sunken square

Chapter 18 Dead Knot

The apron strap was accidentally tied in a knot.

Chen Yue put down his hands calmly and turned around, Guan Rong nodded at him.Still so bland.Chen Yuezhi's embarrassment suddenly disappeared.Presumably Guan Rong has no mind and no interest in finding out why he insisted on returning the umbrella.

Not everything needs a beginning and an end, nor does everything need a why.After such a comparison, he suddenly felt a little naive.

Guan Rong came over with the bread, and Lei Ge smiled and asked, "How is the business of Boss Guan?"

"Same as usual." Guan Rong replied politely, but asked in an unkind manner.Lei Ge seemed to be used to his way of treating people, so he smiled without any surprise.

After paying the bill, Guan Rong finally looked at Chen Yuechi and said, "Drink more water when you have a cold."

Chen Yue nodded hurriedly: "I will, you go slowly."

"Boss Guan, walk slowly."

When Guan Rong left, Lei Ge sighed twice.Chen Yue looked at him curiously, but he didn't say anything.

Sure enough, even Lei Ge still has a grudge about his career.

Chen Yue kept thinking, but Guan Rong is so generous and magnanimous, so what if he is in this line of work, what can he do?

Lei Ge is not usually in the store, but today he has not left until noon.It wasn't until Chen Yuechi was supposed to go to work at the convenience store that he asked, "Boy, why don't you go to work? Today's shift is changed from your colleague's?"

Chen Yuechi suddenly realized that he was waiting for him.He said frankly, "Brother Lei, I resigned."

"Resigned?" Lei Ge was surprised.

Chen Yuechi nodded: "Resigned."

Lei Ge didn't ask any more questions, and got up quickly: "Okay, then you look at the store, I'm leaving."

"My sister asked for leave?" Chen Yuechi asked.

Lei Ge sighed: "This girl doesn't know what's going on, she's been very busy these two days, coming and going in a hurry."

Chen Yuechi didn't see her sister until noon the next day. She looked like she hadn't slept for several days. When Chen Yuechi asked, she replied that she was too busy with homework.

"You don't even know how difficult our professional courses are!" My sister said resentfully, "You will know after listening!"

Sometimes the more energetic a person is, the more exaggerated they will be.Chen Yue smiled tolerantly: "Then I definitely don't understand."

The younger sister yawned and stretched: "Brother Yue must have been a smart and good student when he was studying."

Chen Yue shook his head: "No, he is an idiot."

After a few jokes, seeing that she seemed to be in better condition, he shut up.After taking a break from work, my sister suddenly asked, "Do you still have a fever? Your voice is still hoarse."

"It's over." Chen Yuechi said, "I don't feel anything on my body anymore."

The younger sister laughed and said, "Your teacher Guan treats you well!"

"What?" Chen Yue didn't understand.

Sister: "I originally wanted to visit you, but I only know which park you live in, not your specific door number. As a result, Mr. Tianguan came the day before yesterday. I asked him if he knew where your home was, and he said let me Don't worry, the fever is gone."

"I didn't expect a person like him to take care of others!"

Chen Yue was startled.He never expected that the person who came to take care of him would be Guan Rong.When did he know he was sick?When did you find out where his family lived?Did you think he was weird that night so you followed him all the time?

Then why didn't you reveal anything when you came here yesterday?

Chen Yue took out his phone, wanting to thank Guan Rong.While hesitating, he opened the text messages he had sent to him before.

It turned out that he and Guan Rong had so many text messages without knowing it, and they were often nonsense.Guan Rong said that the bottle spilled the milk on his clothes, but did not say that it smelled like milk after it dried, and said that the bookmarks made from the leaves of the pear tree were pretty nice.Guan Rong said that the taste of milk is better than the taste of wine. He said that when they were young, the teacher taught them to make it with osmanthus leaves. The leaves of pear trees are relatively soft, and it is not easy to shape after being boiled.

"Is there any bread today?"

"Yes. I keep it for you."

"Why do you feel the milk flavor is stronger today?"

"Have you tasted it? Actually, I learned how to make it today. If you don't like this, you can ask the master to make it tomorrow."

"Need not."

"The bookstore on the street seems to be deserted every day."

"That might be closing down."

"I've always wanted to go in and have a look, but I never had a chance."

"Next time you pass by, go straight in."

Finally turned to the top.Chen Yuechi still didn't send a text message.He didn't know that he was such a tweaker before.

I feel that after coming to the sunken square, people's emotions are also wet, just like the autumn here.

By the time the cold got better, autumn was almost over, and many people were already wearing winter clothes.Chen Yuechi has been working in the bakery during this time, while still looking for a part-time job.Lei Ge said that he was desperate, and his sister asked him to rest more, but he just smiled and said thank you.

Ever since he resigned, Chen Yuechi always avoided the convenience store, and when the weather cleared up, he only took that route again when he was in a hurry.

Passing by the bookstore, he saw something pasted on the door, Chen Yuechi strode past, thought about it and then looked back.It was found that it was not a notice of closure of the store, but a recruitment notice.

Chen Yuechi repeated the confirmation three times, and wrote down the above contact number.

Back to the rental house in the afternoon, Chen Yuechi tried to make a phone call.Opposite was a woman, and asked who he was, he said my name was Chen Yuechi, and asked what he was doing, he said he was applying for a job, and said he made a typo, so he hung up.

Chen Yuechi was confused and looked at the number he dialed just now.When remembering the numbers, I checked them several times, and it should be fine.

He put down his mobile phone to take a shower, and when he came out, he found a missed call, which was the landline number he called just now.

This time, I called and asked him what was the matter. He replied, "Hello, I saw a recruitment notice posted on the door of your bookstore. I would like to ask what are the requirements."

The person on the other side was very straightforward: "Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, I will have an interview in the bookstore."

"Ah?" Chen Yuechi didn't react for a while.

He asked, "Any questions?"

Chen Yuechi: "Excuse me, what should I prepare?"

"No, people can come."

Hang up again.

Chen Yue put down his hands suspiciously, suspecting that he was a liar.But he is a person with nothing, even if he is a liar, what can he lie to?

After saying hello to the cake shop the next day, Chen Yuechi went to the bookstore.The recruitment notice at the door of the bookstore has disappeared.

The door was open, and the direction of the counter was still blocked by the bookshelf, so it was impossible to tell whether the boss was there or not.Chen Yuezhi wanted to knock on the door, but after the rolling shutter door was pushed up, there was a thick glass door that could not be knocked.

"Hi, is anyone there?" he called from the door.

no respond.After standing for a while, he called "Excuse me" and walked in.

The bookshelves inside are densely packed and filled with books, most of which are old, and you can tell how old they are at a glance.The aisle between bookshelves is very narrow, and basically only one person can pass through.

Chen Yuechi walked to the counter, only to find that the bookstore has a second floor.On the left side of the counter, an escalator leads to the top, which should be an attic.

"Hello, is there anyone?" Chen Yuechi raised his head and shouted, "Excuse me, I'm here to apply for the job!"

Finally, there were footsteps on the floor, and someone appeared on the stairs and said, "Sorry, I didn't hear it just now with headphones on. You came on time."

Chen Yue remained in place in a daze.
