Chapter 16: The burden of the House of time

Chapter 16: The Burden of the Shi Family.

Shi Caining was speechless.

The cost of treating her wounds was not high, but Shi Caining's wallet had lost a piece of the red sun...

Holding the thin wallet, Shi Caining sighed softly.

Sometimes, she would secretly write novels on some websites, hoping that the manuscript fees would save her. However, she did not expect that all the novels she wrote would be wiped out. Other than a little poor attendance, there was not a single cent left. She could not even earn the basic food fees...

When Shi Caining left the VIP room, Gu Kuangen's chauffeur was still waiting outside. When he saw her, he very politely sent her home.

When Mo Xiao brought Shi Qianyu back, her face darkened when she saw that she was busy cooking at home.

"Sis, you got off work so quickly? Ah, how did you hurt your forehead?" Shi Qianyu sat on the chair and asked her in confusion.

Shi Caining pursed her lips and said softly, "I accidentally bumped it..."

Mo Xiao's expression was even more gloomy. She sneered. "You've been fired again? It's the Qiao family again, isn't it? Look at you. You can't even find an official job. Now that your younger sister needs to recuperate, you've even become a burden to the Shi family..."

"Alright, stop spouting nonsense. Caining will definitely find a good job in the future."

Before Mo Xiao could finish her sentence, Shi Tianming interrupted her.

Shi Caining's heart was filled with bitterness. "I'll find a better job..."

"Ha, a better job? The Qiao family caused a ruckus, and the chickens flew and the eggs were beaten again!" Mo Xiao said in a weird tone, "I really regret not strangling you to death. You're really a troublemaker!"

"Mom, what are you saying!" Shi Qianyu could not take it anymore and hurriedly interrupted the angry Mo Xiao.

Shi Caining silently pursed her lips. She turned around and returned to the kitchen to get busy. However, as she stood by the vegetable wash basin, her face was filled with loneliness.

The setting sun set in the west. The orange glow of the setting sun landed on the smelly and narrow alley outside. The garbage pond was not far away and gave off a despairing smell.

Shi Caining raised her head and saw this scene. Her eyes suddenly reddened. How long would this life continue?

If she died, the Qiao family would no longer take revenge on her foster father and sister. How great would that be...

The next morning, Shi Caining used her worn notebook to frantically send out resumes to various companies.

However, after waiting for two days, there was no reply in the mailbox.

On the third day, Shi Caining was about to go out to look for a job when a new email suddenly jumped into her field of vision.

"Miss Shi, hello. My old madam needs a cook who is good at cooking with Chinese medicine. I've heard of your cooking. If you don't mind, please come to No. 09 in Seaside Villa District to apply for the job. Thank you."

The address and phone number were left at the bottom of the email. Shi Caining made a call with a little hope. The other party was an old lady with a gentle voice. The two of them had a very pleasant conversation. The old lady's surname was Jiang. She asked Shi Caining to go over immediately for an interview.

After Shi Caining hung up, she was a little hesitant. There had been too many girls abducted in recent years. Would she be unsafe?

But Seaside Villa... Shi Caining's heart stirred. She seemed to have heard of this villa district before.

After searching online, Shi Caining felt relieved. Seaside Villa District was right beside the sea in S City. That was a golden area and the people who stayed there were all either rich or noble. It was impossible for people with status to do anything too outrageous. At least, they wouldn't be so hungry that they would make a move on an unfamiliar girl, right?
