Warm trees become forests

Wen Mu changed into the waiter's clothes, feeling a bit fresh, Wen Ming sat on the sofa in the office and said, "Are you sure you want to stay with me for two months?"

"En!" Wen Mu lowered his head and stretched the apron around his waist, and said with a smile, "Second Uncle, don't worry, I think I can do well."

"Where do you get the confidence? Have you ever entered the kitchen with such a big life?" Wen Ming lit a cigarette and puffed out the smoke ring, "Don't cry and feel tired when the time comes, I'm not your parents, I just know how to love you."

Wen Mu adjusted the bow tie around his neck, and said boldly: "Don't look down on me, I will impress you in two months, and if you want to keep me, I won't even bother."

"Yo ho, look at the one for you." Wen Ming bit his cigarette and stood up, "Let's go, I'll take you to see it."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, there was no one downstairs. Wen Mu looked left and right behind his second uncle. He just turned eighteen this year and had never been in a bar before. Wen Ming explained: "Your parents really don't want you Come on, this place is chaotic, there are mixed fish and dragons, but you have grown up, you can't always be a hothouse, if you really have any problems, call me in time, don't take the initiative to make trouble, learn to be soft beforehand, it's not that something happened to us It can’t be solved, if you bump into it, you will be the one who hurts.”

Wen Mu nodded obediently.

The second uncle took him to the bar. The manager on duty saw him and hurried over to say hello: "Mr. Wen."

"My nephew, I'll leave it to you to work during the summer vacation." Wen Mingyang introduced with his chin, "Manager Chen."

Wen Mu nodded: "Hello, Manager Chen, my name is Wen Mu."

Manager Chen knew about this a long time ago. The boss’s nephew didn’t dare to be negligent. The young master from a rich family didn’t know the hardships of the people and came to experience life before going to college. Manager Chen said with a smile, “Just call Brother Chen.” Liu Xuetiao bar?"

Wen Ming pulled the ashtray on the bar to extinguish the sparks, his brows raised in amusement: "I'm ambitious."

"I want to wash the dishes."

The corner of Manager Chen's mouth twitched, he didn't understand how children from rich families want to experience the hardships of life, but they can't wash the dishes. I learned how to mix wine with Da Liu, that thing is fancy and foreign, I think Wen Mu likes it.Wen Ming was not often at the bar, so he left first after he settled down. At four or five o'clock in the evening, the bar staff began to work one after another. Manager Chen took Wen Mu back and forth, and arranged for him to be in the locker room. After opening a cupboard, we gathered everyone for a regular meeting and introduced Wen Mu by the way.

The place that stays at night and goes out at night is only lively when it is completely dark. Wen Mu stood at the bar and listened to the deafening music. He helped Da Liu get a small bucket of ice cubes and put them on the table, and asked, "Brother Liu, what's going on here every day?" Is it all this lively?"

"Yes." Da Liu was 28 and nine years old, with neon lights shining on top of his shiny head, his face was big and his waist was thick, and his image was as good as his craftsmanship. Take it easy."

Wen Mu stared at the movement of shaking the wine and admired again and again, when suddenly he heard someone remind him to order: "Margaret from Taiwan 703."

Wen Mu was not proficient in business, so he hurriedly found the wine that Liu had mixed, followed the voice and raised his head, but before he handed it out, he was suddenly stunned.The people outside the bar seemed to have noticed him, their thick black eyes only stayed for a moment, then flashed past, took the wine and put it on the tray, turned and left.

It's Gu Chenglin.

Wen Mu didn't expect to meet him after leaving school.

On the first night of work, he was busy until three o'clock in the morning. Liu told Wen Mu, whose eyelids were battling, that this was normal, just get used to it, and asked, "Do you live in a dormitory?"

Wen Mu said: "I live in the community behind the bar, and I rent a house there."

Da Liu cleaned up the bar: "Then you go back first, there's nothing else to do, Lao Chen told you the time to go to work, right?"

"Well, five o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"Okay, then you go."

Wen Mu helped Liu wash two more cups before walking out of the bar. His clothes were in Wen Ming's office. He ran upstairs to change, then took his overalls to the dressing room, folded them and put them in the closet. It was already 03:30, and it was midsummer at this moment, Wen Mu walked out from the staff passage of the locker room, and found that the dark sky had turned gray.

He stood at the door and didn't leave until someone spoke, and then he reacted with an "ah".

"I said get out of the way."

Wen Mu hurriedly turned his body sideways, and immediately blocked it back, saying hello nervously: "Gu... Gu Chenglin."

Gu Chenglin held a cigarette in his right hand and wore a black plastic glove in his left hand. He didn't put the cigarette in his mouth, but let the ash burn into a piece and fell to the ground.

"You work here." Wen Mu asked nonsense.

Gu Chenglin had sharp eyebrows and a stern face, and he said again: "Get out of the way."

Only then did Wen Mu hide out of the door awkwardly, watching Gu Chenglin walk in through the staff passage.

Did he just come out to throw out the trash... Wen Mu walked to the trash can under the street lamp, saw the big trash bag that Gu Chenglin had just thrown away with plastic gloves on, and tried to pick it up with one hand.

Really heavy, Gu Chenglin's strength is really great, Wen Mu came to a conclusion and kept it in his heart.

The next day, Wen Mu slept until four o'clock in the afternoon. He seldom stayed up late. He was extremely sleepy. He opened his eyes and took the phone to see the time. He was still in a daze. He was refreshed for 5 minutes and got out of bed to take a shower.

Wen Mu was brushing his teeth slowly, while brushing, he suddenly remembered something, speeded up, cleaned up and ran out.

Generally, the service industry has a 10-minute regular meeting before the start of work. Wen Mu stood in the workforce today, looking for a familiar figure.

But no, neither did the regular meeting yesterday, otherwise Wen Mu wouldn't have found out when he was reminded of the order.Are you late?In other words, Gu Chenglin was always late for class, and although his grades were good, he was still a bad student.

Wen Mu's work process is mainly to assist Da Liu with ice cubes and wine, and Da Liu teaches him how to mix and recognize wine when he is not busy.

After waiting all night without seeing Gu Chenglin, Wen Mu suspected that he was dazzled yesterday.

"Be careful when shaking, and the ingredients must be fully fused, so that the taste will be good." Da Liu said and handed the shaker to Wen Mu, "Try it."

Wen Mu took it, and first shook it with one hand. Da Liu said that his strength was not right, and he shook it with both hands. Liu said it was okay before letting go. Wen Mu was about to ask Liu for advice, when he suddenly heard a roar breaking through the loud music and rushing into his ears.

"What the hell are you?!"

Wen Mu and Da Liu looked up at the same time, and there was a waiter standing by the Santai not far away, and the roaring customer was scolding him, then picked up the wine glass, and poured the mixed alcohol with ice cubes directly on the man's face.

Standing far away, Wen Mu could still see clearly that the man was Gu Chenglin whom he had been looking for all night.

He was stunned for a moment, picked up the towel on the bar and was about to run out, but Da Liu grabbed him: "Don't join in the fun."

"I'm not, I'll bring him a towel." Wen Mu explained anxiously.

Big Liu followed Manager Chen's teachings and kept Wen Mu away from disputes. He glanced at Gu Chenglin and said, "Stay away from him, he is a mad dog."

Wen Mu still wanted to talk, but Gu Chenglin didn't even wipe his face, he had already disappeared into the crowd, he looked down at the towel in his hand, mixed with the noisy background sound, he retorted indistinctly: "He's not..."

Da Liu didn't hear it, and continued to teach Wen Mu how to mix wine. In the process, he found that the materials needed were not enough, so he said to Wen Mu: "Go to the wine cellar and help me get two bottles of tequila. Do you know the location of the wine cellar?"

The "wine cellar" is not a real wine cellar, but a storage room located on the basement floor. Manager Chen took Wen Mu to identify the location on the first day. Wen Mu opened the door with the key and found the tequila He took out two bottles from the wine rack, and walked back. The image of Gu Chenglin being scolded by the guests was still in his mind, and he didn't know what happened to Gu Chenglin.

Wen Mu heard movement in the locker room as he passed by, and turned his head, just in time to see someone changing clothes and walking out from yesterday's staff passage.

Wen Mu recognized his back, took the wine and hurried back to Liu, and found an excuse to go to the bathroom to go back to the locker room. He didn't know why he ran out to find Gu Chenglin to comfort him?But at this time, pretending not to see is the greatest comfort to Gu Chenglin.

Wen Mu flinched a little from his unstepped foot, he couldn't make up his mind when he suddenly heard a "click", which was the sound of a lighter.

There is an alley outside the employee passageway, which leads to the north and the south. Many customers will also take this shortcut, and you can take a taxi at the intersection.

It was too late to go back at this time, Gu Chenglin, who was all in black, was leaning against the opposite wall, with a freshly lit cigarette in his mouth, and a bottle of beer in his hand, staring at Wen Mu with eagle-eyed eyes.

Wen Mu didn't know what to say for a while, looked at the street lights and at the ground, and wanted to say that the weather is really nice today, but in the middle of the night there were not even a single star.

"Gu Chenglin, you leave work so early." Wen Mu thought for a few seconds, tried to open the conversation, and walked over.

"Stay there."

Wen Mu stopped immediately: "I..."

Gu Chenglin took a few puffs of cigarettes, threw them on the ground and stepped on the soles of his feet, extinguishing the sparks, and said, "Stay away from me."

The corner of Wen Mu's mouth moved slightly, his eyes lost, and he took two steps back: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you worked here."

Gu Chenglin ignored him, and glanced at the street. It was past eleven o'clock at night, and Wen Mu wanted to go back to the bar to say goodbye to Gu Chenglin, when he heard someone swearing and coming from not far away. On the way home, Gu Chenglin straightened up and greeted the drunk guest.

The guest was staggering drunk, and there was a woman beside him, who was wearing heavy makeup and whistling at Gu Chenglin: "Yo, the handsome guy met again." As she said that, she was about to touch Gu Chenglin's face with her scarlet nails.

"Get out." Gu Chenglin spat out a word.

The drunk person was the one who threw Gu Chenglin's face at the bar. The reason was quite simple. The woman he invited winked at Gu Chenglin. On, even more angry.

This guest is not usually so stubborn, but he is strong and cowardly, and he uttered all kinds of swear words. Gu Chenglin suffered such a thing for nothing. The back of his left hand directly swiped away the woman's long nails, and the wine bottle in his right hand quickly smashed on the top of the guest's head. superior.

With a sound of "哗啦——", the wine bottle burst, and wheat-colored beer mixed with blood flowed down from the top of the guest's head. Short cry of pain, severe abdominal pain, almost vomited bile, the woman screamed for help when she saw that Gu Chenglin had killed him, manager Chen led someone hurriedly around the main entrance, and saw Gu Chenglin beating the drunken guest with his fists .

"Gu Chenglin!" Manager Chen hurried forward and pulled him, scolding with red eyes, "Why the hell are you causing me trouble again!"

Gu Chenglin loosened the customer's collar and threw him to the ground: "I didn't do anything in the store, and I didn't wear overalls."

"You!" Manager Chen hurriedly lowered his head to observe the drunkard whose face was covered with blood, and said to the people who followed, "Hurry to the hospital." Then he scolded Gu Chenglin, "You pay for the medical expenses yourself! I'll see when you Save enough money to go to college."

Manager Chen cleaned up the mess, and suddenly saw Wen Mu on the other side of the staff passage, and thought to himself, this is the boss' nephew.

Manager Chen gritted his teeth: "You can piss me off!" He said, but hurried to Wen Mu's side, "That, Mr. Wen."

Wen Mu hurriedly shook his head: "Brother Chen, you can call me Wen Mu."

"Yes, Wen Mu, I let you see this scene when you just came to work. Gu Chenglin is an employee of our store. I will deduct his salary and make him responsible for beating customers. Can you not let Mr. Wen know... "

"It was the guest who attacked Gu Chenglin first." Wen Mu said.

"what?"

"It was he who poured wine on Gu Chenglin first, not Gu Chenglin's fault."
