Transmigration: The Narcissistic Cinderella - Chapter 156

As Moon Jiwoo was organizing the flowers around the place, she was called by the owner of the place. Placing the roses in her hand down, she turned back to face the owner.

Wearing a smile on her face, she raised one of her eyebrows and waited for the owner’s words. Judging from the expression on her face, it seemed to be something important, making Moon Jiwoo curious on what it possibly could be.

Nervousness showed on the owner’s face as she started, “As you know, Daerin dear, that I am recently in a need of money, and since this flower shop is the last thing I have, I decided to sell it.

Luckily, I have managed to sell it for an incredible price, and that’s why, the owner for this place have changed to someone else. As for you, I have talked with the new owner, and he said that he had no problem with keeping the employees as long as they are component enough.”

Moon Jiwoo was aware of how the owner was searching for people to sell the flower shop to for a long time. Nonetheless, this was too sudden for her, and the shock was easily shown on her face.

“But owner, didn’t this happen too soon? Did that man even visit our flower shop? When did you even discuss on the matters?” Moon Jiwoo questioned.

“About that, he paid a huge amount for this small shop, and he mentioned on how he had something important at this shop. Seeing how desperate he was, I have decided to sell it.

Don’t worry! The boy seemed quite polite, and he will be treating you properly as well. Your salary will be kept the same. There should be no problems.”

“But what about you, boss? Will you be working at here or taking a break?” Jiwoo asked.

“On that, I want to take a break for a while and then, come back to work after that. That is fine with the new owner. I have been tired recently, and a vacation sounds great.”

That caused worries to form within Moon Jiwoo. She did not believe that she was capable of running the entire place without the help from the owner, and her distress was easily shown on her features.

“You will be fine, Shin Daerin. You are a quick learner, and I can see that you have quite a passion for flowers. That’s why, I know that you will be doing perfect without or with me being present at here.

Moreover, these days it’s you who is handling the entire place. I am just here to look around the place that’s all. That’s why, have more confidence within yourself.”

“Even so, Boss, I am still not capable of looking around the entire place on my own, and without your guidance, it would be impossible. It would be better for you to hire someone better than me if you are going to leave, Boss.”

“Our shop isn’t anything grand, so you will be doing absolutely fine,” the owner voiced out, “Also I have told the new owner that you are lacking in some parts, and he agreed to personally help you with this.

Plus he is a handsome man. I am pretty sure working with him will be making you feel more motivated, and we might even get good news in the future. I am sure it will be better than working with an old lady like me.”

“What are you talking about, boss? Nothing can be better than working with you,” she stated, “Now that everything is decided, I guess I can’t do anything other than working hard. I hope you have fun as well, boss, and so that, all of your trouble gets resolved.”

“Same goes for you, Dear. You have been suffering for too long. That’s why, I want you to move on. I am being honest though. The new owner is not that bad.”

“Boss, stop teasing me!” She exclaimed.

Moon Jiwoo wasn’t exactly able to pinpoint it, but she was starting to have a negative feeling about the entire thing. Anxiety rose within her, making her feel sick inside.

The reason to that wasn’t something she was able to guess, but maybe this was because something bad was about to happen.

Placing down the small colourful flowers on the shelf, she turned back, and her eyes fell on the male and the female who stepped into the shop. Seeing Yura and Youngjae at the place instantly caused a smile to form on her face.

“Do you both need flowers?” she questioned, raising one of her eyebrows.

“Unnie, these are really beautiful!” Yura exclaimed as she had sparkles in her eyes. “But the thing is that I am broke right now. I will buy some when I have enough money, alright?”

“What a joke! You will never have enough money because all of those are spent on nonsensical things. Do all the things you buy even work?”

“Shut up! Whatever I do is none of your business, You scumbag,” she stated, “I am just testing them out for my Future YouTube videos.”

“Haven’t you still given up your childish dream to be an YouTuber? Are you dumb? That will never happen with you,” he vocalised.

As she puffed both of her cheeks, Yura wore a pout on her face, and she protruded her bottom lips forward. Extending her hand towards Jiwoo, she made her way over to the girl and wrapped her hands around the woman.

“Youngae idiot is bullying me again, Unnie. Say something to him! He is so mean!”

“Stop being so dramatic and accept the truth? Did people even subscribe to your channel in the first place? Give up your stupid dream, and do something useful for once. I can see how poor you will be in the future!”

“You jerk! I will get popular! I will be proving it you! Everyone starts out, but they get popular eventually! That will be happening to me as well! I will laugh at you when I get popular, and you will be at the rock bottom then, you loser!”

“Sure everyone starts out small, but what happens when you are the bottom after starting your channel for five years? Just accept the truth. Whatever you do is boring and outdated. It’s not as if you are pretty either. You can’t use your face to make money!”

“Unnie, listen to him! I will get famous, right! Unnie, you watch my videos, right? They are fun aren’t they? You enjoy them, right?” she voiced out.

“Your videos are amazing, Yura, but you should be a little realistic. You can’t lead you entire life doing this, and when you get older, getting a job will be tough. That’s why, you need to study harder at University.”

“Unnie, don’t worry about that! I will be an idol. I don’t need to study properly for that, and I can get rich as well by that way.”

At those words of her, Youngjae laughed and vocalised, “You sure dream big, don’t you? Idol? Aren’t you too old for that? Noona, instead of encouraging her crazy thoughts, you should hit her and bring her back to her senses. All she does is searches for excuses to not study.”

“Alright! Stop fighting both of you, and Yura, no matter what you do, study hard. What brings you two here though?”

“We just wanted to meet you before heading home. I had some work around this place,” Youngjae answered.

“I just heard how the owner for this place was changed,” Yura vocalised, “Also that the new owner is crazy hot as in the type to make you drop dead. Ah! I want to meet him badly. That’s why, I followed Youngjae to at here, but it doesn’t seem at the new owner is at here.”

“Yeah, he will be coming tomorrow, and since he is new at here, just don’t scare him, Yura, regardless of how he appears to be,” Jiwoo stated.

“You are starting to talk like Youngjae right now, Unnie! When did I scare people?” she voiced out, pulling away from that hug.

“Noona, be careful. Since it’s a young man, no one knows what his intention might be. That’s why, stay careful around him. It’s suspicious already how quickly this place was sold.”

“Why should she be careful? It’s a hot guy, Unnie. Don’t miss your chance and seduce him!” Yura enthusiastically said. “I would have done that if it wasn’t for the fact that I am quite busy these days!”

“Only you would be doing something like that, you fool! Noona, stay on guard all the time, alright?”

Moon Jiwoo let out a chuckle and voiced out, “You don’t need to be worried about me. I am capable of taking care of myself. Let’s have some drinks before going home. I will be closing up the shop.”

“Let’s do that then!” Youngjae cheerfully stated while the girl beside him nodded her head.
