Yang Lu slapped Ma Huiwen so hard she was stunned. Ma Huiwen staggered backward, pulling the blanket she had just used to the ground.
She accidentally stepped on it again, and a corner of the blanket got dirty.
Before she could even get her revenge, the waiter walked over and said to her with a very unpleasant expression:
"Comrade, you've dirtied the blanket. Please pay for it."
Ma Huiwen was speechless for a long time before she finally managed to explain:
"She hit me, that's why I stepped on it."
The waiter said expressionlessly, "I don't care. All I see is that you stepped on the carpet and got it dirty. It's just ninety yuan. You can't afford it, can you? If you don't have money, why bother browsing in our high-end store?"
Anything here, even slightly damaged, would cost at least eighty yuan.
Ma Huiwen was furious. She could earn several hundred yuan a month, how could she not afford to pay the loss?
After she paid, she wanted to argue with Yang Lu, but found that they had already left.
She had no choice but to swallow her anger.
When she got home, she saw Ma Huijuan leading Kunkun back and yelled at her:
"You kept saying you couldn't show your face, so why did you go pick up Kunkun again? I think you just don't want to go out to work. You're all just waiting for me at home. Do you know how hard it is for me to earn money on my own?"
Ma Huijuan hurriedly explained:
"I went because I was worried about Kun Kun, and I was wearing a mask so no one could see my face. I will try not to go there in the future."
Her humble expression broke Kunkun's heart.
Kun Kun quickly tugged at Ma Huiwen's sleeve, trying to appease her: "Auntie, don't be angry."
As he spoke, he took a brightly colored wooden doll out of his bag and handed it to her.
"Here, you can play with this."
Just as Ma Huiwen was about to take it, Ma Huijuan looked terrified and snatched the doll away.
"Kun Kun, wasn't this doll given to Zhuang Zhuang?" Her voice rose eight octaves.
Last time, after Zhuangzhuang bullied Kunkun, Liu Juan reluctantly apologized and paid Ma Huiwen several tens of yuan.
Ma Huijuan kept it in mind.
Later, when Kunkun was leaving school, he ran into Zhuangzhuang and his mother several more times on the road, and Liu Juan even cursed at him.
When Ma Huijuan found out, she made this doll and painted it with bright paint, then asked Kunkun to give it to Zhuangzhuang.
She told Kunkun that as long as she gave the doll to Zhuangzhuang, he would stop bullying people.
Unexpectedly, they never met again.
"I saw it on the roadside this morning on my way to school, so I picked it up." Kunkun's words interrupted her thoughts.
Ma Huijuan felt a cold sweat run down her back; thankfully, it had only been in her schoolbag for a day.
Paints containing mercury and lead are quite harmful to human health, and long-term exposure can easily lead to illness.
She quickly asked Kun Kun if he felt unwell anywhere.
I breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that Kun Kun was not feeling unwell.
Ma Huiwen noticed her acting strangely, glared at her, and tried to snatch the doll to take a look, but was refused.
"You can't play with this doll anymore."
Her eyes searched everywhere, looking for a place to throw it away, and finally she came to the kitchen and put it on the stove.
It's not safe to keep it anywhere; the only option is to burn it.
Looking at the doll that was burned black, Kun Kun felt sad, but dared not disobey his mother, and could only sob softly.
Ma Huiwen couldn't stand it anymore and yelled at Ma Huijuan:
"What are you doing? It was such a pretty doll, and you burned it."
Kun Kun sobbed, "What if Zhuang Zhuang comes looking for me again?"
He was also afraid of being bullied by Zhuangzhuang again.
Upon hearing this, Ma Huiwen laughed and said:
"I forgot to tell you, Zhuangzhuang is sick, he has leukemia, and his family is in complete chaos right now."
Ma Huijuan was shocked to hear this. So fast?
Zhuangzhuang had only been with us for a few days when he got sick, and with a terminal illness at that.
She was both surprised and delighted.
Later I realized, who told him to bully Kunkun? This is karma!
......
After hitting Ma Huiwen, Yang Lu felt a little uneasy and said to Gao Baoliang, who was walking beside her:
"You don't think I'm being too rude, do you?"
Gao Baoliang put his arm around her shoulder and patted her head.
"How could that be? If she weren't a woman, I would have already taken action."
"Actually, I thought about it before I made a move. I only made a move because I felt I could beat her. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to make a move."
Yang Lu stuck out her tongue.
Gao Baoliang chuckled: "Good to know. But with me by your side, you won't suffer any losses."
After he finished speaking, the two were silent for a while, then he said again:
"I'm sorry, I'm the one who caused this trouble. To make amends, I'll treat you to a big meal."
"I want to eat boiled pork slices. I've been craving it for a long time."
Yang Lu looked up happily.
Looking at her adorable face, Gao Baoliang couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek.
"arrange."
The two arrived at the Hunan cuisine restaurant and ordered several signature dishes from the menu.
After ordering, the two sat close together and looked at the pictures.
Those pictures were printed by Gao Baoliang from European oil paintings in the library. Although they were black and white, they contained all the elements.
"Look here, this pattern is something only European royalty would have."
Yang Lu was quite knowledgeable about European murals and told Gao Baoliang about it.
The two men were talking with their heads touching, completely unaware that someone had arrived at the next table.
When Yang Lu looked up, she realized that Meng Jiao and Li Jiabao were sitting opposite her.
Meng Jiao was facing away from her, and she recognized her. The man whose back was to her was someone she didn't recognize. She nudged Gao Baoliang's arm to show him.
Gao Baoliang looked up and saw Meng Jiao, his lips twitching.
"Honey, should we go to a different restaurant?" he suggested.
He wasn't worried about anything, but he was afraid that Meng Jiao would lose control if she saw them being affectionate.
Yang Lu rubbed his face and laughed:
"Why did you change it? Are you feeling guilty?"
Gao Baoliang pecked her lips. "Why would I feel guilty? I'm just afraid you'll feel uncomfortable. If you say yes, I have no objection. Just pretend no one's there."
"Who is the person opposite Meng Jiao?" Yang Lu asked again.
"I heard her husband, Li Jiabao, works in the Organization Department. What else would you like to know?" Gao Baoliang asked with a smile.
At this point, the dishes were served, and the two began to eat.
They ate and chatted about work.
Gao Baoliang told her that his plan was to go for high-end decoration.
As the economy develops, the home renovation industry will gradually emerge. However, this industry has few barriers to entry, and anyone can become a contractor. But for high-end renovations, a large amount of upfront capital is required, so competition is not as fierce.
The only downside is that it requires a lot of capital, and high-end materials are hard to find; you have to search for them on the market.
"I'll probably have to travel a lot for work in the future, and many high-end materials are only available in Shanghai. However, I can do some building materials business on the side."
Gao Baoliang has a clear plan for his career.
Yang Lu looked at him with a smile and put a piece into his mouth:
"Take me with you next time you go on a business trip, I've never been to Shanghai before!"
