As a new generation of humans, there were many people who lowered their heads to look at their phones. All kinds of apps occupied the fragmented time in most people's lives. How good could their eyes be? Su Tong was no exception. Coupled with the recent difficulties at work, she had insomnia almost every night. There were a few red streaks in the white of her eyes.
But now, there was not a single trace of red blood. The whites of his eyes were clear, like a baby with a faint blue glow.
"What is going on?" Su Tong held her phone screen and looked left and right. She couldn't tell if what had happened just now had really happened or if it was just an illusion.
At this moment, an old but energetic voice sounded from the side." Young man, are you feeling unwell?”
Su Tong was immersed in the emotions in her eyes, but she did not know that his behavior was a little strange in the eyes of others. Su Tong only reacted when she heard this and put down her phone." It's okay, Grandpa. My eyes were a little uncomfortable just now."”
The person was dressed in plain and elegant clothes. The camel-colored cashmere sweater was as calm as his gaze, making people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze, but it did not lose the aura of a superior.
It was none other than Old Gu.
"You helped him get back 20,000 copper coins, and he gave you such a worthless painting. Aren't you angry?”
"What's there to be angry about? I didn't want any thank you gifts.”Su Tong replied and then reacted,"Sir, how did you know about this?”
Old Gu didn't answer him. Instead, he nodded." Yes, not bad."”
As for what was good, Su Tong was confused.
"You're looking for a job, right? I happen to have a position here. Go to XX Street tomorrow.”
Then, he said the name of the shop-Baoyuan House. It was obvious that it was an antique shop.
Su Tong knew that street. It was adjacent to an art school, and the surrounding high-end art consumers were more concentrated. A group of well-known artists had already opened a gallery there. Of course, there were also various antique shops.
"Sir, you're really godly…"
Old Gu knew what he wanted to ask, so he told him about it and told him not to be late tomorrow.
It turned out that the owner of the wonton shop had not said it casually. He had really thought of a way for him.
This job opportunity came so unexpectedly and suddenly. It was just a pillow that came when he was sleepy. Su Tong was stunned for a moment before she quickly thanked him." Thank you, sir!”
The old man only smiled and nodded before turning around and leaving.
Although she did not know if she could do the job, Su Tong was filled with gratitude for meeting such kind people one after another. The depression in her chest also dissipated a lot because of Sir System's trust.
Then, his gaze fell back on the scroll in his hand that had been rolled up again. He thought that this painting might really be a good thing. Then, he raised his head and looked around. There was nothing unusual in his eyes. It seemed that he had been hallucinating just now.
At this moment, Su Tong no longer had the energy to continue shopping. She was going to try the place Sir System mentioned tomorrow. Even if she crammed at the last minute, she would not be prepared at all.
After making up her mind, Su Tong immediately went home. She waited until she reached the convenience store near the rented house and bought a few packets of instant noodles and a few ham sausages. She ate her lunch and dinner just like that.
The place Su Tong rented was an old residential building, which was built before elevators were common. The rented house was on the fifth floor of the top floor. It had a two-bedroom and one-living room structure. Su Tong rented one of the rooms, and the tenant of the other one had withdrawn his lease not long ago. In the past two days, people often came to see the house, but no tenant had been confirmed for the time being. The old landlady was heartbroken and complained about it several times.
It was convenient for Su Tong. She could enjoy the kitchen and bathroom for herself with the rent of 1,200 yuan a month.
Although the building was old, there was a small vegetable market and convenience store not far away. It was about a ten-minute walk from the subway, so it was very convenient. More importantly, compared to the high-rise elevator building district, there was more smoke and fire here. The uncles and aunties in the district still retained their previous habits, often visiting, playing cards, and chatting.
On the first floor before Su Tong went upstairs, Uncle Zhang was tending to vegetables at his door. There was only a small area in front of the door on the first floor, but Uncle Zhang had developed a small vegetable garden.
"Uncle Zhang." Su Tong greeted.
"Aiya, how can young people always eat junk food?”Uncle Zhang saw the instant noodles and ham sausages that Su Tong had bought from the convenience store. He muttered to himself and pulled Su Tong to pick two handfuls of vegetables and onions from his vegetable garden.
When she arrived at the house, Su Tong spent all her time preparing for the job interview tomorrow. She flipped through the set of antiques and cultural relics books that she had bought over the years, hoping that she would be able to get a job tomorrow.
As he was flipping through the pages, a WeChat notification came from his phone. It was a message from the family group "I love my family". Needless to say, this group name was the work of Su Tong's mother.
"Son, have you eaten?"
"Yes, what are you doing with my dad?”
"Haha, let me show you your dad's masterpiece.”
A picture was uploaded in the WeChat dialog box. It was a braised carp. It looked very good.
"Your dad just caught this today. It weighs half a catty!”
This message was sent by his mother via voice chat. She sounded very happy and then asked Su Tong if her work was going well today.
Su Tong silently looked at the antique book beside her. She didn't want her parents to worry about her, so she quickly replied,"Everything is fine."
On the other end, Mother Su nagged a few more times, telling her to get along well with her colleagues, to work seriously, to eat regularly, and so on. Su Tong felt a little bitter when she heard that.
He had to hurry up and get the job done. Otherwise, he would be exposed very soon. He opened his AliPay account and looked at his balance. It was barely enough for the rent and food for the next quarter.
She didn't know when she would get a reply to the job application email she sent last night. It seemed that she had to seize the opportunity at the Bao Yuan House tomorrow. With this thought in mind, Su Tong turned on her computer and found a few other appreciation books. She read them carefully and took notes until it was almost 11:20 pm before washing up and going to bed.
