Bai Ruoxi shrugged calmly, "That's all I have to say. If you don't want to listen, there's nothing I can do."
"I'm just standing up for Brother Xing. He's such a great guy, but you're secretly cheating on him. If Chief Xing knew about this, what do you think would happen?"
She didn't know that Jiang Mingxin had already gotten over Xing Yi's problem, and she just thought they were having an underground relationship.
Jiang Mingxin couldn't help but chuckle: "No matter what, this is a matter between Xing Haodong and me, you don't need to worry about it."
Bai Ruoxi thought she was being stubborn, sneered, and turned away.
Seeing that Cui Ling's clothing store was doing so well recently, she was extremely jealous and also wanted to do business. However, she mentioned it to Lin Qiu several times, but she refused to agree. She was very upset.
After much deliberation, Bai Ruoxi decided to act first and ask for permission later. Once she persuaded Cui Ling to transfer the clothing store to her, Lin Qiu would have to agree even if he disagreed.
However, Cui Ling's attitude surprised her greatly.
"No, why wouldn't you want to? I told you the price is negotiable, and you haven't had this shop for very long. Business is good now, but what about the future? After all, you have no connections. If someone gets jealous and tries to trip you up in the future, you won't be able to defend yourself."
Bai Ruoxi thought she was speaking kindly, but to Cui Ling, her words sounded condescending and charitable.
"Ms. Bai, I know you're Director Bai's adopted daughter and have a good background, but I'm a law-abiding citizen. The clothes I sell are all sourced from legal channels. Since this is a legitimate business, why should I be afraid?"
"Besides, I just told you, this store is not mine. I am just running it on her behalf and have no say in the matter."
Bai Ruoxi thought this was an excuse, "Then tell me her contact information and I'll talk to her in person!"
Cui Ling shook her head helplessly: "Without her permission, I can't tell you her contact information."
"How can you be so stubborn!" Bai Ruoxi glanced at Shuanzi, who was sitting next to her playing with a scrap of cloth, and smiled gently, "This is your son, right? If you agree to transfer the shop to me, I can immediately arrange for him to go to the county kindergarten."
Cui Ling scoffed, "No need. Shuanzi's current kindergarten is pretty good. I'm afraid he won't be able to adapt to a new environment."
Bai Ruoxi didn't expect that she wouldn't even care about this. "Then I'll arrange another job for you. How about working in the Public Security Bureau cafeteria? The salary is at least 28 yuan a month, and they even give out food and oil during festivals."
Hearing this, Cui Ling's smile grew even wider. "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm very satisfied with my current life and don't want to change it."
The clothing store's turnover last month was close to two thousand. Excluding the cost of opening the store, the various materials needed to make clothes, and labor costs, the net income was more than fifteen hundred.
Jiang Mingxin promised to give her a 45% share. Who would want to work so hard in the cafeteria?
What's more, she is now very free and can take care of Shuanzi conveniently, which is incomparable to any other job.
Bai Ruoxi was so frustrated that she couldn't speak.
Isn't it just a shabby clothing store?
She can drive it herself!
Bai Ruoxi stamped her feet and left angrily.
As soon as she walked out the door, Cui Ling immediately picked up the store's landline and called Grandpa Fang's bookstore.
Please ask Grandpa Fang to find a chance to tell her about this.
At this time, Jiang Mingxin was bargaining with people in the vegetable market. He bought a fat goose and prepared to go home to stew the goose in an iron pot.
She had been craving this for a long time. The original owner had never eaten it before, so she really wanted to make it herself and try it.
But it was quite troublesome to deal with the goose. As the saying goes, it is better to do one thing than to bother two people. She asked the aunt who sold the goose to slaughter the goose and clean the internal organs before taking it home.
"Xing Haodong, can you stew a goose in an iron pot?" Jiang Mingxin walked into the house excitedly and shouted.
Xing Haodong immediately put down his cell phone and turned to look over.
"This is a Northeastern dish. I'm not very good at making it, but I've seen others make it."
"Just watch someone do it. Tell me the general steps and I'll try to improve on my own."
Jiang Mingxin likes to eat, but she is not too particular about the details. As long as the taste is similar in the end, it is enough.
But Xing Haodong felt that if he wanted to make the dish delicious, every step had to be correct, so he called Lin You and asked for the instructions clearly.
"How could Sister You do this? Didn't she grow up in the compound like you?"
Jiang Mingxin picked up the knife and chopped the goose into small pieces, and unknowingly let the cat out of the bag.
"Do you know my sister?"
Xing Haodong was just wondering why she didn't ask who was on the other end of the phone. He never thought that she had already met Lin You.
Jiang Mingxin was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Oh, it was the second day after you were injured and hospitalized. I went to see you with a thermos bucket, and I happened to run into your sister at the door, so we chatted for a while."
"How come I don't know about this? Neither you nor she told me." Xing Haodong narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "What did you two talk about at the time?"
With a bang, Jiang Mingxin quickly chopped off the goose's head and threw it into the trash can.
"What else can I say? We're just talking about your injury. I almost mistook your sister for... well, I won't say anymore."
Xing Haodong's brows instantly lit up with a smile, "You almost mistook my sister for something? Could it be that you mistook her for a love rival?"
With two clangs, Jiang Mingxin chopped the goose's neck into three pieces.
"Oh, don't ask me anymore. Now you know why I didn't tell you?"
Xing Haodong laughed muffledly, reached out and hugged her from behind, and rubbed his lips against her earlobe. "That's my sister. Can't you see that she looks like me? But concern makes you confused. I can understand how you felt at that time. Besides, I like you being jealous of me."
