Chapter 4: The Expectation of the Heart
More than 20 minutes later, Nangong Yuchen bent over and stopped on a bustling street, where there are many high-rise buildings, red lights, brilliant lights and soft night, echoing each other, extremely prosperous. His gaze through the tide of people coming and going, and finally stopped at a delicate café directly in front of him, he gasped and stammered, "It's still late!" ”
"Cafe!"
That's where he came in a hurry, and that's where he went to work part-time every night.
No way, he doesn't have any financial resources, so he has to work, not only for his own life, but also for his sister!
Nangong Yuchen pushed open the delicate wooden door with apprehension and walked in. It was already 20:13, and he was thirteen minutes late.
As he walked into the café, the interior scene was all reflected in his sight.
The lights in the house are not bright, and dozens of square-sized cafes are neatly arranged with three rows of tables and chairs, each of different shapes. The ceiling of the roof is covered with colorful lights, and the crystal chandelier in the center gives the café a unique aesthetic. At the same time, as soon as you enter here, there is a warm and peaceful feeling.
At this time, business is okay, and half of the guests who have arrived in the interior of the café have been filled.
"Nangong, you're late today!"
As soon as Nangong Yuchen came in, a reproachful female voice came from the bar.
This is a woman who looks to be forty years old, with long burgundy hair that is slightly curly and draped down, looking a little tired, she has a nice melon seed face, but her facial features are not pretty, her skin is pale, there are no wrinkles, and she is obviously very well maintained.
"The hostess! Sorry I'm late! Nangong Yuchen walked up with an apologetic face.
At this moment, the proprietress in the bar suddenly saw the injury on his face and couldn't help but be surprised: "Huh? Nangong, what's going on on your face? Got into a fight with someone? ”
"No... No, I just accidentally fell! Nangong Yuchen hurriedly waved his hand to explain.
"Aren't you being bullied?" The proprietress asked suspiciously.
"Uh-huh!"
Seeing that he insisted on denying it, the seriousness on the boss's face disappeared, and she smiled instead: "Forget it, for the sake of you coming to work even if you are injured, I will let you be late this time, quickly change your clothes and go to Xia Yue, Chen Hao to help!" ”
"Thank you, hostess!"
Nangong Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately walked into the changing room in the bar, and after changing into work clothes, he walked out and returned to the work area, and the other two employees who the boss said were packing up the cups together.
"Huh? Xiao Chenchen, what's going on with your face? Bullied? ”
This is a pretty girl in her twenties, her skin is white and delicate, and her beautiful little face makes people feel that they can pinch water. A cute maid outfit added to her beauty, and she was looking at Nangong Yuchen with a worried face at this time.
"Oh! Sister Yue is not, I accidentally fell myself..."
"Really?" Xia Yue was a little unconvinced, and then patted Nangong on the shoulder and continued: "Xiao Chenchen, if someone bullies you, just tell your sister, I will definitely help you get angry!" ”
Looking at the other party's serious face, Nangong Yuchen's heart warmed, this kind of sincere concern, he hadn't felt it for a long time, and then nodded his head and said, "Eh...... Good! ”
The tall and thin young man named Chen Hao next to him took over the topic, only to hear him say directly: "Then you say, who bullied you, Xia Yue and I directly helped you solve him tonight!" ”
"Uh..."Hearing this, Nangong Yuchen couldn't cry or laugh a little, he didn't expect Chen Hao, who was polite and polite, to say this, and couldn't help but hurriedly waved his hand and said: "... There really is no one bullying me! ”
At this time, a guest suddenly said, "Waiter, help me add a cup of coffee!" ”
Nangong Yuchen hurriedly walked up, for Xia Yue and Chen Hao's words, he only cared about them, and didn't take them seriously!
And there are only four people in this café counting the proprietress of this café, maybe because of the small bar, Nangong Yuchen and Xia Yue, and Chen Hao have a good relationship, plus there is no conflict of interest, so he likes it very much.
Especially this kind of faint and warm atmosphere made Nangong Yuchen very infatuated, just like the former home in his heart... The same!
Before I knew it, after nine o'clock, customers began to come in one after another, which made the whole café busy.
"Waiter, help me get another cup of coffee!"
"Waiter, didn't my coffee say with some sugar? Why didn't you put it? ”
"The waiter pays!"
……
The three of them were a little dizzy, although they were very tired, but the time from nine to ten o'clock was also the most fulfilling.
After cleaning up the empty seat cups, Nangong Yuchen took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, and found that it was already more than ten o'clock, and he could get off work in a while, of course, the main reason for him to look at the time was because today was the day when the salary was paid at the end of the month.
He's been looking forward to it for a long time!
At this moment, there was another table of guests inside, and Nangong Yuchen stepped forward and smiled: "Go slowly, welcome to come next time!" "Then we started cleaning up.
"Hey, have you heard? A few days ago, Mu Feng challenged Cheng Tianyou! This was the voice of a man sitting next to him, who seemed to be deliberately keeping his voice down, not wanting to be heard.
"Who is Shepherd? He dares to challenge Cheng Tianyou? I remember that Cheng Tianyou has broken through the first order for several years! But I haven't heard of Mufeng! It was another man who replied, his voice slightly high-pitched.
"You don't even know that? Didn't there be an unjust case five years ago? At that time, after a young girl was **, the Investigation Bureau couldn't manage it, and finally went to make trouble, but it led to murder, and she committed suicide by jumping off the building for no reason! I heard from the inside that the ** prisoner is Cheng Tianyou, and he relied on his relationship with the Lu family to suppress this matter......"
"Hey, among the three major families, the Mu family is the most admirable, Mu Xiyan not only helped the city resist the demon beasts, but also led the family mecha warriors to other cities to support more than half a year ago, and now they have not returned! And Shangguan is the mayor of Ruxia City, so it's hard to say much, but Lu has to say that it's the worst! The man with a slightly sharp voice seemed to be angry, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became: "Every time a demon beast attacks, they always have many excuses to prevaricate and support, and most of the year ago, together with Mu Xiyan, he led the family mecha warriors to the outside city to support, but the Lu clan came back in the second month, which is really ridiculous!" Now it seems that the Lu family is all scum! ”
"Shhhh Be quiet! ”
The man also knew that he was too excited, so he quickly lowered his voice and asked, "Where are they challenged?" I'm going to take a look, cheer for Mu Feng then, and hope he can chop up Cheng Tianyou's scum! ”
"Don't think about it, I don't know about this!"
Nangong Yuchen was cleaning up on the side, and when he heard this conversation between the two, his body suddenly stiffened.
"The Lu family!" He silently recited the name of the family, but in the next moment, the killing intent in his heart skyrocketed, and his handsome face became hideous.
It's they who destroy their own home, put both their parents in jail, and even ... Snow is all ... Leave yourself!
One day, I will destroy it all with my own hands!
"Xiao Chenchen, what are you doing here, hurry up and come over to help!" Because it was time to close, the guests had basically cleared the venue, Xia Yue and Chen Hao were very busy, and seeing Nangong Yuchen standing there without moving, they couldn't help but shout softly.
"Oh, here it is!"
Nangong Yuchen took a few deep breaths, and after trying his best to suppress the hatred in his heart, he quickly finished cleaning up the cups and utensils in his hand and went over to help.
Another half an hour passed, and at eleven o'clock, the three of them had cleaned all the hygiene and cups in the café, and stood side by side outside the bar, looking at the proprietress opposite.
"No, this is your three little guys, last month's salary, change your clothes and go back quickly!"
The proprietress took out three folded envelopes from her bag and handed them over to each other.
"Thank you, hostess!"
……
"100,200,300......" Nangong Yuchen sat on the motorized rail car home, counting his salary.
“3000!”
After being sure, a rare smile appeared on his handsome face, and the cracked corners of his mouth showed white teeth, and he said to himself: "I can finally see you tomorrow!" ”
That's what he's been looking forward to for a long time.
