Chapter 13 People's Joys and Sorrows Are Not the Same
You could hear a pin drop in the quiet box, with only the faint smell of cocktail in the air.
"Boss...Hello, boss~"
Shen Youwei was like an elementary school student who made a mistake and was called to the teacher's office to stand in the corner as punishment. She was nervous and scared.
"Um."
Cao Jinyan nodded and ignored her, continuing to drink his wine.
In his previous life, Cao Jinyan's alcohol tolerance was not good, but after coming to this world, he bought a skill [Drunkard] in the system mall, which greatly improved his alcohol tolerance.
When it comes to drinking, he can confidently say: I'm not targeting anyone, everyone here is garbage.
Seeing that Cao Jinyan ignored her, the girl stopped talking and just stood there obediently.
While standing, she secretly glanced at Cao Jinyan, then lowered her head nervously for fear of being discovered. After a while, when she found that she was not discovered, she secretly glanced at him again.
You are an elementary school student... Cao Jinyan was too weak to complain, so he took a sip of wine and said, "Is there something on my face?"
"Ah? No...no."
Seeing the girl buttoning her clothes nervously, Cao Jinyan stood up slightly, put down his wine glass, and asked calmly: "Can you sing?"
"Singing? Not really... Does tone-deaf count?"
I just don’t know how to do it… Cao Jinyan asked again: “Will there be a dance party?”
"Dancing, I'm not that good at it either, but does radio gymnastics count?"
If you can’t even pass the third subject, you can’t even get a job as a waiter at Haidilao… Cao Jinyan complained silently and looked up at the naive heroine.
Her makeup is extremely simple, and even the bangs that high school students wear can't hide her beauty. Although there is panic in her eyes, it is more of a clear stupidity and innocent simplicity that can't be concealed.
As for why a good girl as pure as white cloth would come to the Night Bar to stand at the front desk, the reason is actually very simple. Her grandmother, who depended on her for everything, was sick.
And it's cancer, in the late stage.
Surgery requires high costs.
As for why it was advanced cancer and not other common diseases, if it wasn't for a disease that couldn't be cured by modern medicine, would it be the turn of the miracle doctor Chen Yu to show off and get a girl?
In reality, the possibility of recovery from cancer, let alone in the late stage, is very low even in the middle stage.
The cancer in the brainless urban novels, let alone in the late stage, even if it is in the advanced stage, can be cured in minutes with just a slight effort from the protagonist.
In the original plot, Chen Yu came to the Night Bar to drink and met Shen Youwei who was being teased by gangsters. He was shocked by her beauty and immediately fought with several blind gangsters. In the process, he also broke a lot of equipment and decorations in the bar. Later, the bar asked Chen Yu for an explanation and compensation, but Chen Yu not only refused to compensate but also beat up the bar security.
After leaving Ye Se, the grateful Shen Youwei told Chen Yu the reason why she came to work in Ye Se. Chen Yu immediately said that he could cure her grandmother's disease. The subsequent plot came naturally, and the silly and sweet girl was completely captured.
"You can't sing or dance, so you can only drink!"
"Drink...drink? I don't...I can only drink a little." The girl wanted to say that she couldn't drink, but in response to the boss's unhappy look and hearing the dissatisfaction in his tone, she swallowed the words and changed it to only drink a little.
As a young, handsome and wealthy boss, he definitely didn't want to force me to drink. He made me drink because I had no talent and no artistic ability.
Uh...if I had blurted out the three words "I can't drink" just now, would I have completely displeased my boss and lost this job that pays 500 yuan a night and is not tiring.
Shen Youwei felt that she was very smart and also very knowledgeable about the workplace.
"Then drink this one." Cao Jinyan pointed to the dry martini specially made by the bartender on the table. Unlike the normal dry martini, this one is more intoxicating.
Being gentle and considerate to women is something the protagonist should worry about, and the villain should act like a villain.
Shen Youwei's eyes widened: "Ah... a whole cup?"
Although she had only been working in Nightlife for a week, she was familiar with quite a few cocktails. She happened to recognize the Dry Martini in the glass, which was a stronger cocktail.
After this drink, I will definitely get drunk.
She didn't want to get drunk, and she couldn't get drunk.
"Boss, I have to go to the hospital to take care of my grandma after get off work. If I get drunk, there will be no one to take care of her." Shen Youwei looked embarrassed, hoping to win the sympathy of the big boss by showing her weakness.
Cao Jinyan sighed: "Then take a sip!"
If you seek the upper part, you will get it; if you seek the lower part of it, you will not find it if you seek the lower part.
Take a sip and it goes from a cup to a sip.
Although she was still somewhat resistant, Shen Youwei was naive but not a fool. If she still refused, the big boss would really be angry.
She bit her lip, took two steps forward, picked up the dry martini on the table and put it to her lips. Coincidentally, she met Cao Jinyan's cold eyes, and her heart panicked. The light sip turned into a large mouthful.
It has a smooth entrance and a refreshing feeling when you drink it. After swallowing it, you can vaguely taste the sour and sweet lemon flavor.
She had never drunk alcohol before and even wanted to have another sip.
But what she didn't know was that her cheeks had turned red all the way to her ears.
The dry martini specially prepared by the bartender is not particularly spicy when you drink it, but it is very intoxicating.
Cao Jinyan nodded with satisfaction: "Your name is Youwei, right? Where is your hometown?"
"My hometown is Tianfu."
At this time, Shen Youwei felt dizzy and her eyes were a little dry. Cao Jinyan began to get close to this naive heroine and build a relationship with her.
Under the routine of rhetoric and the help of alcohol, Shen Youwei soon opened up and the secrets in her heart came out bit by bit.
"Is it terminal cancer?"
Cao Jinyan looked like he felt the same way: "That's really troublesome."
“Woo woo woo~”
Shen Youwei lay on the sofa and cried loudly: "Grandma is my only relative. I will save her even if there is only a little hope."
"Advanced liver cancer, to put it bluntly, is basically a death sentence. All your efforts now may end up in vain, and you will end up with nothing." Cao Jinyan said mercilessly, specifically stabbing Shen Youwei's most vulnerable part: "The efforts you are making now and the treatment you provide to your grandma will only prolong your grandma's suffering."
"I... I know, but... but I have no other choice." Shen Youwei cried loudly, and her collapse level was bursting out.
It's not that she didn't know what advanced liver cancer meant, but in the medical field she had never heard of any patient with advanced liver cancer being successfully treated.
But she still held on to that glimmer of fantasy: there were examples of other cancers being cured, so why couldn't her grandmother be the one who cured advanced liver cancer!
People's joys and sorrows are not the same. Shen Youwei's sadness exploded, but Cao Jinyan is now feeling very happy.
It seems that the mentality of this naive heroine has been almost messed up. If it continues like this, it will be ruined.
Sitting next to Shen Youwei, he leaned over and patted her on the back: “In fact, advanced liver cancer is not incurable. In fact, I have a friend.”
Shen Youwei, who was crying, suddenly looked up, tears welling in her eyes, and looked at Cao Jinyan.
At this moment, she seemed to be looking at the light.
