Chapter 107: Do You Deserve It?
Jing Yu snorted coldly in his heart as he heard that. His two cheap-skate relatives who had been beating around the bush finally got to the point. However, Jing Yu remained calm and collected. He gave a slight smile and said, “Uncle, aunt, I regret to say that I will have to disappoint you. This shop was actually entrusted to me by someone else. I don’t have the right to distribute any of these shares. If you both are really interested, why don’t you make out some money and invest it in the shop first? I’ll discuss it with the boss behind the scenes and see if we can get you to invest in the shop.”
“What are you talking about, kid? Look at that name. It’s the name of our Jing Family. How can you say that there’s another boss behind it? Besides, we don’t have any savings, so we definitely can’t afford to invest. We are your closest family. You shouldn’t forget about us once you become successful, right?”
Jing Yu was telling the truth. There was indeed another boss behind him. However, Li Qin could not bear to hear such words. She just felt that Jing Yu was not willing to give them any shares, so she quickly took over Wang Long’s words and once again made things difficult for Jing Yu.
When Jing Yu heard what Li Qin said, he secretly cursed these two people for being so shameless.
However, his faint smile remained on his face. “Uncle, what are you talking about? I really can’t make the decision in this store! I’m really in a difficult position. I hope that you both can forgive me.”!!
“Don’t be modest. It’s only a matter of time before your store can make money. Moreover, it’s such a big matter. Even if you don’t give us a share of the profits, you should at least give your uncle some money, right?” Lin Qin said.
She then quickly put on a miserable look and acted as if it was Jing Yu who was at fault. If Jing Yu did not want to give her any money since they were not related by blood, he could not possibly ignore his uncle, right. He would appear to be a youngster who forsook his principles for profit.
“Jing Yu, how is the renovation of the shop coming along? I have already contacted the herbalists in the mountains since I was in the village. They are preparing to come over and deliver the medicine.”
Jing Yu had to deal with his uncle and aunt, so the work that he could have finished before noon was only half-finished by then.
“Yun Xi, you’re here? There’s still a little more to go. I’ll finish it later. I have relatives here.”
“Relatives?”
Yun Xi found it very unbelievable. Could Jing Yu still have relatives? His mother was dying of illness at home and none of his relatives came to help. The pharmacy had not even opened yet. Where did they get the news from? How could there be relatives coming to visit?
“Oh, Jing Yu, you can’t just ignore your uncle!”
Someone came to the store and Wang Long thought that Jing Yu was going to run away. If so, their plans would be in vain. Wang Long quickly followed Jing Yu from the store’s warehouse to the counter.
“Oh, it’s you. Old Man, this is the girl who told me this morning that our Jing Yu opened a shop here.”
Li Qin recognized Yun Xi as the girl from that morning and told Wang Long the news. After all, Yun Xi’s appearance was 80% similar to Yun Lian’s.
“Yun Xi, did you inform my uncle and aunt?”
Yun Xi shook her head. After giving it some thought, she realized that the snitch behind this matter would be her younger sister, Yun Lian, who had a face similar to hers.
How did Yun Lian get first-hand information about her every time? How did she find someone to cause her trouble every time? Yun Xi did not know why, but she had to be more vigilant in the future.
“Miss, you said that my nephew’s medicine shop is big. It’s not too much for us to ask for a little bonus, right?”
Thinking about how this girl came to inform her this morning, she must have been on their side and supported the bonus. However, they did not know that their words had angered the real owner of the shop.
“Why do you think you can get a share of the profits?”
Yun Xi was not as polite as Jing Yu. They were not her uncle or aunt, so she did not bother to be nice.
