days ago had not yet been solved.
The man who was stabbed several times that day was later taken to the hospital by ambulance, but died despite resuscitation efforts.
Thinking back to that night when she witnessed everything, to be honest, even after hearing that the man was dead, Rong Shang's heart remained completely unmoved.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at the entrance of the Taekwondo gym.
At that moment, the woman at the front desk saw her and immediately rolled her eyes at her.
"Hey, this table is too dirty. Go get a cloth and wipe it clean."
We entertained so many people yesterday, and the tea table is still covered in a layer of dust; it's filthy.
But with the weather so cold, Xiao Yao herself didn't dare to go into the water.
Since Bai Xiaoyu is new, it's perfect for her to do these things.
Rong Shang knew that she wanted to settle a personal score, so she remained calm and stepped inside.
Without saying a word, Rong Shang walked right past her.
Xiao Yao looked at her, and she repeatedly said "Eh" several times.
To be honest, Xiao Yao was unhappy about being ignored by a newcomer.
She left the front desk and strode up to Rong Shang, blocking her way. "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?"
The tone was so aggressive; he probably just wanted to push her.
Rong Shang glanced at her slowly, then turned her face away. "Excuse me, I'm here to be the boss's assistant, not to do odd jobs."
There was clearly a cleaning lady here, but Xiao Yao ignored her and just wanted to bully her.
Just then, she rolled her eyes at her and sneered, "Oh, being an assistant makes you so great."
"Let me tell you, that's how it is here. You've been ordered around since you first arrived."
Did you think that just walking in the door meant you were getting a full-time job?
joke.
"Oh." Rong Shang said coldly, "Then may I ask if you have the final say on the rules here?"
If such a rule really existed, she wouldn't be the only one saying this.
Not wanting to waste a single word on her, Rong Shang gave her a cold glance and walked away again.
Xiao Yao's expression changed.
"Bai Xiaoyu!"
She stomped her feet in anger.
The man had just come in from outside when he heard her cursing. He frowned and walked over. "What happened?"
"It's still white—"
Well.
Turning around, Xiao Yao immediately shut her mouth when she saw the man in front of her, "Boss."
"No, it's nothing."
Although the boss has a good temper, it's best not to let him know that she bullies Bai Xiaoyu behind her back.
Straightening her clothes, Xiao Yao's expression changed to a beaming smile again. "Boss, have you had breakfast yet?"
She glanced at the man in front of her, before he left.
She quickly grabbed a still-warm bag of breakfast from the counter and handed it over, saying, "Boss, I bought an extra breakfast this morning. If you haven't had it—"
"I've already eaten, thank you."
His gaze was gentle, and his voice was soft.
But every time the man said something, it was a rejection.
Although she wasn't scolded, for some reason, Xiao Yao felt even worse than if she had been scolded.
Excessive gentleness is no different from indifference.
"But--"
She looked at the man, as if she wanted to say something, but a faint shadow swept past her.
"Work hard."
A gentle voice came from behind him; he was gone.
At this moment, a cold wind blew in from outside the door, just like her heart, chilling her to the bone.
