Gu Jingmo said, "Go check it out tomorrow. Since she won't let you go back to the store, there must be something wrong there."
Xia Jin sighed and said, "This is the only way. I hope it's not what I think it is, that there is something wrong with the store staff."
"It was fine when we left, so it can't be their problem."
Gu Jingmo opened the door and said, "If the salary you offer cannot satisfy your employees, then it will be difficult for them to find a place with a higher salary than you offer. So don't worry, they are not fools."
Xia Jin walked in carrying her things and heard Gu Jingmo say, "I hope so. The human heart is the most unpredictable. They have been doing this for so long and handling so much money all day long. It's not impossible that they might become greedy."
"Especially being able to get in touch with the kitchen and get a position. I've been working here for so long that I've almost figured out the recipes. What if I want to go out and work on my own? It would be better than making money here."
Gu Jingmo smiled and said, "Baby, there are not many spicy hot pot restaurants in this county. Aren't their businesses not as good as yours? And opening a store requires capital. If they had the courage to take out so much money in one go, they wouldn't have come to work for you before."
"If you have that kind of guts, you can do anything. You can earn more by setting up a small stall."
Xia Jin thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Forget it. We'll know when we meet Chen Xin tomorrow. I'm exhausted after traveling all day."
After saying that, he put the things on the ground and lay down on the sofa. Gu Jingmo looked at Xia Jin lying on the sofa and said with a smile: "Then we will have a simple meal tonight, and you can go to rest after eating."
Xia Jin said sullenly, "I can do anything."
Gu Jingmo looked at the ingredients in the kitchen. They hadn't been home for several days, and there was nothing edible in the kitchen. Gu Jingmo said, "How about I turn on the stove and cook some noodles?"
"OK."
After dinner, Xia Jin soaked her feet and went to bed. Xia Jin hugged her quilt and took a deep breath, thinking that home was still the best. The bed was so comfortable, and the quilt seemed to be warmer than outside.
Xia Jin had a good sleep. The next morning, the two of them ate noodles again. After eating, Gu Jingmo went out to have a meeting with the team members. Xia Jin packed up the things he brought from his father at home.
I cleaned the house again. After all, I hadn't been home for a few days, so the floor was still a little dusty. I was so tired last night that I only washed the things I used and didn't take care of anything else.
After cleaning, Xia Jin packed some apples, pears, and persimmons from her space and prepared to take them to Chen Xin's house. Xia Jin took the bus to buy some gifts for Chen Xin's parents.
This time, Xia Jin did not go to the department store to buy things. After all, his store was next to the department store. If something really went wrong in the store, he would easily be discovered by the store employees if he went to buy things by himself, and it would be difficult to deal with it later.
After buying things, Xia Jin took a bus to Chen Xin's family compound. Although Chen Xin wrote the address on a piece of paper for Xia Jin, Xia Jin still had to look for a long time outside before finding Chen Xin's home.
Xia Jin climbed to the third floor with her things and knocked on the door of Chen Xin's house. At first, an old lady's voice came from inside. Xia Jin thought to herself that I must have gone to the wrong place, but the address she left was here.
The person inside didn't hear Xia Jin's reply and called out again, "Who is it?"
Xia Jin quickly said, "Hello, I'd like to ask if this is Chen Xin's house. I'm her classmate and I'm here to play with her."
Just as Xia Jin finished speaking, the door was opened from the inside. A very kind old lady stood at the door and said, "Xinxin's classmate, come in quickly. Are you the good student deskmate that Xinxin often mentioned, Xia Jin?"
"Grandma is me."
Xia Jin got permission and went in with her things. Looking at the clean floor, Xia Jin asked, "Grandma, do you want to change your shoes? The soles of your shoes are a little dirty."
"It's okay, it's okay, just come in like this."
Xia Jin said: "Okay, oh, by the way, this is a gift I bought for you, I hope you like it."
"Look at you, you came here to hang out with your friends, what kind of gifts did you bring? You're wasting money. Next time, just come directly. You don't need to bring anything. It's not easy for you either."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "It's okay, grandma. Chen Xin has brought me gifts before."
Chen Xin heard the noise and ran out of the house. Seeing Xia Jin coming up, she gave him a bear hug and said, "You're finally back. I missed you so much after not seeing you for so many days."
"You know, after so many days of separation, I found that I can't get used to life without you, so I decided to go to the capital with you. I'm almost bored to death without you."
Xia Jin hugged Chen Xin and said, "Okay, then you should do your best. I will supervise you."
Grandma Chen looked at the two people and said, "You go ahead and do it. I'll go wash some fruit for you. And Xinxin, your friends are coming, so please treat them well."
"Got it, grandma. Come on, Ajin, go to my room."
Xia Jin was pulled into Chen Xin's room and sat on Chen Xin's bed. Chen Xin looked at Xia Jin and asked, "Where have you been for so long? Do you know where I went to your house and didn't find you? I was shocked. Later, it was your store clerk who told me that you went to the city."
"If it weren't for them, I would have thought you were deceived by that scheming man Gu Jingmo."
Xia Jin said: "I went to look for my biological father. I left in a hurry and didn't tell you. Besides, where could Gu Jingmo trick me to? I'm not stupid."
Chen Xin said: "Women in love are all fools."
"And why did you suddenly want to look for your father? Didn't he just ignore you? And did you find him this time?"
Xia Jin said happily, "I found her. I wanted to find her because my mother Liu Xiu always comes to my shop to make trouble. It's not a solution to do this all day long. I can't punish her too harshly. After all, in the eyes of the public, no matter what she does wrong, she is still my mother."
"In order to completely get rid of her, I thought of my father. It would be time-saving and labor-saving to find him. No one would say anything if a father went to the stepfather's house to seek justice for his daughter."
"When I went there, I was hoping for a lucky break. I thought if I found him and he got married and had a family, I would come back and think of other ways to solve the problem. If not, everyone would be happy."
Chen Xin said, "That's right. Xia Qingqing's family treated you so arrogantly, wasn't it because they had your mother as their support? What happened later?"
Xia Jin smiled and said, "I found it. If I hadn't gone back this time, I might never have discovered Liu Xiu's lies and her viciousness."
Xia Jin told Chen Xin everything Liu Xiu had done. When Chen Xin heard that Liu Xiu had actually taken the money Xia Jin's father had given her, she said angrily, "How could this man be so rude? He will get his comeuppance sooner or later."
Xia Jin said, "Okay, let's not talk about her. You called me here because you wanted me to come here first, and you were so mysterious that you asked me to come here first and not let me go to the store."
"Guess?"
