Shen Qingqing turned to Wu Fangyi with a tense face, "You're still laughing at me? Weren't you the same just now?"
Wu Fangyi couldn't stop laughing, and she didn't forget to explain to Shen Qingqing, "I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at the way we were just now, it was really too funny."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingqing recalled how stiff the two of them had been just moments before, as if they had been frozen in place, which was simply unbearable to look at, and she immediately burst out laughing.
The two laughed and joked for a long time at the school gate. Just as Shen Qingqing was about to take out her phone to ask the administrator of Youqiantu to come and pick her up, she suddenly remembered something and called out to Wu Fangyi: "Sister Fangyi, haven't you been to our studio yet?"
"Are you free now? How about I take you there to have a look?"
Shen Qingqing blinked, looking at Wu Fangyi with hopeful eyes.
Wu Fangyi took out her new phone, opened the notes app to check her schedule for the day, and after confirming that she would make it, nodded: "Okay! Let's go! I haven't been there even once since our studio was established!"
"They've brought quite a few clients to our studio, so we really should go check it out. Otherwise, if clients ask us how to get to our studio, I won't know how to explain it to them!"
Shen Qingqing laughed heartily, "Okay, then we'll wait a bit. Our studio's administration will come to pick us up by car. I need to introduce them to them. Our studio also has a living advertisement and a second boss!"
Shen Qingqing's words startled Wu Fangyi. "Second Boss?"
She began to doubt whether she had heard about this when she made the promise to Shen Qingqing.
Shen Qingqing nodded naturally: "Yes."
Seeing Wu Fangyi's strange expression, Shen Qingqing realized that she hadn't made things clear when she invited Wu Fangyi, so she explained again: "Although I provided all the funds for this studio, you are also considered to have contributed your skills as equity, because I used your name to find clients for the studio. So now I am the big boss of the studio, and you are the second boss."
"Tomorrow is the day the studio pays last month's salary. Our studio pays salaries on the 15th of every month. If it falls on a weekend or holiday, it will be paid on a weekday in advance."
Upon hearing this, Wu Fangyi pointed to herself in surprise: "I get a salary too?"
Shen Qing nodded naturally: "Of course you have it!"
Wu Fangyi looked at Shen Qingqing with a complicated expression, suddenly unsure of what to say.
It's fair to say that Shen Qingqing's actions were essentially giving her money for free. She didn't think she had put in much effort for the studio; she simply handed out the studio's business cards and exchanged a few words when other parents asked her if she still had tutoring slots available.
Shen Qingqing did everything else herself.
What qualifications does she have to be called the second boss of this studio, and even receive a salary for nothing every month?
Wu Fangyi took a deep breath and grasped Shen Qingqing's shoulders: "Qingqing, I can't accept this salary. I didn't do anything, and the money I earned from tutoring was all my own, and it wasn't even included in the studio's business income. How can I take the money for nothing?"
Shen Qingqing said, "No, Sister Fangyi, you've misunderstood. What you've done is your reputation among the parents in this community, and even among their friends. That's the best thing you've done for the studio."
"Let me think about how to explain this to you. You are the studio's reputation protector. Many clients were introduced by you. They trust you, so they are willing to come to our studio to find other tutors. Without you, how could they trust a fledgling educational studio where even the owner is still a minor?"
Shen Qingqing spoke very sincerely, and what she said truly reflected what Wu Fangyi had done for the studio.
Now that the studio is on track, Chen Jiaxin and the others have also received their middle school entrance exam results. All three of them scored above the admission score for Jinzhong Middle School, and by a significant margin.
Clients who inquired through Wu Fangyi naturally developed an initial sense of trust upon hearing about the high scores achieved by the tutors at their studio. Then, they waited for the tutors to gradually improve the clients' children's grades, gaining even more trust from the parents.
Following Chen Kangqi, two more parents came looking for tutors to help with the entrance exams for the Experimental Middle School. Shen Qingqing assigned the remaining two classmates to them.
It's still summer vacation, so the results of student tutoring can't be shown very clearly yet. Even if the teachers create their own practice tests and the results are good, parents may still have doubts that the tests from the studio are easier.
Therefore, the entrance examination for the Experimental Middle School became the most important test for evaluating the teaching abilities of the tutors at Youqian Education Studio.
In less than two weeks, it will be time for the three students in the studio who are preparing for the entrance exam for the experimental middle school to prove themselves and the abilities of the studio's teachers.
After hearing what Shen Qingqing said, Wu Fangyi felt as if her heart was being soaked in warm water and honey, feeling both warm and sweet.
She never imagined that her friendship with Shen Qingqing would be this profound.
She knew all too well that Shen Qingqing's family was wealthy, so when befriending Shen Qingqing, she always hoped to be the one who gave more, afraid that others would think that she was befriending Shen Qingqing because of her family's money.
