half thorns, half joy

"Ah—" Accompanied by a short scream, Tang Xuan slipped, and poured the coffee in her hand at the middle-aged man.

The man's white shirt was wet a lot in an instant.

"What are you eating!" The coffee was hot, the man pushed away the chair and stood up, cursing and frantically wiping his shirt.

Tang Xuan moved her body so that her back was facing Xiao Zihan and Cai Jinyu. From an angle where no one could see except the middle-aged man, she showed a sneering expression.

The expression of disdain and contempt was captured by the middle-aged man, and the man's anger was instantly ignited.

"Slap—" The man slapped Tang Xuan on the face, pointed at Tang Xuan's nose and cursed, "I think you intended to throw me a blow, didn't you?"

"I'm sorry..." Tang Xuan bowed her head and apologized to the man.

The coffee shop is not big, and the two of them made such a big movement that the whole coffee shop turned to look at it.

After Xiao Zihan saw Tang Xuan being slapped by the man, he jumped up and walked to Tang Xuan's side, pulled Tang Xuan behind him, frowned and asked the man, "Isn't it because I accidentally spilled coffee on you? Why did you hit someone?"

"It's none of your business. She burned me and ruined my shirt. Why can't I hit her?" Seeing that Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan looked like young students, the man immediately acted like a social person and showed off. : "My shirt is a famous brand, if it is damaged, can she afford it?"

When Tang Xuan heard this, she immediately lowered her head and kept apologizing to the man, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stain your shirt. I'm really sorry."

"Cut, what a disappointment." Seeing that his intimidation had worked, the man immediately grew imposing, and scolded, "I don't want to hear your explanation. Tell your manager to come out. I want to talk to him."

If you want to call the manager, I'm afraid I won't be able to work here anymore.Thinking of this, Tang Xuan's face turned pale with fright, and she trembled slightly.

Xiao Zihan saw Tang Xuan's fear in his eyes, he was about to defend Tang Xuan when Cai Jinyu suddenly appeared.

Cai Jinyu leaned on the man, took advantage of his height, quickly turned out the man's collar, took a look at the label, and said slowly: "I still think it's a famous brand, it's just a second-tier people-friendly, where did you buy this shirt? , buy it in the United States, 150 to [-] dollars, if you buy it in China, it’s only [-] dollars.”

"It's so expensive..." Tang Xuan murmured.

The man pushed Cai Jinyu away. Although he was skeptical about Cai Jinyu guessing the price of his shirt, seeing Tang Xuan's surprised expression, he immediately stiffened again, "You're right, can she afford it?"

"It's worth it."

Xiao Zihan opened his mouth lightly, and instantly several people looked at Xiao Zihan.

"Your dress is not a work of art, nor is it a high-end dress that can only be worn once. If it is dirty, you can send it to the dry cleaner to be washed. You have to embarrass a working girl like this. It's really..." Xiao Zihan sneered, As he spoke, he took out the wallet from his pocket, pulled out a wad of foreign currency and handed it to the man, "I will compensate you, and you apologize to her."

"What?" The man took the money and stopped counting the money.

"Didn't you hit her because she stained your shirt? I'll buy you a new shirt now. To be fair, let her hit her back." Cai Jinyu chimed in.

The man gritted his teeth, "Don't make trouble for no reason! Where's the manager! Where's the manager of this store!"

The manager who stood watching the show slowly stepped forward, and said to the middle-aged man with a smile on his face, "Sir, it's her fault that our employee did something wrong, and I'll apologize to you here too."

"Hmph! Hands and feet, can you do things!" After getting the manager's apologetic smile, the man stood up again.

"Sorry, sorry." The manager nodded with a smile, and suddenly changed the topic: "Employees have done something wrong, we will teach them well, but I won't bother you to discipline them for us."

"What did you say—"

The manager didn't give the man a chance to speak at all, interrupted the man and continued: "Sorry, our store doesn't welcome violent customers, please leave."

"you--"

"You've already taken the money, and you've already beaten the person, so don't let me call the police to deal with it." The manager spoke mercilessly, but he still had a smile on his face, and the man who watched took a step back.

Cai Jinyu moved his wrist very cooperatively, and said deliberately: "Who knows how to fight, it's been a long time since I fought."

"I'm sick!" Seeing that the situation was not right, the man grabbed his briefcase and left in despair.

As soon as the man left, Tang Xuan turned around and bowed to the manager to apologize.

The manager glanced over Xiao Zihan and Cai Jinyu, turned his head, and said to Tang Xuan, "I don't blame you for this. I should have asked that person to apologize to you, but I can see that that person cannot apologize. I'm sorry you took that hit from him."

"I'm not wronged, I'm sorry for causing trouble to the store."

"Okay, don't apologize. It's time for you to get off work now. You and your friends go out to sit and calm down."

The troublemaker didn't know Xiao Zihan and Cai Jinyu, but the manager did.He had known for a long time that these two were children of rich families, especially Xiao Zihan, who had a deep background.

So when he saw that Xiao Zihan would stand up for Tang Xuan, he was surprised and even more happy.The employees in his store have such a good relationship with Mr. Xiao's family. As a businessman, he can think of too many benefits.

In the face of these interests, of course he would protect Tang Xuan.

"But……"

"Okay, don't worry about it. The manager told you to get off work, so you can get off work. We will accompany you to have a good meal and let off steam."

This was originally what Tang Xuan was thinking. Being urged by Cai Jinyu, she readily agreed.

After changing clothes and taking bags backstage, Tang Xuan said goodbye to the manager and left the coffee shop with Xiao Zihan.

"Where are we going to eat!" Cai Jinyu looked excited.

Xiao Zihan looked at the swollen palm marks on Tang Xuan's face and said with distress, "Let's eat later, go to the clinic first."

"Huh?" Cai Jinyu was puzzled.

Tang Xuan quickly waved her hands, "No need, it's just a slap in the face, it's nothing, it will be fine soon."

"Let's go for a while." Xiao Zihan said, winking at Cai Jinyu with a straight face.

Cai Jinyu saw that Xiao Zihan was telling him to go away, and he flattened his mouth unwillingly, but after meeting Xiao Zihan's serious eyes, he had no choice but to nod discouraged.

"Come with me." Xiao Zihan said softly to Tang Xuan.

"Okay." Tang Xuan didn't want to go to the clinic, but she could see that Xiao Zihan was very persistent, so she didn't push back.

Cai Jinyu stood where she was, watching Xiao Zihan and Tang Xuan go further and further away until they disappeared from her sight.

After standing there for a while, he took out his cell phone and sent Xiao Zihan a text message.

This guy, don't miss such a good opportunity to confess!
