Chapter 3136: Chapter 3128: Xu Wen’s Request
“Then find so ti to move the things from the old site over here.”
“But I don’t want to be here anymore. I want to change places.”
“Do you have other ideas?”
“Actually, most of the items at the Peace Road site are business-related. If you calculate carefully, their daily delivery volu isn’t much. If everything is moved here, the business on the Xinsheng Garden side might be affected.”
Xu Wen thought for a few seconds and said:
“My idea is to rent a larger store opposite our site, so that we can cover both sides, and it would be more balanced.”
“If you have such an idea, you’ve probably found a suitable house, right?”
“You’re smart, but the rent is a bit high. I’m still thinking it over, seeing if I can negotiate a bit.”
“That’s your business then; I can’t help with that.” Lin Yi spread his hands.
“Don’t say that, you can help.”
“I’ve never asked for prices when buying things, my bargaining experience is zero, so don’t count on .”
“The Landlord is a wealthy woman, looks to be in her forties. If you go, you might at least get a 20% discount,” Xu Wen said with a smile.
“So you want to use my looks. Where’s the address? I’ll give it a try.”
“Try what? I was just joking. How could I ask you to sell your charm,” Xu Wen teased.
“Alright, call when you need ,” Lin Yi said:
“I’ll go back to work first. You stay busy here.”
“Don’t go back yet. All the items at our site have been given to Sun Qiang and Li Xin. They’ve been handling them these days. Continue with them tomorrow, or…”
“Or what?” Lin Yi asked with a smile.
“Or stay here with to scan items. That way you won’t have to go out in the sun and wind,” Xu Wen said cheerfully:
“Which do you choose?”
“Well, if people talk, it could be bad,” Lin Yi said jokingly:
“I’d beco the toy boy kept by a wealthy woman.”
“Hah, if you’re afraid of that, I’d be surprised,” Xu Wen said proudly:
“I’m not afraid anyway. Being afraid is useless; people will talk regardless, so I don’t care.”
“That’s a good way to think. Nowadays, people laugh at poverty and not at immorality. Having money in hand is everything.”
“Totally agree, adults’ mission is to make money.”
“But I’ll still go back to deliver packages. I’m not like you; I can’t sit still.”
Hearing Lin Yi say this, Xu Wen wasn’t disappointed at all.
Because Lin Yi doesn’t dislike her, but is afraid of gossip.
“Alright then, do whatever you want.”
Xu Wen had thought a lot about Lin Yi’s situation.
Though he didn’t show it intentionally, many details inadvertently exposed a lot.
Lin Yi and she weren’t the sa kind of people. His deanor was more like soone in a superior position rather than an ordinary person struggling for life.
Coming here to work might really be just to experience life.
There’s no need to restrict him, and she couldn’t restrict him either.
“I’ll be leaving tomorrow. If you have any issues here, give a call.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you off easily.”
After chatting for a while, they started working.
Around six o’clock in the evening, the delivery truck ca to collect items, marking the end of the day’s work. Those who ca to help also left one after another.
At this ti, only Lin Yi and Xu Wen were left in the store.
“How’s the recruitnt going?”
“Three more are coming tomorrow. We talked on the phone before; they’re all from other delivery companies, so there shouldn’t be any issues,” Xu Wen said, tucking her hair:
“In roughly a week, things should be back on track.”
Lin Yi nodded, “How about the house? Need my help?”
“Of course not.” Xu Wen said proudly, with her head held high:
“The current rent is actually quite reasonable. I just want it a bit cheaper. I can handle this myself.”
“Alright then.”
“Got any other plans for tonight?” Xu Wen asked, grabbing her bag.
“Not at the mont. Do you?”
“Accompany for a grocery run. The fridge at ho is empty, I’m planning to stock up.”
“Don’t make it sound so grand. You’re just asking to be a laborer.”
“As long as you know. Let’s go.”
The two of them got into the car together, “I saw a newly opened supermarket online. I heard many things are on sale and super cheap. Let’s go check it out.”
“I’ve already boarded the pirate ship; you decide where to go,” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“Now that’s obedient.”
After driving for a little over twenty minutes, they arrived at the supermarket.
In such places, it seems like Xu Wen is in her elent.
Even though she hadn’t been there before, she quickly got a feel for the layout of the supermarket.
When picking items, she was very precise, as if she’d planned what to buy in advance, not wasting any ti.
In the end, they bought two carts worth of items, big and small. Lin Yi felt that without him, it would have been very difficult for her to manage alone.
“Will you be able to finish all this food?”
“I’m just a bit lazy, so I buy a lot at once so I don’t have to co often later.”
The two chatted as they walked, getting ready to check out.
Xu Wen casually picked up a bottle of mineral water from the side and handed it to Lin Yi.
“You worked with today, can’t let you feel unpaid. This bottle of water is your reward.”
“Even the capitalists would cry hearing this.”
“Being given water is already good enough; others don’t even get this…”
Before finishing her sentence, Xu Wen stopped speaking.
Lin Yi turned his head to look at her and noticed sothing was off with her expression.
Following her gaze, Lin Yi saw a man and a woman ahead.
The man, in his thirties, had a mature hairstyle, dressed very normally yet gave off an overall shrewd vibe.
The woman next to him was much younger, around twenty-six or twenty-seven, wearing tight jeans, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she had an attractive oval face.
They were chatting happily and waiting in line to check out.
“Let’s go, not buying these things anymore.”
“Hmm? Not buying them?”
Xu Wen’s abrupt statent left Lin Yi a bit puzzled.
“Are you sure you’re not buying them?”
“Not buying them.”
With a cold sentence, Xu Wen turned and left.
Seeing that sothing wasn’t right, Lin Yi didn’t bother with the items in the cart, following Xu Wen’s steps back to the car.
Xu Wen remained silent, with no expression on her face.
Recalling the scene that just occurred, Lin Yi’s keen instincts told him that Xu Wen and that man likely shared a complicated relationship.
Suddenly, Lin Yi thought of sothing and tentatively asked:
“You’re not…?”
“Yes, it’s exactly the type of relationship you’re thinking,” Xu Wen said plainly, frankly explaining the situation to Lin Yi.
