"Master, what brings you down here? It's pretty chaotic. You can just give orders from above," Shopkeeper Ma carefully eyed his master.
"You seem to have quite the leisure, chatting away down here. It appears I've been too lenient with you all recently," he said without anger yet with an air of authority to Shopkeeper Ma.
"Master, there are still two hours until lunch. I've taken care of everything," Shopkeeper Ma retorted quietly.
"So you think you have a point? Go and check how my meal is coming along. If you can't even do that right, you're fired," Xiao Chen said with narrowing eyes and a displeased expression as he listened to Shopkeeper Ma.
Xiao Chen didn't speak behind Feng Xuxu and the others, so Feng Xuxu heard everything clearly. Seeing Uncle Ma scolded by the demon because of her, she felt very sad and took it upon herself to step forward and help Uncle Ma.
"Young Master Xiao, this isn't Uncle Ma's fault. I was the one who begged him for help. Please don't fire him."
