CHAPTER 28: CHAPTER 28: TAKING THINGS ON THE SLY

Jiang Xin thought for a long time, using up more than half of her brain cells.

Finally, she reached this conclusion.

That’s right, she directly categorized the clothes Lin Ye was wearing as work attire.

That way, when he wears them, he wouldn’t feel any pressure at all.

Jiang Xin tried to patch things up and continued to say:

"Don’t overthink it, this is just the work clothes I’m giving you."

"If someone else worked for me, I would give them this set of clothes too."

"After all, when doing business, your attire is your face; you can’t dress too shabbily."

The clothes in Jiang Xin’s space were all high-end products of excellent quality.

Whether in terms of craftsmanship or stitching, they were impeccable.

The quality of these clothes can be seen at a glance by anyone with discerning eyes.

After all, the fabric of the clothes feels incredibly smooth, something almost unseen in today’s age.

Even someone like Lin Ye, a simple man, felt that these clothes must be quite valuable after wearing them.

It could be that these clothes are worth more than the monthly salary Jiang Xin promised him.

So, when he heard Jiang Xin say these were work clothes for him, he didn’t believe it.

He guessed that Jiang Xin must have known about his family situation and felt embarrassed to ask him for money, so she said that.

Lin Ye lowered his head slightly and said to Jiang Xin in a low voice:

"You don’t need to deceive me, these clothes must be the ones you bought for your elders, right?"

"You saw my difficult situation yesterday, so you gave the clothes to me."

"Don’t feel embarrassed to take my money, it’s what should be done, you don’t owe me, there’s no need to spend on me for this."

He doesn’t like owing others, so it’s better to make things clear with Jiang Xin right now.

Jiang Xin rubbed her forehead, how could she describe Lin Ye’s persistence?

Expected yet a bit surprising.

Her mind was spinning rapidly.

Finally, a thought occurred to her, and she lied to Lin Ye:

"I say it’s work attire, so it’s work attire. I still have more than twenty sets of these clothes over there."

"Today I’ll get you two more sets in different colors but the same style, I’ll bring them to you in a bit."

That’s what Jiang Xin suddenly thought of.

This excuse should convince Lin Ye this time, right?

Anyway, she had a pile of identical clothes in her space.

Later, when she went to get the sack, she’d secretly take out a few more sets of clothes from her space and hand them to Lin Ye while he wasn’t looking.

That way, he shouldn’t have any doubts, right?

Sure enough, when Lin Ye heard that Jiang Xin had dozens more sets of the same clothes,

Lin Ye’s confusion turned into shock.

Especially when he heard Jiang Xin say she would give him more clothes later, Lin Ye suddenly grinned.

He felt this job was truly worth it.

Anyway, Jiang Xin really managed to deceive him with her words.

What normal person would buy dozens of the same clothes, right?

So, the clothes Jiang Xin gave him yesterday must actually be work clothes, without a doubt.

Lin Ye instantly laughed out loud.

Now, he finally felt at ease without any burden, and he could comfortably wear the clothes Jiang Xin gave him.

To be honest, Lin Ye was quite sincere and not scheming.

Jiang Xin’s little trick immediately convinced him.

Not only that, but he was also excited about soon having new clothes to wear.

Seeing that she had fooled him, Jiang Xin instantly felt relieved.

She thought, if Lin Ye continued questioning her, she really wouldn’t know what other lies she could spin.

It’s good to have fooled him!

This was exactly the effect she wanted.

Seeing everything was about done here, Jiang Xin didn’t forget she still had to go see a house with the breakfast stand’s boss lady later!

So, Jiang Xin suddenly felt that it was getting late.

She had already wasted too much time with Lin Ye at the entrance of the market.

It was urgent to get straight to the point.

So, Jiang Xin didn’t delay any longer and directly said:

"Oh, let’s not talk so much anymore."

"The goods I brought are too heavy for me to carry, so I left them in the corner by the market entrance."

"Let’s not dawdle, let’s quickly bring the goods back, if people take them, the loss will be significant."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye immediately perked up, he had no idea Jiang Xin had left the goods in a corner.

Lin Ye was instantly anxious, worried that someone might have stolen the goods, and anxiously said:

"Then let’s not dawdle, let’s quickly get the stuff back."

"Let’s hurry up and set up the stall in the market."

Lin Ye was much more motivated, giving Jiang Xin the illusion that Lin Ye was the boss.

But there was one thing Lin Ye was right about.

Leaving the stuff on the street, there’s always a risk of it being taken by someone.

Jiang Xin had to be cautious.

If someone took it, her trip would have been in vain today, right?

Mainly, she wasn’t worried about losing it; she wouldn’t lose much even if she did.

It’s just that the goods were taken from her space.

If she had to get another set ready, she’d have to avoid Lin Ye, which was frustrating to think about.

So, she wasted no time and dragged Lin Ye to the corner where she left her stuff.

Fortunately, it wasn’t far from where she left it.

Walking for about three minutes, they reached the place.

Jiang Xin took a good look, thankfully her sack was still there, and nothing was missing.

Jiang Xin walked over and motioned for Lin Ye to help move the stuff.

Lin Ye was surprisingly efficient, immediately carrying everything over his shoulder.

Originally, Jiang Xin thought there was quite a lot of stuff, and they could each carry one side.

That way, both of them could be more relaxed.

Having Lin Ye carry it all himself seemed a bit too much.

But Lin Ye casually lifted the stuff as if it were nothing, looking completely at ease.

Jiang Xin: "..."

Could it be that she was just too weak?

How come it wasn’t this easy when she moved it?

Indeed, the strength difference between men and women is so vast.

After arriving at the market, Jiang Xin and Lin Ye took quite a while to find a suitable spot for their stall.

Because at this time, there were quite a few people setting up stalls in the market.

Jiang Xin signaled Lin Ye to untie the sack.

Yesterday, for convenience, she had tied the sack in a dead knot, so at this moment, she really couldn’t untie it.

So, she handed this troublesome task over to Lin Ye.

Lin Ye, with his nimble fingers, quickly opened the sack.

Jiang Xin hadn’t forgotten about getting clothes for Lin Ye from her space.
