“Jiaojiao, what do you think?”
“Zhao Zhan and I believe him when he said that he wouldn’t go out and spread rumors. As for whether this matter should be done or not, the most important thing is her opinion.”
“Xiangjun, this is just a temporary plan,” Manager Li said earnestly. “Besides, even if the news of the engagement is out, as long as it’s not a marriage, there’s still room for change. You’re still young. After a year or two, I’ll find you someone suitable for you!”
Fang Tianliu nodded his head like a rattle and hurriedly added, “Yes, yes…”
“Do you even know my full name?!” Li Xiangjun looked at him angrily. “I’m not marrying anyone. I’m going to be the manager in the future!”

Business was business.
Manager Li had a thousand ways to explain the whole story to them. Whether it was her or Zhao Zhan, it was impossible for them to disagree with this.
However, not only did he not say anything, he even secretly took the silver and pocketed it.
Who knew if Manager Li would secretly create even bigger trouble if he encountered something else in the future? What if the tofu they gave out without permission was not well preserved and someone got a stomach ache from eating it?
In the face of unpredictable risks, Yue Jiaojiao didn’t want to take the risk.
Yue Jiaojiao’s mind whirred as she asked gently, “Would be willing to be our store’s shopkeeper?”
Li Xiangjun’s eyes widened and she pointed at herself in disbelief. “Are you talking to me?”
The corners of Yue Jiaojiao’s lips curled up slightly as she looked at her. “Yes, you. I can see that the calluses on your hands are in a position where you must often cook at home. If you have decent accounting skills, then the position of our store manager will be yours.”
“Madam Zhao, but she’s a woman…”
“Father, I want to do it…” Li Xiangjun showed a rare expression of coyness.
“I can wear men’s clothes. I’m not that big anyway. People can think that I’m just a silly boy. Besides, it’s better for me to be a manager than a worker running around aimlessly.

Seeing that Manager Li relented, Li Xiangjun snorted. “Father, if you still don’t agree, I will tell Mother about today’s incident!”
“There’s no need to tell her!”
Manager Li’s face was filled with panic. This daughter of his really didn’t give him any face in front of others!
“Go ahead if you want to. I trust Sir Zhao and Madam Zhao.”
Having achieved her goal, Li Xiangjun became excited. “Madam Zhao, where is our shop? Do I need to do anything?”
“You can just call me Jiaojiao. We’re about the same age, so you don’t have to be so polite.” Yue Jiaojiao had a good impression of Li Xiangjun the moment she spoke, so she was more than okay with having her as the store manager.
“Why don’t we have a meal together first? The shop has just been established and there’s nothing set up. You and Tianliu can go and take a look at it later. As for you and him…” Yue Jiaojiao cast a sidelong glance at Fang Tianliu, “I think Manager Li is right. It’s just an engagement. When the situation is over, you can just find a random reason to break off the engagement. For example, you can say that he has a bad personality.”
“Who has a bad personality?” Fang Tianliu couldn’t help but mutter, “I think I’m good at everything.
