Chapter 13 Not Grown Up Yet
When Fang Shanmu was majestic and high-spirited, and left the hotel with Cheng Pengpeng and Hu Pan, two beauties, saying that they were going home, countless men were sideways, or jealous or envious or disdainful or angry, and even some good deeds gave Fang Shanmu a big middle finger on his back.
How did Fang Shanmu know that his actions had triggered countless men's fantasies and jealousies, he just wanted to think about it again after returning home. Cheng Pengpeng and Hu Pan noticed the dissatisfaction of the men behind them, they didn't care, and deliberately turned around and threw a wink at everyone, Cheng Pengpeng even deliberately dragged a shoe in his hand and waved it at everyone: "Men like beautiful women, beautiful women like capable men, in essence, they are all resource exchanges." ”
So angry that someone dropped the bottle on the spot.
Fang Shanmu was like a wood, unaware of what was happening behind him, and after going back, he excitedly opened his laptop and began to work on a business plan.
I did it for three hours in one breath, and when I looked up, I realized that it was already early in the morning. stretched his waist and went to the living room to drink water, but found Cheng Peng sleeping on the sofa with one bare foot, his hair was messy, and he was drooling, looking as embarrassed as he was.
Fang Shanmu was stunned, he still thought that Cheng Pengpeng had gone back, why did he stay again? Hurriedly shouted: "Hu Pan, why don't you take care of her, and sleep on the sofa again!" What kind of plastic sisterhood do you have, and no one cares about anyone?"
Hu Pan rubbed his eyes and came out of the room: "I don't know, don't talk nonsense, it's true that we are best friends, but sleeping is a very private thing, I asked her to sleep with me, but she refused, let her sleep in another room, and she didn't go." She loves to sleep on the couch, so she has to respect her choice. ”
Well, Fang Shanmu knew that the idea of the 90s was sometimes not on the same channel, and if he did, no matter how insistent the other party was, he would also ask the other party to sleep in bed. But in Hu Pan's view, not interfering with Cheng Pengpeng's freedom to sleep on the sofa is a respect for the preferences of others.
Even if it's an improper preference.
Cheng Peng woke up and turned over: "Don't make noise, it will affect my sleep." I sleep wherever I like, none of you can care!
Yes, be nosy and eat more farts, Fang Shanmu rolled his eyes, and thought about what was wrong: "Cheng Pengpeng, you said let Hu Pan come and live, no problem, I will not regret what I have promised." But I didn't agree to let you live together, it's too crowded for three people, and I hope I won't see you again from tomorrow. ”
"I want to sleep, get out!" Cheng Peng raised his hand and threw a pillow, which was in the arms of Fang Shanmu.
Fang Shanmu angrily threw the pillow to Hu Pan: "As soon as the morning dawns, you are responsible for sending her away!"
"Day by day, it's not worry-free. Hu Pan muttered quietly, smiled apologetically, nodded his head, and raised his right hand in a posture of admitting his mistake, with a very correct attitude, leaving Fang Shanmu speechless.
Fortunately, as soon as the morning dawned, not only did Cheng Peng disappear, Hu Pan didn't know where he went, Fang Shanmu was rare and quiet, and he carefully retouched his business plan, and his entrepreneurial ideas and plans became more and more mature.
For a week, Fang Shanmu went out early and returned late, making appointments with various former friends, whether they were in business or investment, and actively promoted his entrepreneurial ideas to each other, hoping to get investment. But without exception, it ended in failure, and the other party either felt that his idea was too ethereal and illusory, or felt that the feasibility was not high. In a word, if you want money, you don't want to do it.
Fang Shanmu, who was devastated, was depressed a lot, the original entrepreneurial passion quickly faded, and the whole person became listless, only to know that entrepreneurship was far less glamorous and easy than imagined. The road to entrepreneurship is a road of blood and tears, full of ridicule, blows and frustrations.
Busy with his own affairs, Fang Shanmu ignored Hu Pan's existence. Sometimes he goes out in the morning, and Hu Pan hasn't gotten up yet. When he came back in the evening, Hu Pan had already fallen asleep. Although the two lived in the same room, they did not see each other for a week.
After hitting a wall for the 88th time, Fang Shanmu began to wonder if his idea was really worthless, he was depressed and had nowhere to vent, if Sheng Chen was good, she would definitely come up with some ideas for him, and she would also get through the difficulties with him.
It's just that now it's like this, and there's no turning back. Thinking of Sheng Chen's various demands on him, Fang Shanmu shook his head again and denied his thoughts. Sheng Chen will not support him to start a business, but will only let him go to work according to her ideas, engage in a monotonous job that is repeated day after day in a static unit, gradually wear out his ambitions, and then retire.
He is not yet 40 years old, which is the golden age of men, how can he enter the old-age pension mode early? After the age of 40, men should set their sights on society and work hard to realize their personal values.
However, although there is Ling Yunzhi, there is no diamond, and his creativity is not appreciated. If it weren't for the company's 3 million, he would have had the start-up capital himself, but unfortunately, the company repeatedly urged him to compensate. He first called the 2 million in his hand, and there was still 1 million in arrears, he borrowed money from everywhere, and it took a full month to make it up.
Fang Shanmu, who owes 1 million foreign debts, is now penniless and an out-and-out loser. Another month later, Fang Shanmu was close to despair, and still no one was willing to invest in his Infinite Care LLC, so he decided to sell the house as a start-up capital. But since he is not divorced yet, Sheng Chen's consent is required to sell the house.
In the capital in winter, the leaves fell, and Fang Shanmu returned to his villa again, with mixed feelings, and there was a feeling of being separated from the world.
In the past few months, he has not had much contact with Sheng Chen, at most once or twice a month, each time it is a few short sentences, either talking about the children, or asking when to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedures.
Although they signed a divorce agreement, they never went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the legal marriage between the two still exists. The reason why he didn't make it was either because Fang Shanmu's time was not coincidental, or Sheng Chen was not available, in short, it was delayed to today.
Sheng Chen opened the door for Fang Shanmu and poured him another glass of water, she was still dressed as a home, without makeup, with a calm expression.
"Have you really decided to start a business?" Sheng Chen spoke first, brushing his hair, "You have to think about it, there is no turning back when you open the bow, your boss is not small, if you fail, you may never have a chance to turn over." ”
"I'm not yet 40 years old, my body and mind are not yet fully mature, don't always say that the boss is not small!" Fang Shanmu doesn't like to listen to Sheng Chen's ridicule in the open and secret now, Sheng Chen will hit him and belittle him as long as he has the opportunity, making him lose confidence and fighting spirit, "I won't give a successful example of starting a business in his 40s, in ancient times, Jiang Ziya only came out of the mountain in his 70s, and he made great achievements? Men and women are different." ”
"Quite self-soothing, childish as a child. Sheng Chen chuckled, "Tell you something, I went to work and got a job as an assistant." ”
"Assistant?you?" Fang Shanmu was stunned, and then laughed, "The current assistants are all post-90s girls, who would want you to be a post-70s woman, and what will you do? Word processing? Online ticket booking, business arrangement, business English, and, how much salary can you have in a month?"
Sheng Chen was not angry, and smiled faintly: "I will do what others will, and I am not stupid, I was also a famous college student back then." If it weren't for your father and son who returned to the family, my career might not be worse than yours now! Don't think that you are great and capable, when you were in school, you were not as good as me!"
Fang Shanmu didn't want to argue with Sheng Chen for a long time, so long that it was like the campus era in his previous life: "How much is it a month?"
"7000 pieces. Sheng Chen smiled generously, "The income is not high, and I have to take the subway and then the bus every day, but everything is difficult at the beginning, and you have to start from scratch to have the possibility of success, right? I believe that there is always a reward for paying, and one day, you will see my success in my career." ”
"I wish you all the best. Fang Shanmu is indeed a little impressed by Sheng Chen, he has been pampered at home for many years, and he is used to living a comfortable and prosperous life, and suddenly went out to work, earning 7,000 yuan a month, going out to take the subway and squeezing the bus, but going home is a big villa, such a huge contrast is not acceptable to ordinary people.
It is very rare for Sheng Chen to take this step.
It's not just the difficulty of adapting to life, but also the psychological difficulty. A person has been in a comfortable environment for more than ten years, and has lost his ability to bear the hardships and tribulations of life, especially over the years, he has protected Sheng Chen very well, she almost never has to worry about life, and she doesn't know what the outside world has become, and she doesn't know that in recent years, with the expansion of universities and the improvement of living standards, too many famous universities and college students studying abroad have poured into the workplace, and the competition is much fiercer than before.
In the era when Fang Shanmu and Sheng Chen graduated, although college students are no longer in short supply and no longer the best of the sky, they are also high-end talents. Now, the number of college students pouring into society is increasing year by year, and the pressure on employment is many times greater.
Sheng Chen has not worked for more than ten years, the knowledge she learned before has long been outdated, the times are progressing rapidly, and the knowledge is also being updated, so Fang Shanmu can guess what kind of problems Sheng Chen will encounter after entering the society and entering the work.
"Are you still adaptable to work?" Fang Shanmu knows what he has experienced in the workplace for more than ten years, if it weren't for the continuous learning and improvement of himself, he would have been replaced by a new generation of old people.
"Fortunately, there are difficulties and challenges, but it is also a good thing, and it is better to be able to carry it than to start your own business. Sheng Chen glanced at Fang Shanmu meaningfully, "I don't object to you selling your house, after all, it's your own house." There are two ways, one is to wait for us to go through the divorce procedures before selling, but it is estimated that it will take at least a few months to transfer the ownership. The second is to sell it within the marriage first, as long as I sign it, I can sell it, and the money belongs to you. ”
