2743 Love Comes Like The Southern Breeze (261)

“You’re right.” Feng Yunan couldn’t help but look at her with admiration. He didn’t expect her to know so much at such a young age.

Qiao Ruoxi took a tour around the workshop and loved everything inside. Perhaps only a craftsman would love the tools of a craftsman.

“Mr. Feng, why did you suddenly bring me here today? Just to show me around?”

She stopped beside the sand wheel and looked back at him. From Feng Yunan’s perspective, she was like a fresh color in an old picture, but it was not out of place. It was as if she could blend well into the scene.

“If you want to participate in the competition, you will have to use the workshop. You can use everything here.” Feng Yunan stuck one hand into his pocket and gestured with the other. “But you need to clean this place yourself.”

Was Qiao Ruoxi hallucinating?

Feng Yunan had brought her here so that he could provide her with the workshop?

After figuring out the man’s purpose, Qiao Ruoxi was overjoyed. She didn’t know how to thank him anymore. She touched the workbench happily and nodded at him. “Thank you, thank you. I will definitely clean this place up and not mess it up.”

“You can come after work.”

“Okay.”

After visiting the craft workshop, Qiao Ruoxi left with Feng Yunan. She returned to the flagship store to work while Feng Yunan returned to the Fengtian Group.

Qiao Ruoxi returned to the flagship store and changed into the store manager’s uniform. She looked professional and energetic.

As the store manager, she had to hold a morning meeting for all the staff in the flagship store every morning. When she called out names, she realized that there was one person missing.

“Is Xiao Lu on leave?”

Qiao Ruoxi had not seen Xiao Lu’s name in the application form.

The employees looked at each other. At this moment, Xiao Lu arrived late. She was already late, but she did not feel that she was in the wrong. She swayed her high heels and directly stood in the line without even saying goodbye.

Qiao Ruoxi raised her hand to look at the time on her watch. She stared at Xiao Lu and said, “Xiao Lu, today is my first morning meeting. You’re late. Ten minutes. Full service deduction for this month.”

“What right do you have to do that? Do you think you can just do that? I’m late because I was stuck in traffic!”

Xiao Lu tried her best to argue with Qiao Ruoxi. She thought that since Bao Juhua had resigned, she should be the manager.

But now, Qiao Ruoxi had used some underhanded means to become the manager. She was not convinced.

“No matter what the reason is, you should at least give me a call beforehand. But you didn’t even call me. Now that you’ve missed the exam, you should be responsible for your own actions.”

Qiao Ruoxi told her seriously.

“Ha! Back when Miss Bao was working, she wouldn’t even say anything when we were late. Why do you have to deduct our bonuses? Aren’t you going too far? Just because you’re newly promoted, you’re playing tricks on us, aren’t you?”

Xiao Lu started to argue. The other employees wanted to persuade her to stop talking, but her voice was louder.

Qiao Ruoxi knew that many people would not accept her sudden promotion from an employee who had only worked for a short period of time to a manager. However, this was how work was. The capable would go up, the mediocre would go down. Since she had become a manager, she had to carry out her duties.

Qiao Ruoxi looked at Xiao Lu coldly and said sternly, “This is a rule from the higher-ups. If you are not convinced, you can pack up and leave now!”

“Don’t scare me with that! What right do you have to fire me? Tell me, is she doing this on purpose?”

Xiao Lu was implying that she was a direct employee of Di Ruiling Jewelry. Even if Qiao Ruoxi wanted to fire her, she would have to get a notice from the higher-ups.

“Because I’m the manager, I have the right to fire you.”

Qiao Ruoxi looked at everyone calmly and explained, “As the store manager, it’s my duty to maintain the basic unity of a group. If someone deliberately stirs up trouble, I will have to ask her to leave. Xiao Lu, you can leave now!”

Xiao Lu did not expect that she would not show her any respect and fire her in front of everyone. This made her feel ashamed and angry. “Qiao Ruoxi! Don’t think that you are so great just because you are the manager! In terms of qualifications and ability, what qualifications do you have to be the manager? Who do you think you are? If you did not rely on currying favor with the president to get to where you are today, would you still be here today?”

“It’s not up to you to decide whether I’m capable or not! It’s just that I’m already the store manager now and you have to obey the company’s management. If you continue to cause trouble here, I can only call security.”

Qiao Ruoxi did not budge and was about to call the security guards over. Xiao Lu saw that she was serious and shouted fiercely, “Fine! I’ll leave myself! Don’t be happy too early! The flagship store will be ruined by you sooner or later!”

Xiao Lu put on a look of righteous indignation and turned to the others. “You all saw it! I’m a lesson for all of you! There won’t be a good ending if you fight with such people!”

Xiao Lu cursed as she left the flagship store. Qiao Ruoxi did not take her words to heart. Instead, she turned back to the others and said, “Okay, the morning meeting is over. I will replace the people who are missing from the company’s training department. Everyone, go do your work!”

Basically, no one dared to say anything. Everyone returned to their jobs and began a new day of work.

While Qiao Ruoxi was in charge of the flagship store, a pair of narrow and devilish eyes was watching her performance from inside the car parked outside the flagship store.

Mu Yunli rested a hand on the window and rubbed his chin with his fingers, admiring the back of the woman who was swaying back and forth in the shop.

He could tell that Qiao Ruoxi had the potential to become a strong woman. From her behavior, she had already shown her management skills.

She was strict and serious. She abided by the rules and was neither servile nor overbearing. If such a woman was given the right platform, she would definitely display extraordinary charm.

During lunch break, Qiao Ruoxi received a call. She took her phone out and saw the name. She hesitated for a moment, not knowing if she should answer it.

It was Mu Yunli!

She did not know why he was looking for her, but she still felt very awkward when she thought about what had happened at the party last time. After hesitating for a while, she finally picked up the phone. “Hello? Mr. Mu.”

Her clear voice was like a yellow oriole leaving the valley. When Mu Yunli heard Qiao Ruoxi’s voice, he felt like he was bathing in the spring breeze. “Miss, are you off work? Let’s have a meal together?”

“Yes, but…”

Before Qiao Ruoxi could finish her words, Mu Yunli interrupted her calmly. “Then come out. I’m near your flagship store. If you don’t come, I’ll go in and look for you.”

“No! It’s better if you don’t come to me, Mr. Mu. I only have a short break. I have to go back to work soon.”
