Li Qiao did not tell the news to these children, but leaned his back against the door, involuntarily lit a cigarette, looking at the blue sky outside the window, a trace of clouds drifted in front of the window, and the smoke filled his vision, and after a while, a nurse came to remind Li Qiao to snuff out the cigarette and walked into the ward.

"Okay, don't disturb the patient's rest, I'll have to go to work later. Li Qiao walked into the ward, and he patted the door of Chen Wei's head, who was the loudest noise, and the three children who kept talking to Xiao Chu about interesting things in the kitchen quieted down a little.

"You guys go back first, don't deduct my salary because I'm late, I'm glad you can come and see me. Xiao Chu was full of smiles, and it could be seen that reading books in the past few days has also improved this kid's self-cultivation, compared to Chen Wei, who is your uncle and his uncle at every turn, he is much more stable.

"Okay, you have a good rest, we'll see you in two days, we'll buy it again when the snacks are finished." Compared with the steady Xiao Chu, Chen Wei did not have the slightest sense of shame, and shouted loudly before leaving, but fortunately, there were not many patients in the ward.

"Rest well and don't overthink it. Before leaving, Li Qiao patted the kid on the shoulder.

Chu Xiaohe looked at Li Qiao excitedly, choked up, and finally said, "Brother Qiao, thank you!"

Li Qiao smiled, and followed Chen Wei and the three out of the ward, and when they walked out of the hospital, the three of them were waiting for the car at the intersection, Li Qiao threw two cigarettes to them, and then lit one for himself, swallowing the clouds and spitting fog: "How is your relationship, when did you meet." ”

"Chu Xiaohe is from my village, Zijun and Dacheng have known each other since they were in elementary school, our brother is a few thieves, if someone dares to touch my brother, I can't abolish him!" Chen Wei talked eloquently, took the cigarette and did not smoke it, but took out a pack of Hei Liqun from his pocket and threw it to Li Qiao in turn.

Damn, it's worthy of being a bonus, a shotgun for a gun, and a better smoker than me!

"Children smoking is not good for their health, and if they don't learn well at a young age, I will confiscate it on behalf of your parents. Li Qiao unceremoniously took the Hei Liqun in Chen Wei's hand, poured half of it into his Zhongnanhai cigarette box, and then returned the small half pack of cigarettes to Chen Wei, and waved his big hand and said, "Go to work." ”

Chen Wei knew that Brother Qiao was so shameless, so he didn't take a cigarette out and pretended to be forced, so he had to cry without tears and follow the car, but these little ghosts were also shrewd, just arrived at the door of the Huaijiang Hotel, and immediately got out of the car to scatter the birds and beasts, and Li Qiao, who couldn't get off the car, had to pay the fare obediently under the majesty of the driver, which was comparable to the price of a pack of cigarettes, and the gains outweighed the losses.

After getting out of the car, Li Qiao did not go back to the kitchen directly, but went straight to the finance office, at this time a few accountants just finished eating, and walked up with a smile, just on the financial office did not find anyone, just walked out of Li Qiao, couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, Li Qiao has long been completely different from the decadent appearance at that time, shaved short hair, wearing simple civilian clothes, but the sturdy figure sets off himself very upright, plus in the past few months, Li Qiao has not only saved people in the kitchen, but also heard that with one person to complete the problem of the partner, indirectly contributed to the Huaijiang Hotel's 100 million investment, this information has long been spread among the waiters and chefs in the entire hotel.

As the accountant of the finance department, but the well-informed girls, they naturally know very well, and they mentioned it many times after the dinner, this is because they were swept by Li Qiao's direct gaze, and they only felt that their cheeks were a little hot, and one of the bolder girls took the initiative to step forward and said, "Chef Li, is there something wrong?"

Li Qiao finally ran into the accountant, and couldn't help grinning, showing a mouthful of white teeth: "Oh, something, I want to ask you for a favor and ask Chu Xiaohe's medical expenses, have you prepared it now." ”

"Okay, I'll take a look. The little accountant didn't say a word, and didn't care about the whispers of the sisters behind him, so he walked quickly to his desk and searched, but Li Qiao waited for a while, and the little accountant raised his head and said strangely: "Chef Li, there doesn't seem to be any information about this Chu Xiaohe on the computer." ”

"How could it not be?" Li Qiao, who was standing at the door, was stunned, quickly dropped his cigarette, walked in, and showed a polite smile on his face: "Please check again." ”

The little girl hesitated for a moment, and finally searched carefully, but still didn't find Chu Xiaohe's name information, and there were hundreds of chefs in the kitchen, and there were only a few people in their finance department, how could they remember them all, so she had to say: "Chef Li, there is really no one here, will you remember it wrong?" Let's go to the manager and have a look!"

Li Qiao did not hesitate at all, went directly to the manager's office, did not knock on the door, directly pushed it open and walked in, this is a promising man in his thirties wearing glasses and looking at Wen Crepe, who is sitting at the desk, looking at the recent financial report, even if he noticed that someone came in, he still maintained the appearance of working at the desk.

After coming in and waiting for a long time, seeing that the manager still didn't mean to look up, Li Qiao frowned slightly, stepped forward directly, and slapped the table to make a "bang" sound, the manager raised his head slowly, and then said with a very surprised look: "Li Qiao, why are you here, look at my work too seriously, I don't know if you came in, what's the matter." ”

In the process of speaking, the manager did not stand up, but sat on the chair, leaned back against the back of the chair, put his hands on his lap, and looked at Li Qiao with a smile.

Li Qiao got straight to the point: "Chu Xiaohe's medical expenses have not been prepared, in two days, this child will pass the best time for skin grafting." ”

"Oh, you're talking about this! We're already preparing, and we'll be able to solve it soon, so you go back first, don't worry. The manager pushed his glasses, and then Shi Shiran said.

"Chu Xiaohe was injured at work, no matter what, he was injured for the sake of the hotel, and both legs were about to rot, doesn't it matter!" Li Qiao was very dissatisfied with his shirk, and did not leave, but directly pointed out the crux of the problem.

"Manage, of course, but this problem involves other departments and units, and needs to be assisted and communicated by many parties, and now there are many aspects of the hotel that are developing, but they have not stabilized, and the funds are not abundant, I am also very sympathetic to Xiao Chu's affairs, and I understand it very well, but I am a person who is soft-spoken, and it is difficult to deal with it." The youngest manager of the Huaijiang Hotel spread his hands, still showing a helpless expression.

Seeing that Li Qiao's muscles were jumping, his hands slammed the tabletop, and the documents on the table suddenly blew away from the airflow brought by the action, but the manager was still smiling, and he didn't care about Li Qiao's actions, and suddenly a piece of paper fell in front of Li Qiao, with the words "Chu Xiaohe" written in a crooked font, and this was a resignation letter.

"What's going on?" Li Qiao took the resignation letter, and could see that this was Chu Xiaohe's note, these four boys didn't go to school very well, and the words they wrote were the same as dogs, but this meant that Chu Xiaohe resigned automatically, and the hotel had no responsibility.

"Oh, it's this, I almost forgot!" The young and promising manager stood up with a smile, took a cigarette and handed it to him: "Chu Xiaohe, this kid is very smart, although he was injured, he didn't want to affect the hotel, so he took the initiative to resign, I can't keep it again and again, here is three hundred yuan, just a little bit of heart for me as a manager!"

As he spoke, the manager counted three from the brand-new playboy wallet and put them on the table, and Li Qiao, who had been holding back, finally broke out when he saw the three dazzling renminbi, scolded "bastard" in a low voice, and then slammed his fist on the solid wood desk where three hundred yuan were placed.

Immediately after that, with a crisp "click" sound, an obvious crack directly cracked on the solid wood table brushed with varnish, and there was a layer of dents visible to the naked eye, and three hundred pieces were smashed directly into the dented wood by fists, and they could only be torn apart if they wanted to take it out.

The manager was so frightened by Li Qiao's sudden momentum and movements that his face turned pale, until Li Qiao slammed the door and walked out, but he couldn't make his legs, which were a little weak, stand up.

But as soon as he went out, Li Qiao was stunned for a moment, only to see Chen Wei's three boys standing at the door with red eyes, it seems that what happened inside, they should already know, the two sides were silent for a moment, Chen Wei took out a thick stack of RMB, walked to Li Qiao, and said in a low voice: "Brother Qiao, our brothers scraped together some money to treat Xiao Chu." ”

Li Qiao glanced at the banknotes, a thick stack, at least more than four thousand, this is a few children after buying snacks for Xiao Chu, the remaining bonus and the rest of their monthly salary, together, but compared to skin grafting surgery, it is often seventy or eighty thousand, and there is follow-up treatment, it is a drop in the bucket.

As soon as these children finished speaking, they saw Brother Biao, Lao Xu, and Chen Fatzi walking up, with a thick envelope in their hands, and Brother Biao stepped forward with the money: "This is made up by everyone in the kitchen for Xiao Chu, this child is the smartest among the apprentices, I still want to wait for him to be older and accept him as a closed disciple, now this is definitely not good, after the operation, the kitchen is lively, everyone is waiting." ”

Even Li Qiao couldn't help but reddened his eyes slightly, he knew that in addition to apprentices, most of the people in the kitchen were people with children, and they needed money for food, clothing, housing and transportation on weekdays, or for children to go to school, and they were afraid that they would squeeze out the money from between their teeth.

Thinking of this, Li Qiao did not take the envelope, but squeezed through the crowd and rushed downstairs directly, even if Brother Biao shouted, he didn't hear it, and strode straight through the lobby where he was dining, and walked towards the elevator, a young man like a security guard was watching in front of the elevator, and when he saw Li Qiao menacing, he couldn't help but say nervously: "Brother Qiao, don't go up, now Xia Dong is visiting the facilities with the partners, and I will take you up when I have time." ”

"Don't stop me!" Li Qiao pressed the elevator directly, seeing that the persuasion was fruitless, the security guard had to do it, but as soon as he touched Li Qiao, he felt a huge force, and directly put himself on the ground, and when he got up with the pain, the elevator with Li Qiao had closed and went up.
