"I was just kidding. It's not your business to begin with. It's just that someone didn't follow the rules and ran off with the money, which is really outrageous."
Bai Jiachen's eyes widened, and she looked sincere. She had a pure and innocent fairy-like face, with a delicate high nose bridge and a round and plump appearance everywhere else. But Lin Xu knew that her innocence was just a facade; she was not a naive person.
"I want to rest," he issued the eviction order.
"Oh, then you should go to bed early."
Bai Jiachen seemed a little disappointed, covering for him, and sweetly added, "Goodnight."
Turning his back, Bai Jiachen drooped his mouth, while Song Yi peeked out from the staircase with a glass of water.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jiachen looked unhappy.
"Sister, is Lin Xu okay?" Song Yi asked in a low voice because her sister seemed to be in a bad mood.
"It's okay, resting for two days should be fine." Song Yi breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What about finding someone to help?"
"I don't know, please don't ask me in the future."
Bai Jiachen was agitated, running his hand through his hair: "I told you earlier not to look for someone from out of town, but my uncle wouldn't listen. When I arrived, he didn't even call me once. He said he would deduct my salary and blacklist me. That person must be a scammer. The train ticket he sent me is also fake."
"Sister, let's call the police."
"It takes 3000 yuan to file a case."
"What should we do?"
"Just figure it out yourself. Song Yi, how did you manage to get first in the school with such a dull brain!"
Bai Jiachen dropped Song Yi and quickly ran downstairs. Song Yi knew that her sister was angry and felt a little sad.
It's not that he likes to nag, he's afraid that if Mom finds out they didn't hire anyone, she will take the opportunity to close the shop.
He has liked playing Go since he was young, and he also likes his father who can play Go.
If the Go classroom were to close, his father would be so sad.
Bai Jiachen went downstairs to get a bottle of ice-cold Coke, then sat cross-legged in the hanging basket on the second-floor balcony to post job recruitment information.
At first, she posted in the Leshui community, but no one responded for half a day. Then she asked a few friends for help and even had a high school classmate who works as an editor at the local media center to post the information in the "Charm of Leshui " topic section.
Classmate was surprised: "Bai Jiachen, your family's Go classroom is actually not doing well. Your aunt-in-law told my aunt that it's been losing money every year."
Bai Jiachen was stunned for a few seconds, and reluctantly replied: "My aunt-in-law was joking. Leshui, our Go classroom is the only one in the area, so the business is still doing well."
"Is it true? I've never seen anyone play Go before."
"There are many people who play, you just don't know them. Darling, send me a screenshot and I'll treat you to bubble tea."
"One cup is not enough, we also need audit and proofreading!"
"Okay, they will all be taken care of."
Bai Jiachen finished writing and took a sip of cola, then ordered milk tea for delivery.
According to her plan, if the recruitment goes smoothly, the only trouble left will be Lin Xu. She doesn't know how serious his back injury is. If he doesn't recover well and extorts money from their family, it won't be a problem that can be solved with just a few hundred or thousand yuan.
Bai Jiachen holds her head in her hands. Why is she so unlucky? She was just supposed to pick someone up, but she shouldn't have stayed to work when she looked so attractive and bewitched people.
At this time, Lin Xu was also pacing on the third floor.
He just got in touch with his cousin, and the misunderstanding with sister Bai has been resolved. However, his sister-in-law has already arranged for her junior high school graduate younger brother to fill the vacancy at the supermarket.
"Lin Xu..."
Cousin hesitated on the phone: "Why don't you just go home and find a proper job? Aunt has been worried about you."
"Brother, thank you for your help today."
Lin Xu doesn't want to continue this topic and hangs up the phone.
Swallowing a Fenbid, he lay back for a while, feeling bitter in his mouth. He got up and drank the plain water given to him by Song Yi. Then he called Yang Tianyuan, who answered the phone with excitement, almost jumping up.
"Lin Xu, why are you ignoring my calls all day?"
"I've left Hangzhou," Lin Xu sighed.
"Really? Is what they said true?"
"Mm."
"Where are you now?"
" Leshui."
"I've never heard of it. Where is that remote place? Let me tell you, Lao Cao is getting furious. You should hurry and buy a ticket back for tomorrow morning, or else the chess team will expel you."
Lin Xu paused. "I've submitted my resignation to Zhou Yue, the ninth dan. It should be on the boss's desk now."
"I rely on you, what do you mean by this? You gave Zhou Yue such an important thing but not to me. He is your archenemy, I am your sworn brother from the same year. Lin Xu, are you still a human being?"
"Don't get excited, speak calmly." Lin Xu put the phone away.
He had expected Yang Tianyuan to react like this, so he didn't dare to answer his phone outside.
Yang Tianyuan was in tears as he bitterly recounted Lin Xu's injustice, from their first meeting at the Beijing dojo at the age of ten to their participation in the national team competition. Lin Xu felt a headache coming on.
"Tianyuan I lost."
"You dare..." Yang Tianyuan choked up, "You're just going to leave like this, after playing Go for eighteen years, you're willing to just give it up like that?"
"I'm not satisfied," Lin Xu said each word deliberately, without any hesitation.
He covered his palm with a thin blanket, closed his fingers, and the soft fabric rustled against the calluses on his fingertips. "Tianyuan, you're also a professional Go player. You know I'm not feeling good, yet you still come to provoke me."
The person opposite fell silent. After a long time, Yang Tianyuan asked calmly, "What are your plans for the future?"
" Leshui is good. I want to stay here for a while."
"I'll give you the money."
"I found a job."
Lin Xu turned over and said, "Take care of yourself and get some rest. We have a match tomorrow."
"Tomorrow's match is not suspenseful. The opponent is very weak," Yang Tianyuan sighed. "There's something else I need to tell you."
"You say."
"Pei Yunlin lost."
Lin Xu made a move with his hand.
"This was her first game after defeating Jiang Youlan 9-dan, and the Go Academy attached great importance to it. I know you didn't attend the competition, and she stormed out halfway through and was declared to have lost."
