Chapter 5, The Toad
The three fell silent for a moment, while Li Boyong followed behind them, muttering to himself, "What’s wrong with me sending flowers? What’s wrong? No matter how you look at it, I’m still better than you, a pretty boy who can be kicked down with a single blow! What are you staring at? Jealous, are you?"
Xu Ji was too lazy to pay attention to this nonsensical man, so she endured the pain and turned to Yang Xuan: "What I said, take it to heart a little, would Senior Brother harm you?"
What happened?
Li Boyong felt that this incident left an indelible shadow in his youthful heart. Whenever he found himself in a complex mood, contemplating the idea of finding a wife, and simultaneously recalling the high heels of Zhao's ex-wife drifting towards him in the street, a sense of indescribable complexity would rise within his chest
Zhao Xuan got married at a young age, marrying a girl who is a stunning beauty. However, this beauty lacks education, dresses like a celestial being, and has a personality akin to that of a bandit. She dares to stomp her feet and curse in the street, with a mouth full of profanity without repetition. Her daily survival goal is to spend money, spend money, and spend more money.
This pain partly stems from his public relations expert, Zhao Xuan
Li Boyong is quite melancholic. Although the mention of his name conjures an image in everyone's mind of a simpleton with a flat top, dark skin, and a silly smile while holding a watermelon, he at least appears to be quite presentable. He does not possess a high level of education, is not from a strictly elite background, and cannot be considered part of the illiterate class. Even when he is in the restroom for a long call, he places a few books nearby, taking the opportunity to detoxify and beautify himself while enriching his spiritual world.
Life is always full of unexpected events
Xu Ji immediately turned around to glance at him, the disdain in his eyes was self-evident; even a blind person would know he was implying that a toad wishes to eat swan meat
This man, who roars against injustice, is none other than the legendary farmer entrepreneur, Mr. Li Boyong, known for the saying, "No matter how the wind blows or the rain beats down, I remain steadfast and single-minded"
Li Boyong immediately became furious, but upon seeing Xu Ji limping and drenched in cold sweat, he felt quite guilty towards him, so he restrained himself
Li Boyong was immediately astonished, as he did not expect that the public security in Huzhou City had deteriorated to such an extent
Li Boyong felt dazzled; he had not yet clearly remembered what the last person looked like before another one was introduced.
It is a shameful coincidence that the farmer entrepreneur was relentlessly pursued and pressured by his aunt and uncle to provide an evaluation of his relative, Miss Li. After much consideration, Mr. Li, adhering to the honorable tradition of seeking the cause within oneself, finally said with some reluctance: "I am like an old cow with poor teeth, unable to chew on such tender grass."
He turned back to Yang Xuan and said, "Don't be afraid, when dealing with such ruffians, one must not be soft. I am here, you can rest assured!"
Unfortunately, it still went too far, and in the end, the matter was exposed, leading the couple to court. The original spouse cried as if a great waterfall were pouring forth, a flood that even Dayu could not control. Amidst the wailing that echoed like a loudspeaker, she publicly cursed Zhao Xuan's ancestors for eighteen generations. On that day, the elegant Manager Zhao truly lost all face, and his dignity was utterly shattered
Just after he let out a furious roar and kicked Xu Ji to the ground, he saw the young man, dressed like a beast in human clothing, looking at him with a face full of anger and confusion. Li Boyong misunderstood the meaning behind his gaze, thinking it was the natural reaction of a vile person encountering a heroic figure. Thus, he chuckled to himself, humph, little brat, are you scared of me?
This is the life of modern urban dwellers, accompanied by an increasingly restless heart as people's pace quickens. Every day, many pleasure-seekers wander through the streets and alleys of the city, evaporating a thousand sweet nothings, ... and then creating many third parties, fourth parties ... and so on, up to the Nth party, the Mth party, simultaneously giving rise to many resentful women and many frustrated men
Li Boyong was taken aback for a moment, wondering, "What flower?"
Xu Ji could hardly roll his eyes; as a frail scholar who had long been in a state of suboptimal health, he naturally could not withstand a kick from the robust Mr. Li. He impatiently asked Yang Xuan, "Who is this lunatic?"
Then, at this time, Supervisor Zhao is forced to work overtime
Early in the morning, he was groggily directed by his aunt to have the driver take him to Huzhou Century Park, where he wore his own name tag and, under the guidance of the organizers, participated in one silly game after another, engaging in conversation with each girl sitting in front of him... Each person only had five minutes
What?
Yang Xuangan chuckled softly and said, "Ah... ah, yes, it is me... um, could you please... kindly lift your foot and allow my friend to walk upright first?"
Yang Xuan paused and said: "Um... a volunteer I have brought along." ... perhaps?
Yang Xuan: "Prevent fire, prevent theft, and prevent senior brothers."
Li Boyong thought to himself, this girl is truly pitiful, so frightened that she doesn't know what to say. ... Hmm ...? ... Why does she look a bit familiar?
Mr. Li witnessed the "corruption" process of his subordinate, observing his flirtation with a newly graduated female researcher in the company. Throughout this process, while turning a blind eye, he subtly reminded him several times not to go too far with his antics.
Auntie, a seasoned matchmaker, with an outstanding track record, naturally refused to give up when she saw that this matter was about to fall through. So, taking advantage of the weekend, she unceremoniously pulled Boss Li out of his warm bed early in the morning, urging him to make an appearance: "Come on, Auntie has signed you up for a weekend group blind date event. Dress up nicely so that those girls can see our Boyong. They really have no taste; just look at those odd-looking fellows on the street, each one has found a wife. Why doesn't our Boyong have any little peach blossoms?"
Li Boyong : `` ... ... ''
Ten minutes later, Yang Xuan made a phone call to summon a colleague to help out, and then supported the pale-faced Xu Ji, intending to go to the nearest hospital for a check-up. Li Boyong awkwardly touched his nose, following behind and nodding while saying, "Um, I'm sorry, I didn't know..."
There are many women who like him, and among them, there are quite a few who are beautiful. Even if one does not consider the charm of Mr. Li, one must take into account the value of the Renminbi. However, Mr. Li always feels that once he decides to try being with someone, he discovers that their thought processes are not on the same wavelength as his.
Yang Xuan : `` ... ... ''
Then he suddenly recalled the detailed and bizarre information that Zhao Xuan had sent to him. In addition to noting that the person was single, there was surprisingly a small string of reference data labeled "estimated three-dimensional measurements" written in the corner. With their solid friendship forged over ten years of collaboration, Li Boyong could easily deduce with his little toe who was behind this.
All of this left Li Boyong feeling very confused, as it clashed with the teachings instilled in him by his parents, who had been farmers all their lives: "One must be true to oneself." Sometimes, Li Boyong felt that others were justified in calling him unsophisticated, even though he had spent ten years finally establishing himself in this bustling city. Despite now having wealth and social status, a part of his body or soul still remained in a small village over three hundred kilometers away from Huzhou City, never having truly left.
Thus, he seized an opportunity midway to sneak away, diving into the beautiful woods of Century Park to experience the essence of nature and the scent of the earth
He always feels that marriage is a lifelong matter, so how can one casually settle for any woman?
Ah, isn't that Team Leader Yang? Li Boyong blinked.
He feels like he is about to be infuriated by these two individuals to the point of becoming a frog
He was thus pushed by his aunt to Century Park, in front of a large group of young men and women to meet potential partners
Li Boyong : `` ... ... ''
Then ... I inadvertently stumbled upon a scene where a man, resembling a beast in human clothing, was forcefully dragging a frail young woman, intending to take her away.
Li Boyong immediately introduced himself, saying: "Oh, I am the Li Boyong who collaborated with Baixing Company and the Hand-in-Hand Volunteer Center for an event last month."
Is this about finding a wife? Li Boyong rubbed his temples in pain and thought— even if the leader is reviewing the troops, it shouldn't be this chaotic
Yang Xuan was taken aback, wondering about the Bai Xing Company... "Li"? So he casually asked, "Are you the one who delivered flowers to my home?"
"Yes, yes, I am in the wrong." Li Boyong quickly said, "Please charge all your medical expenses to my account, I will pay for them."
Your Majesty Nao Nao feels that the intelligence of humans is truly declining with each generation, and thus she lowers her head in sorrow, desperately sniffing Yang Xuan's fingers, attempting to find a trace of the cucumber-flavored chips she had just eaten.
Xu Ji: " ... ... "
Finally, after Zhao Xuan had a little money, he went astray
What left Li Boyong feeling alarmed and terrified was that later Zhao Xuan and that young girl got married at lightning speed right after their divorce. However, now, not even two years have passed, and that Zhao fellow... it seems he is about to start searching for the next flower to be inserted into this pile of cow dung, as that scoundrel put it— the red rose has already turned into mosquito blood. Love... it has withered away. It seems he is about to start searching for the next flower to be inserted into this pile of cow dung, as that scoundrel put it— the red rose has already turned into mosquito blood. Love... it has withered away
Xu Ji was furious: "You rush out without knowing anything, kicking me without distinguishing right from wrong?"
