Three years later
The gate of the women's prison in S city opened, and not long after, a woman slowly walked out from inside.
The woman was ridiculously thin, and on her body was the white dress she wore when she was sent to the women's prison three years ago. Now wearing it on her body, it was just like putting on a m*******a bag.
She walked slowly, one step at a time towards the platform over a hundred meters away. In her hand was a black plastic bag, in the plastic bag was thirty-one dollars and fifty cents, and an ID card.
Walking on the gravel road in the hot summer, the road surface is visible to the naked eye, rolling a layer of white heat waves. Today's temperature is at least thirty-three or fourteen degrees, the woman walks under the sun, and the body is dry and not a drop of sweat.
Pale skin with bruises, even on the face, near the hairline, the corner of the forehead, a scar about three centimeters long, plate across there, very eye-catching.
The bus came, the woman got on the bus, carefully took out a coin from the black plastic bag, and put it into the bus coin box. There were not many people on the bus, the driver took one look at her and then withdrew his disgusted eyes ...... All the people who get on the bus here are prisoners, who have committed crimes, what kind of good people can they be?
The woman as if she did not see the driver's eyes, toward the back seat of the car, she walked to the very back, and picked the rear corner of the car to sit down, trying not to want to attract attention.
The car is driving, and along the way, she looks out the window ...... for three years, the change has been really big.
The corner of her mouth lightly pulled out an arc ...... Yes, three years, what a big change, not only the world outside the prison. There is also her.
The bus drove to a busy section, and she suddenly shook ...... out of prison, where was she going back to?
Out of nowhere, she realized a looming truth - she had nowhere to go.
Opening the black plastic bag, the remaining thirty dollars and fifty cents inside, she carefully counted three times ...... In the future, what to do?
Not far from the curb, the businessman's job posting caught her attention.
"Driver, I want to get off, please open the door." Three years of prison life, rubbed off the arrogance in her body, speaking to people, always bottomed out.
The driver, full of complaints, opened the door, she said thanks and got out of the car.
Walked to the large board of recruitment information in front of the map, and looked for half a moment, the line of sight fell on the "cleaner" three words, and then fell on the words of the "package one meal".
She has no home, no file, no education, and has been in jail,...... I'm afraid she is a cleaner, and no one will want her. But ...... pinched the only remaining thirty dollars and fifty cents in their hand, the woman gritted her teeth and fierce, into the nightclub called "East King International Entertainment Club", a go in, Jane shivered, the central air-conditioning of the cold air so that her whole body is freezing shivering.
......
"Name." The man spoke impatiently.
"Jane." The gruff voice rang out slowly, startling the voluptuous woman who was taking a pen to record her information, nearly dropping the neutral pen in her hand on the table as she asked her in displeasure, "Why do you sound so awful?"
After three years of hellish prison life, Jane was used to being lukewarm, and even though others had already criticized her for having an unpleasant voice with a straight face, she was still lukewarm as if she didn't have a temper, and slowly said, "Smoked by the smoke."
The gorgeous-looking woman was slightly surprised, and her searching eyes fell on Jane's face, "Fire?"
"Uh, fire." Said faintly dropping her eyelids. ...... It was nothing more than a fire that someone had deliberately set on fire.
The voluptuous woman saw that she was unwilling to say more, her nature was uninteresting, and she was no longer interested, only frowning and tutting, "No way, the East Emperor is not an ordinary entertainment club, and the guests that come are not ordinary." And swept up and down Jane a glance, undisguised loathing, obviously very poorly dressed in sacks like Jane, the body of the white dress also do not know how long to wear, white is yellowed.
East Emperor International is not a place where ordinary people can afford to spend money, even an ordinary waitress here must be good-looking and have a hot body. Jane like this, how dare you come to apply for a job.
The colorful woman stood up, waved her hand, and very locally denied Jane: "No, you like this can not, even if it is a waiter can not." Turned around and was about to leave.
"I'm applying for a job as a janitor."
The gruff voice sounded muffled in the small office, successfully stopping the woman in her tracks. The woman lurched at her feet, turned, raised her eyebrows, scanned her up and down again inquisitively, and foxed up, "I've never seen a 20-something willing to bend over backward to suffer as a janitor."
The youngest of their cleaning aunts here was in her forties. This girl's forehead is broken, thin as a bamboo pole, but at most only 20 years old. They had plenty of 20-year-olds here - all female models and princesses! And waitresses, of course.
Never heard of a cleaner in her 20s.
Thinking that this unassuming girl would rush to complain and tell her that the world was hard and life wasn't easy if she said a bunch of s**t like that to herself, she would have kicked her out immediately.
The world is hard, huh, there are so many stories like that in The Eastern Emperor that it could fill up a library if it was published as a story club. Who cares how a stranger lives when they meet for the first time?
I didn't expect the voice that was a bit too rough to be heard to say without a hitch, "If I can come out and sell, I'd be willing to open my legs and say welcome. Before I came here, I looked at myself, I don't have the capital to sell my body, so I'll sell my labor. Do what you can do." ...... She is just a string of numbers "926" criminals only, into that place, and then out, still wanting dignity for what? A self-deprecating smile under Jane's eyes.
The beautiful woman was slightly surprised, once again up and down Jane measured a pass, walked back to the desk, and picked up a pen ready to fill out the form: "Jane? Simple Jane, the fairy tale child?"
"Right."
"Shouldn't be," the woman looked Jane up and down, "would name their children that, your parents should love you."
Jane those eyes, wooden only a pool of stagnant water ...... very love?
Well, very much in love. If she did not have a vicious heart to kill Xia Weiming's words, she would not invite the destruction of Jane's family's words. Well, about, very love it.
"I have no family," Jane said calmly.
The voluptuous woman wrinkled her brow looked at Jane for a second, and no longer asked any more questions, stood up and said, "Alright, make a copy of your ID card."
Standing up from the chair, stepping on fifteen centimeters of hate heights to walk to the door when suddenly stopped, turned to Jane to make a warning, "Jane, do you know why I make an exception to accept you?"
The woman didn't expect Jane to answer and went on to say, "Jane, you have a good saying. If you can sell it, you must sell it, if you can't sell it, just resign yourself to doing what you can.
How many people are double your age, still do not understand this reasoning, drilling bull's-eye, desperately camping, thinking that with the sky to compete is the low-eye is never see their own in the end is which root onion.
You are willing to look at yourself and understand what you can do. A person who understands what she can do, I believe that she also understands what things she cannot do."
Speaking here, the voluptuous woman narrowed her eyes, "Jane, East Emperor is not an ordinary entertainment club."
Jane remained unslowing, "Got it, I have a difficult voice. Won't open my mouth randomly." If you won't open your mouth randomly, you won't talk nonsense.
The voluptuous woman nodded with great satisfaction, usually, she would not mention newcomers, those who dared to mix at East Emperor should be psychologically prepared.
Unexpectedly, she would make an exception for a cleaning lady today.
Although her status as the East Emperor is not low, this confused metropolis, the rich and powerful, and which one she can offend. ...... After entering the East Emperor, you should learn the "rules".
What should be said should not be said, what should be done should not be done.
"That manager ......" Jane is a little difficult to speak: "I do not have a place to live."
The voluptuous woman said, "Call me Sister Meng in the future," then took out her cell phone and made a call, "Xiao Jiang, you come here, I just recruited a cleaner here, you take her to the staff quarters." After saying that, he hung up the phone and threw Jane a sentence:
"Come to work tomorrow."
And left Jane alone.
Jane looked at the entry report in her hand, and her heart breathed a sigh of relief ...... Tonight, there is no need to sleep on the street.
