Chapter 274: Deliberately making things difficult
Chapter 274 "Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation" deliberately made things difficult
During this time, Chen Long's work was very unsmooth, and every time he worked for less than a few days, extremely bad things happened. It really broke his heart, and it made him thirst for a relatively stable job.
In the past few days when he came to the city, he has experienced all these big and small things, which makes him really confused and trapped in the pressure he has never faced in his work and life in the metropolis. If it weren't for the help of Old Man Shen and his wife at the beginning, and if it weren't for the help he received from Li Feng again and again, he might not have been able to persist until now, let alone take care of two children and support their children to go to school.
Of course, all this may have been deliberately arranged by the heavens to help support him in secret. There are so many people, but Li Feng is arranged to take care of and help him. And it is very coincidental that Li Feng is his biological sister. All this seems to have been arranged or predestined by fate......
Chen Long is a person with strong self-esteem, and he is not exhausted. In the last job, because Fang Qingfang made a clever claim, he privately asked people to arrange for him to do a job without any substantive work. In the end, he was beaten up before he learned the truth, so much so that he felt deeply insulted by his self-esteem. Thinking of the job that Li Feng finally found for him, he still used the same "out of pocket" method to arrange a job for him. Therefore, the blow to him from the two incidents is really a big hurt to his self-esteem that he has never felt before!
A gentleman does not eat the food that comes from him, and he will not be punished for nothing. Such a high-willed arrogance has been rooted in his bone marrow since he was a child. These two times were deliberately "arranged to work", in addition to making him deeply slandered, but also began to have a great distrust of people. At the same time, the fire on the security booth made him very puzzled, how could this fire burn and burn the entire wooden pavilion? The damage caused by the incident made him very apprehensive and did not dare to think about the big evil. thought to himself, if Li Feng hadn't arrived in time and helped deal with it, it was estimated that the follow-up problems of this incident would definitely be difficult for him to get out easily......
After a night of frightening and insomnia at home, Long Chen tried to keep his composure as much as possible. Early in the morning, he gets up normally to make breakfast for his children and sends them to school on time.
Thinking that it is impossible to find a suitable job for a while, I think about the shoeshine tools I just bought a week ago. So, he decided to continue to work on the stall to shine shoes for the time being, to ensure that he had something to do every day and a basic source of income.
Night comes every day, and the sun rises and sets in the west every day. Even if there is a catastrophe that shatters the heavens and the earth, the earth will rotate normally every moment of every day. People live in this world the same, no matter what happens or what happens, how rough and difficult life is, life must be carried out normally every day, and work must continue and persevere. Calm and orderly in the face of danger, this is the most basic life of a strong person......
It's like nothing happened last night, like that's how it was every day before...... Chen Long let go of the heavy worries and worries in his heart, took all his belongings for shoe shine on the stall, and came to the railway station square, which was the place he came to last time. Together with the small traders who set up stalls, he began his most free and difficult shoe-shine service to earn money.
Li Feng and Fang Qingfang drove together and came directly to the parking lot of the railway station square. After parking the car, Fang Qingfang followed closely behind Li Feng and walked towards the small vendor who set up a stall on the side.
Until this time, Fang Qingfang remembered that Chen Longyou and Lu Tingting had set up a stall here to shine their shoes before, and also remembered the conflict...... In this way, she seemed to have suddenly realized, so she asked Li Feng in disbelief:
"Li Feng, your sixth sense tells you that Long Chen is setting up a stall here to shine shoes now?"
"Don't you believe me?
Li Feng said, stopped, stretched out his hand and pointed to the vendor stall in the distance, motioning for her to look over.
Fang Qingfang followed the direction she was pointing and cast her gaze to search. Sure enough, I saw that Chen Long was waving his hand and trying to solicit shoeshine business from passing guests......
Looking at this scene, Fang Qingfang was extremely shocked!
What shocked Fang Qingfang was Chen Long's dedication and indomitable spirit to life, work and earning money to maintain a difficult existence. At the same time, Li Feng's induction of Chen Long's ability to predict so accurately shocked her beyond words. It's as if she can see through the air, and can see where Long Chen is and what he's doing!
Looking at Fang Qingfang's surprised face, Li Feng smiled and said to her: "How about it, you can see clearly that it is Chen Long over there, right? Next, how do you see how we should approach him? How should we persuade him not to let him set up a stall to shine shoes again, and do such a dirty, hard, and unearnable job again......
Long Chen turned his head to look left and right, and tried to greet the passing guests to polish their shoes. However, there were many passers-by, but almost no one paid attention to his screams. It's not easy to get a small shoe-shine business!
Just as Chen Long was about to look around, he seemed to notice Li Feng and Fang Qingfang who were standing in the distance staring at him. As a result, his face immediately changed dramatically and he began to get nervous......
He didn't dare to look around anymore, and no longer greeted passing customers for business, but lowered his head and checked and sorted out the shoe-shine tools and items, with a very embarrassed look on his face.
"How about it, should we step forward, it seems that Long Chen has already discovered me and you!" Fang Qingfang asked Li Feng.
"Yes, he found both of us. Li Feng replied, "Let's go forward, it's rude to stand here staring at him, and it invisibly puts pressure on him." ”
"But, go forward, what do we tell him?" Fang Qingfang asked in wonder.
"Let's do it when the opportunity comes. Let's find out his mentality first, after all, he has discovered us, can't we turn around and leave now?"
Li Feng replied, and pushed Fang Qingfang forward and walked up slowly......
Chen Long, who pretended to be busy, although he didn't dare to look up, he had already noticed with his eyes that the two of them had approached his small stall.
The two girlfriends stood two meters away from the stall, staring at him intently. And Chen Long never raised his head to look at them, just played with the shoe-shining tools with his hands as if he was bored. His embarrassed and nervous expression made Li Feng and Fang Qingfang look very mixed feelings, and their hearts felt like they had knocked over the five-flavor bottle......
Fang Qingfang couldn't hold back any longer, she strode up boldly, sat on a small stool all of a sudden, broke the embarrassing atmosphere and called to him: "Come, help me clean and polish my shoes......"
Of course, Long Chen knew that it was Fang Qingfang, and now she sat on the stool and called it. He couldn't pretend he couldn't see and hear anymore, could he?
He took the shoe-shine brush, and finally raised his head, and met her eyes, but his face was blank and expressionless.
Seeing that he was just looking at himself and silent, Fang Qingfang continued to say to him: "What's the matter, aren't you a shoeshone? Hurry up and help me shine my shoes! Are you afraid that I won't give you money for shoeshing, or do you not want to do my business?"
Chen Long seemed to be blocked by her words, he moved his lower lips, but he still couldn't speak. Finally, after looking at her new and clean translucent crystal sandals, he reached out and grabbed the root of her back shoes, and carried them to the ground with her feet, and said:
"Don't come and mess with me, your new shoes are still very clean, and you don't need me to wipe them. You all go away and go back, don't bother me to work and earn money!"
"Yes, are my shoes newly bought, but I still want you to wipe them carefully from beginning to end!" Fang Qingfang said very clearly.
"Why do you want me to wipe it?" asked Chen Long, very unhappy.
"Just because you're a shoes-shiner!" Fang Qingfang emphasized with full reason, "Shoes-shiners, of course, are only responsible for shoes-shine, what are so many reasons? Anyway, I won't miss your shoes-shine money!"
After Fang Qingfang finished speaking, she resolutely raised her feet and put the Gaogen sandals on the shoeshine pile again, as if she had to ask him to serve her and shine her shoes.
"......" Chen Long was so stunned by her that he couldn't answer. He took the shoe-shine brush in his hand and hesitated to wipe her ...... He knew in his heart that she was deliberately making things difficult for him, so that he would be embarrassed and unable to get off the stage!
Li Feng, who had been standing behind Fang Qingfang and watching, could no longer stand her best friend deliberately making things difficult for Chen Long like this, especially when she saw Chen Long's helpless expression, it hurt like a needle piercing her heart. So she stretched out her hand and pulled Fang Qingfang from behind to dissuade her and say:
"Qingfang, come on, get up quickly, don't make trouble! stand up, let's talk to him directly if we have something to say." ”
Hearing Li Feng's persuasion from behind, Long Chen raised his head to look at her, but he only touched his gaze and immediately lowered his head again.
Looking at Long Chen's helpless reaction and listening to the persuasion of his best friend, Fang Qingfang had no choice but to give up making things difficult for Long Chen. She quickly put her feet down and stood up. Then he said with a bit of an order:
"Since I don't want to shine my shoes, let's go back! Anyway, staying here will only be a waste of time, and I won't be able to earn a lot of money!"
When Long Chen heard her say this, he didn't respond to her, nor did he look up at her. Instead, he played with the shoe-shine tools with both hands, as if he hadn't heard her.
Seeing Long Chen like this, Li Feng felt even more distressed, so he stepped forward and asked him with concern: "Long Chen, these shoes ...... Let's go back together, I have something to tell you about work and last night......
Listening to such a kind speech, Chen Longxin suddenly seemed to be soft. He looked up at her and replied, "What kind of work? What else do you need to do with last night's incident? You came here to find me just for last night's ...... Haven't dealt with it yet? What else should you do with me? Do you want me to compensate for the damage caused?"
"No, no! Chen Long, don't misunderstand, misunderstand. How can I ask you to compensate for the loss?" Li Feng hurriedly explained to him, "You were also present at the time of last night's incident, and I told my brother about the losses caused." Don't worry about you. It's just that...... There are other things that need to be talked to you again......"
"What else? Then you can just tell me right here. Chen Long listened to the request.
"It's not good here, let's go back and find a place to talk slowly. Li Feng replied, then changed the topic and said, "It's almost noon dinner time, or let's go eat first." And then I'll talk to you slowly at the dinner table, okay?"
Chen Long seemed to see that she just wanted to come and let him go back, and didn't want him to shine his shoes here. So he said bluntly: "Thank you for your kindness and concern! You better go back first, if you want to eat, you two go and eat! I must set up a stall here today to earn my money, and no one can let me go back! As for any work or last night's work, when I go back in the evening, I will call you again or talk to you." ”
"You...... Why are you disobedient and have such a strong temper?" Li Feng was very helpless, and patiently continued to persuade him, "I know you need to earn money to support your children, but ...... How much money can you earn a day by setting up such a small stall here? It's better to find a good job, earn money quickly, and not be so tiring and tired......
"It's here, I don't want to hear you talk about work anymore!" Chen Long was suddenly enraged, looked at her with red eyes, and said: "I am very grateful to you for helping me find a job and arrange a job so kindly! But I can no longer bear that kind of work, and I dare not do it anymore! In the future, I will find a way to solve my work and my survival, and I don't need you to worry about helping me! I have nothing to do with you, I am just a foreigner from the countryside." I don't want others to disturb my work and life, and I don't dare others to bother and cause trouble because of everything I do......"
"Long Chen, can you stop saying that!" Li Feng was also angered by his words, "We just helped you with good intentions, and we didn't mean to harm you, let alone want you to repay or anything! Can you stop distrusting us and guarding us like this? Of course I know that you are an outsider from the countryside and have nothing to do with me...... But can't we be ordinary friends and help each other? You are a stranger, with no relatives and no reason in this provincial town, and you have two children...... We know that your work and life are not easy, and we have the ability to help you, and it is just a matter of effort. Can you accept our kindness to you, let us help you......"
Listening to these heart-warming words, Long Chen was very moved. But his super self-esteem still made it difficult for him to accept it positively, so he insisted on responding: "Come on, I still say the same thing, thank you very much for your kindness and help to me! However, from now on, please take it back, I really can't bear it! I will never be able to repay you for this piece of love for me...... Alright, you guys go back quickly, don't stop me from doing business here. Look, everybody's staring at me, like you're here to make trouble with me!"
Chen Long said, his eyes on the people standing around and watching the excitement, hesitating to be surrounded by monkeys, and his face showed embarrassment.
Li Feng didn't care what the people around him thought of them, but his eyes were always focused on looking at Long Chen. felt that she couldn't convince him for a while, so she gave up in her heart.
She turned her head to Fang Qingfang and said, "Then let's go back first, he's just a hard and stinky bone, what does he like, it's up to him!"
Fang Qingfang, who stood without saying a word, stared at Chen Long's unreasonable expression for a moment before agreeing to his girlfriend: "You are right, this kind of stinky and hard bone does not deserve our sympathy and pity! Let's go to a big dinner, and leave him here to be embarrassed and busy!"
Chen Long pretended not to hear what he said to them, and began to fool around with the shoe-shine brush in his hand again.
Seeing his pitiful, foul-tempered, and angry appearance, Li Feng really couldn't do anything about him, so she nodded with her best friend, turned around and left.
Fang Qingfang turned around and followed, but stopped immediately after taking two steps, turned around and said mockingly to Long Chen: "Long Chen, I suggest that you come here every day to set up a stall to shine shoes, I heard that you can make a lot ......of money by shining shoes, and you can make a fortune!
After Fang Qingfang finished speaking, he followed Li Feng and strode away without looking back.
Of course, Chen Long heard that her words were full of extreme sarcasm and sarcasm, but in his heart, he didn't take it seriously. I thought, what I'm going to do, you don't care, what do you like!
Feeling that they were far away, Long Chen raised his head and looked forward, until he saw their figures disappear into the vast crowd......
