“This supermarket hasn’t opened yet. May I ask who you are?” Li Xiaomei thought Zhang Li was going to be rude, but she was actually very polite. Li Xiaomei walked over.

Xiao Lingyu didn’t answer directly, but Zeng Yaozu, who was next to her, asked seriously, “Are you all employees here?” He looked around.

Zhang Li’s expression froze. She was the one who asked him the question, but he was questioning him back. However, this man was handsome and had a good temperament. His clothes were all branded, and his eyes were bright and beautiful. At a glance, one could tell that he was a rich man.

For the single Zhang Li, this man was a catch.

Zhang Li tidied her clothes, combed her hair, and answered with a sweet smile, “That’s right. Because our shop hasn’t opened yet, everyone here is an employee. Except the two of you, of course. May I know who you are?”

The others had no idea what Zhang Li was up to.

Zeng Yaozu said, “It’s nothing. We stopped because we were curious as we were passing by.”

Zhang Li frowned and asked, “But we haven’t opened yet. What’s there to see?”

“The decorations outside are good, so I wanted to come in to check out the interior design.” Zeng Yaozu asked, “I saw the sign. Will you sell vegetables here?”

Zhang Li nodded and said, “Yes. Is there any other question? If not, I have to go back to my work.” Although she was curious about whether Zeng Yaozu was a rich man, he obviously had other reasons for coming here. She was just an ordinary employee and did not want to get entangled.

Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Well, go and do your work! We’ll just look around!”

Zhang Li nodded. She turned around and left.

Zhou Xiaolu was an astute person. She noticed that Xiao Lingyu had been looking around and nodding from time to time after she entered. She had a guess of these two’s identities. They were either from the renovation company or the owners of the supermarket.

Zhou Xiaolu repped forward and asked with a smile, “Hello. How can I help you?”

Zeng Yaozu looked around and asked, “I saw the sign outside. You’ll be selling vegetables here, right? What kind of vegetables you’ll be selling that you need such a big store?”

Zhou Xiaoru smiled politely. “Our store will sell farmed produce from Green Fresh in Taoyuan Village. They are all organic vegetables.”

“Organic vegetables?” Zeng Yaozu frowned and asked, “Is there anything special about it?”

Zhou Xiaolu explained, “Organic vegetables are pure green, non-polluting green vegetables. Naturally, the price is higher than ordinary vegetables.

“However, the organic vegetables in our store are more special than other organic vegetables. Our vegetables have been tested by authorities and have a kind of active molecules that are beneficial to the body. They are good for your health.”

Zeng Yaozu pretended to be puzzled and asked, “Are there really such miraculous vegetables?”

“Yes, there is!” Zhou Xiaolu replied with a smile, “And we’ll be selling them in the future.”

“You’re not lying to me, are you?” Zeng Yaozu looked at Zhou Xiaolu suspiciously as if he did not believe her.

At this moment, Zhang Li said, “Who are you? Why do we need to lie to you?” Zhang Li turned to Zhou Xiaolu and said, “Xiaolu, ignore them. We still have a lot to do to prepare for the opening.”

As soon as Zhang Li said this, Zhou Xiaolu, who was observing Xiao Lingyu’s expression, immediately noticed her slight frown.

For this reason, she was even more certain that this was the owner of the store. She heard that the boss of Green Fresh was a very beautiful and tall woman.

The woman in front of her definitely fitted the description of the woman who appeared at the Zeng Family’s vegetable store.

They didn’t reveal their identities because they were probably doing an inspection.

With this in mind, Zhou Xiaolu smiled. “All guests are welcome. It doesn’t matter whether the shop is open or not.”

“Xiaomei, what do you think these two are doing here?” Zhang Li pulled Li Xiaomei and asked in a low voice.

Li Xiaomei shook her head and said, “It doesn’t matter what they are doing here. It doesn’t hinder us from doing our work!”

Zhang Li said unwillingly, “That’s true. But I can’t bear to have these two acting like some kind of bosses surveying our work.”

Li Xiaomei was shocked, and then she looked at Xiao Lingyu and Zeng Yanzu. The woman was beautiful, the man was handsome, and they were dressed fashionably. At first glance, it was obvious that they were not people who often bought vegetables and cooked. They had been asking questions about what they sold even though there was a big sign outside. It was impossible for them not to see it. So they were probably there for another reason.

As for the real reason… Li Xiaomei lowered her head and thought for a moment. Then, her eyes widened, and she was shocked. ‘These two people… These two people couldn’t be… The Bosses, right?’

But that would explain these two’s behavior.

After Li Xiaomei figured this out, she immediately went forward and said with a smile, “Hello, can I help you two?”

Xiao Lingyu and Zeng Yaozu, “…”

Zhou Xiaolu, “…”

Zhang Li, “…” What’s going on?

When Zhou Xiaolu saw Li Xiaomei coming over and saw the fawning smile on her face, Zhou Xiaolu’s expression changed slightly, but it quickly returned to normal.

Xiao Lingyu and Zeng Yaozu looked at each other and communicated with their eyes. ‘These two employees are quite attentive.’

Xiao Lingyu shook her head at Li Xiaomei and said, “We’re just looking around. We don’t want to disturb you. You can go back to do your work.”

This was her chance to shine, so Li Xiaomei was a little indignant from being chased away. She glanced at Zhou Xiaolu beside her and said, “How about I show the two of you around? She doesn’t know anything. Xiaolu, you should go and work.”

Zhou Xiaolu smiled and said nothing. She turned and busied herself with her work.

As expected, only a dog that couldn’t bark would bite.

Li Xiaomei usually had a good relationship with Zhou Xiaolu. However, when it came to her own interests, she would stab others in the back.

Zhang Li could be arrogant, but she wore her feelings on her sleeves. She was harmless. However, Li Xiaomei was cunning. She would push you when you were not looking.

Even though they were just a normal supermarket, they didn’t need such a cunning employee. She would think of taking advantage of others without showing any emotion. If someone gave her a certain benefit, she would immediately sell out the supermarket to others.

Xiao Lingyu knew she couldn’t keep this person around.

However, Xiao Lingyu would not be stupid enough to fire this person on the spot.

She would just instruct the store manager and find an opportunity to dismiss this person.

In her previous life, she had fought hard in the workplace. She would never look down on any small character.

Many times, the failure of a mission came from a small character, such as the cleaning lady.

The cleaning lady seemed to be doing the dirtiest and most tiring job. However, they were also the people who heard the most secrets.

This was because many people didn’t care about the cleaning lady. They looked down on them and would speak without a filter around them.

When Xiao Lingyu returned to the workplace in her previous life, she started as a cleaning lady. At that time, she heard the secrets of many people in the company. When she was promoted, these secrets became her secret weapon. Xiao Lingyu was not above using them when she was threatened. Of course, she would never break the law. Back then, the comment others had for Xiao Lingyu was, a woman who was hard on others but hardest on herself.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and asked, “Miss, what is there to show us? I only see freshly painted walls and shelves.”

Li Xiaomei was treating them like this because she had guessed their identities. She was a clever woman. If her mind wasn’t that sinister, she could be trained. Xiao Lingyu wanted her employees to be upright and moral.

Xiao Lingyu politely rejected Li Xiaomei’s invitation.

If they were really smart people, they would know how to back off. Zhou Xiaolu was the best example. When she saw Li Xiaomei cut in, she quietly went back to her work.

Li Xiaomei immediately smiled and said, “Speaking of which, the renovation of this supermarket is really not bad. It’s bright and comfortable to look at. I really don’t know where our boss found the renovation company. He really has a good eye!” Li Xiaomei flattered the boss.

Xiao Lingyu looked around and nodded in agreement. “Yes, this renovation is indeed not bad. However, since the boss has paid the renovation company, they should do their best, right?”

Xiao Lingyu didn’t take the flattery. She attributed everything to the renovation company. However, that was the truth too. Xiao Lingyu had spent a lot of money on the renovation, so of course, it had to be the best.

Li Xiaomei’s smile froze. She did not know how to respond.

She had originally wanted to curry favor with the boss, but the woman kept deflecting her praises. Li Xiaomei was getting annoyed. In her mind, the man was the real boss. He had asked about the vegetables, which was the core of their business.

Also, Li Xiaomei didn’t think a woman could be the boss. Plus, the woman looked so slutty. She was probably the boss’ secretary. So, Li Xiaomei was angry that the woman kept shutting her down. However, even if the slut was just a secretary, she was someone Li Xiaomei couldn’t afford to offend.

Li Xiaomei nodded with a stiff expression and said, “Yes. The renovation company did a good job. I feel like the person who found the company should get the highest credit!”

Zeng Yaozu and even Zhou Xiaolu’s mouths twitched. The flattery was getting too obvious!

Zhang Li looked at Li Xiaomei in confusion. She frowned and asked with confusion, “Xiaomei, why do you keep praising the renovation? They are only here to take a quick look.”

Everyone, “…” Ignorance is bliss!

Li Xiaomei’s face turned black, and she cursed in her heart, ‘This idiot! This is probably the supermarket owner. Instead of currying favor with him, she’s working there blindly. She’ll be a good-for-nothing for the rest of her life!’

Li Xiaomei restrained her emotions and said with a smile, “Like what Xiaolu said, even if our shop hasn’t opened yet, the customers are still customers. Of course, we need to treat them well!”

Xiao Lingyu didn’t want to be entangled with these girls anymore. She didn’t mean to look down on them, but she felt that it was necessary.

Xiao Lingyu turned to Zeng Yaozu and said, “We’ve seen enough. Let’s go!”

Zeng Yaozu nodded.

Li Xiaomei was a little dumbfounded.

In her mind, the woman was the secretary and the man was the boss. But based on the last interaction, it was the other way around.

After Xiao Lingyu and Zeng Yaozu left, Zhou Xiaomei looked at Li Xiaomei, who was still a little stunned. She curled her lips and said to Zhang Li with a smile, “Xiao Li, you still haven’t figured it out?”

Zhang Li looked at her colleague with confusion. “Figured what out? Xiaolu, your words don’t make any sense.”

Zhou Xiaolu said with a smile, “Weren’t we talking about Zeng Family’s vegetable shop earlier? My friend said that one time, a woman came to slander the shop’s reputation. She said the organic vegetables are poisonous. Later, the boss of Green Fresh came and solved everything with a few words.

“My friend was there at the time. When the boss appeared, many people gasped in surprise.”

“Why?” Zhang Li was intrigued.

Li Xiaomei also pricked up her ears to listen.

Zhou Xiaolu said with a smile, “Because the boss was too beautiful. Everyone present was shocked!”

“What?” Zhang Li asked, confused, “Is there really a man who can shock people with his beautiful appearance?”

When Li Xiaomei heard this, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Zhou Xiaolu said with a smile, “Silly woman. Who told you that the Boss is a man? She is a woman and a very beautiful woman at that! Just like that woman just now!”

Zhang Li, “…”

Li Xiaomei, “…”

When Zhou Xiaolu saw Li Xiaomei’s expression change, she suddenly felt very happy.
