Chapter 339 Infernal Affairs Episode 1
In the morning, the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, and the weather is neither too cold nor too hot, as if it is the time for outdoor activities specially arranged by nature for people.
Xiaoqi, a college student who helps out in a flower shop, is secretly thinking about how to sell more flowers.
She knew very well that her boss was lazy. Without sufficient income, the store would probably face closure, which would mean that she and her boss would lose their jobs.
In order to prevent this from happening, Xiaoqi started working early in the morning.
She went in and out, constantly moving pots of beautiful flowers to the door of the store, hoping to attract more attention from passers-by.
As the sun gradually rises higher and hangs in the sky, those colorful, gorgeous, elegant, delicate and fresh flowers appear particularly charming under the sunlight, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Sure enough, Xiaoqi's efforts were not in vain. Many people were attracted by these flowers and stopped to admire them, and some even bought them on the spot.
Seeing the sales increasing little by little, Xiaoqi showed a gratified smile on her face.
However, things don't always go as planned. Just when Xiaoqi was happily looking forward to more customers coming, a sudden rain came.
Xiaoqi was stunned. She looked at the flower pots that had not yet been moved back to the store and felt extremely anxious.
It took her nearly an hour to move the flower pots since she entered the store early in the morning. Now, it was obviously impossible to move all the flower pots back to the store in a short time!
There was really no other way, so Xiaoqi had to bite the bullet and run to the second floor, dragging the boss who was still sleeping down, and asking her to help move the flower pots.
Ni Yin rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered, "What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Boss, please stop dawdling!" Xiaoqi shouted anxiously, "The rain is getting heavier. If we don't move these flowers into the store, they'll be knocked down by the heavy rain!"
"Oh, flowers are meant to wither and fall!" Ni Yin said disapprovingly, "Xiao Qi, don't move. You might catch a cold if you get caught in the rain."
It’s not like she really relies on the income from the flower shop to make a living?
But it seemed that every one of the part-time college students she hired took the flower shop business very seriously, as if they were afraid that Ni Yin would close it down.
Each one of them is diligent, sweet-spoken, and caring!
When Xiaoqi heard this, she became even more anxious, tears welling up in her eyes. "Boss, if these flowers get damaged by the rain, we won't be able to sell them! Our store depends entirely on these flowers this month. What should we do?"
Ni Yin looked at Xiaoqi's pitiful appearance, who was about to cry. Although he felt a little reluctant, he really couldn't bear to let her work alone in the rain, so he could only sigh helplessly and join the team moving the flower pots.
In this way, the two of them began to move the flower pots in a hurry in the rain. The rain kept falling on them like beads with broken strings, and soon their hair and clothes were wet.
However, just when the two were busy, Xiaoqi suddenly slipped, her body suddenly leaned forward, and she was about to fall to the ground.
In a flash, Ni Yin was quick-witted and quick-handed. He rushed forward and held Xiao Qi firmly, thus avoiding an accident.
Just then, a black luxury car slowly stopped in front of the flower shop.
The car window rolled down, revealing a handsome and stern face. He looked at the two people who were in a mess in the rain, frowned slightly, got out of the car, and walked quickly to Ni Yin's side. "Why are you getting wet in the rain?"
When Ni Yin saw the person coming, he was stunned for a moment, then he realized, "Brother, why are you here?"
The person who came was Ni Yongxiao. He did not answer, but took off his coat and put it on Ni Yin. Then he and Ni Yin and Xiaoqi moved the remaining flower pots back to the store.
The rain gradually stopped, and Ni Yongxiao silently helped Ni Yin to smooth his wet hair behind his ears, his eyes gentle.
"Don't do this again in the future. What if you get sick?" Ni Yongxiao said with a worried look on his face, his tone revealing his deep concern for Ni Yin.
He thought to himself, the family doesn't lack this little money, so why should he work so hard?
Ni Yin nodded obediently, indicating that he would follow his elder brother's advice.
She reached out and took two towels from Xiaoqi next to her, then handed one to Ni Yongxiao, "Brother, wipe it off! Your hair is dripping wet!"
Ni Yongxiao took the towel, but he did not wipe himself immediately. Instead, he gently wiped Ni Yin's hair first.
His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting his sister.
After Ni Yin's hair was completely dry, Ni Yongxiao picked up another towel and began to wipe his own hair and clothes.
Ni Yin had long been accustomed to her elder brother's care for her, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
However, what she didn't notice was that Xiaoqi, who was hiding behind the cashier counter, was sneakily covering the slightly upturned corners of her mouth with a towel.
Every time Xiaoqi sees the boss and the boss's elder brother getting along, she feels that the atmosphere between them is particularly harmonious, as if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with them.
If Xiaoqi didn't know clearly that the two were siblings, she would probably have some special speculations about the relationship between them.
But, if you think about it carefully, one is a sister complex and the other is a brother complex, it is only natural that they are particularly close when they are together, right?!
"This won't do. Come home with me and change your clothes!" Ni Yongxiao frowned and looked at Ni Yin's clothes. They were all wrinkled. What did they look like?
"Brother, there are some upstairs. I'll go upstairs and change them later. You should go home quickly!" Ni Yin said indifferently.
It was her brother's clothes that were soaked, and she was covered in her suit jacket, so why should she worry about getting sick and catching a cold?
Ni Yongxiao looked at his carefree sister and shook his head, wondering how could she not take care of herself.
He was about to persuade them again when a fashionable lady came into the store, glanced at the three of them, and then walked straight towards Ni Yin.
"Ms. Ni, can I pick up the flowers I ordered earlier?"
Ni Yin smiled and nodded, "Sure, please wait, I'll get it for you." Then he went to the warehouse.
Ni Yongxiao stopped her and said, "Change your clothes before going, or you'll catch a cold again."
Ni Yin had no choice but to go upstairs to change clothes.
Xiaoqi went to the warehouse behind the flower shop to pick up the flowers.
The fashionable lady looked at Ni Yongxiao with a flash of surprise in her eyes, "Sir, who are you and Miss Ni?"
Ni Yongxiao said lightly: "I am her brother." A hint of joy appeared in the lady's eyes.
After a while, Ni Yin changed his clothes and came down to hand the flowers to the lady.
The lady looked at Ni Yongxiao again before slowly leaving.
Ni Yongxiao was still worried, "Your store doesn't have much business anymore, come home with me."
"Oh, brother, okay, okay!" Ni Yin couldn't persuade him and had to agree.
She walked up to Xiaoqi and said with concern, "Xiaoqi, I found a skirt that you should be able to wear. Come upstairs and change your clothes later!"
"Okay, thank you Sister Yinyin." Xiaoqi smiled sweetly and thanked.
Ni Yin gave Xiao Qi a few more instructions and got into the car with Ni Yongxiao.
Xiaoqi looked at the car driving away, smiled and shook her head, and began to tidy up the mess in the store.
