Chapter 235 Opening Shop and Meeting an Old Classmate

The weekend arrived in the blink of an eye.

Although military training continued on weekends, it was relatively more relaxed.

But something unexpected happened during military training today.

A girl fainted.

Wang Yue carried the girl to the infirmary.

He also called Liu Yitong, Xie Jiban, and Jiang Baiqi along.

The main reason was to give them a chance to slack off.

Upon arriving at the infirmary, the doctor examined the girl and found she had fainted due to low blood sugar.

It was not a serious matter.

The girl was a rather good-looking student from Wang Yue's class, named Hu Lingling.

The few of them stood outside the infirmary, watching the lively scene of military training outside.

Xie Jiban exclaimed, "Brother Yue is truly the best. I felt like I was about to faint, but instead, I got a chance to slack off."

Liu Yitong teased, "You don't call him 'the youngest' anymore?"

Xie Jiban chuckled, "We each have our own way of addressing each other. I call him Brother Yue, and he calls me boss. It doesn't conflict."

Jiang Baiqi added, "Unconsciously, a week of military training has passed, and another week and it will be over. I've gotten eight shades darker these days."

Jiang Baiqi's face had visibly darkened because he hadn't applied sunscreen.

However, it was true that most people's faces would darken during military training.

But it wasn't a big problem; fair-skinned people would regain their original complexion after a winter.

After slacking off for a while, when Hu Lingling woke up, Wang Yue led his companions back to their group.

The following days passed quickly.

The two weeks of military training were over before they knew it.

On the day of parting, many students cried. They had become quite familiar with Li Feilong during these two weeks.

This man, who appeared very stern, was actually a good-natured, older brother figure in private.

Li Feilong held Wang Yue in high regard and told him to contact him if he ever decided to join the army in the future.

With Wang Yue's educational background, if he joined the military, he would generally start as an officer, not a common soldier.

However, Wang Yue's aspirations lay elsewhere; he still wanted to earn more money.

The milk tea shop had already been renovated.

The next step was to recruit employees.

Wang Yue recalled his first experience hiring employees, and this time he would conduct interviews at the milk tea shop.

He hadn't told his roommates about opening a milk tea shop. This was what he called "making a fortune quietly."

Wang Yue had two tasks today: the first was to interview employees for the milk tea shop, and the second was to meet An Ran.

Upon arriving at the milk tea shop, Wang Yue looked at the familiar decor and felt a sense of home.

The overall design style was consistent with the two shops in his small town, but this store was larger.

Wang Yue did not increase the salary. His milk tea shop's wages were far above the minimum wage standard, so there were no violations involved.

Most of the applicants today were recent female university graduates.

Of course, an experienced manager was needed for the store manager position.

After Wang Yue sat in the shop for a while, a girl with a sweet appearance walked in.

"Hello, I'm here for an interview. Is the boss here?"

As the girl walked in, she smiled sweetly at Wang Yue and asked.

The girl was wearing a lolita outfit today, exuding a vibrant energy.

"I am the boss."

Wang Yue said with a smile.

"Ah, you're the boss? You look so young."

The girl said, covering her mouth.

Then she looked at the shop's decor and commented, "Boss, you have excellent taste. The milk tea shop is so beautifully decorated."

"Hahaha."

Wang Yue laughed and asked, "Are you wearing a lolita outfit?"

Lolita was very popular ten years later, but wearing it now was considered a somewhat unconventional style. This girl was quite bold.

"I didn't expect you to know about it, boss. Most people would call it strange attire."

The girl's eyes lit up.

She felt as if she had found a kindred spirit.

"I had a friend who used to wear something like this."

Wang Yue said with a smile.

"Could you introduce me to your friend later? It's so hard to find like-minded friends these days."

The girl said with a hint of frustration.

"Perhaps if there's a chance in the future."

Wang Yue nodded.

The girl sat down and said, "Just for that statement, I'm determined to join your company today."

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Xian, and I'm an anime fan~"

"Although I look like a cute sweet girl, I'm actually a person with a spirit of hard work and perseverance~"

"I hope to join your company, contribute to it, and shine brightly."

It had to be said that this young lady was very cute.

Wang Yue asked, "How old are you?"

Zhou Xian thought for a moment and replied, "I just graduated this year, I'm 22."

Wang Yue nodded and said, "You don't look 22, more like 18."

Zhou Xian was amused, "Hahaha, boss, you're so good with words. Actually, you're not wrong, I'm 18 every year."

"You're hired. Come to work tomorrow."

Wang Yue took out a contract from his backpack. "This is the contract. If there are no issues, you can sign it."

Zhou Xian signed her name at the bottom without even looking at the contract.

"Aren't you going to read the contents of the contract?"

Wang Yue asked curiously.

"I trust that the boss won't cheat me, especially since you're so good-looking."

Zhou Xian giggled.

Wang Yue had hired his first employee, a lolita girl who was an anime fan.

After getting the job, Zhou Xian skipped away happily, feeling very pleased.

Wang Yue sat there for several more hours.

Then, most of the applicants had been interviewed.

He had also found a store manager.

It was a middle-aged woman with three years of experience as a store manager, named Li Xiuxiu. Her capabilities were comparable to Liu Qingxia's, and even stronger in some aspects.

After all, this was Beijing, an international metropolis.

With all the staff in place, tomorrow was the official opening day.

Wang Yue planned a grand opening promotion and then called to order several dozen flower baskets. All preparations were complete.

In the afternoon, he closed the shop and returned to the school entrance.

An Ran had said today that she wanted to visit Wang Yue and have him show her around Peking University's campus.

Standing at the school gate, Wang Yue didn't wait long before he saw An Ran arrive.

This girl, who was already beautiful in high school, had made remarkable progress in her aesthetics and makeup after starting university, although she hadn't fully blossomed yet. Wang Yue almost didn't recognize her when he saw her.

"Wang Yue~"

An Ran spotted Wang Yue at a glance and ran towards him happily.

Wang Yue
