Chapter 24: Shooting Yourself in the Foot
I turned on my phone and looked through last night’s text messages.
"What are you doing?"
"?"
"Do you keep your word?"
The first three sentences didn't seem normal. According to the message Luo Yang sent back the day before, Jiang Wen should have kicked him out.
Or you can cleverly resolve the embarrassment and continue to keep it in the fish pond for future use.
How can there be a showdown like this?
What’s even more terrible are the last two messages.
"A real man should keep his word!"
"I'll come see you next weekend!"
Luo Yang: “.”
I was about 60% drunk before going to bed last night, and I was probably confused, so I sent such a "grand" message.
But there was one thing he couldn't understand. Jiang Wen had clearly sent a message on Saturday night that was enough to blow up the fish pond, so why did she suddenly change her attitude?
Luo Yang suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
It’s not that he looks down on Jiang Wen. What’s wrong with a little tea? Not to mention that she’s a beauty with long legs and above, she can provide more emotional value than ordinary girls.
Just like Master Tong said, don’t miss a good girl and don’t waste a bad girl.
But all of this has to do with a prerequisite, that is, Luo Yang's family has not yet incurred so much debt.
It’s not that he is afraid of not being able to pay it back. As a reborn person, a debt of more than one million is not a big burden for Luo Yang.
The key point is that he can't just watch his parents being blocked at the door by debt collectors while he spends hundreds of thousands of dollars every year to support a girl. He would feel guilty if he did such a thing.
He still remembers the past. For the first three or four years, every time the Spring Festival was approaching, his parents who lived back in their hometown in the countryside would be blocked by debt collectors until the night of New Year's Eve.
During that time, Luo Yang's family didn't even dare to buy new electrical appliances, otherwise they would be gossiped about.
What is even more heartbreaking is that most of those people who blocked the door to collect debts were Luo Jianguo’s disciples who had made a fortune with his help!
It is for this reason that Luo Yang is unwilling to go home. During the winter and summer vacations, he would rather hide in Shanghai to work. Even during the Chinese New Year, he only goes home on the eve of the Chinese New Year and leaves after the third day of the New Year.
Now that he has been reborn and just earned 500,000 or 600,000 yuan, he is also thinking about getting together 1 million yuan by the end of the year to pay off the bulk of the family debt. How could he possibly have the mind to spend it on Jiang Wen?
One or two years at night is about right.
After smacking his lips and sighing with regret, Luo Yang put down his phone and continued to work hard with the computer.
Time flies and it is Wednesday. Since he has no classes in the afternoon, Luo Yang plans to go to a stock trading company in Songjiang to open an account and put his spare money into Maozi's stocks.
After lunch in the cafeteria, Chen Xufeng went back first, and Lu Hao asked Luo Yang and Chang Sheng to stay and see the beauty.
"I'll tell you a trick. To see beautiful women, you have to do it during military training."
In front of Luo Yang and Chang Sheng, Lu Hao talked freely: "Girls who can wear military training uniforms beautifully are the truly beautiful ones. Also, since they sweat easily, most girls don't wear heavy makeup. Half-bare makeup can better show whether a girl's foundation is good or not!"
"Boss, your theory is solid, but what's the point if you don't put it into practice?"
Chang Sheng pointed with his chin: "At 11 o'clock, the girl sitting in the middle of the three girls is pretty good. Boss, you can go and try to get her QQ number."
"Really? Let me take a look?"
Lu Hao looked towards the eleven o'clock direction and saw three freshmen in military training uniforms sitting together. The one in the middle had short hair and looked quite dashing.
Luo Yang also took a look and had to admit that Chang Sheng had a sharp eye. This girl with a 70% appearance was really suitable for Lu Hao.
"Boss, go ahead, I support you too!"
"It's not good to ask for someone's QQ number in public when we have never met before."
As soon as the real guns and live bullets came into play, Lu Hao immediately wilted.
"A gentleman loves a beautiful lady. Just ask for her QQ number. It's okay even if she doesn't give it to you." Chang Sheng pouted and said, "Boss, it's because I have my heart set on Jiang Wen. Otherwise, how could a girl like you get a chance? She's not bad looking, not that hard to chase, and more popular than the school belle. Believe it or not, you'll be taken within a month after school starts."
Before he could finish his words, a boy in military training uniform sat down opposite the three girls.
"Did you see that?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Chang Sheng took out his cell phone and started swimming in Jiang Wen's fish pond.
Luo Yang patted Lu Hao on the shoulder and said, "Boss, you need to pursue happiness by yourself. If you don't take that step, how do you know if you can do it?"
After saying that, he gave him a push: "Go, even if you can't get the QQ number, at least go and make yourself familiar with him."
Lu Hao moved over at a snail's pace until the boy left with a look of regret on his face, and then he stood next to the three freshmen.
"Old Four, it's time to watch the show!"
After Luo Yang called him, Chang Sheng also raised his head and looked towards the eleven o'clock direction.
This scene is not a long TV series, nor a 90-minute movie, it is not even a micro-movie. At best, it is a 30-second short video.
I saw Lu Hao's mouth twitching, and then the three girls laughed so hard that they fell backwards. Lu Hao, with a red face, ran away.
"What did you teach him just now?"
Chang Sheng looked at Luo Yang in confusion.
"I don't know, let's go and ask."
The two looked at each other, then ran out of the cafeteria and caught Lu Hao at the door, with the blush on his cheeks still not fading.
"What did you say just now?"
Luo Yang asked curiously, "I see they are laughing very happily. This is a good sign. Humorous boys can always attract girls' attention."
Lu Hao's cheeks instantly became red.
However, roommates are all fun-loving people, and their happiness is often built on the suffering of others. After a "severe torture", Lu Hao finally confessed the truth.
"After I went there just now, my mind went blank."
He covered his face and said, "I just said: Hello classmate, I came here to make you familiar with me!"
"Pfft!"
"Hahaha"
After hearing this, Chang Sheng and Luo Yang laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their backs.
Lu Hao fled in panic. He was a meter tall guy, as agile as a cheetah.
This joke was enough to sustain me until graduation.
After laughing, Luo Yang looked at the time. It was almost one o'clock.
"Old Four, I have something to do at the company this afternoon, so I may be back late. I won't have dinner with you guys."
"It just so happens that I have something to do."
Chang Sheng shook his phone and said, "I still have to chat with Jiang Wen in the afternoon. Maybe I can ask her out for dinner tonight."
Gee.
Recalling the content of the text messages on his mobile phone, Luo Yang shook his head slightly and glanced at Chang Sheng.
"No, what's with that look in your eyes, Third Brother?"
Chang Sheng almost jumped up and down. He was not a fool and he actually saw pity in Luo Yang's eyes.
I'm really angry.
Dear friends, if you have tickets, please give some.
