Chapter 0006 - A Beautiful Woman in a Small Restaurant
Liu Xiangyu stepped into the shady platform and smiled at the people inside, saying hello to them. The three elders nodded to the strange young man with a smile on their faces, and there was a hint of disdain in their eyes when they looked at him, which, though very hidden, caught the naturally sensitive young man, who knew that they looked down on him because of the shabby clothes of his migrant worker. He felt his pride hurt as the other man's gaze tore open a wound. He subconsciously lowered his head, as if he had done something unseemly, and his face involuntarily swept a trace of shame, but soon he raised his head high again, and hit back at them with a confident eye, as if to say that I will definitely fight for something to impress you who look at people with colored glasses. Of course, he didn't blame them, but secretly thanked them in his heart for encouraging him.
Two minutes later, a bus approached from the right and quickly stopped in front of the platform. The door slammed open, and several passengers jumped out of the car, and the two elderly men and middle-aged women climbed onto the bus. When Liu Xiangyu saw them get into the car, he raised his leg and kicked it, jumped into the car with quick movements, and sat down on the empty seat by the window. As soon as he was seated, the car started again, and it sped along the wide, straight road toward the city.
It was almost twelve o'clock at noon, Liu Xiangyu jumped off the bus and blended into the bustling flow of colorful people. He knew that finding a job was the most important thing, but the priority was to solve the problem of food and clothing, because his stomach was already rumbling and he was protesting strongly. Under the scorching sun, he walked a long way along the bustling street before finding a small restaurant. So, with a bit of surprise, he walked in with a denim bag on his back.
After a simple meal, my stomach was full, and I felt that my whole body was full of energy, and my spirit suddenly regained my spirit. He knew that the talent market had not yet reopened, and it would be useless to go, so it was better to rest in this small restaurant with an electric fan on. So, he leaned back in his comfortable chair and looked at the passers-by outside the store, thinking about finding a job, and his face was brooding.
At this time, a handsome and cute girl wearing a short slip dress walked over and asked the customer with a smile if she wanted to open the room and rest. Liu Xiangyu heard the gentle and pleasant voice like a lark, turned his head suddenly, raised his eyes to look at the slim beauty standing in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart. Seriously, he never dreamed that there would be such a beautiful girl in such a small restaurant, which is simply a waste of people. However, as soon as I heard her accent, I knew that it was a foreigner who came here to work and make a living like him, and I felt a sense of closeness in my heart in a foreign land. So, with a smile on his face, he politely replied to her words, and invited her to sit down very gentlemanly. When the girl saw that the boy in front of her was so handsome and handsome, so polite, she suddenly became fond of her, smiled, and sat down on the chair opposite him. The girl is a waiter, naturally hospitable, can speak, before Liu Xiangyu opened her mouth to ask about the accommodation, she finished the introduction in one breath, and finally said in a soliciting tone, the hotel environment is good, the price is cheap, the most affordable.
Liu Xiangyu understands that the girl is trying so hard to recruit herself in order to get a little commission, which shows her hardships. He understood very well the difficulties of people who went out to make a living, and at the same time, he felt a little sympathy, so he wanted to help her. But just as he was about to nod his head in agreement, he remembered the little money in his pocket, and swallowed the words that were almost up to his throat into his stomach. Although he had a thousand yuan, he knew that he needed money to find a job, and he didn't know when he would have an income, so he had to save as much as possible, and every penny had to be used on the knife edge. Thinking like this, he completely dispelled the idea of staying in a hotel, smiled at the girl in front of him with a little guilt, and then whispered to her:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to stay with you, I'm really sorry."
Hearing this, the eagerness in the girl's eyes disappeared at once, and was replaced by a face full of disappointment. However, she soon adjusted her mood again, and asked with a smile:
"You don't want to stay in our hotel, don't you think the conditions here are not good enough?"
"No, no." Liu Xiangyu hurriedly denied, "I think it's good here." ”
"That's too." The girl looked at the strange boy and said, "I don't think you're a rich man, and you shouldn't dislike a hotel of this grade." Did I guess right? ”
Although the girl didn't mean to despise this, Liu Xiangyu still felt that his pride had been gently stabbed after hearing this, and a slight embarrassed smile appeared on his face. Silently, he replied:
"You're smart, you guessed right. To tell you the truth, I don't have the money to stay in your hotel. ”
After speaking, Liu Xiangyu involuntarily lowered his head, looking embarrassed.
"Not really." The girl smiled and said softly, "Even if you can't make a lot of money, if you come to this golden metropolis, as long as you are willing to work, you can still pick up a few small dollars." I'm guessing you don't want to stay with us, that's what you said. ”
The girl smiled when she finished speaking, her voice was quite crisp and pleasant, and her flexible and talkative eyes kept turning on the other person's face, as if she was attracted by his unusual handsomeness, and as if she was pondering his thoughts, she refused to leave.
Although Liu Xiangyu is not a womanizer, he is still deeply attracted by the girl's beautiful goose egg face and is moved by her cheerful and charming smile. Somehow, as soon as he saw her, he felt a sense of déjà vu in his heart, an inexplicable trust. It is for this reason that he will tell her the truth unabashedly. Why is that? Is it just because she resembles her first love? At this moment, he thought of his beloved girl who was far away from him, and he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, and at the same time there was a faint sweet feeling. He shook his head and smiled, sighed, and said:
"Let me tell you, I haven't found a job yet, so I can't make any money."
"How so?" The girl said in disbelief, "Even though you are dressed like a migrant worker, I can tell that you are a college student." It's still easier for college students to find a job, right? ”
"That's right, I graduated from university a year ago, but I never found a suitable job, so I had to work on the construction site for more than half a year, and I was fired after a quarrel with the overseer. Now I'm unemployed and have to look for a new job. Liu Xiangyu said truthfully.
