When he returned to the rental house, he found that his clothes and luggage were thrown in a mess at the door. The door lock was no longer the original one, but had been replaced with a new one. So Ye Xingyu took out his mobile phone and found the landlord's phone number on it.
The number was dialed.
"Hello! Landlord? I am a resident of 702. I would like to ask..."
Before he finished speaking, he was ruthlessly interrupted by a rough voice on the other end of the phone.
"Stop being so nagging! Just pack your things and leave! I've already rented the house to someone else!"
Ye Xingyu was unhappy when he heard this: "What's going on? I'm still living here! Why are you driving someone away without saying hello?"
But the other party was even angrier than him: "You have the nerve to say that? If you don't have money to rent a house, you sleep on the street! The August rent has been delayed again and again, and it's already October now. Who rents a house like you?"
Hearing what the landlord said, Ye Xingyu remembered that he had not paid rent for several months because he had not made any achievements and could only get a meager basic salary. He was even found out by that guy Xiao Dazhuang.
A lot of deductions were made for various reasons and excuses, and he had to spend a lot of money to buy gifts to please the goddess Zhang Xinyu. He had long since run out of food and ammunition and was overwhelmed.
"I said...can we tolerate it for another month? I will definitely pay it back in one lump sum next month!"
"Stop talking! Leave quickly! I don't want the rent you owe anymore, just feed it to the dogs!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party immediately hung up the phone, fearing that if he said another word, he would be tempted to stab someone with a knife.
Now it's better. I lost my job, lost my place to live, and offended my original goddess. It's really a low point and a desperate situation in life!
Ye Xingyu smiled bitterly and put away his cell phone, lamenting that this start was so bad, as if he had nothing but his life.
There were a lot of things that the landlord moved out of the rental house, and it was obvious that Ye Xingyu couldn't carry them with both hands. He didn't care. He only packed some clothes and put them into a worn-out suitcase. He didn't ask for anything else. That's it.
He walked out calmly.
With a "meow" sound, the little black wild cat came out of nowhere and followed Ye Xingyu's feet.
Ye Xingyu chuckled and said, "I almost forgot about you!"
After saying that, he bent down and held the little wild cat in his arms. With his other hand, he dragged the suitcase that was missing one wheel and strode forward into the sunset.
The little wild cat curled up motionless on Ye Xingyu's arm, "meowed" twice, and then kept licking its mouth with its tongue, which seemed to mean it was hungry.
Ye Xingyu chuckled: "Okay! Go eat first, and then think of a solution after you're full!"
He took out his mobile phone and checked his account balance. He still had a few hundred yuan, which was enough for several days. He was not particularly anxious, so he walked leisurely along the street, looking around to see if there was anything more interesting.
A cheap little restaurant where you can fill your stomach with something to eat.
Although this place is on the outskirts of the city and far from the city center, this ten-mile road is quite prosperous, with all kinds of shops.
It was already dusk at this time, and it was lunch time. Many small restaurants on the roadside were already full. Judging by their age and dress, they were mostly college students. That was because this area was a college area in the municipal planning.
There are several institutions of higher learning nearby.
Ye Xingyu originally planned to find a cheap small restaurant, but when he passed a high-end Chinese restaurant, he was attracted by the recruitment advertisement at the door, so he hugged the cat and dragged the box to the door.
"Welcome! Please come inside!" The young receptionist bowed with a smile on her face.
"I'm not here to eat." Ye Xingyu also smiled and pointed to the recruitment advertisement posted at the door, "I'm here to apply for a job as a chef."
The welcoming lady immediately stopped smiling, said "Please wait a moment", then turned around and went in to report to the leader.
Ye Xingyu looked around and saw that the hall was a little deserted. There were only a few tables of customers in the several hundred square meters hall. The business seemed to be average. Around a table near the entrance, there were a few people in their fifties and sixties sitting around.
The old gentlemen, all of whom were polite, were chatting while eating. Ye Xingyu sat casually in the empty seat at the table next to them and waited.
After a while, a fat man wearing a chef's white shirt came and sat down opposite Ye Xingyu. He introduced himself: "I am the chef of this restaurant, and I am responsible for the chef's recruitment interview!"
"
Ye Xingyu greeted him politely and said "hello".
The fat man refused to be polite to him and asked straight to the point: "Which cooking school did you graduate from? Which restaurant did you work in?"
Ye Xingyu replied with a slight embarrassment: "My cooking skills are self-taught, and my previous job was not a chef."
The fat chef's face immediately turned ugly: "Are you kidding me? You've never been a chef? Are you self-taught in cooking? Do you still have the courage to apply for this job?"
Ye Xingyu smiled and explained: "I am quite confident in my cooking skills. If you don't believe me, can you let me make a few dishes to try?"
"Sorry! This restaurant has certain standards for recruiting employees. You can't even meet the minimum requirements, so please come back!"
After the fat chef said this, he stopped talking to Ye Xingyu and turned around and left.
Unexpectedly, he was rejected and couldn't even be hired as a small chef. Ye Xingyu couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly, picked up his suitcase and prepared to leave the restaurant.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Little brother, please stay!"
Among the guests at the nearby table stood an old gentleman with a kind expression, smiling and waving to Ye Xingyu.
Although Ye Xingyu was a little confused, he saw that the other party had a kind face and no ill intentions, so he dragged the box over and walked over.
"Come on, come on, sit down!" The old man motioned for Ye Xingyu to sit down next to him, and then introduced himself, "I am the vice president of the nearby Wanxiang College. My name is Chang Bowen. These are all from our college.
Professor!"
Ye Xingyu nodded and said with a smile: "Hello, Dean Chang, may I ask for your advice?"
Chang Bowen did not answer directly, but said: "It seems you haven't had dinner yet? - Come! I'll ask the waiter to bring some bowls and chopsticks, and we'll eat together! Let's chat while eating!"
Ye Xingyu was indeed a little hungry, and he was not afraid that Chang Bowen would set him up, so he sat down carelessly and started to move without any ceremony. At the same time, he used chopsticks to hold some steamed fish and feed it to the kitten.
Chang Bowen poured him a glass of wine, raised his glass and said, "What do you call your little brother?"
Ye Xingyu quickly picked up the wine glass and responded: "My name is Ye Xingyu, the night of the night, the stars of the starry sky, and the universe of the universe."
Chang Bowen smiled and said: "Come on, Xiaoye, let's have a drink first!"
"Dean Chang, I respect you!" Ye Xingyu was not polite. He picked up the wine glass and raised his head. The glass was empty.
Chang Bowen filled another glass for him, and then said: "Xiaoye, I just happened to hear that you were applying for a job as a chef, so I took the liberty to invite you over for a chat!"
When Ye Xingyu heard him talk about business, he put down his chopsticks, sat upright, and listened attentively.
