Chapter 21: Loneliness
As for the excitement, as long as one person stops, a group of people will gather to watch after a while. And when the lively protagonists dispersed one after another, the crowd of onlookers disappeared without a trace as quickly as possible.
After learning that Yuan Ye was a genuine chengguan, Xiang Chen not only became kind and pleasant when he spoke, but even the smile on his face was cute and cute.
After repeatedly confirming that Yuan Ye would not hold a grudge against him, Xiang Chen gave up the idea of crushing Yuan Ye's bones again.
Looking at Xiang Chen's departing back in horror, Yuan Ye, who hadn't felt scared for a long time, found that his legs couldn't help but start trembling.
Remembering Xiang Chen's outline clearly, it is not too late for those who know the times to avenge Junjie and Junzi for ten years is the truth practiced by most Chinese men.
Something like a street number is like a snowflake flying into the reeds in an old neighborhood, occasionally appearing, but when you want to look for it again, it is hard to find. But fortunately, the old community also has its benefits, and the enthusiasm of the residents here is beyond all Xiang Chen's imagination.
When Xiang Chen asked the aunt in the community with the advertisement for renting the house, the warm-hearted aunt almost sent Xiang Chen to his destination, and thanked him again and again, so that Xiang Chen could be separated from the warm-hearted aunt.
"Mom, the scholarship given to me by the school has arrived, it is enough to pay for Dad's hospitalization fee, don't work too hard in the future, I will make a lot of money!"
Hurriedly returning home, Bai Lu said to her mother with some concern.
Today, he is here, but if he is not by his mother's side one day, Bai Lu can't imagine how the pair of brothers of the Yuan family will embarrass his mother.
"It's out of the way, while I can still make some money, and make it easier for you. ”
Bai Lu's mother owes Bai Lu's hand, Yuan Ye's kid took the opportunity to embarrass his daughter, Bai Lu's mother didn't know, but swallowing his anger has always been the way of survival for most poor people, taking a step back may not be the sea and the sky, but forbearance for a while can definitely calm down, after all, not every time someone will come out to make trouble and transfer the contradiction elsewhere.
"In the future, I will be out of the stall a little later, don't be distracted in college, concentrate on doing a good job in your studies, your father and I are already very guilty of you, and we must not drag you down anymore!"
Sitting on the edge of the bed with Bai Lu and talking, Bai Lu's mother sighed endlessly.
Bai Lu comforted her mother softly, and her heart became more and more disdainful of boring people like the Yuan brothers and Xiang Chen around her.
Thinking that today's luck is good, he and his mother can get out without danger, if it is changed to the past, it will inevitably be teased by Yuan or Yuan Ye.
With a sigh of relief, looking at the sunset through the window, Bai Lu believed that every day in the future would be better than the day before, and then become the best version of herself, cure her father who was sick in bed, and let her mother have no worries about food and clothing.
When I didn't go to college, staring at the sunset every day was the time Bai Lu was enjoying, and every moment of immersion in it, Bai Lu would feel that the world was worth it.
Dangdangdang......
In the time that Bai Lu enjoyed the most, there was a knock on the door.
Bai Lu was stunned for a moment, and then jumped over to open the door.
There are very few neighbors who usually come to Bai Lu's house, and the reason is that his father's serious illness has borrowed all the channels that can borrow money, until now Bai Lu still vaguely remembers his childhood, those relatives and neighbors avoided him and his mother, and this dilemma lasted until Bai Lu's high school days, when Bai Lu's scholarships began to become more and more.
"Either Aunt Wang gave us our father's subsidy, or someone wants to rent our house!"
Bai Lu first ran to her mother, who was preparing a meal, and said happily before opening the door.
After studying in college, Bai Lu spent less and less time at home, so his room was empty, and after thinking about it again, the mother and daughter decided to rent out the small room, and the income of a few hundred yuan a month was far better than no income!
Thinking that whether it was Aunt Wang of the neighborhood committee or the tenant, she could bring herself a lot of income, Bai Lu couldn't control the smile on her face.
It's just that the smile on Bai Lu's face stopped abruptly the moment he opened the door, and then disappeared.
"Hello, I see you have a house for rent here......"
When Bai Lu saw Xiang Chen, the enthusiasm on his face suddenly cooled, and after Xiang Chen saw that the person who opened the door for him was Bai Lu, his voice gradually weakened.
"I have a room for rent at home, but I won't rent it to you, please go back!"
Bai Lu said that he was about to close the door, but was stopped by Bai Lu's mother. first glanced at Bai Lu reproachfully, and then said to Xiang Chen with a smile.
"Young man, we are indeed looking for tenants, but we only rent one room, we have two mothers and daughters, and you are one man, which is not very convenient!"
Bai Lu's mother had tried her best to make her voice sound calm.
"Mom, what are you talking nonsense about him? If you don't rent, you don't rent! Let's go!"
Bai Lu interrupted her mother's voice, and at the same time looked at Xiang Chen viciously.
"If you don't leave, I'll call the police!"
Bai Lu took out her mobile phone and stared at Xiang Chen, not losing to anyone in terms of momentum.
Bai Lu's mother sighed, not to mention that the young man in front of him indirectly got out of trouble for himself just now, in case he was like the two brothers of the Yuan family, he would be revenged, wouldn't his daughter be more dangerous?
Unfortunately, her daughter was still too young, and Bai Lu's mother wanted to appease Xiang Chen, but Xiang Chen had already taken the lead in understanding.
"Excuse me!"
Whispering, Xiang Chen turned to leave.
Holding his head high, all the gestures of echoing the victor were shown by Bai Lu.
"Why are you so fierce to other people's boys?"
Gently closing the door, Bai Lu's mother looked at her daughter, and did not forget to put her ear to the door again after speaking, as if she was afraid that Xiang Chen would not go far and hear her own voice.
"The more you hold back and tolerate some people, the more they will have to take an inch, and if we swallow our anger, those people will bully us without any scruples!"
The battle intent on Bai Lu's face was not exhausted.
"Besides, our rental advertisement is clearly written, only female tenants are recruited, and he is holding the advertisement to rent a house, not intentionally!"
"Then you should speak tactfully, your character is outside, I am really afraid that you will be bullied!"
Bai Lu's mother's tone was full of worry.
"I know, Mom!"
Hug your mother, push her to the dinner table, the last meal before leaving home for military training, and it is the best choice for mother and daughter to complete it together.
Xiang Chen slowly walked out of the corridor where Bai Lu's house was located, and just now by the faint light, Xiang Chen suddenly noticed that the rental advertisement in his hand said that only female tenants were recruited, which made Xiang Chen not embarrassed.
On the third day of coming to Wanghai, you can sleep in the car or find a hotel to stay in, which is not bad. It's just that Xiang Chen walked out of the old community and looked at the city he was in, the lights of thousands of homes were like clear glass towers, which could only be described as beautiful.
Xiang Chen didn't choose to get into the car and leave, at this moment he suddenly felt like a hungry traveler, seeing the smoke curling all over the stove, but he knew that the world in his eyes had nothing to do with him.
