Chapter 204: The Bottom Line (Part II)
The mansion surrounded by vegetable fields used to be regarded by Li Jiaming as a place to live, but with a lover, this is home.
Early in the morning, Li Jiaming, who was accustomed to getting up early, ran, bathed, picked green onions and coriander, cooked two bowls of rice noodles brought from his hometown, and then knocked on the door of the guest room to invite Miss Liu to breakfast. In just a few days, Liu Shasha, who rarely sleeps lazy, has never been accustomed to it, and is used to the care of her lover.
When she was a child, she was very envious of Wenwen and Wanwan, and someone even picked the thorns when she ate a piece of fish, and now it was finally her turn.
After washing up, Liu Shasha, who sat at the dining table and felt that it was very warm, quipped: "Jiaming, do you know what Lao Yang says about you?"
"Can you get into the kitchen, but can't you go to the hall?"
This is still many years ago, on my little sister's birthday, Lao Yang ridiculed Li Jiaming for being ugly. But it's not wrong, in terms of appearance, Li Jiaming is definitely ugly, but in terms of cooking skills, he is quite good. For example, the bowl of boiled rice noodles in front of you, golden poached eggs, white rice noodles, and green green onions, are full of color, flavor, and flavor.
It's so fragrant, this is the taste of rice noodles cooked in my hometown. Sniffing the familiar fragrance, Liu Shasha picked out some chili sauce chopped with peppers and stirred it in the bowl, and said with a smile: "Endangered animals."
Definitely, although it is precious, it is still an animal, and the meaning is still ugly, Li Jiaming said dissatisfiedly: "I am called a man! Do you know what Sophie said?"
"Who is Sophie?"
No matter how strong a girl is, she is also a little woman, and she will also have a careful eye, Li Jiaming, who was secretly smiling, lowered his head and ate powder, pretending not to hear the sourness in his words, and said casually: "Kyle's youngest daughter is eleven years old." That little girl was so good that at the age of eight she could buy Wanwan four goldfish and a forty-nine dollar fish tank for ten dollars. ”
The two childhood sweethearts are too familiar, and Liu Shasha, who came back to her senses, said, "You did it on purpose, right?"
"Huh"
It used to be the same, I knew everything, but I pretended not to know, and I just waited to see other people's jokes. Thinking of the second small competition when he was a child, this guy knew that he was wrong, and deliberately made himself embarrassed, Liu Shasha felt that time was really fast, and immediately dissatisfied: "Hehe, hehe, I annoy you the most with this kind of smirk!"
Li Jiaming, whose IQ has also begun to decline, looked up to the sky and laughed, "Hahaha...... , hahaha?"
"Forget it, you'd better hehe."
"Hey"
Seeing that she has been so obedient as a non-human boyfriend since she was a child, Liu Shasha, who has been pressed by him since she was a child, was very satisfied and gave him the poached egg she had eaten half-eaten.
"Reward you".
"Miss Xie Award".
"No", the smiling Liu Shasha stretched out her chopsticks and sandwiched the poached egg he hadn't moved into his bowl.
This scene is a little familiar, as if Manmei was like this before. At that time, the family was still poor, but the three siblings still occasionally had poached eggs to eat, and the little sister was greedy, and she stared at her brother after eating. Li Jiaming also cultivated poached eggs to stay aside, and when she finished eating, while the second aunt was not paying attention, half of each person was given to her and her little sister.
Seeing that her boyfriend was a little stunned, Liu Shasha could guess what he was thinking, reached over and knocked on his head, and teased: "Jiaming, you are a twenty-year-old body and a sixty-year-old head."
Childhood sweethearts are good, no matter what the other party says, the other party knows what he (she) really means.
It's not the heart but the head, Li Jiaming, who knows that his girlfriend is teasing him, laughs at himself: "The problem of the precocious breed can't be changed."
"I mean you're cunning!"
"Same, same".
Speaking of cunning and cunning, Liu Shasha remembered what happened last night, he said that the bottom line is lower than himself, what does he mean?
This matter has to be said well, although Sasha has figured it out and no longer insists on not spending a dime on herself, she still wants to be independent in her heart. It is better to rely on oneself than to rely on heaven and earth, Li Jiaming also struggled by himself, of course, he can understand the ambition of self-reliance and self-improvement, and he agrees with it very much. Even if he gave Xiaomei and Wanwan a net worth unimaginable to ordinary people, he still encouraged them to strive for themselves and engage in the careers they liked, instead of living a life of luxury.
Sasha's personality of not asking for people and not relying on people may be okay in the United States, but it is difficult to return to China for development. After pondering for a moment, Li Jiaming said euphemistically: "A gentleman is good at fake things."
Relying on her boyfriend and father, of course, you don't have to worry about business, but that doesn't reflect the value of your life.
Knowing that she would say this, the embarrassed Li Jiaming groaned again and hesitated: "Sasha, let me tell you two ugly things, you can't be angry, okay?"
"Speak".
"The ideal thing is sometimes a bad joke, and it takes many years to know where the laughter was at that time. ”
These words are very sour and mean, Liu Shasha pondered for a while, admiring her boyfriend's talent, but also dissatisfied with his old and sophisticated, but still smiled and said: "Continue."
If you don't pick or break the pus, it won't be good if it doesn't break, Li Jiaming can only bite the bullet and say: "No matter what work you do, the first thing is to create profits for the company, even if you want to start a business, you have to think about profits first, and you must not have those petty bourgeoisie."
Ideals, feelings, those things, do you really think it's that simple?"
When he first had dinner at his house, he said that he had no ideals, only goals, no feelings to help the world, only to take care of his family.
Seeing that his girlfriend was thoughtful, Li Jiaming breathed a sigh of relief, only if the love is deep, she will be responsible, but if she is too responsible, she will hold a grudge. When she was a child, Long Yan only satirized her twice, and later when she was in the same class, she often sued the black, and she sued the black in front of the whole class.
"Well, that makes sense, go ahead"
"There are not many people who can climb to the sky in one step, an opportunity is a step, and if you look down and climb up, you have to look up. ”
Thinking about it a lot, Liu Shasha is not as unreasonable as when she was a child, of course she will listen to what her boyfriend says is reasonable, but she also retorted: "Are you talking about last night? Zhao Le is obviously slapping you on the back!"
"That's right, but if you think about it the other way, he needs to find a designer, and you happen to be able to design, isn't that what you need?"
"That's the bottom line you're talking about?"
That's right, this is the bottom line that Li Jiaming said last night. Although the two of them were both children who grew up in the mountains, the difference in their backgrounds was huge, and although Liu Benqiu was not rich and wealthy at that time, at least he could give her a relatively superior environment; Li Jiaming was different, his family was surrounded by walls, and he had to do some tricks and deception.
But it's hard to say, it would damage his image in her mind.
After hesitating for a while, Li Jiaming said euphemistically: "If you distinguish people by the bottom line, there are nothing more than four types: the first is 'no bottom line and no pursuit', such as scoundrels and ruffians."
The second is 'there is a pursuit but no bottom line', and it is most likely to become a hero or a great man.
The third is 'no pursuit has a bottom line', the bottom line is very high, this can't be done and that can't be done, so that you can't do anything, don't do anything, full of metricism.
The fourth is 'there is a pursuit and a bottom line', which is a true gentleman. ”
Liu Shasha nodded again and again, and said proudly: "You are the fourth type, others say that you are a real villain, but I think you are a true gentleman."
After the award, Li Jiaming thinks that he is an alternative in the fourth kind, and the pursuit is indeed a little bit, but the bottom line is extremely low.
"Won't you, right? I see that you have never begged or admitted defeat since you were a child, and would rather fight with Chen Hesheng than back down!"
What's going on?
The sophisticated Li Jiaming smiled bitterly and said bitterly: "Hehe, you are wrong, I just begged euphemistically, and I was not so dead-skinned." You don't want to think about it, I used to have a hot fight with the township government and the county government, this uncle and that uncle shouted nonsense, do you really think my mouth is naturally sweet?
I'm just doing the work first, so I don't have to bow down when I ask for someone. ”
What?
Her boyfriend's words were like morning bells and dusk drums, which made Liu Shasha, who had not really set foot in society, suddenly wake up.
In the world, how can there be people who don't ask for help? I have smooth sailing, and in addition to hard work, I can be separated from my father's protection? I can come to Harvard for further study, and I can be separated from the willingness to be wronged by my family?
"Sasha, none of us are saints, we have a normal human conscience, and that's enough. ”
Liu Shasha nodded silently.
