Chapter 155
Ye Ke didn't say a word the whole way. Ye Wenhui thought she was just too tired after getting up so early, so she didn't take it seriously. But when she suddenly said this with a stern face, Ye Wenhui was frightened.
Thinking of what she had promised Ye Ke before, she suddenly felt guilty. Her eyes wandered, not daring to look directly at Ye Ke. "It's still the same as before. Why are you asking this?"
When Ye Ke saw her like this, he immediately understood what was going on. He was a little angry, but he couldn't lose his temper, so he could only slap his forehead angrily.
She was careless, thinking that with so many people helping out in the shop, Ye Wenhui wouldn't be too tired. Ever since opening the shop, she'd either been in school or trying to make money with Wei Qi'an. This summer, she was so busy buying a house and collecting rent that she hadn't even visited the shop.
Ye Ke closed his eyes and remained calm.
"Nothing. I just thought I hadn't been to the store for a while, so let's go take a look first." Ye Ke walked into the elevator, canceled the 16th floor button that Ye Wenhui had pressed, and pressed the first floor button instead.
Ye Wenhui looked at Ye Ke's cold face and could no longer support her dignity as the head of the family. She touched her nose and persuaded him, "You must be tired after a busy day. Let's go home and rest for a while."
As he spoke, Ye Ke reached out to cancel and pressed the first floor button. As a result, the elevator door had already opened. Ye Ke saw that he had reached the first floor and immediately walked out quickly.
Ye Wenhui followed and saw Ye Ke walking faster and faster. She stopped to catch her breath, patted her thigh, and muttered, "This kid runs faster than a dog."
Ye Ke came to the store and in order not to disturb the kitchen staff, he went straight to Zhao Jing and asked, "Sister Jing, how many people are there in the kitchen right now, including my mom?"
Although Zhao Jing was puzzled, she answered honestly, "There are only two now. Xiao Wu had an accident at home and asked for a month's leave."
I heard that an elder in the family is sick and is currently staying in the hospital to take care of him.
Ye Ke closed his eyes. He was no longer so angry and had calmed down a lot. "Sister Jing, can the three of us in the kitchen handle this?"
Zhao Jing is quite capable of coordination. Usually, if there is anything in the store, either Ye Wenhui or she will make the decision. Ye Ke believed that she could manage the front office well and did not ask too much, but only asked about the kitchen.
Zhao Jing hesitated for a moment, "I'm pretty busy."
The C branch opened, and while business was brisk, it didn't divert as much traffic from the main store as expected. The main store was still incredibly busy, and the three people in the kitchen had to start working non-stop as soon as they arrived in the morning to avoid disrupting business.
Ye Ke rubbed his brows and said, "Sister Jing, please put up a job posting and hire two more people for the kitchen."
"Ah?" Zhao Jing didn't disagree, but asked in doubt: "What if Xiao Wu comes back?"
"That's right." Ye Wenhui walked in at this time, holding the door frame and panting, with a look of disapproval on her face, "If you are worried, just hire one."
She thought about the cause and effect and realized that Ye Ke wanted to hire someone because he was worried that she was too tired, and naturally he would not ignore her feelings.
But there's no need to hire two people, right? What if Xiao Wu comes back and sees that the kitchen is full?
Ye Ke knew that her current mood was a little off, but she couldn't care less. She directly instructed Zhao Jing, "Sister Jing, go and write it. Just recruit two people."
Zhao Jing glanced at Ye Ke, then at Ye Wenhui, and seeing that she had no objection, she went to prepare.
Ye Ke then turned to face Ye Wenhui and said calmly, "Mom, let's go back and talk."
There was only one person busy in the kitchen at the moment. Ye Wenhui actually wanted to stay in the store, but looking at Ye Ke's cold face, for some reason, she suddenly didn't dare to speak.
He wiped his face awkwardly and replied with a smile: "Okay."
The two remained silent on the way back.
Ye Ke didn't want to talk. She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would lose her temper and wouldn't be able to explain the reason for her anger. After all, on the surface, Ye Wenhui had done nothing wrong.
