Chapter 72: An Unexpected Meeting

After I finished asking Li Xiaoyun to have a treat, she looked at me again with tears and laughter, and said to me for a while: "Then I'll treat you." ”

I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, this originally embarrassing thing was resolved by my own cheekiness, and after thinking about it, I said to Li Xiaoyun again: "Don't tell your parents that I don't have the money to invite you to dinner when you go back, if this matter reaches my parents' ears, the impact will be very bad!" ”

"Don't worry, if you don't know what to say, you should invite a friend to dinner!" Li Xiaoyun said very cheerfully.

I gave Li Xiaoyun a thumbs up and said, "Girl, your consciousness is really good, I appreciate you." ”

"Alas! It's not that I'm highly conscious, but I really can't do anything about it! You said that the two of us went on a blind date, and you didn't have the money to pay for it, so it must be me! Li Xiaoyun sighed with a smile.

Li Xiaoyun was really a little embarrassed when she said this, and said embarrassedly: "I heard that you will definitely meet one or two strange people on the blind date, and you will meet me, right?" ”

"If you want to say weird, you must be the best."

I looked at Li Xiaoyun's wallet on the table, and then said something even more bizarre: "You see we all know the bottom here, or you can be a good person to the end, I have been really short of money to spend recently, you can borrow some, and when I find a job, I will pay you back when I get my salary, it will definitely not be too long, 2 months at most." ”

"How much to borrow?"

"1000."

Li Xiaoyun immediately ordered 1,000 yuan in cash from his wallet and handed it to me, I said "thank you" and accepted it cheekily again.

About half an hour later, Li Xiaoyun and I finished dinner, and finally I paid the bill with the 1,000 yuan I borrowed from her, of course, this is a good result, and it can be regarded as I invited her to dinner, because I will definitely return the 1,000 yuan I borrowed.

In the night, Li Xiaoyun and I stood at the door of the coffee shop, and I asked her, "How did you get here?" ”

"Take a taxi."

"Then I'll send you back."

Li Xiaoyun shook his head and said, "No need, my house is not far from here, and it is very convenient to take a taxi." ”

I didn't insist, because I understood that the average woman refused the man's request to send her back, proving that she was not satisfied with the blind date.

Of course, I can understand Li Xiaoyun, it is strange that she wants to be satisfied, after all, she has reached the age of a female marriage, and she still has to consider the man's economic foundation.

Although I understand that I am still a little disappointed, because pure love has become less and less common in this era where everything needs money to prove, or even extinction.

After a little silence, I said to Li Xiaoyun: "Then you can leave me a phone number, so that I can contact you when I pay you back in the future." ”

Li Xiaoyun nodded and gave me his number, I wrote down the number, smiled and said to Li Xiaoyun: "I hope this blind date experience did not leave a shadow on you." ”

"No, I think you're interesting, at least we're not bored at all when we get along."

I joked and said, "Alas! When you say that, I am even more ashamed, as if there is no other place to be desirable except to be able to laugh. ”

"Everyone has something to offer, it just takes time to find out, but you, you really have to work hard, after so many kisses, you are the only ......one" Li Xiaoyun suddenly realized something and didn't say any more.

But I know, she must have said that I am the only one, at the age of 26, who still has no savings and no job.

……

After the blind date, I drove the soon-to-be-scrapped Santana 2000 to the river opposite the Xuanwu Market, sitting alone on the lawn by the river, smoking a little dullly, and feeling depressed for a while, this depression stems from my delay in getting my own life.

The water in the moat flowed along the autumn breeze to the east of the city in the night, and I looked at it blankly, and gradually felt that although my body was in the city, it was more like a bystander, and the lights of the thousands of homes here had nothing to do with me at all.

I thought of Fang Yuan and Yan Yan and Jian Wei and Xiang Chen, these four people almost constituted all the memories of my college life, maybe they were all doing well at the moment.

As I lay on the grass, I looked at the starry sky with a somewhat stupid expression, and suddenly I felt empty.

"Zhaoyang, if you don't go home after the blind date, what are you doing here alone?" Mom's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

I was startled, sat up from the lawn, looked at it in a daze, and asked for a while, "Mom, why did you come with me?" ”

"I followed you when you entered the coffee shop, and Xiaoyun's mother and I sat at the table behind you."

Mom's words made my heart beat for a while, if she had been sitting behind us, wouldn't she have heard the conversation I had with Li Xiaoyun just now!

I asked, "Didn't you say we'd be alone, why are you still following?" ”

My mother ignored my questioning, but said to me with a calm face: "You, an unreliable son, did you borrow money from other girls when you were on a blind date?" ”

"Damn, I really don't have any money!" I sighed with confidence.

My mother sat down next to me, and instead of getting angry, she asked me in a relaxed tone, "You tell my mother, how have you spent all these years in Suzhou?" ”

It took me a long time to answer, "It's just so unreliable...... Mom, I'm really not a good son, I've always worried you and Daddy all these years! ”

"People make some mistakes when they are young, just correct them, and the days will be long."

"Hmm." I nodded heavily.

My mother hugged me and smiled, and said, "I'll persuade your dad to arrange a job for you later, and you will stay by our side in the future." ”

"Daddy really doesn't want to forget it, I'll find it myself, and correcting my mistakes starts with finding a job."

"He's old-fashioned, if his son doesn't help, who will he help!"

I didn't have the words, and I couldn't figure out whether it was right or wrong to ask my dad to help me find a job.

After a long time, I finally said, "Mom, you go back first, I want to be alone for a while." ”

"Okay, but I need to ask you something before I leave."

"Just ask."

"What do you think of Xiao Yun, do you want to get along with her?"

I thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about the matter of dealing with the object later, nothing is stable now." ”

"You were coaxed like this after only one kiss?"

I wiped my face and lay back on the grass without saying a word, I admit that I was a little cowardly, but it was not because of the blind date itself, but because of my own situation.

I realized that although I had said goodbye to Suzhou for a short time, I was even more at a loss and at a loss for my future.

……

This night, I stayed alone by the river for a long time, and I thought a lot, but I didn't come up with any idea, and the future is good or bad is not something that can be decided by just thinking about it.

I didn't want to go home, I still drove the car, wandering in Xuzhou, the city where my life began, looking at the high-rise buildings outside the car window, and suddenly remembered that I also had ambitions, I wanted to be an excellent entrepreneur, not only to realize my own value, but also to help more people realize their self-worth.

Later, I don't know which day I forgot this great wish, went to learn the guitar, and since then I have been playing the guitar and singing all the things in the world but I can't sing a complete love, so I don't want to think about the desire of the entrepreneur!

People, either succeed, or settle for the status quo, or degenerate, my little back, in the end is so damn degenerate, but I often can't remember how I fell and when I started!

When depravity became a habit, I gradually became less ashamed, so I went to the game city again, bought a small basket of game currency, and started a fighting game with a child who looked like a junior high school student.

I took a cigarette and manipulated the Yagami in the game console with a light kick.,After receiving a heavy hand.,And then a sunflower three-style combo.,Finally, I exploded an eight-child girl.,Instantly KO the role of the child.。

The child blushed and looked at me and didn't dare to speak, which made me feel a sense of invincible loneliness in my heart, and then I laughed myself, I actually fell into a game to find the so-called sense of save.

I threw the child a game currency and motioned him to continue, the child turned sad into joy and threw the game currency into the game console, so the two fought again, and in the child's screams, I slapped the game console "pop".

"Zhaoyang, you're playing a good game!" A woman's voice sounded behind me.

I was so focused on the game that I didn't pay attention to it for a while, and suddenly realized how anyone in the arcade could know my name, and then I suddenly turned around and found Mi Cai standing behind me.

I looked at Mi Cai stupidly, thinking that I was dreaming, and I thought that I was still in Suzhou, and the child took the opportunity to put a big move and killed the character in my game!
