Chapter 136: Master Zhang with a Spade Tattoo [Fourth Update]
That is……
Isn’t that the skirt Bai Qingxia wore on the day she went to the amusement park?
It turned out to be Sister Li’s.
Yes, how could she have such a beautiful dress?
Lu Yuanqiu took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, as if he wanted to exhale his depressed mood along with this breath.
After a while, Sister Li sat on the bed and suddenly said in a muffled voice: "Alas, I got into trouble today. I guess I don't have to go back to work. I can only find a new job."
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at her right cheek which was covered with ice and asked, "Tell me about it?"
Sister Li chuckled: "I work in a KTV, you should know that, right? Xiao Xia doesn't know what my job is, but you may know..."
"Today, a bunch of people who look rich and powerful came. They said they were celebrating the birthday of a young man named Zhang and asked us to keep them company."
"When I went out to the bathroom, I suddenly heard screams coming from the private room. When I went in, I found that it was a good friend of mine who was pretty... being tortured by them, so I stepped forward to stop them."
Sister Li smiled bitterly when she said this: "I also know the situation clearly. I know they are not easy to mess with, so I smiled along with them. But they got drunk and didn't care whether I was smiling or not. Sigh..."
Lu Yuanqiu looked up when he heard this and asked, "Young Master Zhang? Who?"
There's no way, I feel a little sensitive when I hear this surname now.
Sister Li shook her head: "I don't know him, and I haven't heard them talk about his identity information. Anyway, he wears gold-rimmed glasses, looks gentle, and has a spade tattoo on his wrist, the same spade tattoo you see on playing cards."
She pointed to the inside of her wrist as she spoke.
Lu Yuanqiu remembered that there was no tattoo on Zhang Yifei's wrist. The rich Mr. Zhang...could he be his brother?
Of course, it's not necessarily such a coincidence.
Lu Yuanqiu then asked: "Then...will you continue to do this job in the future? Don't you plan to change it?"
Sister Li smiled bitterly: "I don't know how to do anything else. I don't want to work in a factory and get low wages. What else can I do? At least this line of work gives me experience and I can get tips. I can support myself and live a little better."
At this point, she was silent for a moment, then she suddenly looked up at Lu Yuanqiu and asked jokingly, "Will you look down on me?"
Lu Yuanqiu immediately became serious: "Of course not, all professions are equal, there is no such thing as looking down on others."
Sister Li nodded slightly.
"Xiao Qiu, you have to promise me one thing. Don't tell Xiao Xia about what I do specifically... It's not because I'm afraid she'll look down on me, it's just... this little girl is so innocent and pure, I don't want her to know that there is such a job in the world, and that this job is done by her neighbor sister, the neighbor sister who usually talks and laughs with her, takes her to listen to music and watch movies..."
When Sister Li said this, she choked up and lowered her head, but she still held back her tears.
Lu Yuanqiu clutched the boiled water in his hand and said, "Okay, don't worry, I don't usually talk to her about these things. She wouldn't understand even if I did. She's just a little fool."
Sister Li sat on the bed, smiled and raised her red eyes: "Although I sometimes feel sorry for Xiao Xia's life experience, I also envy her, really, I envy her even more for meeting a boy like you, and using the movie tickets won from the basketball game to take her to the cinema to watch a movie, how great, I guess she didn't dare to think that this kind of thing could happen before, she has always been alone, I never thought she would make friends, really, I am afraid that she will lose you as a friend, if she really loses you, it will definitely be a huge blow to her."
Lu Yuanqiu nodded silently.
Sister Li really knows Bai Qingxia very well.
Lu Yuanqiu said quickly: "Sister Li, there are a lot of movie tickets. I will give you a few when the time comes."
Hearing this, Sister Li quickly shook her hands: "That's not what I meant, you...ah." Lu Yuanqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I just wanted to invite you to watch a movie, nothing else."
Sister Li smiled and said, "Okay, okay, let's talk about it after you win the game."
As the two were chatting, there was a sudden noise coming from the next room.
Lu Yuanqiu and Sister Li raised their heads and glanced over there.
"Xiao Xia should be up now."
Sister Li reminded.
Lu Yuanqiu nodded, and he hurried forward to close Sister Li's door, walked to the window, and slightly opened a corner of the curtain.
"What are you doing?" Sister Li asked in a low voice from behind.
Lu Yuanqiu: "I secretly see what she does after she gets up."
Sister Li smiled from behind, "What else can I do? Brush my teeth and wash my face. Wash the sheets and quilt covers on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Today is Sunday. After washing, I'll go to the rooftop to dry them. Then I'll use my stove to cook rice porridge. When it's done, her father will probably wake up naturally. I can recite what she did in the morning with my eyes closed."
Lu Yuanqiu: "So powerful?"
Sister Li smiled and said, "That's right. This girl is too self-disciplined. She gets up at five o'clock every day and does everything she should do. It's hard to guess wrong."
Hearing this, Lu Yuanqiu looked down at his watch. It was now five o'clock and one minute, and he didn't hear any ringing sound coming from next door.
Is this the self-discipline of a top student?
At this time, Bai Qingxia was wearing an old men's jacket and she was walking past the window with her hand tied in a simple ponytail. Lu Yuanqiu dodged for a moment, then looked again and found that she had walked to the end of the corridor and started washing at the sink over there.
After washing up, Lu Yuanqiu watched her return to the room and brought out a large red round basin and a small stool. The girl walked back and forth, holding the sheets and quilt covers, her movements were neither hurried nor slow, as if the process had become a habit.
Seeing her start to wash, Lu Yuanqiu turned around and said, "Sister Li, you should take a rest first."
"Okay, you two go play, and the boys can help her with the physical work, like twisting the quilt or something, it's hard for her to do it alone."
Zhang Li stood up and said this, Lu Yuanqiu nodded, he quietly opened the door of the room and walked out.
The girl was at the end of the corridor, sitting on a small stool, wearing a worn men's jacket, and scrubbing the sheets in a plastic basin with her head down.
Lu Yuanqiu quietly approached her from behind, looked to the side, and found a plastic bag on the ground next to her. The bag contained a bunch of red vests of supermarket employees, a total of about ten pieces.
“What do you do with the supermarket vest?”
Lu Yuanqiu asked puzzledly from behind.
The girl was startled and hit her head against the railing next to her. Lu Yuanqiu quickly put his hand on it, and Bai Qingxia's head hit his palm.
"Why...why are you here?"
She gasped and looked at Lu Yuanqiu with confusion and surprise.
Lu Yuanqiu looked down and found that she was still wearing a pair of large blue plastic slippers. Because the size was seriously wrong, her small white feet were about to slip out of the front of the slippers, like a child who had stolen her father's shoes.
cute.
