Chapter 21: Confrontation
My face was bloodless, the cold hairs on my body exploded, and a murderous aura came towards me, as if I had fallen into an ice cave.
However, I reacted extremely quickly, and the soul chain in my hand rushed out, and the unicorn and I had a very tacit understanding, and a ghost claw also directly condensed, directly taking the masked store manager.
"Yo he! It's not a small cowardice! The store manager stretched out a hand, flicked his fingers, and the ghost claws dissipated, then pinched the soul chain and rubbed it on his hand.
"When I saw this thing, I kind of believed in the relationship between you and that person, no wonder he begged me, it was more difficult for him to ask for someone than to ascend to the sky!"
"Save it! Your little tricks are okay against ordinary ghosts. I can't even hurt and I still want to hurt the store manager? The little sister pouted.
"Meow!" Xiao Gong yelled at the store manager, as if expressing his dissatisfaction.
The store manager loosened the soul chain and lifted the back of Xiao Gong's neck, "You little white-eyed cat who can't be raised, you turn your arms out so quickly?" β
I was stunned, my hands on the table, I could hold myself steady, and cold sweat broke out.
"Go, play! I won't do anything to him, why are you in a hurry? The store manager put down Xiao Gong, propped up his chin with his hand, and muttered for a moment, "Hmm! Barely qualified! Count you through. β
"Store manager, do you mean that uncle and little brother can stay?" The little sister's eyes were shining, and she said expectantly.
I came back to my senses, "What? What stays? Aren't you going to kill us? β
"Kill you? Am I so bored? The store manager said.
I'm special...
Black is what he said, and white is what he said, and now he asks me in turn whether I am black or white, isn't it sick? But I'm too jealous, so I don't dare to make a mistake, if he gets excited and wipes me up, where can I cry?
"In this way, we have been short of people in the store recently, so we need to hire a temporary worker, I think you are quite suitable." The store manager said slowly.
βwhatοΌβ I'm full of black question marks, what's that? Hiring temporary workers?
"No, no, look at my little arms and legs, I don't think I can do your work here, and I have my own job." I immediately shirked it, and my head was in the water before I agreed to him.
The work of this coffee shop seems to be very serious, but can such an unserious store manager be serious? The answer is yes, what if you accidentally lose your life?
The store manager raised his head and said lightly, "I don't agree!" If you don't agree, I'll kill you! β
it! Unreasonable! So violent at every turn?
"I can't promise you now!" Qilin spoke, "Hu Ran has already invited him to work as a corpse burner in the funeral home, and the job in the coffee shop may not be acceptable." β
Yo! This little clever ghost knows how to pull the banner of tiger skin.
I nodded, "yes! I... I promised to go to Huran... Over there..."
Kirin doesn't know how powerful Hu Ran is, and I don't know how powerful he is. But he is the most powerful person we have ever met in Jiangcheng, and the store manager has a grudge against my grandfather, so we can only try to revenge it.
Facial paralysis, I'm sorry. I have to borrow your name today.
"Hu Ran!" The store manager's sudden surprise gave me some confidence.
"Hu Ran of the funeral home? It's a bit tricky. β
I couldn't see his expression, but I was watching his tone. Not to mention how jealous he is, but at least put Hu Ran on an equal footing and did not disdain.
"But you want me to let go just because of a nonsense? Inexistent. The store manager said lightly.
My eyes rolled several times, and the calf was finished! It's useless to move out of Hu Ran.
Just about to fool the past first, a voice came, which made me overjoyed, this is especially Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived! God!
"Really? I heard that someone is going to rob me of someone? β
The door of the coffee shop suddenly opened, the little sister's face changed, and she hugged the pink panther in her hand, several cats completely lost their lazy appearance, the cat's eyes were full of essence, and the claws were cold, as if they would pounce on it in the next moment.
"Hu... Wildly... Brother Hu..."I ran over.
I don't care about how Hu Ran found it, he is an old man with great powers, I don't bother to care, I just hope he will fish me out.
"Hey! Brother Hu, what do you say? Robbing people? How ugly it is, this kid is not a fragrant bait. If I hadn't been entrusted to take care of him, I wouldn't want to take care of him! The store manager snorted.
I'm not afraid of the backer as soon as I come, looking at the store manager's attitude, it seems that I don't dare to tear my face with Hu Ran.
"Is that really the case?" Hu Ran played with taste, "Every thing an adult does has a deep meaning." β
"That's a lot better than your so-called step-by-step Hu Ran." The store manager said in a deep voice.
With the two of them as the center, the atmosphere in the coffee shop was about to be ignited, and the strong smell of gunpowder smoke scared me into saying nothing.
"He, I'm going to take him away, and I hope the adults can fulfill it. Beings like you shouldn't meddle too much in these mundane things. Hu Ran put his hands behind his back.
I saw his hands moving, as if they were sealing. He was certainly not as calm as he appeared at this time, and while he put pressure on the store manager, the store manager also put a lot of pressure on him.
"That incident was done by Song Shoucheng, even if Song Kaiming is his grandson, karma is right to be retribution on him, but it shouldn't have come so early."
"So, you're going to protect him?" The store manager took a step forward, and I sat down on the floor in a daze.
I grabbed Hu Ran, if I fought hard, I would be guilty, "He didn't settle accounts with me!" β
Hu Ran's whole body trembled, "What do you mean?" β
"What do you mean? That's what our store manager meant, Song Shoucheng was not to blame for what he did back then, and someone wiped his ass for him. The little sister said coldly.
Hu Ran calmed down, but it was impossible to see embarrassment and apology on his face. The store manager is not a person who messes around, and his momentum has been removed, and he has returned to his cynical appearance.
"What about the basic trust between people in this world? Look at this appearance, you are the first to arrive, I have to say that you have a good eye. β
Hu Ran did not shy away from it, and said it very clearly, "I am bound to win this matter, and whoever dares to stop it, I will fight with whomever I want." β
The store manager rubbed his temples, "Then I don't care, I even paid my salary in advance, why should I hand it over to you?" I'm not stupid. Besides, coming to me as a temporary worker does not conflict with yours. β
I'm anxious, the store manager looks like this, he doesn't want to release people at all, what kind of advance salary, don't you just drink a cup of coffee? I was so frightened that it was okay not to let him accompany me for mental damage.
"That, store manager, I think the young man before is more suitable than me, or you can find him! He would definitely say yes. I laughed.
The store manager said seriously, "I have this plan, but unfortunately he was booked, and he is still someone I can't afford to provoke, so as not to steal chickens and rice, if I kidnap him, someone will want to play with me." So it's better for you. β
"No, you're too dangerous, I don't dare hand him over to you. What did you give him? I'll pay you the same price. Hu Ran was silent for a moment.
"That's fine! Since Brother Hu is so arrogant, I won't be able to go if I don't let go. The store manager smiled, "It's not much, it's just a cup of 'Sansheng', a hundred drops." β
Hu Ran's face changed greatly, and it was the first time I saw him so out of shape, and I exclaimed, "How is it possible? A cup of three lives? You gave him a drink? β
I muttered, "Isn't it just a cup of tea?" It's delicious, it's just a little less. β
"Isn't it just a cup of tea? You say that, too. The little sister said angrily, "You don't know the value of 'three lives' at all, there are ghost kings who think that they are slaves for a hundred years in exchange for a drop of 'three lives', and the store manager doesn't allow it." β
"If it's 'three lives', I really can't pay for it." Hu Ran said helplessly, "But I can't figure out why a character like you would be so excited about a hairy boy?" And at the cost of a precious cup of three lives"
I could tell that Hu Ran had compromised. In other words, this temporary worker has to do it? I was a little panicked.
"I said that I was entrusted by someone, otherwise what would I want this bastard boy for? Have nothing to do? The manager sighed.
"Song Shoucheng? No! It can't be Song Shoucheng, it's too late for him to hide from you, it can't be anything to do with you, who is that? Hu Ran asked.
I also pricked up my ears to listen, and the store manager turned around and said, "No comment!" β
Hu Ran didn't continue to investigate, "There aren't many people who can let you take out a cup of 'Three Lives'." β
"Let's put it this way! I don't value him as much as you do. The store manager said, "Do you know what I mean?" β
"I know you're busy, I won't talk to you, I promise that kid's safety, okay!"
Hu Ran's face changed again and again, and it was estimated that something was guessed by the store manager, and after getting the store manager's promise, Hu Ran waved his hand.
"Adults also have an identity, they shouldn't deceive someone Hu, if Song boy has any mistakes, then don't blame me for being polite."
"That's natural, Mr. Hu's anger is not something that everyone can bear, even if you don't look for me, someone will look for me, I haven't grown three heads and six arms, and I won't ask for trouble."
Both of them are human spirits, and they don't have any life-and-death feuds, so naturally they won't talk too much, and they each take a step back.
"I have something to do and need to leave Jiangcheng for a while, with Lord Ni to take care of me, you don't need to worry about your safety, and I won't prepare anymore." After Hu Ran finished talking to me, he left, without taking his head back.
Your mother sells batches! appeared so domineering, but the result withered. I just counted on Hu Ran to pull me out, and the special mother slipped away, and the dog was unrighteous.
I reacted immediately and ran away, "Hu Ran, wait for me..."
"Whoosh!" The glass door was closed, and I looked at Hu Ran's disappearing back through the glass, and I wanted to cry.
"I'm in such a hurry, where do you want to go! Have I done you wrong? Well? β
My heart jumped, I turned my head mechanically, and my face was crying, "What are you doing with me, I have no grievances with you..."
"According to what you say, I fed the dog with the 'three lives' on my back?" The store manager laughed, "You want to leave without paying for my stuff?" How can there be such a good thing. β
