Chapter 2 Listen to my explanation
Xiang Xiaoyuan has a good plan. He will graduate with a bachelor's degree in adult education next year. He has barely passed Level 4, so getting a degree won't be a problem.
Of course, I'm trying to do it by force, and I can't compliment my actual level.
But she didn't expect that the school's course schedule this semester would make Xiaoyuan very troubled.
One subject is scheduled on Friday night, one on Saturday afternoon, and one on Sunday morning. This makes Xiaoyuan extremely depressed. If there are classes, what should I do at night?
She works and lives in a remote suburb, and it's a two- to three-hour drive to school. After evening classes, there's no bus back.
Staying in a hotel every week is a huge expense for a girl whose monthly income is only 1,000 yuan. What's more, Xiang Xiaoyuan found a hotel, but she only had enough money to stay in a cheap small basement hotel, which was always full.
It caught her off guard.
She began to stay in the waiting room of Beijing Station again, waiting for the train back to the suburbs at 12:30 at night.
She couldn't sleep for long after taking a nearly two-hour train ride home, and then had to get up and take a more than two-hour bus ride back to the city. This kind of pain was simply a great test of one's will. She gritted her teeth and persisted.
Until one day the police noticed her and thought she was a child who had run away from home. She forgot her ID card and the police had to ask her mother to pick her up.
However, Xiaoyuan's family was far away in Tangshan. In the end, the team leader from the station came to pick her up, and the police severely criticized her, which made them dumbfounded. After they returned, she became a laughing stock.
But it's no wonder that Xiang Xiaoyuan's baby face looks like that of a child who hasn't grown up yet, and the team leader's daughter Ji Yanmeng, who is in the third grade of junior high school, looks more mature than her.
Ji Yanmeng never wanted to call Xiaoyuan sister, but always called her Xiaoyuanyuan. She even deliberately told her classmates that Xiang Xiaoyuan was her cousin, and none of her classmates didn't believe her.
In this way, accommodation has become a thorny and serious problem.
Looking at the numerous high-rise buildings in Beijing, I feel like there is no place to stand under my feet.
No money, no power, just a thick skin.
Xiang Xiaoyuan smiled humbly, and then discussed: "Look, I just want to find a place to live. Aren't you looking for a servant? I can do anything, and I am very diligent. And I have a formal job.
Those who are housekeepers are more secure. If they make any mistake, the monk can escape, but he cannot escape from the temple! Don’t you think so?"
The man looked at her for a while, then lowered his head to think about it, smiled and said, "Get in the car."
Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself: This person was forced to panic, and he could think of any trick.
The car stopped not far from a group of villas. This was a group of small villas built on sky-high land in Beijing. Their name was "Wangyue Terrace".
"You...live here?" Xiao Yuan was stunned with fright.
The man told her that she was not looking for a part-time worker, but her boss was looking for a part-time worker.
"Take his business card and call him at the door of the villa. Tell him that you are sent by the housekeeper. You can discuss the specific situation with him."
"But..." He frowned, showing a bit of embarrassment: "Don't tell me that I asked you to come."
"Okay! I promise!" Xiaoyuan was grateful, thinking that it would be nice if his boss was as kind as him.
Since the other party is the boss, he must be an old man. I hope he is a kind old man. Of course, it would be even better if he is an old lady.
Secretary Wang looked at Xiang Xiaoyuan's slender back and sighed, remembering that he had gone to Beijing alone after graduating from college. At that time, he had nothing but the courage of a calf who was not afraid of tigers.
He knew his boss's temper, but he still wanted to help this little girl who almost fell from the sky.
*******
Xiaoyuan checked the door number to make sure it was correct, then pressed the doorbell firmly.
The door opened with a whoosh, and a man in a gray suit walked out.
Oh my god! The first thing Xiang Xiaoyuan felt was that this person was really too tall! He was really too tall!
Compared to him, I look like a chicken.
And coupled with his expressionless but sharp-edged face, it’s like the dummy Mote placed in the shopping mall has been resurrected!
Xiang Xiaoyuan's instinctive reaction was to run away, but after only a few steps, he felt something was wrong.
Did you do anything wrong? Why did you run away? Then you came back.
"This housekeeping company is so irresponsible!" Before Xiaoyuan could finish being surprised, this person complained first.
"Why did you find a child?" He seemed very angry.
"I'm not a child." Xiaoyuan defended in a low voice.
"Come in!" He said expressionlessly.
Xiang Xiaoyuan felt uneasy, not knowing whether her impulsive decision was right or wrong.
She looked back at Nuo Da's villa area and wanted to retreat.
The people who live here must not be of average income, and their lives are incomprehensible to grassroots people like Xiaoyuan.
Just like he doesn't understand that a basement costs ten dollars a night, and a waiting room can be covered with a few newspapers for a night's sleep.
She instinctively stepped back, wanting to say sorry and run away without looking back.
"I let you in!" He was a little angry.
Xiaoyuan then puffed up her cheeks and reluctantly moved in, then stood still at the door.
At this moment, the scene before her eyes suppressed her inner panic, and she began to look at everything around her with wide eyes.
The house is much larger than I imagined. Just the entrance corridor is already larger than the living room of an average family.
The wooden floor extending inward was a khaki-colored original wooden floor. Xiaoyuan carefully stepped on it with her toes. The smooth and tough feeling was very comfortable.
She knelt down and took off her shoes and arranged them neatly by the door. The shoe cabinet on the other side was full of his leather shoes. Xiaoyuan's pair of small lace-up sneakers were like a small leaky fish, lonely and quiet.
fell aside.
She was thinking about how to introduce herself to Mr. Cheng.
Cheng Hao didn't say anything but looked at the little girl up and down. The girl looked very small and could not be more than 16 years old.
Judging from her clothing, she must be a child from a commoner family. She can't be said to be pretty, no, I should say she has no hair, so she can't be judged by whether she's beautiful or not, but her eyes are very bright.
Now these bright and clear crystal beads were scanning his house restlessly.
"You know what you want to do?" Cheng Hao was very rude.
Xiao Yuan nodded and said timidly: "I know..."
"Mr. Cheng, I would like to explain first that I am not from a housekeeping company." Xiaoyuan gritted her teeth and still stammered in her explanation.
"What?" Cheng Hao shouted.
"I can explain it." Xiaoyuan whispered.
"Who introduced you in?" Cheng Hao was a little angry.
Isn't this nonsense?
"It doesn't matter who introduced it, can you please listen to my explanation first..."
Xiaoyuan prayed pitifully, but this obviously did not move the hard-hearted Mr. Cheng.
"I'm very busy. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. I have something to do." He pushed Xiaoyuan out the door, threw her shoes out with him, and then started the car.
"Give me a chance!"
Xiang Xiaoyuan was not someone who gave up so easily. This further aroused her determination to fight to the end.
Cheng Hao saw in the rearview mirror a little girl running after the car with her bare feet. The way she shouted: "Listen to my explanation!" as she ran made him feel a little soft-hearted.
However, I still stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the villa.
Seeing Cheng Hao's car pushing her further and further away, Xiaoyuan became anxious and ran straight towards the fence of the villa.
Her crazy behavior attracted a group of security guards. Xiang Xiaoyuan climbed up the railing in an effort to intercept Cheng Hao from here. However, she didn't expect that her backpack was hung on the railing when she jumped. She was stuck there and could not get up or get off.
Can't get down either.
Cheng Hao got out of the car and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the security guards dragging her out, and walked over.
"Mr. Cheng, can you give me a chance to listen to my explanation before driving me away..."
The embarrassed Xiaoyuan never forgot this.
