Chapter 7: I had to take it in
The reckless Wu Yao always does something unexpected, once gave up on me because of money, and now he gives up money because of me, I really can't figure out what is going on in his head.
"Boss Chen, I'm here to apply, accept me." Wu Yao pretended to be pitiful and said to me. But his appearance is seriously inconsistent with his age, as disgusting as watching an old man sell cuteness.
"Don't call me Boss Chen, call me by my name." Because there was still a pile of goods in the back, I didn't just talk to him, but turned around and went back to the back warehouse to sort things out.
"I'll help you," he said, and before I could agree, he squeezed in. There's not a lot of space in the first place, and it's enough to make me tired with so much candy, and now he's squeezing in again... I didn't even have room to turn around. "Do you usually carry such heavy things yourself? Why don't you find someone to help you? With that, Wu Yao quickly lifted the box in front of me and put it on top of another box.
This small space really can't accommodate two people, so I quickly pulled out. "Don't you see I'm hiring?"
"That's why I applied for it." Wu Yao immediately picked up my words, as if this was a deliberate trick he had set to expose my needs for employees.
"Don't, you go, hurry back to the United States, I won't recruit you." Sitting on a chair outside and watching Wu Yao move things inside, it was like looking at a busy construction worker.
My little candy store really wasn't the place he was supposed to be. After living in the United States for so long and living a good life, now he suddenly wants to come to me and help me move things and sell candy, even if he can accept such a contrast, I can't understand it.
"Whew~" After moving another box, he took a long breath, turned to me and said, "I'm sorry, I have no money now, I can't go back to the United States, even if I go back, I have nothing, TOP doesn't belong to me anymore, and the building doesn't belong to me anymore." ”
Just as I was thinking about what to do with him, he continued, "So... You just let me work here, and give me a salary of 2,000 a month so that I can have a meal. A smile appeared on his face and he turned to work.
In that case, in order for him not to starve to death in Shanghai, I was forced to accept his request. "Well... But I have a few requests. ”
"You say." Wu Yao replied lightly, and continued to organize the box without looking back, as if the request I was about to make was not important at all.
"First, we're just friends, my love life has nothing to do with you, second, don't try to do something stupid to make me soft, even if you're looking for a rope to hang on the beam of the house I won't care, third, go back when you've had enough, even if the company is gone, it's not a place for you to stay. Understand? ”
After listening to my request, Wu Yao gradually slowed down his movements until the box in his hand froze in mid-air. He slowly turned his head and replied with a wry smile, "Understood..."
There wasn't much chores, and Wu Yao's strength was much greater than mine, so it didn't take long for it to be sorted out. Next, I explained to him what he needed to do, as well as a few regular customers who were close to my candy store. I thought that Wu Yao would be uninterested in these things similar to children's play, but I didn't expect him to take my words as seriously as work.
"Okay, that's it, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'll go home first, you can go back early." As I was about to close my doors and go home, a new problem arose.
"I... I don't have a house in Shanghai, and I don't even have luggage or anything. Wu Yao said embarrassedly.
"You've got water in your head?" I couldn't suppress the anger in my heart, and shouted at him, "It's okay if you don't rent a house, seeing that you don't even bring clothes or anything, do you want to live naked in Shanghai?" ”
"I said I wanted to start over, and since I was going to start, I naturally had to give up everything." Wu Yao retorted.
"You're sick! I didn't say I wouldn't let you bring your clothes when you started over, you didn't even have a change of clothes like this... I was really defeated by you. It was indeed a bit inappropriate to make noise in front of the store, so after scolding him, I began to think of a way.
"Forget it, you can stay at my house first, and then go buy a few changes of clothes tomorrow." With that, I turned around and left, and sure enough, when I turned around, Wu Yao was also following behind.
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Listening to Wu Yao's voice, I was also pleased, and I also understood his intentions at once.
"Damn! You just want me to take you home! That's why you didn't bring anything and deliberately made me back down! I turned to him. Because he wasn't prepared for anything, I caught a glimpse of his snickering look when I turned abruptly.
"No, no, no, it's not like that." Wu Yao hurriedly explained.
"Forget it, I've fallen for your tricks anyway, and there's no point in bothering with you, so be it." With that, I turned around and walked on.
Along the way, Wu Yao didn't speak, and if it weren't for the sound of his shoes rubbing against the ground when he walked, I wouldn't have known that there was a living person behind him.
When I came to Shanghai, I didn't bring much money, and I rented a storefront, so I had less money to rent a house, so I reluctantly rented a one-bedroom apartment to live in first.
"After that, you will sleep on the couch and make your own food if you want to." As I entered, I pointed to the couch and said to him.
He was also casual, he didn't dislike that the room was not good, nor did he complain that he wanted him to sleep on the sofa, but he also sat on the sofa leisurely and enjoyed his "new residence", "The place is good, and the sofa is quite soft." ”
It's been a busy day, and I'm even more sleepy when I get home, so I didn't say anything to Wu Yao and went back to my room to sleep...
Late at night, his throat was dry and uncomfortable, and when he got up and went to the living room to drink water, Wu Yao also slept comfortably on the sofa. Just now, he only cared about himself sleeping, and forgot to throw him a quilt, and he didn't ask for it, so he also fell asleep on the sofa with his clothes on.
I hurriedly went back to the room and took out another quilt for him, and when I carefully covered him, my head inadvertently passed over his mouth, but I heard him say "thank you..."
