Chapter 42: Lies
Gains and losses, the main theme of life in the world, people are calculating their gains and losses all the time. Everyone wants to get more and give less, but the truth is often the opposite, we give a lot and get very little. This also makes many people lost in gains and losses, become greedy or sensitive, and even become afraid of failure, tired of fighting, and do not want to face it again. It's like a lie, but it pretends to be blind.
Sun Hao moved away, just as suddenly as he moved in. On Saturday, at half past six, I got up, washed, tidied up, and prepared for the first day of work after the holiday, as usual. After Sun Hao left, the time to wash became abundant again, and there was no need to fight anymore, after I finished tidying up my clothes, I glanced back and pushed the door open. When I came back in the evening, I thought I would be able to go back to my old place.
When I walked out of the door, I happened to see Lu Xue also open the door and looked at me with a smile, "Brother Xiaoshan, have you had breakfast?" She asked.
I shook my head.
"Let's have some breakfast, I just made it, otherwise it's not good for your health."
"Nope." I replied. He took a serious look at the smiling man in light blue pajamas with the door ajar ajar, took a breath and said, "I'm not used to eating breakfast, thank you." ”
Lu Xue smiled and shook her head lightly, "Then Brother Xiaoshan go to work, pay attention to safety on the road, I will replace the room back in a while, Sister Zhou Ying will come in the afternoon, Brother Xiaoshan is fine, right?" ”
"I'm sorry for you." I nodded, turned around and walked downstairs. When I passed the corner of the hallway, I casually glanced up, and Lu Xue was still looking at me with the door ajar, smiling. I flashed my gaze, pretended not to see it, and continued to walk downstairs.
When I came to the Internet café, Wang Huan was sitting on her throne and making a phone call, her expression was very serious, her tone was righteous and righteous, it was very weird, Aunt Liu was cleaning the battlefield left by the guests last night, and when she saw me coming, she glanced at me expressionlessly, which was considered to have said hello.
I didn't dare to disturb them, and walked briskly as far as they could see, hoping to inform them that I had arrived without triggering further outbursts of emotion.
When I came to the smoking place, I took out a cigarette and was about to light it, but suddenly heard Wang Huan's sharp scolding, "Xiaoshan, don't smoke in the Internet café!" ”
I shrunk my neck, quickly put the cigarette back down, walked briskly to the bar, stood down where she could see and didn't block her light, reclined against the bar, picked up the newspaper, and pretended to be nothing. Maybe it's those days again, and it's really hard to eat. I thought.
"How do you guys work! Does the customer know God? Oh, God! Do you serve God like this? Wang Huan held the phone and scolded loudly with an expressionless face.
I shrugged my shoulders and pretended not to hear, my eyes wandering over the newspaper.
"Are you wrong? I'm sorry? Do you think an apology will settle your fault? What about your commitments? Do you think a simple apology will undo the damage you've done to your customers? We searched the internet and finally found what we needed, but you delayed the delivery, do you know how much it will cost us? ”
"Will you compensate? What compensation do you have to use? What do you do to compensate me for lost time and hard waiting? ”
"Hehe, you're wrong? You're right, you're not wrong, it's all my fault. The phone is out of battery, so don't talk about it. With that, she slammed the phone and hung up the landline.
I leaned on the bar and didn't dare to move, carefully flipped through a page of the newspaper, Aunt Liu came over softly, and asked me what was wrong with Wang Huan with her eyes. I bobbled my eyes quickly in the newspaper to signal to her, and I didn't know either. Aunt Liu shook her head and continued to clean up her battlefield, while Wang Huan sat on her throne without saying a word, quickly clicking the mouse in her hand, as if browsing the web. I took a long breath and gently left the bar to the smoking area and lit a cigarette, the day might be a long time, I thought.
The morning time passed without danger, Wang Huan finally didn't lose his temper again, although there were many difficulties for customers, but maybe everyone didn't pay much attention to her for the sake of beauty, although the whole morning was full of ups and downs, but it was still safe.
After lunch, the hapless courier finally delivered the "Queen's" delivery.
The courier tremblingly stated his mistakes and the losses caused to the "Queen", and very sincerely offered an apologetic gift in the hope of receiving the "Queen's" forgiveness.
Wang Huan sat on her throne, holding the mouse in her hand and clicking from time to time, her eyes staring at the screen, not knowing what she was thinking, but her expression was full of tiredness and listlessness.
The courier carefully handed over the slip and motioned for her to sign. Wang Huan took it gently, wrote down his name, handed it back, and waved his hand lazily, signaling that he could go.
The courier took the slip and fled from the Internet café like a fly, and when he went out, he didn't forget to cast a look mixed with disdain and disdain.
Wang Huan still clicked the mouse unhurriedly, and didn't even look at the package that was placed on the bar. It's hard to imagine that earlier she was furious about the package, but now she turned a blind eye.
"What's wrong with Xiao Wang Huan?" Aunt Liu came over and asked.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Wang Huan replied lightly.
Aunt Liu glanced at me and signaled that I should answer.
I looked at Aunt Liu, and then at Wang Huan, "Are you really okay?" ”
"Nope." Wang Huan looked up at me, smiled silently, then raised his hand and rubbed his temples, leaned back and said, "Don't say it, I really have a little headache." Then he closed his eyes, frowned slightly, said no more, and rubbed his forehead slightly.
Aunt Liu seemed to see something, bypassed the bar, poured a cup of hot water and put it in front of Wang Huan, and whispered, "Don't hold on if you're not feeling well, rest more." ”
Wang Huan didn't speak, just shook his head gently. She didn't look at the package on the bar the whole time.
Aunt Liu looked at the package and wanted to help put it away, but in the end she gave up, she also shook her head lightly and walked away.
In the afternoon, the Internet café was as noisy as ever, and customers were excitedly venting their energy in front of the computer, looking for their own value and meaning between the unreal and the real.
The Internet café in the afternoon was eerily quiet, Aunt Liu was dozing off her, but Wang Huan was quietly staring at the computer screen, frowning and not knowing what she was thinking, and finally she put away the package, but she didn't wait to open it as before, but put it in an inconspicuous corner, looking like she would never want to open it.
Maybe it's best when something is wrapped, like a lie, I thought.
