Chapter 64: Clumsy in the Eyes
Whether it was pretending to be pitiful and wronged, or playing cute, Ke Mulan stayed in the end.
Ke Mulan successfully joined the company.
Kang Yurong gradually adapted to university life, and she began to pay attention to part-time work.
On this day, on the way home, she saw a bakery recruiting. She thought about it, this store is very close to the rental house, and it is only a matter of three to five minutes on foot, so it is very convenient to go back and forth.
But she stood at the door and hesitated, the last time she had Song Zhaopei as her companion, she was still nervous to death, and now she has no bottom in her heart when she is "fighting alone".
Go in? Don't go in?
Go in? Don't go in?
……
In the end, money triumphed over cowering.
At the thought of the dwindling pounds in her purse, she took a deep breath and walked inside.
The store is small but very clean and welcoming.
At this time, a man and a woman were busy in the store.
Seeing someone coming in, a chubby, woman in her forties hurried over and greeted her warmly.
Kang Yurong went straight to the point, saying that she was here to apply, and then briefly introduced herself.
The fat woman was very welcome, and then explained herself and the store.
It turns out that the fat woman is the proprietress here, and the man is his husband. The couple are from the town, and the store has been open for seven or eight years, and business has been good.
They originally hired a little girl, who had been working in the store for more than three years, but quit because she was getting married. So, they had to re-recruit again.
The proprietress asked Kang Yurong some formulaic questions, such as: Have you ever worked as an usher? Are you not familiar with the surrounding environment? Are you afraid of hard work? How to arrange time, etc.
Kang Yurong answered truthfully one by one.
In the end, the proprietress asked Kang Yurong what he wanted.
Kang Yurong said with a smile: I'm not afraid of hard work, as long as the salary is reasonable.
The proprietress liked Kang Yurong's straightforwardness very much, and she slapped the board on the spot and agreed to her to come to work.
From beginning to end, Kang Yurong conversed in English, spoke fluently, and showed generosity in every move.
This scene just fell into Ke Mulan's eyes.
He and Kang Yurong went home on almost the same road, but because of his work, there were not many opportunities.
Today, as soon as he turned the corner, he saw her hesitating and deterring her at the door of a store.
At first, somehow, he walked forward again, and when he saw the job sign hanging on the glass window, he was relieved.
I was about to ask her to say a few words of encouragement, but she didn't think about it, and just as she opened her mouth, she pushed the door and went in.
He didn't follow up, but stood at the door, quietly watching her every word and deed.
The woman in her eyes still looks jerky in communication, but her expression is quite calm and calm. In such a short period of time, it is not easy for her to have such a change.
Kang Yurong, who used to be timid and cowardly, and was ashamed of his inferiority, seems to be disappearing little by little.
After talking about everything, Kang Yurong said goodbye to the proprietress and walked out of the store to see Ke Mulan not far away.
I didn't expect him to be here, Kang Yurong was stunned, and then walked over.
"I got off work a little early today," she said. ”
"Well, there aren't too many patients today. ”
Ke Mulan put her hands in her trouser pockets, and her smiling eyes naturally fell on Kang Yurong's face.
His gaze was soft, but extraordinarily focused, which made Kang Yurong's already red face burn again.
She glanced at it hurriedly and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
He smiled even more: "The performance just now was calm and calm, which is very good." ”
Hearing this, Kang Yurong knew that he had seen his clumsy side just now, and the temperature on his face was unconsciously several degrees higher.
Kang Yurong was about to defend himself, and when he thought that he was going to let him see the most embarrassing times in his life, what else was there to justify.
Just come on, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and he said honestly with a cheeky face: "What you see is just a superficial phenomenon, in fact, I am so nervous that I will faint." You see......"
Her hands reached out to his eyes, and those two hands were rare in beauty, narrow and slender, plump and white. The palms are red, with several obvious crescent marks, covered with a thin layer of wetness.
She continued: "The sweat on my palms hasn't faded yet, which shows how nervous I was at the time. ”
Well, nervous indeed, he laughed as he saw her clenched little fists.
The two turned in the same direction and walked home side by side.
Ke Mulan tilted his head slightly and asked, "What is the nature of the work?"
"Hospitality takes care of money. ”
Ke Mulan frowned: "Isn't that hard?"
"I'm not afraid of hard work. Kang Yurong pursed his lips: "You know, I'm most afraid of getting along with strangers, let alone talking, just looking at each other will make me panic, I'm afraid that I will miscalculate the money when I get nervous." The proprietress said that if it was for my own reasons, there would be a shortfall in the accounts and it would be deducted from my salary. I was worried, and at the end of the month, I didn't have a penny, and I had to stick to the boss's wife. ”
Ke Mulan grinned: "How is it possible, how can there be such a stupid person?"
"Maybe," she said, "I am." ”
Ke Mulan smiled again.
After a while, he said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and when you are proficient, everything will be at your fingertips." It's not a good job, but it's one thing, it allows you to meet all kinds of people, and it can not only promote your communication skills, but also exercise your adaptability, which will be beneficial to your future. ”
It should be said that Ke Mulan is a master prophecy of unpredictable prophets.
He said that he could come into contact with all kinds of "colorful" people, and it was true. And this "lustful" person not only promoted her level of communication, exercised her adaptability, but also enhanced her courage.
At dinner that day, Kang Yurong received an order for delivery.
Originally, there was no delivery business in the store, but there were some elderly people in the town who were not with their children and had difficulty moving.
The owner and his wife are kind-hearted, and if the old people call to place orders, they will not refuse. This job used to be another receptionist, but now it falls on Kang Yurong.
It was an old lady who called, Kang Yurong packed the things that the old lady wanted, and the road was not far, so she walked over.
Rang the doorbell and waited quietly.
When the door opened, a thin man with a face that looked like a hemp pole came out, and his face was not of any color except pale, which was an extremely strange looking face.
Kang Yurong subconsciously took a step back, wondering in his heart, isn't it an old lady with a disease in her right leg?
Kang Yurong smiled and asked, "Excuseme, isMrs.Davieslivinghere?" Excuse me, does Mrs. Davis live here?
The "hemp pole man" was originally impatient, but the moment he saw Kang Yurong, his eyes immediately lit up.
The "pockbrush man" touched his chin, and the smile on his face was extremely obscene: "Yes."
Kang Yurong couldn't help but take another step back, fixed his mind and said, "Thisisthebreadshewants." This is the bread she wanted.
The "hemp man" stepped out of the way and made a gesture of please: "Shesinit, pleasecomein." She's in there, please come in.
Kang Yurong hesitated, but walked in.
Under the leadership of the "hemp pole man", he saw Mrs. Davis in the small living room on the second floor, gave the bread and collected the money, and Kang Yurong hurriedly went downstairs and went out.
When she was about to get to the door, the "hemp pole man" appeared, and while walking towards her, he said "Chinesegirl, play." Chinese chick, have fun?
Kang Yurong ignored him, walked a few steps quickly, and was about to pull the doorknob open as soon as he grasped it.
However, it was still a step too late, and the "hemp pole man" grabbed her wrist, pulled it back, and pushed it hard, pushing Kang Yurong against the door, doing down/stream movements.
All this was too familiar, overlapping with the scene in the restaurant, making Kang Yurong both disgusted and scared.
Suddenly, a few words flashed out of his head.
"When something happens, don't panic, don't just think about being afraid, that will only make you lose your mind and put yourself in a more dangerous situation. There is no help around, and on the premise of not harming your life, you have to think about saving yourself and judging the situation, sometimes you are strong and the 'enemy' is weak. ”
This is what Ke Mulan said after the "restaurant incident".
Kang Yurong settled down, used his hands with full strength, and tried to push the "hemp pole man", but he didn't expect to really push it away, and the "hemp pole man" staggered back several steps before standing firmly.
Kang Yurong took the opportunity to run to the coffee table in the living room, took out a fruit knife from the fruit bowl and put it on his neck.
The "hemp man" was a little unsettled, his voice trembled a little, and asked, "Whatdoyouwanttodo?" What are you doing?
Kang Yurong stared at him viciously: "Letmeleave, orIlldierightaway." Let me go, or I'll die in no time.
The "pockbrush man" smiled darkly: "Whataboutdeath? HerestheUK.YourejustaChinesewoman.” What about death? This is England, and you're just a Chinese woman.
At this moment, he was suddenly not afraid, straightened his spine, and said: "Chinesewomenarealsohuman,andallareequal." Chinese women are also human beings, and they are all equal.
She added: "Imaybesmallinyoureyes, butinmyfellowcountrymensheart, Iamalsoanimportantpresence." In your eyes, I may be small, but in the hearts of our Chinese compatriots, I am also an important existence.
She continued: "IfIdonotgohomeafterwork, myChinesefriendswillfollowtheclues immediately." If I don't get home after work, my Chinese friends will immediately follow the clues.
She also said: "IfIgetanyharm, youcantrun." If I get hurt in any way, you won't be able to run.
The "pockmarked man" was angry and glared: "Areyouthreateningme?" You threaten me?
"Itsnotathreat,itsareminder," Kang said. Not a threat, a reminder.
"Idontneedit" I don't need it!
"The pockbrush man" said and pounced.
