Chapter 1103 A Man with a Story
"What do you want, sir?" Heath looked at the man in front of him. Although the other party had mentioned the medicinal diet, the prompt box above his head had not popped up yet, so Heath didn't know what was going on with the other party. This was the first time Heath had seen such a situation, so Heath was a little curious, but Heath himself was not very clear about the specific situation. Heath also noticed that after he asked, the man's eyes flashed with hesitation and struggle, as if he was thinking about something. Heath was a little curious, what was going on? Heath had never seen this type of person before, which made Heath a little confused, but Heath didn't say much, but just waited, he wanted to see what the man was going to want.
"Is it made of arsenic?" the man asked, but his words made Heath's eyes become strange. Heath even suspected that he had heard it wrong. After all, the man's words sounded strange. What did he mean by "Is it made of arsenic?" Are you sure it's arsenic and not something else? Heath looked at the other person and didn't think he was a fool, someone who didn't know that arsenic was highly toxic. However, Heath also had some doubts about whether it was his problem. After all, Heath seemed to have heard of arsenic being used as medicine, but the amount of arsenic was difficult to grasp, so basically even if it was really used as medicine, it would take a very professional doctor to decide the amount.
Although Heath knew how to make medicinal food, he really didn't know how to make it with arsenic, so Heath could only shake his head to indicate that he didn't have any. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the man sighed and left, leaving Heath stunned. So what was going on? Heath looked confused. He couldn't understand what was going on . Didn't he come to eat? Didn't he want to order medicinal food? Why did it suddenly become like this?
As soon as the man opened the door, another guest came in. It was a girl. After seeing the man, a strange emotion flashed in her eyes. Then she carefully stepped aside and waited for the man to leave. Then she walked in and looked around Heath's restaurant curiously. Heath was even more curious about what happened to the man just now. His strong curiosity almost made Heath unable to hold back and want to ask. You know, Heath is not a person who particularly likes to ask questions, but about the man just now, Heath really couldn't help but want to ask the other party. After all, the other party's emotions seemed to be a little wrong, so Heath really wanted to know the other party's story.
However, Heath still held back and just looked at the girl in front of him and asked her what she wanted to eat.
"Boss, can I trouble you to ask what the man just ordered?" But what Heath didn't expect was that the other party actually came to ask him, and looking at the other party's curious eyes, Heath knew that this girl should also be a curious type, but Heath didn't say anything, just said that the other party ordered medicinal food, but still didn't want it, and left directly. As for what specifically was ordered, Heath naturally didn't say. If it was a Miss Junsha, then Heath would answer immediately, but the other party was just an ordinary girl, not Miss Junsha, so Heath naturally wouldn't say much, after all, arsenic is really a bit sensitive.
"Ah, it's not easy for Brother Li either." The girl sighed, and then ordered a draft beer and a fried chicken. Heath nodded after hearing this. The draft beer could be poured directly, and the fried chicken was also very convenient and was ready in a short while. Heath even went up to serve the dishes himself, just to see if the other party could say anything. Now he didn't know anything else except that the other party's surname was Li.
"Boss, I'm telling you, if Brother Leon comes again, you must not sell him anything poisonous." The girl said seriously. Heath nodded after hearing it, but he didn't expect that the girl would say it so proactively. Now Heath also knew the other party's name, Leon, and it seemed that the girl also knew that the other party might buy poisonous things, but Heath didn't know the specific reasons and why.
However, the other party did not intend to say more, but just drank and ate fried chicken. Heath had no choice but to give up. However, Heath was also a little curious in his heart. So what exactly happened to the man just now?
At this time, Leon, who was being missed by Heath, had also returned to the community where he lived. However, as soon as he returned, Leon's expression became more complicated. He walked quickly with his head down, as if he did not dare to look at the passers-by next to him. As he walked, he heard loud cries of "ouch, ouch", and from time to time mixed with various dirty words, which were unbearable to the ears, and occasionally there was even a word like "you ungrateful bastard, you were raised in vain". Hearing such words, Leon's expression became ugly, he walked quickly, and then disappeared in the dim corridor.
The four middle-aged women who were playing mahjong nearby looked at Leon's back and sighed together.
"Xiao Li has had a hard time, having to deal with someone like this..." Aunt A sighed, then picked up a card.
“Isn’t it? The family environment was not good to begin with, but it is better now. The medicine costs more than 900 yuan a month.” Aunt B also shook her head.
“Yes, Xiaoli works so hard every day and only earns 4,500 yuan. He still has to pay rent, water and electricity bills, and living expenses. I heard that the property management fee has not been paid for several years. Only the manager of the property management office knows about their situation, so he has never gone to urge them. Otherwise, if it were any other family, he would have gone to urge them countless times.” Aunt C touched the gold ring on her hand and shook her head. They were all old neighbors who had watched Xiaoli grow up. Now seeing him like this, these old neighbors felt bad.
"Oh, if it were me, I would endure it every day. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I would just die to avoid adding burden to my children." Aunt D listened to the shrill yelling and pressed the hearing aid on her ear with some annoyance.
"Don't talk nonsense. You are not the one who has this disease." Aunt C rolled her eyes. She knew more and had asked her son, a medical student. Then she realized how torturous this disease was. But in the final analysis, it was caused by lack of money, so she couldn't blame anyone.
