557 Store Manager

“Our Xiaxia is still a big actress. Eagles should soar in the wider world. Chu Lin must have come to look for you many times in the past few years, right? You’ve guarded the dessert shop for me for four years. In the future, do something you like.”

Su Wan patted Xia Jing’s hand. Her tone was gentle and her eyes curved.

Seeing that scene just now, she had long guessed much of it. The last time Xia Jing mentioned Chu Lin in front of her, she was thinking about her own matters. She was actually careless and did not understand the conflict in Xia Jing’s eyes and the anticipation in her words.

Xia Jing was stunned. She had originally planned to tell Su Wan about this today, but she did not expect Su Wan to have guessed her thoughts. She was a little touched and tears were about to fill her eyes. “Wan wan…”

“Stop!” Su Wan quickly raised her hand to stop her and wiped Xia Jing’s tears. “You’re about to be a bride, so smile happily. Xiaxia, I’m very happy to see you happy.”

With that, Su Wan turned to Chu Lin and said, “Chu Lin, the Crown Prince of the entertainment industry, I only have one request. Protect our Xiaxia well. Otherwise, I, Su Wan, will be the first to disagree. The Su Corporation is Xiaxia’s backing.”

This was the first time Su Wan said this to Chu Lin so solemnly. She would save some words for their wedding next time.

Chu Lin chuckled and looked at Xia Jing dotingly. “The entire Chu Family will become Xiaxia’s backing. She just needs to do what she wants. Don’t worry about anything else.”

“Just remember to send an invitation when you get married.”

After Su Wan finished speaking, the three of them smiled. The young waiters in the two shops also looked at them and laughed softly.

In the end, Chu Lin picked Xia Jing up. Xin Yue was on leave today, so only Su Wan and the two waiters were left in the shop.

There were still many customers coming and going. When she was busy, Su Wan had no time to care about so many things, but once she was free, she felt empty in her heart. She often held her chin with both hands and stood at the counter in a daze.

The two waiters seemed to be a little shy. They were hesitating if they should go forward and chat with Su Wan. Before they could decide, Su Wan suddenly waved at them. “The two of you, come here.”

The two of them were stunned for a moment before they slowly moved towards the counter. They didn’t know much about Su Wan, the new boss. They only knew that the three bosses seemed to have a good relationship and… from the news online, Su Wan seemed to be the new CEO of the huge Su Corporation.

Su Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at their actions. “Are you so afraid of me? I’m not a ferocious beast. I won’t eat you.”

Only then did the two waiters become bolder. They reached the counter in a few steps and stood in front of Su Wan obediently, looking like they were listening to her lecture.

Su Wan was really helpless, but she didn’t care about this. She asked casually, “How many years have you guys been working here?”

In her memory, she seemed to have hired a waiter four years ago, but she had no impression of it.

“Three… three and a half years.” One of the girls was trembling with fear. From time to time, she would look up to secretly observe Su Wan’s reaction.

“There were two older girls around previously, but they resigned later.” The other seemed to think that Su Wan had a good personality and boldly followed her companion’s words.

“I see…” Su Wan nodded thoughtfully. “Then do you want to continue being waiters?”

“Huh?” The two waiters didn’t understand what Su Wan meant and looked at each other. Su Wan actually found their stunned look a little cute.

Su Wan smiled. “How about I promote you to be the store manager?”

One would remain here, and the other would go to another branch.

Xin Yue was a top dessert chef internationally. She thought about it and felt that it was a waste of her talent to let Xin Yue stay here. If Xin Yue was willing, she could let Xin Yue work at the Su Corporation. Su Wan felt inexplicably amused just thinking about that scene.

At the very least, this shop could not be closed. This place carried everything that the three of them had done along the way.

The subsidiary of the Su Corporation was Zhang Qing’s dessert company. Now, its status in the business circle was second only to the Su Corporation. It was just that many people did not know that the CEO was also her. She wanted to treat this shop as the first shop in the branch.

She remembered that Su Jing had told her that he liked medicine, so she still had to return to the Su Corporation in the end. But between now and then, she had to deal with these current matters properly.
