Peter, a middle-aged woman, is becoming more and more interested in Ju Xiaohui. Her eyes were fixed on the light makeup on Ju Xiaohui's face, and then at the young girl's beautiful figure, and said with a slight smile: "Yes, the manners and appearance are well maintained." It can be seen that you are a woman who is quite demanding about her life. ”

Ju Xiaohui's face sank slightly, obviously, she was upset by the word "woman".

In this world, what girl who is not yet thirty years old would be willing to be called a woman by others. They don't want to be called aunts by children, and they don't want to be called sisters at work, although they have long passed the age of being called "little sisters", they still like to be called little Ju far more than Ju sisters.

- No matter how sweet you scream, it's useless.

Looking at the emotional changes on Ju Xiaohui's face like a little girl, Peter seemed to be even happier, she stepped forward and patted Ju Xiaohui's shoulder, and said, "Okay, I like a girl like you who has direct emotions." Tell me, what do you want to do, if I can cooperate, I will cooperate with you. ”

Shangguan smiled bitterly, and hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, no matter what kind of character you are, there will definitely be people who don't like you." And in the same way, no matter what kind of personality you are, there are bound to be people who think you are good. ”

So it's not about how you want to please others, it's better to be yourself and be natural.

Just like falling in love, instead of trying to please others, it is better to be true to yourself and then accumulate a little talent or strength for yourself. This will better protect the girls, and this will be even better.

Belch...... Far from it.

Shangguan also found out his embarrassment, and stuck out his tongue slightly. In order to change the topic, he quickly said: "That's right. Why would you want to buy these vintage models and rearrange and assemble them so well? ”

In Shangguan's opinion, these body parts are at least ten years old. Mecha is a fast-changing thing like computers and networks, and the finished products of three years ago are very outdated, if it weren't for the mecha manufacturers to remodel and upgrade the same model of the body every one to two years, then there would be no such thing as a best-selling model in this world.

It is precisely in this way that mecha is the industry that needs the most money and energy. To be a freelance mercenary on your own, you need to be able to earn enough money to maintain the high cost of upgrading and maintaining your own mech. From this point of view, every freelance mercenary is a person with great strength.

Peter smiled faintly. said: "You little guy doesn't understand the customs very much." When it comes to talking, it's not big or small. Tell the truth. I don't like you. As if to neutralize the unhappiness brought to him by Shangguan, she glanced at Ju Xiaohui a few more times, and then said, "Hahaha." Or this little girl is a little cuter, a little cuter. ”

She said "cute" several times, as if she really thought Ju Xiaohui was very simple and beautiful.

This made Xiaohui's face flush slightly, and she said with a stiff smile: "Then ask the senior to explain it to him." ”

Although she had vaguely guessed the other party's thoughts in her heart, she was still reluctant to say it directly. She is afraid that if she makes a mistake, she will let the other party damage her good image in her heart.

People are such a strange thing, when you know that the other person doesn't care about you, you don't seem to care what the other person thinks. But when you know that you have a good image, it seems that you want to continue to maintain it.

Perhaps, it has something to do with the faint vanity in everyone's heart.

Peter laughed, "Of course a young man like you who has no money and no power will like this kind of retro body. But you are not the only ones in this world who seek to live a real life. Looking at Shangguan's confused eyes, he said again: "If one day, when you can't spend all your money, or you have power in your hands, someone is willing to pay for you and let you choose a lot of bodies." At that point, you won't just focus on the configuration and performance of the body, you will even take into account its appearance, history, and uniqueness. ”

He snapped his fingers in the air and said, "The simplest point is that if you use a model that has been refurbished and reorganized like this, you will definitely not meet someone who drives the same mech as you." ”

What is unique? Uniqueness is taste, it is personality.

Those rich uncles, but they all want to make themselves unique.

- Although such an idea is somewhat ridiculous in Shangguan's eyes. Shangguan felt that it was not interesting at all to use external things to make himself unique.

Since you are a pilot, you have to make yourself the strongest pilot within your ability.

Only such rebellion is meaningful, and only such rebellion can bring more growth to oneself.

From this point of view, Shangguan is still quite mature.

Shangguan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what the other party meant. Then, at his suggestion, Ju Xiaohui indicated her intention, and she said, "We are looking for a senior named Shangguan Hong, who is said to have come to you before his disappearance, can you tell us his whereabouts?" ”

"Huh? Shangguan Hong! As soon as he heard this keyword, Peter's face changed slightly, and he said, "Who are you?" ”

Shangguan and Ju Xiaohui glanced at each other, not knowing whether it was better to tell the truth.

If he showed his relationship with his father, then if Peter was an enemy of his father or something, he would definitely be detrimental to himself.

When Shangguan hesitated, Peter suddenly sat down, she cocked Erlang's feet, and said, "You'd better tell the truth." I'm also a person who has lived to a certain age, and I don't have any other strengths, but I can always hear the truth of things. I especially don't like hypocrites, if you say something half-false. Then I think that's the end of our conversation for today. ”

Shangguan sighed slightly, and then he told the truth about his identity and thoughts. He said that he was Shangguan Hong's son, and now he was about to find his father's whereabouts, and slowly finished telling some basic facts. Shangguan said again: "My thoughts are not complicated, my father raised me, and now he may be in danger, I want to find him back, it's just such a simple thing." ”

After a pause, Shangguan said again: "Maybe his profession is a killer, maybe he has killed many people, but no matter what he has done, I will defend him, after all...... He was my father. "After thinking about it. He seemed to feel that something was wrong again. added: "And. I've heard that my father always only killed bad people, and he didn't kill good people. ”

"Hehehehehehe, you're really innocent. It's the first time I've heard of the truth that killers only kill bad guys and don't kill good guys. Peter smiled slightly, obviously, he didn't believe Shangguan's words.

He said again: "However, since Shangguan Hong is so famous, let's believe him for the time being." That's when he came to me, and that's what he told me a bunch of bullshit. He said that he only killed those whom were not approved by 'justice and fairness', and that those who were good, even if they were living by smuggling and other immoral things, he would not touch a hair of them. ”

You can hear it. Peter still recognizes Shangguan Hong's personality. In this way, Shangguan was slightly relieved.

"And where did my father go?" He asked anxiously, then stared at the other man's expression.

Peter had been sitting in a chaise longue, but by this time, at the most important point in time for her to speak, she had fallen down. She took out a cigarette, lit it softly for herself, and began to laugh without saying a word.

"Can you tell us?" Shangguan was a little anxious, so he continued to ask.

"Senpai, if you can help us, we will be very grateful to you." Ju Xiaohui, who had been quiet for a while, also opened his mouth to help intercede at this time.

And Peter, as if waiting for the little girl to speak, smiled and said, "Okay, I just like you little girl." I'll help you with that......"

Shangguan and Ju Xiaohui glanced at each other, and the look of relief flashed in their eyes. Anyway, at least this middle-aged woman can agree, and she should have found further clues. In Shangguan's heart, he also breathed a sigh of relief slightly.

But unexpectedly, Peter said: "But, you must have heard the proverb 'There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world'." If you want to get something from someone else's hand, you have to pay for it. Her eyes were smiling like a piece of chocolate, and the dark glow was a little uncomfortable.

"Tell me what you want." Shangguan shrugged. After hearing this, even Zai Muna already understood what the other party meant.

Peter still smiled and said, "What I want is very simple." She pulled Shangguan in front of her, hooked the other party's shoulder, and slowly began to tell her thoughts and stories.

And the wrinkles on her face slowly rose and fell with the rhythm of her story, and such a scene gave Shangguan an illusion. It was as if he was just a piece of meat on a cutting board, and the other party's sharp blade had slowly reached in front of him.

To be honest, this feeling is really uncomfortable.

On the streets in winter, everyone wears their thickest clothes. Because the wind is really cold, those trendy girls and handsome guys also wear warm down jackets, and those middle-aged and elderly people who are not so particular about dressing up wear out the clothes and jackets of previous years. Older people tend to wear thick clothes, because when they buy clothes, they want to do ten things in just one minute. Therefore, their clothes are thin, so that they can be worn in spring, autumn and winter.

It's just that when it's colder, they have to put on thick sweaters and thermal underwear inside. Although it will be a little bloated, the convenience and benefits that it brings to the family financially make them do it willingly.

There aren't many people taking buses in the United States, but it's not a few. The people in the car are generally elderly and poor, in this big car country. No matter how poor you are, scraping together some money to buy a second-hand car and drive it should still be something that the average family can afford.

And on this bus traveling around the city, in one of the front seats, sat a woman who was still dressed in fashion. The woman also looked to be in her early thirties. The dressing and matching of the clothes are quite exquisite, but the fabrics are all very poor texture, and it can be seen that her economic situation is not good.

What's even worse is that on her side, a little boy with yellow hair is sleeping on her lap.

The boy was her son, who was only four years old. When he was three and a half years old, Lifon divorced.

She wasn't a highly educated person before, and she fell in love with her ex-husband when she was a freshman in high school. The relationship between the two has increased day by day after their early love at school, and her reading grades were not good. Under the influence of her ex-husband, she didn't like to study even more.

They would skip school and go to the beach. Take pictures everywhere. Even in the days when all the pocket money has been spent. The two also felt that it was much better to wander around the street than to stay in the classroom and learn those boring mathematics, physics and chemistry knowledge.

Towards the end of the semester of her junior year of high school, the boy said to her, "Let's stop studying." What's the use of studying? In the end, no matter how good the university is, it is not enough to go out and work for others. If we want to be the boss, we don't want to be those who work part-time, receive a little money every month, and then we are so tired that we don't have the slightest hope in life. ”

Lifan thought so. And the father, who was a railway plumber, had already lost his family due to gambling and alcoholism, and seeing that his daughter didn't have to study anymore, and he didn't have to pay the high tuition fees, he muttered a few words. But I didn't say any more nonsense.

So, Lifan began her life as a housewife. She spent her entire life at home, and her ex-husband started his own business, and although it was a small business, he never let her worry about business. At the end of each month, at the beginning he always got back a small amount of money, but the amount slowly increased, albeit slowly, but everything was still slowly improving.

The two didn't dare to have a child, and they never dared to ask for it. The ex-husband invested all the money he earned in the business into a new business, he said that he was very ambitious, and he did not just want to be an ordinary business leader, and he said that he would never spend his money again. Every time he talked about this dream, Lifon couldn't help but be moved.

A few years later, Lifan reached the age of about twenty-eight. As a woman, she couldn't sit still anymore. Although the days when she can watch TV dramas quietly after cleaning her home every day are indeed very quiet and charming, she still wants more excitement and companionship.

After her father dies of cancer, Lifan has a showdown with her ex-husband. One night, she said, "Let's have another child, or I won't be able to live this day anymore." ”

She thought she was sure. Any woman must dare to be coquettish and lose her temper with each other when she feels that she is very sure. Everyone knows their own safety limits and limits, and everyone will spend their lives in the "safe zone" of their lives.

So when Lifan said this, she didn't have a lot of worries. But her ex-husband's answer surprised her.

The man who had slept with her countless times in bed, but he didn't expect him to just be on the simple leather sofa and said indifferently: "I won't agree to your conditions, if you want to leave you." ”

Lifan wiped her eyes and asked for another sentence, and until she had listened to the whole string of words exactly, she still didn't quite believe that it was coming from the mouth of the man she trusted the most.

She has washed his clothes for so many years, made every meal sweet and delicious, and solved his physiological needs and ** for so many years, for these, she did not confiscate a penny.

She didn't expect that what she got in exchange was such a conscienceless statement and request.

Her tears instantly flooded her eyes, and she said indifferently: "You dare to do this to me, this is a reasonable request that any woman would want. ”

The ex-husband said indifferently: "You shouldn't treat me like this either, this is a normal requirement that any man in business would want." ”

After that very unpleasant conversation, Lifon did not try to communicate again. She made her stand with her actions. She found a fine needle and deliberately punctured the entire box of condoms that she usually kept on the bedside table. After she finally managed to get pregnant, her ex-husband was furious.

"I'm not going to let you give birth to him," he said, "and I'm not going to let a kid derail the trajectory of my life." ”

Lifon almost cried and begged: "Just let me give birth to him, your business hasn't changed much in so many years, and it's not bad for a few years." ”

What she said in exchange for herself was a slap in the face of a fierce ear.

Syllable!

This voice shattered the last trace of beautiful yearning for marriage in Lifen's heart.

But she still didn't give up, she insisted: "If you don't let me give birth to the child, I will reveal the dirty things you started doing in business today." ”

The ex-husband's face darkened, and he didn't say anything anymore. After so many years of hard work and no success in the business field, he began to become smart this year, and he began to follow the unspoken path of rules, giving officials money, famous cars and beautiful women, and he believed that his business would make more money for it.

He only dared to tell Lifan about this matter, because in his eyes, Lifan was just a little lazy cat, and this lazy cat who didn't even have financial income would not have a future of his own at all—if he got rid of him as a man.
