Unfair Love of Mr Mu - chapter 7
Chapter 7
Recently, my mother has been eating without much appetite, and her face is not very good, covering her stomach and looking very uncomfortable. Aunt Li took her to a nearby clinic for some stomach medicine, but it still didn’t get better. I was a bit worried and planned to take her to the hospital for a check-up when I was off duty in a few days.
The work in the supermarket is tiring, but the shift time is early, and a newly opened high-end restaurant in the city needs some waiters, so I tried to ask, and they happened to be able to reverse the day and night shifts, so I took this job.
Now I get off work at the supermarket every day, go back in a hurry to eat a few mouthfuls of food, and then rush to the restaurant. My mother doesn’t understand what I’m doing outside, but every time I come home, she gives me the money she made selling waste that day, and she looks very happy when I take it. I will put that money into the yellow cloth bag when she is not paying attention, and look at her being deceived and still laughing on the side, and my heart is only warm.
One night at work, it seemed that some very important guests came to the restaurant, and the supervisor hurriedly adjusted a few people from our group. It was the most expensive private room in the restaurant. The whole room is completely Chinese style, and the most eye-catching thing is a large lantern lampshade hanging from the ceiling in the middle, with some crystal chandeliers hanging down in the middle. I was almost stunned, and was grabbed by the supervisor and rushed to the door of the room before I came back to my senses.
After a while, the manager led a group of people over, and I only took a glance from a distance, and I was stunned on the spot.
Lin Han, one of Yi Tian’s best friends, the person who hates me the most in the world.
Back then, it was Lin Han who sent people to beat me into a serious injury after I took photos to threaten Yi Tian. In fact, I can understand that kind of deep hatred. After all, it’s a person who has been in love for 20 years since childhood, and was taken away by others in that way. If it were me, I would probably hate it to the point of madness.
A group of people walked closer and closer, and I didn’t dare to avoid them too obviously, so I tried to act calmly and lowered my head slightly, praying in my heart that he wouldn’t notice me. One step, two steps… When Lin Han walked past me, I was so nervous that I clenched my fists, and after he passed, I let out a breath in secret.
“Wait a minute.” Lin Han suddenly turned around and walked to me, “Raise your head.”
A group of people all stopped and looked at this side, and I couldn’t avoid it anymore, so I had to raise my head and look at him calmly and ask, “What can I do for you, sir?”
Lin Han’s pupils suddenly enlarged, and after being stunned for a second, he suddenly laughed uncontrollably.
“Young Master Lin, is there a problem?” The manager rushed over with a face full of tension and fear.
“No, no… there is no problem at all.” Lin Han waved his hand, wiped the tears that were laughed out from the corners of his eyes, and seemed to be in a very good mood and walked in. The manager hurried
ly followed, and before leaving, he frowned and looked at me.
I sighed in my heart, Lin Han’s character is very clear to me, since I was seen by him, he would not let me go so easily, no matter whether this restaurant is his or not, as long as he wants me to leave, I can only obediently leave. This society is not fair, facing someone like Lin Han, I have no room to fight back.
Sure enough, when serving the dishes, the manager came over with a face full of unease and asked me, “What’s the matter between you and Young Master Lin? Do you know each other?”
I shook my head. The manager sighed, “You must not cause any trouble for me, or how can I explain to the superiors.” I smiled bitterly in my heart, looking at the current situation, there must be trouble. As for how to cause trouble, and how serious it is, it’s not up to me.
When I went in, two colleagues were serving the dishes, and Lin Han looked at me and said with a smile, “Come on, help me pour a cup of tea.”
I walked over silently, took the teapot from the colleague who was looking at me helplessly, and bowed down to fill the tea cup in front of Lin Han. The other people also noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and they all stopped talking and laughing.
After filling the tea, I put down the teapot and was about to go out when my calf was suddenly kicked hard. Because there was no preparation, I fell to the ground due to the imbalance.
Before I could react, a plate of food fell on me. Fortunately, the temperature of the food was not too high, and I was not scalded, but the greasy body was very embarrassed.
Lin Han exclaimed in surprise, “Ah, I’m really sorry, my hand slipped.” The surroundings were so quiet that there was no sound at all, and no one dared to speak.
I struggled to stand up, and the oil from the food on my body dripped down due to the movement. I wiped off the oil that had splashed on my face and walked out without saying a word.
“Stop.” The lazy voice of Lin Han came from behind, “Did I say you can leave?”
I sighed in my heart.
If it were a few days ago, I would definitely turn around now and pour a plate of food on his head, and the worst thing would be to be beaten to death, and I didn’t care. But now I have a home, and my mute and silly mother is waiting for me at home. If I die, what should she do? I can’t let her lose her child for the second time.
So I can only stop, turn around, and look 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 spat it out, frowning and saying, “What a terrible thing to drink.” Then he looked up at me and was about to say something but suddenly stopped, widened his eyes, and looked at the back of me.
I noticed something, turned around, and it was Yi Tian.
In an instant, it seemed to be back to five years ago.
At that time, I was still in college, and I would work part-time in a restaurant near the school every night to earn tuition. One night, I met some drunk gangsters who were deliberately making trouble. When one of them kicked me down and picked up the food on the table and wanted to throw it on me, he was stopped.
“I say, are you guys getting a bit too much?” Yi Tian held the wrist of that person, took the plate of food, and looked at it expressionlessly, pouring it from the head of the other party.
Then there was a melee between the two sides.
I stared blankly at the boy in front of me who was the same age as me, moving beautifully to dodge the attack, punching neatly, and knocking down the hooligans who were cursing one by one. Such a strong vitality, an indifferent and absolutely confident demeanor, and a dark and humble me, he seemed to be shining as a whole.
So Yi Tian can’t blame me for entangling him like this. If a person who has been living in the dark sees light and feels warmth one day, how can he not want to try every means to keep that warm light around him forever? But now, I stood in front of Yi Tian with greasy clothes and embarrassment, as if to draw a ridiculous full stop to that encounter five years ago.
The manager stood behind Yi Tian, and when he saw me, his eyes were about to come out. He hurriedly ran over and scolded, “How did you mess up!” Before I could explain, Lin Han’s voice came from behind: “Manager Li, how can the waiter here not even serve food?” The manager’s head almost bowed to the ground: “Young Master Lin, I’m really sorry, this one is new, and I will change someone right away!”
“But I really want him to serve today. What should I do?” I turned around and was facing Lin Han’s cold gaze. The manager was sweating profusely and didn’t know what to do, and the atmosphere in the private room was becoming more and more tense.
At this time, Yi Tian walked past us and came to Lin Han, patted him on the head, and said with a warning in his voice: “Don’t make trouble.”
Lin Han pouted and said unhappily, “Okay, okay, go out.” The manager was relieved and pulled me out while apologizing.
When I walked out, I thought in a daze, probably they wouldn’t be willing to let go until they destroyed the last bit of warmth and beauty in my heart.
