, wonderful and free of pop-ups! "My name is Tang Zhen. I am twenty-three years old. I usually like to read books and play games. As for my profession... there are many. I am considered a freelancer..."
In the cold drink restaurant on the corner of the street in the afternoon, the short-haired young man looked at the fashionable girl in front of him and introduced himself with a calm expression, but there was a trace of undetectable sadness in his eyes.
The fashionable girl across the dining table is tall, with slender legs, fashionable clothes, and decent appearance.
But at this time, she had an impatient expression on her face. Occasionally, she looked at the young man with a hint of disdain and irritability in her eyes. At the same time, she mocked what the young man had said word by word in her heart: "What kind of freelancer?" , it’s just self-whitewashing, and to put it bluntly, they are unemployed. Just like the people in the slaughterhouse claiming to work in the "Biological Decomposition Institute", and the local gangsters claiming to be "green forest heroes", how hypocritical..."
Especially the young man opposite who was introduced to a blind date, dressed in cheap street stall goods, with a total value of only five hundred yuan...
Haha, even a pair of my own leather shoes costs more than this.
But this guy has always had an indifferent expression on his face since meeting him, and he has a lukewarm attitude towards himself.
In front of this person, the figure and appearance that I had always been proud of were not taken seriously.
Why should he?
If you were a rich man, I would tolerate it. If you were a powerful official, I would admit it. But you are just a poor kid. Why are you pretending?
After the two sides were silent for a few minutes, the fashionable girl couldn't help but said in a sarcastic tone: "Let's talk about something practical. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't stand Fang Yujia's nagging, and I hate glib guys, Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here regardless of what I said today.”
"Tang Zhen, right? I know that your family conditions are average, and your only advantage is that you are sincere, but do you know that in today's society, people with your personality can no longer tolerate you!"
"You can date me if you want, but I still have to remind you that if you want to marry me, at least you have to buy me a building of 150 square meters and a car worth more than 150,000 yuan. I’ll open a beauty salon, otherwise there’s no need to talk!”
After the fashionable girl finished stating her conditions, she took out her mobile phone as if no one else was watching and played with it while waiting for the other party to give up.
The corner of Tang Zhen's mouth twitched slightly, and the other party's attitude made a trace of anger well up in his heart.
He knew exactly what the girl opposite was. To put it mildly, she was a well-known bus driver. Putting aside her dislike and ridicule of her being picky, Tang Zhen didn't take it too seriously.
What annoyed him was that the person who arranged the blind date clearly knew his personality, but he chose to introduce such a woman to him.
But I just came here, does that count as a shame?
This feeling of being fooled and betrayed by the one he loved made his heart hurt slightly. He smiled bitterly to himself. Tang Zhen suppressed the anger in his heart, turned to look at the other party and smiled lightly: "I don't have the things you mentioned now, but I promise that I will definitely be able to do it in the future, I am confident, do you believe it?"
The fashionable girl hummed softly, moving her lips but no sound came out, but judging from the shape of her mouth, it should be "Keep blowing!"
Seeing this, Tang Zhen continued to say indifferently: "But even if I have all this, it has nothing to do with you, because I don't intend to have any contact with you at all. By the way, I would like to remind you, don't think that you are arrogant just because you are beautiful. , all those 'rabbits' that cost three hundred at a time in the back streets are no worse in appearance than you!"
The fashionable girl was furious when she heard this. She stood up, picked up the drink on the table and threw it at Tang Zhen.
Regardless of his previous arrogance, he angrily stretched out his finger and cursed: "You fucking bastard, shameless poor man, you're just pretending to be your mother..."
After cursing for more than a dozen words, the woman turned around and left quickly with a look of disgust.
After shaking off the water stains on his clothes, Tang Zhen glanced at the fashionable girl who left angrily, and chuckled to himself: "You can be a bastard, that's all I am anyway..."
"Fang Yujia, Fang Yujia, why are you doing this? If you don't want to accept it, you don't have to use this method..."
Not long after, a pleasant cell phone ringtone rang, and Tang Zhen stood up and walked out of the cold drink shop amid the whispers of several couples sitting next to him.
Slowly pressed the answer button, and then a sweet and crisp voice came: "Tang Zhen, what are you doing? Xiaofei just called me and kept complaining about me. You are also serious. If I had known I would not do this. Introducing someone..."
Listening to Fang Yujia's complaints, Tang Zhen felt as if his throat was blocked by something, and he lowered his head while hesitating to speak.
He still couldn't understand what he was thinking. They were two girls who "disliked the poor and loved the rich". Why could he not help but refute and ridicule Qi Feifei, but always had a glimmer of hope for Fang Yujia?
It seems that I really like this girl, so I selectively ignore her criteria for choosing a mate. After all, the other party also plans to find a rich husband.
I introduced myself to a girl who had the same idea, just to make myself understand the situation.
This is Fang Yujia's character. If she doesn't like you, she will find a way to make you retreat, but she will never take the initiative to speak.
Tang Zhen couldn't help but wonder, if Fang Yujia knew that he had given up his pursuit of her, would he feel relieved, humming his favorite Liang Jingru song excitedly, and dragging his best friends to go shopping together?
…
In a house of more than thirty square meters in Xicheng District, Dongdu City, the mottled walls and peeling paint on the doors and windows reveal a hint of decay.
At this time, at the door of the house, there were more than a dozen tall and thick men gathered together, and unpleasant curses spewed out from their mouths from time to time.
"Damn it, Tang Laowu's grandson owes me half a million yuan. It would be nice for him to just walk away, but when will the money be repaid!"
"That's right, we are all neighbors, and you are also a sensible child... Everyone is living with this little money. Well, this principle of repaying debts from the father to the son does not require uncle to talk nonsense, right?"
"Hey, Tang Zhen... To be honest, we don't want to push so hard, but we are all from the same family, and it's not easy to make some money, right?"
"Fuck, stop talking nonsense. If you don't pay me today, your house will be ransacked!"
One of the grumpy black-faced men roared, but after taking a look at the bare-walled house, he paused and cursed unhappily: "Damn, I think your place will be hungry even if the mice come. Die. Your dad was able to run away quickly, but he severely deceived these young and old men. He is so damn wicked!"
Everyone was deeply touched when they heard this, and they couldn't help but nodded at the same time, with regrets on their faces.
Among these aggressive debt collectors stood a handsome young man, Tang Zhen, who had just returned from a "blind date." At this moment, he was grimacing and smiling helplessly at everyone.
"Uncles, uncles and elders, please listen to me, okay?"
After Tang Zhen finished speaking, he glanced at everyone's reaction. Seeing that no one objected, he continued: "I also know your difficulties. Do you think this is okay? I will pay back five thousand a month. As for who should pay back first?" Please discuss it among yourselves! But I’m going to be the first to say something ugly. If I’m really pushed into a hurry, I’ll just walk away and we’ll be in bad luck then!”
Tang Zhen finished speaking with a determined look on his face and stared at these people coldly.
Anyway, I have come up with a solution. You can decide for yourself whether it works or not. You must know that rabbits bite people when they are anxious. If you have the ability, go to my bastard father!
Tang Zhen's solution obviously did not win the approval of everyone. Immediately some people began to yell with pale faces, rolling up their arms and sleeves as if to fight, their eyes widening.
"What are you going to do? Do you want to imitate your shameless father?"
"Damn you brat, I want to scare your uncle, right?"
"Fuck, I don't want this money anymore. I'll use it to buy you a leg and scold the guy next door!"
…
After a whole morning of noisy work, Tang Zhen finally sent away these debt collectors.
In fact, there is nothing these debt collectors can do. Now it is the uncle who owes money. If they scare people away, they will lose everything.
With someone like Tang Zhen around, it would be possible to get back thousands of dollars at least every few months.
Just as Tang Zhen said, if he is really pushed to the limit and breaks the pot in the end, then these people will really lose everything.
After everyone left, Tang Zhen smiled bitterly and cleaned up the cigarette butts and garbage on the floor. Then he looked at the empty room and sighed, with a trace of sadness on his young face.
Tang Zhen was an orphan and was adopted when he was very young. The family gave birth to a daughter the year after they adopted him. Tang Zhen also had a sister who loved to pester him since childhood.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The adoptive mother suddenly passed away, and the adoptive father began to spend all day, drink and stay up all night, ignoring the two brothers and sisters. The two brothers and sisters grew up hungry and lived a very poor life.
He is able to live in embarrassment today thanks to his adoptive father. After the old guy made a huge sum of money by cheating here and there a year ago, he took the money and ran away with a married woman. In a foreign country, I have lived a happy life.
The creditors who came after hearing the news naturally focused on Tang Zhen. They came to his house from time to time for gatherings and cursed, and each time they had to spend a long time before leaving.
To be honest, Tang Zhen sometimes really wanted to leave, but every time he would think of his sister who had finished her studies, he endured the fatigue and insults again and again, and stayed in the city. Living hard in the cracks.
Tang Zhen is a very persevering person. If he believes that he loves someone, he must stick to it till the end.
But it turned out that he was not Fang Yujianjia's cup of tea.
That's why he smiled bitterly and agreed to Fang Yujia's request to introduce him to his girlfriend, bringing an end to his relationship that had been fruitless for five years.
Love also requires material foundation. Now that he can't even take care of himself, how can he dare to ask for love?
Tang Zhen sighed, took out his cell phone from his pocket and checked the time.
After being delayed for so long by these debt collectors, and feeling empty in my heart, it seems that I can't go out today.
After Tang Zhen threw the phone behind the bed, he squatted down and took out a nylon woven bag stuffed under the bed.
After opening the bag, Tang Zhen took out a transparent crystal the size of an egg and played with it.
His bastard adoptive father bought this thing from a tomb robber. According to the seller, it was dug out of an ancient tomb of unknown age.
Three things were dug out at that time, which seemed to be a dagger and a piece of pottery, and the other thing was the thing in Tang Zhen's hand.
Tang Zhen's adoptive father concluded that this crystal-like object was a treasure, so he bought it for 10,000 yuan.
As a result, I found someone to identify it, and it turned out to be nothing.
After Tang Zhen's adoptive father was depressed for a few days, he threw the "glass ball" under the bed, and later put it away while Tang Zhen was cleaning.
After playing with the 'glass ball' in his hand for a few times, Tang Zhen put it and his phone on the table, and then stood up to prepare lunch.
Holding a bowl of instant noodles that cost two yuan a bag in his right hand and half a bag of pickled mustard in his left hand, Tang Zhen walked slowly to the bedside, opened a book and started reading.
When he saw an exciting battle description, in which the protagonist relied on his superb marksmanship and fighting skills to kill enemies one after another, Tang Zhen excitedly slapped the table next to him, but he didn't want to hit the glass ball.
The glass ball shattered, and then a sharp pain that penetrated the bone marrow suddenly came. Tang Zhen couldn't help but scream strangely. It turned out that there was a big cut on his palm, and blood kept pouring out.
"What bad luck!"
After Tang Zhen cursed angrily, he quickly poured water to clean the wound.
But he didn't know that after he left, a faint light flew out of the broken bead, wrapping the phone around, lasting for a few seconds and then disappearing.
