Chapter 42: Birthday (Part 2)
Squeak~~~yah~~~
Lu Jiu stared blankly at the door in front of him, the breeze blew, and the construction waste on the side suddenly made a squeaky sound.
At this time, the streets in the south of the city have become ruins after the fierce battle of Baqi and Lu Jiu's demolition.
Countless houses and buildings have been destroyed, and even public roads have not been spared.
Fortunately, that night, the people in the vicinity evacuated very quickly, and although some money was inevitably lost, their lives were saved.
At this time, the rows of prefabricated houses made of alloy were barely rebuilt on the ruins to settle the housing problems of the residents of the southern streets of the city.
There is no way, to rebuild such a large area of free houses, this is not something that can be solved immediately in three or five days.
Although the government has already focused on rebuilding this slum street, which was originally provided free of charge to those who need to receive a minimum of subsistence, it is clear that it will take some time.
But for Lu Jiu, who is used to living a hard life, it is already good to have a place to sleep well.
At the very least, you still have a home, don't you?
Thinking of this, Lu Jiu smiled comfortably, twisted the door open, and then stepped in.
However, the first thing that caught his eye was that his face was full of anger, and he was cocking Erlang's legs, sitting on the chair with his hands crossed, and staring at his banshee woman-Chen Beixuan complainingly.
"Heh, do you still know to come back?"
Chen Beixuan let out a cold snort, and Lu Jiu's waist immediately reacted, seeing that there were some signs that he was about to cramp.
"This ......"
Lu Jiu hurriedly rubbed the meat on his waist, and suddenly felt weak.
Who made him habitually close the door with his backhand, and accidentally cut off all his escape routes.
"Say, what have you been doing these days?
I didn't answer my aunt's call for three whole days, surnamed Lu, you have the guts! ”
Chen Beixuan slapped the table in front of her suddenly, like a genuine wife who caught rape and held accountable.
Feeling its powerful momentum, Lu Jiu actually had the inexplicable urge of Chen Beixuan to kneel on the spot.
What kind of anger is this aunt so angry this time?
Lu Jiu didn't know, but he didn't dare to ask.
"Hand, the phone is broken."
Lu Jiu was resigned, so he replied emphatically.
"Whew~ Okay, the phone is broken.
Then my birthday tomorrow, are you still going? ”
It seemed that she was not ready to delve into the reason why Lu Jiu didn't answer the phone, the girl Chen Beixuan exhaled softly, and then asked Lu Jiu tentatively.
In the words, there is actually some expectation.
"Birthday?"
Lu Jiu suddenly realized that the chick in front of him was only a few days younger than him.
"Go, of course go, why don't you go if you can eat and drink?"
Lu Jiu even agreed.
Although I don't know what Demonpo Chen's family does, she has been acting like a rich second generation since she knew her.
Not only is it vividly manifested in front of food, clothing, and use, but even it is very generous to itself.
You know, if Lu Jiu hadn't been relying on making up lessons for Chen Beixuan, a little girl, to earn a fairly rich make-up fee,
I'm afraid that Lu Jiu's life will be several times more difficult again, and it is not surprising that he will even starve to death one day.
Otherwise, how could he, a poor orphan living on a subsistence allowance, squeeze out the money to buy a bunch of crayfish on his birthday to celebrate?
Syllable!
Hearing Lu Jiu's affirmative answer, the girl Chen Beixuan's eyebrows suddenly stretched a smile, which was very good-looking.
Immediately, she took out a stack of red tickets from her pocket and slapped them on the table with such a bang.
"Well, this is the make-up fee owed to you before, so take it and change two clothes.
Hehe, you are my little brother, you have to dress better tomorrow, you can't embarrass Miss Ben. ”
The girl proudly crossed her waist again, and originally wanted to behave more coldly, but the joy in the corners of her eyes was really a little unhidden.
Lu Jiu has seen a lot of annoying and overly proud people in his life.
But I have to say that Chen Beixuan's pride is really a little annoying.
Probably, it's hard to dislike anything if you're good-looking.
"This ...... Isn't it a little too much. ”
Lu Jiu's gaze swept over the table, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.
It is true that he has more or less taken advantage of Chen Beixuan over the years, but this does not mean that he can accept Chen Beixuan's charity calmly.
Although the price of his make-up lessons for Chen Beixuan is 50 Dongxia yuan an hour, it is almost the price of a special tutoring institution outside the school.
But for Lu Jiu, who has been in the first place in the exam for many years, the price is actually quite reasonable.
After all, Chen Beixuan's grades have indeed improved significantly under her extracurricular tutoring.
Therefore, Lu Jiu received this make-up fee with peace of mind.
But at this time, such a thick stack of red tickets is obviously completely beyond the scope of make-up fees.
"Oops, not much.
Isn't this my coming-of-age ceremony tomorrow, as your boss, why don't you give a gift to make you happy as a little brother?
Besides, you're going to attend my birthday party tomorrow, so I, the big brother, can't spend money to clean up for you?
Otherwise, wouldn't that be a loss of my Chen Beixuan's own face? ”
Chen Beixuan, who is familiar with Lu Jiu's character, has already guessed what Lu Jiu's reaction will be, so it is natural that she has already thought of a rhetoric.
"Okay, I'm going back first, you remember to buy a new mobile phone and new clothes later, and I'll see you at the Wanhao Hotel in Luochuan City at noon tomorrow."
Seeing that Lu Jiu still seemed to be a little resistant to this, Chen Beixuan immediately prepared to flee first, so that Lu Jiu had no way to refuse anymore.
"Eh, by the way, how do you know I'll be back today?"
Seeing that Chen Beixuan was about to walk out of the door, Lu Jiu suddenly asked curiously.
"Stupid, stupid."
Chen Beixuan's face suddenly turned red, and she went out directly.
There's no way, she can't tell Lu Jiu directly that since he lost contact, she will come over every day to squat, right?
Seeing Chen Beixuan rushing out of the door, Lu Jiu, who was at a loss at all, finally put his eyes on the banknotes on the table again.
After looking at his temporary home, which had become a homeless house, he finally sighed and took it into his pocket.
Just borrow it first, and wait until tomorrow to work hard to earn money and pay it back to her.
Anyway, I owe her enough in my life.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiu couldn't help but smile helplessly.
And at this moment, the door of Lu Jiu's house slammed again.
