Chapter 95: Slap in the Face
In the afternoon, Broly and others did not go out wandering around. Instead, they ordered some desserts and fruits. In the private room of Osmanthus Fang, they took out playing cards and played poker. A game of ghost cards.
Leone felt a little strange. She thought her job was just a tour guide, but now it seems that she also has to do the work of accompanying people.
Of course, it’s not bad to be a companion for a group of children. Even if there is no reward for this part, the lunch alone is worth the price.
“Yeah, I’m drained!”
Black Eyes drew the two of spades, directly ending his game.
The only ones left in the venue to draw ghost cards were Broly, Chitong and Leonai.
[These two people, it’s easy to tell which card in their hand is a ghost card, right? 】
Broly and Chitong each have three cards in their hands. Whenever the person who draws a card moves their hand to the ghost card, their faces will show a relaxed expression, but as long as they move to other cards, they will also They invariably act like holding their breath.
In the current duel, Leonai has no doubt that if he draws out all the cards and leaves the field early, these two people will definitely be able to play the game of drawing ghost cards forever.
"It's my turn to draw a card."
Leone said this, and when the girl looked relaxed, she easily drew the ghost card in Chitong's hand.
Leone had a deliberately ugly look on her face and placed her unshuffled cards in front of Broly.
Broly is not blind. He decisively drew another card and cleared another card from his hand. After handing the remaining two cards to Chitong, Chitong also followed his instructions. The change in his expression quickly cleared a card from his hand.
“Yeah~”
After several rounds of cards were drawn, Chitong left the field first, leaving only Broly and Leonai still dueling.
Under Leonai's deliberate action, no matter how the boy shuffled the cards behind her, she drew the final ghost card.
“I lost!”
In the end, the game ended with Broly’s face showing joy and Leonai’s face showing helplessness, and her defeat ended.
As a companion, you must always be dedicated and make the little boss happy, which is the embodiment of Leonai's professionalism.
This kind of game continued until the evening, and it ended after Broly and others ordered another table of dishes and everyone had a full meal.
"Ms. Hill, we are going home with you. When will you get off work?"
"Ah, there are still three hours until you get off work."
"It doesn't matter. Since the guest wants to go home with you to pick up clothes, it's okay for you to leave early."
Today, just the business of Broly and others booking a private room for half a day is higher than usual. Yajian's normal turnover has more than thirty times increased.
Therefore, the boss of Guihuafang graciously allowed his confused employees to leave early, and even allowed the early leave application of the bun-headed girl who planned to leave early with the excuse that she was afraid that Hill would mess up the matter.
. . . .
Everyone followed Hill home.
In the yard, Hill's mother had a look of astonishment on her face when she saw her daughter coming back so early.
"Hill, are you absent from work?"
"No, it was the store manager who allowed me to leave early."
"Then who are these children?"
"They are customers in the store."
"What do you do? Did you bring a guest with you?"
The woman was a little confused and took her daughter to the side to ask.
"Mom, the dress you want to keep belongs to the little guest at the front."
Hill explained to his mother.
“Are they here to get their clothes back?”
The woman frowned and looked at her daughter with displeasure, as if blaming her for not handling this matter well.
“That dress is very precious and I don’t have enough money to pay for it.”
Hill told the truth.
"You have been working for more than half a year, and your family has not taken away all your money. Where has your money gone?"
The woman looked even more worried.
"I'm sorry, I spent part of it to buy books."
Hill lowered her head, reading was her hobby, and she spent some money on books.
Of course, most of it is spent at home, such as buying jewelry for my mother and buying pipes for my father, which are relatively expensive.
"You spend money lavishly, don't you know how to save money?" The woman lectured her daughter. Perhaps she thought of the jewelry her daughter gave her before, and her expression softened a little.
“How much money is left for the clothes?”
“Twenty-seven million nine thousand six hundred yuan.”
"How much?"
The woman's pitch directly rose an octave.
"Mom, this is what happened..."
Hill used the simplest words to retell the story about clothes he heard at noon.
“They are lying, trying to steal money and blackmail people!”
Hill's mother also had the same reaction as the bun-headed girl.
"Auntie, as long as you return the clothes, it will be fine."
The person who spoke was Hua Ling, who was worried that there might be something wrong with Hill, so she applied for early leave and followed her.
“Who are you?”
“Mom, this is my best friend and a colleague in the store.”
Hill introduced his best friend to his mother.
“Your friend?”
The woman was a little skeptical, as if she didn’t believe that her daughter could really make friends outside.
"Auntie, now is not the time to talk about this. You have to return the guest's clothes."
Hua Ling urged.
"Isn't this a trick you set up for my daughter to get back the clothes for my son?"
The woman looked at the bun-headed girl with some suspicion.
“How is that possible?!”
Hua Ling’s eyes widened.
“How is it impossible? My daughter can’t think of such a thing.”
The woman seemed to really think so, but she didn't want to get angry with outsiders. She turned to look at her daughter in front of her and educated her.
“Hill, my mother has told you many times to keep it with your brother. Your brother likes that dress very much. If you take the dress away, he will cry, fuss and be sad. Is that what you want to see happen? "
Hill: "..."
Being wronged is a common thing, but when it happens again.
For some reason, she wanted to hide in her room and read a book.
"Hey, over there, it's my idea to ask your daughter to come back and ask for clothes."
Broly suddenly interrupted.
“Do you think I will believe it?”
The woman looked over and raised her eyebrows.
“Are you questioning me?”
"So what if I question you?"
Since Broly and the others were just a group of children, and the oldest one looked about the same age as her own daughter, the woman didn't take it seriously at all.
“Pa~”
But the next moment, the woman was slapped on the face.
The whole person fell to the ground, a little confused, and some blood spilled from his mouth.
"You hit me?"
Feeling the burning pain on her face, the woman looked at the boy who suddenly appeared in front of her in disbelief and glared at him.
“This slap is just telling you, don’t question my words. If you still don’t believe it, I will slap you on the other side of the face.
Of course, I will hold back my strength. I’ll blow your head off, and I won’t stop slapping you in the face until you believe in me and your daughter.”
