Love is like the hole in a donut

busy around.The dark green uniform pants and the straight-striped shirt looked a bit stretched on Zhong Chuan, and it seemed that he had to prepare a uniform that was one size larger for him.

[Ah, the store manager!You have worked hard! ]

As soon as he saw Cang Lin, Zhong Chuan immediately stood at attention as if he was about to bow and salute.His thick hand knocked over the bottle of ground cinnamon on the workbench with a thud, sending the powder flying across the silver stainless steel workbench.Tanaka on the side showed a wry smile, but Zhong Chuan didn't seem to notice it at all.

[You don't need to add the word "big brother", just call me the store manager.Please give me your advice starting today. ]

[Yes!Please also give me your advice! ]

Although the man exuded a careless air immediately, Cang Lin felt quite comfortable with his response.

Cang Lin quickly called him to the counter and began to teach him how to sell and receive customers.

[If you take it out, put it in a paper bag or carton.Pack less than four in bags, and put more than four in boxes.But when it comes to donuts that are easy to crush, no matter how many donuts you can put in a box...]

[Welcome~! ! ]

Hearing the man suddenly shout loudly, Cang Lin's body trembled.

[Ah, sorry, because a guest came in...]

[It's okay, it's fine, but... your volume seems a little too loud. ]

Zhong Chuan greeted the customers in an imposing manner. His reception method made people feel that this is a donut dessert house. The young couple was a little at a loss, but they still approached the counter area where the display cabinets were placed.Kurabayashi said to the couple with a smile on his face. The customer who bought the donuts picked up the tray and walked to the customer seats in the store. The man watching from the side immediately dropped his shoulders in guilt.

[sorry.Because I practiced judo before, I always raised my voice and yelled unconsciously. ]

[This is much better than the sound is too small. ]

There are many people who are afraid to shout when they start working.

A part-timer who is full of enthusiasm is really rare. Although the other party seems to be a person who is easy to be busy, at least he feels serious.

——It’s been a long time since I met this kind of child.From the looks of it, there might really be a work-study student worth looking forward to this time.

Cang Lin thought with a sigh of relief.

The man was so different from the Rinson when he first came to work in the store.Although Linsheng has corrected a lot now and can help sell donuts at the counter, Canglin can't help thinking that the boy couldn't even say hello well at the beginning, which gave him a headache for a while.

Kurabayashi unconsciously thought of the boy who was not here at the moment, at this moment, the college female student Ikutamaru seemed to have sensed Kurabayashi's intentions, and asked:

[The store manager~Uehara-san, which days will be scheduled next week? ]

[what? ]

When the girl suddenly mentioned Linsheng, Cang Lin's heart almost jumped out.

[You, why are you asking me? ]

[Why... I just want to say that the store manager might remember.This should be much better than going to the office to see it, right? ]

Tamaru, who tied her long hair into a bundle, showed a slightly dazed expression.

Rather than leaving the counter at work, she should think it would be better to ask Cang Lin directly, right?Recently, the relationship between Cang Lin and her has gradually become much more harmonious.

Not only that, but I am the store manager after all, so of course the clerk will feel that he has mastered the scheduling status of all employees.

[Let me think about it, if Uehara-san... there should be shifts on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, but why are you asking this? ]

Tianmaru looked at the customers sitting at the customer table in the back of the store, two high school girls in uniforms were looking at this place with full of expectation.

[They are my high school juniors.Store manager, you also know, isn’t Uehara-san very kind~]

[Which one is that? ]

[It's just so handsome.Before, Uehara helped them refill their coffee Ole, and they immediately became happy...]

The word "handsome guy" is not enough to describe Linsheng's handsomeness. Cang Lin already knew this when he first saw Linsheng.Although Linsheng was eye-catching in the store, this was really the first time someone tried to get close to him so blatantly.

According to the chain store's SOP, as long as customers order coffee or coffee au lait, they can refill their cups for free, so it's not a special treatment at all, but... maybe Linsheng smiled slightly at the customer.Recently, Linsheng has become more and more used to receiving guests, and has been well received.

Obviously this is something to be happy about, but Cang Lin's expression became a little stiff for some reason.

[Shop manager, do you think Uehara-san has a girlfriend? ]

[Uh...why are you asking me this question? ]

Tianmaru's question made Kurahayashi's heart beat faster again.Although the question this time was indeed surprising, it seemed that Tamaru did not expect Kurahayashi's answer either.

[That's right~ How could the store manager know.But even if you ask him himself, he won't talk about it... Ah, I accidentally talked about other things. ]

Of course, Kurabashi didn't dare to say that he had just met the boy not long ago, and Tianmaru didn't seem to show any doubts.Normally, everyone would never have imagined that a store manager (male) in the workplace and a handsome high school student (male) working part-time are dating.

Even Cang Lin felt that everything was a little less real.

Cang Lin loosened the brown tie around his neck, and for a moment, he felt that the time he spent with Lin Sheng was like a dream, becoming so blurred.

[Ninomori is not prohibited from working part-time, right~]

Standing at the guest table, Linsheng poured free refills of coffee Ole for the customers. Hearing what the high school girls at the table said, he couldn't help but glance at them.

On Tuesday evening, there were many high school girls in uniform at the Donut Star hotel in the early evening.This store is a little far from the station, so high school students coming home from school probably wouldn't be able to walk past here, but there have been a lot of student customers in the store recently.

Lin Sheng, who has always maintained his own pace, of course did not think deeply about the reasons behind it.Although Linsheng didn't know why those high school girls who had never met knew which high school he went to, but he was not interested in delving into the ins and outs of the matter.

He just responded to the customer with indifference:

[Should only those who engage in club activities have no way to work, right? ]

[Uehara-san, haven't you joined the club~? ]

[…Because there is no club in school that I want to join. ]

The other party didn't know when he still remembered his name.Lin Sheng casually thought: name, school... Will they even know where their home is in the future?But high school girls may be more interested in constellations and blood types, right?After Linsheng left the table, they still followed his figure with their eyes, chatting with each other excitedly, just like groupies.

[Welcome~! ]

On the other hand, every time the automatic door of the store opened, Zhong Chuan, who was standing at the counter, would yell out loudly.At first, Linsheng couldn't help shrinking back in surprise, but after listening to it a few times, he got used to it.The bulky, loud-voiced sophomore appears to be a new job student who just arrived on Sunday, replacing a resigned female part-timer.

In order to refill the drinks for the free refill customers, Rinsheng wandered around the store, and now he finally returned to the counter, but a female high school student came to refill immediately.A group of people crowded in front of the cash register where Linsheng was, and Zhong Chuan immediately opened his mouth and said:

[Ah, everyone can come here to check out!No one here now! ]

The girls showed obvious expressions of "No --" and rejected Zhong Chuan's kindness, but in the end they couldn't help it, and they waved their hands and said "Please here, please here!" 』, half of them moved to the next counter.

[Student Uehara, come here. ]

I don't know when Cang Lin started standing there. After the girls left from the cash register, Cang Lin, who was supposed to be in the office, called out to stop Lin Sheng.

[Can I trouble you to decorate the donuts today? ]

[Huh?But Mr. Tanaka said that there is no need to help today...]

[Nakakawa Student Association is in charge of the counter affairs, and Ms. Tianmaru is also there. ]

After wiping the tables and clearing the storefront, Tianmaru was about to walk back to the counter.Although the outfield is indeed well-managed, why did Cang Lin ask him to help?

[Will you worry about me at the counter? ]

[How, how is it possible!That's not the case... Ouch, you are better at decorating! ]

The man was obviously a little embarrassed, and felt that he was deliberately making excuses to talk nonsense.

Lin Sheng lowered his head and stared at the man, and the man looked back at him unwillingly.

When Mingming was kissing on the bed, just staring at the man, his eyes would start to drift; but once he became the manager of the store, the man was no longer lovable.

[It doesn't matter if I stand outside or inside... Since the store manager told me to go in, then I will go. ]

Lin Sheng wasn't so obsessed with doing the work at the counter, although he felt a little uneasy in his heart, Lin Sheng still obeyed the order and went into the kitchen.

Tanaka who came out to greet him secretly smiled.

[The store manager seems to like Nakagawa-san very much. ]

[yes? ]

[Although Zhong Chuan is a bit careless, it's rare to see such a motivated work-study student, the store manager is very happy!Ah, I don't mean you can't do it well. ]

[It does not matter, I do not mind. ]

In fact, it's hard to say that Linsheng or other part-timers are motivated.

Even if the customer is upset and picks on you, you still have to smile.A work-study student like Zhong Chuan who is willing to follow the SOP and respond with a sincere smile is really very valuable.

[oops,
