Chu Xun Leaving the bar under the cover of night, I walked through the streets and alleys back to my home. My parents and my sister Shuisheng had already gone to bed. On the dining table was the late-night snack my mother had left for me. My mother often prepared things for me on regular days, and I had long been accustomed to it. But today, looking at these simple foods, for some reason, I felt especially warm in my heart.
I had gotten into a fight with someone at night, and then endured intense training in the basement, exhausted and famished. I wolfed down the late-night snack, then climbed into bed and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, when he woke up, it was already noon.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a note pinned prominently on the desk drawer. He took the note and couldn't help but smile.
"The note is clipped outside the drawer to remind you that the money is inside the drawer. Miss has so much pocket money that she scares herself, so there's no need to be polite when giving you half. If you dare to spend it too quickly, be careful, I'll really clean you up. (PS: Chu Xun, you drooled on a pillow while sleeping, it looks really ugly!)"
At the end, there is also a funny emoji sticking out its tongue.
The writing on the note is crooked and ugly, clearly the unique handwriting of the scorpion dung poison from Wushan City. It can only be the handwriting of my sister Shuisheng. Shuisheng also knows about the relationship between our father and brother. Yesterday, when she saw our father not giving pocket money to our brother, she started planning to "share the spoils" with him.
She was just worried that if she gave the money to her brother in person, it would seem like charity, which would hurt her brother's self-esteem. On the other hand, if she gave him the money when he wasn't paying attention, it would seem too formal. So she left a note with a teasing tone and didn't forget to make fun of her brother drooling in his sleep. She knew that the fatherly love her brother lacked couldn't be simply replaced with money. But the young girl stubbornly believed that giving her brother half of the pocket money their father gave her was equivalent to giving him half of the father's love.
Chu Xun actually didn't lack money, and her mother and sister knew this. Every month, the bar owner would transfer money into her mother's account, saying it was Chu Xun's compensation for helping out at the bar. When Chu Xun and her sister used their mother's phone, they could see the monthly transfer information and knew that the compensation was not small. Despite his young age and lack of other work experience, Chu Xun didn't know that the so-called compensation far exceeded the salary of a bar waitress. Although he occasionally had doubts, he accepted it calmly. Therefore, when he looked at the note his sister wrote and the money left in the drawer, he could also understand his sister's intentions.
" Chu Shuisheng, don't let me catch you in the act!" He imagined his sister mocking the disgusting sight of drool at the corner of his mouth while he slept, and a warm feeling flowed through his heart. Despite this, he continued to grumble as he got out of bed, muttering to himself as he dressed. "This little brat, she's got quite the knack for teasing."
He was hungry and went to the kitchen to find the lunch his mother had prepared for him. He was in a good mood and ate quickly, accidentally flinging some food onto the wall with his chopsticks. After the meal, he used a cloth with cleaning solution to carefully wipe the oil stain off the wall, then checked the recovery of his arm. He tore off the tape wrapped around his arm, removed the gauze, and saw that the wound was gradually scabbing and healing. Satisfied with the progress, he decided not to re-bandage it.
After that, he had nothing to do and felt extremely bored, so he went back to his room and took a nap. When he woke up in the afternoon, he went for a leisurely stroll by the seaside. In the evening, he went home and had dinner with his parents and sister. His father still treated him with indifference, only maintaining a superficial politeness. Whenever he was at home, Chu Xun felt restless and uneasy. He had no choice but to leave home early and head to the bar.
That night, there was no large-scale brawl at the bar. Chu Xun was dressed as a waiter, with a foil-styled hairdo, carrying a tray and shuttling back and forth among the guests like an aloe plant; another human-shaped aloe plant uncle Kun exuded the lazy demeanor of a middle-aged person, sitting at the bar with a cigarette in hand, watching a soap opera on TV, occasionally showing a silly smile. This night was no different from many other peaceful nights in the past.
Ai Xiaomei This evening, I visited a cat-themed bar for the second time. In addition to singing and drinking, I also danced in the dance floor, drawing cheers and applause from the bar patrons. Chu Xun During breaks at work, I chatted with the latter from time to time. Over time, the two of us became more familiar with each other. Ai Xiaomei It was then that I slowly realized that this pretty young waitress had stood up for me twice yesterday. I immediately developed a strong liking for this young man and generously gave him a ticket to the Lefei concert, inviting him to go with me.
Chu Xun Naturally, I accepted with pleasure.
After the bar closed, Chu Xun continued to train in the basement, then dragged his tired body back home, ate the supper his mother prepared, and then climbed into bed and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, around noon, he excitedly got out of bed. He had lunch plans with uncle Kun today.
He quickly put on his clothes, hurriedly washed up, told his mother who was busy in the kitchen that he wouldn't be eating at home for lunch, and then ran out like the wind. It was the height of summer, with the heat rising and the weather unusually hot and stuffy. As he walked on the street, he was in a cheerful mood, not at all bothered by the hot weather. He passed by a bus stop, went past a large shopping mall, walked through several streets, and turned at the end of a road. At the end of the road stood a telephone pole. This telephone pole used to be covered with advertisements for the treatment of impotence, premature ejaculation, and infertility, bearing the heavy responsibility for male happiness and human reproduction. However, today it was covered by a promotional flyer for the Levi concert. Chu Xun whistled as he turned the corner and walked straight to the restaurant where he had arranged to meet uncle Kun.
It was a Shaanxi restaurant called "Shishang Northwest". The restaurant was popular in the area because of its fair prices, generous portions, and well-balanced flavors.
Before long, Akun also arrived at the bend at the end of the road. He saw the concert advertisement on the utility pole and stopped in his tracks.
