Chapter Index

    Actually, the black Audi didn’t drive very far after leaving the female dormitory. It stopped at the front plaza of the teaching building since both of them had afternoon classes and going out for a drive now wasn’t very practical.

    But seeing there was still some time before class, Jiang Qin took Feng Nanshu to Xitian Milk Tea Shop.

    “Do you want to go drink milk tea?” Feng Nanshu asked.

    Jiang Qin shook his head after hearing this, “We’re not here to drink milk tea. You’re the boss lady of Xitian. Although you’re a bit afraid of people, you can’t always avoid showing your face.”

    “I don’t even have a certificate,” Feng Nanshu hadn’t forgotten about the boss lady certificate.

    Jiang Qin couldn’t help but glance at her, “You’re always not coming. Fang Xiaoxuan has probably already forgotten that you’re the boss lady. And you still want the certificate?”

    “Then I’ll come often from now on.”

    While talking, the two arrived at the entrance of Xitian Milk Tea Shop.

    The campus belle contest had passed and the marketing hype had started to wane. But the commercial atmosphere of the front plaza had indeed been stirred up and quite a few customers were retained, to the point that the foot traffic was worlds apart from before.

    And Fang Xiaoxuan’s excellent performance in the marketing phase also proved her business abilities. So Jiang Qin planned to promote her to manager and raise her salary.

    But it was best to do this in the name of the little rich girl, after all she was nominally the boss of the milk tea shop.

    After entering, Jiang Qin saw three people.

    One was Fang Xiaoxuan and the other two were her recruited sidekicks, Hu Xin and Chen Yong.

    Hu Xin was originally a restaurant waitress on South Street while Chen Yong was a university student. Both of them were handpicked by Fang Xiaoxuan.

    Xitian’s business was getting better and better and the fiery marketing phase had already passed. They couldn’t just squeeze Fang Xiaoxuan alone.

    Moreover, if Xitian really wanted to open branches at other schools, Jiang Qin needed to have a few capable milk tea shop managers on hand to go along.

    As the person who had grown with Xitian from the very beginning, Fang Xiaoxuan was definitely the best choice.

    She worked hard, had a sincere work attitude, and did things neatly and efficiently. Jiang Qin saw all these strengths, so he intentionally wanted her to learn how to manage a milk tea shop to prepare for the future branch model.

    She wasn’t a student at Linchuan University and had more free time. Being sent to University of Science and Technology wouldn’t delay her studies and she was a very suitable candidate.

    However, although Fang Xiaoxuan was good at making milk tea, she had no experience being a manager. So Jiang Qin wanted to train her more before the branch plan started.

    And how to recruit suitable staff was what she most needed to learn in a short period of time.

    “Boss, Boss Lady, good afternoon.”

    Fang Xiaoxuan spoke sweetly like her mouth was coated with honey upon seeing Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu enter.

    “How’s business recently?” Jiang Qin casually glanced around the shop.

    Fang Xiaoxuan nodded, “Not bad. Although it can’t compare to the craziness during the campus belle contest period, it’s not far off either.”

    “These two part-time workers, are they doing well?”

    “Hu Xin is okay and learns quickly. Chen Yong didn’t have much experience before so he’s still learning. But making milk tea isn’t a difficult job. He should be able to adapt very soon.”

    Jiang Qin nodded. He wasn’t too picky about whether they had professional experience. “By the way Xiaoxuan, we came today to announce something.”

    “What is it boss?”

    “Your boss lady thinks you’ve worked hard and been responsible recently, so she wants to make you Xitian’s manager with a 20% salary increase.”

    Feng Nanshu learned quickly. Jiang Qin only had to teach her once. “Xiaoxuan, you have to keep working hard in the future.”

    “Thank you boss, thank you boss lady, I will definitely continue working hard!” Visible joy instantly appeared on Fang Xiaoxuan’s face.

    Her salary had already been raised once and now it was being raised again along with a promotion. Her excitement went without saying.

    While she was still riding this wave of excitement, Jiang Qin also simply told her about the next step of the plan.

    “Xitian is about to open a branch at University of Science and Technology. We need a qualified manager to lead the charge. My idea was to recruit a new one but your boss lady really likes you and suggested letting you go gain some experience.”

    Feng Nanshu glanced at him, her lashes fluttering slightly, “Jiang Qin is right.”

    “I’m willing to go,” Fang Xiaoxuan agreed without any hesitation.

    “You’re not going to consider it more?”

    “I don’t need to consider it. Wherever you send me, I’ll go.”

    Fang Xiaoxuan hadn’t had much schooling and had always been running around doing odd jobs. The good ones were hard to find and the bad ones paid little. Stability was currently the most important thing to her.

    Xitian’s business used to be so bad the old boss was always sighing about closing up shop.

    Fang Xiaoxuan had already prepared to be laid off. Who would have thought that after changing bosses it was resurrected and would soon open a branch. Who would get cold feet at a time like this?

    She really couldn’t understand what the boss and boss lady wanted to do but she had a brain.

    In just one short month, making Xitian’s business so hot wasn’t something an average person could do.

    Fang Xiaoxuan really hoped to get a job with promotion opportunities. But with her low education, although she was hardworking and conscientious, this hard work wasn’t worth much in the eyes of others.

    But now it was great. She could go manage a branch and maybe manage even more branches in the future. Faced with this kind of opportunity, if you have the conditions then you have to go for it. Even if you don’t have the conditions, you have to create the conditions and go for it.

    Bottom-level workers may not have much book learning but they definitely understand the two words “prospects” very clearly.

    Jiang Qin nodded, “Okay, since you’re willing, the candidate for the transfer position will be you.”

    “Boss, about when will I go to the branch?” Fang Xiaoxuan couldn’t help asking.

    Jiang Qin thought carefully for a moment, “Next month. But I can’t say the exact time yet because the shop location hasn’t been selected. You just do your job here steadily for now and strive to train Hu Xin and Chen Yong in the shortest time possible.”

    Fang Xiaoxuan nodded, “Okay boss.”

    “Work hard,” Feng Nanshu spoke softly.

    “Thank you boss lady, you’re so nice.”

    “You too.” The little rich girl’s eyes were shining.

    At this moment, Fang Xiaoxuan felt that what the boss said wasn’t just polite words. Her aloof boss lady might really like her a lot.

    After leaving Xitian, Jiang Qin took Feng Nanshu to the teaching building.

    The afternoon public class was for Class 3 and 4 together. This was also the first time Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu had class together. The two found the public classroom for this class according to the schedule. As soon as they entered, the originally noisy chatter instantly reduced by more than half.

    Honestly, the boys of the School of Finance still had feelings of admiration, jealousy and hatred towards Jiang Qin.

    The girl who dazzled countless people at the start of school followed Jiang Qin around every day as if he was the only man in the world. Others couldn’t even add her QQ. It was infuriating enough to kill someone.

    But what could they do?

    Everyone knew Feng Nanshu had two sides. One side was as cold and clear as moonlight, unapproachable, not smiling at strangers, belonging to everyone.

    But the other lively, cute and clingy side only belonged to Jiang Qin. No one else could even dream of seeing it.

    “Went on a date again?” Gao Wenhui’s face was full of wanting to gossip.

    Jiang Qin spat at him, “Why don’t you find someone to date? I find you have quite the love-brain.”

    “Dating yourself is boring. Watching others date is more fun.”

    “Yeah, well said. Dating yourself is the most boring. Might as well watch a TV drama. At least you can directly skip to the last episode to see if it’s a good or bad ending and decide whether to follow it. Avoid feeling frustrated over a bad ending and making yourself sad in the end.”

    Feng Nanshu sat obediently beside them, reaching out to flip open the first page of the textbook and glancing at it. She didn’t show much interest in this topic.

    Jiang Qin was also already sitting straight, back straight preparing for class.

    Not understanding advanced math was one thing. But if he failed other classes too, re-taking them wouldn’t be so simple. If he got dismissed, Madam Yuan would definitely break his legs.

    But just then, Jiang Qin’s gaze suddenly caught sight of someone.

    Ren Ziqiang. He was sitting with Pan Xiu, the two of them chatting and laughing, the atmosphere very lively.

    Jiang Qin couldn’t help feeling a bit surprised, thinking could it be that bootlickers really have their day in the sun?

    “Old Zhou, Old Zhou, why are Ren Ziqiang and Pan Xiu sitting together?”

    Zhou Chao ran over, “You don’t know? Ren Ziqiang went to confess to Pan Xiu at noon today!”

    “Lovers finally united?” Jiang Qin was a bit shocked.

    Who would have thought Zhou Chao shook his head, “Pan Xiu said she wanted to be Ren Ziqiang’s younger sister.”

    “Damn, so lovers finally became siblings. Isn’t that done for?” Jiang Qin’s eyes went wide.

    “It’s indeed done for. But Ren Ziqiang is quite happy. He said lovers all start as sworn siblings. It’s still more of a chance than simply being classmates.”

    “…”

    Jiang Qin clicked his tongue, his gaze involuntarily revealing an indistinct but very profound aversion.

    Damn, it’s precisely because there are examples like this right in front of you that love is the most not worthwhile thing in the world!
