Chapter 35 Poor

Thump thump thump…

Slightly urgent footsteps approached from the corridor to the bedroom, and soon appeared outside the door.

On the bed, Ke Wen opened his eyes and moved his head slightly to free himself from the limbs.

However, before he could sit up, someone turned the handle of the bedroom door with a click and pushed it wide open.

No one was seen outside the door.

After a few seconds, the little girl Farah poked her head out of the door frame and appeared.

Looking inside the room, Farah met the eyes of Coven who was glaring at her.

With a smile, she first looked at the two women who were still sleeping, and then raised her hand to call Ke Wen.

Ke Wen angrily made a motion of lifting the quilt, which frightened the little girl so much that she shrank her head back.

This made Ke Wen angry and funny.

He shook his head, then got out of bed, patted himself on his body and changed into pajamas.

After looking back at the two beauties on the bed who were murmuring, Kewen stepped out of the bedroom and closed the door gently.

Raising his hand, Ke Wen poked Farah's forehead with his fingers, while reprimanding in a low voice: "Maomao is stunned, tell me, why did you run upstairs so early in the morning?"

Farah showed a pitiful, flattering smile and pointed downstairs: "Boss, it seems there are customers outside."

"client?"

Ke Wen released his senses and discovered that there was indeed the aura of an ordinary person outside the door on the first floor.

The other party was not contaminated with any yin energy, nor was it contaminated with any aura of hell.

But since he can stop at the door, he must be a person who really needs help.

Therefore, Kewen let the little girl in front of him go.

He patted his chest again and put on formal clothes, then used a magic spell to clean himself up, removing the perfume and feminine smell from his body.

Then, while walking towards the stairs, he teased the little girl Farah and said, "Are you sure you are a client and not a homeless person?"

“Not like a bum.

"

Farah followed up and replied: "That man seems to have been waiting for a long time. I see a lot of dew on his body."

"Then why didn't he follow you in?" Ke Wen said casually.

Farah shook his head: "I didn't know."

Ke Wen glanced back at the little girl and deliberately threatened: "I think you don't want to raise your salary? What about your responsibilities as the front desk? Why don't you ask?"

"Can you blame me?"

The little girl has been familiar with Kewen for a long time and has a thorough understanding of Kewen's temperament.

So she said without fear: "I can't go up and ask everyone who stays at the door, right? If they are really customers, won't they come in on their own?"

Making a face at Ke Wen's back angrily, the little girl Farah puffed out her cheeks and muttered: "If I ask them one by one, wouldn't I expose the office?"

"After all, it's all your fault, boss. Why don't you just use some magic to let me tell who is a customer and who is a passer-by at a glance?"

"Because I'm the boss and I have the final say."

Ke Wen suppressed the little girl with one sentence, so that the little girl could only roll her eyes. …

The two of them came downstairs while laughing.

After looking at the man outside through the floor-to-ceiling window, Kewen raised his hand and pointed to him, urging him to say: "Go and ask."

Farah could only walk to the door, open the door of the building and go outside.

After chatting with the tired-looking man at the door for several minutes, Farah returned to the hall hesitantly.

"What's going on?" Ke Wen, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, asked in confusion: "Why didn't you come in? Aren't you a customer?"

"Yes, but no..."

Farah shook her head in embarrassment, and after hesitating to speak, she said softly: "He encountered difficulties, it is indeed supernatural, but he has no money."

"No money?"

Ke Wen was slightly stunned. After all, this was the first time he encountered such a customer.

"Yes, he and his girlfriend are both unemployed."

Farah said: "The loans of these two people have almost overwhelmed them. He sold blood three times in one day yesterday. He was attracted to our firm when he came to the hospital here at night to sell blood."

Ke Wen looked at the man outside and found that the man was indeed pale and his body was very weak.

"Selling blood...I've been waiting for nearly a whole night..."

Kewen withdrew his gaze and looked at Farah in front of him: "So, what do you think I should do?"

"I...I don't know..."

Farrah wanted to plead, but she knew she had no position.

She is just a worker and has no right to make Kewen suffer losses.

After hearing this, Ke Wen shook his head slightly and said, "Call the people in first, and then prepare a cup of hot cocoa."

"boss?!"

Farah was pleasantly surprised. She almost cheered and said, "Are you ready to help him?!"

"No."

Ke Wen refused coldly: "This is a matter of principle. I can't help him in vain. Letting him come in for a hot drink to warm up is the only help I can provide him."

"But……"

"Do it." Coven interrupted.

Farah hesitated to speak, but in the end she couldn't say anything more and could only turn around and walk towards the door.

Soon Farah brought the man in, and after introducing Coven, she quickly walked to the kitchen to prepare hot drinks.

Ke Wen called the man to sit down.

Then he looked at the awkward man sitting opposite him, and after a moment of silence he said, "Tell me about the situation you encountered?"

The man raised his head cautiously, glanced at Ke Wen quickly, and then lowered his gaze again.

Rubbing his hands, he said nervously: "No, don't bother me sir... I know that it will cost a lot of money to solve the trouble I encountered... I... can't do anything..."

Ke Wen shook his head, leaned back on the sofa, and stretched his arms on it.

His eyes glanced towards the kitchen, and then Kewen continued: "Let's talk about it, just think of it as my reward for providing you with hot drinks."

"I……"

The man looked up again and glanced quickly at Coven.

Averting his gaze again, the man hesitated for a moment and then said: "My girlfriend and I encountered financial fraud. We lost our jobs, lost our house, and have been wandering on the street for more than a month."…

"Then your love is firm." Ke Wen commented casually.

This made the man show a gentle look.

He nodded slightly and said happily: "Yes, we will not despair. We believe that this ordeal will one day be reversed."

At this time Farah came back.

She placed a cup of hot cocoa and a sandwich on the coffee table in front of the man, and gently urged him to enjoy them while they were hot.

The man was really hungry and thirsty. After all, he had been standing outside the door from midnight until now.

"Thanks!"

He nodded heavily to Farah and Kewen: "Thank you for your help, I will repay you!"

His face is sincere, and his promises don't seem to be fake.

The man ate the sandwich in a slightly embarrassed manner, finishing it quickly with the smoothness of the hot cocoa.

Farah sat on the armrest of the sofa next to Coven. She said to the man: "I heard your conversation in the kitchen. You only talked about the normal difficulties, but you didn't talk about the abnormal things you encountered."

Hearing this, the man put down the half-drunk hot cocoa.

He showed a look of regret, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "Mary and I are in good health. During this month of wandering life, we managed to survive by selling blood and testing medicines, but all this changed a week ago. Already..."

"Mary had her period that day and couldn't sell blood, so we had to split up. She went to try the medicine, and I went to a hospital in another district to sell blood."

"However, when I returned, I found that Mary had become confused."

"Huhu?" The little girl Farah was impatient and immediately interjected and asked: "Is there something wrong with the medicine? Has her health been harmed?"

"No...I can't tell..."

The man shook his head helplessly. He rubbed his fists and said: "Mary seemed to be hallucinated. She kept talking nonsense. She described hell and heaven to me, as if she was possessed by the devil. It’s like being pregnant!”

Upon hearing this, Farah immediately turned to look at Coven, expecting that Coven would immediately recognize the truth of the matter.

However, Ke Wen did not give his opinion, but said calmly: "Is there any more? Continue."

"besides……"

The man showed a very sad look. He was silent for a moment, and then continued: "Mary also said that she has super powers. She allows me not to worry about life anymore. She can use her super powers to perform magic tricks and make money for us to recover." My previous life, but..."

The man sighed sadly, then shook his head in pain and said, "But Mary can't even stand still. These days, her health is getting worse and worse, and she is becoming more and more weak..."

"Didn't you send her to the hospital for examination?!" Farah asked immediately.

"Yes!" The man nodded painfully: "After examination, the doctor said it was just ordinary malnutrition, but I know this is wrong! Mary was obviously fine before the drug test!"

"Then you didn't go to the company that asked you to test the medicine..."

Farah couldn't say any more.

Because she realized that to test the medicine, you have to sign a liability exemption contract.

Moreover, given this man's desperate situation, he probably doesn't have any capital to ask the drug testing company to give an explanation.

Little girl Farah felt even more pitiful for the man in front of her.

She couldn't help but look at Ke Wen again, her face pleading and she hesitated to speak.

Ke Wen was stared at helplessly.

He rolled his eyes and asked the man, "How much money do you have now?"

"Less than three hundred dollars left."

The man answered immediately, and his eyes were full of hope.

The same was true for Farah, so much so that she reached out eagerly and grabbed Ke Wen's sleeve, shaking it gently like a kitten.

Ke Wen was so shaken that he was amused. After avoiding his arm, he said to the man opposite: "The money you have is only enough to pay for my three-minute consultation."

"but……"

In the man's expected despair, Ke Wen's tone changed again...
