Chapter 45: Introspection

I took a deep puff of my cigarette and nodded, "Okay! What do you want to talk to me about? ”

Li Mingfan pointed to the lawn and said, "Can you just walk around?" It's still too noisy here. "I actually understand what he wants to talk to me, what I don't understand is that he obviously likes Hua Jingjing, but why he is willing to be at the mercy of a very vulgar woman like Gong Jinhong. Was it coerced like me?

I walked slowly on the lawn with him, Li Mingfan took out a cigarette, lit it for himself with a "bell", also took a deep breath, and spit it out hard. Then he said, "I'm really jealous of you! I have been in love with her since I was fifteen years old, but I have never been favored by her. This world is really unfair! ”

I said: "This world is indeed very unfair, but in the matter of the relationship between men and women, there is nothing fair or unfair, love is love, no love is not love, no one can force it." You can't ask the person you love to love you as you love her, and you can't give the same love to the person who loves you. That's life! ”

Li Mingfan was silent, took a big puff of cigarette, and walked a long way before he said: "I came to you, I just want to ask you, do you love her?" ”

I really can't answer this question, let's talk about love, that's deception, and I can't say it. It's really hard for me to say I don't love it, and it doesn't fit my current identity. I had no choice but to say, "Are you qualified to ask me this?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to rob her with you, I just want her to be happy, it looks like she really loves you, I just want to know that you love her too, so I'm relieved."

I threw away the cigarette butt and said, "You love her so much, why don't you keep pursuing her?" Instead with a woman you don't love? ”

Li Mingfan's eyes dimmed, and he said, "This is what I said that the world is very unfair!" I'm very poor, and Jingjing said that I can't give her happiness, and she won't fall in love with me. So for a while, I was desperately trying to make money, just to be worthy of her one day, and as a result, I lost all my possessions and borrowed money in the stock market. People are unlucky, they have their teeth stuffed when they drink cold water, creditors come to force debts every day, and my mother was diagnosed with cancer at that time and urgently needed a lot of money for treatment. At that time, I was really desperate, and in order to raise money, I even had the heart to block the road and rob. ”

I stopped, looked at him sympathetically, and suddenly understood why he was with a woman I didn't love. He was in the same situation as me, only more unfortunate than me. I'm a free man, at least for tonight, and I don't have to look at a woman's face anymore. And he doesn't seem to be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.

Sure enough, Li Mingfan continued: "Later, Gong Jinhong found me and said that she was willing to help me pay off my debts and medical expenses, on the condition that I be her ;;;;;; A toy dog. I had no choice! With that, he let out a long sigh and took another puff on his cigarette.

I said, "You just accepted your fate?" ”

"What if you don't accept your fate? I have no hope in my life, I have nothing but to play the guitar, what do I rely on to repay that money? ”

I looked at him and felt that this depressed man did not deserve my sympathy, and it was not his fault that he encountered a natural disaster[***], but if he was at the mercy of fate without any struggle, he was really not a real man! No wonder Hua Jingjing doesn't like him.

I was about to say a few words to him, when I suddenly heard the mobile phone ringing in Li Mingfan's pocket. He immediately took it out and connected: "Hey! Be! Well! I'll come here! ”

He closed his phone, looked at me helplessly, and said, "That woman is calling me, what I asked you just now, can you answer me?" I have nothing else to ask for in this life, I just want Jingjing to have a good home and be happy. Can you tell me unequivocally that you love her? Can you make her happy? “

I said seriously: "Happiness is earned by oneself, not by others." Whether Hua Jingjing can be happy or not depends on her own efforts, and I really can't answer you. ”

Li Mingfan looked disappointed and said, "Really;;;;;;?" So it was. He seemed surprised, stunned for a moment, sighed softly, and turned away.

I looked at his desolate back, and somehow felt sorry for him. A man has been reduced to living by women, being at the mercy of women, being a woman's plaything, not fighting for his beloved, but praying for others to give her happiness, and living to this is no different from waste!

I suddenly remembered that Xu Shu's attitude towards me just now was actually very similar to the way I looked at Li Mingfan! Although those are not my intentions, what right does a person who has achieved nothing to ask for the respect of others?

I thought of the bastard who had been unenterprising in the company in the past few years, thinking that he had never met a talent and was cynical all day long, but later he changed his position with the help of a woman, so he was already satisfied and happy. Now when I see Li Mingfan, I understand that I am actually not much better than him. In the eyes of people with money, status and achievement, he and I are both rubbish, unworthy garbage.

I'm ashamed!

Tang Qian! What have you been doing all these years? No wonder Xu Shu looks down on you, no wonder Hua Jingjing always wants to bully you! It's useless to have self-esteem and high self-esteem! If you don't have the strength and status yourself, why should others respect you? This world is so cruel, if you don't work hard yourself, you won't really get the attention of others. Xu Shu's attitude just now was not wrong, I am indeed still relying on the Hua family to live, and I am living a very poor life, and I actually let Hua Jingjing force me to be a secretary without any way.

I lit another cigarette, and because of the stimulation Xu Shu gave me just now, I made me deeply reflect on my attitude towards life over the years.

I am really a contradictory person, I have always been at ease with what happens, but I can't tolerate the contempt of others. I think I can't meet my talents, but I can't work hard and work hard for myself. What's the difference between someone like me and Li Mingfan? They are all people who are looked down upon, it's ridiculous that I was still despising him just now, what qualifications do I have?

I smoked a cigarette and stood on the open lawn, thinking about it for a long, long time. The packet of cigarettes, which was already pitiful, quickly allowed me to smoke it. That night I decided, in order not to let others despise me like this again, in order not to let myself live so hopelessly again. I must work hard, I must work hard, I must start my own business, I must succeed! Gotta have status! I want everyone to respect me and not dare to insult me!

No matter how hard I try, I may not be able to surpass Xu Shu's current status, but at least I can do it so that she doesn't think I'm a person who can only live by cheating women.

I threw away the ass of the last cigarette! Breathe a sigh of relief, past tonight, no! Just tonight, I immediately submitted my resignation to Hua Jingjing, and I want to rely on my own skills to make a career, although it may be very difficult, and I may also suffer countless failures. But if I don't do it, how do I know if it's going to work?

I turned around and strode towards the villa, ready to tell Hua Jingjing that I was leaving here.

When I was about to walk to the gate, I saw the Xu Shu bodyguard named Wang Bingzhang walking towards me, he stood in front of me solemnly, and said, "Mr. Tang? ”

I said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Miss Xu wants to meet you, can you come with me?"

I sneered in my heart, she wants to see me? It's not to warn me not to pester Hua Jingjing anymore, it's okay! I was just trying to let her know that although I, Tang Qian, was a poor bastard, I was not the villain she thought would only deceive women.

So I said, "Okay, where is she?" ”

Wang Bingzhang stared at me with a pair of eagle-like eyes, he probably wanted to break his head and didn't understand why Xu Shu, a boy I met for the first time, suddenly wanted to meet.

But he has the qualities of a soldier, and it is his habit to obey orders, he wrenched his face and said, "Please follow me!" ”

I followed him through a small door in the villa, up a staircase to the third floor, through a long carpeted hallway, to a door.

Wang Bingzhang shouted through the door: "Miss Xu! Mr. Tang is here! ”

Xu Shu's voice came from inside: "Let him come in!" ”

Wang Bingzhang gently pushed the door open and made a gesture of invitation to me.

I walked in with a smile as calm as water.

This is a large study, pure European style, surrounded by high bookshelves, filled with tens of thousands of books of all kinds, there is a movable ladder stopped in front of the bookshelf on the west side, there is a huge desk in the middle of the study, made of mahogany, very elegant, Xu Shu, who is so beautiful that people can't look at it, sits on the chair behind the desk.

When Xu Shu saw me coming in, he stood up, waved his hand to Wang Bingzhang to close the door, and then said to me with a smile: "Please sit down, Mr. Tang!" ”
