The convenience store where Huo ran worked was not far from the apartment where she lived. It only took her about ten minutes to walk.
Xia Ling ran ran into some familiar people along the way.
There were no rich people living in this old neighborhood. At most, they were aunties selling vegetables and fruit vendors.
"Huo ran, you look pretty good today. You looked like you were sick before. I was going to advise you to see a doctor, " the Aunty said with a smile as she rode her tricycle.
Xia Ling smiled. "I was a little unwell before, but I'm fine now. Thank you for your concern, aunt Zhang. Business is booming today. "
"Okay, okay. "
Xia Ling walked all the way to the convenience store. The lady boss had just opened the door.
The girl's dejection from the past few days and her refreshing spirit today were clearly worlds apart.
The lady boss said, "Huo ran, you weren't feeling well before, right? I saw that you were distracted when you were doing things. Are you feeling better now? " "It just so happens that Xiao Xu asked me to resign yesterday and came to the store today to pick up some things. Our store is short of manpower at the moment. You do more, and I'll give you a raise later. "
"Xiao Xu isn't working anymore? " Xia Ling's eyes moved slightly.
"Yeah, I think she won the lottery? I saw that she went to the mall to buy a lot of things yesterday. I'm afraid she's going home to buy a house, right? I heard that she has enough money for the down payment, " said the lady boss.
Xia Ling: "got it, lady boss. Let me know when you see Xiao Xu coming. After all, we've been together for so long. I'll send her off when she leaves. "
"Sure, I knew you were nostalgic and a good person. This Xiao Xu likes to be lazy when she's in the shop. Let's go then. " The lady boss complimented Xia Ling a few times and passed the key to the shop to Xia Ling. Then, she twisted her waist and went to play Mahjong.
The wages in the store were not high. The lady boss did not care about the business, but she was very strict with the employees. When Xu Qian had money, it was normal for her to want to change jobs.
However, the things that were evil to others were always spat out before she left.

At 7:50 am, Xu Qian arrived at the convenience store.
She asked the lady boss for the warehouse key, and the lady boss Sent Xia Ling a wechat message.
Xia Ling blocked Xu Qian in the warehouse. Xu Qian was carrying a box and quilt in her arms. Just as she was about to leave, she looked up and saw Xia Ling.
There was only a small window in the storeroom behind the convenience store. There were also two beds. If they were on night duty, Xu Qian and huo ran would sleep in the storeroom.
"Ah, Huo ran, are you here to pick up something? What a coincidence. " Xu Qian laughed.
"Yes, to pick up something. " Xia Ling smiled. She did not move a step and continued to stare at Xu Qian.
Although she did not have any past memories, Xia Ling knew clearly that even in the past, she was not a person who was afraid of trouble. She was not even afraid of ghosts, so how could she be afraid of people?
"then you can take it. I have something to do in my hometown, so I'll be leaving first. " Xu Qian carried the box and walked around Xia Ling.
Xu Qian had gotten so many benefits from taking advantage of others. Now, the person she did not dare to see the most was huo ran, so she did not dare to chat with her anymore.
Xia Ling's body swayed, and she stood in front of Xu Qian again.
"You can leave. Xu Qian, have you forgotten that you took the jade pendant from me before "You played for so many days, shouldn't you return it to me "My jade pendant is an old item from the Ming Dynasty, but it is my heirloom. You said that you liked to play for a few days, so I lent you such a valuable jade pendant because we are best friends. "But now that you're leaving, why didn't you mention returning the jade pendant? "
Cold Sweat broke out on Xu Qian's back.
