After hearing that Qiao Yuan had called the police, Wang Hao and his men dispersed.
Gathering a crowd to make trouble?
No, no, no, they just came to Houhai to see the scenery.
Qiao Yuan was still a little confused, but seeing that Wang Hao and his men hadn't left, she didn't dare to run around and could only obediently follow Chen Xi back to the teahouse.
After Chen Xi returned to the teahouse, the guests at the two tables gave him a thumbs up and praised, "Boss, you're amazing, you're a real man …"
Not to mention who was right and who was wrong, just Chen Xi blocking the entrance of the teahouse by himself was enough to make them applaud and praise him.
This boss was very competent.
Qin Ruoying whispered to the little girl at the bar, making her giggle from time to time.
After seeing that Chen Xi had returned, the little girl immediately rubbed against Qin Ruoying's arms and reached out for Chen Xi to carry her.
After Chen Xi picked her up from Qin Ruoying's arms, the little girl asked sweetly, "Papa, what were you doing outside?"
"Papa was reasoning with them, why? Did they scare you? "
Hearing this, the little girl immediately shook her head and pouted, "No, I don't like them!"
Children were sometimes very strange, and the first impression a stranger left on them was very important.
If this person was someone they liked, then they would immediately be very kind to this person, as if they were familiar with him.
But if this person wasn't someone they liked, then sorry, the child would stay as far away as possible. Unless their parents were around, they wouldn't get too close.
The group of people outside was obviously not the little girl's favorite.
Chen Xi touched the little girl's little face and said with a smile, "This is our home. If you don't like them, then Papa won't let them in, okay?"
"Okay!"
The little girl happily acted coquettishly.
At this time, Qiao Yuan slowly walked over.
After hesitating for a moment, she said very embarrassedly, "Boss, I'm sorry for the trouble …"
After saying that, Qiao Yuan suddenly bowed to Chen Xi.
Before Chen Xi could say anything, Qin Ruoying waved at her and smiled. "It's nothing. Why don't you come over and have a chat?"
Hearing the Lady Boss's words, Qiao Yuan obediently sat beside her.
"How long have you been in this business?"
"Half a month …"
"How much did you earn?"
Qiao Yuan was stunned for a moment. Then, she said hesitantly, "If this order is included, it should be more than twenty thousand yuan. However, the bill hasn't been paid yet …"
"Why do you want to do this? If I remember correctly, you are a student of Beijing Normal University, right? Qing Bei is from Beijing Normal University, and Beijing Normal University is known as one of the four famous universities in Beijing. It can even be ranked in the top 20 in the country … Do you think it's appropriate for a student from Beijing Normal University to be a prostitute? "
Qin Ruoying's voice was very soft and gentle, but every word pierced Qiao Yuan's heart.
Qiao Yuan lowered her head in silence.
After a long while, her tears flowed down silently.
Seeing that his wife was about to talk about life ideals with others, Chen Xi held the little fellow and sat in the center of the lobby, leaving some private space for them.
Qiao Yuan sobbed in a low voice. Qin Ruoying waited for a moment, then took out a few tissues and handed them to her.
"Can you tell me why?"
Qiao Yuan took the tissues and wiped her tears.
After taking a deep breath, she looked at Qin Ruoying and said sadly, "My father is sick … He needs money … I've done a lot of work, but I can't make any money …"
"Someone recommended me to work in a KTV … I was afraid, so I didn't go … But I really need money, so they recommended me to be a prostitute …"
Qiao Yuan's family was very ordinary. Her father was a middle school teacher, and her mother was an elementary school teacher. Their income was not high. They relied on her father's tuition classes to earn some extra money. Their family barely reached the standard of a well-off family.
She was a very happy girl. Although her family was not rich, she did not have to worry about food and clothing. Her family was happy. She could be regarded as a pretty girl in a small family.
Qiao Yuan also worked hard. She was the top liberal arts scholar in her county during the college entrance examination.
However, sometimes the reality was more cliché than stories.
After all, life was like an electrocardiogram. If it was smooth sailing, it meant that you were dead.
Three years ago, Qiao Yuan's father was diagnosed with chronic uremia. So there were only two paths left in front of them, lifelong dialysis or kidney transplant.
The price of dialysis was not too expensive. The charge was slightly different in each place. The price of a single dialysis was about 400 yuan. A patient had to undergo dialysis at least three or four times a week, about 13 times a month. It cost 5,200 yuan, about 60,000 yuan a year.
Sixty thousand yuan didn't sound like much.
However, for an ordinary family in a small county, this was already a huge expense.
Because of his health, Qiao Yuan's father was forced to close the tuition classes. However, he did not quit. Instead, he insisted on going to work every day.
Qiao Yuan's father often said, "Qiao Qiao, don't worry about family matters. Just study hard. When you graduate and find a good job, dad can enjoy life … "
This illness was not life-threatening for a while, but it would put a lot of financial pressure on a family.
So every time Qiao Yuan returned home, she would feel that her parents had aged a lot.
It was also because of this that Qiao Yuan worked part-time while studying hard to earn scholarships since her freshman year.
She had done many jobs, such as waitress, tutor, courier, and part-time model. Part-Time model was the fastest way to earn money, but this kind of good thing was not common.
In fact, she had the qualifications to become a contract model, but Qiao Yuan did not forget that she was still a student. So, she decisively refused.
She wanted to give her father a kidney transplant, but it was a sky-high price.
The kidney source started at 200,000 yuan, and the surgery cost 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. After the kidney transplant was successful, he would need to take anti-rejection drugs, which cost about 10,000 yuan a month.
After half a year, she would have to pray that there would be no infection or rejection. Otherwise, the condition might worsen.
Moreover, a kidney source was not easy to find.
Although a kidney transplant might not be able to cure him, compared to lifelong dialysis, a kidney transplant was indeed the most ideal treatment.
So, Qiao Yuan only wanted to save 300,000 yuan as soon as possible, in case a suitable kidney source appeared in the future and she did not have the money to give her father a kidney transplant.
Qiao Yuan was very thrifty. Even the clothes she was wearing were borrowed from her best friend.
There were thirty-eight cups of black tea in Chen Xi's teahouse. If it were not for the fact that the bar saleswoman had to wait near the bar at all times, and sometimes she would wait for a whole day, she would not come in and sit down for a cup of tea.
Being a bar saleswoman was indeed very profitable. In addition, she had some beauty.
So, Qiao Yuan had successfully slaughtered a few fat sheep in just half a month.
The money came so easily, but it also made Qiao Yuan feel a sense of guilt.
So, she saved these people's phone numbers.
She had already decided that when her father recovered from his illness, she would return the money to these people one by one and sincerely say, "Thank you."
She really could not think of any other way, so …
Sorry.
Qin Ruoying was a very qualified listener.
She sat there and quietly listened to Qiao Yuan's story.
After Qiao Yuan finished her story, Qiao Yuan could no longer hold it in. She suddenly lay on the bar counter and burst into tears.
Perhaps she had been suppressed for too long, so the girl cried very sadly.
Seeing this, Qin Ruoying gently put the tissue next to Qiao Yuan.
Then, she looked at Chen Xi thoughtfully.
Chen Xi saw this and nodded gently at her.
With his five senses, he could easily determine whether the girl was lying or not.
When Qiao Yuan was talking just now, Chen Xi was listening quietly by the side.
So he was very sure that the girl was not lying.
