Chapter 0008: Co-renting Partners

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

However, this time he was not selling talismans, as talismans are too difficult to sell. If it had not been for his chance encounter with that woman in a state of urgency last time, he might not have sold a single one by now

Xu Wei was still pondering that she could at least be considered a beauty, so why did Ye Mo not even have the thought of sitting a little longer? This was truly disheartening, as it seemed he was only there to have a meal. However, Xu Wei quickly came to a realization; he must be feeling insecure. After all, he was an unemployed drifter, unable to even afford a mobile phone, so it was understandable that he felt embarrassed to sit and talk with her. With this thought, Xu Wei finally found some balance in her feelings.

Today’s meal was quite good, thank you. Ye Mo thought to himself that it would be great if he could have a meal like this every day, so he wouldn’t have to go out every day just to eat.

... ...

"How do you know I am not your opponent? To be honest, since I was discharged from the military, I have not encountered an opponent. Since you are so confident, let us see how it goes." Fang Weicheng's expression was somewhat strained.

"Ye Mo, let's exchange phone numbers. My number is 13XXXXXXXX, what is yours?" Xu Wei asked, taking out a delicate pink phone.

After glancing at Fang Weicheng, Ye Mo shook his head and said to the *picture* book: "You are not my match, so let's forgo the sparring."

This was indeed somewhat beyond his perception. When he regained consciousness, he found himself placed on a stone pedestal beside Ye Mo, as if he had originally been sitting there. The young man who had attacked him, however, had already vanished.

As Fang Weicheng's fist was just thrown and before he could change his move, Ye Mo suddenly stepped forward, swiftly grasping Fang Weicheng's fist. With a lift of his hand, Fang Weicheng's nearly 200-pound body was raised by Ye Mo, causing his head to buzz instantly

"My name is Fang Weicheng. It's obvious that you come from a prestigious background. Feeling a bit restless, how about we spar a little?" After hearing these words from the middle-aged man, Ye Mo realized that this person was looking for a fight with him.

Ye Mo's idea is akin to selling talismans; either he does not open for business, or he intends to make a year's worth of profit in one go

Ye Mo returned to his room, but he was contemplating whether he should buy a mobile phone. However, thinking about how a phone would be of no use to him, as he was completely alone here and had no one to contact, he decided against it after some consideration

Xu Wei was stunned for a long time, thinking to herself that even a migrant worker has a mobile phone, yet this Ye Mo doesn't even have a phone or a book. This guy is really doing poorly; it seems he definitely hasn't paid his rent. I really don't understand how the landlord would allow him to move in.

Xu Wei's cooking is quite good, at least much better than the random meals that Ye Mo eats out every day

A standard technique known as "Black Tiger Steals the Heart"; Fang Weicheng believes that although this move appears simple, once the young man makes a move, his technique will immediately transform, allowing him to understand his own prowess

The fifty thousand yuan he had on him was spent by him on rent and purchasing some medicinal herbs. Coupled with his usual expenses, he was left with just a little under twenty thousand yuan. Ye Mo decided to set up a street stall again

Ye Mo had always been dining out, so he was surprised that someone was treating him today. Of course, he would not refuse such an invitation. He smiled and said, "Alright, thank you very much. I see you leave early and return late every day; why didn't you go to work today?"

The reason he wants to spar with this young man is that he believes the other's punches are not mere show, and his own are not for show either; engaging in a fight with him should be beneficial for himself

You..." Fang Weicheng was almost choked by Ye Mo's words, and his anger gradually rose. With some irritation, he said: "Since that's the case, let's see your skills."

"Is it just here? Aren't we going to a bigger place?" Fang Weicheng looked around.

"So impressive..." After a long while, Fang Weicheng finally reacted and murmured. Even his coach in the army could not have won against him so effortlessly.

I do not have a phone; in the future, you can just knock on my door if you need anything. I can still help you with some general matters. I am going back now. " After saying this, Ye Mo stood up and returned to his own room.

This time he intends to set up a street vendor stall for a night market doctor, inspired by the work of Xu Wei.

Ye Mo smiled awkwardly and said, "I have never cooked for myself..."

In recent days, one of my colleagues took leave, and since I happened to have time off, I helped her cover the night shift. Xu Wei did not expect that this homebody was quite observant.

The middle-aged man had just been practicing boxing nearby, and Ye Mo had seen him. However, Ye Mo regarded his boxing style as merely flashy and unrefined, so he did not pay much attention. At this moment, seeing the man come over to greet him, it would not be polite to ignore him. He could only smile slightly and say, "It's just some random practice of mine, nothing special."

Then let's go to a restaurant. Xu Wei found Ye Mo somewhat endearing; typically, when inviting a girl one is not very familiar with to dinner, one would not cook for her but rather take her to a restaurant.

He joined the army at the age of seventeen and only retired at thirty-two. Although he became a driver after retirement, he never let go of his skills. How could he claim that he is not a match for him? This young man is at most just a little over twenty. It is hard to believe that he is not a match for a young man in his early twenties.

When Ye Mo walked into the small courtyard where he lived, Xu Wei was surprisingly observing the flowers and plants he had cultivated. Although Ye Mo had planted many flowers and plants, the main purpose was to conceal the 'Silver Heart Grass'.

Another reason is to set up a mobile street vendor stall, which offers strong mobility, preventing oneself from being targeted by others. Moreover, setting up a stall at the night market not only helps avoid scrutiny from urban management but also allows for practicing skills while selling. Of course, the primary reason is that street medicine is prohibited; the government does not allow it, and it can only be done at night.

Ye Mo said helplessly, "Alright, I will treat you to a meal next time if the opportunity arises." Yet, he thought to himself, I knew there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world; sure enough, just after finishing lunch here, I already owe another meal.

Xu Wei said playfully that she felt Ye Mo did not seem much like a bad person

Ye Mo shook his head and said helplessly, "Alright, since you want to give it a try, go ahead and take action."

However, this guy is quite vain. He even claims that he can help himself with ordinary matters. Xu Wei shook her head; this Ye Mo doesn't seem like a bad person, just a bit prideful. Perhaps finding him a janitor job at the hospital would be better than continuing to be unemployed.

Hearing Ye Mo's words, the middle-aged man awkwardly smiled. It was evident that Ye Mo did not intend to get acquainted with him. However, he did feel that Ye Mo's boxing skills were quite good and should not be inferior to his own, which sparked his desire to befriend him, prompting him to take the initiative to greet.

Fang Weicheng was taken aback. Just a moment ago, he thought the young man was quite humble, but how did he suddenly make such a boast? He couldn't help but feel his face flush slightly, thinking that although the young man's boxing skills had caught his attention, to say that he was not his opponent was indeed an overestimation of himself.

Upon seeing Ye Mo walk in, Xu Wei felt a bit awkward and quickly stood up, trying to make conversation by saying: "I didn't expect you to enjoy planting flowers and plants. Generally, men who cultivate flowers and plants are very meticulous, and it seems you are also a very meticulous person. Oh, I bought some vegetables today; let's eat together later, as a way for neighbors to get to know each other."

Ye Mo smiled slightly and said, "After all, it's just a few moves; there's no need for that."

We are all neighbors, so there is no need for thanks. In the future, you can also invite me to eat.
