Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
With her resume, Yu Lili almost ran through all the employment centers in the capital. However, either the job was not right for her, or the wages were too low. The highest wage did not even reach a monthly salary of 5,000. In a city like the capital, there would be little left after she paid for food and accommodation. So, after an entire day, nothing was achieved. Yu Lili felt that she had fallen to the bottom. Even when she first came to the city and was conned more than one million by her roommate, she was not as sad as now. Dest.i.tute.
When she first moved out of the orphanage, the director said, she did not look like someone with good luck. At that time, she smiled. Who knew she would have fallen to such a situation.
At five o’clock in the evening, she bought an instant noodle in a convenience store near the employment center and sat under a patio umbrella next to the convenience store. This was her third instant noodle today. Yu Lili looked down at her phone, scanning through the phone numbers that she had just saved at the employment center, and suddenly received a text message.
The sound of high heels was getting closer and closer. Yu Lili looked up and saw a woman with a pretty face at first glance. She had a delicate makeup on her face and was looking at her with her arms crossed. Wearing a beautiful magenta skirt and a white jacket, holding a new Chanel bag, she also had the watch and accessories that showed off the owner’s taste and wealth. Seeing this woman, Yu Lili felt she was a bit familiar and frowned. “You are…”
“Hao Yu.”
After hearing the name, Yu Lili finally remembered her. She was a bit surprised. “It turns out to be you, Sister Hao!”
Hao Yu, who took her to the entertainment club back in the days and started her “selling.” At that time, she was young and ignorant, because she lacked money, she followed Hao Yu on the “adventures.” After arriving at the place, she discovered what kind of a place it was. And the role she played at that time was… A prost.i.tute.
At that time, she desperately weakened her presence and desperately wanted to escape. For this reason, Hao Yu helped her and suffered a slap in the face for it. Later, Yu Lili saw Hao Yu being beaten because of her. She blamed herself a lot and continued working.
It was also at that time that she met Ou Ming. At the age of 17, she was kept by Ou Ming like a canary. Since then, Yu Lili had never seen Hao Yu again. Who knows that she would see her in the capital.
Seeing Hao Yu, she suddenly had a sense of intimacy for meeting a acquaintance from her hometown. For more than four years, she had never met a former acquaintance. Except for Ou Ming, none.
“Instant noodles?” Hao Yu sat down beside her and glanced at it, only to find that even the noodle soup was half gone. Putting her bag down, Hao Yu took out a yogurt and asked, “Is it enough? How about I take you to have a nice meal?”
“Ah?” Yu Lili’s face burned a little and she felt embarra.s.sed. “I…”
“I haven’t eaten yet. Let’s go together. There is a Cantonese restaurant nearby, and it’s not bad.”
“Okay, thank you, Sister Hao.”
…
After running around all day, an instant noodle did not satisfy her hunger. After having some real food, she found out that she was starving. Yu Lili had been gobbling, but Hao Yu had barely moved. After the meal, Yu Lili sat in the chair with satisfaction, touched her round belly, looked at Hao Yu, and said, “Thank you, Sister Hao.”
