It was a dusk evening that had just been dyed by the sunset, and I was dozing with boredom, staring at the glass of water on the counter......

"Yu Hang, I'm here to replace you as the manager of the hostel."

In the drowsiness, I was excited, took my eyes away from the ups and downs of the tea leaves, looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of me, and did not turn a corner for a while, what does it mean to replace?

This youth hostel that can't be described in a bleak way is called "Youtu", and I am the manager of the hostel.

I majored in tourism management in college, and I came here three years ago, shortly after graduating, and at that time, Gou Yongqiang liked my executive and management skills, so he promoted me to store manager.

This courtyard-style youth hostel, because of its unique atmosphere, retro decoration, just opened to attract a lot of tourists, but a year later, because of the company's business crisis, I was transferred back to the headquarters, anxious, the boss Gou Yongqiang neglected to pay attention to the "Youtu Youth Hostel", the turnover here has been declining year by year, until the beginning of this spring when I took over, has incurred a loss, which is a terrible precursor.

Lao Gou once tried to save it, but the rise of comfortable and comfortable express hotels around it made it gradually forgotten, and although he planned a few decent activities, the income and expenditure were unbalanced, and Lao Gou was reluctant to invest any more money.

So, Lao Gou had a crooked mind and wanted to sell the hostel.

In the past three months, he has given several orders, but I have not carried them out, and now he has sent a woman who came up and made such a sentence, which makes me even more sure that he must have wanted to sell it after taking over from me, which is terrible......

I was furious in my heart, but I laughed out loud, I really think it's ridiculous, in the past seven or eight days, the first person to walk into this broken shop actually came to replace my position?

The woman in front of me who was carrying a bulky suitcase, dressed casually, but was very brilliant, and had a very clean face, gave me a good impression just by looking at her appearance, but her speech was too unreliable.

I tried my best to be patient and said, "Girl, Lao Gou knows that no one is staying in the store, so he sent you to be funny, right?" ”

The woman ignored my words, took out the documents in her handbag, threw them on the table, and said in an extremely calm tone: "Do you think I am joking? ”

I took the document signed by Lao Gou, and he actually asked this woman named Li Shi to directly replace my position as store manager, and he was immediately not calm, and his fingers knocked on the counter: "This Lao Gou is also fucking shameless, and he will beat Lao Tzu into a grandson with one move, which is enough!" ”

She replied to me without a smile: "As long as you are still standing on the counter for a moment, you represent the image of "Youtu Youth Hostel", please pay attention to your quality. ”

I've been living enough these days, I just finished negotiating with Lao Gou three days ago, although his attitude was worse, but he finally agreed to come up with a solution, and now this is the solution?

I crumpled the documents into a ball, threw them into the trash can with contempt, and said angrily: "Quality, quality, who are you, just come and talk to me about quality!" ”

"Rude!"

"If you think I'm rude, you go back and tell Lao Gou not to shrink his head and be a grandson, and let him personally put this personnel transfer document in front of me, otherwise I won't recognize it."

"He's on a business trip and won't come over."

"Don't you dare to come?"

"You ......"

"What are you, you go quickly, where to go back and forth!"

This woman named Li Shi was choked by my anger, but she still had a stubborn persistence, pointed to the door and said, "You go out for me, you are the ......one who should go out"

I was stunned for a moment, and finally understood why Lao Gou would let a woman replace me. If it was a * here and I was theorizing at the moment, I would have let him swim out on his stomach...... From this point of view, Lao Gou is iron-hearted this time, and in just a few minutes of confrontation, I feel that this woman is really not an ordinary character, and she wants me to sweep the floor and go out when she first comes.

Li Shi looked at me with an indifferent expression, but I couldn't understand what was hidden under her expression.

To tell the truth, Lao Gou must have put a lot of effort into finding such a woman to deal with me, putting aside his personality, this Li Shi is indeed a woman who is so beautiful that people will never forget, it is the kind of unearthly beauty, the indescribably beautiful eyes, the tall and delicate nose, and the look is full of sharpness, such a first-class temperament woman, I have seen it for the first time!

In the stalemate, time is just consuming minute by minute, and I am indifferent.

Li Shi squatted down, picked up the crumpled documents from the trash can, and carefully ironed them, she "exhaled" softly, slowly stood up, turned around and went out.

I was also in a bad mood, staring at the white suitcase standing alone at the counter in front of me, and I was fascinated...... There are a few dolls of different shapes hanging on the zipper buckle of the box, which is full of childlike fun, but it is difficult for me to connect Li Shi, who turned out, with the word innocence, because her inadvertently revealed temperament makes me feel that this person is not so simple......

……

The reason why I desperately want to keep this youth hostel, and even use two-thirds of my salary to plug the financial loopholes of this unprofitable youth hostel, is actually selfish, not to mention that Lao Gou promised me not to dispose of it easily, and more importantly: I hope that my younger sister, who has little time, can live here for a period of time every summer in her lifetime.

No one who comes to buy this youth hostel will want to use this land as a hostel again, the remote location here determines that it can only lose money, maybe it will be a foot bath shop, a restaurant, or even a hair salon in the future......

I was sleepy, ready to deal with Li Shi who could come back at any time, her presence made me feel like I was on pins and needles, I knew that Lao Gou would not fire me easily, because I had just finished writing the implementation plan for the new year of the headquarters "Youtu Travel Agency", even if he swept me out of the house at the moment, I had to weigh the problems that might arise at any time in the implementation of the plan......

The dolls on the white suitcase all had exaggerated expressions, and their mouths were wide open because of the smile, and the more I looked at it, the more angry I became, and I directly lifted the box and threw it out the door.

……

In the frustration, I lit a cigarette and leaned against the guardrail by the river in front of my door, the bustling city opposite seemed to isolate the storefront behind me, and in those neon glimmering glare lights, all I could do was be silent in perseverance.

The night in Xi'an in May is still cold, and in the past six months, I have lived in a hopeless situation, and my college classmates envy me for being the store manager, but I am not as glamorous as the bright neon opposite, but I am as lonely and helpless as the silent alien hostel in the city behind me......

In the spicy smoke, before I finished a cigarette, Li Shi, who had finished buying items from the shopping mall opposite, jumped into my sight. I was in the darkness, but she walked under the well-lit neon; I was overstretched and depressed, but she looked so glamorous......

……

After a while, she crossed the road with some daily necessities, walked calmly in front of me, and said to me unceremoniously: "I have given you time to prepare, why haven't you left yet?" ”

I smiled and said, "Mingren doesn't say secret words, Lao Gou asked you to take over the hostel, and he plans to sell it, right?" ”

"That's for later, so you don't have to worry about it."

I threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on my tiptoes, and said angrily, "I'm really going to sell it!" ”

Li Shi looked at me with beautiful eyes, and was dumbfounded by my face turning faster than turning a book.

Looking at the hard-hearted Li Shi, I once again understood Lao Gou's old scheming, he is using this woman, step by step, to empty my rights, and go around in such a big circle, just to sell the youth hostel.

The pedestrians around looked at me and Li Shi, she was a little disdainful and stuck with me, looked down at her suitcase, but never argued with me again, and after lifting the box with a little effort, she crossed the threshold and walked towards the store by herself.

This woman is simply stubborn...... I still don't believe in this evil, a few people rushed to her quickly, stretched out their hands to block her way, and gritted their teeth and hearted: If you have to make a mess today, then come!
