Chapter 45 Debt Collection
"Okay, Roger. ”
This was the last message Li Wen received from the "I want you to fire" studio.
After that, no matter what message Li Wen sent, the chat page prompted "You have been blocked by the other party." ”
It is obvious that Li Wen was deceived, and he was deceived very badly.
In order to complete the list assigned by the studio on time, Li Wen coded words day and night, 20,000 words a day, and 40,000 words at most.
It's good now, a sentence of "you have been blocked by the other party" will wipe out all of Li Wen's efforts. If the fraudster is hateful, then the other party's fraudulent talent is even more hateful than the fraudster's hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand times.
It is very likely that because of the other party's behavior, the Chinese literary world will lose a heavyweight talent.
"What can I do now?" Li Wen cried out, "I'm too difficult." ”
There was a knock on the door, Li Wen came to the door and opened the door with great impatience, and after seeing that it was Xiaomeng, Li Wen's previous anger dissipated, and was replaced by a pleasant smile.
"I want you to do me a favor. ”
Xiaomeng took a puff of his cigarette and spit out the smoke casually.
"You're not going to let me help you get through the sewers again, are you?"
Li Wen still remembers the trouble that happened last time because of the "sewer", and when he thought about it, the goosebumps on his body fell to the ground.
"No, I wanted you to help me get something. Xiaomeng's face always had a little sadness, but for some reason, it was precisely because of this state that no matter what she asked, Li Wen would agree.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Xiaomeng asked Li Wen to take off his clothes and run around the street now, Li Wen would not hesitate to complete all this at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
"Take what?"
"My ex-boyfriend owes me some money, and I want you to help me get it back, is that okay?" Xiaomeng threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and then ran back a handful of hair with his hand, "If you don't want to go, I understand." ”
Xiao Meng turned around and was about to leave, and when Li Wen was about to speak, Xiao Meng stopped and looked back at Li Wen, "By the way, thank you for the rent you helped me pay last time." ”
"I didn't say I didn't want to, I was at home for the past few days, just enough to go out for a walk. Li Wen finished speaking quickly, for fear that Xiaomeng would never hear it again if he left.
"Okay, thanks, I'll send you the address later. ”
After Xiaomeng left, Li Wen rushed to Xiaomeng's ex-boyfriend's residence.
"Trouble open the door. Li Wen said.
"Who!"
"Check the water meter. ”
The door to the room opened, and a man in pajamas, too thin to hold up his pajamas, appeared in front of Li Wen.
"Hurry up, I'm still busy here. The scrawny man was visibly displeased.
In fact, "checking the water meter" was just an excuse that Li Wen made up casually temporarily, but he didn't expect that someone would believe such a simple excuse, and he would also put him in, which is really stupid and wise.
After entering the door, Li Wen locked the door of the room, and the thin man returned to the computer to sit down, QQ messages kept ringing, and the thin man replied to the message quickly, and the speed of typing simply flew up.
Li Wen came behind the thin man lightly, originally planning to salute first, scare the thin man first, and then say something nice to the thin man, so that the thin man would naturally hand over the money owed to Xiaomeng obediently.
"I ......" Li Wen opened his mouth to speak when he was about to speak, and he could suddenly see the QQ nickname on the thin man's computer screen, and Li Wen could no longer be calm.
"I want you to fire the studio", as soon as he saw this name, Li Wen could feel the malice that emerged from the depths of his heart.
"Aren't you checking the water meter, what are you doing standing here?" the thin man just glanced back at Li Wen, and then continued to type and reply to the chat partner, "If you stand here again, I will have to complain about you." ”
"You're the head of your fire studio, right?"
"yes, what's wrong. ”
The thin man realized that something was wrong, and looked back at Li Wen with a surprised gaze, "Is this what you, a person who checks the water meter, should worry about?"
"My QQ name is Useless Scholar, do you think this is not something I should worry about?"
"Useless scholar, I don't care what kind of scholar you are...... Wait a minute, are you?"
The thin man looked at Li Wen, and when he saw Li Wen's black face, the thin man began to get nervous, and when he was about to get up, Li Wen pressed the thin man's shoulder hard, and the thin man sat on the chair and couldn't move.
At the same time, Li Wen pinched the thin man's shoulder hard, and the thin man's face was painful, and he screamed.
"What the hell are you going to do?" cried the thin man.
"What I want is very simple, give me my money back. ”
"Here you go, okay. ”
"Not only that, but you also have to return the money you owe to Xiaomeng. ”
"Little Dream, I owe Little Dream, what does it have to do with you?" the thin man shouted, "It's okay to pay you back, but I hope I don't meddle in my affairs, let alone get an inch." ”
"I guess, I'm not the first to be deceived, right?" the corners of Li Wen's mouth raised slightly, but his face showed no kindness.
"I said, I can pay you back, but my affair with Xiaomeng has nothing to do with you. ”
As soon as the thin man finished speaking, Li Wen turned the thin man's swivel chair and put his face in front of the thin man, and both of them could feel each other's breath. However, in comparison, the thin man was significantly more nervous, and at this moment, if there was a physical altercation, the thin man had no chance of winning.
"Please repeat what you just said. Li Wen glared at the thin man, without even blinking his eyelids.
"I ......" the thin man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the thin man could not continue to say his words, because he could predict that if he finished the rest of the part, what awaited him would be a revenge with a combination of punches and kicks.
"What are you?" Li Wen stood up straight, clenched his fists, rubbed his hands back and forth, and his knuckles made a "crackling" sound.
"Brother, I was wrong, I'll give you all the money, okay?"
The thin man shook his head helplessly, after all, when he came out to mix, he always had to pay it back. Since the first time he cheated the manuscript, the thin man had thought that there would be such a result today.
Li Wen left with his manuscript fee and the 10,000 yuan that the thin man owed to Xiaomeng, and after leaving the thin man's apartment, Li Wen finally relaxed.
Whether it was a verbal threat to the thin man, or pretending to be a "water meter" before, it was beyond the original Li Wen's psychological tolerance, and it was completely supported by Kebo's cheekiness.
"Congratulations, you have completed the [Punish Evil and Promote Good] achievement, which increases the progress of the task by 3%, and the total progress by 3%. ”
"Does this add to the progress of the mission?" Li Wen felt a little inexplicable.
"Of course, no matter what you do, it's likely to increase your mission progress. Of course, the premise is that you are doing all this justly, legally, understand?", the system reminds warmly in the form of a narration.
"That's right. ”
Because of the manuscript fee, Li Wen's waist pole has also hardened a lot, but it is not a coincidence, when Li Wen was waiting for the bus on the street, a nanny car stopped next to Li Wen.
The car door opened, and the proprietress of the café got out of the car, came to Li Wen, and scolded with her thick waist, "You kid, if you don't hurry up and save money to pay me back, what are you still hanging around here?"
"I'm ......," Li Wen stammered, "I'm trying to figure out a way right now." ”
"How many are there now? Pay me back first. ”
"No ......" When Li Wen said this, his brain twitched and he hid his mobile phone behind him.
"Okay, you kid, don't you give me back the money, right?" The proprietress glanced at the driver, and the driver understood, got out of the car, and came to Li Wen.
"Look at how much money he has on his phone. The proprietress ordered.
The driver stretched out his hand, and Li Wen couldn't dodge anymore, so he could only hand over the mobile phone head-on.
"Boss, this kid has more than 10,000. ”
The proprietress stretched out her mobile phone in front of Li Wen, "You don't need me to teach you how to do it, right? ”
"However, 10,000 of them belong to someone else, and this is a debt that I have asked for for someone else's money. ”
"Then you can only say sorry to others. Although the proprietress was right, Li Wen was also in an unreasonable position, so he could only transfer all the money to the proprietress and leave a few hundred yuan as a fraction.
"Alright, hurry up with the rest of the money, I can't wait too long for you. "The hostess left satisfied.
Back at the residence, it was already late at night, Li Wen came to Xiaomeng's room and knocked on the door.
The door of the room opened, and Xiao Meng stood in front of Li Wen expressionlessly, "It's so late, what's wrong?"
"I want to say ......"
"It doesn't matter if you don't get the money. When Xiaomeng saw Li Wen's embarrassed and ugly expression, he had already guessed the outcome of the matter.
"No, the money is coming, it's just that something has happened. ”
After Li Wen explained to Xiao Meng, Xiao Meng did not show any intention to blame Li Wen, but simply said "I know" and closed the door to send off the guests.
Li Wen returned to his room, turned on the computer, and began to prepare a new novel theme. The novels that are already being serialized are almost in a half-dead state, and even if they are written, it is nothing more than a waste of time and energy.
"What kind of subject matter is good to write about?"
Li Wen kept typing "ah" into the document, then deleted it, typed it out again, and continued to delete it, and this repeated state lasted for about an hour.
"Forget it, it looks like there is no result today. ”
Li Wen will take out the content of a chapter from the deposit, upload it to the platform, and close the computer.
"It seems that being a writer is not an easy life. ”
Lying flat on the bed, Li Wen turned his head slightly, checking the furnishings and everything in the room.
How long are you going to be trapped here? Li Wen sighed, "Hey, it's really hard to stay up late at night. ”
"Help!"
Piercing cries for help pierced the night.
