"Hello, Boss Lin, I'm not here to buy anything. I'm Bai Xi's father, Bai Deze. I passed by here today to see her," the middle-aged man said.
"Oh, it turns out you are Bai Xi's father. Okay, you have met him and you can leave. Don't disturb her work.
My store does not allow family members to come to the store, which will affect the store's business. If you come back in the future, I can only fire her and hire another employee." Lin Fei said indifferently.
"No, no, no, no, boss, don't fire her, I'll leave right away." After hearing what Lin Fei said, Bai Xi's father ran out the door, not even caring about the light rain that was falling outside.
Lin Fei felt a little better as he watched the annoying guy disappear into his shop. Then he turned back to Bai Xi and said, "Why are you standing there stupidly? Sit down first!"
"Yeah." Bai Xi sat down at the checkout counter obediently.
"Why did your father appear in the store? Didn't he disappear for a long time? What does he want from you?" Lin Fei asked.
When Bai Xi heard Lin Fei's question, his eyes turned red and he said in a low tone, "He didn't know where he found out that someone helped him pay off the loan company's debt.
So he came to see me and my mother a few days ago. Later I told him what happened. He also knew that he was the boss and you helped him advance the payment temporarily while I worked in the store to pay off the debt.
I thought he would settle down and find a job to make money to pay off his debts when he came back. Unexpectedly, he went out to gamble secretly yesterday and lost all his money again. He came to the store just now to ask for money from me. I told him
He didn't believe me when he said I had no money, and there was nothing I could do."
"Gambling is harmful!" Lin Fei thought, and then asked Bai Xi, "How much living expenses do you have left now?"
"There are...more than three hundred left."
After hearing this, Lin Fei frowned again and said, "It doesn't make sense, why is this the only thing? Didn't I give you a red envelope during the Chinese New Year?"
Bai Xi twirled her fingers, lowered her head and whispered, "The red envelope was stolen by my father."
It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs, so Lin Fei had no choice but to help Bai Xi solve such a matter.
He raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket, found Bai Xi's WeChat account and transferred 2,000 yuan to her.
"I transferred 2,000 yuan to you via WeChat, which is like giving you an advance of part of your salary, and the rest will be sent to you at the end of the month.
Use the money to buy yourself some good food and don't eat so frugally every day, got it?" Lin Fei ordered.
"Well, thank you, boss." Bai Xi responded softly.
"Okay, let's do this for now. You take care of the store and I'll go back."
"Yeah, boss, go slowly."
After Lin Fei left the flower shop, he paused at the door for a few seconds, and then went to the milk tea shop next door.
"Hey, Boss Lin is back from a date with the beautiful host!" Liu Zihan joked immediately after seeing Lin Fei.
"It's not a date, she just wanted to talk to me about something. We've only met a few times, and we're not even friends." Lin Fei said with a headache.
There were not many customers in the shop today because of the rain. Liu Zihan went to the flower shop to chat with Bai Xi. She had bumped into Ning Yu when she came to the shop to look for him. After all, Ning Yu often appeared on TV shows. As soon as she saw Ning Yu,
Yu immediately recognized her identity.
"Okay Zihan, it's rare for Lin Fei to come to the store once. Please stop teasing Lin Fei. Would you like a cup of milk tea?" Lin Wan who was standing aside asked Lin Fei.
"I want it, the same old way."
"Well, please wait a moment."
"Lin Fei, I looked at your updates in Moments and found that your Moments are basically full of photos of food. Did you cook those dishes yourself?" Liu Zihan asked curiously.
Lin Fei smiled and said "Yeah".
"Then you are really awesome! Seeing how many dishes you have given me, you know more than my mother knows." Liu Zihan said with a smile.
"There is no way. You must learn to cook when you live alone. After so many years, I learned a dish every once in a while, and accumulated little and little, and finally accumulated the results I have today." Lin Fei said with a smile.
"Let me tell you, Xiaowan's cooking skills are also very good. She has loved cooking since she was a child. If you have the opportunity, you two can compete." Liu Zihan chuckled.
"I didn't expect that Lin Wan also likes cooking. Very few girls have this hobby nowadays." Lin Fei looked at Lin Wan who was making milk tea in surprise.
"Because both my parents are chefs, they have been exposed to it since childhood, so I fell in love with cooking. When I have free time, I will learn to cook some dishes from them. After all these years, I feel that I am still pretty good." Lin Wan was a little proud.
said.
"Well, I didn't expect that there is a great master hidden next to me. Then I will have to ask you for more advice in the future. My cooking skills are all based on my own wild methods." Lin Fei chuckled.
"Okay!" Lin Wan nodded and smiled.
Liu Zihan looked at Lin Fei and Lin Wan, and silently praised herself in her heart.

As dusk approaches, the sun on the horizon is about to disappear among the mountains, leaving only the last bits of the bright red sunset. Due to the angle, these last remaining lights are all concentrated in the area of the World Passage.
At the entrance to the world passage in the first town, 20 level 3 peak investigators were ready to go, quietly waiting for the order to attack.
Bai Moyan raised his right hand and looked at the time on his watch. There was only one minute left before the start of the battle plan.
He opened his mouth and said to the members of the combat team, "Everyone, keep in mind the core of this operation. Everything is focused on consuming the enemy's vitality. You must not be reluctant to fight. You only have three minutes at most. You must return when three minutes are up.
Of course, even if there are three minutes left, as long as your captain Liang Wei orders everyone to retreat, you must withdraw immediately, remember?"
"Yes." Twenty investigators responded in unison.
After a few seconds, Bai Moyan looked at his watch again, and then ordered, "Let's go."
The auxiliary personnel who had been preparing for a long time immediately activated their powers to act on these combatants, and the figures of these 20 investigators immediately disappeared from everyone's sight.
"boom."
The grassland in front of the world passage collapsed slightly, and a strong wind spread and released in all directions.
…………
In the spirit world, at the entrance to the world passage, Zhu Mumu led his deputy to patrol the defensive positions around the world passage.
Zhu Mumu's deputy took out a timer that looked like a pocket watch from his pocket, glanced at the time and said to Zhu Mumu, "Lord Commander, there are still ten minutes left, and the world passage is closed again. This life is really boring.
Ah! Today has passed so uneventfully again."
"I know everyone is anxious, but we can just be patient for a little longer. According to the news from Dolphin City, our envoy has arrived in Wolf City.
We are currently discussing peace matters with those stupid wolves in Wolf City. According to the temperament of those stupid wolves, it should not take long to reach an agreement. By then, the two generals Zhuwu and Zhuliu from the border will lead their armies to support
us.
As soon as the army arrives, we don't have to be as timid as we are now. Even if we can't immediately launch a general attack on the other world on the opposite side of the world passage, we can still send out a small team to harass." Zhu Mumu said to his subordinates.
