At this point, Xia Zhiyu took a deep breath and said slowly: "Yes, Brother Yang, I started working after graduating from high school. I started as a waiter in a hot pot restaurant."
"But not long after, the shop owner fired me because I was too quiet and couldn't chat with customers."
Su Yang was stunned and asked, "Being quiet is also a reason to fire someone? What a crappy hot pot restaurant."
Xia Zhiyu helplessly lowered her head and sighed again: "After leaving the hot pot restaurant, I went to some restaurants, milk tea shops and other places and worked for a while. Because I didn't have a high level of education, many places didn't want me."
"It wasn't until last week that I received a call from this store on Boss Direct Hiring. I came in for an interview, and the interviewer told me that all I had to do was drink and chat with customers for a month and they would pay me 10,000 yuan..."
"I was actually hesitant at first. Although I'm not a talkative person, I'm not stupid. I know that a job like serving drinks to customers is definitely a bit tricky, but I really needed a job at the time. I couldn't find anywhere else for the next two days, so I came here."
Su Yang listened silently and took a sip of the wine: "Xiao Yu, are you from Haicheng?"
Xia Zhiyu nodded: "Yes."
"What about your parents?"
"I...I..." Xia Zhiyu shuddered when she heard this. Then she turned around with a choked voice and looked at Su Yang with her big, watery eyes: "I don't have parents..."
'wipe. '
"Um, sorry, I didn't mean it..." Su Yang said as he took out a tissue from the table and handed it to Xia Zhiyu.
Xia Zhiyu took the paper and wiped the tears from her eyes: "It's okay, Brother Yang, I've been without parents since I was a child. There's nothing to be ashamed of. I've gotten used to it..."
"I'm kidding, this is much worse than mine. I was just poor before, but at least my parents were there. This Xiaoyu is in such a bad situation... No wonder she didn't want to tell me her name when I asked her just now."
"Then how did you..."
"My grandmother brought me up since I was a child. When I was four or five years old, my parents left me with her without saying a word and walked away. I haven't seen them since then."
"Damn, I thought he was dead. So this is what he meant. But it's also a sin." Su Yang thought about it calmly.
Before he could speak, Xia Zhiyu continued with a serious expression, "At that time, I thought they would definitely come back. I waited and waited for many years, but until today, I haven't seen them again."
"So in my heart they are already dead. Even if they suddenly appear in front of me one day, I won't recognize them anymore!"
Hearing this, Su Yang reached out and gently patted Xia Zhiyu's shoulder: "If it were me, I would make the same choice as you, abandoning you at such a young age. Does your grandma know why they left?"
Xia Zhiyu shook her head. "When I was older, I asked my grandmother, but she didn't know the reason either. Anyway, no matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter to me anymore."
"Yeah, it doesn't matter. So, Xiaoyu, how old is your grandmother this year?"
Hearing this, Xia Zhiyu swallowed her saliva and looked up at Su Yang: "If she were still alive, she would be 82 this year..."
“Huh~”
'Oh my god, my mouth...'
Su Yang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and was speechless for a moment.
Xia Zhiyu's life experience would definitely make her the protagonist in a novel.
He scratched his cheek, opened his eyes and looked at Xia Zhiyu: "I'm sorry, Xiaoyu, I..."
"It's okay, Brother Yang."
"Xiaoyu, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Okay, no more talking. Brother Yang, let me pour you some wine~" Xia Zhiyu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up and filled Su Yang's glass.
