Gigi Bai didn't seem to expect that I refused so simply and neatly. She was stunned for a moment and looked at me in astonishment, her eyes full of confusion, "Why? Aren't we friends? Say hello to Sister Yin, it's so simple. You’re too busy and you don’t want to help me?”
Facing her barrage of questions, my heart was filled with bitterness. To be honest, her request made me quite embarrassed. Maybe Zhang Yin would give me this face, but I don't want to think of myself as a benefactor just because I saved her once.
I picked up the juice and took a few gulps. Facing that confused pretty face, I said tactfully:
"Zhang Yin and I are really not familiar with each other. She has already repaid the kindness she received from saving her before by buying products from me this time. If I could speak, I would definitely help you, but I really don't have the right to speak."
Seeing her eyes becoming increasingly sad, I felt a little sorry, paused, and then said:
"Otherwise, our company is hiring! Clerk, are you interested? I can definitely talk about this."
Gigi Bai interrupted me impatiently, "Forget it, I don't want to help Zhi speak."
She irritably took out a cigarette and put it in her mouth. Just as she took out the lighter, she accidentally saw the no smoking sign on the table, and she took the cigarette out of her mouth angrily.
She took a deep breath and smiled disdainfully, "Forget it, clerk! You can't make as much as me as a bartender in a month, and I don't know anything! KTV is an opportunity for me, as long as you are willing Helping me is actually just a matter of words! You didn’t even say it before, asking me to change my job! Now that the opportunity is here, you refuse to help me.”
At the end of the sentence, she glanced at me deeply, her eyes deep.
I have to admit that I felt quite embarrassed, but this favor was indeed a bit overwhelming and made me feel very uncomfortable. After a short silence, I still politely said: "I really can't help you with this favor. I hope you can understand. "
The atmosphere suddenly fell into dead silence, and the melodious saxophone music filled the entire restaurant, but it seemed that it had nothing to do with us.
Gong Qi Bai pursed her lips, her eyes were gloomy, and her mood seemed to have plummeted. She looked at me deeply, with a bit of sarcasm in her tone: "If this person were Lin Feifei, would you leave it alone?"
I smiled bitterly. Every question she asked was very difficult for me to answer. I said helplessly: "This assumption cannot be established at all. I can't answer you."
Bai Yongqi curled her thin red lips, "Huh! You will definitely take care of it, but you just don't want to take care of me! In fact, you have always looked down on me from the bottom of your heart, don't think I don't know!"
Her attitude suddenly changed, and she became more and more excited as she spoke. The guests around her all looked at our table.
I stood up helplessly. The two people had different ideas and couldn't communicate at all.
"Whatever you think! But I really can't help you with this, I'm sorry."
Bai Yongqi didn't even raise her eyelids, "Go slowly, I won't send you away."
I didn't expect her to understand me at all, and there was really nothing I could do to help her. After all, my own feelings were the most important.
When I walked out of the restaurant in the night breeze, it was completely dark. Looking at the dark blue night sky, I felt that I was in a better mood than before.
Although the favor that Gigi Bai mentioned made me quite embarrassed, I felt that rather than embarrass myself, it would be better to refuse directly.
My chest felt a little tight, and I suddenly wanted to find someone to chat with. After thinking about it, I called Lin Feifei and asked her if it was over.
The call was connected, and Lin Feifei's voice seemed to be drifting over in the wind, "Hey, Yu Bin, did you guys disperse so quickly?"
Hearing Lin Feifei's voice, I suddenly felt like I was being healed, and smiled: "Yes! Where are you!"
"I don't have one here! How was your chat?"
I smiled dumbly and briefly told her about the bad breakup with Gigi Bai. Lin Feifei should have gone out to answer my call. The surrounding environment on the phone was very quiet, without the noise of a restaurant.
She listened patiently to what I said, and her sweet voice rang, like a silver bell blown by the wind, clear and melodious.
"I think you did the right thing. It's really hard to ask for this favor. Do you want to come over to us for dinner? We haven't left yet!"
I hesitated for a moment, "No, I haven't seen you besties for a long time, so I won't bother you. I'm free during the day tomorrow. If you're okay, I can make braised pork and steamed sea bass for you!"
Lin Feifei sighed and said regretfully: "We can't do it during the day tomorrow! Leave it for a few days and then do it for me! Can you go somewhere with me tomorrow?"
"Where?"
Lin Feifei deliberately let it slip, "You'll know when tomorrow comes. We'll meet at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. See you there or not."
"See you there or see you."
At nine o'clock the next morning, I showed up at Lin Feifei's house on time. She was wearing sportswear today, her long flowing curly hair was tied into a ponytail, and her whole person was filled with youthful vigor.
She handed me a huge shoulder bag and smiled brightly, "Let's go!"
I took it and carried it on my shoulders, and it suddenly felt very heavy.
I was startled, "What is this?"
Lin Feifei winked playfully, "You'll know when we get there."
"Then you have to tell me where to go, right?"
"I'll take you to visit my secret base."
My curiosity was immediately aroused by her. Where exactly I was going, it seemed that I would only know when I arrived.
Lin Feifei was in charge of driving. The car was speeding along the highway, and the urban area was getting farther and farther away from us.
The car drove into the suburbs, drove on the bumpy road for more than ten minutes, and stopped in front of a mottled courtyard.
When I saw the sign on the door, I realized that this was a pet rescue center.
Lin Feifei opened the large iron gate of the small courtyard, and a golden retriever and a pastoral dog rushed over as if they had escaped from the reins.
"Plush, Blue, long time no see! Did you miss me?"
She took out a pair of gloves from her backpack, handed me a pair, put them on herself, and stroked the backs of the two dogs with great tenderness.
"So the secret base you mentioned is the animal center?"
Lin Feifei smiled and said, "That's right! These are all stray dogs and cats that my friends and I took in. I come here to take care of them when I have time. You can also pet them. They are very well-behaved."
I did as she said and gently stroked the golden retriever's back. Sure enough, it showed an expression of enjoyment.
After petting the dog for a while, we continued walking inside. There was a yard inside. I was shocked when I saw the cats in the yard.
"Are there so many cats all stray cats?"
Lin Feifei nodded and took out the cat food from her bag and said, "That's right! This rescue center is opened by a friend of mine. Several other friends and I come here from time to time to feed it."
