When we finished eating and were about to pay the bill, we seemed to hear a noise coming from the kitchen.
"Tell me, how do you do this?" "It seems to be the voice of a middle-aged man. His voice is rough and thick, and based on my ability at recognizing people by their voices, I feel that this middle-aged man with a fat body should be the boss." In less than a month, you've already broken more than ten of my bowls. For someone as careless as you, what are you going to do about it in the future? "
"Ah Qin looked at the fragments of this land and was evidently at a loss as to what to do. "Sorry, boss, I didn't mean to." As Ah Qin spoke, she subconsciously picked it up. Maybe it was because the tears blurred her eyes and she couldn't see clearly, so she was accidentally pierced by a piece of the plate on her finger and immediately, bright red blood flowed out. Ah Qin seemed to have already lost all consciousness of pain, she only stared blankly at her.
"Ah Qin, this is your monthly salary, so I won't bother about the dishes you destroyed. Don't come back tomorrow. "Sigh!" The boss gave Ah Qin an envelope.
"No, boss, I beg you, please don't drive me away. "Give me another chance, I'll definitely work hard." Ah Qin did not accept the letter, she looked at the owner with a pious look. She could tell that Ah Qin really needed a job.
The owner looked at her with disdain, "This is not a shelter. The money is on the counter. Do you want it or not? " After saying that, the boss left.
Suddenly, Ah Qin fell to her knees. Her eyes were filled with tears, looking pitifully at the boss, but the boss was not moved. Boss, I really beg of you. Give me one more chance, one last time. "
Ah Qin's reaction frightened all the people in the restaurant, they looked at the sudden scene and were dumbfounded. Li Nanchuan and I didn't think that Ah Qin would actually do such a thing.
The owner sighed and took out several dozen more hundred-dollar bills and put them in the envelope. I saw this action in my eyes. I knew that the boss wasn't that vicious and always wanted to squeeze out the employees. It was just that because of Ah Qin's naughtiness, the boss could only use this method to help Ah Qin. However, if Ah Qin was kept working in the shop, that would exceed the owner's bottom line.
The boss shook his head. After putting the money in the envelope, I left without looking back. I probably went to the restaurant's inner hall.
"What should we do? "What about Daddy's illness?" Ah Qin cried, but no one came to help her. Faced with this kind of matter that had nothing to do with them, most people were just watching from the sidelines.
I walked forward and hugged Ah Qin in my embrace, gently patting her back. "It's alright, you must believe that the heavens will not leave no way for you. There must be a way. "
I looked at Li Nanchuan, and seeing his eyes, I immediately understood what he meant. It was just that he was too embarrassed to show his face in these places.
"Ah Qin, your father's illness … Is it serious? " I asked.
"A few days ago... My father. He … He went to the market and... In the end... I was hit by a car when I got back. Now that I'm paralyzed in bed, I'm the only source of income for our family. " Because he felt too much sadness and remorse, Ah Qin's voice was still choked with sobs. Thus, he spoke in a stuttering manner.
From Ah Qin's tone, it seemed that she and her paralyzed father were the only ones left in their house. I stood up and picked up the money from the counter, which Ah Qin had worked hard to earn, after all. Take it. How long can you hold it? "
Actually, it won't be long now. I believe that Li Nanchuan will definitely not sit idly by the side and watch. I added in my mind.
Ah Qin did not reject her offer. She accepted the income, although it was not a lot, she could still go out and find a job no matter how long she could hold on. "Thank you, sister. You really are a good person." Ah Qin said to me. Hearing her say that, I felt a little embarrassed. If it wasn't for the fact that she looks so similar to Ah Qi, we wouldn't have come to this place and we wouldn't have met her, so we coincidentally helped her. Perhaps all of this was destined to happen in the underworld!
"Ah Qin, where is your home? We'll send you back. " Li Nanchuan said.
At this time, Ah Qin also finally felt that something was amiss, she looked at the two of us in surprise.
"Why are you so good to me?"
Hearing Ah Qin's words, I became speechless. Could it be that this society had come to a point where no matter who it was, there was a reason for it? Although Ah Qin had a good sense of security, she knew better. But there was no need for her to guard against us.
"Because you look so much like my friend." I stressed this issue once again, which was also for Li Nanchuan and myself to hear. Ah Qi was already dead, no matter how much she looked like, she wouldn't be able to replace her.
I took out the photo of Ah Qi from my bag and handed it over to Ah Qin. Look, this photo shows Ah Qi smiling so brilliantly! Ah Qi took her last step into desperation, so who forced her to do so?
When Ah Qin saw that photo, she opened her eyes wide. This kind of reaction was within my expectations, because Ah Qin saw the person in the photo as if she had seen another person, so it was definitely because she was extremely shocked, and even doubted the authenticity of the photo.
Ah Qin read it again and again, and finally believed the words I had spoken. Perhaps it was because she had experienced too much when she was young that she developed a character that didn't trust others.
"I really didn't think that there would be two people who looked exactly the same in this world." After Ah Qin finished looking at this picture, she exclaimed, "Oh yes, I still don't know how to address you all."
