"Teacher, I didn't consider this thoroughly. However, we've already hired two new employees at the tea house today. They're men and former Supervisor Guards, quite capable and nice people. With them around, the teacher's wife will have a much easier time."
"You should have hired male employees earlier, always hiring young women. Aren't you worried about their safety?" Liu Guoying scoffed, but his expression visibly softened.
Chiang Xiao listened humbly this time, not daring to talk back.
Liu Guoying glanced at her and then asked, "And this time, why are you taking a three-day leave again?"
Finally able to come back for classes properly, and now she's asking for leave again!
Chiang Xiao touched her nose and said, "Teacher, if I said I'm going out for field studies and sketching, would you believe me?"
"I don't believe your nonsense."
Liu Guoying scoffed dismissively.
