"That's good."

Zhao Mei nodded and said, "Your brother is capable, and life will definitely get better and better in the future."

"Mm." Qin Xuan nodded and looked at Qin Yun, saying, "Yun, thank you."

"Big sister, we're all family, no need to be so polite," Qin Yun said with a smile.

He was raised by Qin Xuan when he was a child.

Seeing the smiles on his mother's and sister's faces, Qin Yun felt satisfied.

For him, earning money and bringing more smiles to his family's faces is enough.

...

June 3rd.

In the rented room, Zhang Qing was sleeping; her shift started at two in the afternoon.

"Beep."

A message alert sounded on the phone. Zhang Qing turned over in bed and grabbed the phone.

She had only gone to sleep at one o'clock last night and was very sleepy now. She groggily checked the message and froze for a moment.

"Ah!!!"

Suddenly, a scream echoed through the room.

"Qing, what's wrong?" Sun Tingting opened the door and walked in from outside the room, looking at the disheveled Zhang Qing with confusion.

What could have happened so early in the morning?

Usually, she would have left the rented room by this time, but today happened to be her day off, so she didn't need to go to work.

Zhang Qing, holding the phone, said excitedly, "Ting, I got paid."

"Oh? You got paid? How much?" Sun Tingting asked curiously.

She knew Zhang Qing got paid on the 3rd, and when she heard this before, she was quite envious. At her hotel, salaries are paid on the 20th of the following month, which is still more than half a month away.

"Look at this message."

Zhang Qing handed over the phone and said excitedly, "4700, I got paid 4700 yuan."

"That high?"

Hearing Zhang Qing's words and seeing the message from the Agricultural Bank on the phone, Sun Tingting was very surprised. In her previous clothing store, Zhang Qing's monthly salary was only 2500. Now working at Celestial Fortune Clothing, it hadn't even been a full month, yet she got such a high salary.

"Hehe, the store's business is good, so naturally my salary is high."

Zhang Qing said with a giggle; it was the first time she received more than four thousand in salary.

"Let's go, Ting, let's go shopping and buy clothes!"

Crawling out of bed quickly, Zhang Qing was not sleepy at all. She said excitedly, "Now I have money, and there are so many things I want to buy."

She went to wash up in high spirits.

Sun Tingting was still in slight shock.

She worked eight-hour shifts at the hotel and often worked overtime at night. Sometimes, she had to wait for guests in the private rooms to leave, returning past midnight, or even one or two in the morning when guests drank.

Her hard work only earned her a salary of around five thousand.

In contrast, Zhang Qing was only responsible for cashing in at the clothing store, a much lighter workload than hers.

The two walked through the commercial street and unconsciously arrived in front of Celestial Fortune Clothing.

"Zhang Qing, you're not working today, so why are you coming to the store?" Qin Xuan asked with a smile as she walked over upon seeing Zhang Qing's arrival.

"Sister Xuan, I got paid today and plan to buy some things, just happened to want to buy some clothes, so I'll buy them from my store," Zhang Qing said with a giggle.

The clothes in the store had a high cost-to-performance ratio, so she naturally wanted to buy them.

"Then help yourself to try them on; we won't bother you," Qin Xuan said with a smile.

Having been in contact with these clothes daily, Zhang Qing naturally needed no introduction.

"Oh, let me give you your salary slip from last month."

Turning to the counter, Qin Xuan handed Zhang Qing a small piece of cut-off paper.

Base salary: 2700

Perfect attendance: 400

Performance bonus: 1300

Overtime pay: 300

The total salary added up to exactly 4700.

At this time, Sun Tingting was also watching.

She understood that the salary standards at Celestial Fortune Clothing were a base salary of 3000, 500 for attendance, and a 1500 performance bonus. Now it seemed that the salary was reduced because Celestial Fortune Clothing opened on the 5th, and the first four days weren't worked.

Otherwise, the salary would be higher, enough to reach five thousand.

"Sister Xuan, you go ahead with your work." Zhang Qing said quickly.

Not only her, at that time, all the store employees had smiles on their faces; they had also received their salaries.

With a first-level Wealth Gathering Array, Qin Yun had no difficulty making money, so he wasn't particularly harsh with the employees.

After buying the clothes and leaving the store, Sun Tingting couldn't help but ask, "Qing, is your clothing store hiring right now?"

Seeing the constant flow of customers in the store, the store's popularity was apparent. Sun Tingting even had the thought of switching jobs to work at Celestial Fortune Clothing.

"Not hiring for now unless someone resigns or we open another branch, then we'll hire another batch," Zhang Qing thought for a moment and said.

The store had eight fixed employees, four in the morning and four in the afternoon, not including Zhao Mei, Qin Xuan, and others.

Additionally, there were two part-time workers who came to work when the fixed employees were on break.

"Ting, are you thinking of working here?" She looked at Sun Tingting and asked.

"I… never mind, just asking." Sun Tingting hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.

The idea of working at Celestial Fortune Clothing was only a few seconds old before she quickly suppressed it.

Firstly, she had no experience working in a clothing store.

Secondly, business at the clothing store wasn't stable; when business boomed, employees' salaries were high, but during off-seasons, salaries would decrease.

She had also seen a few popular stores suddenly shut down not long after.

The hotel she worked at was a large establishment, offering dining, lodging, etc., so such issues didn't exist.

If she quit her job to come here and then encountered a downturn at the clothing store, she'd end up on the losing side.

"But the business in that store is really good now." Though she suppressed her thoughts, Sun Tingting couldn't help but glance at Celestial Fortune Clothing, watching the people coming and going.

She knew the store's owner was just a senior in high school, and it was unbelievable that a store opened by a high school senior could be so booming.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it.

...

The business at Celestial Fortune Clothing continued to boom, while the store owner was at school.

The final class for the seniors at Qingwu County First Middle School was in session.

"Alright, everyone, after talking for the whole class, I wish you all the best in your exams and hope each of you gets into the university of your dreams."

Class 18's homeroom teacher showed a rare smile.

"The Iron-faced Tiger of a homeroom teacher can actually smile?"

"Oh my, the sun is rising in the west."

The students in the class were all surprised.

After speaking, the homeroom teacher left the classroom.

The exam dates were set for the 7th and 8th, and the seniors' classes officially ended three days early.

"Phew, no more classes," Zhou Yang, sitting next to Qin Yun, couldn't help but say.

Hearing this, Qin Yun smiled and said, "Haven't you been looking forward to this day?"

Zhou Yang thought for a moment and suddenly said seriously, "Even though I was looking forward to it, now that the day is here, I feel a bit reluctant."

"So sentimental," Qin Yun teased with a laugh.

Senior year, filled with complaints while living through it, yet after leaving, often reminisced about it.
