Chapter 144

She took out cat ears and put them on, her resolute expression and thirst for money slightly lowering Hua Xin's standards. She was still waiting for her life-saving money for the New Year! "Very good! Very... very spirited!" Li Xue nodded in satisfaction, looking at the adorable catgirl in front of her. Although she lacked a maid outfit, it was still a cat cafe, so she had to be more serious. Wait... catgirl? She suddenly had a new idea. Was it a waste to just put Hua Xin here like this? Her gaze shifted to the counter by the door, then back to the upright Private First Class Hua Xin, her eyes growing brighter. "Come here, little Hua Meow." Li Xue beckoned to Hua Xin, leading her to the counter. "? Little... little Hua Meow?" I'm really giving you too much credit! I have to give you a Nightmare Entanglement "meow" to your name is a catchphrase only used by QQ groups and 2D girls! I'm comparable to Tyson! Although angry, the girl only dared to think it to herself. The power of money~ "Xiao Fen, you're both at the counter. Take care of the cats when you have some free time." "Leave the cats to me first, you guys learn first." "Lao Qing, take care of the kitchen." "Okay." Shan Qing nodded, looking helplessly at his wife, and didn't continue. Of course, he knew his wife often had a lot of crazy ideas, and it seemed she had probably come up with something that would make one's eyes go black again. All the startups she'd done with Li Xue before they even started collapsed... Hopefully this one will last longer. "I have no objections, I'll follow the boss's orders!" Xia Fen stuck out her tongue and said playfully. But looking at Hua Xin's cat ears, she couldn't help but want to touch them. "Me too." Hua Xin, equally listless, added cat ears. It seems that those who have objections are always dragged out to eat purple pills. "You two stand here, let's simulate tomorrow's opening." Li Xue walked to the door and said to the two of them, then her aura changed, as if she had truly become an innocent and carefree young girl... "How much does it cost?" she asked impatiently, glancing at her phone every now and then. Hua Xin was still a little confused, stiffly turning her head to look at Xia Fen. "Beep beep beep, hum hum hum..." Xia Fen was humming a song with an indifferent expression, holding a pen and drawing a four-square grid of stick figures for the training course in her notebook, showing no intention of speaking... What's going on?! Aren't we comrades?! The girl then remembered her WeChat group with Xia Yan and Xiang Guan. Sharing the good times, leaving the group when things get tough... "Uh, see... see for yourself." Hua Xin said reluctantly, pointing her small hand to the price list on the counter under the cabinet. "Huh???!!!" "Is this your service attitude??" "I'm going to complain about you, your store can just go out of business! What's the point of opening a business!?" "You..." Li Xue wanted to continue acting, but when she came to her senses, she only saw Xia Fen, who was drawing with her head down to numb herself, and the cute cat-eared girl had disappeared. "?" No, what's going on... Is she really that scary? You know, some people are indeed unreasonable like this. Li Xue covered her forehead speechlessly and walked to the counter. When she looked inside, she saw a girl who was trembling and squatting on the ground with her arms wrapped around her knees, drawing circles with her fingers and muttering, "So scary? So scary, so scary? I want to go home and leave the group." At this moment, Hua Xin was completely frightened by Li Xue's fierce appearance and was instantly brought back to her original state from when she was in the Little Black. (Don't kill me, don't kill me, don't kill me...) (Where's Xia Yan? Xia Yan, come save me...) "Get up, Xiao Hua!" "How could you desert! You're unqualified, continue with the simulation exercise!" The girl stood up with tears in her eyes, holding a bag of cat food in her hand, as if she wanted to use it for self-defense. Hua Xin: (Scared.) "Don't run away either! Stand up!" Xia Fen, who wanted to run away, also stopped in her tracks, and finally obediently walked back with her head down. Okay, she wasn't acting just now. Compared to the front desk, Xia Fen preferred to scoop litter. "You guys..." Li Xue said with a stern face, then raised her head with a wicked smile, and said in an unfriendly tone, "None of you can escape. (JoJo face)"... The sky was getting dark. The setting sun made the already low temperature even lower. Hua Xin and Xia Fen, who had just finished training, pushed open the glass door and walked out wearily. However, compared to Xia Fen, who had taken off her employee uniform and put on her own coat and clothes, Hua Xin beside her was still wearing those pants with a few cat-patterned stains. "It's cold..." The girl shivered with a worried expression. If it weren't for the fact that she had met Xia Fen at the hospital that day, she could still be wearing a warmer hoodie to keep warm... Hua Xin tugged at her JK jacket, and the cold wind blew right through her clothes. "Sigh... I miss home." Li Xue's training just now still made her feel uneasy. Although she knew in her heart that it wasn't anything to be afraid of, she still subconsciously wanted to run away... "Sister Xin Hua, I'm going back for a bit, I forgot some things!" Xia Fen seemed to suddenly remember something, and then hurriedly ran back to the store. "Oh, oh... it's okay." Hua Xin stared blankly at the empty space beside her, Xia Fen had disappeared before she could finish speaking. Going back to warm up now... She looked at the shoes on the ground. "Forget it... we're already outside, going back would just dirty the floor, wouldn't it?" Although she was tired, she was happy. The girl thought about being able to earn enough money on her own, and a slight smile played on her lips as she gazed ahead. A few strands of hair fluttered in the wind, and Hua Xin rested her left hand on her right arm. She wasn't wearing her usual high ponytail today. Being able to go out and work to earn money was something she wouldn't have dared to dream of just a few months ago. Who was the one who caused all this and guided her towards becoming a "normal" person? "I'm back, Sister Xin Hua!" "Let's go! Cricket Front Desk, instant refinement tomorrow!" "Hmm... let's go." Xia Fen's lively voice interrupted her thoughts, and Hua Xin turned to look at her. Ah... Xia Fen was wearing a very pretty scarf around her neck, which looked very warm. It was the same red scarf she'd seen on the couple during the school break. Oh, she forgot her scarf. The girl looked away with envy, her eyelids lowered as she gazed ahead. Then, a slight puzzlement crept in: "When...?" "The shop across the street is also under renovation?" 116. Is so-called "dark history" just for others to see? 4k2 "Chun Qiu, do a somersault and see." The unique orange-yellow light of the Small Sun illuminated the Little Black. Hua Xin tightly covered herself with the blanket, curled up like a spring roll, and leaned against the headboard. Taking advantage of the abundant, diffused light, she lazily looked at the other woman, who was also lying on the bed.
