Qianhai City, Summer Cafe.
A woman who no longer looked young and used heavy foundation to cover her wrinkles spoke eloquently to Xiao Yan.
"Since we are all here to get married, let me just tell you my conditions."
"I am a person who lives life, so I don't want any bride price, and the wedding can be simple."
"It's just that we can't rent a house after we get married, so I want to buy a house in the city. I have saved hundreds of thousands of myself, and with your savings, I should be able to make a down payment, but the name of the tenant should be written in the name of my son Qiuqiu. name."
"Anyway, the house will be left to him in the future. Just use it in his name to save trouble in the future."
"I won't have any more children after I get married, but don't worry, Qiuqiu is so good, and I will definitely support you in your old age in the future."
"You will have to hand in your salary card later, and I will give you pocket money every month."
"My brother doesn't have a job yet. You, as my brother-in-law, will definitely help him. I'll lend him a few hundred thousand to start a small business. Don't worry, he will pay you back as soon as he makes money in the future."
"Also, my parents are not in good health, and my younger brother will definitely be busy with his career in the future, so I plan to bring them over to live together after we get married. Do you have any objections?"
Xiao Yan looked at the blind date opposite him in astonishment, feeling a bit unreal.
He picked up his phone, opened the front camera, and saw himself on the screen.
Thirty-two years have left the weather on my face, but my facial features are still straight, and my short hair is clean and fresh... Doesn't he look like a living Bodhisattva?
"If you agree, we can go get the certificate at any time." The blind date, who was three years older than him, took his silence as acquiescence.
"Sister." Xiao Yan put down his mobile phone and said sincerely: "When you go out, turn right and get off the subway, take Line 3 to the terminal. Then change to bus No. 17 and take eight stops. After getting off, go back. There There is a Chenghuang Temple, if you want to make a wish, go there, it will be very effective."
"What do you mean?" The other party was stunned for a while before he reacted. He suddenly became furious, pointed at his nose and cursed: "What do you think you are! I am over thirty and have no car, no car, no house, no house, this lady." I make conditions for you because I think highly of you!"
"Thank you." Xiao Yan didn't bother to say another word to her, stood up, and walked out of the coffee shop under the angry eyes of the other party.
As the crowd on the street walked some distance away, Xiao Yan found a chair on the roadside and sat down, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then smiled to himself.
It is said that the person you date is your own mirror. Which kind of person you are introduced to will prove your level in the minds of others.
But, is it really such a failure?
The thirty-five-year-old little fairy with a petty girlfriend only came to him to make a wish.
Xiao Yan began to examine his half life...
He was admitted to college at the age of eighteen. Although he was just an ordinary student, he once became the pride of his family.
My first job after graduation was quite glamorous, earning over 10,000 yuan a month easily.
Then with the support of his parents, he bought a car and a house in this city, and lived a happy life for a few years.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after, the company went bankrupt, and when I started my own business, I encountered a sluggish market. After struggling for a few years, I ended up buying all the houses and cars.
Then, work, unemployment, work, unemployment... Each year is not as good as the other.
And his marriage has become the biggest worry for his parents. Xiao Yan doesn't care about it, but in a small city like his hometown, he is still unmarried at his age, which is enough for his parents to be criticized by others.
I felt sorry for them when I lost all their savings before. If I let them bear this kind of pressure again, Xiao Yan really couldn't stand his test.
He can be generous to anyone, but he can't do that to his parents.
So he actively joined the blind date army with a self-defeating mentality.
Require? Just be a woman!
But the little fairies nowadays obviously don't have such low standards as him, and he is overwhelmed by all kinds of weird things.
Please!
If I had the conditions you proposed, would I still need to go on a blind date?
And today's person has refreshed his understanding of little fairies. How is this a blind date? This is a mule for their family, one that doesn’t eat grass!
Xiao Yan exhaled the smoke in his lungs depressedly and flicked the cigarette butt onto the road...
The cigarette butt drew an arc in the air and landed accurately on the schoolbag of a little girl who was crossing the road.
"Holy shit!" Xiao Yan immediately regretted it and rushed over, but be careful not to set his schoolbag on fire.
Then he heard a sharp brake sound and flew out.
In the air, Xiao Yan saw the driver's frightened face behind the windshield.
"I'm sorry, brother." This was his first thought.
"Oh, zebra crossing, you deserve it..."
…
"Xiao Yan! Xiao Yan!"
The call in his ear became clearer from a distance. Xiao Yan turned his head and saw a very beautiful and young girl.
She has long black hair draped over her shoulders like a waterfall, delicate and pretty facial features, and shiny white skin. She is wearing a white dress, revealing her slender and round calves.
It's simply white moonlight.
But why does it look so familiar?
Liu Mo? So young? He looks about seventeen or eighteen years old.
"Did you hear what I said?" Liu Mo said reservedly and proudly: "I can give you a chance to pursue me, but it doesn't mean that I am your girlfriend. What happens in the future depends on you. Performance."
Xiao Yan blinked his eyes, his expression dull, was I hallucinating after being hit by a car?
He looked around suspiciously and found more things that were wrong.
Why are the cars on the road so retro? The clothes worn by people on the street are also of styles from many years ago.
Then, he saw the display screen at the entrance of the bank across the road, which showed the system time.
2022.08.03.
Xiao Yan came up with a ridiculous idea...
He grabbed one of Liu Mo's hands, pinched the tender flesh on her forearm and twisted it hard.
"Ah!" Liu Mo quickly withdrew his hand, covered the place where he was pinched, and scolded Chu Chu pitifully: "What are you doing!"
Xiao Yan recalled the feeling just now. It was very real and definitely not a dream.
He chuckled.
Reborn! Back in the summer after I graduated from high school.
"You're crazy!" Liu Mo turned around and left angrily, making up his mind that he would have to apologize at least three times and buy gifts before he would forgive him.
"Hey! Wait!" Xiao Yan shouted from behind.
Liu Mo kept walking and apologized for the first time, so he would definitely ignore him.
But he heard Xiao Yan shouting: "Give this opportunity to someone else, I don't want it anymore."
Liu Mo paused and turned around in surprise, "What did you say?"
Xiao Yan smiled and said: "I said I am no longer interested in you, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on."
Liu Mo opened his eyes in disbelief. Is he crazy? Just now you were crying and begging me, why did your face change in the blink of an eye?
Is this what a man is?
"You...you...don't regret it." Liu Mo's pretty face turned red, and her chest was rising and falling violently.
"Don't worry, it won't be." Xiao Yan shook his head with a smile, pointed to the forearm she was covering, and said with a smile, "We are even."
"What?" Liu Mo was confused.
Xiao Yan just waved to her, turned around, and left quickly without any regret.
There was a sarcasm in the corner of his mouth, Liu Mo, the first person he saw after he was reborn was actually her.
In her previous life, she was Xiao Yan's inner demon.
At a young age, I have mastered the green tea trick.
Give him a chance to pursue it? Haha, she gave her this opportunity for eight years.
Four years in college and four years after working, my best years were wasted in pulling her back.
In the past eight years, he has not been allowed to do anything less for his boyfriend, but he has not been willing to shoulder any of his girlfriend's obligations.
And she gave this opportunity to more than just him.
During this period, Xiao Yan was not unaware that she was a spare tire, but every time he wanted to give up, she would take the initiative to tease him and give him hope.
Even buying a house in Qianhai City was for her. At that time, Liu Mo gave Xiao Yan the illusion that he was finally going to achieve success.
You can hold hands, hug each other, and ask for help from time to time.
As a result, the house had just been renovated, but she got married, married to a rich second generation, and actually sent him an invitation...
From then on, Xiao Yan was completely disappointed in women.
Just talk about transactions, feelings? roll!
Xiao Yan raised his head, looked at the clear sky above his head, and smiled slightly.
Maybe this is God's arrangement. After coming back, I will cut off this bad relationship first.
…
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yan returned home. It was an old house with no elevator. He lived on the top floor, the seventh floor.
This house was left by Xiao Yan's grandfather.
With his young body of eighteen years old, it was a bit difficult to climb up to the seventh floor.
Before Xiao Yan was reborn, his parents still lived in this house. At that time, they were old and it was even more difficult to go up and downstairs every day.
In fact, the conditions at home are not bad, and can even be said to be quite good.
My dad has a business unit and the harvest is guaranteed despite droughts and floods. My mom has opened a large jewelry store with six or seven employees.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to help him come up with the down payment for the house in Qianhai City in a few years.
The reason why they live here is just because they gave birth to a son like him, and they want to keep the money for him.
It was afternoon, and his parents were not at home. Xiao Yan took a careful look around the house full of memories, and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The weather in August was really hot, and he needed to wake up and think about what to do next.
Taking off his sweaty top, he saw a white jade pendant hanging on his chest.
Xiao Yan was stunned.
