Chapter 4 Departure, Heading, Bar

Previous Chapter

Chen Xu saw that person, although it was a side, but he could not forget it for a lifetime, and life had to go on. Chen Xu returned to the dormitory, which was already empty, except for Chen Xu. The dormitory is still the same as before, just like when I came here with confidence and Top Gun, unstained with dust. At that time, it was the same way, I went to the dormitory first, there were no items on the three beds, and the dormitory looked extremely empty, clean and tidy. It's just that four years later, it's back to the same again, and it's clean. Chen Xu sat on Wang Yue's bed, looking at the bright floor tiles and was silent, he thought about a lot of past events and people, and he thought of the so-called confusion and bleakness in the future, perhaps it was fully foreseeable, Chen Xu buried his head deep in his arms.

After a long time, Chen Xu raised his head, got up and began to sort out his clothes and some daily necessities, in a few days he will go to a bar to work as a waiter, there is no way, a diploma from three universities is a piece of paper.

On the third day after graduation, Chen Xu carried a big bag and a suitcase and slowly walked out of this place where he had stayed for four years, spent his youth and lost his dreams, and he didn't know how he felt.

"Brother Li, where are you, I've arrived." Chen Xu said with his mobile phone.

"Well, I've got something." Brother Li's name is Li Wei, tall, 1.85 meters tall, and he is the person in charge of recruitment at the Taro Bar. Chen Xu hung up the phone, and Li Wei's indifferent voice made him uncomfortable. Chen Xu took a taxi and came to the door of the bar. The taro bar is one of the famous bars in W City, and it is also the largest gathering place for white-collar workers at night. Chen Xu frowned, to be honest, he didn't like this kind of place very much, and he had a feeling of panic.

Chen Xu followed Li Wei's instructions before and came to the temporary recruitment office of the bar, which was a medium-style room, about the size of a bedroom. When Chen Xu opened the door, Li Wei was leisurely smoking, drinking, and watching movies, with his feet on the table and shaking, squinting, looking very comfortable. When Li Wei saw Chen Xu coming in, he didn't change because of his arrival.

"Sit." Li Wei motioned to Chen Xu and said. Chen Xu glanced at Li Wei and sat on a chair not far in front of him.

"Brother Li, when are you going to work?" Chen Xu said.

"Yo, so diligent, it's not in a hurry now, I'll talk about it later." Li Wei still looked squinting, and Chen Xu had an urge to beat people when he saw this appearance.

However, Li Wei still got up and walked out, and Chen Xu followed in his footsteps. The two first went to the waiter's bedroom, then to the bartender's small dining room, and finally to the dressing room. The taro bar is full of food and accommodation, and Chen Xu also took a fancy to this, but the salary is a little low, a little more than 3,000 a month. Levi briefly talked about the rules and regulations of some bars, pay a little attention, and there are not many mandatory requirements.

After Li Wei finished speaking, when he was about to smoke, he paused to look at Chen Xu, shook his head and did not speak. Chen Xu didn't notice Li Wei's movements, he looked around, and felt that this place was still quite good, and all kinds of decorations gave people a feeling of being tall. Li Wei walked over and patted him on the shoulder, motioning for Chen Xu to follow him.

The two entered the room of the recruitment office again, and Li Wei gave Chen Xu the work card and work clothes, in fact, these were not what Li Wei should do, but when he saw Chen Xu's appearance, he thought of himself.

"Xiao Chen, it's not very easy to be a waiter in a bar, understand." Levi said with a slightly serious expression.

"Well, I understand, thank you, Brother Li." Chen Xu nodded, frowned slightly and said, but he was still discovered by Li Wei, and he shook his head slightly to signal that Chen Xu could go.

Today, Monday, bars usually close from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., and it's already 5 p.m. Chen Xu took his work clothes and suitcases to the waiter's dormitory 003 good room, the bedroom is divided into a balcony and a separate bathroom, it is also a bunk bed, and the two beds vacated are boxes and bags, this bedroom originally lived for five people. When Chen Xu opened the door of the dormitory, the original five people were getting up to wash their faces and brush their teeth.

"Hello everyone, I'm new, my name is Chen Xu." Chen Xu looked at them and said, the five of them glanced at Chen Xu lightly, nodded to indicate that they knew, and went about their own business, Chen Xu touched his nose unnaturally when he saw this scene.

Next, Chen Xu cleaned up the things on the last bed, but it attracted the voices and dissatisfaction of several people.

"New guy, don't break my box, I bought it for a few hundred dollars." Wang Xing, one of the five, looked at Chen Xu with dissatisfaction, and did not leave until Chen Xu put the box away.

"Damn, how did you put my bag on the ground, newly bought, you know? OK? A fat man called loudly, looked at Chen Xu very unpleasantly, and carefully picked up his bag.

"This bedroom is already small, and there is another person here, how can I live there." A roommate who was washing his face muttered.

Li Wei had heard the sound a long time ago, and he didn't come over immediately, he saw all of Chen Xu's movements, including his clenched fists and Tie Qing's face. Chen Xu's state is clear from beginning to end, and Li Wei is clear.

"What's it called, what's it called, if you don't want to do it, just get out of here." Levi came in and shouted at the dormitory.

"Xiao Chen, go in and put your things away, I'm going to work tonight, do it well." Li Wei smiled at Chen Xu and said, Chen Xu nodded heavily and went to tidy up his things.

The five people looked at Li Wei's gestures and movements, and they all mistakenly thought that Chen Xu was a distant relative of Li Wei, at least the words were not as fierce and disdainful as before. And Chen Xu also disdainfully went to set almost, this is his principle, not to bend his waist for five buckets of rice.

Chen Xu saw the true meaning of the word "society" for the first time, but he believed that hard work would create miracles and God would reward hard work. It doesn't matter if you don't come from a good background, as long as you have a heart to struggle, everything is possible. But what Chen Xu doesn't know is that society is a place that likes to break human dignity and principles, and it is also a place where your previous beliefs and persistence collapse. And who knows if Chen Xu can withstand the relentless blows of society.
