Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Distressed
Wei Zexuan came out of the restaurant and did not rush to leave. He parked his car at the intersection, sitting at a distance of about ten meters there looking at everythings inside the restaurant.
From dusk to midnight, the people in the restaurant are always in constant packed. Until 10:30, a waiter came out and hung up 'closed notices' on the big glass, and the guests left one after another.
Few lights were turned off, and a cleaner wiped the table and swept the floor. The waiters were all around the counter and tapping on the calculator. Xia Yuxi walked out from the kitchen at this moment.
Wei Zexuan sat upright from the chair, keeping his eyes on Xia Yuxi's body. She looked very tired, her face was very white due to long-term sweltering dehydration, and her legs seemed to be filled with cement. Wei Zexuan remembered that she should have stood infront of the stove for five hours!
With a faint distress, he kept following his eyes, seeing that she unbuttoned the chef's clothes as she walked, took off the high hat from her head, and then sat on the 27th table.
Wei Zexuan opened his lips and felt inexplicable in his heart.
That was the position he had sat in. This small coincidence made his heart moved. The waiter, Wei Zexuan remembered that she had served him, are they were talking about their own affairs?
I knew this would happen, Wei Zexuan regretted why he didn't say a few words to the waiter when he was sitting there?
He has always disliked others talking about him behind the scenes, but if this is the case, he is happy.
In the restaurant, more lights went out. Wei Zexuan then reacted, looking down at the time on his wrist, it was eleven o'clock, Xia Yuxi should get off work.
The man panicked and pressed the car's start switch. He couldn't let Xia Yuxi see himself, otherwise his sneaky happiness could not be maintained. Originally, Wei Zexuan arrived because he was worried about what Liu Zhiyan would do, but he unexpectedly found that he was eating as Xia Yuxi's meal as a guest. It was good to accompany her to work in this way. Although not disturbing, like always by her side.
On this day, Xia Yuxi was in a very good mood. Although tired, it was very valuable.
Boss Zhang told her before that, if the dish was recognized by customers, she could give her 1 yuan per plate. She sat in the last train and calculated the data, five hours of work, about 30 servings of fried rice per hour, then you can get an extra 150 yuan a night. Four thousand five a month, more than fifty thousand a year, plus the secretary's job will be normalized next month. If she saves a little, she can pay back that 20W in almost a year.
Just... Xia Yuxi scratched her head and thought of the house that He Yiwei rented. Although it is very large and comfortable there, if she want to bring her mother with you, isn't it great? And that rent is really a heavy burden for Xia Yuxi. If she can change to a smaller apartment, she can save two people from the current rent for food.
The lives of ordinary people are so trivial, but Xia Yuxi feels more energetic than ever.
Because of the debts, she has learned to plan carefully, and because of the busy day, she has rarely remembered Wei Zexuan. Tomorrow is the weekends. She can sleep late and go to see her mother to cook a few dishes for her. The two will happily finish their meal before going to the restaurant to work.
She thought about it and took a deep breath. I felt that the air in the subway train at 11:30 was a little fresh.
"Xiaoxi, came to see your mother again?" The uncle living next door went out to throw garbage, and greeted Xia Yuxi with a smile.
Xia Yuxi held two vegetable bags and couldn't make it, so he nodded joyfully, "Yeah, Liu Bo, have you eaten? Come and try my cooking together?"
"It's okay, I have the keys." Xia Yuxi twisted open the door, put two bags on the floor of, and then relaxed her wrists looking out of the small living room.
My mother is really not here. It looks like she have been out for hours because the windows are closed.
She only closed the window when she was out for a long times, because she was afraid that the rains will splashed in.
Xia Yuxi thought she was out looking for a job, as she mentioned it when she was talking on the phone with her.
Although Xia Yuxi didn't want her mother to work so hard, thinking of an old woman staying at home for a long time, which is boring, so there is no objection. Xia Yuxi went straight to the small kitchen with a bag, and then opened the refrigerator, intending to put in the shopping stuffs.
But the refrigerator is full. Xia Yuxi looked stunned, reached out and took out a bottle from the refrigerator.
Densely written in English is a health supplement for the heart, made in the UK. At a glance, she knew that this bottle was worth several thousand yuan. This brand was also the mother's favorite before Xia's downfall.
But where does her money come from? Even if she has money, how can she buy things abroad? Has Wei Zexuan been here again? I treated him as a friend? Why didn't he take his mother back directly? Isn't that save all the trouble?
Xia Yuxi stubbornly turned everything out, arranged in a row on the cabinet, and then stuffed the cheap vegetables she brought into the refrigerator.
She seemed calm, but her anger was hidden in her heart. Then she began to clean up the fish and fiddle with the vegetables according to the previous plan.
At this moment, when the door of the house not far away opened, Fang Jinghua came in.
Xia Yuxi put down the things in her hand to meet her. She had to ask her mother why she still accepted what Wei Zexuan's money.
"Xiao Xi, are you here ..."
"Mom, you ..." As soon as Xia Yuxi's words were spoken, she felt that something was wrong. She stepped closer to her mother's body, and then sniffed with her nose.
A big smell of cigarettes, but her mother's heart is not good and she never smokes. "Mom, why is there such a big smell of cigarette on you?"
For non-smokers, this odor will appear particularly sensitive, except in one case, people who have been soaked in second-hand smoke for a long time will not feel the odor on themselves. Fang Jinghua's nervousness caused her daughter's questioning, she took a step back subconsciously, and then sniffed her gown and smelled, "Yes ... Really?"
Xia Yuxi saw every expression on her face, and found other problems in two to three seconds. The mother's clothes looked crumpled, and her hair was a little greasy, especially this woman who is no longer young. Once her sleep is not good, the lines on her face will be particularly clear.
Suspiciously, Xia Yuxi asked again, "Mom, haven't you been back all night? Where have you been?"
Fang Jinghua opened her lips, and her face brushed instantly. This reaction made Xia Yuxi feel wrong.
"Don't you..."
"I found a job." Fang Jinghua said suddenly, "Who would hired me at my age? The class during the day could not be done at all, so I went to clean the house at night."
Xia Yuxi's heart froze, "Where is the evening class?"
"Isn't that the right place?"
This made Xia Yuxi's heart suddenly unprepared. She pulled up her mother's arm in pain and said, "Give up, don't do those things, I can afford you."
Fang Jinghua then smiled slightly, and Xia Yuxi could see that she was really tired, "It's okay, Mom, I haven't had any hardships in these years. Although it was quite a disgrace, but the salary is good. I just think I can still work to help you pay off the debt, or when will the 200,000 be paid?"
When she entered the door, Xia Yuxi was angry, but at this moment she only felt that she owed a lot to her mother, and the gifts she had accepted seemed not so important.
Xia Yuxi walked towards her mother, "Don't you think like that? Let me think you daughter is really incompetent. In fact, I have a good salary now. I have no problem raising you. I'm starting to look for a house, and we will move out from here next month, so you quit that job and just enjoy the good fortune?"
Before going to bed, Fang Jinghua patted her daughter's hand gently, then closed her eyes slowly to sleep, but she said nothing.
The mother's hard work made Xia Yuxi unable to say anything.
She returned to the small kitchen and cooked smoothly, thinking about her mother being very tired without a rest all night. She covered the cooked food with a plate and placed it on the coffee table, and walked out of the house quietly. As usual, Wei Zexuan came to this restaurant on Saturday, because it was a rest day, he came earlier than usual.
Almost as soon as she sat down on table 27, she saw Xia Yuxi hurried into the restaurant.
The man was surprised, and quickly picked up the phone and looked at the time above. "Why did she come so early?"
Just as Xia Yuxi glanced at this side, Wei Zexuan leaned down very quickly and hid his body under the table. She seemed to see a familiar figure, but at a glance the table was empty.
Xia Yuxi patted her head. Has she been too busy lately and has hallucinations? Actually, what would I feel when I saw Wei Zexuan in this place. She smiled because she knew it was impossible.
Wei Zexuan lowered his head very low, blue veins appeared on his forehead, his eyes stared at his toes, and his face became red. But he did not dare to look up, because he was not sure if Xia Yuxi was still there.
Until a pair of canvas shoes appeared in his vision.
"Sir, what have you lost?"
Wei Zexuan cursed in his heart and slowly sat upright. He first blocked his half of the face facing the door with his arm, and then raised the neckline of the suit.
Until he saw that Xia Yuxi was gone at the door, the man embarrassedly pulled the tie under his neck and slightly raised his chin.
"Oh!" The waiter took a breath when he saw Wei Zexuan's respect. A little adored and a little ridiculous. Because no one buys long-term meal tickets in this kind of store, and no customer directly pays the money without leaving an invoice.
"Sir, do you still want shrimp fried rice? The taste of shrimp is the same as yesterday, but you can't say it is not fresh anymore."
Wei Zexuan tilted his head, "Have you adjusted your working hours?"
"Well?" The waiter was asked a moment, then heard the guest change his word and said, "Still fried shrimp with rice, two plates, put it together, remember to ask your chef to give me more shrimp."
Still elusive and picky! The waiter rolled his eyes and turned, "I see."
Although Wei Zexuan extended the dining time indefinitely, but the slowest meal was only an hour, he could only leave and then got into the car, starting at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, waiting for Xia Yuxi to go to work long ten minutes.
The heads of people coming and going in the restaurants seem to be irregular, and the snowflakes dancing on the TV set make people gradually feel sleepy.
When Wei Zexuan opened his eyes again, it was already dark and the road was dimly lit. He sat upright all of a sudden, and lowered his head subconsciously to watch the time on his lower wrist. Fortunately, it was only ten o'clock. He did not miss the opportunity to meet with Xia Yuxi through the window.
When the man looked lazily at the glass window, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of the restaurant. The woman looked away from the door, as if hesitant to go in, and again what this person looking for.
Suddenly, Wei Zexuan straightened his back, and whispered in his mouth, "Liu Zhiyan?"
Really predicted by him, this deep-witted woman would not let Xia Yuxi peace, so she couldn't bear the hatred? But in two days, she's in trouble again?
