Chapter 3: Meet the Calamity
Mengzhen returned home with a happy pace, and couldn't wait to open the bag that Guo Lao gave him, which contained an agreement to sign with the customer, as well as a statement.
"This old man, there are still a lot of rules. Mengzhen looked at the rules above and laughed.
There aren't many rules, just three. The first is to reject dreams that you think are powerless or meaningless, the second is to witness the process of realizing your dreams, and finally, the cost must not be too high.
At the bottom of this page there is also a new address, and when she saw this, Mengzhen exhaled with a smile and said to herself, "I will stick to this job." ”
The time also came to eleven o'clock in the evening, and Dream really packed up the file bag, and suddenly thought that he had forgotten to ask his parents about it, so he patted his head regretfully.
"Looks like I'm going to have to go to the clinic again tomorrow, but if the old man didn't lie to me, how did he find out that those people might be my parents?"
With such doubts, Mengzhen lay on the bed and quickly fell asleep, this was the most comfortable night he slept on, maybe because of his new job, or maybe it was news about his parents, in short, for him, tomorrow will start another part of his life.
In the morning, Mengzhen got up early, and after a simple breakfast, he took a taxi, urging the driver to come to the clinic as soon as possible, but the driver was not familiar with this place, and he made several mistakes before arriving at his destination. Mengzhen got out of the car a little angrily, after all, he spent some extra fare because he took the wrong road.
However, when he came to the clinic, he found that the door was closed and locked from the outside.
"This old man is out of the house, and he got up so early?"
was puzzled, and an aunt who had been in the early shop next to her shouted to Mengzhen: "Eh, young man, are you the child who came with Uncle Guo yesterday?"
"yes, where did he go?" asked Yumejin anxiously.
"He left last night, almost midnight, I couldn't sleep at that time, I came out to stretch, and I accidentally saw Uncle Guo walking out with a bunch of luggage and locking the door. Aunt said as she twisted her thick waist.
Meng Zhen took a few steps back, his expression was very solemn, and then asked seriously, "Then, will he come back?"
"I don't know. The aunt shook her head blankly.
"Do you know where he went?"
"I'm not a fairy, where do I know, although I know him, I don't know him very well. She still had the same look on her face.
Hearing this, Mengzhen completely lost his patience, he didn't expect this old man to leave overnight, he didn't feel like he would leave when he was in the clinic yesterday, even if he retired, he wouldn't be in such a hurry. Suddenly saying goodbye without saying goodbye made him a little difficult to accept.
Of course, it was futile to continue to wait, and then, Mengzhen came to the address he saw last night with some anticipation, which was a new storefront, and the sign said Dream House four big words. It's not far from the city, and although it's not as prosperous as the city center, it's really much better than the clinic in the backwoods, of course, Guo Lao is not here.
At this time, Mengzhen thought of the last thing that Guo Lao said last night to be completed, looked at the scene in front of him, and showed a shallow smile.
"You still say retirement, retirement. He said lightly.
Pushing open the glass door, Mengzhen took a look at the situation in the house, it was similar to the previous clinic, the place was not big but there was nothing missing, and what was even more incredible was that there was a business license. Mengzhen put his backpack on the seat, looked in the direction of the door, and thought that he had never had entrepreneurial experience, and now he actually wanted to run a shop, and he instantly felt pressure.
While pondering, a fashionably dressed young girl pulled a suitcase and pushed the door in, and glanced at Meng Zhen, and this glance suddenly made Meng Zhen remember the moment when he jumped off the bridge.
"I rely on you! You calamity caused me to be hospitalized. He shouted in surprise.
"What do you mean, have we met?" she asked, a little puzzled.
"Of course you don't know me, and you jumped off the bridge without looking back. ”
The girl's eyes widened suddenly, and she asked with a little surprise: "Oh, it's you, you were soaked all over at that time, and I didn't dare to stay long so I didn't recognize you." ”
"What do you mean?"
"I brought you ashore, and you were unconscious. ”
"What? You brought me ashore, how could it be. Mengzhen couldn't help but laugh, "How can you, a person who is about to commit suicide, think about saving others?"
The girl pouted, and said very easily: "Who said I was going to kill myself, I just like extreme sports, and I jumped off that bridge several times." ”
He rubbed his ears and asked in surprise: "Are you not going to commit suicide?" just to play the excitement and cause me to be hospitalized, I thought I was acting bravely because of righteousness, hey, you are too good at playing, can you make this kind of joke casually?"
The girl was embarrassed and said sorry.
"Because you almost died, do you know, there is no hint at all, just stand outside the railing, even a fool will think that you are going to commit suicide, it is good luck to lose me, if you really die, can you afford to be responsible?!"
The more Mengzhen spoke, the more excited she became, and the girl's mood became more and more depressed, holding the corners of her clothes with both hands, and then a line of tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing this scene, Meng Zhen also took a deep breath to calm himself down, and hurriedly explained: "Okay, I'm not going to blame you, it's just that this kind of thing is dangerous for you and others, right, don't cry." ”
After saying that, Mengzhen also took out a piece of toilet paper from his pocket and handed it to her.
The girl didn't take the toilet paper, but whispered, "I won't do anything like this in the future." ”
"Forget it, what's the matter with you here?" asked Meng Zhen curiously, still skeptical of the girl's explanation.
"I'm here for work. The girl gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand, and said with some ease, "Isn't there a need for an assistant here?"
"Where did you see that? I'm here for the first time today, and you've been here for less than two minutes before you come in. Mengzhen laughed embarrassedly.
The girl took out her phone, and there was a text message asking her to come here today as an assistant.
"Did someone order you to come here?" asked Mengzhen tentatively.
The girl hesitated, shook her head, and said, "I volunteered." ”
"Voluntary?" Mengzhen thought for a moment, in this case, it was basically impossible for anyone other than Guo Lao or someone who was in contact with Guo Lao, and continued to ask, "Is there an old man who has contacted you before?"
The girl still didn't speak.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it, do you know what this store does?"
"Well, the house of dreams, helping others make their dreams come true. The girl nodded in affirmation.
"Do you think this kind of work has a future? Dream really asked a little uneasy.
"Whether there is a future or not depends on your own efforts. ”
"Let's get to know each other. Mengzhen stretched out his hand, "My name is Mengzhen, and my dreams come true." ”
"An Xiran. The girl smiled and shook Mengzhen's hand.
When he first touched her hand, Mengzhen suddenly felt his heart beat faster and his back was hot, this was not the feeling of first love, just because it was the first time he touched a girl's hand. When I was a child, I never held hands with other little girls in the orphanage, and I could only watch other children play happily together.
"What's wrong with you?" An Xiran asked as he looked at Meng Zhen, whose face was flushed.
"It's okay, your name is pretty nice. Mengzhen retracted his hand a little shyly.
"Is it the first time you've shaken hands with a girl?"
"Pretty much. ”
Hearing this, An Xiran sat on the chair very indifferently, and then said happily: "Then where do we start working?"
And Mengzhen was still immersed in the feeling of shaking hands just now, and was asked by An Xiran for a long time before he reacted, and replied with some embarrassment: "I think, we should promote ourselves on the Internet, just wait like this, and we may not be able to make a deal for the rest of our lives." ”
"You're right. ”
"But I don't know much about computers, can you?"
An Xiran happily took out the computer from the suitcase and got busy. Mengzhen looked at the computer in the room, and then looked at An Xiran's own, and felt that the gap was a bit big.
I have to say that An Xiran is really good at this aspect, and she made a webpage by herself to introduce the various characteristics of the dream house, and in the end there was only the advertising slogan, she walked to Mengzhen's side and asked, "Have you thought about the advertising slogan?"
"Won't you be done with it together?"
"I can't just think about it myself, you can think about it too. ”
"I don't have any other ideas, if you can't use the simplest, such as what dreams do you have, welcome to the dream house, we sincerely serve you and do our best to help you achieve your dreams. After Meng Zhen finished speaking, he made a vomiting expression.
An Xiran also smiled shyly, but did not refute, but typed what Mengzhen said just now on the computer screen word for word.
"I'm dripping, you really use this, this advertisement is really dirty. ”
"It doesn't matter, the simpler it is, the more it shows that we are sincere. ”
After making all the preparations, Meng Zhen sat on the chair bored and played with his mobile phone, and at the same time secretly observed An Xiran's every move, in his heart, such a beautiful girl is also the first time to get in close contact, although she is not clear about her background, but judging from the smell of perfume emanating from her whole body, the family background must be very good.
"Are you peeking at me?" An Xiran asked coldly?
"No, I don't. Mengzhen hurriedly shifted his gaze to the screen of his phone.
"Nonsense, you didn't move your fingers, you didn't wear headphones, you didn't watch videos or type games, so what are you doing with your phone?" she asked in a coquettish tone.
"Yo, you're so meticulously observed, it's you peeking at me, you don't need to explain, the explanation is that you peeked at me, and I thought you were a very reserved girl, I didn't think it was still a little feminine, haha. ”
"Nasty, if you weren't peeking at me, how could I be peeking at you?"
The corners of Mengzhen's mouth rose, but he didn't laugh out loud, and then said, "Okay, let's see if anyone is interested in us here." ”
"I set up an email address, if someone is interested in us, they will send an email, but you can't just sit there and do a little bit of help, go outside and get some business. An Xiran looked at him with sincere eyes.
Meng Zhen looked at An Xiran again, and the feeling of shaking hands just now spread all over his body again, and in order to get rid of this feeling as soon as possible, he immediately got up and walked outside the house.
An Xiran supported his cheek with his left hand, looked at his back and smiled sweetly.
Walking outside, of course, Mengzhen didn't think about shouting on the street like a special offer to realize a dream or something like that, but it was just a little perfunctory. And now he no longer thinks about this problem on An Xiran, it is rare to be able to work with a beautiful young lady that many people can't ask for.
Gradually, a cold wind blew, and snowflakes began to fall from the gray sky.
"This weather forecast is getting more and more unreliable. Mengzhen shuddered and hurried back to the house, "It's still warm inside." ”
"Asked you to go out and do some work, why did you run back again. An Xiran said with a smile.
"You don't feel sorry for me on such a cold day. ”
"You've soaked in ice water, do you care about the weather?"
"You still say!" Mengzhen grimaced, then went straight to the bathroom and washed his face.
As a result, as soon as he came out after washing, he saw a young man with scattered snow on his shoulders walking in, and the man looked at An Xiran, who was sitting dignified, with an expectant expression, and asked kindly: "I heard that you can help others realize their dreams here." ”
Mengzhen looked at this young man, although he looked very young in appearance, but this sloppy beard didn't pay much attention to his appearance at a glance, if he dressed up a little, it was a pity, of course, the most surprising thing for him was that he had his first customer so soon.
"Well, what do you need help with?" An Xiran asked very kindly.
"It's nothing, I just hope to catch up with my goddess. The man looked down embarrassedly and grinned.
Mengzhen couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, just such a sloppy person, what can a goddess look like, so he stood behind and asked, "Do you have a picture of your goddess?"
"Oh, yes. After speaking, he took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to An Xiran, and at the same time said very sincerely: "I haven't started chasing her yet, I don't know how to chase her, so I hope you can help me, as much as you want." ”
"How much money can you have?" Meng Zhen stared at the man's eyes with suspicion, but the person didn't seem to be nervous at all, as if he had confidence in Meng Zhen and them.
An Xiran picked up the photo and glanced at it, laughed "poof", then covered his mouth with one hand, and his laughing body trembled slightly.
This aroused Mengzhen's interest, and he also walked in front of An Xiran, took the photo and glanced at it, and his pupils suddenly dilated a lot.
