Chapter 108 The One Who Deserves Repair
Ai Xiaoxia went to see Jiang Xiuying again, and Jiang Xiuying just said a few words and went off to get busy.
However, they both agreed not to talk much about work in the family compound. They didn't deliberately hide it, but there was no need to publicize it either. They just let things take their course.
Customers started arriving at 10:30, and by 11:00, the store was already half full.
Ai Xiaoxia went out to fill in the erased words on the drawing board at the door. There were many people coming and going yesterday, so some of the words were not clear.
She was writing attentively at the door with colored chalk. You know, this is the only way now, and she can also show her graphic design skills, so she really put a lot of effort into drawing on this small blackboard.
"Oh, I didn't expect that you work here, Ai Xiaoxia?" Meng Qian took three days off for New Year's Day to go home. In the morning, she heard from her friends that a very trendy store had opened here, so she asked a few friends to come together. Unexpectedly, she saw Ai Xiaoxia at the door, which made her feel superior again.
Ai Xiaoxia turned around after hearing the familiar voice and looked at Meng Qian: "Welcome, please come in." She was the boss now, and the customers who came were there to give money, so of course she welcomed them.
Meng Qian was originally depressed because she couldn't find a chance to make fun of Ai Xiaoxia and make her feel that she was not worthy of Lu Jingshen. Now isn't this the opportunity?
She stood opposite Ai Xiaoxia and said, "I want you to serve me today."
Ai Xiaoxia said, "I'm not a waiter. Everyone in our store has their own responsibilities." Then she said to the waiter at the door, "Xiao Yu, come and entertain these distinguished guests."
Xiao Yu heard the boss calling him, and hurried out. He politely said to Meng Qian and the others, "Miss and Gentleman, please come in."
Meng Qian didn't move: "I don't need anyone else, I'll let Ai Xiaoxia serve me."
The three girls who came with Meng Qian also stood beside Meng Qian, with arrogant looks in their eyes.
There was another boy, Meng Qian's suitor named Chen Zhu. He was also trying to win the favor of the person he liked. He stepped forward and said to Ai Xiaoxia, "Do you know who I am? My brother knows your boss. If you don't appreciate it, I'll have my brother tell your boss, and you'll be out of work. Why don't you just do what my friend said and take us in personally?"
At this time, Xiao Yu reacted. The boss had just called him out to greet them personally. He thought they were the boss's acquaintances, but now he realized that something was wrong. These people were looking for trouble with the boss.
He quickly stood beside Ai Xiaoxia and said to Chen Zhu, "This is our boss. You don't even know our boss, and you're making trouble here?"
Meng Qian was stunned when she heard the waiter's words. It took her a long time to react. She pulled Chen Zhu's sleeve and asked, "Didn't you say that this boss is your brother's friend?"
Chen Zhu was also confused: "The boss is actually my brother's friend, and I have met my brother's friend before. He is a man."
Meng Qian suddenly understood after hearing this. She looked at Ai Xiaoxia and laughed, "Ai Xiaoxia, Ai Xiaoxia, you're really good at pretending. You must have colluded with your waiter to give you face, right?"
Ai Xiaoxia couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Are you seriously ill? Did I know you were coming today? I had to set up such a big scheme just to trick you? Are you that important? You're really worthless in my eyes."
Meng Qian didn't miss this opportunity. She continued to talk about Ai Xiaoxia's lies, "They said the boss is a man, but you are a man? I wonder what Engineer Lu would think if he knew you were so good at making up stories."
At this time, Sun Qiang came over and said to Meng Qian, "We are not the same boss. I am a man, but my partner is a woman. Is that not okay?"
He had just returned from the brewery and happened to hear what they had just said. In Sun Qiang's heart, Ai Xiaoxia was his sister-in-law, so how could she be bullied?
Chen Zhu panicked when he saw Sun Qiang. He had seen his brother with Sun Qiang and knew that this was Sun Qiang, but his brother was the one who flattered Sun Qiang. His brother ran a grain and oil store and wanted to establish a relationship with Sun Qiang, but Sun Qiang was not very interested in his brother. He just happened to meet him and then heard what his brother said, so Sun Qiang didn't recognize him. Now he panicked.
Meng Qian was also confused at this time. She quickly asked Chen Zhu: "Didn't you say you saw the boss? Was it him?"
Chen Zhu nodded: "This is the boss."
Meng Qian was still unwilling to give in, and her heart was also anxious and lost its composure. She asked Sun Qiang directly: "Can you guarantee that there is no improper relationship? She is from the countryside, why are you working with her?"
Ai Xiaoxia put her hands behind her back, afraid that she would not be able to resist hitting Meng Qian: "Let's talk somewhere else."
This is the main entrance of the barbecue restaurant. It is a busy time and cannot be opened on the second day. The boss was fighting with someone in front of the store. She didn't know what happened when the news got out. She thought this store was shady, so she planned to talk somewhere else.
Meng Qian didn't want to change the location. She hoped that the matter would become a big deal in a crowded place so that Lu Jingshen would know about it.
So he tilted his neck and said to Ai Xiaoxia, "What shame do you have? Why are you scared?"
Sun Qiang said to Ai Xiaoxia, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I won't let you suffer any loss. I don't hit women, but all the waiters in our house are women."
Meng Qian got anxious when she heard this and pointed at the two of them: "Promise..."
Before she could finish, Chen Zhu grabbed Meng Qian's arm, covered her mouth, and dragged her back. As he did so, he said to Sun Qiang, "Brother Qiang, I'm really sorry. We were blind. I apologize on Meng Qian's behalf. We were wrong. I'll take her away now and I promise not to come again."
Meng Qian kicked around in anger, but her mouth was covered and she couldn't speak.
At this time, there were also onlookers. Ai Xiaoxia looked at the scene and said to the onlookers with a very steady smile: "It's okay, they are just a young couple arguing, and we are trying to mediate. It's not a matter of the store. Everyone, please come in."
Meng Qian became even more furious after hearing what Ai Xiaoxia said, and she jumped over to hit Ai Xiaoxia.
But Chen Zhu is not stupid. He knows that Sun Qiang is not an ordinary person. In Lingyuan City, offending him is no joke.
Besides, his brother still has things to ask of others. If he offends Sun Qiang, his parents will be very angry when he gets home. Their family depends on his brother to make money.
Although Meng Qian's family is well-off and he likes her very much, he dare not go against Sun Qiang for her. Besides, this is also to help Meng Qian. Meng Qian's family is just a small business owner and they can't afford to offend Sun Qiang.
Sun Qiang admired Ai Xiaoxia's resilience. She could now talk to people around her with a smile. She was indeed a person who knew what was going on. He said to Ai Xiaoxia, "Sister-in-law, I won't let this man go."
Ai Xiaoxia whispered to Sun Qiang, "No need for you. Just take care of the store first. I'll be back soon."
She didn't want to swallow this breath. Why should such a small grudge be left overnight? After saying this, she ran in the direction of Chen Zhu and Meng Qian.
Sun Qiang was worried, so he went into the store and said a few words to Jiang Xiuying, then hurried out and went to the direction where Ai Xiaoxia disappeared.
