Chapter 12 : Temporary Shelter
Leaving the school ground, making her way to a part-time job. Lucky her part-time job was near the school. She was humming a tone.
'Master, what are you doing to do if your boss could not help you?' The question from Bo Ya made her stopped.
'Well, I have some money on me right now. I will rent a small room.' She nodded.
After a few minutes, she arrived at her part-time job. A small restaurant. She remembered in her past life, after 2 years leaving this town, this restaurant went down because of the decreasing of their customers.
"Yu Qi, what are you doing here? This restaurant has not opened yet." Yu Qi had been greeted by someone.
A warm smile appeared on her lips. That was the owner of this restaurant also her boss, Madam Sheng Tan Hua. She felt her tears flew when she saw her boss. "Boss." She hugged her boss while she cried. She did not care about what would people think about her behavior.
Meanwhile, Madam Sheng in a little bit lost when suddenly being hugged by Yu Qi. Seeing that this child was crying badly, she patted Yu Qi's back. After a moment, Yu Qi started to stop crying. Madam Sheng invited her into her restaurant. Yu Qi did not know why she started to cry. Maybe because of after reborn, she put a guard around her surrounding, her enemy. When she saw her boss who the one treated her kindly in her past life, her nerves became relaxed.
"Yu Qi, drink this." Madam Sheng gave a mug containing hot chocolate. Yu Qi took a mug and had a slip of it.
"Tell me what's happened to you." Madam Sheng gave a warm look like a mother would gave to her child.
"Boss, can I live at your house for a while?" She begged her boss.
"I have no problem about it but your family would be worried about it."
"No. They not. They would not be worried about me." She sneered.
"You should not say like that. They are your family. Why they are not worried about you?"
"Because I'm not their children. I'm was adopted." Her hand made a fist.
Yu Qi's made Madam Sheng shocked. She never thought Yu Qi was their adopted daughter. The Wang Family move into the town 10 years ago. At that time, they already had their kids. So no one knew about her being adopted daughter.
"How did you knew that?" Madam Sheng asked.
"Last night, I heard them talking about it. She said, 'We have to wait for another 4 years until we can cut off her from our family. It's for our safety.' No wonder, they never gave me the family's love. No wonder, they treat me like a slave." She bites her lips.
Madam Sheng took pity for her. "Then you can stay here. We do have an empty room right now. It's my daughter's room. Right now, she is outside the town."
"Really boss? Thank you, boss. I will look for another room later." Yu Qi felt happy. She told her the truth but a little bit lie.
"Go, rest now. Take your time off today." Madam Sheng ordered.
"Yes boss."
