bar
The soft voice of the female singer echoed in the bar, and guests in twos and threes were drinking and chatting at the booth.Waiters in white shirts moved around the bar carrying trays.
The door of the bar was opened, and a handsome man walked in from the outside.His face was tired, and his hair was a little messy.Although he was also wearing a white shirt like the bartender, but the neckline was opened twice, exposing the delicate collarbone, paired with slightly raised peach eyes, and a lazy expression, the whole person added a bit of temptation.
He walked all the way to the bar, and greeted several passing waiters along the way, looking very familiar.Then he walked to the bar and lay there in a very imageless manner.
Ye Chen was facing away from waiting for the bartender to mix the drinks for the guests, when someone put his shoulders on him from behind. "Ah Chen, I'm so hungry." A dying voice came from behind.
The person who picks him up like this in the bar doesn't think of anyone other than Su Yao.Ye Chen looked up at the watch in the lobby, it was 09:30 in the evening.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"I drank too much last night. I've been asleep until now. Where are we going to eat?" Su Yao was still hanging on him, mumbling in his mouth, and yawned after he finished speaking.
Ye Chen saw him talking nonsense with his eyes open, so he couldn't give him a blank stare on the spot.Although the location of their bar is a bit out of the way, it can still be considered in the downtown area.The whole street is either a bar or a restaurant, no matter how bad it is, there are roadside stalls, where you can't find food, this young master is obviously lazy, because the straight line distance from his house to the bar is the shortest.
"Oh." Ye Chen took him off his body, and the bartender next to him just mixed the wine that the guest wanted, and Ye Chen turned around and served it to the guest.
"Hey, are you the attitude an employee should have towards his boss!" Su Yao pointed at his back and said in disbelief.
The bartender next to him handed him a glass of water, "Boss, do you want me to send someone to the back kitchen to show you?"
"Hey, forget it. I'll go and see for myself." Su Yao drank the water in the cup, and then wandered to the back kitchen.
They usually have some food in the bar.But it's mostly snacks and snacks and fruit.Su Yao waved his hand to let the staff in the back kitchen do whatever they wanted. He rummaged through the pile of melon seeds, peanuts and beef jerky in distaste, reached out and took a banana, peeled it and ate it.Only then did I feel a little comfort to my hungry and anxious stomach.
He opened the refrigerator without any hope, and actually saw a fresh-keeping bag inside.He opened it curiously, and there were four or five wrapped zongzi inside.
Su Yao's eyes lit up, and she didn't care whose it was, she squatted on the chair beside her with the rice dumpling in her arms, peeled off one and ate one.Three or five mouthfuls killed one, he smashed his mouth, and ate another.That's when I feel like I'm alive.I just ate a candied date and an egg yolk, and I don't know what the next one will taste like.
While thinking about it, Su Yao peeled off the third one, intending to see what it tasted like.
While eating happily, a person walked quickly to the door from the outside, it was Ye Chen.
Ye Chen hurried to the back kitchen, and when he stood at the door, he saw Su Yao and the zongzi in his hand, he was immediately discouraged, and was still a step late.
"Hey, Ah Chen, I found a bag of zongzi in the refrigerator, do you want to eat it?" Su Yao asked him enthusiastically.
Ye Chen looked at the gnawed zongzi in his hand, and a pile of eaten zongzi leaves in the trash can next to him.Shaking his head angrily, "I brought this here."
"Huh?" Su Yao was surprised.
"And I gave it away." Ye Chen sighed.
"Huh?" Su Yao looked at the half-eaten zongzi in his hand. "You said it earlier." He looked at the two remaining in the fresh-keeping bag, "Anyway, you can't give it away, so I'll eat it all." He said alone, without any hesitation after speaking. He politely lowered his head and continued to chew.
Ye Chen was speechless, what else could he do if he ate everything. "Are you heated?"
"No, I just ate it." Su Yao put the last bite into his mouth nonchalantly.A beauty is a beauty, even though his mouth is pouting now, and there are still a few rice grains on his face, he is still a good-looking beauty.
It's a pity that Ye Chen is well aware of the sloppy nature of this beauty's good-looking appearance, and he is determined not to be confused by the beauty's appearance.Too lazy to bother him, anyway, Ye Chen shook his head and went to the front hall.
As summer was approaching recently, there were obviously more people in the bar. Ye Chen and the others were so busy that they didn't touch the ground, so they finally found time to stop and rest their feet.
"Hey, Chen, I heard that you are looking for a part-time job? Are you short of money recently?" Su Yao asked him lazily leaning on the bar.
"Yes."
"Then you can work in the store. Anyway, the store is very busy recently, and I plan to recruit two people."
"It's fine." Anyway, as long as you give money, it's the same anywhere, and the environment here is pretty good and I'm familiar with it.
The two of them didn't say a few words, and there was another guest calling for someone, so Ye Chen told Su Yao and hurried over.When he came back, Su Yao was no longer at the bar.Ye Chen didn't care too much, and when the store closed at night, he found that Su Yao was lying on the small booth in the corner and humming.I don't know how long I lay there, the bar was too dark, and Ye Chen and the others didn't see him.
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Chen pushed him.
"Stomach hurts." Su Yao clutched his stomach and groaned.
"Let you eat cold rice dumplings. Glutinous rice is not easy to digest. Have you taken medicine?"
Su Yao didn't answer either, just lying down and humming.It looks like I probably didn't eat it.There was no medicine in the store, Ye Chen told the cleaning colleague in the store, and ran to the next street to buy some stomach medicine for Su Yao.
Ye Chen poured him a glass of warm water, and watched Su Yao drink the medicine, still a little worried, the old hen's temper flared up again, "It's okay, if it doesn't work, let's go to the hospital."
Su Yao drank the medicine, wondered if the medicine had worked, and finally had the strength to answer him. "It's okay, I'm sick, I'll be fine after taking the medicine and sleeping."
Unable to talk to him, Ye Chen helped him to the lounge upstairs.Su Yao has a special lounge upstairs, where he occasionally lives when he doesn't want to go home.
After covering Su Yao with a quilt, and adjusting the temperature in the room for him, Ye Chen poured a glass of water and put it on his bedside. "Remember to call me if you have anything to do." Ye Chen asked worriedly.
"Achen, are you coveting my beauty when you treat me so well?" Su Yao lay on the bed with her eyes closed, still not forgetting to tease him.
"Sorry, I'm only interested in your money. Remember to give me a salary increase at the end of the month if you know how good I am to you."
"Tsk, could it be that I'm so old and decrepit that I don't even have the desire to be attractive to others?"
"If your stomach doesn't hurt, you can come to the store tomorrow to watch it. You can't see anyone a few times a month. When we can't live on, we donate money and run away. You don't know when the store is lost."
Boss Su successfully shut up, he was most annoyed by squatting in his shop, he couldn't drink alcohol, flirt with beauties, and couldn't do anything to the customers in the shop.He simply buried his head in the pillow, pretending that he fell asleep in seconds.
Seeing him like this, Ye Chen didn't talk about him, turned around, closed the door and walked out.
Colleague Xiaoqiu and the others have already left, and there are only two lights left in the hall for Ye Chen to illuminate.Ye Chen turned off the lights in the hall, turned on the lighting of the terminal and walked out by the light of the terminal.
After closing the door of the hall, Ye Chen locked the door with a smart lock outside.The colleagues who are on duty at night have recently asked for leave, and when they leave, they often lock the door from the outside.Fortunately, they can only be locked now, and they can also be opened inside.
It was only after I left the bar that I realized that the weather was very cloudy, and the summer rain often came as soon as it was said.A few flashes of lightning flashed faintly in the sky, and soon there was the sound of muffled thunder coming from a distance.
Ye Chen looked at his watch, it was already past one o'clock after this toss.He was in a hurry to go home and didn't open the bar door to get an umbrella. He ran a few steps to the urban rail station.
After living in this world for more than a month, Ye Chen feels that the living environment is not much different from the previous life.The most intuitive convenience experienced by residents at his level is the level of medical care and transportation. With the 24-hour unmanned intercity track and amazing medical technology, it stands to reason that the development of weapons should also undergo tremendous changes. However, according to Ye Chen's observations these days, the development of weapons has stagnated. It has a speed of development that is contrary to other technologies.
But these are not issues that citizens like Ye Chen should worry about.At this time, there are almost no people on the urban rails, and the trains are running fast on the rails.The light inside the carriage flickered with the lightning outside.Suddenly, several huge lightning bolts struck the night sky not far from the window. After several thunderclaps, heavy rain poured down, blurring the glass of the carriage.
Ye Chen was a little worried, wondering if Lou Xiaoqi would be scared when he was alone at home, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.At this time, it was too late to feel the inconvenience of not having a phone, and he could only sit anxiously on the city rails and spend his days like years.
After finally arriving at the station, he ignored the heavy rain outside and rushed into the rain curtain with his head down.The raindrops hit the body and it hurt, and the thunder that exploded above the head from time to time seemed to be an ominous sign.Ye Chen was drenched almost instantly, and the raindrops were so heavy that it was almost impossible to open his eyes. He took advantage of the lighting of successive lightning bolts and ran downstairs in one breath.
Pressing the floor button of the elevator, Ye Chen tried to breathe calmly. He saw his current appearance through the smooth wall in the elevator, his whole body was soaked and his face was in a mess.
He wiped the water off his face when the elevator arrived with a "ding".Ye Chen walked out quickly and walked to the door of the house.The fingerprints on his hands were a bit wet, and he couldn't recognize them after pressing them twice. He shook his hands a few times, rubbed his wet fingers against the wall, and then successfully opened the door.
The room was quiet and empty.
