Chapter 39 - 039: Do you want to strangle me?
Jiang Baizhou arrived, and Cen Jin, who was attending to customers in the shop, immediately spotted him and waved with a smile. She nodded to a nearby customer and hurried over to greet him: "You’re pretty quick to arrive!"
Jiang Baizhou looked around at the people inside and outside the shop, furrowing his brow slightly: "What event is going on?"
"Discounts and reductions, see!" Cen Jin pouted and pointed to the glass with recruitment information: "Ms. Qin is urgently hiring right now, so since we’re short on staff she pulled me in to make up the numbers! Ah, but I’ll tell you more about this later. Come on, help me, follow me." With that, Cen Jin took hold of his arm and led him inside.
Jiang Baizhou was dragged into the shop by her, glancing around the surroundings as he let her lead him.
The shop’s space was quite large, with a dedicated area for relaxing, reading, and having drinks. But there were hardly any empty seats, even at the checkout where there was a long queue, and plenty of customers were browsing outside too.
Ms. Qin’s bakery was an established brand on this street, having been open for thirteen years, named ’Time Inn’, thus it had many loyal customers. Especially since there’s a university at the end of this street, the majority of customers here were university students and couples.
Ms. Qin was making pastries in the inner room. Cen Jin pulled Jiang Baizhou in to greet her, and upon seeing him, Ms. Qin was understandably happy and chastised Cen Jin lightly.
To avoid further nagging from Ms. Qin, Cen Jin quickly interrupted her: "Mom, you go on, I’ll take Jiang Baizhou outside! We’re attending a class reunion later, probably leaving around five!"
