The life of Lao Liu since 1944

After hearing this, Hou Jie stood up with an unhappy face. He turned his head and stared coldly at the lobby manager. The lobby manager felt the coldness and was shocked, but he was an experienced and knowledgeable veteran in the workplace after all, and he knew that it was not appropriate to confront Hou Jie head-on at this time.

So, he gestured to Mu Chunhua to sit down in a tone that tried not to escalate the conflict, and at the same time secretly winked at Hou Jie, hoping that he could give him face and temporarily calm this potential dispute.

Although Hou Jie was dissatisfied, he finally chose to temporarily suppress his inner emotional fluctuations and did not pursue the matter further, under the mediation of the lobby manager and considering that Mu Chunhua worked here and did not want to embarrass Mu Chunhua.

The lobby manager guessed that there must be some kind of relationship or familiarity between the two people. Therefore, although he knew it well, he did not care too much, just hoping that the two sides could coexist peacefully, at least without affecting the normal business of the restaurant and causing more trouble, everything could be OK.

The guests who were dining around also noticed the situation here. Finally, one of them recognized Hou Jie at a glance and muttered to himself: "Isn't this the little evil star? A few days ago, he lost his temper in a conflict and almost beat someone to death, which made many people respect him. In addition, the person who had a conflict with him suddenly disappeared mysteriously and his whereabouts are still unknown.

In view of this situation, although other diners felt sympathy and concern, they could only dare not speak out, for fear that once they intervened in the matter, not only would they fail to solve the problem, but they would also bring themselves unnecessary trouble.

After experiencing these two emergencies, these foreigners have finally realized the reality. Don't offend people you can't afford to offend, otherwise no one will cover up for them, unless you have a strong background.

But the people who eat here have no background, they are just poor people who use the country's skin to make some money. Chinese with backgrounds don't take them seriously at all. If you don't keep a low profile, you are a fool, and you won't even know how you died.

Mu Chunhua sat down, held her chin with both hands, and watched Hou Jie eat slowly. She always felt that this guy was hiding something from her.

Thinking about it, something moved his heart. Counting the days, today is the day this guy promised to give me the medicine. His eyes lit up instantly, and he looked at Hou Jie with hope, hoping to hear what he wanted to hear.

Mu Chunhua did not ask immediately, but endured and waited for Hou Jie to finish his meal.

She didn't notice anything at first, but now seeing how slowly he was eating, she raised her eyebrows in anxiety and wished she could eat for him.

There is no way. Mu Chunhua has been struggling to hold on until now. Hope is right in front of her, so she can't help but feel a little impatient.

Hou Jie also noticed her anxiety and knew that she had already guessed it, so he didn't tease her and just nodded to her with a smile.

Mu Chunhua asked unsurely, "Really? Did you buy the medicine?"

Hou Jie replied affirmatively, "Yes, don't worry! Leave it to me, don't worry, I can get it if I say I can."

After Hou Jie finished speaking, he suggested, "Chunhua, think about it, why don't you stop working here? I can support you."

"If you want to find a job, I'll arrange a job for you. Not only do you have to be in the spotlight here, but these foreigners are also worthless. I'm a little worried about you being here."

After Mu Chunhua knew that the medicine issue was settled, she heard Hou Jie's proposal. Without even thinking about it, she nodded in agreement. She originally came here to work to treat her father's illness. Since it was no longer needed, there was nothing to miss.

Mu Chunhua was thinking in her mind, "As for the money for the medicine, she has no intention of paying it back. I am already his, if he dares to ask me for it, I will scratch you to death."

She looked at Hou Jie quietly a few times, and her eyes flashed with the impression that Hou Jie was asking her for money so that she could deal with him.

Mu Chunhua came to the lobby manager and told him she was quitting. The lobby manager tried to persuade her to stay, but seeing that she was unmoved, he went to the back to settle her wages. She could manipulate other people, but she didn't dare to do anything naughty with Mu Chunhua. All the wages were settled, and even rounded up to an even number.

After a while, the lobby manager handed the wages to Mu Chunhua, who took the money and thanked him. After saying goodbye to some young ladies, she hurriedly took Hou Jie and left the Four Countries Hotel.

Soon after leaving the Shiguo Hotel, Mu Chunhua asked him, "Chunsheng, where's the medicine?"

Hou Jie said helplessly, "Wait a moment, I'll go get it."

Hou Jie took the opportunity of going to the toilet to take the medicine out of the space and came back to hand it to Mu Chunhua.

Mu Chunhua took it, looked at the box of medicine carefully with joy, and repeatedly touched and looked at it.

Then she hurried him to the hospital, and Hou Jie had no choice but to follow her. Along the way, seeing her holding the box tightly, as if it were a treasure, he knew how important it was to her.

When they arrived at the hospital, Mu Chunhua happily handed the medicine to the attending doctor, and the two talked for a while.

Finally, Mu Chunhua walked out of the doctor's office with a smile on her face. She sat down on a bench in the corridor, her body slumped, looking weak. But looking at her silly smile, the matter was finally settled.

"I finally got the medicine. Thank you, Chunsheng."

Hou Jie said politely, "It's what I should do."

Hou Jie did not move around, but stayed with her silently. After he calmed down, Mu Chunhua took the lead and went into Mr. Mu's ward.

This was Hou Jie's first time meeting old man Mu, and the prospective son-in-law was a little nervous when meeting his father-in-law. Women usually look like their fathers, and when the father and daughter stood together, they looked like real father and daughter. But Mu Chunhua's face was softer and more charming, and her skin was as white as cream.

Old Man Mu's face was pale and his body was thin. It seemed that he was suffering from this disease. He deserved it. It was his fault. It was not a bad thing to suffer a little.

There is a sword hanging over your head when it comes to lust, and this has nothing to do with me, Hou Jie.

After the father and daughter exchanged greetings for a while, Old Man Mu finally turned his attention to Hou Jie.

Hou Jie next to me was almost embarrassed, you two finally saw me. You didn't see such a big living person!

Seeing his father-in-law, Old Man Mu, looking towards him, Hou Jie suddenly felt an invisible pressure. He immediately adjusted his expression and greeted him respectfully and cordially: "Father-in-law."

He just uttered these words, but was quickly interrupted by Mu Chunhua beside him. She shyly reached out her hand and gently covered Hou Jie's mouth. At the same time, her soft voice of reproach rang in Hou Jie's ear: "Hou Jie, can you please stop talking about this? I'm not ready yet! If you do this again, be careful of me..."

As Mu Chunhua spoke, she gently bit the back of Hou Jie's hand to express her dissatisfaction and warning.

Hou Jie was a little depressed by Mu Chunhua's sudden action. He closed his mouth helplessly, with an aggrieved expression on his face, and his eyes unconsciously turned to Mu Chunhua.

However, Mu Chunhua did not respond to his gaze. She turned her head and said to Old Man Mu with a smile, "Dad, he just said something wrong. Don't listen to his nonsense. The most important thing for you now is to get well. Don't worry, I will come to take you home in a few days."

After saying this, Mu Chunhua did not give Hou Jie any chance to refute and pulled him out of the ward, leaving Old Man Mu in the ward to digest everything that had just happened.
