Chapter 118: Looking for Reinforcements
Tong Yao: So, not renting the shopfront to her is because she is too young?
Watching Principal Zeng’s retreating back, Tong Yao didn’t chase after him this time, since he had clearly stated his reasons for refusal. Persisting blindly would be useless and would only irritate him, making her lose any chance permanently.
Hygiene and safety could be easily handled since what she made was already very clean. But the age aspect...
Right... how could she have forgotten about Si Chen?
Would a doctor’s status be enough to reassure the principal?
With a plan in mind, Tong Yao walked back cheerfully. However, before she even reached the stall, she saw a bustling crowd in front of He Fang while Si Xiaohui was left alone without any visitors. Despite having mentally prepared for this, Tong Yao still felt disappointed.
Indeed, a disciple can starve their master!
She realized she needed to keep some tricks hidden in the future. Having someone trick her once was a learning opportunity, however being tricked twice would just make her look idiotic.
"Sister-in-law, you’re finally back, hurry up and think of a solution! Our business has been snatched away, look, all these students are going to He Fang to buy; very few come here." Upon seeing Tong Yao return, Si Xiaohui complained bitterly, her nostrils nearly fuming with anger, as if she wanted to throttle He Fang with a spoon.
Originally, students had been arriving at the school and preparing to buy bubble tea from her as usual. But He Fang simply shouted that the bubble tea was half price, and the students who were lined up to buy bubble tea from Si Xiaohui immediately ran over to He Fang’s side. Si Xiaohui was utterly incensed. If she had been a bit bolder, she would have charged over and flipped He Fang’s stall right there and then.
