CAN YOU HEAR MY HEART ? - An LK Adaptation

Chapter 9: Unveiling the Mask

"Then... do you want to fire her?"

Zhou Minnie hesitantly asked.

Although 'fire her' wasn't exactly correct, as she was originally on a trial period and hadn't signed an official contract.

Jungkook said, "Why would I want to fire her? Teacher Lili came to our shopping mall to collect material. Naturally, this is our honor."

......

Minnie was silent for a moment before rushing to agree with the Boss. "What Director J says is right! She didn't choose that Jia General Merchandise next door!"

"Because the Human Resources Manager at Jia General Merchandise isn't her university schoolmate."

Zhou Minnie: "..."

"The background of Teacher's newest project is a department store. Moreover, our shopping mall will probably be the model. She has such a tremendous reader base--this can also be considered as a publicity campaign for us."

"Right, right! I also thought like this!"

Jungkook raised his eyes to look at her and said, "Okay, you may continue your job. So that things won't be awkward for her, do not tell Teacher about this matter."

"Understood!" Minnie breathed a sigh of relief before fleeing very quickly.

There was still one thing she couldn't understand, however--how did Lisa end up being exposed?

... Director J was worthy of being Director J.

Jian Yan was completely unaware that her mask had been unveiled. She continued to go to work at Starlight General Merchandise, each day proceeding the same as usual.

In general, the majority of clients that strolled into Fantasy Wardrobe were women, and even if they were accompanied by a male, those men would normally sit to the side and wait. Occasionally, however, they would come across an exception.

For example, the person in front of Lisa.

"This overcoat is pretty good. You would look stunning if you wore it." An impeccably attired man picked up an overcoat, a smile gracing his fair and clear face.

Lisa took a step back before saying to him, "What's most important is if your girlfriend would look pretty while wearing it."

She felt rather helpless. When she had seen him enter, she had intended for her other colleagues to receive him, but he had directly sought for her.

Although she was somewhat unwilling, she couldn't refuse a client.

The male smiled and said, "You share the same build as my girlfriend. Looking a little closer, you also look slightly similar to her!"

He took the opportunity to move closer to Lisa as he said these words as if he was carefully examining her facial features. Lisa's brows knitted together. This distance was already rapidly approaching the limits of her patience.

Out of the question, Lis. You are already an adult. You cannot beat up men as you did in your childhood.

"Then just choose this item. The checkout counter is to your left."

She withdrew another step and pointed in the direction of the counter.

The man completely didn't care about where the checkout counter was and merely beamed at her. "Perhaps you should take me to the counter."

Lisa took a deep breath. Just when she intended on seizing a random colleague of hers and having them deal with him, a beautiful male voice rang out from the side.
