In the same capital city, if it were in the Ming Dynasty, at this hour, except for the sneaky Xiaoxiao, no one would be seen on the streets. If someone violates the curfew and is caught by the night patrol soldiers, they will be detained on the spot or executed on the spot. .
But in this world, even though it's past midnight, the streets are still brightly lit, as if it's daytime.
"Boss, here are twenty mutton skewers, ten mutton tendons, six wings, a plate of edamame and peanuts, two casseroles of tofu, and a dozen beers."
Tang Wei ordered the food skillfully and obviously frequented this shop.
"As promised, I'll treat you with this meal as a thank you for punishing evil and promoting good today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Wei smiled.
Soon the boss brought over edamame peanuts and beer.
"You're welcome, if it weren't for you today, I... might be finished."
Thinking of the scene he just experienced, Tang Wei was still frightened.
The moment Fatty Cao tore her clothes off, she was even ready to die together.
"I usually see you as quite shy, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful. You were so strong that you kicked Fatty Cao into the wall with just one kick."
Zhang Chu knew that Tang Wei was talking about the good-for-nothing he was.
How can a grown man be called shy?
"You usually look quite cold."
"cold?"
Tang Wei pointed at himself, his expression slightly exaggerated.
"You mean me?"
With that said, Tang Wei laughed again.
"That's right. I usually don't like to talk much. As for the coldness you mentioned, if I wasn't colder, I wouldn't be bullied to death if I lived in a place like that!"
Ah!
Dare to be affectionate is just an act.
But this is indeed normal. If a woman comes to a big city alone and doesn't pretend to be better, she may be in trouble.
Thinking about it, Zhang Chu reached out to pick up a bottle of beer and twisted his thumb on the bottle cap. It was much easier to use than a screwdriver.
"What kind of skill are you doing?"
Like Huang Bo, Tang Wei was stunned when he saw Zhang Chuliang's move.
"It's a little trick, not worth mentioning."
He handed over the opened beer, and then opened another bottle for himself.
"awesome."
Tang Wei muttered a few words in a low voice, and took a sip from the wine bottle without using a cup. He had just experienced that kind of thing, and he had to calm down his shock.
Zhang Chu smiled when he saw this and drank half the bottle in one gulp.
Although this beer is not as powerful as old wine, once you get used to it, it has a different taste.
"you……"
"you……"
The two were startled for a moment, then laughed again.
"Ladies first, let me speak first!"
Zhang Chu nodded.
Tang Wei pondered for a moment and said: "I think you should be more careful about today's matter. Although Fatty Cao is a bad person, he is also a local snake. Many of the gangsters who live in this area are selling his face. They suffered such a big loss today. , he will definitely find someone to take revenge on you."
Zhang Chu chuckled, pinched an edamame, squeezed it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly. After his rebirth, what satisfied him most was eating. Even the steamed buns and pickles brought back by Huang Bo were better than the dry biscuits before. many.
"Don't take it seriously. I know you know kung fu, but...it's hard for two fists to beat four hands."
Speaking of this, Tang Wei suddenly thought of the scene in her room where Zhang Chu crushed wood with his bare hands.
Maybe……
Two fists may not be invincible against four hands.
"I just want to remind you that this matter is ultimately all because of me. I don't want to cause you any trouble because of this matter."
"Thank you!"
Zhang Chu picked up another bottle of beer, opened the cap, and drank it down.
"What were you going to tell me just now?"
Zhang Chu smiled and said: "Same."
Same?
Tang Wei understood. She was worried that Fatty Cao would find someone to take revenge on Zhang Chu. Zhang Chu also wanted to remind her to be careful not to let Fatty Cao find an opportunity to cause trouble.
"It's better to live somewhere else, that place is not suitable for you."
In the memory of the original person, the people living in that area were basically immigrants. Even if they committed a crime, they would just slap their butts and run away without any concern at all.
"I think so too. I still want to live in a big villa? But look at..."
Tang Wei said, patted his pocket, and then spread his hands, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"I can't afford to rent a slightly better place."
In fact, when Tang Wei failed in the exam before, she had thought about going home, but she was unwilling to give in and always wanted to try again.
But it's not easy to live there.
The prices in Beijing made it too expensive to live in this city, and she didn't want to ask her parents for help, so she had to endure it alone.
Tang Wei is a strong person, and usually he would never say these words to anyone, even his ex-boyfriend whom he had been dating for a few months. But for some reason, after two bottles of beer, all the experiences he had experienced in the past year were thrown away. Got Zhang Chu.
After what happened just now, Tang Wei really needed to find someone to talk to, otherwise, the nerves that had been tense might suddenly break one day.
"I've said so much, what about you?"
"Me? I have nothing to say."
I want to say it, but who dares to believe it?
Officials of hundreds of households in royal robes, hawks and dogs of the court, desperadoes who kill people for money.
If Zhang Chu told him, Tang Wei would not call the police to arrest him, but would only think that he was a lunatic.
Tang Wei thought Zhang Chu didn't want to say it. Since he didn't want to say it, he wouldn't force it.
It was just a chance encounter, who would be like her, stupid enough to show up and rip out your heart and soul.
"You just said you wanted to get into film school?"
Tang Wei raised his head and glanced at Zhang Chu: "Well! What's wrong? Don't you believe I can pass the exam?"
"No, the guy who lives with me also said he wanted to get into film school."
When Tang Wei heard this, the image of a sloppy and ugly man immediately flashed in his mind.
Instantly, he was full of confidence in his own path to school. Even that image still had dreams, let alone her.
"What about you? What do you want to do in the future?"
Tang Wei just asked casually, not expecting Zhang Chu to have any great answer.
"I want to be an actor."
Well?
Tang Wei was stunned when he heard this. It was such a coincidence that they all thought of it together.
"You also want to get into film school?"
Zhang Chu shook his head. He had not been good at studying since he was a child. He only attended a private school for two years in his previous life. I don’t know how many of his canes were discounted.
It was only later that he became an official that he began to study and practice calligraphy. In the officialdom, if he could not speak meaningfully, even if there was a chance for promotion, he would not be able to get it.
What happened to Jin Yiwei?
Don’t we need to read the dossier?
When the officials' residences were searched, they didn't even know a word, so they searched for nothing!
In this life, I remember that I was also a scumbag. After finishing junior high school, I ran away from the orphanage and has been messing around in society.
I have no skills, but I can live to be almost 20 years old without starving to death. I really want to thank this peaceful and prosperous age.
"I don't have that ability, let alone not going to school, and whether I can be an actor doesn't seem to conflict, right?"
Is this going to be a smooth road?
"Right."
For the sake of saving my life, I won't hit you.
When it comes to whether Ye Luzi can survive, Tang Wei still has a say.
After failing in the exam, she also thought about whether she could enter the entertainment industry through another way. So, in the past six months or so, she printed thousands of resumes and met with countless crews.
But……
Seeing that Tang Wei still lives in that shabby place, we know the result.
Someone has also given hints that as long as she is willing to pay a little something, she can be given a chance.
At first, Tang Wei foolishly thought that she wanted to give someone a gift, but later she realized that what they wanted was her.
Snapped!
Tang Wei was banned by many small film crews for his big mouth.
Fortunately, she was young and somewhat pretty. She participated in an interview for a print advertisement and was unexpectedly selected. From then on, she could get one or two small jobs from time to time, and at least food and clothing were not a problem.
But her dream of becoming an actress is still far away.
As time passed, Tang Wei came to understand that if he wanted to enter that circle, he still had to have a stepping stone.
For her, this stepping stone is a diploma from the Chinese Theater Academy or Beijing Film Academy.
A well-known and upright person is always better than a wild person.
Because she understood, she felt stupid and naive when listening to Zhang Chu's words.
"It's been an hour, whether the wings are healed or not. The egg-laying hen can't bear to kill it!"
"Right away, right away!"
Turning back, Tang Wei changed his expression again: "You are right, people still have to have dreams."
hehe!
Zhang Chu smiled. In his previous life, he was able to be promoted to hundreds of households, not only because of his good skills. If he didn't have the ability to observe people's emotions, he wouldn't be able to survive in the officialdom.
For example, Lu Jianxing was just a pawn who had done a lot of dirty work, but in Shangguan's eyes, he was just a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.
How could Zhang Chu not tell whether Tang Wei was telling the truth?
"What are you laughing at?"
Not sure if it was an illusion, but when he met Zhang Chu's gaze, Tang Wei suddenly felt like he had been seen through.
"What about you? What is your dream? To go to film school and become an actor?"
Tang Wei was startled when he was asked, and thought about it carefully: "No, I just think being an actor is suitable for me. My dream is to stay in this city, and being an actor is a way."
"If you find a good family to marry, won't you be able to stay?"
When Tang Wei heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He held the wine bottle, squatted on the table with all his strength, and spoke word by word.
"People have to rely on themselves."
Ambitious.
"I say this to you, I respect you!"
Tang Wei grabbed the wine bottle and bumped it heavily with Zhang Chu, but he was still unhappy.
Why can men think so self-righteously that women can only change their destiny through men?
"You should apologize to me."
Apologize?
The dignified Jin Yiwei Master Zhang apologized to the woman?
Are you thinking too much?
Seeing that Zhang Chu ignored him, Tang Wei also felt bored: "Why do you want to be an actor?"
"Being an actor makes money quickly. I am already poor and want to be rich. Is this a good reason?"
It's really real enough.
If Zhang Chu talked about ideals at this time, Tang Wei would only think it was nonsense.
"Then I wish you make a lot of money one day soon."
At this time, shouldn’t we say, “As long as we live in wealth and honor, don’t forget each other”?
"No matter how bad the wings are, I don't want them anymore."
"I'm coming!"
The boss took a handful of grilled wings and trotted over.
Several people came with the boss, and they were there in a blink of an eye.
"That's why your name is Zhang Chu!"
