Chapter 823: Not destined to be a boss

"Your boss is a really nice person. She lets the employees go home first while she stays in the store to continue working. No wonder the employees like such a boss."

Zhao Yunhuan, who was washing things well, heard Shen Siqi speak. She had to stop and turned towards Shen Siqi: "Don't tease me. I know it was wrong of me to lie to you before. Can I apologize to you?"

"Huh, how many times have you lied to me? If your employee hadn't suddenly appeared, would I have been kept in the dark forever?"

"How could that be? I will definitely find a suitable opportunity to tell you later."

"Really? Why don't I believe it?"

"I swear! I really didn't mean to lie to you. It was the first time we dealt with each other, so I didn't feel the need to explain. Who would have thought that we would have the opportunity to meet again in the future? Then I can't apologize to you and say that I lied to you after seeing you, right? To show my sincerity, these takeaways are my treat, okay?"

"That won't work. You cheated me, not my friends. How can you let them eat something that they got for free?"

"Then next time you come to the store to buy something, can I treat you to a meal alone?"

"That's more like it. By the way, why did you stay here alone to wash these things? It would be faster if you were with your employees."

"It's okay. They've been tired all day. As the boss, I can at least be lazy, but they've been working all day. There's nothing I can ask them to help with, so I'll just let them go home and rest."

"What a good boss! No wonder you praise yourself so much. Even an outsider like me thinks you are a good boss."

"Isn't this a thing of the past? Why are you still using this to disqualify me?"

"I'm not making fun of you, I'm just telling you the truth."

Now that Shen Siqi had gotten a little more familiar with Zhao Yunhuan, he stopped playing with his phone. He thought it would be boring for Zhao Yunhuan to wash things alone so he planned to chat with her for a while to pass the time. He could also wait here for Cheng Yunchuan to finish his work.

"Why did you think of opening a beverage store here? The rent here is so expensive, aren't you afraid of losing money?"

"I think there are so many people here, they are all office workers who need coffee. I also know a lot about coffee, so I decided to open a store here. At first, I thought the rent was quite high, but it has its reasons, right? You see, I haven't closed down my store yet, so I'm not losing money."

"That's true. Not only did you not close down, you also hired several employees to work in the store. Your coffee tastes good and you can tell that you use good raw materials."

"That's why we dare to sell at such a high price. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the confidence and repeat customers, right?"

"Although you look young, you know a lot about business, don't you?"

"There is no such thing as business acumen. I am just running these small businesses with integrity. Besides, I am not young anymore."

"It's good to be your own boss. It's not like us working for others. No matter how old you are, you can't be older than me."

Shen Siqi knew that asking someone's age was too offensive, and since he and Zhao Yunhuan weren't that close yet, he didn't insist on asking further.

"I see that the position on your work badge is not low. You must be a capable person to be able to sit in that position at your age. Besides, no one in that position can control you except the big boss, right?"

"You seem to understand this quite well. Although there aren't many people who can manage me, I am still an employee after all. If the boss needs me, isn't it just a matter of asking?"

"That's true. If that's the case, then you should work hard and strive to become your own boss."

"I wouldn't dare to do that. The boss is my good brother and my character is not that bad. Besides, he and I worked hard together to build this company. It would be easier for me if he were the boss. If I were the boss, I wouldn't be able to handle such a high-intensity workload. I'm pretty good in my current state and I'm quite satisfied with it."

"That's right. Being a boss isn't as good as you think. It's just that you haven't been one before so you don't understand it, so you want to be one."

"Maybe, but from what you said, it seems that you have a lot of experience and understanding?"

"Not a lot, but there are a few. Even though my business is not big, I have a headache every day dealing with the store's affairs. In order to retain customers, I have to constantly develop new drinks and desserts, and launch new products every season, plus organize festivals and other events."

"Just hearing you say that gives me a headache. It seems like I'm not destined to be a boss. I'm already very content with my current life."

"I actually envy you. You are not the boss and do not need to bear too much pressure, and you are not an employee without a say. You should just enjoy your life."

"After you said that, I thought about it carefully and found that it is true. Outsiders can see things more clearly."

While Zhao Yunhuan was chatting with Shen Siqi, she quickly cleaned up everything. When Shen Siqi saw this, he stood up from his seat consciously.

"Now that these things are washed, you should be closing up, right? I'll be leaving first."

"Wait, is your friend here already?"

Shen Siqi did not rush to answer Zhao Yunhuan's question. He took out his mobile phone to confirm whether Cheng Yunchuan had sent him any messages during this period. There was no movement on the phone so it was obvious that there was no message. This meant that Cheng Yunchuan was still working overtime in the company and had not finished his work yet.

"Not yet. If I don't see him message me, it will probably take a while. It will be the same if I go out and wait for him."

"Then you should stay in the store. I won't be off work so soon."

"Haven't you cleaned the tools? Why don't you go back and rest after get off work?"

"Since your friends haven't come yet, I might as well wait here with you. It's too silly to wait outside with so many things in your hands. You'd better stay in the store. I can also make some preparations for tomorrow's business."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Let's make some bread dough. Let's prepare the flour and wait for it to rise and ferment. Or, let's whip up some butter for tomorrow. There are a lot of chores to do in a beverage store. Just do whatever you think of. If I prepare in advance, I won't have to rush when I go to work tomorrow morning."

"That's true. Your store is doing so well right now. If you only do it during work tomorrow, you're going to miss out on a lot of customers."

"Yes, in order to make everyone feel more relaxed, I have no choice but to work harder myself."

"Can I go in and take a look? I'm quite interested in your dessert making and cooking. It feels very relaxing and de-stressing just watching."

"Sure, come in yourself."

After hearing Zhao Yunhuan's agreement, Shen Siqi went straight to the operating table and watched Zhao Yunhuan's work up close.

The two continued chatting in the store like they were friends who hadn't seen each other for years. No one would believe that they had only met for the third time. When Zhao Yunhuan was halfway through kneading the dough in her hand, Shen Siqi's cell phone in his pocket rang.

"I guess it's my friend. Let me take a look."

When Shen Siqi took out his cell phone, he found that the caller ID showed that it was indeed Cheng Yunchuan's number.
