Chapter 42: The Girl Searching for Her True Destiny's Boyfriend
"Oh, stop pretending to be weak, I really can't take it anymore, you little wretch! You yourself said that I took you in from the garbage dump at the foot of the mountain out of kindness and let you work for me because I pitied you. But tell me, after staying with me for two months, how much have you stolen? I...!" The old lady became so agitated that she couldn't continue speaking, supporting her head with her hand."
The girl just lowered her head, with the index fingers of both hands intertwined, looking somewhat at a loss.
"I really can't take it anymore, the two months' salary you've earned is not even enough to pay for all the beef you've eaten. Don't mention how cruel I am, but you keep making the same mistakes over and over again, and I just can't tolerate it anymore. Here's 500,000 yuan, consider it your salary for these two months, and forget about the rest of the money. Just leave!" The woman looked at the girl's expression, finally calming down her anger a bit, then pulled out an envelope from her pocket and handed it over with a serious face.
The girl looked at the old woman with a dazed expression and then asked: "Then where should I go?"

"Oh! Don't you have any relatives? Can't you go home? At first, I thought you had amnesia, but you said it was your grandmother who mercifully let you down the mountain. That means you have a family, right? Go back home!" The aunt exclaimed in dismay.
But the girl heard this and hastily shook her head, saying: "No way, no way. I finally managed to get out, if I go back like this, I really won't be able to come down the mountain again!"
The aunt rolled her eyes and replied somewhat speechlessly: "You speak as if you're going back to prison, then go find your true prince charming. What true prince charming would be in this poor and remote place? Go to the city or Seoul instead. And don't forget to go home and let your family know you're safe first, and bring your ID card with you, okay? Big cities aren't like our place!"
"But I really don't have an ID card, is Seoul the capital you're talking about?" The girl asked with a simple and naive expression, looking a bit silly.
"Take it, take it, take it!" The aunt finally couldn't stand it anymore, stuffed the envelope into her hand, and then pushed her out of the restaurant like she was driving someone away.
The girl pouted and then turned around with a somewhat resentful look on her face, slowly walking away.
The restaurant owner stood at the door watching the girl slowly leave, and her heart was uncomfortable. After thinking about it, she still shouted: "Dead girl, wait a minute!"
The aunt ran over and stood in front of the girl, asking: "You little scamp, are you really unwilling to go home?"
The girl nodded firmly, and the aunt was somewhat helpless, then asked: "Then where are you going?"
The girl thought for a moment, and her eyes sparkled with an emotion called expectation. Then she opened her mouth and said: "Go to the capital that Big Ma said!"
"Alas!" The old lady sighed, somewhat helplessly. This dead girl was someone she had met two months ago when she went to burn incense at a temple in the mountains on the outskirts of town. At that time, she was rummaging through the trash heap at the foot of the mountain, and the old lady couldn't bear to look at her, so she went over to show some concern for her. As it turned out, this dead girl didn't know anything when asked questions, only spouting nonsense, so the old lady had no choice but to bring her back home temporarily.
However, after washing and dressing the girl, it was discovered that she was actually very pretty, which made her heart feel a little happy. She said she came down from the mountain over there, so she thought her home should be around here, and didn't rush to report to the police. Moreover, the dead girl also said she didn't want to go home, so in the end, the kind-hearted big mom kept her.
Then the nightmare began, in two months' time, at least nearly 100 kilograms of beef were missing from the restaurant. This small business couldn't take it anymore. After discovering that the thief was this girl, she scolded and taught her a lesson, but still had no effect.
In the end, I could only drive her away. But thinking about this naive girl going to Seoul alone, it's really too dangerous.
"Alright, alright, I owe you one. You can stay for now, but in the future, I'll lock up all the meat! Now you won't be able to sneak and eat it!" The aunt said with a soft heart, looking at the girl's innocent face.
"But no!"
"What?" The aunt was somewhat unresponsive and asked strangely.
The girl said with a hint of longing in her eyes: "I want to go to Seoul, to find my true love, and once I do, I'll never have to return to the mountains again!"
"Oh no! You little girl, how old are you? Thinking about men at your age? No way, I'm taking you home!" The aunt exclaimed, then reached out to grab the girl's hand.
However, the girl dodged nimbly and ran past her. She then turned around and ran onto the street, turning back to shout: "Hehe, thanks for taking care of me, Auntie! I'm leaving now, I'll miss you!"
After finishing speaking, the girl excitedly ran forward towards the road ahead.
The old lady was shocked, then rushed out and shouted: "Dead girl, come back quickly, dead girl... Fox tail!!!! Be careful, don't easily trust men from Seoul, don't get cheated. If a man is inexplicably good to you, he must have ulterior motives. Be careful, you dead girl!"
"Got it, auntie! Bye, auntie!" The girl turned around and waved her hand, revealing a bright smile, then happily ran forward.
At this time, a boy of about ten years old ran out of the store and exclaimed excitedly: "She's finally gone!"
"Wow! She's gone, why are you so happy!" The aunt turned her head and looked at her own son, calling out in some surprise.
"Mom, she has a tail and eats raw meat!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're not a nine-tailed fox! Hurry up and go back to studying!"
………
Two more days have passed and tomorrow is the recording time for Infinite Challenge, Jiangbian North Road Ballad Festival.
At this time in the supermarket on the first floor of SBS TV station.
Tang Menglong, however, did not continue to practice, saying "I'm a genius, and geniuses learn quickly". At this time, he was leaning on the outside of the cash register, looking at Ren Jing's sister sitting inside and calling out: "Ren Jing sister, why hasn't anyone contacted me? My rent is so cheap, it's almost as if I'm not paying anything, how come no one has come?"
The cashier, Park In-jeong, sat in front of the computer, rolled her eyes and turned around to say: "Uncle, please be clear-headed, it's precisely because it's so cheap that no one is interested. And you, just looking for a co-renter, but insisting on a female only, plus this low price, who would dare come? Anyone can see that's weird!"
"Uncle, are you really that afraid of ghosts?"
Tang Menglong directly filtered out the subsequent questions and continued to ask slyly: "Ren Jing, why don't you come and accompany Ouba instead?"
"Why don't you just die?" Park In-jeong replied without even bothering to look at him.
Tang Menglong sighed, but at this time the phone rang.
