"Mother......"

"Mother......"

"mom!"

The boy suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling, his mind was in chaos.

Yes, he couldn't tell how many times he had dreamed of the woman lying in a pool of blood.

Desperately, reluctantly, only leaving him with that helpless look.

Glancing at the time, the alarm clock hadn't rung yet, but he was no longer sleepy.He lifted the quilt and walked into the bathroom, but stopped suddenly when he reached the door. He glanced back at the pitifully small house, without any emotion in his eyes, turned and walked into the bathroom.

He still lived in that magnificent villa a month ago, but now he doesn't belong there anymore, that house has been filled with ugliness after his father was designed to cause bankruptcy, sickness and death, and his mother committed suicide with unbearable pain, Devoured by greed.

Before his mother died, he secretly left him a card in his name. He checked the money in that card. It was obtained by selling all the jewelry and part of the real estate before the mother left, plus some ordinary savings. The amount in it was enough for him to live affluently for at least 20 years, but he didn't move because he knew that a group of greedy people were eyeing him, and they were very concerned about his family's inexplicably disappeared property.

The thoughts of memories were withdrawn, I turned off the hot water, put on my clothes, picked up a towel to cover my head, and went out.

Time 7:30, what a coincidence.

Today is his second day at work, at the U bar, but today is his first day at work. The manager only agreed to his application yesterday afternoon. He simply told him some rules and let him go back.He didn't go to the so-called big company to find a job, even though he had already been familiar with the so-called business in his father's company, but he wanted to stay away from his father's path, which was a life he would never set foot in again.

He knew that with his face, it would be easy to find a job with sufficient food and clothing in such a busy place.

Putting on the sweater, he chuckled at himself in the mirror, took the phone and went out.

The second hand moved, and finally jumped to 12 o'clock with the sound of closing the door.

......

"Come on!" The meticulous manager in a suit is incompatible with this seemingly luxurious place. He is more like the lobby manager in a large company who welcomes distinguished guests, but at this moment his slightly worldly face makes Jin Tuo erase this idea.

"Hello, Manager Li."

"Today, you and Lia are in charge of private rooms No. 6-10 on the second floor. All the guests here are distinguished guests, so don't dare to neglect them."

"Got the manager, but, Leah..."

"Oh! Yes!" Manager Li turned to look at the bar, raised his voice and shouted over there, "Leah!"

Following Manager Li's gaze, I saw a tall man jump off the bar chair, turn around and walk towards them.

That man looks really good-looking.

he thinks.

In a blink of an eye, the man had already walked to them, and stood aside without saying a word.

"Leah, this is the new employee who arrived yesterday, take him with you today."

"My name is Jin Tuo." He looked at him.

"En." The man was reticent, hummed a word before turning around and leaving.

Jin Tuo looked at Manager Li blankly, only to see Manager Li's chin shaking in the direction of Leah.Before she could react, Lia, who was walking away, stopped and looked back at Jin Tuo.

"Aren't you leaving?"

"Go... let's go." Jin Tuo quickly followed.

Looking at the man's back, there was a warm feeling.

Walking up to the second floor, Leah stopped suddenly, leaned against the wall of the corridor, took out a cigarette and lighter, and lit them familiarly.

Jin Tuo looked at the man's familiar movements, and wanted to persuade him, but stopped because of the strange barrier.

"How did you come to such a place?" Lia exhaled a circle of smoke, and turned her head to look at Jin Tuo.

"Life."

Lia raised her eyebrows and stared into Jin Tuo's eyes, "It's a lie."

Jin Tuo avoided his gaze, but still felt extremely embarrassed.

Indeed, he should have pawned his famous brand and went to a roadside stall to buy some clothes to wear.

"You care a little too much."

"Hmm, indeed." Leah stood up straight, crushed out half of the cigarette, threw it into the trash can, and walked straight forward, "Work."

"..."

"And you."

The man stopped, crossed his hands behind his head, "Life." Then he raised his footsteps again.

Jin Tuo stopped answering the call and followed slowly.

……

Jin Tuo couldn't help feeling sick when he looked at the man with a big belly in front of him.He just came over to open a bottle of red wine for them, caught a glimpse of the middle-aged man's wretched gaze, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Leah standing behind him.

After pouring the wine, he was about to stand up straight and leave, when the middle-aged man grabbed Jin Tuo's hand and pulled it towards him.

"Let go!" he warned in a low voice.

"Hey, not only the face, but also the temper is quite to my liking, Leah, this newcomer is not bad." The man said smugly.

Jin Tuo tried to break free from the man's hand, but found that his slender frame was no match for the fat middle-aged man.In his panic, he could only look at Leah again, but this time there was more help in his eyes.

Leah's eyes darkened, and she didn't want to pay attention to this matter, but after seeing the helplessness in the man's eyes, she overthrew the city wall in her heart.

"Boss Zhao, what a coincidence," Leah grabbed the man's arm, "This is mine."

"Eh..." Boss Zhao couldn't help shivering when he looked at Leah's eyes.Leah is well-known in the U bar. Last month, a person who spoke badly to him was seriously injured by him, but he was suppressed. Everyone said that Leah was supported by someone behind him. He came to U just for fun. .Thinking of this, Boss Zhao had no choice but to let go, in order not to lose face in front of his friends, he said with a sneer, "Since I belong to Leah, I don't want to take advantage of others, hahahaha..."

Lia took Jin Tuo's hand and led him outside, "Thank you, Boss Zhao, for your understanding."

"you are welcome……"

Ignoring the man's flirting, Jin Tuo clearly heard Lia's disdainful hum when he closed the door.

"Thank you." It was still in the corridor at the beginning. Since his parents passed away, no one has stood up for him like this.

"You're welcome." Leah let go of Jin Tuo's hand, "You shouldn't be allowed to go to that private room today, that fat pig is notoriously disgusting."

"But……"

"Don't worry, there are very few people like this. This is not that kind of messy place. Anyone who can come to the second floor has status."

After speaking, Lia went to the exclusive bar on the second floor.

What Jin Tuo wanted to say was suddenly choked up.

He wanted to ask if he would offend the guests.

Will someone seek revenge?

But looking at the back, he had no choice but to swallow the words he couldn't say.

He is actually a very warm person.

Jin Tuo thought.

……

"You send these wines to private room No. 7." Leah took out three bottles of red wine from the wine cabinet, pushed them in front of Jin Tuo, hesitated for a while before opening her mouth, "Call me if you need anything."

Jin Tuo picked up the wine, "It seems that you are just a soft-spoken person, Xiaoya."

Leah looked at the figure of the man going away, and suddenly her throat was choked.

Xiaoya... Xiaoya...

After my mother passed away, no one called this name like that. What kind of monster is that man?

Jin Tuo knocked on the door, and he opened the door when a word of "please come in" came from inside. There were only three men in the private room, each of whom was meticulously dressed and had an inaccessible aura. I'm used to seeing it, but I don't have any thoughts in my heart.

"Excuse me, I'm here to bring you wine." After corking the bottle and about to pour the wine, one of the men spoke.

"Let it go."

"?" Jin Tuo first met the man's eyes.

"go out."

Jin Tuo looked at the man, not knowing what to do.

Another man next to him also said, "Leave it alone, we will do it ourselves."

Jin Tuo had no choice but to put down the wine bottle and exit quietly. When he turned around and closed the door, he looked at the face of the man who spoke first. closed.

That stern tone really matched his appearance.

Jin Tuo was about to go to the bar, but turned around and went to the toilet.Looking at himself in the mirror, Jin Tuo washed his face with cold water, growling in his heart, wake up!

After drying his face and hands, he was surrounded by a tall figure as soon as he walked out of the toilet. Jin Tuo subconsciously put his right arm against the person in front of him, and at his height of 1.7 meters, he had to raise his head to meet the man. Looking at the line of sight, it was the stern man who caught his eyes.

Bei Li looked at the person in front of him, the bangs that were wet on his forehead were still dripping, this seductive look made Bei Li couldn't help but kiss his lips.

Jin Tuo froze suddenly, but didn't know what to do.

Bei Li kissed him for a few minutes before releasing him. Looking at Jin Tuo who still hadn't reacted, he said slowly, "My name is Bei Li, and I like you very much."

Looking at the man in front of him, Jin Tuo couldn't help feeling a chill, and all the good feelings for him in his heart were suddenly wiped out.But I heard the man say, "I'm serious, stay with me, I can protect you, and take you out of here."

Jin Tuo, who was about to resist, relaxed his vigilance when he heard the sentence "I can protect you".

Bei Li looked at him in a daze, and hugged him into his arms, "I am rich and powerful, and I can protect you well. I have no one around me now."

After Jin Tuo reacted, he found that there was something called moving in his eyes.

"Ah."

This man is rich and handsome, the important thing is that he promised to protect him, why should he not agree.

Besides, he needs someone to make him stronger.

Maybe everything is too sudden, but for Jin Tuo, life is like this, diverse and fickle.

But when he faced Leah's puzzled gaze, he still lacked confidence.

"I'm going to resign. Thank you for your help today. I hope to see you again in the future." He looked at Leah's face, which was familiar but unfamiliar.

Leah glanced at the man not far away, then turned her gaze to Jin Tuo, "It's none of my business." Then she turned and went to get wine from the wine cabinet.

"Take care." Jin Tuo said.

This is the first time in a month that someone warms him up.

When he turned around, he seemed to hear the man say, "Protect yourself."

Jin Tuo smiled without looking back, "Thank you."

Looking at the smile on Jin Tuo's face, Bei Li in the distance couldn't help being a little stunned, but his eyes immediately became sharp, and the doubt in his heart made him subconsciously look at the man behind Jin Tuo.It wasn't until Jin Tuo came up to him and took his hand that he turned his attention back to Jin Tuo.

Some meet for no reason, and some fall in love for no reason.
