It was another restless night.
The people in the canteen gradually dispersed. The surrounding noise had been silent for a long time, so quiet that it was somewhat depressing.
Manager Zhang was still drinking in the small room next to the kitchen.
He was the only one here today.
Chen Chen became even more nervous. After eating a few mouthfuls of rice, she said that there were too many things in the kitchen and slipped out.
She had already washed the cutlery in the kitchen and prepared the ingredients for tomorrow's breakfast. She was just waiting to clean up Manager Zhang's table before she could get off work, but there was no movement from there.
Chen Chen hesitated whether she should rush him or not. The time slowly slid to 21.
She finally lost her patience and mustered up her courage to ask,""Manager Zhang, are you done drinking?"
The man, whose face was as red as a pig's liver, stared at her and smiled."It's still early. It's boring for me to drink alone.”
He had been drinking alone until now, and he still wanted to drink!
Was this the intention of the drunkard or the drunkard?
Chen Chen smiled apologetically. I have to go back early. My family's rule is that I have to be home before 22 o'clock. If I'm late, I'll be beaten.”
Manager Zhang said," What kind of lousy rules are these? We're all adults. Why are you still so strict?" Tell your family that you will live in the unit from now on. It's so tiring every day and running back and forth will also waste time. I'll allocate a single dormitory for you. It's settled then."
"No, no, no, no!" Chen Chen was frightened by the word "fixed".
Manager Zhang took a sip of wine and smiled meaningfully. He stared at her and said,"What are you afraid of?"
"I…I…I'm not afraid of anything."
Manager Zhang's words and actions made Chen Chen panic."My parents are strict. There's nothing I can do."
These words obviously aroused Manager Zhang's dissatisfaction.
He reached out to pull Chen Chen and pressed her shoulders onto the stool to sit down. He poured her a glass of wine and told her that she was an adult and should not be so reserved. She even said that she would be alone when she returned to the dormitory. At least, she would be here with her.
Her words and actions were really ambiguous.
Chen Chen braced herself and said," I really have to go. I'll leave the key with you. Remember to lock the door."”
She took out her keys from her bag and placed them on the table. Just as she stood up and turned around, she was pulled over by a strong force.
Chen Chen was frightened. She tried her best to break free from the pair of hands, but she was too weak to break free.
A warm head stuck close to her. She only felt a pain in her face as his beard pierced her face.
The man reeked of alcohol.
"Manager Zhang!" Chen Chen struggled and said in a trembling voice. Let go of me! The door is open!"
Manager Zhang chuckled. He probably misunderstood what she meant.
He gave her a hard smack on her face, then rushed to close the door and lock it before pouncing on her.
"It's the entrance of the cafeteria." Chen Chen ran out in a flash. I'll lock it."
Manager Zhang grabbed her and said," I'll go." Then, he stumbled out.
Chen Chen rushed over and locked the door of the room. Her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her mouth.
She had never encountered such a thing before. She was so anxious that her brain was about to stop working.
She locked herself in the room, feeling like a turtle in a jar.
The thin door was her last line of defense, but it looked so weak.
"Boom!" It was the sound of a door being kicked. The thin door trembled.
Manager Zhang's angry voice came from outside the door."Open the door!"
Chen Chen was so nervous that her body started to tremble. It was as if an evil spirit had arrived outside the door, scaring her so much that her heart was about to race.
She was worried that the door would not be able to withstand the kick, so she threw herself on the door and tried to hold it up. Her heart was in a mess, and she was so afraid that she did not dare to say a word.
When he did not get a response, the man, who felt that he had been played, became irritable. He kicked the door fiercely.
The thin door and frame were shaking, and Chen Chen was shaking as well. Her heart was tightly clenched, and even breathing was difficult.
She was extremely afraid.
However, he still did not dare to say a word. He only held the door tightly, nervously thinking about what would happen if the door was broken. At the thought of this, the blood in his entire body turned cold.
"Open the door! If you don't open it, I'll kick the door open!"
The man had already turned into a demon, threatening fiercely.
Chen Chen's sluggish brain finally remembered to make a phone call. She took out her phone with trembling hands and dialed the number." Hello, this is." She suddenly did not dare to make a sound and quickly hung up.
All of a sudden, she thought of various questions,[The thin door can hear everything I say. If he knows that I'm asking for help, will he be so angry that he kicks the door open and strangles me to death?] After all, drunkards were not clear-headed and lacked rationality. They could not withstand stimulation. Would it be too late for their savior to arrive?
Moreover, if the legal authorities were really alarmed, would there be no way to resolve the matter?
Manager Zhang would be in big trouble, and she would be famous again. She was really afraid of being famous now.
She called the fire department and said that she was locked in the cafeteria and couldn't get off work. She hoped that they would help open the door.
The man outside the door slammed his fist on the door and cursed angrily,"F * ck!”He turned around and left.
Chen Chen slid weakly onto the ground from the door, still not daring to open the door.
She nervously waited for the phone call or the voice outside the door.
When the fire brigade arrived, they were very surprised. They said that the door lock was not broken, so why could they not open it? When they saw the messy cups and plates on the table, they mistakenly thought that Chen Chen was drunk.
They kindly sent Chen Chen home.
That night became the most torturous night of Chen Chen's life.
Her anxiety made her unable to sleep. She tossed and turned in bed, and time passed until dawn.
Are you still going to this class?
If she did, she didn't know how Manager Zhang would make things difficult for her.
Or rather, he would use some means to force her to submit.
If he didn't, he would have worked for nearly a month in vain. Not only would he lose his salary, but he would also probably not be able to get back the deposit he had received.
Chen Chen tossed and turned on the bed. She had a splitting headache. She felt that it was difficult to move forward or backward. There was no easy way out.
In the morning.
She still braced herself and went to work. Her poverty made her afraid to give up her salary.
It was as if she was seriously ill. With a pale face, she went to look for Manager Zhang and proposed that she would resign after five days and get this month's salary. She asked him to find someone to take over the job.
Manager Zhang was silent for a while before he pleaded in a low voice,"I was drunk yesterday. I'm sorry. Can you not leave?"
Chen Chen didn't know how to answer. She couldn't say " it's okay ", and she didn't dare to blame him.
She just wanted this person to return her deposit after paying her salary. She really shouldn't anger him.
Seeing that she was silent, he smiled awkwardly and said,""Actually, I'm not bad. It's just that I live in different places from my wife. It's also very torturous to be alone at your side all year round. I'm also a normal and healthy man. You're also very beautiful, and it's very uncomfortable to look at you every day.”
Chen Chen was speechless.
She was now very sensitive to the words "normal and healthy men".
Manager Zhang didn't get a response and continued,"Your family must be in trouble. Otherwise, such a young girl wouldn't have come to do this job. Other than your salary, I'll give you another 5000 yuan every month. It's fine if you're someone else's mistress, but isn't it good to be mine? I'll treat you well.”
Chen Chen's brain exploded with a bang, and blood gushed out of her face.
So this person knew who she was!
Chen Chen could no longer remain silent, lest he thought that she was weighing the pros and cons.
"I can't do it," she said. I quit."
"Then accompany me once. Just once is enough. I promise to refund your deposit.”
Manager Zhang begged in a low voice, his pair of peach blossom eyes searching for Chen Chen hungrily.
Chen Chen turned around and left. She couldn't communicate with such a person.
Five days later, she received her salary and went to Manager Zhang to ask for the deposit. That person coldly said that she could not find a replacement chef and that she had to work until the new chef came to hand over the deposit. Otherwise, she would not mention it.
Chen Chen knew that he was deliberately making things difficult for her. It would probably take a long time for the handover to happen.
She simply did not want the deposit.
Excluding the loss of the deposit, she worked hard to cook for 70 people this month. Her arm hurt every day, and she only earned 2000 yuan.
She gave the money to her mother and said that the rest of her salary was deducted as a deposit.
Chen Chen did not even give herself a day to rest before she went out to the streets to look for a job.
She still didn't tell Chen Chunhua and Chen Yu that she had lost her job.
It was hard to find a job.
First, the bosses who had seen her resume were all cold.
Secondly, she was becoming more and more timid, often not even having the courage to enter the door when she met the workers.
She wanted to hide herself when she thought about how people were teasing her name, scrutinizing her face over and over again in front of her identity card, and those sarcastic words.
Unknowingly, she had become a complete social phobia and depression patient.
The word "failure" lingered in her mind.
Her heart was always filled with despair and sorrow.
When she was alone, her tears would always flow out inexplicably.
She couldn't sleep at night. She was dizzy all day and her hair fell out in large clumps.
Other than that, she was also very anxious and anxious. It was as if the top of her head was locked by a tight hoop. Her head was dizzy and painful as if it was poured with cement. It was heavy and blocked, and she could not think normally.
Her job search had not been smooth, which made her cry every night. She traced back to the source and determined herself to be useless and a failure.
She thought that even if she found a job, her life would be like this.
She didn't know how to love and was afraid of love.
A lonely life with a bleak future.
Now.
She was also afraid of going out and was resistant to meeting people. Subconsciously, she felt that people looked down on her, despised her, and laughed at her.
When she saw someone she knew on the street, she would hide as far away as she could, like a rat that could not see the light.
There was a voice in her heart that called herself a " laughingstock."
In a short period of time, she had become a woman who had lost her love, marriage, father, job, dignity, and reputation.
She still had two mouths to feed at home and Chen Yu's tuition fees. All of these made her feel suffocated.
It wasn't that she hadn't thought of turning the situation around and posting a video online to set the record straight.
However, she always thought of it but couldn't do it. Once the preparations were made, she would give herself all kinds of reasons to delay. Day after day, she couldn't muster up the courage.
The thought of his face appearing in the video, telling the truth calmly and forcefully, and accepting the public's attention and judgment once again made him so nervous and anxious that his stomach cramped. He also felt a little uneasy, feeling that it might be unnecessary.
If this continued, she would have completely given up on the chance to "clear her name".
She just wanted to die and disappear from this world quietly.
This version of him was weak and weak.
When she was sober, she hated herself and looked down on herself. She tried her best to gather energy to go out and find a job.
When she was in despair, she pitied herself, denied herself completely, and wholeheartedly begged for death.
One day, she finally realized that she was sick, very sick.
She tried to secretly see a psychiatrist and take medicine, but she could only maintain her composure in front of others and ensure that she could fall asleep at night. However, once she stopped taking medicine, she could not sleep at night. She felt dizzy and had a headache. The cold pool in her heart was sizzling again. All kinds of self-destructive, self-pitying, and crazy came out to shout at her, You're trash!
