In the past few days, my mother has always lost her appetite when eating, and her complexion is not very good. She looks uncomfortable while clutching her stomach. Aunt Li took her to a nearby clinic and prescribed some stomach medicine, but nothing improved. I was a little worried, and I took some time to take her to the hospital for a check-up when I was going to take a few days off.
Although the work in the supermarket is tiring, the shift time is early. It happened that a newly opened high-end restaurant in the city needed some waiters. I asked with an attitude of trying, and it turned out that they just happened to be able to work two shifts in the morning and evening, so I took this job down.
Now I get off work in the supermarket every day, I go back to eat a few bites of food in a hurry, and then rush to the restaurant without stopping. My mother doesn't understand what I do outside, but every time I go home, she will give me the money from selling scraps that day, and she looks happy when I accept it. I would put the money in the yellow cloth bag when she was not paying attention, watching her foolishly laughing while being cheated, there was only indescribable warmth in my heart.
When I went to work that night, it seemed that some well-known customers came to the store. The foreman hurriedly transferred a few people from our group to go there. That is the most expensive box in this hotel. The whole room is completely Chinese style. The most striking thing is that there is a large lantern shade hanging on the zenith in the middle, and some crystal chandeliers hang down in the middle. I was almost stunned, and the foreman grabbed me to the door of the room before I came back to my senses.
After a while, the manager led a group of people over. I only took a glance at it from a distance, and then froze in place.
Lin Han, one of Yitian's best brothers, the person who hates me the most in this world.
Back then, it was Lin Han who took pictures and threatened Yi Tianhou and asked someone to beat me seriously. In fact, I can understand that kind of deep-seated hatred. After all, I have been in love with someone for 20 years since I was a child. If someone snatches it in that way, I would probably go crazy with hatred if it were me.
A group of people were getting closer and closer, and I didn't dare to dodge too obviously, I just lowered my head as calmly as possible, praying in my heart that he would not notice me. One step, two steps... When Lin Han came to me, I clenched my fists nervously, and only breathed out secretly after the person passed by.
"Wait." Lin Han suddenly turned around and walked to me, "raise your head."
A group of people stopped and looked at this side, and I had no choice but to look up at him as calmly as possible and asked, "Does this gentleman need any help?"
Lin Han's pupils dilated instantly, and after a second of stunned, he suddenly laughed uncontrollably.
"Master Lin, what's the problem?" The manager hurried over, his face full of nervousness and panic.
"No...no problem at all." Lin Han waved his hand, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and walked in seemingly in a good mood. The manager hurriedly followed, and frowned at me before leaving.
I sighed in my heart, I know Lin Han's character very well, since he saw me, he couldn't let me go so easily. In fact, after I separated from Yi Tian, I was always worried about whether I would fall into Lin Han's hands. It is not impossible to be killed by him and thrown somewhere. I just don’t know if it was my luck that I was not found or he never found me at all. I have lived safely until now.
Sure enough, when the food was being served, the manager walked towards me with a face full of anxiety, and said, "Master Lin asked you to go in by name. What's going on here? Do you know each other?"
I shook my head. The manager sighed: "Don't make any trouble for me, how can I explain to the higher-ups if I offend the young master of the Lin family." I smiled wryly in my heart, seeing that such a trouble is definitely going to happen now. As for how it happens and how serious it is, it doesn't depend on me at all.
When I entered, two colleagues were serving food, Lin Han looked at me and smiled and said, "Come on, please pour me a cup of tea."
I walked over silently, watching my colleague take the teapot from the side with a look of bewilderment, and lowered my head to pour tea into the teacup in front of Lin Han. The others also noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and they all stopped talking and laughing.
Filled with tea, I put the teapot down and was about to back out when I was kicked hard on my calf. Unprepared, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Before I could react, all the dishes fell on me. Fortunately, the temperature of the dish was not too high, and I was not burned, but the greasy all over my body was very embarrassing.
Lin Han let out an "ah" in surprise, then looked at me calmly and said, "Oh, I'm so sorry, I slipped my hand." The surrounding area was so quiet that no sound could be heard, and no one dared to speak.
I struggled to stand up, the vegetable oil on my body was dripping due to the movement, I wiped the oil splashed on my face, and walked outside without saying a word.
"Stop." Lin Han's lazy voice came from behind, "Did I say you can go?"
I sighed slightly in my heart.
If it was a few days ago, I would immediately turn around and pour a plate of food on his head, and the worst thing after that would be to be beaten to death, I don't care. But now I have a home, and my dumb, stupid mother is still waiting for me at home. What will she do if I die, I can't let him lose his child a second time.
So I just stopped, turned around and looked at Lin Han expressionlessly, waiting for his next order.
Lin Han slowly picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip and immediately spit it out, frowned and said, "What the hell is so bad?" Then he raised his head and looked at me, but he was about to say something when he suddenly stopped and opened his eyes wide. Looking behind me.
I noticed something, and when I turned around, it was Yi Tian.
Suddenly, it seems to have returned to 5 years ago.
At that time, I was still in college, and every night I would work part-time at a restaurant near the school to earn tuition fees. One night, I met some drunken gangsters who deliberately found fault. When one of them kicked me down, he lifted the food on the table and tried to throw it at me, but he was stopped.
"I said, aren't you a bit too pushy?" Yi Tian held the man's wrist, took the dish, and poured it over the man's head with a calm expression.
Then came the scuffle between the two gangs.
I stared blankly at the boy who was about my age in front of me, dodging the attack beautifully, and punched those bastards with foul language one by one on the ground. Such exuberant vitality, indifferent and absolutely confident demeanor, unlike me, who was gloomy and humble, he seemed to be glowing all over.
So in fact, Yi Tian can't blame me for pestering him like this. If a person who has been living in darkness sees light and feels warmth one day, why would he try his best to keep that warm light by his side forever? Only now, I am standing in front of Yi Tian with oil stains all over my body, as if I am drawing a ridiculous end to that encounter 5 years ago.
The manager stood behind Yi Tian, his eyes would pop out when he saw me, he hurried over and scolded: "How did you do this!" Before I could explain, Lin Han's voice came from behind: "Manager Li, why do your waiters here can't even serve a dish?" The manager's head almost fell to the ground: "Master Lin, I'm so sorry, this is just here, I'll replace it right away!"
"But what should I do if I want him to serve food today." I turned around and met Lin Han's cold gaze. The manager was sweating profusely and didn't know what to do, and the atmosphere in the whole box became more and more tense.
At this time, Yi Tian walked past us, came to Lin Han, and patted his head, with some warning in his voice: "Don't make trouble." Lin Han curled his lips and said unhappily: "Okay, let's go out . " The manager apologized and dragged me out as if he was on the verge of an amnesty.
When I walked out, I thought in a trance that I might not destroy the last bit of warmth and beauty left in my heart. They are not reconciled.
