As before, she ordered a small table full of side dishes and beer.
But the beer was there, and she didn't drink it.
City B is one of the most prosperous cities in China.
Many people would do anything to get here, but she only stayed for a day and inexplicably disliked the place.
There's nothing wrong with it; it's just that housing prices are high here, and people face a lot of financial pressure.
The waiter who just came over to serve the food said he works three jobs a day.
Look at him, he looks exhausted.
Rong Shang asked him, "Are you tired?"
He said he was tired.
Rong Shang asked again, "If you feel tired, why not choose to let go?"
Wouldn't it be better to go back to your own city and live a simple life?
He shook his head.
He said that this place holds his dreams.
It's okay to be a little tired.
Rong Shang did not say anything when she heard this.
This wasn't the first time she'd heard something like that.
She herself once said something similar.
That wasn't the original intention.
...
An hour later, Rong Shang finished her meal and paid the bill.
I had just left the roadside shop when I heard someone shout, "Thief!"
At that moment, she only heard a woman's voice, and without thinking, Rong Shang chased after her.
On a bustling street, Rong Shang saw the woman shouting "Stop thief!"
She was wearing sunglasses and a mask.
Rong Shang couldn't see her face, only that she was pointing at the thief running away in the crowd.
She caught up with him and saw that he was holding a pink bag.
Pedestrians were all dodging, but she rushed up and kicked the other person to the ground.
A sound of "Ah!" came from behind.
The thief was immediately tackled to the ground.
"Give it to me."
Stepping forward, Rong Shang bent down to snatch the handbag from his hand.
The man looked up and saw that the person who kicked him was a woman.
He was furious, and with a flip, he wanted to retaliate.
"We've got him! We've got him!"
A cheerful female voice came from behind, as a group of people approached from behind.
Rong Shang didn't see who the other person was; she simply took advantage of the thief's attempt to retaliate and kicked him.
The man was thrown two or three meters away, and his bag fell to the ground.
Rong Shang glanced at it, walked over, bent down, and picked it up.
The sound of thanks came from behind.
She turned around and looked over. When she saw one of the people in the group in front of her, Rong Shang paused in handing over her bag.
Gu Xingchen.
"Thank you." Cheng Xin took the bag from her hands and took off her sunglasses.
That's how Rong Shang finally saw who this woman was.
That's Cheng Xin, the woman who had a rumored affair with Gu Xingchen.
She pursed her lips, her expression unchanged. "It's nothing, just a small favor."
She lowered her eyes, and after a second or two, she turned away expressionlessly.
Take a step and leave.
One person in the crowd almost followed.
However, when Su Yunmeng grabbed his sleeve, Gu Xingchen was momentarily slow to react.
"That person is amazing."
“Yes.” Cheng Xin watched Rong Shang’s departing figure and for a moment felt that she looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.
"She's really amazing."
It was the kind of image she had always admired.
Cool and capable.
After praising Rong Shang's departing figure, Cheng Xin turned around and subconsciously glanced at Gu Xingchen.
But to my shock, I found that he was actually spacing out.
"Stars".
"Um?"
"What's wrong?" she asked him.
The man shook his head. "It's nothing."
"Shall we go back then?"
With so many people around, it wouldn't be good if they were recognized later.
...
"good."
These were the words Rong Shang heard from the man as she disappeared at the street corner.
She instinctively straightened her back, turned her head, and continued walking forward without looking back.
