Chapter 6 In the name of sin
Many times, the measure of how successful a person is often depends on how much people are jealous of them.
——— inscription
At dusk, the remnant sun is like blood.
Ancheng, West Gate, crowds of people, one after another.
There are grocery stores with the occasional shouting, small hair salons with flashing neon lights, fruit stalls with carts, and big men huddled together playing cards.
This is a scenery unique to the West Gate.
Under the remnant sun, a slender figure appeared at the corner of the street.
It was a delicate and immaculate face.
She has red lips and is delicate; Two bent eyebrows, like willows and moons; Under the willow moon, there are a pair of smart big eyes, like two stars, hiding endless past.
She doesn't wear powder, she doesn't wear pearls, a pair of jeans, a light yellow coat, three thousand green silks like a waterfall, casually draped over her shoulders, such a simple dress, but her demeanor is fully revealed.
This is a naturally beautiful woman, three points delicate, three points charming, four points strong and unyielding.
As soon as it appeared at the corner of the street, it was like an immortal descending on the earth, making the air feel new.
At this point, the whole world seemed to stand still.
The shouting of the grocery store stopped, the hair salon boy put away the scissors, the fruit stall lady put down the heavy scales, and even the group of big men who memorized the cards suddenly discarded the cards in their hands.
Everyone looked sideways.
"Huh? Miss Chu Ling is here! ”
"Hello everyone!" Her red lips twitched as she spoke softly, and the air seemed to begin to flow again.
"Miss Chu Ling, I have everything here, pick one, there is always something you can use;"
"Miss Chu Ling, I just designed a new hairstyle, help with reference, what do you think?"
"Girl, this apple just came in, come, take a pound to taste, you are tired from work, you have to pay attention to your body!"
"Girl, we are bored, promise not to play cards again, you see, hehe, there is no way, we have not worked all day!"
"I still have something to do today, when I have to be free, I'll come again!" As she spoke, her eyes turned and fell on the group of big men, "It's not early, you guys go home first, I'll help you think of a way tomorrow!" You can't gamble anymore! ”
"Thank you, Miss Chu Ling, you have to be good!"
"Yes, she was born so beautiful, she is so kind, such a good girl, God will bless her!"
She nodded lightly and took a step, and her every move was full of charm.
Passing through the chaotic crowd, she headed for the east gate.
Until her figure disappeared at the West Gate, the street became noisy again and returned to its original state.
She came to a crossroads.
In front, there is the East Gate, the center of Ancheng City.
The east gate and the west gate are separated by each other, but they are like two worlds, one side is dirty and the other is prosperous.
At this moment, she stood between the two places.
Under the remnant sun, she stared at her shadow, which stretched longer and longer, but she never moved.
"To go, or not to go?"
At the crossroads, she looked at a tall building opposite, hesitating.
It is a hotel, called Cheonpo, and it is the only five-star hotel in Anseong.
"Go ahead, it's no big deal!" After a while, she made a decision.
Just as she was about to take a step, her phone rang.
"Huh?" She picked up her mobile phone, saw the name of the caller, frowned slightly, and pressed the answer button, "Doctor Liu, hello, how is my grandma?" ”
"Xiao Chu, listen to me, your aunt ......" On the phone, a man's voice came, very heavy.
"What? Is it getting worse again? Didn't you say it was getting better last week? Also, I only called 200,000 half a month ago, and it was gone so soon? ”
She bit her lower lip lightly, and her face turned pale as she spoke.
"Your grandma uses imported medicines, which are very expensive!"
On the other end of the phone, Dr. Liu said, "Also, you have to take some time to come over, after all, no matter how good the nursing care is, it is not as good as your own relatives, so be it, you can call the money quickly!" ”
"Grandma......" She slowly put down her phone, depressed.
The breeze floated, blowing her long hair, and she stood alone, in the wind, delicate and helpless.
At this time, in the distant sky, a dark cloud shrouded it, and the crumbling remnant sun disappeared into the vast mountains.
"Grandma said that you always have to rely on yourself to be a man! Will survive! Suddenly, her eyes flashed, and she looked up.
Gathering her clothes, she stepped away and headed straight across the street.
"Three nine-room rooms?" When she came to the Skyfall Hotel, she just paused for a moment and walked into the elevator.
Here, she is familiar with it and has been here many times.
After a while, she walked to the door of the private room, and when she was about to push the door open, a familiar voice came from the room.
"Sister Lan, look, you invited everyone to come and get together, all of us sisters have arrived, after so long, she Chu Ling hasn't come yet, why wait? I really think I'm a daughter, what kind of shelf! ”
"That's it, lest she come here and stolen it, she is now in the noble hall, what kind of show is she doing on the surface, but what kind of place is it, who doesn't know? I don't know how many men have slept! ”
"I heard that she lives in Simon, and there is a lot of stolen money over there, and she still mingles with those people, it's really like ......"
"You don't know, she made a lot of money in the noble hall, Mr. Lan was very good to her, the appearance fee was tens of thousands of dollars a day, and it was rumored that someone spent one million to buy her for one night, but at that time, she had a man, and she seemed to have refused......"
"Waiting for the price to sell, it's not a clever means, you see, isn't she single now? Just find an excuse to dump that man, and now he may earn more......"
"The more you earn, the dirtier your body becomes, maybe all the men in Simon will ...... with her"
"Enough! It's all classmates, gossiping behind other people's backs, is it interesting? At this moment, a low cheer interrupted everyone's discussion.
"What Sister Lan said is, let's get down to business, I heard that Sister Lan's family has opened a coal mine in Shuicheng again, if you need anything, remember to inform your little sister!"
"Yes, Sister Lan, we are sisters from high school, so take care of us!"
……
At the door, Chu Ling's face was expressionless, listening to the voice coming from the room, the hand that was about to push the door froze in mid-air, not moving for a long time.
At this time, the mood is extremely chaotic.
These are good sisters in the past, she asked herself if she had done anything to hurt them, but everyone had something, and she did her best.
What made them do this to her?
Don't go to this kind of party!
Chu Ling sighed in his heart, ready to turn around, but he couldn't help but shake his head.
What is this? Coming to the door and leaving?
I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I leave?
Since Sister Lan invited her, let's go in with dignity, what are you afraid of?
Taking a deep breath, a reluctant smile appeared on her face, and she pushed the door in.
In the room, the discussion stopped abruptly.
Everyone's eyes fell on her.
Just when everyone was embarrassed, one of them, dignified and elegant, stood up.
"Ling'er is here, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time, come quickly, sit next to me!" Wu Xinlan smiled and spoke.
"Thank you, Sister Lan!" Chu Ling's gaze swept from every position, everyone's expressions were in their eyes, and after a moment of silence, she walked to Wu Xinlan's side.
"Quick, sit down, we sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a good chat today!" Wu Xinlan greeted.
"No!" Chu Ling shook his head.
In the midst of many puzzled eyes, she poured three glasses of wine in a row.
"Sister Lan, I respect you!" As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Ling raised his wine glass and drank it all.
One drink is over, and another glass is served. After drinking three times in a row, Chu Ling's face also turned red.
"Ling'er, what are you?" Wu Xinlan was puzzled.
Chu Ling smiled and said nothing.
Here, she didn't want to say more.
Three glasses of wine, one is an invitation to Wu Xinlan, two is to speak for himself, and three is to respect his smile.
Although Wu Xinlan did a remarkable job and was as close to her as before, she still felt alienated and contemptive.
Really, she felt it.
has been in the noble hall for so long, three religions and nine streams, who has she never dealt with? Although the information in Wu Xinlan's eyes flashed away, it couldn't escape her eyes.
Despite this, she still had to toast three glasses of wine, because it was not easy for Wu Xinlan to do this.
"Sister Xinlan, you sit, I still have to go to work, so I'll leave first!" Chu Ling greeted, didn't look at the others, turned around and walked out the door.
"Ling'er, why don't you come and leave, it's rare for everyone to be together!" Wu Xinlan shouted.
"What are you pretending to be, it's like you're making it very noble! Everyone knows what kind of person they are! The piercing voice reached Chu Ling's ears again.
She paused slightly, didn't look back, and walked out of the room.
"Whew!" Walking through the dark corridor, at the elevator door, Chu Ling squatted down, covered his heart, and took a deep breath again.
"What the hell am I doing wrong? Do you want you to hate me like that? ”
Her eyes were red.
"Ling'er, wait a minute!" At this moment, Wu Xinlan chased after her and helped Chu Ling up.
"You heard what they said just now!" Wu Xinlan smiled bitterly, "Don't worry about it, they are all classmates, after all, you work in that kind of place, it's normal to have gossip, just know it in your own heart!" ”
Chu Ling raised his head and looked at Wu Xinlan with a complicated gaze.
You're a good person, talking at both ends, but I'm not a human being?
"I have to support myself, I have to earn money to treat my grandma!"
Chu Ling's voice was very soft, but it was very powerful, "The money I earn, I don't steal or rob, it's above board, there's nothing to be ashamed of!" ”
"I know!" Wu Xinlan nodded and said, "They've always been like that, these sisters, my favorite is still you, in the class, you are the best, the most beautiful, talented, everyone likes you......"
Chu Ling was silent.
"But!" Wu Xinlan said, "In this world, how many people like you, how many people hate you, it's not so much hate, it's better to say jealousy, because you can do what they want to do but can't, the better you do, the more others hate you...... They hate you in the noble hall, they can't get in if they want to, so don't think about it! ”
"I know, thank you, Sister Xinlan!" Chu Ling nodded.
"Then go back and sit down!" Wu Xinlan invited again, "It's all sisters, if you talk about it, it's okay, Ling'er is not a person with a small belly!" ”
"No!" Chu Ling shook his head, "There is a big man coming tonight, Mr. Lan explained, I have to go!" ”
"Actually, I can help you with your grandma's business!" Wu Xinlan said with a smile.
"I can do it myself!" Chu Ling gently hugged Wu Xinlan, "The elevator is here, you go back, otherwise, they will count me down again!" ”
After saying that, Chu Ling walked into the elevator.
When he came to the hall, Chu Ling found that it was already dark.
She was in a trance, and here it was as if she had been there for a century.
Looking at the vast night, she couldn't see the future clearly.
"It's time to go to the Hall of Nobles!"
Walking out of the hotel and sorting out her chaotic thoughts, she straightened her waist and disappeared into the night.
