Chapter 248: Cooking Raw Rice into White Rice
"Shishi, Lei Zi, when we get back to the store, don't tell anyone about Fang Zhiwei."
Wen Shishi was stunned by Qin Qing's words, and she was a little slow to react.
"Sister Qing, what do you mean by not saying this?"
"I don't want my mother to worry, so I'll just say Fang Zhiwei has recovered from his injuries and is off on a mission."
The light in Qin Qing's eyes was extremely dim, and she didn't want Tang Min to worry about her.
After she said this, Wen Shishi and Lei Zi understood and nodded silently. Without saying anything more, Qin Qing patted her face and tried to force a smile, sweeping away her previous depression.
"Alright! Let's go back to the mountain city! We can't be depressed anymore! Shishi, let's work hard together and make a lot of money!"
Looking at Qin Qing trying so hard to draw blood, Wen Shishi felt a pang of bitterness in her heart for some reason.
She would rather see Qin Qing sad than force herself to be optimistic. If she keeps suppressing the pain in her heart like this for a long time, can she really bear it?
Wen Shishi and Lei Zi looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes. Now that they were back in the mountain city, they were the only ones who knew about it, but they couldn't say anything about it.
Wen Shishi's driver had been waiting at the airport very early. After picking up the three people, Wen Shishi was not in a hurry to go home. For her, returning to the Wen family was not as good as being with Qin Qing, which made her feel more at home.
The three of them returned to the city. Seeing that the Spring Festival was approaching, the entire mountain city began to decorate with lights and colorful lanterns. Red lanterns could be seen hanging high on the streets, and firecrackers could be heard from time to time. The festive atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger.
From a long time ago, Wen Shishi spent the Spring Festival alone.
During the Spring Festival, her father would let that woman take that illegitimate child back to the Wen family. Although her grandparents also took care of her, she was not a son after all and could not carry on the family line. Thinking of that illegitimate child, her grandparents would also indulge that woman into the family.
She doesn't want to see ***, so she might as well live alone.
"Sister Qing, can I spend New Year's Eve with you this year?"
When they were almost at Urban Beauty, Wen Shishi asked in a low voice.
Qin Qing turned her head to look at her with a strange look in her eyes. Wen Shishi quickly waved her hand.
"Hey, I'm just kidding, just saying it casually, you don't have to take it seriously."
Qin Qing looked at Wen Shishi's always passionate eyes, and she felt a little panicked. She suddenly understood that this wealthy family might not be so good.
She smiled slightly and pulled Wen Shishi's hand, "We have to go back to Dagang Village for the Spring Festival. If you don't mind, you can go back with us."
When Qin Qing thought of the Spring Festival, she still thought that she could spend this year's New Year's Eve with Fang Zhiwei, but now... everything is gone.
Qin Qing's eyes felt sore, and she blinked again, but forced herself to hold back the tears. She was about to go back to the store, and she couldn't let her see any clues.
"No! I don't mind! I think your house is nice and popular!"
Wen Shishi was speaking the truth. Although Tang Zhimei and her daughter were annoying to look at, they were not as treacherous and calculating as that woman. What's more, there were Aunt Tang and Lei Zi. With so many people in their family, it must be very lively.
"Sister Wen, if you want to celebrate the New Year in the village, I can take you to the manure pit to set off firecrackers. They'll go up really high, and it'll be fun!"
Lei Zi rarely showed his childish innocence, but his words made Wen Shishi's face turn black on the spot.
Blowing up a manure pit! What kind of entertainment is this? She absolutely refuses to go!
"I'd rather just set off some firecrackers. I'd better take others out for fun activities like this!"
Wen Shishi immediately refused, and Qin Qing smiled and said, "We can still watch the Spring Festival Gala together. Isn't Boss Qian going to the Spring Festival Gala? Maybe we can see him on TV."
"That's great, that's great! Seeing him is the best!"
Wen Shishi smiled happily, her eyebrows and eyes curved.
She didn't tell Qin Qing about her and Qian Dafa's plan, because she wanted to wait until the Spring Festival Gala was broadcast live to give Qin Qing a surprise.
"Miss, we're here."
The driver drove the car to the door of Urban Beauty. Wen Shishi got out happily and turned to the driver.
"Lao Wang, you should go back. I've been staying here lately and I'm not going back."
"Miss, if the old man asks you..."
The driver wanted to ask more, but Wen Shishi had no intention of answering and just dragged her luggage towards the store.
As the three of them walked to the door of the store, they heard a shrill sound coming from inside.
"This is the price of this dress. If you think it's too expensive, go buy it at the department store. I won't serve you anymore!"
"What's with your attitude? If it weren't for your fame, I wouldn't have come."
"It's good to know that we're famous. We really don't need your business. If you can't pay, leave!"
“You, you, you!”
Qin Qing was walking in front. When she heard the familiar voice, she knew who it was even with her eyes closed.
Tang Zhimei!
Before she left, she had warned Tang Zhimei not to interfere with the store's business. Now that she had returned and heard her presence, Qin Qing couldn't hold back her temper. She walked into the store with a sullen face.
"What do you mean by 'you'? Just say you're poor. Our clothes..."
Tang Zhimei was sitting at the gate eating melon seeds. In front of her stood a woman in a yellow tweed coat. She was so angry at Tang Zhimei's words that she was shaking.
I saw a figure passing by the woman and walking in front of Tang Zhimei. He slapped her hard without any hesitation.
Bang!!
The slap was delivered without mercy and with such force that five deep red marks immediately appeared on Tang Zhimei's face.
"Qin Qing!! Are you crazy? Why did you hit me?!"
There were already quite a few customers in the store, and because of Tang Zhimei's arrogant attitude, many people were watching from the sidelines. Unexpectedly, Qin Qing suddenly rushed out and slapped Tang Zhimei directly.
"Just based on your attitude towards customers!"
Qin Qing no longer glanced at Tang Zhimei. She looked at the sweater in the woman's hand, then looked at Xiaoyue, who was standing aside, not daring to say a word, and said, "Xiaoyue, go get the bag."
Xiaoyue nodded and hurried to get the shopping bags. Qin Qing walked forward and bowed to the woman.
"I'm sorry, sister. We failed to supervise properly and hired such a salesperson. I'll give you this sweater as our apology. As for this employee, we will fire her and will never let her work again!"
"Fire? Qin Qing, what right do you have to fire you! This store is indeed yours, but it also belongs to Bai Fan. If he doesn't agree, you have no right to serve me!"
Looking at Tang Zhimei's arrogant attitude and the mention of white rice, Qin Qing guessed something, but seeing so many guests around staring at her, she waved her hand.
"Leizi, kick her out!"
Lei Zi walked forward and said to Tang Zhimei coldly, "Let's go!"
"I'm not leaving! I'm putting my words here. As long as White Rice doesn't agree, I'm not leaving!"
Tang Zhimei stared at Qin Qing. She never expected that she would come back so early.
She had originally estimated that her trip to Kyoto would take at least a month or two. It would have been better if she could have waited a little longer so she could have made a living, but she was back so soon! She wasn't afraid, as the matter was almost settled. It was easier to invite a deity than to send it away. She wanted...
Tang Zhimei was feeling proud of herself, but she didn't expect that Lei Zi, seeing that she was not diligent, would pick her up with one hand, carry her on his shoulder, and carry her out like a sack.
"Qin Qing, you are not allowed to bother me! Bai Fanmi and I have already..."
