Chapter 73 – Qi Yun: This is so desperate!

“Thank you, boss!”

Lin Lin took the money from Qi Yun’s hand and smiled sweetly. It was probably the sweetest smile she had ever had in her life.

When else could a worker smile when receiving money?

She walked to Xiao Yue, who looked a little dazed, and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you surprised?”

“I… I just think it’s too much.”

Xiao Yue scratched her face.

Her salary was quite high in this era, but receiving a 3,000 yuan bonus all at once was almost equivalent to another month’s salary.

To be honest, Xiao Yue was shocked.

“Think about it. Qingxue worries the most in our shop, but you are the busiest. It’s only right that you receive a bigger bonus!”

Lin Lin persuaded Xiao Yue. “Isn’t it great to have such a generous boss? I want to work under Qi Yun forever!” Lin Lin felt extremely proud in her heart.

She had made the right decision by leaving the previous shop!

The working environment was good, and there was also so much money!

The income from this month alone could surpass the previous three months! She was delighted.

Lin Lin shouted in her heart, “I, Linlin, am willing to be by Boss Qi’s side through thick and thin!”

“Boss, I don’t want the money,” Lian Qingxue said with some resistance.

“You are the hardest working one in the shop. If you don’t take it, they won’t feel comfortable,” Qi Yun persuaded.

Indeed, when Lian Qingxue heard this, she hesitated for a while and put the money away.

Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

Why did he distribute the money publicly and give it to everyone?

Besides the fact that these employees had worked hard, it was also because he was afraid that Lian Qingxue wouldn’t accept it.

If Lian Qingxue accepted, wouldn’t the system take the money back?

Sure enough, when Lian Qingxue heard that she wouldn’t take it and it could also affect Xiao Yue and the others, she couldn’t say anything to refuse.

“Moreover, we are giving out money now for the future!” Qi Yun continued.

“The future?”

“Aren’t we going to open more branch stores? We should hire more people. These employees are experienced and will be responsible for training new employees. It may be more tiring than now, so we should give them extra compensation in advance!” Lian Qingxue nodded.

Since Qi Yun mentioned expansion plans, she had also thought about it. She had accepted it as well.

After all, Snow Tea was her hard work. If it could develop well, she would naturally be willing.

She was just more cautious than Qi Yun.

Hearing Qi Yun’s words, she ultimately agreed to give out money.

“Qingxue, why did you bring me here?”

Xiao Yue asked, feeling exhausted, as she was finally given half a day off from the shop.

Lian Qingxue had dragged her out. The two of them were walking in the largest shopping mall in Spring City.

Xiao Yue yawned, looking like she hadn’t fully woken up yet, while Lian Qingxue was looking around carefully, observing the surrounding shops.

“I want to buy a gift for Qi Yun,” Lian Qingxue said.

“Huh? Is it Qi Yun’s birthday?” Xiao Yue suddenly woke up.

“No, he just gave out money, right? It is our first income from the shop, so it’s meaningful. I want to use it to buy him something…”

Xiao Yue rolled her eyes and said, “Lian Qingxue, are you saying that you want to spend 5,000 yuan to buy a gift for Qi Yun?”

Lian Qingxue nodded. “Yeah, that’s right. If it’s not enough, I can add more.”

Xiao Yue sighed, “I’m amazed by the two of you. One wants to give all the money to you, and the other wants to spend all her money on gifts for each other! Perfect match!”

Lian Qingxue smiled sheepishly, “Xiao Yue, you’ll understand when you’re in a relationship. It’s a feeling of wanting to give everything to the other person…”

Xiao Yue replied, “I don’t understand, and I don’t want to understand! Isn’t it great to have money to buy food for yourself?”

However, Lian Qingxue and Xiao Yue soon encountered a problem.

“What can we buy with 5,000 yuan?”

For these two, spending 5,000 yuan at once was a new experience. They would even feel reluctant to spend 50 yuan.

The two novices quickly became overwhelmed while shopping.

They stood in the center of the mall, feeling dazed. They felt like there were all sorts of things in the shop they had just left, but there wasn’t a suitable one.

Lian Qingxue was also quite conflicted now.

In this era, 5,000 yuan was not a small amount but also embarrassing.

Luxury goods were definitely out of their reach, and ordinary items wouldn’t even cost 5,000 yuan.

Lian Qingxue was picky and wanted to buy something that Qi Yun would like, something with some sentimental value. However, she realized that the options were very limited.

“Sigh! Let’s go there and take a look!”

Xiao Yue suddenly tugged at Lian Qingxue’s sleeve and pointed to a store with many customers.

“So… this is the gift you bought for me?”

Qi Yun looked at the box in her hand, unsure of what expression to make.

Touched?

Definitely touched, as the silly girl didn’t have a total of 200 yuan. Yet she bought a 5,000 yuan phone for him! She was truly foolish.

But besides feeling touched, Qi Yun couldn’t help but scratch his head.

Lian Qingxue bought a Nokia mobile!

Nokia!

Nokia was still the leader in domestic and even global mobile phones in this era! It had unlimited glory. But Apple iPhone was officially released last year, and Nokia would go bankrupt in a few years.

And Lian Qingxue bought a high-end model…

“Don’t you like it?” Lian Qingxue looked at Qi Yun with a puzzled expression. She felt a little nervous.

“I didn’t know what to buy, but I heard that many people like Nokia, so I bought one for you…”

She lowered her head. “I thought that if you have a phone, you can hold it daily and think of me…” As Lian Qingxue spoke, she seemed a little aggrieved.

She put a lot of thought into it!

Seeing Lian Qingxue’s aggrieved appearance, Qi Yun immediately became anxious.

“I like it! I really like it!”

He hugged Lian Qingxue.

“Let me tell you, as long as this phone doesn’t break. I will use it forever without changing!”

Lian Qingxue nodded in his embrace.

Qi Yun looked at the old, thick, black phone and thought deeply.

He heard that Nokia had excellent quality and wouldn’t break even if you smashed walnuts with it.

So, will he be able to use a smartphone in his lifetime? It’s truly despair!

……

As the business of the milk tea shop improved day by day, the footsteps of the college entrance examination drew closer.

Finally, the time came to the last week before the college entrance examination, the final moments for Qi Yun and the others at Yizhong.

During evening self-study, Qi Yun walked up to the podium as usual.
