Chapter 629: Chapter 630 Sister Like Mother 47_1

Huang Man didn’t care, and carried the watermelon home, just in time to see Zhao Mei scolding Huang Lina.

Seeing Huang Man, Huang Lina expressed her dissatisfaction, "Sis, how could you discuss our matters with Mom?"

"Aren’t you always telling Mom and Dad about our conversations?"

"Now I’m just following your example." Huang Man indicated she was only doing what Huang Lina did, and if anyone was to blame, it was her.

Huang Man’s words made Huang Lina’s expression stiffen, "That was all when we were kids." She’s really petty, dredging up things from so many years ago.

"Yeah, when we were kids, you had to share even the trivial things, and now you’re going to work, that’s a big deal."

"How could I not say anything?" She turned toward Zhao Mei, "Mom, don’t you think this is something you should know about?"

"Of course, it must be said." Zhao Mei looked at Huang Lina with displeasure, "Otherwise, a fully grown person just disappears from home, how could I not worry?"

"So, I dare not bear the consequences for this matter." Huang Man went to wash the watermelon and cut it in half, "I bought a watermelon, half for me, half for you all."

Huang Lina had already noticed the watermelon in Huang Man’s hand, hoping to enjoy a quarter of it.

But to her surprise, Huang Man claimed half for herself, "Can you even eat that much by yourself?"

"Of course I can." Huang Man, holding half a watermelon, went back to her room, whether or not it would be enough for them was not her concern.

Huang Xin came back at this time and saw the half watermelon on the dining table, "I’m just thirsty."

Without needing a knife, he just used some force to break the watermelon into several pieces and began to eat quickly.

Huang Lina couldn’t believe it. While she was still fuming, Huang Xin popped up and ate half the watermelon.

"Hey, Huang Xin, how could you eat half a watermelon like that?" She never imagined that, the watermelon which she’d grown tired of eating every summer, she hadn’t managed to eat at all this summer.

"If I didn’t eat it, would it be for you?" After running about half the day, Huang Xin was both tired and thirsty.

Having eaten half a watermelon, he felt a bit relieved, but his stomach wouldn’t stop protesting.

Scanning the table, "Why aren’t there any dishes?" It seems that it’s not time for dinner yet.

"No one made any." Zhao Mei, who had said she would cook dinner, ended up having a heart-to-heart with Huang Lina as soon as she got home.

But to her astonishment, the child was really spoiled rotten, even talking about earning her own money just like Huang Man and spending it as she pleased, which could not help but anger Zhao Mei.

No dinner made? Huang Xin was quite unhappy, "Why hasn’t dinner been made?"

"Ask your sister." Though she said that, Zhao Mei, of course, wouldn’t let Huang Lina speak, begrudgingly bringing up the recent events.

Upon hearing that Huang Man was going to work, Huang Xin became anxious. He had been out all day and had come upon a very important piece of news.

If handled well, he could make a fortune and even connect with some big shots.

"Sis, are you dumb? Thinking about going out to work?"

"Tell me, you’re a junior high school graduate, how much can you earn?"

"Then there’s the rent you’ll pay, the food and drink expenses, how much will you be able to save?"

"Can you buy any of the clothes you like?"

"How many pieces of jewelry can you afford for yourself?" Right now, depending on Huang Lina, Huang Xin was patiently trying to reason with her.

Looking at the Huang Xin in front of her, Huang Lina’s first thought was that he was definitely scheming against her.

The relationship between them was already as bad as it could be, "What do you want?"

Although she was tempted, Huang Lina wanted to know more about Huang Xin’s plan to use her.

"I went out today and heard people talking about opening a nightclub in the downtown area."

"Do you know what a nightclub is? It’s where rich people go, all bosses, all wealthy folks." Huang Xin hyped up the soon-to-open nightclub as an amazing place.

Huang Lina certainly knew what a nightclub was, but Huang Xin made it sound so wonderful that it made her a bit nervous.

"What are you plotting?" Huang Lina, recalling what Huang Man had mentioned before, certainly didn’t want to catch that disease.

"I know what you’re worried about, you’re afraid of getting sick, right?"

"That place is legitimate; otherwise, they wouldn’t even open. People there just accompany clients for drinks."

"Of course, if there’s someone you fancy, and they like you too, you can leave with them, and you get to keep that part of the earnings."

Huang Xin knew Huang Lina very well; she would have all sorts of worries right now, such as the fear of getting sick, and so on.

But as long as she was aware that, once she thought it through, it would all be the same as usual, plus she could make a fortune, he doubted she wouldn’t be tempted.

"You’re not lying to me?"

"Just accompany them singing and drinking?" Don’t think that Huang Lina, with only a junior high education, hasn’t also often tasted the alcohol from Huang Zhiqiang’s glass since childhood.

"Yeah, the client will absolutely not force you," Huang Xin assured her repeatedly.

"They offer a high starting salary, 100 per day, and I also heard that there’ll be commissions based on how much the customers spend, like the drinks they order, and you can get a cut of that."

"In short, the more the customer spends, the more income you can make." To reel someone in, one naturally needs to inquire thoroughly.

So that’s how it is, Huang Lina thought, quite moved by the offer, but she still had a bit of rationality left, "Why are you so eager about me taking this job?"

Huang Lina looked at Huang Xin with suspicion; she knew he wouldn’t be this enthusiastic without some benefit for himself.

"I wanted to start a business, but Mom disagreed," Huang Xin said, looking unhappily at Zhao Mei, "Then they said if I introduce a few pretty girls to work there, I could also get a job."

"And then I could earn a salary of several thousand a month." Although he was dissatisfied with not being the boss, Huang Xin felt slightly consoled by the prospect of earning a high salary.

"Really?" Huang Lina wanted to confirm again.

"Yes, I know you don’t trust me; let’s go to the downtown area tomorrow," Huang Xin promised repeatedly and offered to take her to see for herself.

"If you feel there’s anything fishy, you don’t have to go."

"Since you’re already thinking about going out to work, why not try it out?" Seeing Huang Lina’s interest, Huang Xin kept encouraging her.

After thinking it over, Huang Lina said, "I’ll ask my sister first."

It was a significant decision, and Huang Lina was somewhat uneasy, feeling she should consult Huang Man.

If possible, she actually wanted to go with Huang Man.

Ask Huang Man? Huang Xin’s heart suddenly filled with unease, "Why ask her?"

He was truly worried that with her involvement, his plan and arrangements wouldn’t come to fruition.

"I don’t trust you," Huang Lina answered directly.

Huang Xin moved his mouth but, in the end, chose not to speak, knowing that if he said anything more, he wouldn’t get good outcomes.

"No problem, let’s go together." He didn’t believe a bookworm who spent all day studying would notice any issues.

Having Huang Man as a reference was also good; if Huang Lina caused trouble later, she would have to go to Huang Man. Thinking of this, Huang Xin had no objections.
