Chapter 67: A Cold Winter Night

(Shen Xinyi said that she was very cold, hurry up and get some recommendation tickets to come over to warm up, and there is a collection, add to the bookshelf =-=)

-------------------------

The night breeze blew, as if it was about to penetrate into the collar and into the heart, Shen Xinyi couldn't help but tightly cage the warm coat on her body.

Fortunately, there are more taxis on this street, standing next to the cold road for a while, a taxi came soon, Shen Xinyi hurriedly beckoned, habitually sat in the back row, the door was closed, the biting cold wind outside was finally blocked behind him, the heating in the car wrapped the whole body warmly, Shen Xinyi's face was a little cold and pale, and then it regained some blood.

"Miss, where are you going? On such a cold day, walking outside with so little clothing, be careful of catching a cold. "The taxi driver was very welcoming.

Anyway, someone cared, and even though it was a stranger, Shen Xinyi still felt a warm heart. However, when I heard the driver's question, I couldn't help but feel confused.

yes, where to go?

Shen Xinyi stared blankly at the colorful streets outside the car window under the neon lights, and forgot to speak for a while.

In the past, when I traveled in my life, I had a manager to help arrange everything, although sometimes I suddenly had an urge to escape, and I was tired of that life, but at that time, she never seemed to have this kind of confusion.

Haven't you always longed for a free life?

Now that I finally mustered up the courage to come here alone because of my father, how could it be such an unaccustomed feeling?

Are you still nostalgic for your old life?

No, there's nothing to be nostalgic about. That's not a life I like in itself, it's just because of my mother's last wish. Now my father's eyes only have money and his antiques, and for them he can even trade the marriage of my own daughter, so what is there to be nostalgic for?

There was a shrill whistle behind him, so he thought he was blocking the way, right? The taxi driver muttered, 'I'm in a hurry to be reincarnated!' But he also asked a little impatiently: "Miss, where are you going?" ”

"Oh, take me to a better hotel nearby." Shen Xinyi came back to her senses and smiled self-deprecatingly. However, the big sunglasses blocked most of her face, and this apologetic smile was not easy to notice, but the two shallow dimples on her face showed a little beautiful shape.

"Okay, then the Blue Sky Hotel, it's more upscale in this area." The driver was extremely familiar with the place, and the car started and made a turn at the intersection.

"Master." Not long after the car started, Shen Xinyi seemed to suddenly remember something, and said a little embarrassedly: "I forgot just now, my wallet was stolen and I have no money on me." ”

"Snort"

The car came to a sharp stop, and the sound of tires rubbing against the cold road

"Hey, my sister is already in the car!"

Little Lori Su Qingxue ran out of breath, but she was still a little slower, and she saw that Shen Xinyi had already gotten into a taxi after a few dozen steps, and the car stopped for a while and turned a big turn at the intersection in front of her, and went around to the road on the other side. Little Lori could only sigh helplessly, thinking that her idol had no money, and she didn't know if she could pay the fare then, Little Lori couldn't help but be anxious, turned her head and looked at Lu Ming dissatisfied: "Big villain, you even caught up with the gangster's car last time, why don't you run faster today, the car is parked!" ”

Little Lori was about to count Lu Ming well, when her big eyes suddenly noticed that the taxi suddenly stopped abruptly on the opposite side of the road, and suddenly said excitedly: "Let's go, let's go over quickly!" ”

There was a pedestrian bridge more than 200 meters ahead, and little Lori hurriedly ran forward.

But when the two of them reached the opposite side of the road in a big circle, Shen Xinyi's figure was gone

Shen Xinyi had just said the sentence that she had no money on her, the taxi driver glanced at her, and saw that she didn't seem to be joking, a kind fat face suddenly collapsed, saw a vacant seat, hurriedly stepped on the brakes, and said unhappily with a cold face: "Miss, is it fun to work as a taxi driver?" We have worked hard to run, but we have to seize all the time to make money, now the housing prices are high to the sky, and the oil money is not going to rise, so I don't have time to play with you. Okay, get out of the car, it's really unlucky! ”

Shen Xinyi didn't expect the taxi driver's face to change so quickly, and he looked so kind just now, but now the words he said were so ugly. Originally, she wanted to say good things to the driver, and then find a way to give him the fare when she arrived at the hotel, but now she was so coldly addressed by the taxi master, she was already disheartened because of her father's affairs, but at this time she was too lazy to entangle, and she didn't say anything more, and opened the door directly and got out of the car.

"Unlucky!"

At the moment of closing, you can still hear the cold complaints of the taxi driver.

Coming out of the air-conditioned car, the cold wind outside seemed even colder, and the knife-like scrape on the skin immediately made the body tremble slightly.

Shen Xinyi looked at the busy street blankly, smiled self-deprecatingly, and saw a small pawnshop in the depths of the alley not far away, and couldn't help but walk over. She had a bracelet on her wrist that was worth a lot of money, and the jewel necklace around her neck was even more valuable, but she would never have taken it out for it! It was the mother's first birthday gift for herself!

At this time, the night is already a little dark, this small alley is less lit, because the location of the store is not very good, the small pawnshop business is very deserted, the two big words "dang" are still hanging well, and the other word "shop" should not care about it for a long time, the screw slipped off, so crooked and obliquely hung, the wind blows, and the vultures swing endlessly.

The business was deserted, and the boss was not in good spirits, and he was listlessly looking at a magazine behind the anti-theft window.

"Boss."

Walking from the alley where the wind was blowing, Shen Xinyi was already trembling lightly with cold, her high heels stepped on an uneven paved brick on the dark ground, and she had already broken her left foot, which was already painful before, and her high heel had been broken, and she was limping when she walked, so painful that Shen Xinyi couldn't help but breathe.

But there has never been such an embarrassed appearance today, at this time, Shen Xinyi had a stubborn mentality, and she didn't scream in pain. I secretly thought in my heart: Since my father doesn't care about me at all, who is still vulnerable to show me

"Oh." The boss raised his head, saw that there was business coming, and finally came to a little spirit, stood up and asked, "Miss is here to be something, right?" ”

Shen Xinyi nodded, took off the bracelet, put it on the high counter, and asked, "Boss, look at how much this is worth, the wallet was stolen just now, so I had to change it first." ”

When the boss heard this, a smile involuntarily appeared on his shrewd face, and it seemed that he could earn a little better!

This girl doesn't seem to have any experience at all, so she came to pawn things, and dared to tell her that she had no money! It's been a long time since there has been a business coming to the door, anyway, it's a small storefront, and it is a little bit to earn a little! No credit? The rent of the store is almost unpaid, and it is honest!

After making up his mind, the boss picked up the bracelet and pretended to look at it casually, and quickly estimated its value in his heart, the condition is good, and the gold content is also very high! However, the boss just weighed it indifferently, put the bracelet on the counter casually, and said flatly: "This kind of ornament is too ordinary, not worth a few dollars, but it's already in the middle of the night, and it may be the last business, so I'll help you reluctantly, five thousand." ”

"Five thousand?"

Shen Xinyi thought she had heard it wrong, so she asked uncertainly, but the boss still nodded and said, "Yes, five thousand, it's only this price." When or not? It's the middle of the night, and I'm ready to close the door and go to bed. ”

Shen Xinyi looked at the boss and said, "Boss, are you mistaken, this bracelet is only five thousand?" ”

Although Shen Xinyi has never suffered and didn't care too much about money before, this doesn't mean that she has no values. When she bought this bracelet, it cost 80,000 yuan, not only the style is trendy, but also full of color, and now this boss actually says that it is only worth 5,000? Don't bully outsiders like this!

"Five thousand is still high, now this kind of jewelry is everywhere, Miss, take a look for yourself, it's so late, you wear such a little clothes, it may snow at night, it will be even colder, there is no money on you, do you stay on the street for a night?" The boss knows countless people, and he can hear Shen Xinyi's Hong Kong accent at a glance, coupled with her embarrassed appearance now, it is very likely that she is here for the first time today, otherwise she would not have stolen everything so accidentally.

Such outsiders don't make a good profit, who else does they earn?

Shen Xinyi can be regarded as hearing the boss's intention to take advantage of the situation, such an obvious posture of killing people is too hateful! Shen Xinyi's attitude also cooled down and said, "Five thousand will never be taken away." ”

"Hehe, miss, why are you doing this? Looking at your family background, there is definitely no shortage of this money, so just take an emergency now. Okay, then I'll add a little more, how about six thousand? This price is already the limit. ”

Shen Xinyi looked at the boss's philistine face, and couldn't help but think of a person, Ye Mingze. It's this man who is full of copper stench, hypocritical, and has been currying favor with his father, and wants to trade her out of his father with money! He and my father came to the mainland yesterday, and now they should have bought the rare antique that Ye Mingze said!

By the time they returned, their father had already made a deal with him, and he would sell my daughter to him as a façade woman!

The anger in my heart is unbearable, and there is a lingering disappointment that is difficult to let go.

Shen Xinyi looked at the pawnshop owner's ugly face, her heart was extremely disgusted, and she snorted coldly: "Profiteer, I'm not right!" ”

Picked up the bracelet on the counter and left the store without looking back.

The boss didn't expect Shen Xinyi to leave without bargaining, so he couldn't help but regret it a little, and hurriedly said: "Miss, the price can be negotiated slowly, don't be in a hurry to leave!" ”

Shen Xinyi didn't pay attention to it at all, and walked into the alley without looking back.

The cold wind was blowing, cold to the bottom of her heart, but Shen Xinyi felt even colder in her heart. Why, these people are so realistic? Father is like this, Ye Zeming is the same, and the taxi driver, now this pawnshop owner!

At this moment, Shen Xinyi even felt that they were several times more disgusting than the thief who stole her wallet.

Walking to the middle of the long alley, Shen Xinyi's twisted left ankle hurt so much that she couldn't stop inhaling, and her body was even more cold and shivering, and several cold encounters tonight made her extremely uncomfortable, seeing a roller shutter door next to her that had been locked, and she didn't pay attention to the inconspicuous signboard on the door, so she sat down on the cold steps.

The ankle was too painful, and just a slight rubbing of her fingers on it made Shen Xinyi frown, thinking that she would have such a pitiful time, her heart was miserable, and she couldn't help shrinking her cold and shivering body, and quietly shed a line of tears.
