CHAPTER 64: CHAPTER 64: WORKING AT THE MILK TEA SHOP

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the comments online, some people have already dug out Xuanxuan’s dad and his current wife and children.

They even dug out their relatives and friends.

Various insults and curses were hurled at them.

They didn’t even spare Xuanxuan’s stepmother’s child.

It’s not that the netizens wouldn’t spare even a child, but after watching those surveillance clips, they saw that child often hit Xuanxuan too.

Children never know if what they’re doing is right or wrong, whether they’re being too rough; when they feel like hitting, they just hit!

There was even a time when the child directly threw a bowl at Xuanxuan’s head; fortunately, Xuanxuan ducked, or else the bowl would have broken Xuanxuan’s head...

Xuanxuan’s mother officially sued Xuanxuan’s father and stepmother; both were arrested for intentional injury, assault on a minor, and other charges.

As for the final judgment, it will take some time.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyan felt relieved; now she just hopes Xuanxuan can recover his health.

Lately, Lin Xiaoyan has been going to the Special Investigation Bureau every day to receive treatment from a psychologist.

She feels her condition has improved a lot.

At least she doesn’t have nightmares at night anymore!

Once her condition stabilized, she started looking for jobs online.

The people at the police station know Lin Xiaoyan is looking for a job, and they’re very helpful in keeping an eye out for her.

Soon, Mao Hong saw the hiring notice for the tea shop across from the police station.

She immediately called Lin Xiaoyan to tell her about it.

When Lin Xiaoyan heard about it, she thought it was quite good; she quickly packed her things and rushed over.

"Hello."

Lin Xiaoyan had a slight sweat on her forehead; she arrived at the milk tea shop opposite the police station and saw the hiring notice at the door.

She walked into the milk tea shop, saw the staff making tea, and called out.

Li Mei heard someone coming in and smiled, saying, "Hello, what would you like to drink?"

Lin Xiaoyan looked behind the counter and saw there was only this one girl working.

"Hello, I saw your hiring notice at the door and wanted to ask about it."

When she heard Lin Xiaoyan was here for the job, Li Mei’s smile grew larger, "Hold on a bit, let me finish this order and I’ll talk to you."

"Okay, you go ahead."

Lin Xiaoyan glanced around and then sat down on a chair to the side.

She estimated the milk tea shop to be about fifteen square meters.

Last time she came here to order milk teas for the people at the police station, she noticed that the orders never stopped coming.

"Dingdong"

Lin Xiaoyan looked over; a delivery person walked in.

"Is order number 65 ready?"

Seeing the delivery person, Li Mei quickened her pace.

"It’s ready, hold on, I’ll put it in a bag!"

After handing the milk tea to the delivery person and seeing there were no more orders, Li Mei took a breath of relief.

"Sss~"

Li Mei moved her arm, couldn’t help but let out a "sss."

The two staff members at the store suddenly said they quit two days ago; they were going back to school and just left.

These two days have been hectic for her, feeling like her feet never touched the ground.

Almost exhausted!

Li Mei walked over to Lin Xiaoyan and sat down.

"Hello, are you a student?"

Li Mei looked at the young and tender Lin Xiaoyan and directly asked.

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head, "I have already graduated."

"Are you sure?"

Li Mei looked at Lin Xiaoyan suspiciously. "I’ll just say it upfront; I’m looking for a long-term worker, no students!"

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Li Mei, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I can work long-term, but I might need to take leave..."

"Will you be taking leaves consistently?"

"No... I think, sorry, I’m not sure."

Lin Xiaoyan apologized, because there were some things she really couldn’t be sure of.

Li Mei looked at Lin Xiaoyan and then asked a few more questions.

"Ding..."

The machine received another order.

Li Mei got up and quickly started making milk tea.

She raised her voice, "Here’s the deal: you work here for three days; if you can adapt, and if I think there’s no issue with you, then you can work here."

"Meanwhile, I’ll hire another person, so if you decide to take leave, you must tell me in advance, so I’m prepared..."

Lin Xiaoyan was delighted to hear the boss’s words, "Sure, I’ll definitely say in advance!"

"Also, if you ever need to quit, you must, must tell me in advance. At least give me a week’s notice, so that I can hire someone, otherwise..."

"I didn’t expect the two I hired before were students, and then they just left me hanging!"

Li Mei shook her lemon water angrily, "Sometimes, they even threatened me, saying if I didn’t pay them, they’d report me to the labor department!!!"

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the angry boss, felt a bit sympathetic hearing her words.

She glanced at the time; it wasn’t even noon yet, "How about I start working today; you don’t have to count the salary for this morning, I see you’re quite busy..."

Li Mei immediately agreed!

"Come, come, go to the back room and change clothes, we have new masks and hats, and then I’ll teach you."

"Okay."

With all the hustle and bustle, time flew by.

Having a job again, Lin Xiaoyan felt incredibly full of energy!

In the blink of an eye, Lin Xiaoyan had worked at the milk tea shop for three days; Li Mei was very satisfied with Lin Xiaoyan’s work attitude.

After communicating with Lin Xiaoyan, she decided to keep her on.

Lin Xiaoyan was very happy; if she worked full-time at the milk tea shop, she could earn 4500 a month.

Since Lin Xiaoyan discussed it with Li Mei in advance, she decided to settle it with a part-time salary.

One hundred per day, however many days she worked in a month is how much she gets paid.

If in a given month Lin Xiaoyan worked full-time, she’d be paid 4500.

"Hello, Xiao Lin, one matcha red bean please."

Mao Hong came over during her lunch break, smiled at Lin Xiaoyan, and ordered a milk tea.

"Sure, just a moment, Sister Hong."

When Lin Xiaoyan saw Mao Hong, she smiled and started making milk tea for her.

Li Mei, in the back, noticed that Mao Hong was familiar with Lin Xiaoyan and looked at Mao Hong’s police uniform, guessing a little about Lin Xiaoyan’s identity.

"Hey, Sister Hong, you are so fast, I wanted to come with you, but you disappeared in the blink of an eye!"

Another female police officer from the station walked in and said as she saw Mao Hong.

"Hello, Xiao Lin, I’ll have a rose honey milk tea and six servings of iced lemon water."

Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "Sure, just a moment."

"No hurry, no hurry, you take your time."

Li Mei silently placed the order; after the two paid, they chatted while watching Lin Xiaoyan work.

"The matcha red bean is ready."

Lin Xiaoyan handed the milk tea to the boss, Li Mei.

Li Mei took it and handed it to the policewoman in front of her.

"Here you are; your milk tea is ready."

Mao Hong took it and said, "Thank you."

She looked again at Lin Xiaoyan, who was still working, "Xiao Yan, I’m off now."

"Okay, bye Sister Hong."

Then, the other female police officer’s milk tea was ready, and after saying goodbye to Lin Xiaoyan, she left.

Li Mei looked at the police station across the street and then watched Lin Xiaoyan, who was working diligently.
