After entering the store, Lin Fan was shocked by how busy the store was.
But what he was more shocked by was the product that was being displayed and the customers that were in the store.
The store was completely filled with female customers, both young and old.
In fact, most of the customers in the store were female, so it was strange that a man like him had walked in. There were even some of the female customers that looked at him with a strange look.
However, seeing how handsome he was, they quickly dismissed their suspicions and returned to their shopping.
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a bitter smile when he saw this.
It seemed that being handsome really had its advantages…
The workers of the store naturally recognized Lin Fan as the owner since Yue Lan had already introduced him to them. One of them was about to come forward to ask what he wanted, but he waved his hand to have them go back to helping the customers as he headed to the back.
None of the workers of the store stopped him since they knew who he was here to see and went back to their work.
After walking through the door to the back, Lin Fan found that the back of the store was just as lively as the front of the store.
There were workers running all around bringing out new stock to the front and there were other workers running around trying to find more stock to bring out.
These people completely ignored Lin Fan when they ran past him because first, they were too busy to care and second, because they already knew who he was. He was the owner of this store, so he could go wherever he wanted in this store.
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a faint smile when he saw all this, but he just continued along his way to Yue Lan's office.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he came in, he found that there were stacks of paper all over the office and Yue Lan was completely focused at the desk, filling pieces of paper one after another. She was so focused that when he came in, she didn't even hear the door opening or greet him.
Lin Fan didn't say anything at first, choosing to sit on the side to wait for her to respond, but after twenty minutes of her not noticing a single thing, he couldn't help feeling awkward. In the end, he had no choice but to give a cough to catch her attention.
The first few coughs didn't work, but when he chose to give a loud cough, Yue Lan suddenly looked up at him.
She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Do you need something?"
Lin Fan was a bit scared of the tone that she had when she spoke to him, but he revealed an awkward smile and said, "Well, I had some free time, so I came to see how well the store was doing."
Yue Lan kept looking at him with the same narrowed eyes before giving a sigh and saying, "You can already see how it's doing, or rather how busy it is here. Unless you're willing to start helping out around here, I really don't have time to talk with you."
Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, "Alright, I'll keep it simple. How much money have you made?"
Yue Lan kept looking at him before reaching to the side to take out a piece of paper. She flipped through it to find a certain page before saying, "So far, we've earned around…"
Before she could continue, there was a knock that came from the door.
Yue Lan looked over at the door with a surprised look. She was surprised by this knocking because she had made it clear that she was to be left alone to finish this pile of paperwork.
So unless there was an emergency, there wouldn't be knocking on her door.
After this thought passed through her mind, she quickly asked, "What is it?"
The door opened and one of the workers from before came in to give a bow to Yue Lan. When she stood up again, she said in an awkward voice, "Manager, there's a person outside who's looking for you…"
Yue Lan knitted her brows when she heard this, "I already said that I wasn't to be disturbed. Can you not send them off?"
The staff member's expression became even more difficult as they said, "We've tried, but that person insists on seeing you…They're going as far as causing a commotion in the store and…"
Yue Lan cut her off as she said with a nod, "Alright, I'll go deal with this person. You can go back to work."
The staff member revealed a grateful look as she said, "Thank you manager!"
Then she ran off without any hesitation.
Seeing how she ran off like this, Yue Lan gave a sigh. It seemed like this person really was a pain to deal with…
Yue Lan turned to Lin Fan and asked, "Do you want to stay here or do you want to come with me?"
Lin Fan stood up and said with a smile, "Let's go for a walk." As he said this, he reached out his hand towards her.
Yue Lan was surprised when she saw this, but then she turned her head and gave a soft snort. However, even with all this, she still took Lin Fan's hand with a slight blush on her cheeks.
The two of them came out of the back and to the front of the store, but before they could even come out the door, they heard a man's voice from the front, "Give me all the units you have! Don't you know that my daughter is the manager of this store, just wrap it all up for me!"
When Yue Lan heard this, her body suddenly jolted.
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he felt the tremble coming from her hand. He stopped and turned to look at her, waiting for her to respond.
Yue Lan looked up at him and said, "That…really is my father's voice…" Then after a long pause, she said in a weaker voice, "Can you come with me?"
Lin Fan nodded and took her in his embrace before saying, "You don't need to worry, I'm here."
Yue Lan dug herself deep into his embrace for a few seconds before pulling herself out. When she came out, she had the same confident look on her face as before, completely getting rid of the weakness that she had been showing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Lin Fan could still feel the slight tremble that came from her hand.
Yue Lan came out of the back and came up to the man before saying in a loud voice, "What's going on here?"
The eyes of the staff member who was trying to stop Yue Lan's father from taking their Othello and Jenga games lit up when she saw Yue Lan, but before she could even say a thing, Yue Lan's father looked at Yue Lan with a smile and said, "Lan Lan, you're finally here! You really do need to train your staff better, they don't know how to follow orders at all!"
Then without even waiting for a response from her, Yue Lan's father turned back to the Othello and Jenga games and started putting more of them in his bag as he said, "Lan Lan, I'll be taking a few of these things. I have some buyers that are interested in these, so I'm sure that I'll earn quite a bit from this."
Yue Lan narrowed her eyes and said, "If you want those, you can pay for those. If not, you can leave."
Yue Lan's father revealed a surprised look before turning back to Yue Lan with a smile, "Lan Lan, there's no need to joke with me like this. This is your store and we're family, so what's yours is also mine."
Then without waiting for a response, he went back to putting the games in his bag.
Lin Fan could see the hesitation on Yue Lan's face, so he chose to step out at this time.
He came forward and grabbed Yue Lan's father's hand, stopping him from putting more games in his bag before saying in a cold voice, "It's too bad that this is my store."
Yue Lan's father was once again surprised, but he didn't mind it at all as he said, "So you're Lan Lan's man? You're not bad. You're handsome and you're rich to open a store like this. Not to mention all these products that you've come up with, I'm sure that our Starlight Chamber of Commerce will be able to rise again with you on our side!"
Then he moved in closer to say with a smile, "Since you're Yue Lan's man, that means you're a part of the family. Since you're family, you shouldn't mind if family takes a few things from you."
Then once again, he didn't wait for Lin Fan's response as he started putting more things in his bag.
Lin Fan shook his head when he saw this.
This man, it was clear that he was a selfish idiot who only cared about himself…But in the end, he was still Yue Lan's father which meant something…
So Lin Fan went against his impulse to hit this man, instead he grabbed the bag out of Yue Lan's father's hand and said, "Unfortunately, this is still my store and you have to pay for these items. But based on your actions, it doesn't seem like you're intending to pay, so I'll be taking these back."
