Chapter 366: Caught as soon as I Step Out
Tong Yao chuckled out loud, nearly spitting out her mouthful of porridge. She quickly swallowed it down before saying, "Miss, what do you plan to do now?"
Deng Wenwen put her chopsticks aside and turned to Tong Yao, asking sweetly, "Sister Yaoyao, are you still hiring at your tea shop? I was thinking of working there."
Tong Yao raised an eyebrow, asking, "Do your parents agree?" Since one of her student employees was about to graduate and had secured a government job, she needed to hire another worker. However, her Director Deng had high expectations for Wenwen and saw working at the tea shop as beneath her.
"Don’t worry about it." Deng Wenwen said gleefully, "Sister Yaoyao, I spent all of last night convincing my parents. I cried and made a scene, even threatening to commit suicide. In the end, they gave in and agreed".
Tong Yao shook her head with a touch of humor, "So ... your eyes are swollen, not because you felt wronged, but because you were trying to get your parents to let you work at the tea shop?"
"Yes!" Deng Wenwen nodded vigorously, continuing to shake Tong Yao’s arm pleadingly, "Sister Yaoyao, now that my parents have agreed, can I work in your shop?"
Tong Yao laughed, "Can I refuse when your parents have already agreed? You could stop shaking my arm now, you will tear it off my body".
Deng Wenwen had worked at the tea shop for some time in the past and was relatively familiar with the essentials of tea making. Therefore, her working in the shop would be ideal.
