Zhuang Xiaomeng has been short of money to spend recently. With a lot of clothes and shoes he had recently bought, the number on his salary card had dropped from four to three digits, and he had a headache thinking about his expenses this month.

I knew that I was going to live a life of poverty or even no food now, so I shouldn't have squandered it in the first place. Hey, when I buy something, I like it when I look at this, I like that, I want to buy this, I want to buy that, and I feel uncomfortable after the money is spent. He was really worried about whether the little money in his salary card would allow him to survive until next month's paycheck.

However, on the day Zhuang Xiaomeng came to Shanghai, he already had a premonition that one day he would live a life without a meal, so he forced himself to save money. Fortunately, he has a reserve fund, so he is not afraid. What he regrets the most now is why he gave his bank card to Lantian in the first place, if he didn't give it, he wouldn't have so many troubles now.

That's your own money, and it's a matter of course to get it back. But how to come back, this is the most troublesome thing for Zhuang Xiaomeng, it is not possible to hit him hard, Lantian will not pay attention to him at all, so he chooses a roundabout tactic. tried his best to please Lantian, and pretended to be poor in front of Lantian, maybe Lantian returned the bank card to him as soon as his heart softened.

Zhuang Xiao smiled happily when he dreamed of this.

Zhuang Xiaomeng's idea was too simple, he didn't know Lantian, Lantian was not as easy to deceive as he imagined.

When Zhuang Xiaomeng came home from work, he deliberately went to the supermarket to take a look, he bought a lot of vegetables and fruits, he wanted to go home to cook, and specially cooked a meal for Lantian.

After Zhuang Xiaomeng brought the vegetables home, he took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was now a quarter past seven in the evening, and Lantian was estimated to be on his way home. Time was tight and the task was heavy, Zhuang Xiaomeng hurriedly hid in the kitchen and fried a few dishes as he wanted.

Zhuang Xiaomeng looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table, and his heart began to ache faintly again. If he didn't get his bank card back this time, wouldn't it be for nothing that he bought these vegetables and fruits in the supermarket, which cost him more than a hundred yuan.

When Lantian got home, he saw Zhuang Xiaomeng honestly sitting on the sofa watching TV. He looked at the food on the table again, although the style of the food was not very beautiful, but he still felt the warmth, and his heart suddenly appeared with tenderness, tenderness that could melt steel. Looking at everything in front of him, he suddenly sighed with emotion, this is the happiness he wants, this is his ideal life.

Zhuang Xiao dreamed that Lantian was back, smiled gently, then bounced out of the sofa, ran to Lantian's side, like a little woman waiting for her husband's return, and said happily, "Back?" I'm not tired from work today. The meal is ready, wash your hands and eat quickly. ”

Lantian was stunned, a little at a loss. In the past, Zhuang Xiaomeng never cared about himself, nor was he as diligent as he is today, and he either raised eyebrows or roared like thunder. Now this way makes it difficult for him to bear it for a while.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Lantian asked with concern.

Zhuang Xiaomeng pushed Lantian to the bathroom to wash his hands, and smiled faintly, "No." I'm in good health. ”

Lantian washed his hands and sat down at the dining table to eat, Zhuang Xiaomeng sat opposite Lantian and looked at Lantian quietly with his face propped up, looking very happy and enjoying it, making Lantian a little shy. Lantian picked up the dish and tasted it, he frowned slightly, this dish was a little salty with too much salt. Lantian sighed helplessly, Zhuang Xiaomeng was obsessed with cooking at the beginning, and he had studied for so long, but now that the technology has not improved, how can he not even put the most basic seasoning.

"Isn't it delicious?" Zhuang Xiaomeng asked with a smile.

Lantian swallowed the dish in his mouth into his stomach, although it was a little salty, but this was a dish specially made for him by Zhuang Xiaomeng, even if it was not delicious, it was delicious.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious." Lantian replied in embarrassment.

"If it's delicious, eat more." Zhuang Xiaomeng picked up chopsticks and sandwiched a lot of dishes for Lantian. Lantian tasted the dishes, each one salty. Maybe Lantian's taste is relatively light, while Zhuang Xiaomeng's taste is heavier.

After eating, Zhuang Xiaomeng rushed to the kitchen to wash the dishes, Lantian wanted to help, but Zhuang Xiaomeng didn't let him, and pushed Lantian to the living room. The dish he ate just now was so salty that Lantian couldn't hold back any longer, so he took a glass of water and began to drink it violently.

After Zhuang Xiaomeng finished busy in the kitchen, he came out with half a watermelon. He saw that Lantian had been drinking water, and reproached, "The water can't be drunk too strongly, it's not good for the stomach." ”

Lantian smiled timidly, he didn't know what to say.

"Here, eat watermelon." Zhuang Xiaomeng sat on the sofa and smiled, then patted the position next to him and motioned for Lantian to sit down.

Lan Tian swallowed his saliva and looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng in a daze, feeling doubts in his heart. Zhuang Xiaomeng: What's wrong? All of today's actions are not in accordance with his old habits. Did he take the wrong medicine?

It's often like this when I ask for help, is Zhuang Xiaomeng asking me for something? But Zhuang Xiaomeng has never and is unwilling to ask him to do anything. Lantian has been thinking, but his body is very well-behaved and sits beside Zhuang Xiaomeng, and now Zhuang Xiaomeng took the initiative to ask him to sit over, how could he go against Zhuang Xiaomeng's wishes, and he couldn't miss the opportunity and never come again.

Zhuang Xiaomeng took a spoon and dug a spoonful of watermelon, and then fed it to Lantian to eat. Lantian looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng stupidly, very happy in his heart, but he still tried his best to restrain his emotions.

Zhuang Xiao dreamed of the consternation on Lantian's face, so he said gently, "Taste it, the watermelon is sweet." ”

Lantian couldn't believe that everything in front of him was true, and he didn't believe that Zhuang Xiaomeng would be so good to him now, cooking for him and feeding him watermelon. It must be that the drunkard does not mean to drink, and there must be something else.

"Eat it." Zhuang Xiaomeng saw that Lantian had not opened his mouth, so he shouted loudly, just like when he was a child, his parents reprimanded a child who did not eat.

Lantian opened his mouth hard and ate the watermelon very sincerely, like a robot, very obedient. Then he said leisurely, "It's so sweet." ”

Zhuang Xiao dreamed that Lantian had eaten watermelon, and then handed the watermelon in his hand to Lantian, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lan, I have also eaten the rice and tasted the watermelon, should you pay something?" ”

"What do you want me to give?" Lantian smiled knowingly, it seemed that Zhuang Xiaomeng was going to make a request to him, and the food and watermelon he ate were not for nothing.

"Actually, you don't have to pay too much, just pay a little bit." Zhuang Xiaomeng took the spoon and fed Lantian another spoonful of watermelon, and then said with a smile.

"How much is a little bit?"

"I'm a reasonable person, you just have to give me my bank card, and I don't want anything else." Zhuang Xiaomeng smiled solemnly, and then took a spoon and fed Lantian another spoonful of watermelon.

Lan Tian let out a meaningful oh and smiled, but did not answer.

"You don't think I'm asking too much!"

"Not excessive." Lantian said leisurely, "Why do you have to ask for your bank card back?" The bank card was given to me willingly, not by me. Besides, this money is the rent money you paid, and I will return it to you, and then you pat your ass and leave, who will I ask for rent. ”

"How did I give it to you willingly? It's clear that you forced me to give it to you. Zhuang Xiaomeng gritted his teeth and said, but he still smiled. In order not to anger Lantian, he had to restrain his anger.

"It doesn't matter if you give it to me or not, that bank card is tied to my mobile phone, and I'll transfer the money in it in a while." Zhuang Xiaomeng said deliberately.

Lantian smiled and said, "If that bank card is tied to your mobile phone, will you ask me for a card every day?" ”

"Count you ruthless." Zhuang Xiaomeng was helpless, so he began to pretend to be poor and pretended to be bitter, and said, "My mother is sick and hospitalized, and she needs me to send some money back to see a doctor, so you can give me the card." ”

"The level of medical care in Shanghai is much better than in your hometown, and you can bring your mother to Shanghai for treatment. And I'm a doctor, your mother doesn't need you to worry about coming to Shanghai for treatment, I can provide one-stop service. ”

Zhuang Xiaomeng thought he was very witty, but he forgot that Lantian was a doctor. He shouldn't have used this ridiculous reason to deceive Lantian, and he himself didn't believe it when he said this reason, not to mention the wise Lantian, he also felt sorry for his mother, and he shouldn't say that she was sick. Now he can't make it up, so he has to tell the truth.

"If you don't have any money, just say it, why deceive people?" Lantian complained.

"I'm not afraid that you will have Balabala say a lot of things to complain about me, complain that I spend money indiscriminately." Zhuang Xiaomeng was a little unconvinced, "You just give me my bank card." ”

"I'll charge you if you don't have a phone bill, I'll send you if you don't have a meal, and if you don't have money to take the bus, I'll pick you up and go to work. If you want to buy something, just tell me and I'll buy it for you. If you need to pay for a party with a colleague, call me directly and I'll pay you. Lan Tian paused and continued, "As for the bank card, I won't give it to you." ”

"Don't you think that's a hassle?"

Lan Tian smiled, then shook his head and said, "I don't feel troublesome at all. Because only in this way can he have a reason to surround Zhuang Xiaomeng every day.

Zhuang Xiaomeng stood up from the sofa angrily, pointing at Lantian and not knowing what to say. Lantian picked up the mobile phone and charged Zhuang Xiaomeng with five hundred yuan, then looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng and said, "The phone bill has been charged for you, enough for you to use for a month." Starting tomorrow, I will pick you up and drop you off at work. You can keep that money on you. ”

Zhuang Xiaomeng was very angry, but he was helpless. In this way, he has to live under Lantian's clutches every day, like a marionette controlled by Lantian every day, thinking about his future life, he feels troubled.
