PART 05 In pursuit of five dou of rice, I strained my back
What is the matter
I took the contract out from the bottom of my briefcase and handed it over. He accepted it with one hand, did not even glance at it, signed his name, stamped it, and then looked up at me and said: "With conditions"
I nodded and said softly, "Of course I know her; her grandson is my benefactor."
No, I shook my head, I am his business assistant
Alright, keep it up! I wave my arms towards the sky, throwing powerful left hooks, striking out, a 50,000 yuan order is just ahead
After the commotion last night, the quality of my sleep has undergone a qualitative leap, resulting in an unprecedented sense of refreshment
"Are you Mr. Xu?" I cautiously sought confirmation, how could it be possible, he is surprisingly so young!
"Yes, that's right, it's Derong, so I won't be coming to the office tomorrow morning," I said with great enthusiasm
"The precious pearl is here, as you wish." I patted my chest, filled with great ambition
He did not answer me, but pointed to the cake on the table and said, "You have eaten it, right"
"Why did you run away from the client?" Seeing my embarrassment laid bare, he thoughtfully changed the subject
I raised my eyebrows, indicating confusion
Why? I reached out to scratch my head, feeling even more puzzled
After walking a long distance, I turned back to look. Xu Pinxin was still standing with his hands in his pockets, watching me. When he saw me looking at him, he waved his hand and raised his voice, saying: "Baozhu, remember to keep your long hair!" After a pause, he cupped his hands to form a megaphone and shouted even louder: "You must be a good woman!"
I sighed. "Then..." I knew there would be further developments, otherwise Cress would not be so melancholic
"Gender is not an issue, Assistant Cheng, I have high hopes for you!" A May patted me on the shoulder, clenching her fist in excitement, "Nowadays, with the advancement of science, it is even possible for two men to have children. You must be brave!"
Cui Si suddenly sat up, let out a sharp scream, and exclaimed with excitement: "Is it that Lin Wan Nan?"
I was finally enraged, pounding the table and shouting: "Please do not doubt Manager Lin's judgment! He hired me, how could it possibly be because of my appearance?" What is this person implying? A subtle displeasure arose within me, and my eyes grew completely cold.
I pulled up my bag, stood up, and asked: "Do I know you?"
I proudly replied: "Yes, Manager Lin, I have a client, it is Delong Technology"
Hmm. He definitely nodded.
No need, no need, you go ahead first. I habitually declined.
I turned back, looked at him, and said expressionlessly: "Mr. Xu."
"Do not vent your anger on me, Lin Fengmian." I stomped my foot in dissatisfaction, my tone carrying a hint of petulance.
He continued to smile at me, nodding affirmatively. My shoulders suddenly slumped, and with a sorrowful expression, I cautiously asked, "Is Delong a competitor of Huafeng?"
Assistant Cheng, Manager Lin really has high hopes for you. Ah May pulled out a large bag of colorful pages from the warehouse, her eyes sparkling with excitement
I choked on my own saliva and coughed repeatedly. This person is extremely rude; as the saying goes, one should not hit the face when striking someone, nor should one expose a person's shortcomings when scolding them. He hasn't even scolded me yet, and my flaws have already been laid bare. I shot him a fierce glare, picked up my briefcase, and turned to say: "I am going up to discuss business now; you can keep the cake for yourself."
"Hello, please open the door!" Comrade Xiao He pressed the button on the security door, but there was only a hissing sound from inside, and no response. A piece of white paper was affixed to the security door, on which several large characters were scrawled: "No soliciting."
It has been proven that at critical moments, Sister Cissy can be deadly. My face collapsed into a soft mess, and as I slightly turned my neck, cold sweat flowed even more, trickling down my spine in a tingling sensation. I quietly slanted my eyes into a line and glanced furtively at the person at the door, and I could confirm one thing: the face of the person at the door was both pale and dark.
What a large building it is
Cui Si, sitting across the table, kept winking at me with a curious expression. After winking for a full half hour, I finally succumbed to her intense gaze and leaned in closer. Sure enough, I heard her ask, "Baozhu, do you know this grandson with Alzheimer's?"
"Cui, Manager Lin is the most capable man I have ever seen in my life." I made a face while pretending to be enchanted.
Without further ado, I bent down to grab the cake on the table, devoured it in three bites, and asked with a mouthful: "Ok, who are you? Do we know each other?"
Alright, it is getting late. See you tomorrow. Xiao He waved at me, making a gesture of farewell
I sighed and patted Xiao He, saying, "Let me handle it, Comrade Xiao He. This little matter is not beyond my capabilities"
"Pearl, over here." The young man in front of the glass window gently waved at me, his expression resembling that of someone calling back a lost little pet.
Xiao He is very dedicated, spending an entire afternoon with me, visiting three properties in one go. After visiting the three properties, Xiao He's eyes sparkled: "Assistant Cheng, today was the most efficient day; usually, I can't even get to the upper floors."
I put away the phone and took the elderly lady to sit down nearby
He looked me up and down, smacking his lips and said, "No wonder, no wonder." Seeing my face full of curiosity, he smiled and said, "I have no doubt that you are his assistant."
At 7:45, I have already arrived at the bottom of the Delong Technology building. I admit that I am feeling somewhat nervous
"Precious pearl, wait until you truly smile at me before you smile again." He stood up, patted my face and said with a smile, "I still prefer your genuine smile."
What? I stood up suddenly, utterly astonished, "How did you run over there?"
His face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly waved his hand, saying: "No need to be polite, Manager Lin has instructed that we will not clean the office area; we will specifically clean the office buildings within the residential area."
Okay, wait for me, I will arrive shortly
What?
Shouting across the hall is truly exhausting. I thought for a moment, glanced at my watch, and saw that it was still early, 8:40, which was enough time for a round trip. Therefore, I picked up my briefcase and walked back to the lounge area.
I covered my face with both hands and let out a wail. Cheng Baozhu, you are simply an idiot, actually feeling fortunate to be able to contact the CEO of Delong. I estimate that the entire business department in the company is waiting to see me make a fool of myself, begging clients only to end up at the competitor's door. Truly an exceptional ability.
I sighed: "You can borrow money from the people around you"
In the recent residential community, there is a unit with a dark green security door blocking the entrance. Downstairs, there is only a cold intercom, which means that without permission, we cannot even go upstairs.
How do you know it's my grandmother? Police station? Which district?
The person across from me suddenly burst into laughter, as if he had heard the greatest joke. His eyes nearly turned into slits from laughing, he pounded the table and wiped away tears, and after a long while, he managed to suppress his laughter and said: "How did Lin Fengmian describe the relationship between our two families to you?"
Assistant Cheng, my name is Hemiao, you will follow me during this period, and I will take you to distribute the colorful pages
Assistant Cheng, turn right after you go out, and Xiao He will take you to distribute the flyers. It was only after walking quite a distance that A May remembered such an important message
Lin Fengmian slightly tilted her head and whispered, "Grandma, what do you know?"
I gritted my teeth, my patience nearly exhausted, and was just about to stand up when the young man across from me suddenly spoke slowly: "Baozhu, do you know that there is a saying, 'Fellow travelers are enemies'?"
At the Eighth Brigade, you come over to pick up your grandmother. As I watched the old lady repeatedly smear the mud from her hands all over me in despair, I continued, "Also, bring a clean set of clothes." It would be best if I could get reimbursed for a set of work clothes, I lamented. Indeed, it seems that the work clothes stained with mud look particularly neat.
At this point, my mind could no longer process the information, and I asked in a daze: "Is it really signed?"
The young officer tugged at his hair and said: "In District X, Brigade 8, it would be best if a family member comes to claim them."
He nodded in astonishment, gave a thumbs up, and chuckled: "Assistant Cheng, you are much more clever than Manager Lin said, not at all like a fool"
I cleared my throat and said: "Mr. Xu has scheduled a meeting with me at 9 o'clock"
He actually nodded seriously and said with a solemn expression: "Indeed, Baozhu must have become Lin Fengmian's assistant because of her exceptional abilities"
He turned back to look at me, reluctantly giving up a seat. I reached out and pressed 201, but Xiao He screamed: "Wrong, wrong, Assistant Cheng, it's 301"
The waiter in the lounge quickly served the dessert, a fluffy cake adorned with bright red strawberries, glistening with freshness. I was drooling behind the glass, having woken up late and forgotten to eat breakfast. The young man did not eat the cake; he leaned back on the sofa, gazing thoughtfully out the window. I cautiously peered over, and his gaze fell on a certain spot behind me. It was evident that this glass was opaque.
Hello, who is it? A voice came through the intercom
Then, she does have money, but it is only one hundred.
A low chuckle came from the phone: "Alright, hopefully we can see Derlon's large order"
I need to conduct business tomorrow morning, aiming for an order of fifty thousand
"Indeed, I do not recognize you." The handsome man across from me sighed faintly, his face full of sorrow.
I dejectedly lowered my face and nodded slightly, thinking that this smile must look very unappealing, for I could see traces of pity on Xu Pinxin's face. Pity, I shook my head, how could that be? What a strange feeling!
"No, no, Assistant Cheng, he has already hired quite a few assistants, if not five, then at least four." Ah May's eyes darted around as she grinned broadly, saying, "You are the first one he values so much."
I nodded helplessly, just about to open my mouth to respond to her when suddenly, a cool breeze swept across my back, causing the hairs on my body to stand on end in an instant. Without needing to turn around, I could feel a wave of chill emanating from my back.
I opened my mouth, then closed it again, nodding and saying: "Thank you, Xiao He, you have worked hard."
I nodded, fanning the documents in my hand, and said: "I will take my leave first and go home to rest." My feet felt as if they were about to break from running.
"Is it because of ability?" The person across smiled
The old lady wore a mysterious expression as she circled around Lin Fengmian once, still feeling unsatisfied. She then turned again in a counterclockwise direction, mimicking Lin Fengmian by tilting her head and whispered to him, "Little girl, you resemble our Fengmian quite a bit, don't you think you might be Fengmian's little partner?" As she spoke, she winked at me, clearly pleased with herself.
Where can he be seen
The old lady squinted her eyes, pulled me over, and turned her back to Cress. "Feng Mian, you are good-looking, do not talk to this crazy woman, be careful not to get entangled with her. Grandma only has you as a good grandson, how could you get involved with such a granddaughter-in-law?" The old lady laughed with a face full of joy, grabbing my hand and pinching it painfully.
Cui Si and I exchanged glances, simultaneously choosing to remain silent; whoever took up the old lady's words would be the one to suffer.
The glass door is electronically secured, and I do not have a doorplate, so I can only peer inside through the glass. The designer of this building must be a pervert; the exterior is designed like the bottom of a pot, while the interior resembles a tropical rainforest. It is a perfectly good office building, yet there are such dense trees standing inside. I click my tongue and move along the glass. To the left of the lobby is the lounge area, beneath the floor-to-ceiling stainless steel glass, the sofas are orange-red, ... The curtains are made of linen-colored burlap, paired with the green towering trees, very ... It is truly unfathomable.
A young man in a suit sat in front of the glass, elegantly savoring his coffee. The coffee cup was not even as large as Sister Cici's Korean rice spoon. As I watched him through the glass, each time he took a small sip with his thin, red lips, my mouth watered with a gulp. I was so thirsty; the lid-like exterior made my mouth dry and parched.
Cheng Baozhu, you will not be able to see General Manager Xu when you go up
I grasped my head and rolled my eyes in silence. Lin Fengmian, surprisingly, was also waiting with them to see me make a fool of myself! Although he had never treated me kindly from the very beginning, this realization still made my heart feel a slight pang, a pain I interpreted as a blow to my self-esteem
I was suddenly taken aback and stammered, "Manager Lin, I am looking at my partner"
Ah? My mouth was wide open, and it took me a long time to close it. You value me? Where did you see that, Comrade May? You have quite an eye.
Oh, hello, I am from room 301. I forgot to bring the key for the security door. Could you please help me open the security door
I paced back and forth in anger, causing the ground to shake. I walked past the front desk, ascended the stairs, and stood in front of the elevator, waiting to go upstairs. From a distance, suddenly, a young man in front of the glass window called out: "Cheng Baozhu, who are you going upstairs to discuss business with?"
Cui Si nudged me with her elbow, gave a thumbs up from the crook of my arm, and whispered, "Baozhu, truly a top-notch one, a fine product, very handsome." I shot her a glance and pressed down her thumb.
Hmm? I was taken aback and asked, "What?" I certainly won't sell myself, Comrade Xu.
His smile unfolded once more, nodding slowly.
I also smiled, nodding repeatedly, affirming, "It is indeed ability!" In my heart, I cursed the ancestors of the person opposite me for eighteen generations.
Through the glass window, I feel like crying without tears, wishing I could bang my head against the wall. The young man inside the window laughs even more joyfully, waves his hand at me, pats the chair beside him, and makes a gesture with his lips. I can understand this gesture; he is saying: "Baizhu, come in"
"You eat the cake first," he pointed to the strawberry cake on the table and sighed, "Baozhu, you weren't this guarded before. When did you start doubting others so much?"
Manager Lin, it is I, Cheng Baozhu
With this realization, I felt even happier, pressing my face entirely against the glass, my nose flattened by the glass, my mouth compressed into a plane, my eyes recklessly darting between the cake and the young man. Both equally beautiful, both equally enticing. If Lin Fengmian were a lush green bamboo, elegant and proud, then the young man before me would be a noble and gentle orchid, exuding an air of elegance that emanated from his very bones
He raised his eyebrows high and said with a smile, "How can I not eat when you've drooled over it?"
He looked at me and suddenly reached out, saying: "If you don't believe me, then give me a contract, and I will sign it right now"
Damn it, she is in the late stages of dementia, handed me a roll of toilet paper, and then waited for me to give her change. How could I have any change to give her? She then called the police and said I extorted her money with the toilet paper! On the phone, Sister Cuis said through gritted teeth, "I don't care, Xiao Lu is on a business trip, you come to the police station and argue with her!"
The ringtone rang incessantly, and I fumbled to answer the phone. A loud voice pierced through the line, causing my eardrum to ache: "Cheng Baozhu, I forgot to bring money!"
The nearby Cress knocked on the stool and pounded the table, laughing with unrestrained joy, while Lin Fengmian's face began to spasm habitually.
Cheng Baozhu, come here quickly, remember to lean against the Wei X area, ah... The screams drowned everything out, I silently mourned over the phone, the female tyrant versus the elderly with dementia, the situation is concerning
"Are you his salesperson?" the person opposite stopped laughing and asked
I shook my head in agreement and asked, "Aren't the two companies potential clients?"
I looked up at the little policeman with a rooster comb on his head and asked, "Comrade, which district is managed here"
"Feng Mian, two Feng Mians?!" The old lady gasped, her eyes wide as saucers, her fingers darting between me and Lin Feng Mian. Suddenly, she burst into laughter, saying, "I know, I understand now."
With a click, the security door opened. I couldn't help but turn back and smile at the stunned Xiao He, asking, "Is it enough to just deliver the color pages to the front desk?"
"Huh? No way?" I dug into my ears, quite surprised. "He didn't have high hopes for me; he admitted me out of a sense of charity." He said himself that he admitted me to address the serious issue of unemployment in China.
The clock in the police station ticks away, and everyone inside wears a peculiar expression. On the third day of work, it remains exciting; I smile wryly, feeling even more motivated. Tomorrow, tomorrow will be another great day full of potential! Cheng Baozhu, keep it up, keep it up!
The old lady laughed happily and said, "Silly child, why does your own name sound so strange?"
Thud, thud, the sound of slapping and shouting continued to come from the phone
With a snort, Sister Cuis suddenly spat out a mouthful of saliva without any regard for face. I looked at Lin Fengmian with a face full of black lines, and he was equally troubled. Noticing my gaze, he glared at me with wide eyes and coldly said
Please come in! The door opens with a swipe, and the maroon carpet at the threshold is soft and plush. I couldn't help but step on it and stomp a few times; it feels so good.
"You wicked woman, you even spare the old lady's funeral savings..." The voice was desolate and mournful, coming from the phone, where an elderly woman's wail could be heard.
Then I encountered a beautiful woman and borrowed ... ... '' At that moment, Cuis stopped.
Infatuated? ! I pointed at myself in surprise and asked, "Ah May, you said I am infatuated with you? How is that possible? Lin Fengmian is a gay man, did my genes mutate into that of a man?
"Delong Technology?" The tone of Lin Fengmian was filled with astonishment, "You say it is Delong? How is that possible!"
The sound is not too loud, but sufficient for those around to hear. Each person's face bears a strange expression, bizarre and inexplicable, their gazes lingering between me and the man by the glass window. I scan the surroundings once more, once again marveling at the eccentricity of Delong Technology.
Ha? Such a high level of difficulty, Lin Fengmian, you are too ruthless! Specializing in residential buildings, this junior salesperson is not so junior after all. I let out a long sigh and said, "Well, okay, let's get started on the work for the residential buildings!"
Then, I borrowed from an old lady
I only fully woke up after pressing the six alarm clocks by my bedside in the morning
Alright, goodbye. I also waved my hand, turned around, and skillfully took out my phone to dial. Tomorrow, I aim to secure an order of 50,000; I have no time to distribute flyers.
Hello, is this Lin Fengmian? Your grandmother is at the police station
I was momentarily stunned, unable to react, and I lingered in a daze, reflecting on the competitor, Xu Pinxin, as there were two pieces of shocking information in a single sentence that left me in a state of shock.
I desperately suppressed my rage, tugging at my hair: "I'm coming over right now, you troublesome girl. My back and legs hurt today, and you still want to cause trouble for me."
I immediately felt a sense of pride in my heart, and just as I was about to reveal a triumphant smile, the person across from me paused for a moment and then said with a smile, "Even the competitors have tried to win them over as clients; such boldness, I, Xu Pinxin, cannot help but admire."
You see, in the past, so many were recruited, yet none started from the grassroots level; it just so happens that with you, they have solidified the foundation.
The wind is strong, causing the branches to sway vigorously
Xiao He smiled silently once again, her doll-like face radiating sunshine. How wonderful it is to be young! I touched my own face and followed closely behind her.
What is this situation? My hands and feet are numb, and I feel an inexplicable horror. Could it be that from the very beginning, he was able to see me but pretended not to? In other words, my flat nose, my drooping mouth, and my drooling while peeking at him could actually be considered an open display of infatuation? Why is this happening, and for what reason? I feel like I could clench my fists and roar, my head suddenly feeling as large as a basin.
I laughed, and the young man in front of the glass window also chuckled lightly, like a gentle breeze brushing against the willow branches, like a faint cloud drifting past the bright moon... etc., etc., etc., laughing lightly with whom?! I widened my eyes, momentarily stunned in place—he, unexpectedly, smiled at me?!
Oh
I stood beneath Delong Technology, speechless. Having passed by many times before, I always thought this was a bank. The exterior of the building is covered with layers of dark gray glass that glimmer with a subtle light. When the sun shines on it, it resembles the bottom of a stainless steel pot, sparkling and dazzling, making my eyes feel a bit scorched.
"Cheng Baozhu, are you betraying us at the critical moment?" Cuisu shouted behind me, hands on her hips, her black hair dripping everywhere, and the torn pieces of her dress fluttering with her vigorous movements
May I ask if there is a reservation
"Good, good, look more, look more, the more you look, the less likely your wife will run away." The invincible elderly woman with dementia laughed heartily, holding my hand and nodding vigorously, saying, "Feng Mian, you must treat her well, Grandma has a good eye for this girl."
"An order of fifty thousand?" Lin Fengmian's voice came through the phone, filled with confusion. "Do you have a place to run to?"
When I arrived, apart from the on-duty police officer whose hair was styled like a rooster's comb, Sister Cuisi's dress had practically turned into a beggar's outfit. Upon seeing me enter, she rushed over and cried out loudly: "Baozhu, you are here, you have finally come, teach this old man with dementia a lesson."
I continued to shake my head and said, "He is just wishing me good luck"
"Grandma, have you run away from the nursing home again?" Lin Fengmian's left hand was loosely resting on his suit, his tie askew and hanging at an angle on his shoulder, while his right hand held a plastic bag containing a sweater. His voice, though weary, remained gentle.
The young man leaned back on the sofa with his arms crossed, a mysterious sense of satisfaction at the corners of his mouth: "Cheng Baozhu, if you eat the cake, I will tell you where General Xu is."
He glanced at me, smiled slightly, and suddenly said with great joy: "Indeed, many people have praised me for my humor, thank you for the compliment, Baozhu"
"Baizhu, speaking of this makes me angry." The tone of Cuis in the phone was indignant
I turn away weakly, raise my fist weakly, and shout weakly: "Keep going, keep going, keep going." Cheng Baozhu, you must be strong; you are a strong junior staff member.
"Mr. Xu, you are very humorous." I could only manage a dry laugh
I felt slightly embarrassed and forced a smile, saying: "This joke is not funny at all. I am still new to this field, and my preparation has been rather superficial. I have shown you some jokes, but you shouldn't mock me like this."
I know you?" As I walked, I slightly raised my voice to ask, and then repeated the question, "Do you know me?"
His pitch-black eyes occasionally wandered, flashing past me as if no one were there. I couldn't help but lean in closer, pressing my face tightly against the glass. The pupils turned and turned through the cold glass, indeed of high quality. Could it be that the people inside cannot see those outside?
His face suddenly became inscrutable, with his hands tucked into the pockets of his trousers. He tilted his head and looked at me for a while before responding off-topic: "Cheng Baozhu, you should keep your long hair."
I thought for a moment and decided to explain the matter in detail. The person on the other side listened and laughed, saying: "Cheng Baozhu, perhaps I could hire you as a corporate spy and place you at Huafeng; I estimate it would drive a number of people crazy"
Caught in the act, yet you can still call out my name, what is the situation? I stood there in a daze, pointing at the access control card system, shaking my head, "Some young man, in fact, I cannot enter, I do not have a card"
Ah? What does it matter whether you come back or not? Sister, I have been waiting for an hour and a half already
"Cheng Baozhu, what are you looking at?"
I rolled my eyes silently and ignored him
"Wait, wait, wait, Cuis, let's talk about it later!" I waved my hand while sighing. I have a headache, what is the current situation? That old lady's grandson is very likely Lin Wan Nan.
You have a phone call, you have a phone call
I first borrowed from a handsome guy, but as it turned out, he only had 0.5 yuan in change
He glanced sideways, smiled faintly, slowly opened his mouth, and spoke word by word: "Because, the, precious, pearl, is, handsome."
Lin Fengmian remained silent for a moment before finally saying: "If it does not succeed, do not be discouraged"
I pretended to look up at the clock, my gaze drifting over Lin Fengmian's face, which twitched as if he had suffered a stroke, and let out a long sigh, utterly speechless. Indeed, it was a day filled with absurdity and busyness
I looked at her with a sense of grievance, and she continued to laugh heartily, saying: "Assistant Cheng, if you shoot that look at Manager Lin a few more times, it will all work out." While pressing the heavy colored pages onto my outstretched hand, her eyes sparkling, she shouted: "Go for it! Go for it!! Go for it!!!"
The fact is, I do not have money to take the unstaffed train back
The world is too small, and there are too many acquaintances. I rubbed my brow, sighed deeply, and walked over to take the mop from her hand. The dripping water from the mop soaked a large area of her dark blue coat. The old lady was exceptionally obedient, blinking her eyes at me with a beaming smile
My face suddenly fell, after all the fuss, Comrade A May still sees me as a man. If men can give birth, then I would be a celestial being. A May, I am just a woman. I do not need the clarity of science; I can also have a baby
"Alright, I wish you success." The low laughter, mixed with a hint of indulgence, intoxicated my heart, completely unaware that Lin Fengmian had already hung up. I held my phone, foolishly smiling with immense sweetness, my entire being filled with energy
Then, I entered the police station
Ah... Cheng Baozhu, help me..." Cuis raised her voice
"That is natural," Cuis said with a sultry smile, her gaze becoming increasingly ambiguous as she added, "The men of our Baozhu are the best in terms of both stamina and capability"
If I have short hair, I fear that I might fall in love with a man
Then? I asked
What is the use of leaving work early? Practicing horse stance? Singing in front of the iron gate? It is already 6:30, and I look at the clock again; the main gate is still tightly locked. Is Sister Cuis still working overtime? My body aches all over, every joint is in pain. I squat at the entrance, waiting for Cuis to come home.
"Feng Mian?" I furrowed my brow in suspicion, slightly raised my voice, and repeated, "Are you referring to Lin Feng Mian?"
Ah? I widened my eyes, scratched my head, and asked: "Is short hair not attractive?"
Of course, selling a smile is acceptable; I have facial spasms and am trying hard to force out a hint of a smile
Foolish! I am suffocating, looking at myself from all angles, how do I resemble that? Lin Fengmian, you are speaking insincerely! This is slander! Plus, it is blatant jealousy. I clench my fist and feel emotional, truly the hearts of people have changed, indeed the capable attract envy
"You are the one with dementia; I am only twenty years old this year, how could I be old?" An old lady stood in the corner, holding a mop and spitting. Upon seeing me, her eyes lit up: "Feng Mian, Feng Mian, come here, let grandma touch you." She stretched out a hand full of wrinkles and waved at me repeatedly.
"Well, Grandma, I am not Lin Fengmian. Let me find him for you." I scratched my head and, feeling helpless, took out my phone and began to dial with remarkable skill.
I was utterly speechless, clutching my bag, only wanting to punch him. Silently turning around, I casually waved my hand and said to him, "Mr. Xu, farewell." I walked away quickly, fearing that if I hesitated for even a moment, I would be unable to resist throwing a punch at him.
"Alternatively, I can also ensure that you do not embarrass yourself." Xu Pinxin leaned slightly forward, her bright and deep black eyes scanning my face. "It's just an order of fifty thousand; even if it's just to make you smile, I am willing to proceed."
He spoke with utmost seriousness, and there was not a trace of jest on his face. I suddenly felt my face flush, standing there at a loss for what to do
Alright
I finally broke down, turned around, and ran wildly, forgetting that there was a glass door in front of me. I crashed hard into the shimmering gray glass, feeling dizzy, dizzy... A bump on my head suddenly protruded, throbbing with pain. As I touched the large bump, I felt an inexplicable sorrow and anger! DeLong Technology, I hate you!
What is the relationship between Huafeng and Delong, do you know
Then, I rested my chin on my hand, waiting for her to repeat it herself
"Who are you? Why should I listen to you?" I mimicked him, crossed my arms, and heavily leaned back against the sofa as I sat down.
I turned to look at Cress, who had a twisted expression on her face, gritting her teeth. I could only cast her a comforting glance. Cress, we should respect our elders and care for the young, especially since she is suffering from dementia. Cress returned my glance with a sorrowful look, slightly nodded her head, and found a chair to sit down. The little police officer with a rooster comb hairstyle let out a big sigh beside the table, casually dragged over a chair, and sat down as well.
Is this the reason? I throw up my hands, unable to suppress my eye roll. What does this have to do with anything?
He smiled again, made a gesture, and pressed. I turned around and closely examined the access control machine; there was a button on it, which I pressed without hesitation. The voice of the receptionist came through the machine with crystal clarity:
To obtain the colored pages, you must first go to A May's place.
A contract in exchange for a smile from you
Hello, who is this
I suddenly noticed that Ah May's gaze has become increasingly strange, resembling crystals like black grapes
Of course, it is not just this; look at the way he gazes at you with such infatuation
I sighed, holding a thick bundle of colored pages, and turned right. There stood a shy, doll-like face, and upon seeing me, their eyes crinkled into a line of laughter
I swallowed my saliva and began to smile foolishly. How beautiful life is, the air is so fresh, and the heavens have bestowed upon me, Cheng Baozhu, a pair of discerning eyes. I must not disappoint the heavens' high expectations and will use them to appreciate handsome men and delicious food! The more I think about it, the happier I become, my smile is absolutely radiant, and as I touch the corners of my mouth, they nearly reach my ears.
