Although it was a bit depressing to not have Chu Hang's on-site guidance in the future, Tan Yin quickly forgot about this episode. Tomorrow is the weekend and also the first day of Tan Yin's part-time job. She is not a native of City A like Chu Hang and Jiang Yilu, so she hurried back to the dormitory to familiarize herself with the route map of City A.
Just when Tan Yin turned on the computer, Jiang Yilu suddenly rushed in from outside, her eyes shining and her tone excited: "Tan Yin, this is so exciting! I heard that just now in the cafeteria, two women fought for Chu Hang! One of them scratched Chu Hang so hard that a piece of his head was bald! It was so terrible! By the way, one of the women is the one who had a date with Chu Hang for dinner before. I have asked around. Her name is Duan Yingfei. She is a freshman in the law school this year and Chu Hang's childhood sweetheart! As for the other warrior who scratched Chu Hang bald because he couldn't get what he wanted, I haven't found out his name yet."
"… "
Jiang Yilu didn't care about Tan Yin's silence. She said with admiration, "I feel that she has a chance to surpass you and successfully attract Chu Hang's attention! Bald head! This is a direct blow to Chu Hang's image! It's more serious than the cartoon you drew!" At this point, she patted Tan Yin on the shoulder, "So sister, I told you not to worry, there is always someone stronger than the strong! But this warrior is against Duan Yingfei, I'm afraid it's not a good thing. I've inquired about this Duan Yingfei. Her family is very rich, but she is very petty and vengeful. She is especially good at pretending in front of boys. Anyway, she will definitely cause trouble for others..."
Tan Yin listened with an expressionless face and asked: "Where did you get this information?"
"My informant!"
"Your informant is from the School of Journalism, right?"
Jiang Yilu was stunned: "How do you know?"
"Because I am that fucking warrior!" Tan Yin said angrily, "This is totally fake gossip! I didn't fight with Duan Yingfei at all, and I didn't catch Tu Chuhang at all! This is a blatant slander!"
After listening to Tan Yin's explanation, Jiang Yilu took out her phone in indignation: "I'm so angry, I'm going to scold this informant right now! This is simply fake news! And he cheated me out of a hundred yuan for the information!"
"Forget it, why are you scolding me!" Tan Yin stopped him, "He's so good at making up stories, adding fuel to the fire, and hitting the G-spot of bored college students so accurately. He's also a graduate of the School of Journalism and Communication. He's definitely a journalistic talent in the future! Why don't you make friends with him!"
"… "
*****
Fortunately, with Jiang Yilu's strong refutation of the rumor, Tan Yin finally cleared the bad reputation of catching Chu Hang bald in the campus forum. However, she did not care too much about such rumors spread on campus. Now, Tan Yin, looking at the balance of her bank card, is thinking about making money.
The Chinese restaurant where Tan Yin worked part-time this time is called Dezhiwei. Unlike other restaurants and food delivery companies such as Meituan and Ele.me, Dezhiwei employs all its own delivery staff. In addition to a group of long-term contract workers, it also recruits college students like Tan Yin to work part-time as deliverymen when business is good.
Dezhiwei offered Tan Yin a part-time job with a base salary of 2,000 yuan a month and a commission of 5 yuan for each order she delivered. For a student who only works part-time on weekends, this is a very high base salary. The reason for this is that, in addition to being a busy season, the next three months will be the rainy season in City A, and showers may occur at any time, making the conditions for delivering meals outside more difficult.
"I understand that you students may have things to do on weekends occasionally. If you have something to do, just ask for leave in advance. However, your base salary will be deducted according to the proportion of your leave. In other words, if you want to get a base salary of 2,000, you must deliver meals all day on all weekends in a month."
The person in charge of the restaurant was a fat middle-aged man with a calm voice but a serious attitude. Tan Yin accepted his words very much. She was not afraid of the hard work of delivering food on rainy days, and it didn't matter if it rained on weekends, as long as there was no thunder. Once there was thunder, in order to avoid the headlines of the news such as "A small electric scooter in the city is unmanned but driving automatically", she had to take leave and not deliver food.
“This is our restaurant’s delivery uniform.”
Tan Yin listened to the restaurant manager talk about some work requirements before going to the bathroom to change into her uniform, picking up the first takeout order of the day, putting on her helmet and going out.
When she really started to work, Tan Yin found out that the money that the deliverymen reported in the news, which is over 10,000 yuan a month, is not easy to earn. Although it did not rain today, the weather was sultry. From nearly noon till now, as a newbie on the job for the first time, Tan Yin has delivered a total of nine orders. She was so hot that the hair on her forehead was wet and stuck to her face.
When she returned to the restaurant again and was about to pick up her food and leave, she heard several familiar delivery men chatting while waiting for their meals.
“How many orders have you delivered?”
"Sixteen orders, but I guess we won't be able to deliver them so quickly later on."
"Why?"
"Look at the weather today, it's so dull and gloomy. It's only noon and it's already dark. It's going to rain heavily soon. How can I deliver as fast as before? Oh! I hate the rainy season the most because the roads are slippery and I can't drive too fast. I miss a lot of orders every day..."
…
After Tan Yin got the meal, she subconsciously glanced at the sky outside. The weather forecast clearly said there would be no rain, but the current situation looked like a heavy rain was brewing.
Finish this order!
Tan Yin thought that after delivering this order, she would not deliver any more. Firstly, it would be a pity if it rained, and secondly, at this time, not many people would order food.
However, the address of this order is a bit far away. Qingjiang Garden is a famous garden-style villa area in City A. Although it is also within the city center, it is actually a certain distance away from the main urban area for the purpose of achieving a quiet environment.
Tan Yin got on his electric scooter and headed towards Qingjiang Garden while wiping the sweat off his face.
Like all high-end residential areas, Qingjiang Garden does not allow food delivery vehicles to enter. Tan Yin parked his electric scooter at the gate of the community, then got out of the car carrying the food delivery box and walked into the community.
“10 buildings… 10 buildings…”
This garden-style community is indeed worthy of its reputation. Even the public areas are full of pavilions, towers and waterside pavilions. There is a new scene at every step. Tan Yin turned around several times and finally found the delivery address -
This is probably the best-located single-family house in the entire community. Even from a distance, looking across the fence, one can see that this is the largest and most beautiful garden. Just by standing outside the quaint door, Tan Yin can already hear the gurgling sound of water in the yard.
She opened the restaurant's internal food delivery app and called the customer.
Because of the number protection and anonymity function, Tan Yin could not see the other party's name and real number, and did not even know the other party's gender. She could only politely say, "Your takeaway has arrived."
"Okay, I'll be down to open the door." It was a man, quite young. His voice was a little cold but pleasant to hear. Perhaps all pleasant voices are very similar. This voice always gave Tan Yin a familiar feeling. The other party probably had someone with him. After he finished talking to Tan Yin and before he had time to hang up, he said softly with some helplessness and doting, "Keke, stop messing around. Let me go down first." Although he spoke to Tan Yin in a distant manner, this sentence was very gentle.
Tan Yin stood at the door, listening to the sound of approaching footsteps from inside the house. Then the other party arrived at the door and began to turn the doorknob...
However, almost at the same time, a thunderclap and lightning split the sky, and soon, a shower of rain poured down.
Is God kidding me?!
Tan Yin was furious. How could she get home now? There was no one in the villa area, and she couldn't even get an umbrella! She couldn't drive a small electric scooter in secret. There wasn't even a bus in this remote place that she could get on...
"Keke, be good, don't block the door, let me open it first."
Just as Tan Yin was complaining inwardly, the door finally opened, and Tan Yin finally understood why the voice was so familiar, because it was Chu Hang's face that appeared at the door.
Tan Yin knew that Chu Hang, as a native of City A, often returned home on weekdays and weekends, but she didn't know that this was Chu Hang's home
Chu Hang was wearing cotton pajamas. His hair, which was usually neatly combed, was now slightly curled up, making it look a little fluffy. There was still some laziness on his face from just waking up from the quilt, and his handsomeness carried a bit of unguarded innocence.
After he opened the door, he was obviously stunned by the empty scene outside. He frowned slightly and looked around, and finally found his takeaway box on the floor at the door.
But before he could pick up the takeaway box, a really furry head popped out from behind him. The owner of this head spread his legs and rushed out of the door at lightning speed, running into the rain before Tan Yin could react.
It is a very lively golden retriever.
"cocoa!"
Chu Hang shouted, but the golden retriever remained unmoved and continued to run into the rain. He ran so fast that he didn't even close the door and hurried into the rain.
Tan Yin poked her head into the house out of curiosity, and this look made her want to soar to the edge of breaking the law.
On the high-quality dining table in Chu Hang's living room, mixed in with a pile of architectural magazines, isn't it his own comic manuscript? ! It's really a piece of cake to find it without any effort!
God is not kidding me! Tan Yin was touched and thought, Chicken Soup Wencheng didn't lie to me, it's true that what's past will be past, what's coming is on the way, everything is the best arrangement! God's will! Everything is God's will!
Chu Hang's house, the door was not closed, Chu Hang was not there, the dog was not there either, and his comic manuscript was placed on the dining table a few steps away!
If you don't commit a crime at this time, you will be unworthy of the superpowers you have worked so hard to obtain by being struck by lightning!
Without saying a word, Tan Yin tiptoed into Chu Hang's house. Her plan was perfect. She took the comic manuscript without anyone noticing. After all, it was hers. This was called returning the property to its original owner, not stealing.
But ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel. As soon as Tan Yin walked into the house, she heard the movement of Chu Hang and the dog at the door...
Chu Hang carried the dog in one hand and the takeaway box in the other, and walked back into the room with a frown on his face. Before Tan Yin could react, he kicked the door shut with his foot.
Because he was chasing the dog in the rain, the dog got dirty and Chu Hang was not spared either. His white pajamas were splashed with mud and his hair was dripping with water.
However, the dog, which had been behaving well in his hands, suddenly started barking wildly in the direction of Tan Yin, as if it was trying to break free from Chu Hang's hands and pounce on Tan Yin.
Fortunately, Chu Hang possessed a terrifying fighting power that was completely inconsistent with his overly delicate face. Even such a twisting and strong adult golden retriever could not escape from his palm in the end. Chu Hang just held it up and patted it on the head a few times as a warning.
"Be quiet, Coco, and stop barking, or I'll cut off your dog food later."
The dog felt quite aggrieved and unwilling, so it barked a few times in the direction of Tan Yin, then whimpered and fell silent under Chu Hang's death stare.
Chu Hang’s tyranny is so powerful that even dogs are afraid of him!
While Chu Hang was taking the dog to the bathroom to wash, Tan Yin put her comic manuscript in her pocket and rushed to the door. However, the door was made of some high-end material, and it was locked automatically after closing, probably to prevent the dog from opening the door and escaping from the house. Tan Yin twisted the door handle for a long time, but there was no sign of it opening.
This is fucking embarrassing...
As if all this was not enough, not only was she locked up in Chu Hang's house, but she was also extremely hungry. She hadn't had time to eat since the food was delivered at noon...
Chu Hang bathed the dog and took a shower himself. He walked to the dining table refreshed and started eating the takeaway.
Hey... Tan Yin sat opposite Chu Hang, watching with drooling mouth. With the aroma of his takeaway, Tan Yin felt even hungrier...
Chu Hang was just eating takeout, but he was so elegant as if he was dining in a high-end restaurant. Even though he was alone, his dining etiquette was perfect. After finishing the meal so slowly, Tan Yin felt as if she had been cruelly treated like a slow slicing.
"Okay, Coco, it's your turn to eat." After Chu Hang finally finished eating, he cleaned up, stood up, took out a bag of things from the kitchen drawer, and put it in the dog bowl.
After Chu Hang put out the dog food, he went upstairs.
As soon as Chu Hang left, Tan Yin immediately walked around his house in an attempt to find food, but the refrigerator was empty, and there was no snacks at all!
Tan Yin was so hungry that she felt dizzy and leaned against the wall. She felt like she was starving to death. At this time, the sound of the golden retriever chewing dog food was particularly clear...
Wait, dog food...
Tan Yin cast her eyes towards the dog biscuits in the golden retriever’s food bowl… I heard that dog biscuits are actually quite delicious
No! Tan Yin! You are a human being! How can you eat dog food!
Eh? But it is said that dog biscuits are really delicious, no salt, no seasoning, a little bit of milk flavor... It seems to be delicious...
…
Finally, hunger overcame Tan Yin. She held a large bag of dog biscuits and ate them while exclaiming, "How delicious! Dog biscuits are really delicious!"
Tan Yin ate with gusto. Only the golden retriever was still hostile to her. After finishing its own portion of dog food, it barked towards where Tan Yin was.
Tan Yin extended her hand to the golden retriever, holding a handful of dog biscuits in her hand: "Here, do you want some?"
Unexpectedly, Chu Hang's golden retriever was as stubborn as Chu Hang. The dog actually ignored Tan Yin's advances, turned its head away, refused, and then barked at Tan Yin angrily.
Chu Hang went downstairs again, and the golden retriever stood up and shouted to Chu Hang to complain, but...
However, Chu Hang only saw the opened dog food scattered next to the dog bowl. Clearly, there was more than half a bag of dog biscuits left just now, but now it was empty...
“Keke!” Chu Hang’s voice was distorted with anger, “I told you not to eat secretly!”
So the dog, who loyally guarded his master and defended his home against foreign enemies, and restrained his desires and did not let the enemy easily bribe him with dog biscuits, was severely beaten by his master...
“No dog biscuit snacks for the next week!”
The dog was completely depressed... It lay on the ground pitifully, and from the look in its eyes, it probably would never love again.
