Chapter 250

Looking through the album, Bai Qin did see the chat screenshots, but she wasn’t happy about it.

Looking at Xu Yina, Bai Qin said, “Sister Yina, screenshots cannot be used as evidence in sentencing because they can be easily photoshopped. Only real chat logs can be used as evidence, understand?”

“I really don’t understand this.”

Speechless.

“Never mind, you go ahead and get busy.”

“Shall I treat you to spicy hot pot when we get home tonight?”

“I won’t eat it, I’m feeling hot and bothered lately.”

“How about I treat you to ice cream?”

Looking at Xu Yina, who seemed very sincere, Bai Qin suddenly burst out laughing.

After laughing, Bai Qin said, “Sister Yina, I’m not angry with you, so you don’t need to treat me to this or that.”

“Didn’t I destroy your evidence?”

“I’ve only heard that WeChat chat logs can now be used as evidence, but that’s not necessarily true!”

“I don’t know either, but I just feel like I did something wrong.”

“Half right, half wrong, because you resolved the conflict between me and Lao Qian.”

“You’re so petite, I’m afraid he’ll punch you and pin you to the ceiling.”

Because of Xu Yina’s words, Bai Qin even looked up at the ceiling.

After looking at it, Bai Qin said, “You are the foreman, so you can walk around freely. Therefore, you are responsible for keeping an eye on Lao Qian.”

“But I can’t stay in the back kitchen forever.”

“Going there occasionally is fine.”

“Of course, that’s no problem.”

At this moment, Bai Qin opened the drawer, took out a lollipop, and handed it to Xu Yina.

“I bought these a few days ago, and there are two left. I’ll give you one.”

After receiving it, Xu Yina tore off the wrapper and stuffed it directly into her mouth.

Looking at Bai Qin, Xu Yina suddenly spat out the lollipop and licked it with the tip of her tongue.

Seeing Bai Qin’s somewhat embarrassed expression, Xu Yina raised her eyebrows and said, “These are techniques you can use when you get a boyfriend!”

“How disgusting! It seems that Sister Ina has done this kind of thing before!”

“Many women have done it, and you will be no exception in the future.”

“I would never do that.”

“Then I’ll ask you that question after you get married.”

“That’s men’s piss. Don’t you feel disgusted when you lick it, Sister Ina?”

“This is part of love.”

“Sister Yina, don’t try to teach me this kind of illogical reasoning.”

“This is not a principle, this is the truth.”

After saying that, Xu Yina licked the lollipop with the tip of her tongue before walking away with a smile.

After Xu Yina left, Bai Qin took out the last lollipop.

After tearing off the wrapper, Bai Qin licked the lollipop with the tip of her tongue.

After licking it, Bai Qin, looking disgusted, muttered, “I would never lick my brother-in-law’s.”

A little after 12 o’clock, Han An walked into the store.

After greeting Bai Qin, Han An went straight to the back kitchen.

Walking into the kitchen, Han An saw Lao Qian busy at work and said, “Lao Qian, come out for a moment.”

“Wait a minute! We’re busy right now!”

“Then I’ll wait for you in the lounge.”

“Okay!”

Shortly after Han An entered the lounge, Xu Yina also went in.

Han An rarely comes over at noon, and since he had just gone to the back kitchen, Xu Yina naturally knew that Han An’s visit this time must be related to Lao Qian.

Seeing that Han An had already lit a cigarette, Xu Yina asked, “Are you settling in well at the hotel?”

“It’s alright, it’s just that the neighbors are too noisy.”

“Then why don’t you just talk to the person living next door?”

“The key is that every night has a different guest.”

“And then there are very few?”

“Yeah,” Han An said, “I guess it’s because there’s a high school nearby, so young couples in love especially like to book rooms at hotels. You know how bad the soundproofing is in hotels, so as soon as we get down to business, I feel like the girls are screaming in my ear.”

“Then you’ve made a profit, boss?”

“It severely affects my sleep, how did I gain anything?”

“That’s true,” Xu Yina asked after a pause, “Boss, you came to the store to talk to Lao Qian about what happened this morning, right?”

“Did Xiaoqin tell you that?”

“Um.”

Upon hearing Xu Yina’s words, Han An fell silent.

After a half-minute silence, Han An took a deep drag on his cigarette and said, “I plan to talk to Lao Qian about terminating the employment contract.”

“You’ll have to pay compensation, right?”

“I don’t care about those few thousand dollars, what I care about is whether I can find a head chef with the same skills as Lao Qian.”

Surely there must be some, right?

“It all depends on whether I can find someone. Anyway, after talking to Xiaoqin on the phone this morning, I immediately posted on the job website. Someone called me while I was having lunch, but it was a complete newbie, so I politely declined. Regardless of whether we can find a head chef, I plan to have Lao Qian leave after today’s work. Although I care a lot about Han Ji’s business, I can’t allow a man like Lao Qian, who flirted with my sister-in-law, to stay in the shop. Actually, it wasn’t flirting at all; it was a blatant threat. If I don’t date him, Han Ji will go bankrupt. Don’t you think Lao Qian’s words are incredibly vicious?”

“It seems I wasn’t wrong about him.”

“What?”

“I thought you, boss, would actually keep your old money for the sake of business.”

“I originally planned to fire Lao Qian after we hired a head chef, but I felt that we couldn’t keep Lao Qian around, so I decided to fire him today.”

“I’ll go tell Xiaoqin the good news.”

“What kind of good news is this?”

“This is good news for Xiaoqin, who has a crush on you.”

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“She does have a crush on you, do I really need to tell you that?”

“Some things are better left unsaid; there’s no need to keep them in your heart.”

“no problem.”

After laughing out loud, Xu Yina then walked out of the lounge.

When they reached the cashier, Xu Yina told Bai Qin about Han An’s plan.

Upon hearing this, Baiqin was naturally delighted.

About ten minutes later, Old Qian, his face greasy, walked into the lounge.

Looking at Han An, Lao Qian asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Xiaoqin told me what happened this morning.”

“I was just joking with her,” Old Qian laughed. “This girl actually complained to you directly.”

“Old Qian, I’ve always admired your work ethic, but…”

Before Han An could finish speaking, Lao Qian interrupted, “I’ve heard your polite words before, so I know you’re planning to fire me, aren’t you?”

Han An didn’t speak, he just nodded.

“Damn it,” Old Qian cursed, “Hey Boss Han, aren’t you making a mountain out of a molehill? I’ve worked at your shop for almost two years, have I made any mistakes during that time? Let me tell you, I had a few drinks this morning, that’s why I said those things to Xiaoqin. We’re both men, you should know that people tend to talk nonsense when they’re drunk.”

“I will pay you an extra month’s salary.”

Upon hearing Han An’s words, Old Qian remained silent, but his expression turned somewhat ferocious.

Noticing Lao Qian’s slightly clenched fist, Han An became somewhat wary.

Old Qian is a big guy, but if it really comes down to a fight, Han An isn’t afraid of him.
