"Are you Fang Shanmu?" the girl glanced at Fang Shanmu up and down, with a surprised expression, "Are you dressed up to engage in performance art or street art?" Doesn't it mean that you are the vice president of the company, no, like a third-rate painter who doesn't mix well. And it doesn't look like an avatar, with a scruffy beard, at least 10 years older...... Are you 40 or 50?"

Fang Shanmu was a little impatient: "You don't care how old I am? I'm here to rent a house, not to go on a blind date." ”

"I really have to ask clearly, or I really can't rent you, and I won't rent it no matter how much I give...... Anyway, I'm not short of money, it's because of a friend's introduction that I can't wipe my face. Cheng Pengpeng smiled contemptuously, the corners of his mouth curved into a very good-looking arc, quite a bit of bad meaning, "My principle of renting a house is that men over 50 years old and women over 40 years old do not rent! Newly graduated college students, regardless of men and women, do not rent! If you change jobs more than three times a year, you will not rent!"

"It's all weird reasons, you don't care who other people are, as long as you can afford the rent. Fang Shanmu muttered, thinking that if it wasn't for Gu Hao's introduction, he wouldn't be too lazy to deal with Cheng Pengpeng. At first glance, he is a type of person who has been spoiled since he was a child, his family is rich, he looks good, he has always enjoyed the feeling of the stars holding the moon, he has never suffered any grievances, his personality is perverse and selfish, and he has developed a self-centered character in everything.

If it had been before, Fang Shanmu would have turned around and left, so he didn't want to say a word more to a girl born in the 90s like Cheng Pengpeng, who was too self-righteous, but now he has nowhere to go, and it's night, so he doesn't want to go to the hotel, so he had to endure it and handed over his ID card: "I haven't shaved for a few days, and I look a little old." Chronological age you see for yourself......"

"78 years, this year...... 38 years old, not yet 40 years old, a little younger, but for the sake of my friend's face, forget it, I reluctantly accept you. Cheng Pengpeng compared the ID photo with Fang Shanmu himself, and suddenly smiled, "But don't say it, you yourself are much older than on your ID card, but you are more masculine." At first glance, the image of the beard was very poor, and after a few more glances, I felt that it was very vicissitudes and very manly. In fact, I also have a principle of not dealing with men under the age of 40. For you, an exception. ”

"Thank you, thank you!" Fang Shanmu exaggerated his tone and wanted to end the conversation, "I'm honored to be recognized by you, can I view the house now?"

"What's the hurry, the house is here, and I can't run. Cheng Peng squinted his eyes, "I thought that men would mature a little bit after the age of 35, but I didn't expect that they were as naïve as they were in their 20s." Alas, it is said that the post-90s generation of men is not good, and now it seems that the last generation of men is not very good, they are almost 40 years old, and they are still in such a hurry, obediently, can only the post-80s have hope?"

Fang Shanmu ignored Cheng Pengpeng's complaints and followed her upstairs. Cheng Pengpeng, who is one meter six or seven, has a thin waist and long legs, and when he goes upstairs, his waist twists, his skirt is flying, and his ponytail swings from side to side, which is both youthful and sexy.

The house is on the third floor, and Cheng Peng forgot to bring the elevator card, so the two of them can only take the stairs. Fang Shanmu didn't care about complaining about her sloppiness.

"Where do you seem to have gone to retreat? Why are you so sloppy?" Cheng Pengpeng suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked curious, "Did you go somewhere to build a team, locked in the deep mountains and old forests, no electricity and no signal, isolated from the world, God, it's too interesting and challenging...... Remember to call me next time. ”

Fang Shanmu was thinking about something, he stopped his steps, and bumped into Cheng Pengpeng's body, he raised his hands in embarrassment: "It wasn't intentional, I'm sorry, don't think about it." ”

"What a big deal, even if you do it on purpose, what's the matter? Don't think that touching me means that you are getting cheap, put away your antique thoughts, in the eyes of the post-90s, your post-70s ideas are all cultural relics-level traditions. Cheng Peng grinned, "Uncle, you remember, if a girl born in the 90s calls you uncle, it means that you are still attractive." Call you master, and you will be swept into the corner of history, so don't have any abnormal thoughts. ”

"Don't worry, you call me uncle, I don't have any thoughts about you, whether it's normal or not. Fang Shanmu laughed angrily, "Team building, yes, yes, it's team building, next time I go, I will definitely call you, I'm afraid you don't have enough guts." Also, even if you have the guts to go, you may not be able to get in or out. ”

"Sounds mysterious, interesting, isn't it like a team building like survival in the wilderness? Great, next time you must call me, if you don't call me, I'll sweep you away." Cheng Pengpeng didn't think much about it, he was excited, and opened the door, "Uncle, the furniture is readily available, and it is hardcover, three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms, 130 square meters, renting you 7,000 yuan a month, or a high-end community within the fourth ring road, it is really a friendly price." ”

The house is very large, three bedrooms, the living room and dining room are connected, the lighting is also very good, it is indeed a high-end residence in the fourth ring road, Fang Shanmu is very satisfied: "Okay, rent, sign a one-year contract first, pay half a year's rent, no problem, right?"

"I finally have a bit of the charm of a mature man, I like a cheerful man, deal. Cheng Pengpeng took out a piece of paper, signed it and handed it to Fang Shanmu, "Since it was introduced by a friend, it saves the process of testing and understanding." The agreement is signed, the payment is made, and the house is yours. But don't blame me for being too talkative, uncle, you must be married at this age, why do you want to come out to live, do you want to raise a mistress?"

…… It was late at night, but Fang Shanmu couldn't fall asleep over and over, not because Cheng Pengpeng lived in another room, but in the past ten days, his life has undergone earth-shaking changes, from the peak to the bottom.

It's so much more exciting than riding a roller coaster!

Sometimes I think about it, life is like an undulating mountain road rather than a straight highway, just like the development of the times, the whole is a trend of rushing forward, but there will also be dangerous shoals and sharp bends. Someone did an experiment where two balls started at the same time, and the balls on a straight course were a few points slower than those on an undulating course.

Because it went straight ahead, it lacked the impact of falling to the bottom and rushing to the top.

He could only comfort himself like this, Fang Shanmu turned over and got up to drink water. The water dispenser was in the living room, he took a glass of water, was stunned for a moment, and then sobered up a little, realizing that he was not at home, but in Room 301, Building 3, Houfu Community, which he rented.

He took a sip of water, scalded it, and subconsciously threw the water glass, only to remember that Sheng Chen always prepared a transparent glass kettle in the past, and there was always a cool white open in it, and he could pour water to drink at any time.

In fact...... Sheng Chen still has many advantages, that is, he is too stubborn and self-righteous, Fang Shanmu just wanted to miss Sheng Chen's goodness, but he was suppressed back by the anger in his heart - if it wasn't for her unreasonable trouble, he would not have ended up with a mistake in his work that caused the company to suffer huge losses. If it weren't for the company's huge losses, the chairman would not have been angry and would have suspended him for reflection. If it weren't for the suspension and reflection, he wouldn't have gone to Xishan to relax.

If it weren't for going to Xishan to relax, there would be no tragic experience of almost dying in the deep mountains and old forests! The source of everything is Sheng Chen's fault, the most annoying thing is that Sheng Chen doesn't care about his life or death, and dares to file for divorce first, she is a housewife, relying on his income to support the family, and she still has the courage to divorce?

Fang Shanmu thought angrily, no, he must not forgive her, and he must resolutely divorce! He will be swept out of the house by Sheng Chen, it is too faceless, but he is also a dignified vice president, with an annual income of more than 2 million and options, he has not cheated on him, he has not changed his mind regardless of his family, Sheng Chen still dares to dislike him, he is still a young man who can be at her mercy?

He is already a middle-aged man who is both mature and successful!

Fang Shanmu was suddenly stunned again, such an indignant thought just now seemed that he was not stable and generous enough, and he was still a little naïve and impulsive.

After drinking the water, he suddenly lost his sleepiness, Fang Shanmu turned around and sat on the sofa, ready to be in a daze for a while. Outside the window, the night was thick, and the quartz clock on the wall showed that it was half past one in the morning.

The dawn is still early, the night is long, now I think about it, I don't know how to survive a few days in the deep mountains and old forests, a person, a stone as a pillow, the grass as a bed, accompanied by the bleak wind and cold rain to sleep, the sound of wind and rain, the sound of insects and unknown strange sounds, one after another like a symphony of despair.

It's quiet now, but it's not used to it.

After losing contact for so many days, Sheng Chen really didn't worry about where he went, was there any danger? From falling in love in college, to staying in the capital together after graduating from college, and then getting married, they have known each other for nearly 20 years and have been together for more than 15 years, and they are so familiar with each other that there is no space and distance, like a person.

But the more familiar it is, the more strange it is, and the most familiar stranger is not wrong at all. The more familiar he was, the more Fang Shanmu felt that he didn't know Sheng Chen. Especially after the child went to school, she was free, pondering his movements every day, sending WeChat calls and videos, and various forms of checks, so that he never tired of it, and was ridiculed by his colleagues and ridiculed by his leaders.

Even once when he was having dinner with the leader, Sheng Chen made more than a dozen phone calls in just half an hour, repeating the same sentence every time: "When will you go home?"

He was disgraced, and in the leader's subtle and meaningful smile, he was eager to find a crack in the ground to get into. Later, the leader thoughtfully asked him to go first, he turned off his mobile phone, and continued to accompany the leader to eat. It's an important negotiation, how can he leave in the middle of the process? Not to mention that he is the person in charge of the project!

As a result, after returning home, Sheng Chen locked him out of the door, knocked on the door and didn't open it, didn't reply to WeChat, didn't answer the phone, he went back to the company in a fit of anger.

"Get up, you sit on my feet. ”

Fang Shanmu's memories were interrupted by Cheng Pengpeng's interruption, he jumped up in panic, and when he looked closely, he found that there was a person lying on the sofa, with a graceful and slender waist and long legs...... It's Cheng Pengpeng!
