CHAPTER XVI
Song Zhu didn't see Xie Jue after all, and left after almost cleaning up the house.
Song's father and Song's mother can't come back for the time being during the winter vacation, and she doesn't plan to move the huge amount of money she paid. After all, it is not easy for the old couple to make money, and they can save the money just in case, and the two of them have something to use urgently.
After thinking about it for a long time, Song Zhu decided to do a small part-time job during the winter vacation.
[Warm little hot pot] is two blocks away from their neighborhood, on the edge of the most commercially prosperous area of City C.
Song Zhu rode his bicycle for most of the day before he found such a hot pot restaurant that was closer to home and recruited student workers.
The scale of the hot pot restaurant is not large, and the decoration is relatively simple. I don't know if it's because of the location or what, but there aren't many customers who come to eat. When Song Zhu arrived with the leaflet, the store was deserted.
"Hello, I want to apply for a winter vacation job in our store......" Song Zhu exhaled lightly and said very calmly.
Although the original book did not write anything about the original owner's winter vacation work, Song Zhu did not remember that there was such a hot pot restaurant. But she didn't do much before wearing books on work-study programs, and she was relatively proficient in comparison.
"How old are you?" The proprietress sat on the counter and held her hand in front of her eyes, bent her fingers, carefully admiring her freshly made manicure, and glanced at Song Zhu casually.
"It's just over sixteen, seventeen."
To be precise, she is now twenty-seven, and she will be twenty-eight after the New Year.
Song Zhu put on a dark red knitted sweater, her hair was casually draped, her snow-white skin was as smooth and translucent as white jade, and the girl stood there so obediently, making people feel pleasing when they looked at it.
It was a casual glance, but the proprietress changed a little, and her tone was a little disdainful: "It's just sixteen!" Can you endure hardship? We don't want flowers in the greenhouse, and we can't afford to hire student workers who put up princess shelves. ”
The proprietress wore a thick foundation on her face and painted purple and red makeup. I can't tell how old I am, but I know that I'm no longer young.
"Me." Song Zhu paused, and just as he wanted to say something, he saw a man walking down from the corner of the stairs on the second floor.
The man was flat-headed, in his thirties, and looked kind: "What's wrong?"
"I'd like to apply for a part-time job at our store. I can endure hardships, and I can serve dishes and wash dishes. Seeing that the boss came out, Song Zhu slowed down his voice and explained.
It seems that the proprietress does not welcome her, and if the boss refuses her, she will have to find it again.
I just saw that there is a part-time job in their community to recruit tutors, but with Song Zhu's reputation in the neighborhood, it is estimated that no one will feel at ease to hand over the child to her.
Song Zhu was ready to be rejected, but the boss looked at her and smiled: "Then you can start tomorrow!" The probationary period is three days, forty yuan per hour. Working hours are from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. every day. ”
Song Zhu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly thanked the boss.
The proprietress sat aside, glanced at Song Zhu with some dissatisfaction, wanted to say something and swallowed it back, got up and hugged the man and rubbed it on his arm: "Brother Qiang."
Song Zhu has no interest in guessing what the relationship between the boss and the boss is, she is only happy that she has successfully found a part-time job.
After getting familiar with the content of the work in the store for a while, and cleaning for a while, it was already dark when Song Zhu left the store.
Fortunately, the hot pot restaurant is not very far from home, but when Song Zhu rode to the corner, he suddenly found that someone was sitting next to the pile of debris on the inside of the corner.
Song Zhu hurriedly flashed his grip on the handlebar, and slammed on the brakes, but he still couldn't control the car, and even the people and the car fell to the ground, and he was smashed by the head of the bicycle.
"Ahh With a soft snort, the girl rubbed her arm in pain. Fortunately, it's almost winter, and it's thicker, and if it's summer, it's going to break the skin.
Standing up and patting the dust on his body, Song Zhu reacted and looked at the person who suddenly appeared: "Are you okay, I'm ......"
But he paused when he met the familiar and unfamiliar face.
It was still that angular face, even with his eyes closed, Song Zhu could still feel the situation and restlessness between the young man's eyebrows.
The young man's face was blue and purple, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding, which was not an exaggeration to describe it as blurred flesh and blood.
"Xie Jue?" Just before Song Zhu could react, a noisy footsteps and a man's scolding approached this side.
"Damn, that's bad luck, where did that bastard go? If he calls the police, we're all going to be doomed! ”
"Don't let Lao Tzu find him! Find and see if he has a few dog lives for him to do. ”
"It looks like I shouldn't be able to run far, after all, I've been beaten half to death."
Hearing the shouting and footsteps getting closer and closer, Song Zhu only felt that his temples were protruding. Song Zhu chuckled in his heart, and tried to drag up the person on the ground, but unfortunately he couldn't pull it up for a long time.
In a panic, he hurriedly covered a bunch of miscellaneous items back on Xie Jue's face, and stood aside to help the car.
After all, in her previous life, she was a leader in biological research, what kind of wind and waves she hadn't seen?
As soon as Song Zhu wanted to pick up the car, six or seven black-clothed men came. Song Zhu's heart instantly tugged.
A few people passed by quickly, and they just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but they didn't expect the group of people to run back again.
"Beauty, did you see someone passing by here just now? The kind like a mad dog? No, it should be said that it is a mourning dog hahaha. The man in the black leather coat wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed a little wickedly.
Several of the other men were also panting and walking towards this side with their hands on their hips.
Song Zhu subconsciously wanted to see Xie Jue with a little weakness, but he couldn't help it, afraid of leaking a flaw.
Tilted his head, pretending to be surprised: "Are you talking about the man just now?" He's running over there! It's all to blame for him knocking over the trash can and causing me to fall. ”
The girl's cheeks bulged, as if her face was flushed from anger, and it didn't look like she was lying.
The men glanced at each other and ran away like a busy wind.
Song Zhu settled down, and after a few people ran away, he pulled Xie Jue out of the garbage heap again.
Looking at Xie Jue's physique, which was more than seven meters tall, Song Zhu instantly made a difficulty.
Looking around, this section of the road was relatively remote, and there were no people, only the dim street lamps on the side of the road emitted a yellowish glow, and the garbage can that had fallen at his feet.
After wasting all his strength, Song Zhu finally brought Xie Jue home.
Slumped on the sofa, Song Zhu only felt a burst of doubt about life.
It is not without reason that Xie Jue blackened in the late stage of the original book.
Song Zhu couldn't imagine what kind of person Xie Jue's mother was, just thinking of Xie Jue's persistence in Ruan Yunxi, and even the perverted psychology of "if you can't get it, you will destroy it" in the later stage, you can know how much he longs for care.
In such a cold weather, I was beaten until my flesh was blurred and thrown into the trash......
Song Zhu exhaled lightly, only to feel that his throat felt like a ball of cotton.
