Chapter 7
Hearing this voice, I could tell it was Sister Ling. It seemed my luck was not bad; I probably wouldn't be beaten much more.
"Aiyo, Sister Ling, it's nothing, just some small squabbles!" Huang Laohu was also quite polite when he saw Yu Manling, and didn't have the meaning of not putting Sister Ling in his eyes like he did when talking to me just now.
"Ya, Brother Huang, I don't know what wind blew you here!" Suddenly, a few more people came in at this time.
It was none other than the late-arriving Wang Li. Wang Li's appearance time had to be said to be truly coincidental; he had to wait until Sister Ling came out before coming over.
Huang Laohu smiled at Wang Li and then turned to look at Sister Ling. It was clear he didn't put Wang Li in his eyes.
I was lying on the ground, and my eyes happened to see Wang Li clenching his fists and gritting his teeth. It was clear that Wang Li didn't get along with Huang Laohu.
"Brother Huang, I don't know where my little brother offended you. I apologize to you on behalf of Lihuang. For my sake, why not just let him go!" Sister Ling looked at me on the ground and said to Huang Laohu with a smile.
"Sister Ling, you're slapping my face. Sister Ling's face must naturally be given!" Huang Laohu signaled the few people beside him, and the few people stopped their punches and kicks one after another.
At this moment, I felt the beating around me stop, and my body relaxed. I forcibly endured the pain on my body, and Su Xueyan on the side hurriedly ran over to help me up when she saw me.
"I gave face, but this stinking bitch didn't give me face just now, and even slapped me. How do you explain this?" Huang Laohu suddenly pointed at Su Xueyan beside me and spoke.
Hearing this, Su Xueyan's face looked ugly. She had originally thought this matter might be over, but she didn't expect Huang Laohu to still be holding onto her tightly.
Before Sister Ling could speak, I was angry: "What exactly do you want?"
"I don't want anything, but I think you're quite interesting. How about this, if you have the guts next weekend, come to the Black Skin Bar in Xijie to find me!" Huang Laohu looked at me with interest.
I thought about it carefully and then nodded, saying, "Fine!"
Seeing my nod, Huang Laohu laughed loudly: "Good, you've got guts. Then it's a deal, I'll wait for you at the Black Skin Internet Cafe next weekend!"
"Brother Huang, it's not very good for you to poach people in front of me, is it?" Sister Ling frowned and looked at Huang Laohu, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Sister Ling, you say that, I just want to get to know this little brother, no other meaning. And the Black Skin Internet Cafe is also your bar, aren't you worried?" Huang Laohu smiled.
Hearing that the Black Skin Internet Cafe was also Sister Ling's, I was very surprised in my heart. I couldn't tell, Sister Ling actually had quite a few industries under her, a proper little rich woman.
"How could I not be worried, it's just that Yang Yun is my little brother, so it's normal for me to care about him more!"
I looked at Sister Ling in surprise, not knowing when I suddenly became her little brother. However, it was clear that Sister Ling was protecting me, making Huang Laohu have reservations and not dare to deal too heavy a hand on me.
"Oh, so it's Sister Ling's little brother. Sister Ling's little brother is my little brother. Sister Ling, rest assured, I will definitely take good care of him when the time comes!"
Huang Laohu didn't want to waste time here either, so he left with his people after a few simple words.
Wang Li hurriedly apologized to Sister Ling: "Sorry Sister Ling, I had something to do just now and came late, it's my dereliction of duty!"
"I hope you know your job responsibilities, otherwise I don't mind talking to Little Tao about changing someone else!" Yu Manling looked at Wang Li coldly. After saying this, she left without caring about me and Su Xueyan.
Wang Li snorted, looked at me, and then went back with San Mao and the other person.
And at this time, it was almost time to get off work; it was already 1:00 AM.
Su Xueyan was very grateful to me: "Thank you so much, you saved me again!"
"It's fine, but I suggest you change jobs!"
Su Xueyan was indeed not suitable for working in places like KTV. She dressed conservatively and couldn't let go. More importantly, she wasn't like those other women who were already old hands in the flower bushes, not caring if people took advantage of them.
Su Xueyan didn't speak, but it was clear she was very hesitant. However, it was true that the wages for this kind of work at the KTV couldn't be compared to other jobs.
I hadn't been beaten for long just now, and there weren't any scars on my body, just some pain. I guessed bruises were unavoidable, but compared to the past, this was just a drop in the bucket and didn't count for anything, so I didn't want to deal with it.
Su Xueyan wanted to treat me to barbecue and beer. Tomorrow was Monday, and Su Xueyan probably had classes, but she didn't care at all and insisted on taking me to eat barbecue. And I hadn't eaten skewers for a long time, so I was very itchy in my heart and agreed to her.
We arrived at the barbecue stall, ordered a case of beer and some barbecue. Su Xueyan overturned her past image and actually started blowing beer directly, which shocked me. I hurriedly asked her if she was okay.
Su Xueyan had a crying and laughing expression, shook her head, and then gulped down the remaining half bottle of beer in one breath.
Su Xueyan's action made me click my tongue. I didn't expect this little beauty who was usually quiet to be so domineering when drinking, but it was also clear that she wasn't in a very good mood.
Because she drank too fast, she coughed twice. I hurriedly patted her back and said, "Alright, stop drinking!"
Su Xueyan ignored me, took out another bottle of beer, opened it, and wanted to drink again. I grabbed her: "Stop drinking!"
"No, I want to drink, I want to drink!" Su Xueyan said, making a scene, her voice gradually having a sobbing tone.
I gently held her in my arms, patted her back, and gave her comfort.
"Wuwuwu!" Su Xueyan burst into tears directly, as if all the suppressed emotions from before were vented out.
But this made it miserable for me. The eyes of the people around were all looking at me, their expressions filled with disdain. I was probably mostly despised as a scumbag.
After crying for a long time, Su Xueyan slowly broke free from my arms, took a sip of beer again, her face flushed red: "Do you know? This kind of thing isn't the first time. Although no one has ever succeeded, the faces I see every day are all obscene and unbearable. These people don't treat people as people at all. No one cares about your feelings; they only care about their own enjoyment. If they are happy, they will reward you with some tips; if they are unhappy, what greets you is a beating or a slap. I also want to resign, I don't want to do it anymore, but I can't, I really can't. My sister needs me, my family needs me, my mother also needs me. They all need this salary!"
"Honestly, sometimes, I feel life is really tiring. Many times I want to die, but people like us at the bottom of society, where can we decide our own fate!"
