During this period of time, Lu Bei had been moving goods, and his strength had increased by quite a bit. He seemed to be able to move two large boxes with ease. When he heard Xiang Xiaoyuan’s question, he looked at her and said, “The salary should not be less than 150 yuan per day.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan: “…”

I asked you why you came over, and you’re talking to me about money?

Aren’t you the male protagonist of the novel? Aren’t you the heir of a rich family?! Why are you so stingy?!

At this moment, Lu Bei added, “The company doesn’t need me to move goods every day.”

This answered Xiang Xiaoyuan’s question.

But in reality, he was the one who called the company to ask for a leave today. In any case, the company had a lot of porters, so he was not needed, but Xiang Xiaoyuan…

“Oh.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan did not suspect him and patted his shoulder generously. “Okay, you have great strength. You are worth two men. I’ll give you two hundred yuan a day!”

Lu Bei: “…”

Unknowingly, the relationship between the two of them had developed in a strange direction.

It was not accurate to say that they were friends. After all, the two of them were on the same household registry, which was a stepmother and stepson’s relationship.

Perhaps the two of them might develop a bond later.

The convenience store’s business was booming today. Xiang Xiaoyuan felt what pain and joy meant. Listening to the sound of the cash register, she began to understand why Lu Wanggui had managed to grow his business to this extent and was still happily making money. The main reason was that the feeling of receiving money was so amazing!

Xiang Xiaoyuan guessed that Qin Dong’s Weibo post might be related to Lin Siqing. After all, the only person who could cause such a huge impact was Lin Siqing. Most importantly, when she looked up news about Qin Dong today, she found that his schedule from yesterday overlapped with Lin Siqing’s.

Xiang Xiaoyuan thought about it and did not ask if Lin Siqing and Qin Dong were related. First of all, she had only met Lin Siqing once and was not very close to her. It was not appropriate to talk about private matters such as the relationship between her and another man.

Since that was the case, she would just quietly earn the money and thank Qin Dong and Lin Siqing in her heart.

After a busy day, Lu Bei and Xu Xiyao still looked energetic, but Xiang Xiaoyuan was so tired that she could not stand up straight. At this moment, she could not help but sigh. It was so good to be young!

Although she was only a dozen years older than Lu Bei and the Xu Xiyao, her physical strength was too weak. She leaned on the high chair and ordered takeout. After ordering, she flipped through the bill and calculated the turnover for the day. When she saw the final sum, she was beaming with joy.

Oh my god, the turnover for the day was almost the same as the total of the previous month.

If business could be this good every day, she would be able to open a branch in less than two months.

Her greedy look made Lu Bei speechless. He complained to Xu Xiyao in a low voice, “When people see her like this, they will think that my family is so poor.”

After saying that, Lu Bei thought that his father was a little stingy and did not give Xiang Xiaoyuan enough money.

Xu Xiyao’s expression did not change. “Good for her.”

No matter when or where, she was full of vitality and never discouraged. She was shining like a sun.

Even if her goal was to earn money, it did not make her look trashy. On the contrary, she infected the people around her and made them feel hopeful about life.

Xiang Xiaoyuan was thinking about opening a branch. She did not pay attention to the two young men who were whispering behind her. However, she could not rush to open a branch. She still needed to wait for some time and see how things would go.

Business was so good at the moment because of the celebrities. When this died down, they would have to rely solely on their own brand. Many people would think that all convenience stores were the same. What kind of branding would they have?

However, if that was the case, there would not be a variety of convenience stores in the city. Sometimes, an outstanding item in a convenience store was enough to support the whole convenience store.

The night was getting darker. Lu Wanggui could not turn down all his work and leave work on time today.

It was a privilege to be able to leave work on time based on Lu Wanggui’s busy schedule. With his status, although he didn’t have to deal with many business events, he was still invited to many dinner parties every day. Besides, he also had to make video reports every day for his projects abroad.

The weather forecast said that there would be a shower tonight.

Lu Wanggui was focused on his work and didn’t hear the pitter-patter of rain outside. Then, there was a knock on the door and Gao Yuan came in with a pile of documents..
