Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife-Chapter 477: If You Don’t Like Someone, Don’t Give Them Hope

Chapter 477: Chapter 477: If You Don’t Like Someone, Don’t Give Them Hope

The bustling atmosphere persisted until evening, with everyone even having their lunch from the steamed buns sent over by Qin’s Buns Shop inside the mall.

Despite being busy all day, nobody complained of fatigue or hardship.

Especially the young girls, their eyes were shining.

Lin Chuxia could understand somewhat; to them, today’s work probably felt like opening a mystery box.

When evening came and it was time to finish work, Lin Chuxia told the staff to leave, but she and Wang Tianxue stayed behind.

The grand opening was the day after tomorrow; they had to get the goods sorted out in these two days.

They had sorted some of them today, and next, they had to price the goods.

This was a task others couldn’t do.

Qin Jianjun also didn’t leave, assisting Lin Chuxia and Wang Tianxue.

Before long, Qin Yang came over as well.

Lin Chuxia was in a hurry at this moment, and one more person was just what was needed.

"Sister Tianxue, let’s split into teams. You and Jianjun handle that side; give me the list below, and I will go to the other side with Qin Yang."

She took a list, grabbed Qin Yang, and dashed to the other side.

Wang Tianxue had seen Qin Yang before and knew they had a close relationship, but she hadn’t realized just how clingy Qin Yang was. She couldn’t help but think of Yang Rui.

How foolish she had been. When she was pregnant, Yang Rui often used work and overtime as an excuse, frequently coming home in the middle of the night.

Those who truly care about you will always find time to be with you no matter how busy they are.

Those who don’t care, they’re the ones who feel spending time on you is a waste and not worth it.

Qin Yang was somewhat amazed at the multitude of clothes in the store, "You guys have a lot of stock this time."

"Thanks to Sister Tianxue’s aunt, half of these were obtained on credit, but once the mall opens the day after tomorrow, we can quickly repay the debt."

Lin Chuxia finished speaking and confidently flashed him a smile.

Qin Yang raised his hand to smooth her hair, "What can I help you with? I can’t attend the mall’s opening ceremony the day after tomorrow since it’s not the weekend."

"It’s fine if you can’t come. Sister Tianxue will be hosting, and I’ll just be supporting," although she invested a lot in the mall, she had no plans to manage it herself — if she did, she wouldn’t have given Wang Tianxue a fifty percent share.

She had too many things to handle and couldn’t be tied down by a mall.

Firstly, Wang Tianxue could devote herself completely, and secondly, she had experience in managing a mall.

Plus, with memories from her previous life, Lin Chuxia was clear on her abilities and fully trusted her.

"Take this label, stick it over there, I will write and you will stick."

Lin Chuxia handed a label to Qin Yang, directing him.

Qin Yang took it and stuck it where she pointed.

Not all the lights in the mall were turned on, just enough of them to light up their work area.

Only two windows were open to help with ventilation, but even so, the mall still smelled heavily of merchandise.

Among these scents, Qin Yang could distinctly smell the fragrance of the petite woman, watching her serious and focused expression, he was almost unable to take his eyes off her.

She always said his work was great, but Qin Yang saw in her the spirit of tenacity and indomitable will.

Each of these businesses she was engaged in related to people’s livelihood, and which one wasn’t important?

Outside, the sky had dimmed and the large doors of the mall opened again as Gao Lele came in with a bag of food.

"Mr. Lin, Sister Juan asked me to bring some food for you."

Lin Chuxia handed the freshly written label to Qin Yang and sighed, "Sister Juan really understands me. I am indeed hungry after being busy for so long."

Waving at Wang Tianxue, Qin Jianjun came over to have something to eat first.

"Is the store still busy right now?"

Lin Chuxia was eating while asking Gao Lele.

Jia Liang stayed in Rong City. Now, all affairs of Qin’s Restaurant were being managed by Qin Juan.

Based on her understanding of her elder sister, if the store wasn’t too busy, her sister would have personally come over to deliver food to them.

A trace of guilt flashed through Gao Lele’s eyes, "It’s okay, there are fewer people now."

She volunteered to help because she saw Qin Juan was going to deliver food to the people at the mall.

Lin Chuxia knew there were no issues at the store, so she didn’t ask further and focused on eating.

The young men ate quickly, Qin Jianjun had a few buns and drank some water, wiped his mouth, and went back to work.

Gao Lele had been sitting by the side, looking around this way and that, and when she saw Qin Jianjun writing something over there, she followed.

Qin Jianjun thought it was Wang Tianxue who had come. He had already roughly reviewed the work. He was about to have Wang Tianxue look over the prices he had written down when he saw it was Gao Lele. So, he dropped his gaze and continued to look at the thing in his hand.

Gao Lele felt a prick in her heart at his reaction and took the initiative to speak, "Jianjun, are you going back to work at the Bun Shop later on?"

These days, Qin Jianjun had been transferred to the mall side. Although he still occasionally went to the Bun Shop, when work got busy, they would not even exchange a word before she saw him leave again.

Qin Jianjun already knew about Gao Lele’s feelings. He remembered what his aunt had said.

If you don’t like someone, you shouldn’t give them hope.

He nodded, "I’ll be working here from now on and won’t go back to the Bun Shop."

Gao Lele bit her lip, "Then could you talk to the boss and let me work here at the mall as well?"

"I can’t make that decision. You can talk to the store manager when she comes back."

Qin Jianjun’s businesslike attitude finally made Gao Lele’s eyes redden.

"Jianjun, I didn’t go to the blind date my mother set up for me last weekend, I..."

"Lele, I see they’ve finished eating over there, and I have work to do, so I can’t chat with you."

Qin Jianjun cut her off and went straight to find Wang Tianxue with the order list.

Gao Lele held back her tears, standing helplessly in place. Her small, lost appearance caught Lin Chuxia’s eye, who clicked her tongue twice and spoke in a lower voice to the man beside her.

"The men of your Qin Family are really cold. This girl has given her all, only to be let down."

Qin Yang glanced over in the direction she was looking, handed her the water glass, "Being enthusiastic toward a woman you don’t like is called being a philanderer and a rogue."

Lin Chuxia: "..."

Qin Yang’s summary was indeed piercing.

...

The next evening, the goods were finally sorted out, and Houzi had restocked his goods as well.

Su Wensong originally planned to have someone from security follow them, as they were responsible for safety, but when Qin Wu heard about it, he took on the task ahead of others.

That kid also knew how to make excuses for himself. Rong City was a new market after all, and Hou Xiaobao was weak in market development. His presence there would be a good opportunity to make the most of that market.

This rationale couldn’t really be refused by anyone, and so Su Wensong immediately arranged for Qin Wu and Hou Xiaobao to follow Master Xu’s vehicle down south.

...

The day of the opening was blessed with good weather, and although it wasn’t a weekend, their mall was situated right in the center of Yan City, adjacent to the Department Store and People’s Mall.

Since the beginning of the mall’s renovation, many people had been paying attention.

In the previous few days, advertisements had been released for a 10% discount on the opening day.

Therefore, on this day, quite a few people specifically came to join in on the excitement.
