Lin Hao smiled, "When I go back, I’ll make sure it only stays in the guest room. I’m afraid it’ll cause havoc at ho."
Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "That’s good. I also like small dogs, as long as it doesn’t co into my room."
"Don’t worry, it’s very well-behaved."
"Ding dong..."
A custor arrived, and Lin Hao imdiately returned to the bar to ask what they wanted to drink.
At this mont, Li Wen ca out and stood in front of Lin Xiaoyan, saying, "Boss, this is my sister."
Li Wen slowly turned around to reveal a thin, shy girl.
Lin Xiaoyan raised an eyebrow, "Your sister?"
"Yeah, she’s off school this weekend so she’s here to help out at the shop. I’ve asked the manager, so..."
"Isn’t she busy with her studies?" Lin Xiaoyan looked at the girl behind, who kept her head down.
Li Wen looked at his sister, gently saying, "My sister’s doing alright with her studies."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan understood that this "doing alright" actually ant she was doing well!
"Can she co to work here part-ti on Saturdays and Sundays?" Li Wen asked.
Lin Xiaoyan felt a bit puzzled. Wasn’t Jiang Rong handling Li Wen’s family issues? Could it be that they’re not resolved yet?
"Sure, but she needs to get a health certificate..."
Li Wen saw Lin Xiaoyan agree, and he smiled, "That’s already taken care of."
"Great." Lin Xiaoyan looked at the girl, "What’s your na?"
Li Jing gently raised her head, glanced at Lin Xiaoyan, then quickly lowered it again, whispering, "Li Jing."
"Li Jing?"
Lin Xiaoyan looked at Li Jing’s frightened expression; it reminded her a lot of herself from before.
Lin Xiaoyan softly said, "Xiao Jing, if you’re free during your break, you can co here. Just don’t let it affect your studies, okay..."
Lin Xiaoyan contemplated for a mont and continued, "If you feel lonely at ho, you can bring your howork and study here."
Li Jing heard she could study in the shop and secretly looked up at Lin Xiaoyan, quietly saying, "Thanks, Boss."
Lin Xiaoyan squinted her eyes, smiling, "You’re welco."
Li Wen gratefully looked at Lin Xiaoyan and then took his sister to work.
"Manager, the refrigerator seems broken; it’s making a constant noise..."
A staff mber called out to Lin Hao, saying the refrigerator seed broken.
"Let check."
Lin Hao told Li Wen to guard the bar while he went to check the refrigerator at the back.
Lin Xiaoyan walked over and stood outside the bar, watching.
"How’s it? Is the refrigerator broken?"
Lin Hao checked and nodded, "It does seem broken. The engine is constantly buzzing, but it’s not cooling anymore. We need to call soone to fix it."
"I’ll check. If it’s really beyond repair, let’s just get a new one."
Lin Xiaoyan walked towards the back, saying, "This refrigerator is quite old; its capacity is small. If it’s broken, we should replace it with a larger one."
When she arrived at the refrigerator, Li Jing happened to be coming out holding sothing from the workspace.
Lin Xiaoyan made way, but the operation space in the back was limited, and now they were all gathered here, making it a bit crowded.
Li Jing accidentally bumped into Lin Xiaoyan and quickly said, "Sorry, Boss..."
Lin Xiaoyan lightly furrowed her brow, clenching her fist, "watching" Li Jing’s scene.
Li Jing keenly sensed the boss’s emotions seed to be a bit angry, she shrank her head, feeling a bit helpless.
"Sorry...sorry..."
Lin Xiaoyan snapped back, looking at the slightly fearful Li Jing in front of her, exhaled, and said slowly, "It’s okay."
Li Jing looked up at Lin Xiaoyan and found she indeed wasn’t angry, and felt relieved, quickly moving aside to work.
Lin Xiaoyan’s gaze turned to the cautious and careful Li Jing working, she took a deep breath, feeling a surge of sadness and anger.
"Yanyan, should we replace it or call soone to repair it?" Lin Hao stood up, asking his sister.
Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the refrigerator, "Buy a new one."
"When should we buy it?"
Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the ti, "Now, I’ll check if there’s an electronics store nearby."
A staff mber standing by Li Wen imdiately ntioned where the local appliance market was.
Lin Xiaoyan looked at the route; it was quite close.
"Brother, co with , let’s pick out a new one."
"Alright."
Lin Xiaoyan joined her brother in going to the electronics market and picked out a large-capacity refrigerator.
She directly instructed the shop to deliver it imdiately.
Wanting to use it quickly, she followed the shop’s advice and took the store sample directly.
As Lin Xiaoyan reached the store entrance, she glanced inside, "Brother, you go in; I have sothing to do, so I won’t co in."
Lin Hao glanced at the store, which was now busy again, and nodded, "Okay." He quickly went inside to help.
Lin Xiaoyan turned and walked towards the police station.
"Xiao Lin is here."
"Xiao Lin."
"Hello..."
When Lin Xiaoyan entered the police station, everyone warmly greeted her.
"Xiao Lin!"
Mao Hong had just co out of the restroom and was pleasantly surprised to see Lin Xiaoyan, walking over joyfully.
"Sister Hong."
"Why are you here? Sothing up?" Mao Hong looked at Lin Xiaoyan with bright eyes.
Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "Yes, who’s in the office today?"
"Captain He is in, Captain Ma went on a mission."
"Good." Lin Xiaoyan then entered the office.
He Qi’an had already heard Lin Xiaoyan’s voice and looked at her, asking, "What’s wrong?"
Lin Xiaoyan sat down in front of He Qi’an, looking serious.
"Just now, I ca across a girl. She’s attending high school..."
"I saw those girls constantly bullying her, beating her up randomly in the dormitory..."
"The final scene was that the girl couldn’t take it anymore and jumped off the school..."
Upon hearing this conclusion, He Qi’an’s face turned cold.
"What’s the girl’s na and what school is it?"
"Li Jing, I’m not sure about the school. I can ask her brother; they are working part-ti at my shop now..."
"There’s sothing else..." Lin Xiaoyan slightly frowned, unsure how to put it.
"What is it?" He Qi’an noted down Li Jing’s na.
"It’s just... this pair of siblings seems to be involved in so other matters..."
He Qi’an raised his head, "What kind of matters? A murder case?"
Lin Xiaoyan hurriedly waved her hand, "No, no! It’s about the Xuan Sect."
Lin Xiaoyan whispered, "Previously, when I went to Beijing for a month, a colleague from Sea City’s Special Investigation Bureau helped watch my shop..."
"She found that Li Wen’s family seed to be involved in so fate-changing matter. When I ca back, she said she would investigate and resolve it..."
Lin Xiaoyan looked worried, "I just tried to call Jiang Rong, but couldn’t reach her, and she hasn’t replied to my ssages. I’m worried she might be in trouble..."
"And Li Jing’s issue... could it be related to the fate change?" Lin Xiaoyan speculated.
Upon hearing that this matter involved soone from the Xuan Sect, He Qi’an’s expression grew more serious.
"If that’s the case, let’s have soone from the Xuan Sect investigate." He Qi’an said.
