[Expulsion: First meeting gift!] 】

"I'm fired?"

Ai Shangni, who was standing in front of the bar, looked at Lin Xiaoqi with his eyebrows crossed in disbelief, only to see him nod heavily to her.

"The boss fired you on the grounds that the labor cost was too high."

"Then why didn't Brother Lang say it all the time?" Ai Shanni was deeply skeptical of that reason.

Lin Xiaoqi raised his hands and made a helpless gesture, "Brother Lang is even more surprised than you, he and Yiqiao are the minority shareholders of this store."

"Huh?" Ai Shangni waved his hand in surprise and asked in confusion, "They also have investment in this store?"

"Yes, I've also thought about whether to tell you, but it doesn't seem to be too necessary, and Yiqiao said that you won't say it if you don't ask, so we haven't taken the initiative to mention it."

"Oh oh~" Ai Shangni didn't react too much.

Lin Xiaoqi continued, "The boss has always left the affairs of the store to Brother Lang. It's strange to say, he did know about your existence, but he fired you for that reason, and he didn't tell Brother Lang and Yiqiao in advance, it's inexplicable."

At this time, Han Dong walked into the bar, greeted Ai Shangni and said, "Sister Yini, you haven't met the boss, and he fired you, it's really hateful."

"I don't understand either." Ai Shangni turned to ask Lin Xiaoqi, "Brother Xiaoqi, has the boss come back?"

"Yes, it's weird, you can be fired over the phone, but he's come back in a rare way. He should have gone to Lang Ge in the evening and asked you to make an appointment to talk?"

"Okay, please ask Brother Qi to make an appointment for me."

So, Lin Xiaoqi called Qin Lang to call their boss to the store.

About half an hour later, Qin Lang appeared with a man who was about the same height as Lin Xiaoqi, slightly thin, and wearing a pair of glasses.

After being introduced, the two said hello, and Qin Lang took the two to the innermost box, and Handong poured them a glass of boiled water.

The man's name is Liu Yu, he is their boss, about thirty years old, just looking at the skin on his face makes people feel younger than his actual age, and the silver-rimmed glasses add a bit of maturity to him.

Liu Yu stared at Ai Shangni and sighed frequently, "I didn't expect it to be such a beautiful little girl, alas~"

Qin Lang threw a horizontal glance at Liu Yu, "Brother Yu, it was you who fired people, this will be a pity that it will be a bit fake."

"I really pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." Liu Yu was still staring at Ai Shangni, and the more she looked at it, the better she looked, the more she couldn't understand why anyone hated her.

"Then let Yi Ni continue to come back to work." Qin Lang said.

Liu Yu's gaze moved from Ai Shangni's body to Qin Lang's face, "That's not good, this labor cost is really too high."

"Where is it high, there is one less part-time job, and I am not here, Xiaoqi They will not be busy."

Ai Shangni, who had been muffled for a long time, finally spoke, "Boss, is it really because of the high labor cost to fire me?"

Her good voice was so angry, Liu Yu was weak, "Yes, that's right." The words were a little more vague.

Ai Shangni looked at Qin Lang, depressed but not tempered, "Brother Lang, since the boss fired me for this reason, I accept it."

"I'm sorry, little sister." Liu Yu still felt very embarrassed.

Qin Lang on the side leaned on the back of the sofa speechlessly, glaring at Liu Yu with angry eyes.

Ai Shangni still responded to Liu Yu politely, "It's okay, I understand. If nothing else, I'll go out first."

Looking at the lonely back of Ai Shangni leaving, Liu Yu couldn't bear it, and had the urge to stop her, but thinking that his own interests were important, he gave up.

After Ai Shangni left, Qin Lang said to Liu Yu angrily, "She is Yiqiao's girlfriend now, see how you explain to Yiqiao?"

Liu Yu also leaned back on the sofa weakly, "I fired her just because she was Yiqiao's girlfriend."

Qin Lang stood up suddenly, surprised, "What do you mean?"

Ai Shangni came to the front desk, regretting saying goodbye to Lin Xiaoqi and Handong, she wanted to put herself

Some of the items were packed back and were stopped by Lin Xiaoqi.

"Don't rush to pack your belongings, trust me, you'll be back, and soon. Objects sit on and do not take up space. Brother Lang, Sister Lishu, and Handong and I are waiting for you to come back."

Han Dong, who had just finished delivering coffee, ran back to the bar and hugged her, "Sister Yiyi, we'll wait for you to come back."

"Okay!"

Ai Shangni was moved to leave the Zuozuo Cafe for the time being.

Back at school, only Situ Bingling was in the dormitory. 'I was fired, and she bounced off her chair.'

"Why?"

"The cost of manpower is too high." Ai Shangni slumped in his chair depressedly.

Situ Bingling wondered, "This is too sudden, isn't it, didn't I notify you in advance?"

"Who knows, Brother Lang and Brother Little Qi both think it's strange."

"Will they find it strange? That means it's not that the labor cost is too high, but they know best whether the store makes money or not, and if the labor cost is too high, they know best, right?"

After Situ Bingling said this, thinking back to the attitudes of Liu Yu and Qin Lang just now, Ai Shangni felt more and more wrong.

The two looked at each other, and suddenly they looked like they were thinking of something.

But Ai Shangni immediately denied it: "No, it won't do her any good to do this."

"How could it not be." Situ Bingling waved her gel pen with a plush ball on the cap and analyzed: "Without a part-time job, first, Brother Yiqiao will no longer have the warmth of picking you up from work every three or five times; second, it leaves you with no place for self-exercise; Third, Zuozuo is a place where you and Brother Yiqiao officially met, and it is meaningful to you, and I don't want you to stay in that place."

"No, it's really Eunna?" Thinking that it was her, Ai Shangni became even more depressed.

Situ Bingling shook his little head and smiled: "Eight or nine is not far from ten, you and Brother Yiqiao are officially together, it is still a big blow to her."

"It's really ....."

"You're so lucky, the first time I met your boss, he gave you such a big gift, don't be surprised!"

Ai Shangni slapped her sullenly, "Don't be kidding, I'm so angry, what should I do?"

"Cold salad, ahaha~"

Ai Shangni didn't want to take the initiative to tell Duan Yiqiao about her dismissal, but at nine o'clock, she received a WeChat message saying that he was going to pick her up from work, and she had to say it.

Duan Yiqiao, who was at Isile Cafe, thought he had read it wrong, and confirmed it several times before calling her.

"Did Brother Chi tell you?"

"The boss told me in person." She said aggrievedly.

Duan Yiqiao was surprised, "He's back?"

"Yes, Brother Lang came to the store with him in the evening, we met, and he told me in person that he fired me because of the high cost of manpower."

Duan Yiqiao, who was on the other side of the phone, wondered for a long time that Liu Yu, who had always cared about the operation of the store, would fire Ai Shangni for that reason, and so suddenly, he didn't say a word to himself when he returned to Licheng.

So weird?

He believed that Qin Lang must have told Liu Yu that Ai Shangni was his girlfriend, how could Liu Yu fire her without saying hello to him?

He comforted her twice, and then said, "Yiyi, then you can rest for two days first, and then I will talk to you when I understand the situation."

"Okay. Do you go back to school at night or Jardine?"

"Jardine Community. My dad fainted in the store in the afternoon and went back to spend time with him in the evening."

Ai Shangni anxiously asked, "Is Uncle Duan okay?"

"It's okay, I've seen a doctor, but I haven't rested well for the first two days. Maybe a new store is about to open, and he remembered the past, and he didn't sleep very well at night."

"I'm not in a hurry, I didn't go to a part-time job, and I studied the same. You take care of Uncle Duan first, and you have something to tell me."

"I know."

After hanging up the phone, Duan Yiqiao immediately called Liu Yu, but he didn't answer, so he called

Qin Lang, Qin Lang told him the real reason why Liu Yu expelled Ai Shangni later.

Duan Yiqiao didn't expect Ye Enna to still take action against Ai Shangni.

Duan Chunji was also helping out at Yisile Coffee Shop, and seeing that Duan Yiqiao didn't seem to be in a good mood after making the call, he walked out of the bread area and came to the bar.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Nana asked Brother Yu to expel Yi Ni."

Duan Chunji was both surprised and felt that it was normal. I was surprised that Ye Enna did this in order to take revenge on Ai Shangni, and it was normal that Ye Enna's personality was not a big deal.

"What are you going to do?"

Duan Chuntong wanted to say in her heart that Duan Yiqiao would never tolerate Ye Enna's nonsense anymore, but she still believed that he would not let Ai Shangni be wronged. Even if the Ye family is kind to her family, no matter how good Ye Enna is to him, he can't let his beloved be bullied by Ye Enna like this.

At about half past nine, Duan Yiqiao took Duan Chunji back to the Yihe community.

Duan Guangping was half-lying on the bed and hadn't fallen asleep, and Shen Ruyun was chatting with him by the bedside. Seeing the two children coming back, Shen Ruyun got up and went to the kitchen to make hot soup and asked them to chat with Duan Guangping.

"Dad, are you alright?" Duan Chuntong sat on the edge of the bed, grabbed Duan Guangping's hand and rubbed it.

Duan Guangping smiled, "Children, I'm fine. Have a good night's rest, and your spirit will be restored."

"Dad, don't worry about the new store. It's not officially opened yet, and everything is still unknown. My mom and I will do everything we can to make it work."

Duan Guangping's expression was still calm, "It's going to be okay, it's going to be good, Dad believes in you."

"Thank you, Dad!"

Duan Guangping suddenly raised his head and sighed lightly, "Dad is looking at the bookstore very easily now. But I am afraid of everything, I am afraid that these two or three shops will not do well, I am afraid that the unfinished building will not have a chance to rebuild, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get back our old bungalow if I can't repay the debt. I'm afraid of ......"

"Dad, don't be afraid, don't be afraid of anything, everything will slowly get better." Duan Yiqiao comforted him.

Duan Chunzhi looked at Duan Guangping with distressed eyes, "Dad, you trust my brother and mother, they will take care of everything, and I will also help."

"Okay, Daddy doesn't worry!" Duan Guangping looked at the two sensible children and sighed with emotion.

His hands were clasped with them, and the touch was like when they were children, but their psychology was already half an adult, and they would think about many things for others, and they were also trying to take on their own responsibilities.

If he hadn't gone bankrupt, the two children would have been more carefree than they are now.

The more Duan Guangping thought about it, the more sad he became, and just when his tears were about to condense, Shen Ruyun called the two children to drink soup, so that he did not expose his vulnerability in front of the children.

The soup was for dinner, Shen Ruyun stewed it for Duan Guangping to replenish his body, and there was still a lot left, so she warmed it up for the two children to drink.

"Mom, Dad is really fine, look at his eyes always showing sadness." Duan Yiqiao said while drinking soup.

Shen Ruyun rolled down her cuffs, "It's okay. He just thinks too much and can't sleep, I know all the nightmares he has, but I didn't expect to faint due to lack of energy. I had already given him sleeping pills before you came back, and now it's almost time to sleep. It's all right after a night's sleep."

Hearing Shen Ruyun say this, Duan Yiqiao didn't say anything more.
