Chapter 146 Coward
Chapter 146 Coward
Hearing the footsteps, the man looked over.
A beautiful girl walked in.
She was wearing a long grey sweater, a white hoodie and jeans.
She was wearing a pair of sneakers and her hair was tied into a short ponytail. She looked young, energetic, beautiful and pretty.
She is countless times more beautiful than the yellow-faced woman Xu Wanxia in the store.
The man was overjoyed and immediately stood up, holding out his hand to Yun Ning and said, "You must be the college student working part-time in our store!"
Yun Ning was wearing a mask and a hat that night, and it was dark, so the man didn't recognize her at all.
I just felt like I met another beautiful woman.
Looking at the man's black hand stretched out in front of her, Yun Ning did not shake it.
She took a step back and looked at Xu Wanxia strangely.
Who is this man?
He just said "our store".
Could it be that this man also owns this store?
"Yun Ning is here!"
Xu Wanxia hurried forward and took Yun Ning's hand and walked towards the kitchen.
As she walked away, she turned to the man and said, "The students will be here soon. Yun Ning and I will be busy in the kitchen for a while. You stay in the front and call out if there are any orders."
The man looked at Yun Ning who walked into the kitchen, feeling unwilling.
But when he heard Xu Wanxia talking about making money, he pursed his lips and walked to the cashier counter.
Yun Ning lowered the curtain between the cash register and the kitchen, and then she heard Xu Wanxia explain: "This man is my husband, Wu Zhong. He was in jail for fighting before, and he was just released a few days ago and came to help in the store."
"..."
Yun Ning frowned subconsciously.
She doesn't discriminate against people who have been released from prison.
A small number of people go to jail because they were deceived or cheated, or because they had no choice.
As long as they reform themselves after being released from prison, they will be accepted.
But last night, Yun Ning had already witnessed the vulgarity and shamelessness of this man.
Today, I heard him cursing at Xu Wanxia again and wanting to change the video materials regardless of the safety of the students.
This makes people look at him through tinted glasses.
Xu Wanxia also knew what Yun Ning was afraid of, and quickly comforted her, "Wu Zhong has changed a lot in prison. He also told me that he would work hard and run this small shop with me so that we can live a good life."
Seeing Xu Wanxia’s face full of longing, Yun Ning opened her lips, not knowing how to tell her what happened last night.
Anyway, she didn't believe what Wu Zhong said, and she didn't want Xu Wanxia to be kept in the dark.
At this time, Wu Zhong's voice came over: "Take away a portion of braised pork rice!"
Someone came in to order food.
Yun Ning had no choice but to shut up for the time being.
And so, I kept busy until the last student left.
Yun Ning cleaned the kitchen counter and cleaned up the kitchen waste.
When I walked out with the garbage bag, I saw that Xu Wanxia was the only one busy in the store.
She walked over and asked, "Sister Xu, where is Angkor Wu?"
Xu Wanxia put the oily rag in clean water to wash it, and when it became clean, she took it out and continued to wipe the table.
Then he said, "He said he had been standing in the store all night and wanted to go out for some fresh air."
Yun Ning still felt that it was inappropriate when she thought about Wu Zhong driving around in front of the university.
Sister Xu is so busy and dedicated.
If I knew the truth later, I would be even more sad.
It is better to know it earlier and make plans early.
Yun Ning took the rag from Xu Wanxia's hand and said, "Sister Xu is done with her work anyway, so let's go out for some fresh air. I can take you around the school."
Xu Wanxia thought about it and nodded readily: "Okay, I do business in the university every day, but I haven't taken a good look at your university!"
"Ah."
Yun Ning smiled and walked out of the store with Xu Wanxia.
After walking for a distance, I arrived at the school gate.
On an early spring night, the breeze blows gently, bringing a slight chill.
The street lights in front of the university gate emitted a dim glow. There were few people on the road, with only one or two students occasionally walking by in a hurry.
The entire school gate was shrouded in silence, without the hustle and bustle of the day.
Xu Wanxia looked left and right, and said with emotion: "I remember when I was in high school, I was a very good student. The teacher said that I could at least get into a key university."
Yun Ning looked at her curiously: "Then why didn't you go later?"
Xu Wanxia smiled a little embarrassedly: "My family lives in the village. My father said that it is useless for girls to go to school. It is better to save money to send my younger brother to school. Only men can support the family."
Yun Ning frowned: "What era is this? Why is there still this kind of thinking that favors boys over girls?"
She was born in a loving family.
Her parents loved their little daughter, and even as the man's brother, they loved Yun Ning more.
Xu Wanxia sighed: "Alas, the older generation is like that, and it can't be changed in a short time. Besides, I'm so old now, I've long forgotten the past."
Yun Ning didn't say anything.
If Sister Xu had forgotten, she wouldn't have looked at the university gate with an envious expression.
She just felt that life had to go on and dwelling on the past would only affect her future life.
In the final analysis, it is a helpless choice.
The two were sighing when they suddenly heard a quarrel in front of them.
"I'm telling you, are you sick? Why are you stopping me for no reason? What do you mean by 3 yuan or 5 yuan for water? I don't understand at all."
"That's right, you are crazy, coming here and saying these things to us for no reason!"
"There's no one else here! Why are you pretending? Are you dissatisfied with the money? I'm telling you, I have money! Since you're all college students, how about 1000 per person?"
As soon as the man's voice rang out, Yun Ning clearly felt Xu Wanxia's body stiffen.
Sister Xu also recognized it as Wu Zhong's voice.
Sure enough, Xu Wanxia gritted her teeth, let go of Yun Ning and walked quickly forward.
She immediately saw her husband Wu Zhong, stopping two female college students and making physical advances towards them!
His behavior has aroused public anger.
There were many college students watching, coming here from all directions.
Xu Wanxia was angry, anxious, and embarrassed, so she quickly grabbed Wu Zhong and said, "Didn't you say you came out to get some fresh air? What are you doing?"
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhong did not feel guilty about being caught. Instead, he said shamelessly: "Yes, I was just taking a breath at the entrance of the university and chatting with two college girls. What's wrong?"
"Who would chat with someone like you? It was you who was stopping us!"
One female college student was so angry that she even spoke to Xu Wanxia in a bad tone, "Is this man your husband? Take him back and discipline him. Don't let him go crazy in front of our university gate!"
Seeing more and more people gathered around, Wu Zhong couldn't hold it anymore. He pointed at the female college student's nose and started to curse: "You stinky bitch, how can you talk like that? I like you and I'm giving you face! Isn't it just that the money is not enough? I'm adding more money!"
Wu Zhong's words completely angered everyone.
Everyone came forward to accuse him.
"Are you sick? Why should we female college students be insulted by you like this?"
"Call the security guard over here! Put him on the blacklist and he won't even be allowed to enter our school gate!"
"What's the point of calling the security? Call the police and have them arrest him and give him a good lesson!"
Xu Wanxia was originally angry with Wu Zhong.
But after all, Wu Zhong is her husband.
If he was sent to the police station, she would have to go and pick him up.
Regardless of being sad, Xu Wanxia quickly apologized to everyone: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! My husband has been drinking a lot recently and his mind is not clear. Don't be angry!"
Wu Zhong was accused by everyone and felt a little scared.
As soon as Xu Wanxia spoke, he became tough again.
Then, he slapped Xu Wanxia in the face and cursed, "You stinky woman, who told you to meddle in other people's business! Why apologize? You've made me lose face!"
"Why did you hit her?"
Yun Ning was furious and stepped forward to protect Xu Wanxia. "Sister Xu worked hard in the store to make money, and you came out here to harass female college students. You didn't admit your mistakes and only dared to show off in front of your wife! Coward! A wimp!"
