Chapter 119: The Corner

I followed the instructions of the owner of the rice noodle shop to this Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, and to my surprise, the business here was surprisingly good, and the restaurant was less than 40 square meters full of diners, most of whom were Chinese.

After entering the store, I found a place where no one was and sat down, and now it was the time when the store was busy, and when I was not busy, I went to ask the boss if he wanted to hire a worker, and it happened that I had just eaten at the rice noodle shop, so I paid another $12 for a Hong Kong-style set meal, and I was eating while killing time.

It's just that I didn't expect this tea restaurant to be extremely popular, busy from more than five o'clock in the afternoon to almost nine o'clock in the evening, and I also found that there was only one waiter in the store, so I couldn't be busy at all, so it's no wonder they were hiring.

As the number of customers dwindled, I stood up and walked to the cashier, where a lady in her fifties and sixties with glasses was settling accounts at the counter.

"Hello, are you still hiring?" I said it in Chinese.

"Huaxia? Are you looking for a job? The eldest lady looked up at me and asked.

"Yes, I need a job right now." I said sincerely.

"Have you done this before?" My aunt didn't give me the green light because I was a countryman.

"Well, I haven't." I'll be honest.

"Now that there is a shortage of an orderer and a delivery person in the store, which position do you want to apply for?" The eldest lady lowered her head and counted the money over and over again.

"Orderer." I definitely can't do food delivery because I'm not familiar with the local area.

"Working hours are 9 to 10 in the morning, the salary is 600 US dollars a month, and the tips are all yours, so if there is no problem, you can come to work tomorrow morning." The eldest lady said impatiently.

"Okay, no problem." I didn't expect to find a job so smoothly, although the salary is a little lower, but I just want to solve the urgent need, first familiarize myself with the environment, and consider future plans.

"What's your name?" The eldest lady raised her head and looked at me and said.

"My name is Meng Yin." I replied.

"It's a terrible name, okay, the store is closing, remember to come to work at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." The eldest lady said impatiently.

Standing on an unfamiliar street, I took a deep breath, the work was solved smoothly, and the next thing was where to live, there were actually several small hotels in Chinatown, especially those small signs with flashing pink neon lights, which looked particularly tempting, revealing some kind of bold hints.

I didn't want to go into a decent hotel, because at night there would be all kinds of cries in my ears, which was a cruel torture for a young man of good blood, so forget it and go to the other neighborhoods near Chinatown to see if there are any cheap apartments.

After all, staying in a hotel is not a long-term solution, and since I plan to develop in the United States for a long time, I must have a revolutionary base to live in.

After leaving Chinatown, walking down the exotic streets, it's almost 10 o'clock in the evening, and there are still a lot of pedestrians on the streets, and when night falls, the bustling metropolis of Los Angeles reveals itself to people in a different way.

Bars, nightclubs, and adults-only clubs have sprung up, and at the crossroads of the streets or under some dimly lit streetlight stand a few scantily clad sexy babies, from blonde Persian cats to dark-skinned chocolate ladies, who turn into night elves and offer the best night to the lonely.

"Hey, Wonder Oriental Boy, would you like to have a drink?" A young lady with heavy makeup said to me.

"Sorry, thanks, I have something to do." I politely refused, in my eyes they were no different from ordinary people, they were paid for their labor, and I did not discriminate against them.

"Okay, then remember to visit me next time." The young lady with heavy makeup said in frustration, her appearance is very ordinary, only makeup can make her look a little more beautiful, I think her work must be very bad tonight.

I walked aimlessly down the street, and from time to time I could hear sirens in the distance, and it seemed that the police were the busiest at night, and the crime was at its peak, so I had better find a place to stay as soon as possible.

After looking for a long time, I didn't find any apartments for rent, but I couldn't deal with the motel just passed by overnight, and tomorrow I asked the proprietress about where there was an apartment for rent in the vicinity, and it was better than walking around like this.

I was about to walk back after paying attention, when I noticed a slender figure standing under the street lamp across the street.

Under the dim light of the street lamp, she looked so different, with blond shawl curly hair, very white skin, wearing a very loose motorcycle leather jacket on the upper body, a pair of ultra-short denim shorts on the lower body, a sexy pair of black fishnet stockings on her slender and slender thighs, and a pair of high-top leather boots on her feet.

She leaned against the lamp, a cigarette in her mouth, and her angelic face was full of sadness, and I was so attracted by her that I unconsciously stopped and watched her across a narrow road.

So, I stood across the street and commented on her for ten minutes, what was wrong with me? I have also seen a lot of beauties, such as Yu Ji, such as Chen Jasmine, Liu Zhilong and Yang Xingtong, they are all rare beauties, it stands to reason that my immunity to beauties should be very strong, why do I have a feeling that I can't say when I see her?

In those ten minutes, I learned about her profession, and one lonely man after another came up to talk to her, but she seemed to be picky about her work and refused the men's requests.

A feeling of heartache arises from the heart, since the heavens have given you an angelic appearance, why are you willing to fall? Maybe you have something to worry about.

I extinguished the cigarette butt in my hand, silently buried this ignorant feeling in my heart, just as I was about to leave, I found that another man seeking comfort came to her, the two seemed to be talking about something, it seemed that it was negotiated, my heart was slightly lost, I was only nineteen years old that year, and I didn't know what this feeling was, until many years later, I looked back and found that I was really stupid and naïve at that time.

I thought she would refuse the man's invitation again, but this time I was disappointed to find that she seemed to agree, I smiled self-deprecatingly, yes, she lives by making money from this job, what am I disappointed about?

Suddenly, I noticed a detail, the man she was talking to seemed to be a little wrong.
