Closed on the 23rd for a holiday, after the New Year's Day, it will officially open for business on January 4th.

Although the length of the holiday is two or three days shorter than other enterprises and institutions, Lisa, Claire and Chappell have no objection to the opening date decided by Shi Xiaolei.

After all, Shi Xiaolei packed them a generous year-end bonus package before the holiday, the amount of which was almost equivalent to two months' salary...

Money can make a ghost run the mill. The boss pays so simply, how can the employees who want to make money not be active?

"Hum hum~~." Humming a little tune that he heard from nowhere, Chappell locked his motorcycle, took off his helmet, and walked towards the store door.

There has been no snow in the past few days, and there is no ice on the road. I rode a motorcycle all the way, and the speed was quite fast.

The air is still very cold, and the freezing is a bit unbearable.

"Ahhh~." No, when he pushed the door, Chappell couldn't help itching and sneezed loudly.

"Morning... er, God bless you." Halfway through the sentence, he changed his words, looking at Chappell who was rubbing his nose and shaking his head inward, Shi Xiaolei then teased: "Boy, what are you doing on vacation, don't be a fool It's too bad, your body can't hold a cold, can it?"

"No way." Chappell smiled angrily, went to the counter and took out a tissue from 2B, blowing his nose and waving his hands in a loud voice: "It's too cold on the road, I knew I wouldn't ride a motorcycle. "

"How was your vacation?"

"Hey, good. I went to Florida and stayed there for three days."

"It should be quite warm over there."

"Yeah, it's enough to wear a long sleeve. There's no need to wear a thick cotton coat every day like here..."

After chatting for a while, I drank a cup of hot coffee from 2B, and warmed my body that was frozen by the cold wind.

Looking at the wall clock behind the counter, he realized that it was getting late. Chappell picked up his motorcycle helmet from the counter again, thanked 2B, and walked to the staff lounge with a smile.

Before going to work, you have to change into the uniforms in the store, and today is no exception.

But unlike before the holidays...

"Ah~~~!" After entering the break room, after two or three seconds, Chappell suddenly let out a panicked shout, like a frightened mouse, scrambling and crawling out of the staff break room. come out.

Startled by his shout, Shi Xiaolei hurriedly poked his head out of the back kitchen.

No need to ask, watching Chappell sitting on the ground, pointing at the staff lounge in shock, and then following his finger to glance at the staff lounge, Shi Xiaolei already understood what was going on.

"Boss, inside, inside..."

"Sorry, I forgot to tell you." Scratching his head, Shi Xiaolei smiled embarrassedly, and introduced Skye who came to the door and Chappell who was sitting on the ground: "Chappell, this is Skye. Skye, this guy's name is Chappell. Don't be afraid, he's just a little ugly, and he's a nice guy."

"Hey, what do you mean by looking a little ugly? Boss, I'm handsome like this." First he couldn't help protesting, and then Chappell asked curiously: "Boss, this kid is... I'm a little bit... I don't understand, what is this situation?"

"I'll explain to you later." Shi Xiaolei smiled: "Before that, I think you should say hello to the little guy first."

"Uh~." Stunned for a moment, Chappell turned to look at Skye, and squeezed out a slightly embarrassed smile: "Hey, that, hello, didn't you scare you just now?"

Counting the days, Skye has lived in the store for eleven or twelve days.

After such a long time, she has almost adapted to the environment in the store, and her relationship with Shi Xiaolei's family is much more familiar than when she first met.

"Fortunately..." Looking at Shi Xiaolei, his heart relaxed a little, then turned to look at Chappell, Skye's expression was not full of alertness, just with some very natural recognition: "That, I Skye."

Not as outgoing as Kang Na, but Skye, who has been well nursed for more than ten days, can praise her cuteness just by looking at her appearance.

Coupled with her slightly cowardly confession expression...

Chappell involuntarily lowered the volume, and his tone was not as bluff as usual, becoming gentler: "Hi, Skye, I'm Chappell."

Well, the atmosphere is still a little awkward.

Seeing this, Shi Xiaolei smiled and said: "Chappell, the space separated by the curtain is Skye's temporary residence. I mean, man, you need to be more careful in the future, understand? After all, you are a man, Skye is a little girl, and there are differences between men and women."

"Skye, please bear with me. Chappell is not a bad person, nor is he a random character, if he accidentally disturbs you...emmm, I mean accidentally, if he did it on purpose, you tell me , I'll take care of him."

"Hmm..." Hearing this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Chappell turned his head and raised his hand in protest: "Boss, what do you mean by 'if it was intentional'? Please, am I that kind of person? You? That said, it's so sad."

"Who knows?"

Pretending to hold his chin seriously, he put on a worried expression. But the teasing in his eyes was not concealed at all.

At first glance, Shi Xiaolei was joking, and Chappell was not angry or depressed.

In addition, I just met Skye, and it was too awkward to chat with her directly. The clever Chappell simply followed the current atmosphere and showed his troublesome side as a black man, as if talking about Rap, and began to talk to him. Shi Xiaolei quarreled.

The flirtatiousness is very funny. Coupled with Shi Xiaolei's speech as the boss from time to time, he is speechless, and Chappelle quickly reversed his first impression in Skye's eyes.

Not a scary outsider~lightnovelpub.net~ but a very interesting 'oneself'.

Because the impression in his heart has changed, Skye's acceptance of Chappell has quietly increased.

Of course, in terms of the speed of getting close to Skye, Lisa and Claire are still faster.

Chappell is a man after all, and Lisa and Claire, not only women, are much more 'prettier' than Chappell.

No, it's just a short while, Lisa and Claire who arrived at the store a little later have already caught up and chatted with Skye back and forth.

"Tsk." Glancing at the lounge, Chappell rubbed his nose slightly enviously.

Just as he remembered the question he hadn't been able to answer before, Chappell simply got into the back kitchen and came to Shi Xiaolei's side: "Boss, what the **** is going on with that little guy?"

"Cut the radish, it's about 1.5 centimeters in size." Shi Xiaolei gave a first order, and Shi Xiaolei smiled: "I knew you would ask. This is how it goes..."
