Chapter 2 The lazy bar owner
"uncle!"
Xiao Bao put his hands on his waist and said righteously, "You can't smoke in front of children. Be careful or I'll tell grandpa and grandma!"
Pu Ye sighed regretfully, feeling sorry for the brand-name cigarette he had just taken a few puffs of. "You little bastard, are you a snotty person? You're so obsessed with me that you can't get rid of me?"
He put out the cigarette with his fingers and glanced at the woman, "Who are you?"
The woman was pretty, but her eyes looked a bit dull. She had her bag strap tugged tightly, her expression serious and stern, and she stood there straight, like a door god...
Su Yunci couldn't smell the smell of cigarettes, but because she was in front of the students' parents, she just frowned slightly, slowed down her breathing slightly, and swallowed the discomfort in her body.
Xiaobao quickly answered, "It was Teacher Su, my piano teacher. You didn't go to pick me up, so Teacher Su specially sent me back!"
The way he introduced someone with his chin raised was even more proud and arrogant than if he had won first place in the exam.
Pu Ye slowly said thank you, "Oh... thank you for troubling Teacher Su."
"You're welcome"
Su Yunci maintained a polite smile, hinting at his incompetence as a parent, "Next time, please remember to pick up Xiaobao. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous for him to be outside."
I politely reminded him, but in my heart I couldn't help but complain: How could this man be so idle and dissolute? He is not a good man at first glance, and his good looks are wasted.
Pu Ye laughed angrily. Did he get taught a lesson?
"Okay, thank you Teacher Su for reminding me~"
Su Yunci nodded in response seriously, waved to Xiaobao and turned to leave, leaving Xiaobao standing there with tears in his eyes and a reluctant look on his face.
Xiao Yang held it in for a long time, but when he saw the person walk out the door and disappear, he immediately twisted his body as if he had contracted an itch. "Oh my god, she's so beautiful! She's several times more beautiful than the owner of the nail salon next door!"
"Xiaobao, Xiaobao! She's your music teacher, right? What's her name? How old is she? She doesn't have a boyfriend, right?"
Pu Ye glanced at him with disdain, "What a loser! Have you never seen a woman?"
"No way, boss, even this can't seduce you? Aren't your standards too high?"
Xiaobao echoed loudly, "Teacher Su is the most beautiful! She is the most beautiful person Xiaobao has ever seen!"
Xiao Yang held his chin with his hand, his face rosy. "I was fascinated by her at first sight. If we are destined to be together..."
Seeing their good friend thinking about love, several of the guys laughed and poured cold water on him, saying, "Stop daydreaming. If the boss and that girl could be a couple, forget it if it's you. You're not good-looking enough."
"Yes, yes!" Xiaobao struggled to pull Pu Ye's thighs, "Teacher Su doesn't have a boyfriend, uncle, go chase her, I want her to be my aunt~"
Pu Ye pushed the little guy off his lap calmly and said, "Come on, I, your uncle, don't have that kind of luck."
The good girl's personality is not suitable for him.
But where he couldn't see, Xiaobao lowered his eyelashes to hide the cunning in his eyes, with a sly smile on his lips, secretly planning to snatch his aunt away.
———
Su Yunci sat in the taxi, rubbing his nose tiredly, his head leaning against the window glass and looking at the busy street.
The man's smirking face suddenly appeared in my mind.
"That's crazy..."
Su Yunci blinked in disbelief, not understanding why she thought of him.
Perhaps it was because she had been living a life that was in line with the routine designed by her mother for the past 24 years, and suddenly a person who was completely different from her came along, making her feel unfamiliar and curious.
Or perhaps it was because that angular face held a wildness that was difficult to tame, and this feeling was a freedom she had not experienced in many years.
What made her unforgettable was his eyes. His slightly narrow and long single eyelids gave people a cold feeling. But when he smiled, he looked naughty and mischievous, giving people the impression that he was not doing his job properly.
"Never mind."
Su Yunci cleared the confusion in his mind. After all, they were just passers-by, and there would probably be no chance for them to meet again.
The issue that is giving her the most headache right now is probably renting a house.
This art institution is her first job in China, and she is currently quite satisfied with it. In the absence of long-term goals, she has no intention of changing jobs for the time being.
There is just one thing: the agency does not provide accommodation, so Su Xu has to worry about renting a house.
She can't go home because she is in a cold war with her mother.
Ever since she ignored her mother's opposition and resolutely quit her high-paying job abroad and returned to China to develop, the mother and son had a big fight and were both holding their breath, and neither of them was willing to give in first.
Although Su Yunci has a soft personality, he is stubborn at heart and no one can change what he has decided.
Mother Su thought she could control everything about her daughter. She had arranged everything for her daughter since she was a child. Suddenly, it was out of her control. No wonder Mother Su couldn't accept it.
Mr. Su was caught in the middle and had to act as a invisible person at home.
Su Yunci sighed with a headache. The house she was renting now was very cheap, but it was located in a remote area, an hour away from the school.
Although I have passed the driving test, I don’t have enough money to buy a car. I wonder how long it will take me to save enough money with a monthly salary of several thousand yuan.
Su Yunci's head was covered with dark clouds, and his little face was gray and pitiful.
While I was distracted, the phone in my bag dinged.
Caller: Dad
"Hello, Dad"
Pinching the fabric of the clothes, Su Yunci opened his mouth and said something incoherent. Every time he answered a call from his parents, he felt like he was in torture.
"Yunci, are you off work?"
“Yeah, on the way home.”
"Oh, so that's it," Su's father was also very confused, mumbling incoherently and constantly selecting his words.
"It's okay, Dad. Just tell me what you mean."
Su Yunci took a deep breath, her intuition told her that it must be her mother who asked her to make the call.
"Well, Dad thought that since you have decided to return to China to work, it would be a good idea if you could find a partner and get married while you are still young. Then your mother and I would have nothing to worry about."
"Your mother and I have arranged a blind date for you. The boy comes from a wealthy family and is handsome. It's the weekend tomorrow, so you can go meet him."
"......" Su Yunci's eyes turned red without warning for some reason. He couldn't explain the feeling, but he felt like a commodity, and the day had come for it to be sold at a fixed price.
"I don't want to go"
Before she could finish her refusal, Su's mother's voice rang out from the other end of the line, "Some people are simply ungrateful and impossible to tame. You raised them with so much hardship, and now they're gone, and you don't get any good results!"
He didn't mention anyone by name, but Su Yunci shed the tears he had been holding back.
"Ah, you!"
Father Su was busy covering his phone, "What nonsense are you talking about? You promised to talk to your daughter properly."
"Is she worthy of my talking to her? Why did she return to China to be a piano teacher without consulting me? I trained her for so many years just to let her teach little brats."
"Okay, I'll go see you."
Su Yunci sniffed, interrupting the quarrel that was about to start at home, and agreed with a nasal tone.
"Okay," Su's father breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll send you the boy's contact information. Yunci, you can have a good chat with him."
"Um"
