Chapter 80 Couple Cup
Threats came one after another. Ma Li certainly didn't want the police to come. If the police came, she might lose her job.
Ma Li gritted her teeth and swallowed it. "Can it be a little less? One hundred is too much. I don't have that much money."
One hundred yuan, which was her salary for more than three months. She could only save about one hundred yuan in a year. Giving her one hundred yuan was almost like asking for her life.
"I'm not in a hurry. I can wait for you here. You can just go home and get it. It can't be less than a cent. If you want to talk again, I will remember the ten thousand you mentioned. If you can't agree, I will add another zero."
Add another zero and it would be one thousand. By then she wouldn't be worth that much even if you sold her!
Ma Li's face changed and she dared not say anything. She said, "I'll get the money," and ran away.
Gu Qingshi looked at her back and shouted, "If you don't bring it tonight, I'll go to the department store tomorrow."
Mary stumbled and ran faster.
When the onlookers saw this scene, their eyes changed when they looked at Gu Qingshi. They originally thought that the two girls would suffer a loss, but now it seems that they are very powerful. They will have to be careful in the future and not compete with them for territory. They all remember the blood on Ma Li's head.
Those who bought whitening cream before and were tempted by the price of ten thousand yuan have now shut up. It is better not to go the route of extortion, otherwise you will definitely lose both the wife and the army.
After watching such a big show, everyone discussed in low voices and didn't leave, just to see if Ma Li would bring the money.
Among the onlookers, there was a girl who also had acne on her face. She mustered up the courage to come forward and ask Lu Xiaozhu if using whitening cream would really make her feel better.
Lu Xiaozhu nodded vigorously. "Yes, I don't feel that much pain anymore. It feels much cooler and more comfortable. You can buy it if you want."
Then the little girl actually bought a bottle. Bai Xue was confused and took the money and gave the goods. She looked at the smashed stall and muttered, "It's still selling in this state."
Lu Xiaozhu was really sorry for affecting Gu Qingshi's business. Seeing that the girl was very happy after buying it, she whispered to Gu Qingshi, "I will recommend it to people around me in the future."
"Then I'd like to thank you in advance."
"You're welcome." Lv Xiaozhu may have been holding it in for too long, so she took the initiative to mention Ma Li, "She will definitely bring the money. She is most concerned about her work."
Lu Xiaozhu has been timid and has sensitive skin since she was a child. She often gets acne on her face. When her classmates saw this, they said they were afraid of being infected. Later, she was basically isolated by her classmates and felt very inferior. When Ma Li saw this, she taught her classmate a lesson. When her parents saw this, they said that Lu Xiaozhu had no brothers or sisters, so they brought Ma Li to live with her so that she could have a companion and protect her.
At the beginning, Ma Li did protect her, but later on, things changed unconsciously. Ma Li kept doing things she didn't want to do in the name of protecting her, just like this time.
Ma Li can talk and knows how to please her parents. She is not good at expressing herself and does not communicate with her parents as much as Ma Li does. It is obvious that Ma Li was the one who bullied her the most a long time ago, but because she can pretend, her parents are very grateful to Ma Li and even help her find a job as a salesperson.
Lu Xiaozhu was very angry at her own cowardice. "I don't want to go on like this, sister. I want to tell my parents what she did and kick her out, but I'm afraid. Sister, do you think my parents will like her more and not listen to me?"
Gu Qingshi shook his head, "No, don't worry, you are the most precious to them."
Lu Xiaozhu smiled, "Thank you, sister, thank you for giving me the courage to fight back and speak for myself. I will go back and tell my parents that Ma Li lives in my house and eats at my house, and bullies me every day."
Ma Li didn't know that a disaster was about to happen. Lu Xiaozhu, whom she had long since let go of, was about to rebel. With a look of humiliation on her face, she took out her savings that she had worked so hard to save, and gave them to Gu Qingshi in front of everyone's gaze.
Then she glared at Lu Xiaozhu fiercely and said, "Go home, cousin." She gritted her teeth and waited to teach Lu Xiaozhu a lesson.
"Gu Qingshi, we'll see you later." Ma Li said this with the intention of threatening to take revenge later, but right after she finished speaking, she saw Gu Qingshi looking at her with a half-smile, while Bai Xue beside her looked at her with a look of gloating but also a bit of sympathy.
Ma Li was puzzled and didn't understand why they had such expressions. Until midnight, she was kicked out of the house by her uncle and aunt in a disheveled state.
Before she could deal with Lu Xiaozhu, Lu Xiaozhu went to her parents and told them that Ma Li had been bullying her. Lu's father and mother had not expected such a thing to happen. They were very angry and could not wait even a second before kicking Ma Li, the audacious ungrateful person, out of the house.
In the middle of the night, Ma Li was kicked out wearing only a small vest.
Ma Li felt cold and ashamed. She didn't dare to imagine what would happen if she was seen. She begged outside for a long time, but her uncle and aunt didn't open the door. Later, she picked up some cotton wool from the trash can and barely covered herself.
At this point Ma Li finally realized that she had stirred up a hornet's nest. Not only did she fail to frame Gu Qingshi, but she also completely angered her cousin who had always bullied and oppressed her, and completely cut off her own retreat.
When Ma Li was full of despair, Gu Qingshi opened his eyes in the space on time and started a busy day.
Since the addition of new business, Gu Qingshi has spent much less time in the store. Most of the restaurant's affairs have been handed over to Bai Zhong and Bai Yang, so he has no time to take care of delivering meals.
Qin Zeming stopped eating completely. Lu Yuan was easy to talk to. Since Gu Qingshi didn't have time to send him off, he would come over to eat when there were fewer people around, and also to see if she had any trouble again.
The last time Boss Chen and his men caused trouble, Gu Qingshi solved it himself. Lu Yuan said that he could actually ask him for help.
Gu Qingshi knew Lu Yuan's abilities and was grateful for what he said, but he felt that since they were friends, he couldn't bother him all the time. He should solve problems that he could solve by himself, and in the end he still had to rely on himself.
On this day, Lu Yuan came again. I don’t know what happened to him. His face looked a little tense and his steps were hurried.
Gu Qingshi thought something had happened, so he immediately stood up and asked nervously, "Lu Yuan, what happened?"
Lu Yuan saw her slow down and coughed, "No."
"and you."
"I'm a little thirsty." Lu Yuan said.
"Oh, are you thirsty? I'll pour you some water." Because Lu Yuan was a germaphobe, Gu Qingshi had prepared a set of special bowls and chopsticks for Lu Yuan. When he wanted to drink water, he found the enamel pot specially for Lu Yuan and poured him a glass of water.
"Where have you been? Why are you so thirsty?"
Lu Yuan picked up the enamel pot and saw the two words "Lu Yuan" written by Gu Qingshi with a brush. Then he looked at the two words "Qing Shi" on the identical enamel pot on the table. He was silent for a moment, drank some water, and then shook his head, "I didn't go anywhere."
After drinking the water, he put down the enamel pot and looked at Gu Qingshi from a distance, as if they were relying on each other.
Lu Yuanduo glanced at him twice, tapped the table twice with his fingers, and then asked casually, "I heard that Qin Zeming often comes to see you these days? Do you want to renew your engagement with him?"
