Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed open the hidden door, he was frightened half to death by Zhou Manni, who was standing behind the door without saying a word, if he hadn't covered his mouth in time, he almost screamed.

"Man...... Mannie?! How are you standing here? I'm scared to death......" Shi Nuannuan was so frightened by her that she felt her head sober a lot.

Zhou Manni's face was not very good-looking, and she didn't answer, but just looked at her like that, which was different from her usual enthusiastic and cheerful appearance.

Shi Nuannuan also sensed that something was wrong, swallowed her saliva and asked, "Mannie, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhou Manni stared at her for a long time before she spoke: "Do you like Chen Kaiyu?" ”

Shi Nuannuan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously shook her head: "I don't like it." ”

"Really?" She asked.

Shi Nuannuan came back to her senses, remembering the scene in the locker room two days ago, she hurriedly took the initiative to affirm: "I really don't have that kind of idea about him, if you want to chase it, then you have to work hard!" ”

Zhou Manni took a step forward and asked, "Since you don't like it, why did you eat together last time?" And I saw it just now, he brought you here! Why are you two together?! ”

Shi Nuannuan secretly screamed in her heart that it was not good-she was so careful, she still saw it, and the misunderstanding of eating lunch last time had not been resolved, and this time it was ......

"The last time he had dinner, he had to come over to eat together, and there was Liequan together, this time it was because I was a little motion sick, he happened to pass by and saw it, he was afraid that I would faint and bring me over, we really have nothing else, you have to believe me!" Shi Nuannuan racked her brains to explain.

Zhou Manni snorted coldly, it seemed that she still didn't believe what she said, and just wanted to say something more, the door behind her was pushed open again, and it was Chen Kaiyu who parked the car and came in.

Zhou Manni's expression became obviously nervous, afraid that he had heard something outside the door.

But Chen Kaiyu's expression was very indifferent, as if he hadn't heard anything, glanced at the watch on his wrist, and said to Shi Nuannuan: "Nuan Nuan, why haven't you changed your clothes yet?" It's almost time to go to work. ”

"Ah, I'm running out of time!" Shi Nuannuan screamed, temporarily left Zhou Manni behind, and hurriedly ran to the punch card machine in the dressing room.

Looking at her stumbling and running posture, Chen Kaiyu showed a helpless smile, but as if he didn't see Zhou Manni standing in front of him, he passed by her and walked straight to the dressing room.

Zhou Manni's face changed, unwilling to ignore his deliberate ignorance, and mustered up the courage to turn around and stop him: "Chen Kaiyu!" ”

Chen Kaiyu stopped, but didn't turn around, just turned his face sideways, just enough for her to see his frowning slightly.

"Something?"

His tone was cold, completely different from the tone he had spoken to Shi Nuan just now, and his disinterest in her was so obvious that she couldn't ignore it.

She tightened her grip on the corner of her clothes and asked him the question in her heart again: "Do you like Nuan Nuan?" ”

Chen Kaiyu turned his head and replied indifferently: "This has nothing to do with you, right?" ”

His answer was obviously more hurtful than not answering, and Zhou Manni only felt that a sense of shame of being humiliated spread from her heart, making her watch him leave, but she didn't have the courage to catch up again.

Shi Nuannuan felt that today was really bad, because she had a headache and had to endure the inexplicable temper of several people around her.

Zhou Manni naturally didn't talk to her all day, but often secretly stared at her every move in a place where she didn't pay attention, or rather, she was observing her and Chen Kaiyu's every move. That kind of look with surveillance makes Shi Nuan's heart always go up and down.

Chen Kaiyu used his unfamiliarity with the business as an excuse and asked to follow Shi Nuannuan throughout the whole process. Maybe the beautiful man's plan was successful, and Sun Meitang really agreed to his request. So he was even more inseparable from her, helping her with trays, bookkeeping, and billing, and helping her do almost everything he could help.

Jiang Liequan is the most confused of the few, and he hasn't woken up after playing games all night, and he hasn't figured out why the original combination of the iron triangle between him, Shi Nuannuan and Zhou Manni has become the current weird scene after a weekend.

And when lunch time came, Chen Kaiyu was still following Shi Nuannuan, and he finally broke out with the emotions that he had endured all morning with this ill-intentioned man: "Hey, Nuan Nuan has been eating lunch with me all the time, can you get out of the way?!" ”

Chen Kaiyu glanced at him, and before he could answer, Shi Nuannuan explained for him: "Liequan, why are you talking to him like this?" Everyone is a colleague, isn't it good to coexist peacefully? ”

"Peaceful coexistence?" When Jiang Liequan heard this, he was even more angry, pointed at Chen Kaiyu and said, "If it weren't for him, Mannie's mood would be so wrong today?!" Don't tell me Mannie ignores you and has nothing to do with him! Originally, the relationship between the three of us was good, what was the matter if he had to intervene?! ”

When the topic came to Zhou Manni, Shi Nuannuan really felt a little uncomfortable: "This matter is not good for me, I will make it clear to her." ”

Seeing that she had taken the fault first, Jiang Liequan pulled her arm in hatred, lowered his voice and said to her, "What does it have to do with you?" It's all because of him! ”

Shi Nuannuan was determined to blame herself for this matter, walked up to Chen Kaiyu and said, "Mannie has long said that she is interesting to you, I really shouldn't get too close to you, I think...... I still won't eat lunch with you today, sorry......"

As she spoke, she carried the lunch box alone and walked over to a few employees who were dining not far away, seemingly planning to abandon Jiang Liequan as well.

Two big men stood in the locker room, you looked at me and I stared at you, and for the first time, they gave each other a roll of their eyes.

After lunch, Shi Nuannuan came to Sun Meitang's office to talk about resignation.

Although Sun Meitang has been picking her nose and eyes at her employees, she is still a little reluctant to leave when she is the most hard-working. After all, it's not easy to find such a clever and hard-working girl now, everyone thinks about working less and getting more money, and Rao is a full "exploiter" like Sun Meitang can also distinguish which employees should be hired to be the most beneficial to themselves.

"Nuan Nuan...... "It's the first time she sat down to talk to her so calmly, "L University is not very far from here, even if you want to go to study, you can come to the store to work part-time at night." ”

Shi Nuannuan was a little nervous about her opening, after all, she had not left the experience of leaving, and she always felt a little sorry for Sun Meitang: "Thank you, manager, but I hope that I can concentrate on my studies in college, and I am afraid that there is no way to continue the part-time job in the short term." ”

"But aren't you short of money? Have your financial problems been solved? Seeing that she resolutely refused to go to work again, Sun Meitang asked suspiciously.

Shi Nuannuan has been working in this café for almost a year, and because she had just turned eighteen years old, Sun Meitang felt that she was just a little girl on a whim, and she must not be able to do it for long, so she categorically rejected her. Who knew that a few months later, she came to apply for the job again, begging her to let her stay, and there was a little sadness between her eyebrows.

After several inquiries, she learned that her parents had just passed away unexpectedly, leaving a large debt to be repaid, and she had no intention of giving up her studies, and urgently needed a tuition fee and living expenses. Under double financial pressure, she was forced to need a stable job to save her life.

Perhaps because she also has a daughter, Sun Meitang, who has always been hard-hearted, agreed to her job search for the first time, and applied for the same salary as her regular employees. It is this kindness that Shi Nuannuan has always remembered, which is why she has been staying here to work despite all her difficulties. But how to explain his former economic crisis, Shi Nuannuan was worried.

It was absolutely impossible for her to tell Han Munian about the agreement with her, so she could only grit her teeth and tell a lie: "A distant relative of my family found me and was willing to help me tide over the difficulties, so now debt and tuition fees are not a problem for the time being." ”

Hearing that she had already arranged the road in the future, Sun Meitang, as an outsider, had nothing to say except to agree to her resignation application.

She sighed faintly, "Hey, you're a good girl, it's a pity...... But there is no endless road, I really feel sorry for you in the past few months, you have to take on so many things at a young age, and it is your blessing to have such a relative to help you. I see that you usually do things unambiguously, and you should also be a piece of reading material, so you can go to school in the future. ”

Shi Nuannuan didn't expect her to say such heart-wrenching words to herself, her heart warmed, and a sour feeling came to her eyes, if she hadn't worked hard to hold on, I'm afraid the tears would have flowed down.

"If you still need to work in the future, come back here, at least you won't be deceived. I can guarantee that I will give you the same salary for a month while I am still working in this shop, but not more. Sun Meitang opened an unconditional contract to her, although her tone was still stiff, but her kindness could be heard.

"Thank you, manager......" Shi Nuan Nuan bit her lip, and her nose was a little sour.

"Okay, you go out, you are not allowed to be lazy at the last post!"

Sun Meitang changed back to her stern appearance, but Shi Nuannuan always felt that her eyes revealed a faint tenderness that was different from before.

"Okay manager, I'll go out first."

Shi Nuannuan walked out of the office, and her emotions had not yet recovered, but she saw Chen Kaiyu standing at the door, leaning against the wall with his hands in his pockets, obviously waiting for her.

Seeing her reddish eyes, his chin gently raised in the direction inside: "She scolded you?" ”

"No, no." Shi Nuannuan quickly sniffed and forced the sourness back, "The manager still kept me, but I can't continue to work part-time." ”

Chen Kaiyu was no longer entangled in this matter, thought about it, and suggested: "There is still some time for the lunch break, go out for a glass of ice?" ”

A new Japanese-style shaved ice shop opened next door to the café, and many female employees in the store have been engaged in promotional activities for the past two days, saying that they must go over for a drink after work, but I didn't expect Chen Kaiyu, a young man, to keep it in mind.

Although Shi Nuannuan is also interested in shaved ice, she has to be cautious when her words come out of his mouth - with her relationship with Zhou Manni now on the cusp, even if she is on her last day of work today, she doesn't want the friendship she has built up with her to the point of irretrievability, how can she agree to his invitation.

She pursed her lips embarrassedly and carefully refused: "There are more guests on weekends, so I still go to work, thank you." ”

After saying that, she turned to go downstairs and added, "Mannie said she wants to eat shaved ice, why don't you ask her to go with her?" ”

She could feel the silence behind her, but she didn't dare to look back, because she knew she must have broken his heart, but she had no choice but to refuse his kindness.

In the afternoon, Chen Kaiyu didn't say a word to her again, and Shi Nuannuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
