Old Gao's words were impassioned, words like knives, hitting Hu Zi's heart!
If Du Ling wasn't Hu Zi's girlfriend, it wouldn't be a big deal if he was bent on making Du Ling feel bad for the restaurant, but as a boyfriend, what he did was not up to par.
As I watched the two of them, too many emotions welled up in my heart. I didn't talk to them. I picked up a glass of wine and took a sip. A pungent sensation ran down my throat and into my stomach. There was no smell of alcohol. I just felt the impact of alcohol on my body. I was like a surfboard shattered by the waves.
Hu Zi lowered his head and narrowed his eyes. After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, "Whatever I do is wrong, right?"
"If only you could realize your mistake, could you?"
"How do I know each other? I became a grandson for both ends of the restaurant. Is it easy for me to be a middleman? In the end, it turned out not to be human! What the hell did I do wrong?" Hu Zi stood up, and his hoarse roar was especially loud in the quiet hall.
Old Gao shook his head in agony.
Hu Zi continued, "When I went to the Yu xiangyuan, you didn't agree! Now that I want to stay at the Yu xiangyuan, you still don't agree. Am I fucking doing it for myself? I'm not doing it for the Xingyun hotel! For the sake of the hotel, I hope that both sides will make a compromise. Let me comfort Shi Yuan and persuade you! As Du Ling's boyfriend, I didn't stand up for her. Wasn't it me who was the loser? Do you think I'm happy that I did this?"
"Then why aren't you happier?" Old Gao also stood up and faced Hu Zi. He said loudly, "You think you're doing everything right. You think you're doing it for the restaurant. You think you've made a great sacrifice, but is that true? Yu xiangyuan, do hotels have to be destroyed if they are handed over to the Yu family? What the hell didn't happen? Are you sure you're a prophet? You don't dare fire Huang and the others. You're afraid that Shi Yuan will leave with all the employees. What can they do if they leave? Can't we afford this loss?"
"That's easy for you to say! I'll see what you do when everyone's gone! What if you can't hire anyone for the first anniversary? The reputation of the Xingyun hotel collapsed at once. It was not easy to open a shop, but it was a matter of minutes to close a shop! Then all our hard work will be in vain!"
"Can you stop talking about things that haven't happened yet? It didn't even happen, so tell me the way! There's a way out. Even if it did happen, would it really be like what you said? We wouldn't have thought of anything, would we? Do we have to die?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Hu Zi said, "Let's not talk about what didn't happen, let's talk about what happened. Just say your dad, something happened, and you're trying to figure it out! Do you have a way? You just watched your father get sentenced! The bald man surnamed zhou asked for the bill to come to our restaurant. Xing Yun's finger almost disappeared. Why didn't you think of a way at that time? Do you have a way?"
"Hu Zi, are you fucking crazy? What are you talking about Old Gao's father for!" There were not many sad things in anyone's heart. They quarreled and quarreled. It was too much to bring up the past and sprinkle salt on the wounds of their brothers.
"I'm crazy, I'm going crazy!"
Hu Zi screamed hysterically again. He scratched his head in pain, then grabbed the edge of the table with both hands and lifted the table in front of him!
Hu Zi seemed to have used all his strength. The four legs of the table were in the air. In an instant, the plates and bottles on the table fell to the ground. There was a clear and piercing sound. I stepped back subconsciously. The table knocked down the chair and then fell to the ground again. A dull sound like a knife plunged into my heart.
I saw chopsticks, food, wine, glass shards on the ground... The mess on the ground, it was like my mood, broken!
"What do you want?" Old Gao's eyes turned red and gave Hu Zi a shove.
Hu Zi fell to the ground hard, and his hand was pressing on a glass shard. I saw blood in the wine on the ground, dyeing the wine red, like a beautiful little red flower.
Hu Zi smiled, but his smile was especially ferocious. There was deep anger on his face. He gritted his teeth and stood up, then rushed over and punched Old Gao in the face!
Old Gao grabbed Hu Zi's hand and the two of them struggled. Soon, the two of them knocked over two tables and a lot of chairs. The whole hall was in a mess. Those voices pierced my ears like sharp arrows. They sounded especially painful!
I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, but I felt as if all my strength had flowed out of my hands, dragging my body as if it had been filled with lead. I walked up to the two of them and pulled them hard, shouting, "Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
But the two of them were like two tightly intertwined vines. I tried my best to separate them. I saw some blood on both of them, but I didn't know if it was Hu Zi's or Old Gao's!
After the two of them were separated, Hu Zi lay on the ground, and Old Gao sat on the ground. I pulled a chair and sat down, gasping for air.
None of the three of them spoke, and the only sound left in the room was the sound of us panting.
At this moment, I feel very tired, more tired than the busy day!
My heart is tired!
I looked at the two of them and didn't know what to say. I just felt so sad, so sad. My whole heart seemed to be blown by the endless wind, but I didn't feel cold, I didn't feel everything, I just felt that my eyes were as blurry and fake as chaos!
I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that on this day, the three of us could actually start a fight. We've known each other for so many years, and we've experienced so much. In the past, only we fought with others. Now, our own people and our own people started a fight?
What was it like to see my closest brothers fighting?
That feeling was like a glass of wine, mixed with vinegar, chili, salt, pepper, and expired milk poured into his mouth, speechless!
We are the best brothers. How did this happen?
What the hell is going on here?
When we were still underage, we often went crazy together. We were best friends. Now that we are almost at the age of standing, our feelings for more than ten years are more mellow than the fragrance of wine buried for more than ten years!
We didn't fight when we were young, but now we are mature, but we fight each other.
It felt like a joke!
Ridiculous!
Thinking about our struggle for the hotel this year, I feel bitter and bitter all over my heart, eyes and nose are full of sourness!
Very uncomfortable!
It's really uncomfortable!
At that time, I walked to Pucheng again with a feeling of trepidation and loneliness. At that time, Hu Zi was betrayed, quit his job and sold his house. Old Gao was experiencing the double hardships of love and family, and fell into the bottom of life. The three of us, together, started the road of starting a business.
We all lamented the desolation of the restaurant and were excited by the brilliance of the restaurant. We calculated which restaurant's food was cheaper, which restaurant's owner was better, which restaurant's cigarettes and wines were real and which ones were fake.
A year, not long, but a lot of things have happened, we have experienced a lot of ups and downs in this year!
Some people skipped the order, some smashed the shop, some drunk guests made trouble for the waiters, the restaurant chef changed, the table and chairs changed, the signs changed, and many of them changed, but the three of us were still together.
Back then, when Old Gao was asked to come to the restaurant, Old Gao and Hu Zi were beaten up, and I almost lost a finger, but we didn't blame each other, didn't hate each other, Hu Zi said that even if we sold the restaurant for Old Gao!
If something happens, let's fight it together!
We persevere, unite, work hard, sweat and blood, and come to this day.
It was the first anniversary of the restaurant!
On this day, Hu Zi and Old Gao started to move.
"Haha." Suddenly, Hu Zi laughed foolishly.
But his laughter sounded so sad, he was like a fool, smiling inexplicably, no one could understand what the laughter contained.
Hu Zi stood up from the ground and walked out of the restaurant, smiling and shaking.
I shouted at him, "What are you doing?"
Hu Zi didn't answer. He walked straight to the door. I gritted my teeth and followed him.
"Hu Zi."
I stood at the door and yelled at him.
Hu Zi did not look back. He stood alone in the dark, his figure hidden in the darkness. There was an indescribable sadness in his back!
He stretched out his right hand, then gently swung it, as if to say no more chasing, as if to say goodbye again, and I left.
I wanted to stop him, but a taxi had stopped and Hu Zi got in.
A feeling of powerlessness came over me, and suddenly I felt a sense of exhaustion from being hollowed out. I closed my eyes and took a few breaths of air, and my body gave a violent shiver.
I looked up at the bright moon in the sky and couldn't help but ask the vast starry sky, how could it be like this? It shouldn't be like this today!
Back in the house, Old Gao was still sitting on the ground, smoking a cigarette. When I looked at the mess in the restaurant again, I could only feel a surge of emotion rising to my nose. The taste was more choking than mustard oil!
Old Gao took a puff. He smoked so hard that he seemed to inhale all the smoke into his lungs.
I silently walked over and sat down beside him.
For a moment, there were too many words to say, and after so long, I didn't know where to start.
"Give me a cigarette." I said to Old Gao.
Old Gao looked at me doubtfully and still brought me a cigarette.
I held the cigarette in my hand, took Old Gao's lighter, and lit it. I've smoked a lot in my life with one hand. I don't like cigarettes.
There are two well-known sentences on each cigarette case. The non-smokers can't see them, and the smokers can't see them.
However, many people are so dependent on it, everyone has a way to relieve pain and trouble, perhaps this is the simplest method, so many people choose it.
An ordinary cigarette is more than 80 centimeters long, which is one or two minutes long, and this one or two minutes of swallowing can ease those worries, if not enough, then another cigarette.
It's like a piece of wood floating on the sea. You only feel safe if you hold on to it, and when that piece of wood is gone, fear drowns you like the sea.
Just like Old Gao at this moment, it seemed that only smoking could alleviate his inner pain!
However, if the pain was too deep and too great, even if it was more smoke, I am afraid it would not ease.
I accompanied him to smoke a cigarette, but this was not the way to relieve my troubles after all. I did not smoke again, just let the cigarette quietly burn in my hand.
When a cigarette was about to burn out, I looked at Old Gao and said, "Old Gao, in fact, the girl you secretly love is Du Ling, right?"
