After we got in the car, Mr. Ji instructed Master He to drive to the Royal Restaurant, which is a top Western restaurant that needs to make an appointment three days in advance, providing all kinds of high-end fresh dishes and fried cheese food, with an average per capita estimate of about 2,000 yuan, which is just the food does not contain high-end alcohol, and the dinner is more expensive than the lunch, the food is exquisite, and the night view of the riverside is even more beautiful.

Jiang Huan is a nodding figure on the road, but in the royal restaurant, he has only accompanied Boss Jin in, so he can't wait for the number at all.

People are like this, the best existence in the circle you think is, and if you take a step further, you really can't even talk about trivial things.

I am very afraid of a high-end and unfamiliar environment, I am afraid of being ugly, because I just came to South China to work hard, I have made too many ugliness, I even dreamed of being ridiculed and ignored by others at that time, and I wanted to kill myself when I was most panicked. So when I arrived at the Royal Restaurant, I didn't dare to go forward, Master He went to park, and I stood next to Mr. Ji and followed him, and I didn't move if he didn't move.

The welcome lady at the door immediately showed a sweet smile when she saw Mr. Ji coming over, she greeted and asked if there were still old rules, Mr. Ji said yes, she stretched out her hand to lead us in, bypassing a huge fish tank, the corals and shells in it are particularly beautiful, not like wild, should be artificially carved and raised, amazingly large, gorgeous, as if it can shine.

We sat by the window, this location is particularly good, slightly tilted to see the night view outside the floor-to-ceiling window, extending out of a wooden plank, similar to the deck of the cabin, there are almost ten meters long, in front of a river that can not be seen, there are fishing lanterns lit on it, there are hundreds, so look at the past fiery red, like the sunrise river flowers.

The tall buildings across the river were so blurred by the night fog that I couldn't feel the wind, but I seemed to be able to see it.

Master He brought down a man from the second floor, he was wearing glasses and elegant, walked up to Mr. Ji and bowed to him, I glanced at the sign he was wearing on his chest, it was the manager of this restaurant.

Mr. Ji did not accept the menu handed by him, but directly reported the two Western dishes I told him at home, ordered a double and a fruit platter, and he was very careful to tell the manager to peel the crab meat and cook it in the oyster shell, so as not to make it inconvenient for me to eat, and I also need to peel the meat.

After the manager recorded the details, he looked at me thoughtfully, he seemed to be recognizing my appearance to see if I had seen it before, he noticed that I was unfamiliar, and smiled apologetically at me, "Please wait for half an hour." ”

I thought of Mr. Ji ordering double portions, and I asked him, "Don't you have a regular meal time, and you usually don't eat at this point." ”

He took the corner of the square handkerchief and tucked it into his neck and spread it on his chest, "Make an exception tonight, and eat less with you." ”

I smiled and said, "Then I am flattered, you are my big creditor, and I am supposed to accompany you." ”

After all the food was on the table, he went outside to answer the phone, and he stood on the deck outside the glass window, looking back at every move in the restaurant, always on guard against someone with bad intentions approaching Mr. Ji to threaten his safety.

Mr. Ji hated talking about others in the first half of the meal, and he would not say a few words until he was close to eating, so I didn't bother him without interest, I looked around while eating, and the location here is better, so I can see every corner of the entire floor. Now after the meal, there are not many people, scattered in the southeast and northwest, the waiters are very straight standing in their respective areas waiting for service, I saw one of the tables, suddenly stunned, there are only two women at the table, one is away from me, look at the temperament should be in the night market, the rouge smell is very strong, the girl sitting opposite her is facing me, hot wavy curls, wiping Bao's colored lips, she is about to light a cigarette for herself, probably aware that someone is watching, she also watched over, she saw my instant, the cigarette in her hand fell in response.

It was Chen Susu, the sister who was bumped into by me and Boss Jin in the office that day.

I pursed my lips, not missing a hint of a change in expression on her face, and she panicked.

After she was sure that I was not hallucinating, she nodded at me and pointed in the direction of the bathroom quietly, I understood, I put down my knife and fork and said to Mr. Ji, "I'll wash my hands." Nails stained with sauce. ”

He didn't lift his eyelids, and let out a mum in his throat, and very gracefully poured a small piece of foie gras into his mouth.

Su Su and I went into the bathroom one after the other, she pushed me from behind before I could fully stand still, she came in and looked left and right at the door, I was confused by her nervousness, I smiled and said What's wrong, could it be that I want to make a drug connection.

She closed the door and locked it, and she turned to look at me with a serious and silent expression, and I saw up close that she had put on such a bright makeup, more seductive and sharp than Xi Qing's fox makeup, and I could hardly even remember her original delicate appearance from the heavy fat powder.

Su Su opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know how to speak, she gritted her teeth and rushed to the front of the pool, leaned down and turned on the faucet, and put her whole face under the water, until even her hair was wet, she unscrewed the switch and stood up, I realized what she was going to tell me, I silently leaned against a wall, crossed my arms and waited for her to speak, she stood there for a long time, and suddenly knelt down towards me, I thought of a lot of opening statements, but I didn't expect this, I went to help her, she brushed my arm away and said to me, "Sister Feng, Originally, I was in the most difficult situation, you helped me, and I haven't paid back the money until now, I always remember this kindness, you may think I forgot, you didn't take it seriously, but I haven't forgotten. ”

As she spoke, she took off a ring from her finger, it was a pink diamond, about a carat, and she held it in both hands and handed it to me, "I don't have any cash with me, I'll give you this and repay the money you borrowed from me before." ”

I really didn't expect that she, a poor girl in the middle of nowhere, would be able to climb step by step to today, and she would wear gold and silver jewelry. I took the ring, held it in my hand and looked at it for a while, I sincerely felt that things were wrong, I was so miserable that I even ate chicken legs I threw into the bowl for her, and now I also hit me in the face with the ring.

I smiled and said, "It's so good-looking, the style is good, the diamond is good, and at a glance, I know that Boss Jin loves you very much, I'm afraid it's worth a lot of money." ”

The smile on my face faded for a moment, and I threw the ring in her face, hitting the bridge of her nose, and she instinctively turned her head to dodge, and the ring bounced into a corner after being hit, and the light refracted on it, but I felt extremely dark.

"Chen Susu, I don't want the money you let those old men in exchange. You can save yourself for medical treatment. ”

After I finished speaking, I turned around to leave, she suddenly crawled over from the ground and hugged my legs, she looked up at me with tears streaming down her face, "Sister Feng!" I can't help it, I really can't help it! I don't want to live this life anymore, I've had enough..."

I heard her miserable cries, and my hand on the lock tightened.

She spoke in fits and pieces about her grief and helplessness, and she told me that it was her deliberate choice, and that she wanted to get ahead.

I asked her if there was only one way to get ahead and be a little wife for a man.

She said, "No, there are many of them, but there is only this one in front of me, I can't climb Director Guo, and I don't have your good luck, I can have Mr. Ji to redeem myself and get out of the sea of suffering, I jumped into this fire pit, I can only be burned by the flames, I want to make money, I want to make everyone envious, so that all the people who scold me hillbillies can see with their own eyes how good I am." I'm in this big city, I can't fight my father, and I don't have a network background, I have to rely on myself for everything, I want to take shortcuts, I want to climb to the sky in one step, struggle for a few years less, and consume less youth. Sister Feng, tell me, apart from currying favor with Boss Jin, do I have a better way? ”

She didn't, our group of women, know very well that they can't stay in the casino for a long time, when they have to eat anything, planning for themselves is the most basic rule of survival, and in the end there are only two endings waiting for us, one is to make enough money to launder themselves, turn themselves into good women, marry an honest man and live a plain life, thinking of that extravagant past, maybe nostalgic, but in the end I still stroked the wrinkles at the corners of my eyes and smiled. There is also Su Su and Xi Qing, as well as the choice of most of the sisters in this circle, it is very risky, but it is used to a life of greed and expansion, who can really jump out of the play and forget his former corner, and be content to spend decades of silence without the slightest wave. There are thousands of troops on this road, but the road is very narrow, and those who are not well squeezed will fall down and fall into the river and drown.

I know, I know better than anyone else.

I lowered my head to look at Su Su, she was still kneeling, her valuable dress soaked in water stains on the ground, I said, "If people drink water, they know whether they are warm or cold, and others have no right to care about their own choice, just feel happy, don't regret it, don't complain, do it yourself." ”

I didn't look back at her, I just unscrewed the lock and pulled the door out of the bathroom, until I turned out of the corridor, Su Su didn't come out of it, I seemed to hear sobbing, it was her unwilling to bow to poverty, and she regretted why she was the way she was.

The Abyss Jin Ge Iron Horse was originally a bet, how many people lost all their money after the most precious chips in their lives, and how many people just flopped lightly, but won the gold silk and laughed to the end.

Scenes of splendid time, is it really beautiful, and who can see through the deceit and cruelty and dirtiness behind it.

I stood there and closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and when I opened it again, I returned to the original blandness, as if I had never met anyone, I walked back to the front hall and sat opposite Mr. Ji, he was already full, put down the knife and fork and patiently ate the fruit, his fingertips were dexterously peeling the skin of a huge red grape fruit, he inadvertently raised his eyes to see my face stiff, asked me if I was uncomfortable, I said no, the bathroom is a little hot.

He placed the peeled red grapes on the spoon on my plate, "Lying will choke." ”

I didn't hear clearly, and ahhhh ”

He wiped his hands with a square handkerchief, "Do you like to deceive?" ”

I stuffed the red grapes into my mouth, chewing to cover up my heart weakness, Mr. Ji poured half a glass of red wine, He Tang Master walked in from the outside at this time, he held the mobile phone with the screen not dimmed, it showed that the call was over, he made a really long call, he bowed down in Mr. Ji's ear and said, "You help Miss Feng embarrass Mrs. Ma, Mr. Ma knows, now in Jinyuan, is making a big scene." My subordinates can't hold back, so please come over and come forward as soon as possible. ”
