The proprietress smiled and saw her off.
Gu Siqing walked towards the shop opposite. As soon as she entered the door, she was greeted, "Big sister, come and buy something. We have some good stuff, all of which just arrived in the past two days. Come and take a look!"
Gu Siqing turned around and saw that the person speaking should be the owner.
She walked around inside and didn't find what she wanted, so she was waiting for her cousin who had gone in to put something away to come out.
After waiting for a while, Gu Siqing picked out a small children's toy and walked towards the owner.
As soon as I walked to the owner, Gu Wanrou came out of the compartment.
"Xiao Gu, please go over there and sort out the goods!" The owner was ready to pay for Gu Siqing.
After hearing the voice, Gu Siqing turned around and saw Gu Wanrou's familiar face.
She was stunned for a moment, but still curled her lips and called softly, "Cousin, why are you here?"
Cousin?
The owner was stunned when he heard the name, and after hearing the familiar voice, Gu Wanrou looked up suddenly and saw Gu Siqing's familiar face.
She was stunned for a moment, then a look of panic appeared on her face.
Arranging things on the cabinet next to him, he shook his head randomly, "Miss, you have the wrong person. I am not the cousin you are talking about."
Seeing Gu Wanrou's repeated denials, Gu Siqing curled the corners of his lips coldly.
"Yeah?"
Listening to her voice and looking at the expression on her face, the shop owner felt that things were not that simple, so he stepped forward and asked, "Big sister, what's going on?"
Gu Siqing smiled slightly and was about to speak when she saw Shen Qingyan walking towards them with Dabao and Erbao.
"Mother."
The two children ran over and held Gu Siqing's hands, and Shen Qingyan also saw Gu Wanrou.
But after just a glance, his eyes fell on Gu Siqing, "What's going on?"
Gu Siqing shook her head and replied to the shop owner, "Maybe I saw the wrong person. My cousin is still in jail. It's impossible for her to be here."
When they heard about going to jail, everyone around started talking about it.
"What's going on?"
"Did they really recognize the wrong person? I don't believe it. The clerk's expression was obviously panicked."
"I think so."
"This is a bit too exaggerated!"
"If the owner really hired a clerk who had been in prison, then we can't come to this store anymore."
…
Almost everyone who passed by and watched said so. Gu Wanrou's face instantly turned ugly, and the more everyone looked at her, the more they felt something was wrong.
The owner looked like he had eaten a fly.
"Big sister, what's going on? Explain it clearly!" If he doesn't explain it clearly, with so many people watching, the story will spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Then, should he continue to run this store?
Gu Siqing: "It's nothing, actually. I just have a cousin who looks exactly like you, the shop assistant."
"As for my cousin, she was jailed five years ago for impersonating me to go to college. She was imprisoned two years ago. According to the timeline, she should have been released this summer."
Gu Siqing remained calm and stated the most indisputable facts in the gentlest words.
Gu Wanrou's face darkened visibly, and panic was written all over her face. Even her hands hidden under the container were shaking.
"I might have made a mistake just now, but they look so much alike. Even their voices are exactly the same. Besides, my cousin's last name is also Gu."
Gu Siqing was still smiling, but the owner's face had turned ugly.
Others are not fools either.
Although Gu Siqing said that he might have recognized the wrong person and they just looked alike, how could there be such a person?
Maybe it's just one person.
"Since I've recognized the wrong person, I'd better leave." Gu Siqing shook his head and put down the toys he had just picked. Shen Qingyan also came over and took his hand. The two of them left happily holding the children's hands.
After everyone left, the shop owner looked at the people at the door and could only shout, "No business, no buying things?"
Everyone then shook their heads and left, but it was obvious that they had already made up their minds about the matter.
After these people left, the owner looked at Gu Wanrou and asked, "What's going on?"
The shop owner frowned tightly, and the expression on his face showed his dissatisfaction.
"The man just now must have recognized the wrong person. I have never been to jail!" Gu Wanrou tightly grasped an item in her hand, her heart pounding. If the owner asked again, she felt that she might not be able to answer.
While she was panicking, she scolded Gu Siqing all over again.
It would be fine if he had hurt her so badly, but now that she comes here to work, why do you still treat her like this?
And Gu Siqing's belly, wasn't it damaged when she gave birth to Dabao and Erbao? Why is she pregnant again now?
And he continued to be with Shen Qingyan. The two of them seemed to be living a happy life, and Shen Qingyan was no longer in a wheelchair.
Why?
Why is everything different from what I imagined?!
Gu Wanrou even began to dream. If she had not let Gu Siqing marry Shen Qingyan, but married him herself, would the situation be completely different?
At the beginning, she disliked Shen Qingyan because he was a cripple. Otherwise, with Shen Qingyan's family background, she would be very happy to marry Shen Qingyan and become the daughter-in-law of the Shen family. After all, the Shen family is completely incomparable to the Gu family.
"Then why doesn't it match what you said?" If Gu Siqing hadn't reminded him, the owner wouldn't have thought there was anything wrong.
But now that I think about it, something is clearly wrong.
Because generally summer workers start right after the holidays, but Gu Wanrou in front of him only came in early August. Although he did produce his enrollment certificate at that time, it was five years ago.
"I told you, boss, that I took three years off from school because of a family incident. Now I'm starting over again, and I haven't graduated yet."
"Then you should have come right after your holiday. Why did you wait until August?" The manager kept asking, "You can't say it's because of something at home again, right?"
Gu Wanrou hesitated for a while, wanting to explain, but didn't know how to start.
The store manager knew from the look on her face that he was definitely right.
No matter what, I can't keep this kind of person anymore, so I thought, "You've worked for me for a certain number of days, I'll pay you and let you go, and don't come back in the future."
Just one sentence made Gu Wanrou's heart sink to the bottom.
"Boss, it's really not what that person said just now. I just came here to study far away. Please don't let me go!" Gu Wanrou was stunned for a few seconds, and then immediately looked at the owner with a pleading look.
The owner shook his head.
Regardless of whether what Gu Siqing, who came to buy things just now, said was true, he could not keep such a person in his store.
