I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 114 - 114 114 We Are Not Ruthless Bosses

Chapter 114: Chapter 114 We Are Not Ruthless Bosses Chapter 114: Chapter 114 We Are Not Ruthless Bosses Bai Zhi was sitting by Wu Wa’s stall, a small platform with nothing else around, just next to a slowly flowing stream.

The town was actually quite large; the elementary school was at one end and the high school at the other, but the high school was a bit farther away and Ye Xiu taught there.

Bai Xiang was going to be in eighth grade when school started.

“Ah Zhi.”

Just as Bai Zhi’s thoughts had wandered off. Wu Wa arrived…

She was carrying an incredibly exaggerated backpack, filled with numerous items.

From afar, it seemed as if she was being overwhelmed by the load.

“Why are you carrying so many things?”

Bai Zhi was about to help when Wu Wa stopped her.

“It’s okay, it’s not heavy at all. From now on, I’ll be depending on you…”

Speaking up to here, Wu Wa lowered her head, clearly troubled. Mommy said that without a high school diploma, she wouldn’t be allowed to return. Outside their village, a Formation had been set up, which she had previously forgotten in her playfulness, but now it truly meant she couldn’t go back.

She just hoped that Wu La could secretly come to see her.

She didn’t understand why Mommy was so cruel, but this was her trial, and she would try hard.

“What happened?”

Bai Zhi’s heart skipped a beat, reminded of the expression on Wu Wa’s mother’s face that day – she panicked, could something have happened?

“Nothing, just that my Mommy said I can’t go home unless I graduate from high school. I used to depend too much on them, and now I need to train myself, Zhizhi. From now on, I only have you.”

Suddenly, Wu Wa put down her backpack on the ground and threw herself on Bai Zhi, clinging like a koala while pouting her lips, clearly feeling wronged.

“Oh, so it’s nothing.”

It’s good that it’s nothing. Actually, the original owner and the books had no memories of Wu Wa, which should mean that nothing bad would happen, but her heart still hadn’t calmed down.

Was she overthinking it?

“Mmm mmm, from now on, I’ll rely on you for everything.”

Wu Wa suddenly jumped down, looked at Bai Zhi, and grabbed her hand to reassure her.

“Zhizhi, don’t worry, I can do a lot of things. I am strong; I can do anything you ask, I can even sweep the floor, wash clothes; the only thing I can’t do is cook.”

For some reason, she just couldn’t learn to cook. Every time she tried, it turned out terrible and she almost burned the kitchen down, so after that, she never dared to try again.

No no, this isn’t highlighting her strengths; she needed to think of something else she could do.

Oh yes, Wu Wa’s eyes lit up, her entire demeanor excited, she also could…

“I also can…”

Suddenly she stopped. She remembered her Mommy, who had seriously told her not to tell anyone that she knew how to make jewelry and even made her swear an oath.

Although Wu Wa felt wronged, seeing Mommy so serious, she agreed, even agreeing that the bracelet she had promised to make for Zhizhi was made by someone else.

“Zhizhi, I don’t think I know anything else, please don’t despise me, okay? All my tuition and living expenses are in here,” Wu Wa pointed at her large backpack, filled to the brim with items.

Wu Wa’s eyelashes were especially long, and she blinked at Bai Zhi in a particularly adorable way.

Plus, today she was wearing plain clothes, with two little buns in her hair, making her even cuter.

Bai Zhi couldn’t help but pinch her cheek, smiling as she spoke.

“Okay.”

Kids are just so cute, squeezing those little faces is truly satisfying. At that moment, Bai Zhi felt like she might be the weird aunt.

“I can also box, you know. I’ll teach you in the future, and you’ll be able to beat up the bad guys, how about that?”

Wu Wa suddenly remembered that she could box.

Bai Zhi’s eyes lit up, “That sounds great.”

“Mmm, I’ll learn.”

Seeing Bai Zhi willing to learn made Wu Wa even happier, seeming to find herself useful.

Bai Zhi waited with Wu Wa for Bai Xiang and the others, and then they went out to eat together.

It was their first meeting, and having made some money, the three of them decided to have a nice meal.

They went straight to a restaurant and ordered dishes—Mapo tofu, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and four happiness meatballs.

As for the taste, it was mediocre. Bai Zhi felt that the meatballs were mostly soybean powder with little meat and weren’t very tasty, and the Mapo tofu was only spicy. The stir-fried pork with green peppers was not bad though.

The meal cost them 30, which felt a bit painful.

Bai Zhi decided that she would try making Mapo tofu at home; there were soybeans at home, and she had also bought gypsum powder.

During the meal, Wu Wa once again claimed she could do anything, and Bai Xiang thought that this little girl was really good at selling herself.

After leaving the restaurant, Bai Xiang took them to see a house. The location was indeed good; although it wasn’t in a bustling market area, it was opposite a primary school, which was perfect for them.

The house had three main rooms, totaling five rooms including the front and back. There were two rooms on each side and one room in through the living room, although the room behind the living room was typically only for the elders in the family.

The kitchen was to the right as one entered the main door, with one stove and cabinets, and the toilet was on the left, fairly clean. Although there was a pigsty, there were no pigs being raised.

The space in front of the house was quite large, all concrete. With the school right across, they could easily set up a stall there.

Overall, they were very satisfied. The house was just right for the four of them plus their grandfather.

Having decided on the house, the three girls cleaned up while Bai Xiang went to sign the contract and also to finalize their partnership agreement.

The three of them agreed on shares: Bai Zhi 50%, Bai Xiang 30%, and Bai Fei 20%. Wu Wa was given a salary of 150 a month, including food and lodging.

Before going to sort out the contracts, Bai Xiang looked seriously at Wu Wa.

“Wu Wa, I’m telling you, this salary is really good. We provide food and lodging too. You won’t find many like this around our town. It’s really not a lot…”

Bai Xiang was very serious, especially emphasizing that he was a good boss and hoping Wu Wa would understand.

However, Bai Zhi felt like laughing because he resembled those ruthless bosses she knew from later on.

But Wu Wa cooperated very seriously, nodding vigorously.

“I know, I know. Actually, I’m not short of money. I don’t need a salary. I’m happy to work for Ah Zhi as long as my food and lodging are covered.”

Wu Wa really wasn’t lacking money, at least the checks her Mommy kept for her were astronomical.

But Bai Xiang and the others didn’t know that.

“That won’t do. We must take the salary. We’re not ruthless bosses. From now on, you are our little sister outside, and we can’t say you are working for us; otherwise, we could get into trouble.”

Bai Xiang certainly didn’t want them to be reported for exploiting a child, although he too was still a child.

“Mmm, I understand.”

Wu Wa nodded vigorously. Mommy had told her that from now on, she was Ah Zhi’s little sister, and she must listen to Ah Zhi and not mention where she was from.
