Nan Xi and Xiao Bo were watching the workers install equipnt in the store opposite.
When Lin Xiaoyan silently arrived at the store, she had already sorted out all her emotions.
At the police station, except for the director, nobody knew what He Qi’an was doing.
Lin Xiaoyan didn’t tell anyone either.
"Xiao Yan, the store will be ready today, and we can open for business tomorrow." Nan Xi ca over and said.
Lin Xiaoyan glanced around the store, nodded, a little absent-minded.
Her mind was still on He Qi’an, who had left.
Xiao Bo stayed in the store, while Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi went ho first.
When she got ho, Lin Xiaoyan saw her brother and told him that the store would be open for business tomorrow.
Lin Hao silently nodded.
It was only then that Lin Xiaoyan realized that everyone’s expression was a bit off.
Mom and Dad’s expressions seed strange.
She looked at everyone, "What’s wrong?"
Lin Fu and Lin Mu glanced at their son and daughter-in-law, both feeling extrely disappointed.
Fan Lalan nudged her husband, but Lin Hao kept his head down.
He was too ashad to face his sister.
Fan Lalan couldn’t hold it in anymore, she looked at Lin Xiaoyan and said, "Yanyan, your brother and I have discussed it, and we want to go back ho."
"Over here in Sea City, the cost of living is too high. Plus, I don’t have friends here, and I stay at ho all day. I...I don’t know my way around, and no one keeps company..."
Lin Xiaoyan listened to her sister-in-law and nodded in understanding.
Back when she was alone in Sea City, she felt the sa way.
However, her sister-in-law had it much better; at least her family was around her.
"So, your brother and I have discussed it, and we want to go back ho and open a milk tea shop there."
When Lin Xiaoyan heard this, she looked up at her brother.
"Brother, you want to go back and open a milk tea shop?"
Lin Hao slowly looked up, feeling deeply guilty.
"Yanyan, I..."
Fan Lalan imdiately said, "Yanyan, we thought that if we return to open the shop, we wouldn’t repay the money we owe you for now. Once we make money, we’ll pay you back together, okay?"
Lin Xiaoyan’s gaze turned to her parents.
Lin Fu frowned deeply, showing clear disapproval.
"Now that Yanyan is back, let’s sit down and discuss this properly."
Lin Fu spoke up.
Upon hearing Lin Fu speak, Lin Hao and Fan Lalan imdiately sat up straight.
Seeing the situation, Nan Xi quickly picked up An’an, who was nearby, and took him upstairs to play.
Without outsiders present, Lin Fu looked at his son and daughter-in-law.
"Are you two sure you want to go back and open a shop?"
Fan Lalan nudged her husband.
Lin Hao feared his father the most. He was a bit nervous, but his wife kept nudging him with her foot, so he had to nod.
"Yes."
Lin Xiaoyan was shocked by her brother and sister-in-law’s decision, and at the sa ti felt uncomfortable.
Adding to He Qi’an just leaving, everything piled up, and she sat there expressionless, looking at them.
Lin Mu saw her daughter’s expression and glared at her son.
Lin Fu looked at his son, eyes full of disappointnt, "You only saw that Yanyan’s shop was doing well, but didn’t consider how other shops were doing before making this decision?"
Fan Lalan imdiately said, "Dad, recently I’ve visited a lot of milk tea shops in Sea City, and business is generally good!"
"But have you considered that this is a big city, it’s not the sa as our hotown!"
"Have you thought about whether it’s suitable to open a shop in our small hotown?
And the costs of opening a shop, do you have the money?"
Lin Fu looked at his son, "Not to ntion the money you still owe, your sister gave you such a high salary at her shop, from last year to now, how much have you saved?
Without repaying the money, you’re rushing into opening a shop.
Not even the basic market research has been done!
You’re only looking at Sea City’s situation, without considering our hotown’s situation!"
"It’s because she’s your sister; if it were soone else, they would definitely scold you for this!"
Lin Hao listened to his father’s words, knowing that making this decision was unfair to his sister.
He looked at his sister with a complex expression, "Yanyan, I’m sorry, I..."
Seeing her brother and sister-in-law’s expressions, Lin Xiaoyan suddenly felt a sense of helplessness.
She waved her hand, "Brother, you don’t need to say anything."
Lin Xiaoyan sighed, "The money you owe , I’ll let it go for now. Since you’ve decided with my sister-in-law to go back, then... you should go."
"Just one thing."
Lin Xiaoyan looked seriously at her brother, "Brother, once you leave the store, I’ll find a new manager. If, if you want to co back, it won’t be possible."
Lin Hao understood his sister’s aning now, that if he went back ho and the business failed, she wouldn’t help him again.
Lin Hao hesitated, knowing that his sister currently paid him a salary of fifteen thousand a month.
This salary is high anywhere, and it’s only this high because he’s her brother.
If he kept working here, he could repay his sister’s money in two to three years.
If he returned ho...
Fan Lalan said directly, "Okay, then my husband and I will return ho tomorrow and look for a place to prepare to open the shop!"
"It’s just... the money to open the shop, we..."
Lin Mu shook her head, truly not knowing what to say.
Lin Fu directly interrupted Fan Lalan, "Without money, how can you open a shop?"
These words left Lin Hao and Fan Lalan blushing with embarrassnt and sha.
Lin Hao imdiately said, "We have... we have money."
Lin Fu wanted to say, how much money? Why didn’t you take it out when you owed money!
Lin Mu nudged Lin Fu, stopping him from saying more.
"When you go back, what about An’an? Are we all going back together? Or will An’an stay with us in Sea City?"
Lin Mu asked.
When Lin Xiaoyan heard that her parents were also leaving, she imdiately looked up at her brother and sister-in-law.
Fan Lalan imdiately said, "Mom and Dad, co back with us. Didn’t you say you’re not used to living in Sea City?"
Lin Fu and Lin Mu: ......
Lin Fu and Lin Mu looked at their daughter, while Lin Xiaoyan looked at her parents. Although she was reluctant in her heart, she knew that if her brother and sister-in-law returned, her parents would definitely go back as well.
"Mom and Dad, you decide, I’ll notify the store about starting work tomorrow."
Lin Xiaoyan didn’t want to sit there any longer, so she went upstairs directly.
Seeing his sister’s deanor, Lin Hao realized she was angry.
Lin Fu and Lin Mu sighed repeatedly, "What a ss this has beco!"
Lin Xiaoyan recalled that last ti when she and her brother went ho, the operation of the store was also quite good then.
Now she needed to choose one of the remaining employees to be the store manager.
She thought about it and reached out to Li Wen to ask for his opinion.
Li Wen is considered a long-ti employee at the store. Although he usually attends classes, he cos to the store every holiday, and he knows the team mbers’ personalities and work abilities well.
Li Wen happened to be free at this mont, and when he received his boss’s call and learned that the store manager was leaving, he was taken aback.
Hearing his boss inquire about the staff situation, he thought about it and recomnded soone to his boss.
