Chapter 371: Aren’t You Afraid of Drinking Someone To Death?
Tong Yao took a day off at home, and the next day she refused to stay at home. Si Chen initially disagreed with her going back to work, but later, seeing that Deng Wenwen had a bicycle and could take Tong Yao to the shop, he reluctantly compromised.
However, he insisted that she had to finish work early in the afternoon to go to the hospital to change her medicine. Tong Yao felt Si Chen was making a mountain out of a molehill, but for the sake of marital harmony, she agreed to this somewhat exaggerated demand.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed. The shop across the street opened, the business was very good, but Tong Yao’s customer base had halved, which was something she expected, so she didn’t feel surprised.
People have the habit of preferring novelty and growing tired of the old. It’s perfectly normal to want to try a new flavor after sticking to one brand for a long time.
There would be even more milk tea brands in the future, and the business competition would become fierce. Tong Yao preferred to be a hands-off stockholder and not involve herself in the day-to-day operations.
Unlike Tong Yao, Deng Wenwen didn’t have the same level of patience. Whenever she had nothing better to do, she would pay attention to the business across the street, counting how many customers they had and how many cups of milk tea they sold.
"Sister Yaoyao, what do you think the boss across the street is up to? Why on earth did he open a shop right in front of ours? There are so many places in Kyoto, why did he have to do it here? It’s obviously up to no good."
Tong Yao lifted her eyelids and glanced across the street, grinning mischievously. "Over time, the fox’s tail will reveal itself. Just wait patiently."
