If Xuan Hao knew what the boss was thinking, he would definitely be greatly encouraged, and maybe even open a chain store for him.
After putting the banknotes back at the cashier, looking at the customers leaving, and glancing at the time showing 16:00 on the computer, Xuan Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
It was time to get off work in one hour. A nine-to-five job was comfortable, and workers would never work overtime! But even so, he still had to stand for the last shift. It would be bad if he was passive and had his wages deducted.
He doesn’t have much money to begin with, but if he deducts some more, it will be gone. Well, although he doesn’t care about money, you can’t help but give it.
After get off work, Xuanhao politely greeted his boss and said goodbye, changed into his convenience store work clothes, and left the store.
I looked at the time, it was just after five o'clock, still very early.
He walked to an alley and suddenly turned.
Soon he stopped in front of a cafe hidden deep in an alley.
"Hey, the boss is here?"
A lazy female voice came from behind the counter of the cafe.
A figure was leaning on the beanbag, completely hidden behind the counter. Customers passing by could easily think that there was no one here.
Under the soft light, you can clearly see the tears in the corners of her eyes, probably because she just woke up...
She was wearing loose casual clothes, and on the table next to her were magazines, game consoles, potato chips and Coke, as if she had regarded this place as a homestead.
"I said..." Xuan Hao was a little helpless, "Can't you look at the store? This is the store you said you wanted to open!"
As he spoke, he picked up a fat cat on the ground. This cat was probably as lazy as its owner.
This is a cat cafe, which Su Enxi proposed to open. She said her dream is to open a small shop, any shop, no matter whether it makes money or not.
"You don't care about anything like this. What if these cats get lost?"
Xuanhao looked at the cats scattered around. The cats here seemed to be completely free-range. It was more like a cat nest than a cat cafe. Because there were almost no customers, the entire store had completely become the territory of lazy cats.
"As long as they remember that this is their home, they will always come back." Su Enxi didn't care.
She stretched, stood up reluctantly, made a cup of coffee and put it in front of Xuan Hao, who was already sitting at the table with the cat in his arms.
"Is your service attitude really that of a shop owner?" Xuanhao took a sip of coffee, which was so bitter.
"What do you know? Some people like this kind of attitude." Su Enxi yawned and retreated into her own nest.
"Alas..." Xuan Hao sighed helplessly.
He didn't understand how this guy became like this? Like a salted fish who had lost his dream, he remembered that this guy was very diligent when he was working under Lu Mingze, performing tasks all over the world, even though most of them were drunkards.
Mai tried her best, but it didn’t look like this!
Or the boss she works with is too good, neither exploiting the labor force nor anyone dares to mess with her. Now she is so powerful that she can go anywhere. Without pressure, she naturally has no motivation.
Xuanhao was thinking about whether to find something for this guy to do.
Suddenly, he saw a cat in the corner.
It was a cat in a cage. It seemed that it noticed his gaze, and the cage became commotion. The cat whimpered and meowed softly. It was rubbing against the iron cage with its claws.
The sounds form a strange symphony.
"Who is this cat?"
He came to the cage and reached out to open the cage.
"don't want!"
Su Enxi suddenly screamed strangely.
"What's wrong?" Xuan Hao was a little confused.
"This cat was picked up," Su Enxi said. "It is injured and is not very obedient. Don't let it out yet. If it runs away, it will die."
Xuanhao was stunned and took a closer look.
Sure enough, this was a skinny cat that looked obviously malnourished. It was exhausted and lying in the cage just because of the struggle just now.
"Why did you pick up some wild cats?"
"What's wrong with wild cats?" Su Enxi asked, "Didn't you pick me up as well? Most of the cats here were picked up outside. They consider this place their home and will never leave again."
"..."
Xuanhao said nothing more.
He just suddenly felt that what he had done seemed to have meaning, at least he had given these homeless little guys a home.
He knelt down and unlocked the cage.
The cat slowly got up and looked at the humans outside the cage warily, not daring to go outside.
Xuan Hao put his hand into the cage and touched the cat, feeling its tight body.
He took out a rice ball from his trouser pocket, which he had brought out from the convenience store. Of course, the person who paid for it was originally going to give it to himself as dinner.
The cat smelled the food and stared at the rice ball in Xuanhao's hand.
He broke off a small piece of the rice ball and put it near the cat's mouth.
The cat carefully ate the food in front of him, felt the human touch on his body, and finally relaxed a little.
It licked the rice ball clean, stretched out its tongue and licked Xuanhao's finger, then returned to the cage and huddled up.
"What, I feed it something and it refuses to eat at all!" Su Enxi looked at this scene and said with some resentment, "Thankfully I was kind enough to pick it up and bring it back."
"This is probably the so-called personality charm." Xuan Hao wiped the oil stains on his hands and stood up.
"Okay, I'm going back, you can continue to stay here."
In the end, Su Enxi escaped the fate of being exploited because of a cat.
Xuanhao walked out of the cat cafe and closed the door behind him.
He probably understood that this was not a cafe to receive people at all, it was just a cat's nest.
Su Enxi has not become worse because of what happened to her when she was a child. Even though she remembers those things better than anyone else, she may hate those hypocritical people, but she still feels pity for these innocent lives, just like Xuan Hao himself, even if she hates them
The injustice of the world did not choose to destroy the world.
"everything will get better."
Suddenly I felt that the world was actually quite good, but not very gentle. But there were always some people who were gentle. There were still many kind-hearted people in this world. Even if he was wandering around the world like a ghost, he would be warmed by these guys from time to time.
This may also be the reason why he didn't become a walking zombie.
…
After delivering food to Chu Zihang, he walked out of the hospital.
Lu Mingfei walked aimlessly on the street, not wanting to go home.
Stopping in front of an Internet cafe, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't played games for a long time.
He turned on a machine in the corner and logged into the online game.
He hasn’t logged in for a long time. This game is not like those shoddy games. There is no return gift package, and only a sign-in reward pops up. But unfortunately, he has not logged in for a long time and cannot receive the accumulated rewards. There are only rewards for the day, which is better than nothing, but he also
I just don't care about these things.
But what surprised him was that as soon as he went online, someone was actually looking for him in the game's friend list.
