Chapter 584: Rolling Stones Don't Grow Moss
In the light of the candlelight, the smiling Candace is the most fascinating. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Especially when her face was flushed, the corners of her lips were slightly upturned, and she looked at herself gently and slightly shyly with her charming blue eyes, Fu Zhengyi always had a feeling that it was not real.
It's like I'm dreaming......
Sensing that Fu Zhengyi was in a daze, Candace, who turned her face sideways, felt a little strange. "Boss, isn't the steak here to your liking?"
woke up from the trance, the whispers of the diners in the restaurant gradually became clearer, seeing that the girl's expression was concerned, Fu Zhengyi grabbed her right hand on the table in order to hide her embarrassment, and said with a smile. "Come, let me see your palm prints......"
"Wow, boss, do you still see palm prints?" Candace, covering her mouth, let out a low cry of surprise and became excited.
In his previous life, in order to hook up with those girls who came to the nightclub to spend time, Fu Zhengyi also worked the palm prints, not to mention whether he could see it accurately, but it was better than those who only knew the lifeline, marriage line, and career line for beginners.
The small hands that are placed flat in front of the eyes are soft and delicate, and the slender five fingers are very suitable for talking about the piano.
Fu Zhengyi, who gently traced his fingertips along the palm print on the girl's palm, found that Candace bit her lower lip with a cute look of anticipation but apprehension, so he asked with a smile. "Are your palms itchy?"
The fingertips that were swiping in the palm of her hand stopped, which made Candace, who had been holding her breath, finally breathe a sigh of relief and explained a little embarrassed. "Yes, yes. I've been afraid of itching in my palms since I was a child......"
"This shows that you are particularly sensitive in some ways, and it can even make you unable to restrain your instincts......"
Fu Zhengyi, who brought out those clichés in his memory, saw that the girl's face turned red in vain, even her earlobes, and there was undisguised shyness in her expression, and Fu Zhengyi, who thought about it for a while, suddenly became abrupt!
Seeing that Fu Zhengyi's expression had changed, and his eyes had changed slightly, Candace, who was extremely ashamed, quickly withdrew her right hand and hid it under the table, complaining in a very low voice. "Boss! This is a restaurant, it's a public ......"
Knowing that the girl had misunderstood, Fu Zhengyi, who was about to open his mouth to explain, found that the girl's face had changed in vain, his body straightened up, and he cast his eyes behind him, and then whispered. "Oh my God! It's incredible!"
Fu Zhengyi, who turned his head, saw that there was nothing unusual outside the restaurant, but he was a little puzzled and asked. "What's wrong?"
"Boss! Look at the alley across the street! There's a guy with a dog over there! He looks like he's keeping the dog warm!"
Fu Zhengyi, who turned his head again, finally saw the man and dog that Candace said by the street lamp.
The young white man with a black velvet hat sitting at the mouth of the alley had opened his coat, took a dog with a collar around his neck into his arms, wrapped it in his coat, and used his legs as a cushion so that the dog would not come into direct contact with the ground.
Standing up and coming to the glass curtain wall, Fu Zhengyi saw that it was snowing again, and a long rope tied to the roadside fence made the big dog with a collar unable to avoid the snow, and even though it had been held in the arms of the white young man's open coat, it seemed to be still shivering.
"Twenty minutes ago, I saw a woman tie the dog to the fence, and the wanderer who came out of the alley saw the dog shivering from the cold, so he came and sat on the ground and hugged the dog in his arms, I believe he was warming the dog, it was so touching......"
Fu Zhengyi, who heard this, was very surprised, and looked carefully through the glass curtain wall and said a little suspiciously. "He's a wanderer, are you sure?"
"Yes, you see his clothes and shoes, they are shabby. There are two small holes in the black velvet hat on his head! This kind of dress is definitely not a resident of this neighborhood, it can only be a wanderer who lives in this neighborhood!"
Speaking of this, Candace turned around and called out to the waiter who was putting down the dessert, and pointed to the white young man who was holding the dog in his arms. "Excuse me, is he a wanderer around here?"
The waiter glanced at it and replied respectfully. "Yes, he's been in this neighborhood for two years and is a non-aggressive, good-tempered wanderer. ”
"Wanderers, can a high-welfare state like Canada have beggars?"
Turning his face to see Fu Zhengyi's face surprised, the waiter who still kept smiling but his smile had froze said. "This gentleman, although he is homeless and has no stable job, is just a homeless person living on the streets. I think it's a choice for him to become a 'wanderer', so I'd like to suggest you don't use the title 'beggar' to define him so easily......"
Fu Zhengyi, who understood the reason, saw that Candace who was standing aside looked like she wanted to go out and have a look, so after thinking about it, he dragged her back and sat back.
"Boss! It's the first time I've seen such a kind wanderer, maybe we should go and bring him a hot coffee?"
Candace's suggestion made Fu Zhengyi frown, and he turned his face to see the wanderer holding the dog gently stroking its head, and the dog seemed to have eased up, raising its head and touching its cheek with its mouth, as if to express gratitude.
So he thought about it and said. "Wait a little longer, some things need to be seen, otherwise you don't know what will turn out in the end!"
"Boss! How can you be so indifferent? Although that person is a homeless, there are many homeless people like him in the United States! Their reluctance to go to a welfare home is their attitude, a way of life, and this is their freedom!"
"Candace, I have more sympathy for this wanderer than you feel! I want to see the end result because I want to see if I can help him more than just buy him a hot cup of coffee and send it to him, so that he can only warm up and fill his stomach for the evening!"
Hearing this, Candace opened her mouth in surprise and grabbed his hand apologetically. "I'm sorry boss, I didn't expect you to think like this, I misunderstood you, I apologize......!
patted Candace's hand and signaled that Fu Zhengyi was fine, but what he thought of was some special beggars he had seen in his previous life.
Don't eat, don't drink, and don't need further help from you, just asking for money!
Just money!
Even at some point, at the gates of stations, subways, busy streets, shopping malls, and restaurants, beggars with children, babies, and even disguised as disabled people were everywhere!
But after some of them finished begging, they would go to a small restaurant with the money given to them by the well-wishers to eat and drink, discuss with their peers where they could get more money, and by the way, they would also scold these well-wishers for being stupid, stupid, and brainless fools!
Kindness should not be taken advantage of!
Fu Zhengyi firmly believes this.
So even if he is in a steakhouse in Calgary, Canada, he is still skeptical, and even he thinks of going out for a while to take a closer look at whether there are cameras nearby, whether this is just a street show that a certain program team is secretly producing!
Thinking about all this, Fu Zhengyi's hands on the table gradually clenched, which made Candace, who felt that something was wrong with his emotions, also a little panicked.
The dessert was brought by the waiter, and neither of them moved.
Time passed slowly, and after half an hour, the street outside the restaurant was covered in a thin layer of snow.
Pedestrians on the street come and go in a hurry, some pedestrians will stand at a distance to observe the person and dog, and some people will not stop even if they pass by their side, and even speed up and hurry away.
After nine o'clock, a woman in a fur coat came out of a restaurant on the side of the street, and saw that the dog that was being held in the arms of the wanderer immediately jumped out of his arms, rushed to the woman's side, and waged his tail merrily.
The wanderer, who had risen from the snow, walked up to the woman and said a few words, but the woman only led the dog to untie the rope from the fence, and immediately took the dog and tried to leave quickly.
Waving his arms at the woman's back and shouting a few words, seeing that the woman did not look back, he got into the car and left, and the wanderer angrily kicked the snow off his feet, wrapped his coat and walked into the alley, and disappeared into the darkness.
Fu Zhengyi, who witnessed this scene, called the waiter over and asked him to pack a cup of hot coffee and a sufficient meal bag, and then paid the bill and left the restaurant with Candace and walked into the alley.
There were street lamps on both sides of the street, but the street lamps in the alley were very dim, and when he was about to walk to the end of the alley with Candace, Fu Zhengyi saw the wanderer's residence.
In the middle of two large garbage bins, in a small space made of tattered tarps and cardboard, a wanderer wrapped in an old felt is watching the two men into the alley with wary eyes.
Fu Zhengyi, who let go of Candace's hand and let her stay where she was, walked over and squatted down and handed over the paper bag containing the meal bag and hot coffee, and then asked. "You like dogs a lot?"
The wanderer, who hesitated to take the coffee and meal bag, raised his head and whispered after eating a meal bag. "No! I just can't bear to see it freeze to death in front of my eyes! The dog is sick and needs to go to the hospital! But its owner doesn't want to listen to me, the dog is pathetic......"
The wanderer didn't seem to have communicated with anyone for a long time, so his narration was intermittent, but he felt that he was a little unusual Fu Zhengyi, and at first he squatted in front of him to listen carefully, but soon felt that Fu Zhengyi, whose legs were numb, simply sat down......
