A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

"clown???"

Upon hearing this...

Yuan Xiangrong's face turned completely green.

He wanted to say something to save face, but couldn't find anything sarcastic to say for the time being.

Although his words were very direct, he was indeed quite clownish.

Wang Ziying remained silent. She watched Lu Yang standing at the bar, with two pretty girls surrounding him calling him "boss," and she couldn't quite describe the feeling in her heart.

At the same time, Xia Ning laughed.

Xia Qing, standing next to her, also smiled, a rare occurrence for her.

This boss is really interesting.

Yuan Xiangrong gritted his teeth: "So what if you own this shop? There are dozens of milk tea shops on this street alone. To put it bluntly, nine and a half out of ten college students who start their own businesses lose money!"

"And you probably took out a loan to open this shop, right?"

"College students, think carefully before taking out loans to start a business. If you fail, you'll never recover!"

The voice just fell.

Xia Ning couldn't hold back any longer. She pouted and immediately said, "How can you talk like that?"

Her tone was angry, and the rabbit hair clip swayed twice, but this time it wasn't cute; it looked more like it had pricked up its ears and was about to bite.

"What did our boss do to you? Fine, you won't buy milk tea, but why are you cursing the shop to go out of business?"

Speaking of it.

Xia Ning put her hands on her hips and glared fiercely at Yuan Xiangrong.

You know, if Lu Yang's shop goes out of business, where will they find such high-paying jobs?

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents.

How could she not be angry?

Yuan Xiangrong's face turned even uglier after Xia Ning's retort.

As the class monitor, he was actually scolded by a girl working at a bubble tea shop.

What's worse, this girl is prettier than the school beauty he likes.

This was unacceptable to him.

Why does Lu Yang get all the good things?

At this moment, Xia Qing, who had been silent all along, finally moved.

She raised her right hand, slowly moved her wrist, and then looked at Lu Yang.

It was as if she was saying: if needed, she could kick these people out at any time.

If Xia Ning's counterattack just now was a verbal barrage of suppression...

Xia Qing's move was a physical form of nuclear deterrence.

Yuan Xiangrong subconsciously took half a step back.

It's not that he's a coward.

It was the woman's aura that was so oppressive.

"roll."

Xia Qing coldly uttered a single word.

Not heavy, not light, but just that one word made the people in the front row tremble.

Immediately afterwards, a short boy came out.

His surname was Sun, and his given name was Sun Li. He usually liked to stay by Yuan Xiangrong's side and they even addressed each other as brothers.

To put it bluntly, he's just someone else's lackey.

Now that his master has been insulted, this lackey has no choice but to save face.

Sun Li took two steps forward:

"Your boss hasn't said a word, so what are you, a mere employee, acting like such a big shot..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sun Li leaned forward and bumped his shoulder into Xia Qing's arm.

The instant of contact.

It happened so fast that no one present could react in time.

Xia Qing's arm shot out reflexively.

bump.

A muffled thud.

Sun Li flew out sideways.

It's not an exaggeration, it really flew.

The entire process took less than a second.

Yes, it's still that familiar "Flick and Flash".

This time, Xia Ning not only didn't stop her, but even gave Xia Qing a thumbs up.

Just beat them to a pulp!

They actually hoped their boss's shop would go bankrupt!

bah bah bah!

"Oh my god..."

"Have I seen her somewhere before?"

"No wonder she seemed so familiar! Turns out she's Xia Qing from the school next door!"

At that moment, the students around him suddenly remembered.

A couple of days ago, they saw a post on the forum about a tall woman who was 1.8 meters tall and was knocked flying along with her guitar... That's her!

this time.

They finally realized they'd kicked a hornet's nest.

Although Xia Qing is the school beauty of the neighboring school, she is also the one you shouldn't mess with.

Any guy who dares to pursue her is lucky if he gets slapped away.

Xia Qing reiterated once more: "Get out."

Yuan Xiangrong gritted his teeth and his tone hardened: "Fine, I'll go!"

Done.

The group turned around and left immediately.

Before leaving, Xia Ning gave them a funny face: hehehe...

Now the shop is finally quiet.

Xia Ning held it in for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"Hehe, sis! You're so cool!"

Xia Qing ignored her and went back to wipe the table, as if nothing had happened.

Lu Yang smiled as well.

I never expected that I would not only hire an employee, but also a bodyguard.

This return on investment is absolutely incredible!

"Alright, you've worked hard today. Go tidy up and head home."

Seeing that it was almost time for the day, Lu Yang smiled and said to the two of them.

Upon hearing the words "off work," Xia Ning instantly perked up: "Yay! Off work!"

"Boss, let's go change!"

"Okay, go ahead."

Xia Ning dragged Xia Qing into the changing room.

A few minutes later, the two came out. Xia Ning had changed back into the white T-shirt and denim shorts, but she still had the rabbit hair clip on her head, probably because she had forgotten about it.

Xia Qing changed into a tracksuit, looking clean and tidy.

"See you tomorrow, boss..."

Xia Ning slung her little crossbody bag over her shoulder and skipped towards the door.

Xia Qing did not leave.

Xia Ning stopped and turned to look at her.

Xia Qing clenched her fingers slightly, then relaxed them.

She opened her mouth, then paused.

"Boss."

"Um?"

Lu Yang asked, "Is there anything else?"

Xia Qing took a breath and asked, "Can I get an advance on my salary?"

It seemed as if she used all her strength to say those words.

Xia Ning's smile vanished instantly, her hands hung at her sides, and she lowered her head without saying a word.

Xia Qing has always been very strong-willed, and she would never ask for help unless absolutely necessary.

"How much do you need to advance?"

Lu Yang asked.

"For one week."

Lu Yang frowned.

Xia Qing's expression remained unchanged, as cold as ever, but her hands were clenching repeatedly.

"Did something happen?"

Lu Yang immediately noticed it.

Xia Qing did not answer.

Xia Ning stood to the side, her lips moved slightly, then closed again.

She wanted to say it, but couldn't bring herself to say it.

Lu Yang could tell that the two people's reactions were clearly very strange.

Moreover, given Xia Ning's personality, her sudden silence can only mean that something is on her mind, and that she is not in a position to speak up for Xia Qing in this matter.

Xia Qing didn't offer any explanation.

She stood there, waiting for Lu Yang's reply.

Ultimately, this was only her first day at work, and she was already asking for an advance on her salary. Any boss would find that somewhat inappropriate.

But Lu Yang is not just any boss.

He doesn't need to know the reason.

If someone who never asks for help asks for it today, it means she's truly at her wit's end and has no other choice.

Lu Yang took out his phone and opened the other party's WeChat chat window.

Then I opened the transfer page and entered a number.

soon.

Xia Qing's phone pinged.

She glanced down at her phone screen.

Amount received: 10000 yuan.

A crack finally appeared in her expression.

It wasn't the kind of unexpected, surprising crack; it was the kind of sudden, unprepared blow.

"Boss, you don't need so much..."

"Take it."

Lu Yang put his phone back in his pocket, speaking casually.

"Any extra will be considered an advance for next month; if it's not enough, just let me know."
