Chapter 127: Doctor Lu 101? I’ll pamper him for a lifetime (1 more update)_2

Being single is one thing, but for a couple to go rent a place with others, won’t that really be inconvenient?

"We also think so, but when the house is suitable, the price isn’t, and when the price is right, the house isn’t up to par. It’s hard to find something we really like," the woman added.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have thought of renting with others.

"Then I’ll give you an advance of a thousand to cover your rent, but what about your meals?"

"The master said the boss is very kind, including lunch and dinner meals."

"What about breakfast?"

"We don’t eat," the two said in unison.

Tang Su scratched her head, "Alright, let’s add each other on WeChat, and I’ll transfer the money to you."

"...Thank you, boss, we will definitely work hard," the two said to Tang Su with tears brimming in their eyes.

They had been working for a while already, and although they were young, they didn’t mind dirty or tiring work; as long as there was work, they would do it.

However, after entering society, they realized that although they weren’t afraid of hard work, the little money they earned could hardly keep up with inflation; the cost of living was ridiculously high.

No matter how much they saved, they still needed to eat and stay warm, and they couldn’t skimp on the monthly water, electricity, and gas bills. They didn’t dare look for jobs too far away, because they were afraid they couldn’t afford the transportation costs.

The woman was very simple and honest. When Tang Su asked them for their WeChat, it was the man who took out his phone, which looked old and worn, its case severely scratched, no telling how long it had been used.

In this era where people change their phones for the latest one even if their old phone isn’t broken, the living conditions of these two, in Tang Su’s eyes, seemed really pitiable.

Yet even so, they were full of hope for their future lives, a rare sight with light shining in their eyes.

Tang Su was willing to help them.

Especially since the young man’s eyes were always on the girl, looking at her, and the girl, seemingly seeing the boy as her salvation, valued everything through him.

If it were in the city, the young girl surely would be despised by many.

But such feelings, pure and beautiful, as for how far they can go, Tang Su wasn’t a fortune teller; she naturally didn’t know, but at that moment, she was willing to offer a modest helping hand to them and their pure love.

Tang Su transferred a total of five thousand to them, one thousand for the rent and the remaining four thousand for the next month’s living expenses and as a revolving fund before they received their next month’s salary.

"Boss, this?" The young man, looking at the transfer amount on the phone, couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at Tang Su.

Just like De Ge said, they hadn’t even worked a day, and to get an advance of a thousand yuan, they were already very grateful to have their housing issue resolved.

As for food and drink, they had thought it through. If the shop closed for a month, they could just go work temporary jobs at restaurants or tea shops for that month.

Life could always go on.

But a thousand suddenly turned into five thousand. Wasn’t Tang Su afraid they’d take the money and run?

"Take it; it’s yours now. First, you were chosen by Wu Jie, and I trust Wu Jie’s judgment. Secondly, I trust my instincts. As for the money, whether it’s a bonus or an advance on your salary, it will depend on your performance from now on."

"Thank you, boss, we will definitely work hard."

"Effort isn’t something you talk about with your mouth," Ruan Mei and Shen Cheng said in unison.

The two youngsters instantly understood; the boy immediately tied on an apron, put on a face mask, and went to the work area to help with orders, while the girl took a cleaning cloth and began to clean the shop.

Although the girl was only nineteen, she worked quickly and efficiently, as if she was used to doing heavy housework from a young age.

She cleaned the windows and tabletops until they were sparkling clean.

In just a few minutes, Tang Su saw her ability to work.

Shen Cheng + Ruan Mei: "..."

Was she trying to take their jobs?

Seeing the change in Shen Cheng and Ruan Mei’s expressions, Tang Su jokingly scared them, "A strong competitor has arrived; let’s see if you two dare to be lazy in the future?"

Of course, Tang Su wasn’t serious; she had no intention of exhausting her employees. A little slacking off, as long as it didn’t have much impact, was fine.

Indeed, as they said, she really was a good boss.

Mainly because her parents taught her well. They told her that if she wanted to open a store and be her own boss, she had to be a good one, and a good boss doesn’t retain employees with money, but with heart.

Tang Su took that to heart.

Shen Cheng and Ruan Mei also hurried to work, and at that moment, Tang Su approached the young girl, "I still don’t know your name, what is it?"

The girl’s eyes darted around, pleadingly looking towards the young man in the work area.

The boy immediately came over and answered Tang Su’s question, "Boss, her name is Xu Jie, and I’m Zhou Hang."

"Good names, very pleasant to hear," Tang Su praised.

Knowing that the girl was still very shy, Tang Su didn’t want to frighten her anymore. With two new people added to the coffee shop, they had ample staffing, and Tang Su suggested that Wu Jie could go to the hospital to accompany Grandpa Wu.

Wu Jie nodded, "I’ll wait a bit longer before going."

"Good, then I’m heading to the bookstore." With staffing settled, Tang Su decided to check on the bookstore.

Wu Jie followed her out and then shared something he knew, but others didn’t, "That girl’s name is Xu Zhaodi; Xu Jie is a name Zhou Hang gave her."

"So that’s it." No wonder the girl was so shy; Tang Su realized, being born into a family that favored boys over girls, she probably faced disdain and oppression daily.

Doing all the household chores at home, she might have been considered by her parents, who favored boys over girls, as eating for free and wasting food.

Tang Su hadn’t experienced it, but she had seen similar social news stories and heard stories from people with such experiences. Many can’t imagine such families and such parents do exist.

But they do, and it’s not uncommon.

"Hopefully, Zhou Hang can cherish her for a lifetime," Tang Su mused.

Wu Jie looked at her, "Why not hope for Doctor Lu to cherish you for a lifetime?"

"Doctor Lu? I’d rather cherish him for a lifetime," Tang Su said with a smile.

Wu Jie: "..."

The difference between love and lack thereof is truly vast!
