Chapter 1 Flowers and people
As the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, people have good fortune and misfortune, one second you may be proud of life, the next second you may fall into the abyss.
Parallel world, coal city.
Chang Ning relied on his charm a year ago and finally caught up with Zhao Qingqing, a flower-level figure. When I was about to graduate, I caught up with a junior girl to be my girlfriend, and this kind of record seems to be able to show off to my classmates and future colleagues for a while.
In fact, Chang Ning's classmates didn't expect to be able to catch up with a department flower when they were about to graduate, which was just shit luck. But this luck seemed to be still attached to him in the next moment.
When Chang Ning's classmates were still struggling to find jobs, Chang Ning had already started working in a company in a coal city, and the salary was not bad, not only did he have various insurances, but his boss also appreciated him.
Chang Ning seems to have all kinds of good things coming one after another, so much so that when her girlfriend Zhao Qingqing went to the company where he worked to look for him, someone from his colleague actually recognized Zhao Qingqing's identity: the only daughter of the chairman of the coal city Huazhong Automobile Alliance Group.
Huazhong Auto Alliance mainly produces automobiles, and the sales volume accounts for more than half of the entire federal car sales.
If he continues like this, Chang Ning will at least be able to struggle for decades less than people who have the same starting point as him.
But there are no ifs in life, often a dramatic turn can make you lose and lose your armor, and Chang Ning is like this now.
Who would have thought that just because of an ordinary pot of orchids, people can lose their jobs? Chang Ning felt extremely aggrieved, the orchids in his office had been placed for nearly half a month, and when the boss went to his office, he didn't see his orchids, and he saw the flowers in Chang Ning's office that were almost full, and praised him as a flower lover.
The boss's eight-year-old son came to the company with the boss's wife, and he didn't go anywhere else, but secretly ran to Changning's office, but after a while, he fainted.
After everyone lifted the boss's son into the ambulance called, the boss found the orchid in Changning's office, the orchid that had bloomed.
The boss didn't say a word, and directly asked Chang Ning to go to the personnel department to settle the salary.
Chang Ning has been working in this company for half a year since graduating from university, although he has not shown outstanding ability, but his work is decent, and this kind of regularity has been appreciated by his boss. But he has a habit, that is, he likes all kinds of plants, half a year, his office has no less than ten pots of flowers, if it is not a small office area, he wants to put them all, until that day, he brought a pot of blooming orchids, everything changed.
After Chang Ning was dismissed, I don't know if it was because his good luck was exhausted, which caused the mold star to shine.
Chang Ningyuan's father, who was in a county under the coal city, suddenly sent Chang Ning the news, which hit him like a thunderbolt from the sky, his mother had cancer!
Cancer is still a terminal disease in the federal government in 2016, especially the cancer that has spread, and there is basically no hope of being cured.
Chang Ning's father had already sold his only house in order to treat Chang Ning's mother, and if he didn't reach the point of exhaustion, Chang Ning's father would not tell Chang Ning the news of his mother's illness. Because Chang's father knew that Chang Ning, who had just walked out of the campus, had no money at all, let alone connections, since he had already told Chang Ning, it was naturally a bit of an explanation of the future.
Chang Ning was dumbfounded when he learned about his mother's illness.
As a moonlight clan, he has tried his best to save money to pay the rent, but now he has no job, so he has cut off his financial resources, and as a young man with ideals and ambitions, he will never reach out and gnaw at the old. This practice also led him to not know the news until his mother was unable to treat him.
Chang Ning thinks that if her mother is not sick, she often talks to her mother, isn't it very good? Now that her mother who is in a coma can't speak, it has become a luxury to want to talk to her mother again, so there is no if everything is wrong, and only when your parents are still alive can you do your filial piety and not regret it.
Chang Ning went to the hospital to visit his mother as quickly as possible, and together with Zhao Qingqing, his father, who was accompanying him in front of the bed, was already thin and not human.
After Chang Ning comforted his father, he secretly pulled Zhao Qingqing to the side, suddenly knelt down in front of Zhao Qingqing, and said: Qingqing, can you lend me a million? I will repay you in three years, calculating interest.
Zhao Qingqing looked at Chang Ning who suddenly knelt down in front of her, and seemed a little overwhelmed, she had never seen such Chang Ning, in her impression, Chang Ning always looked like she didn't care. Even a year and a half ago, because he was forced by the thugs with a knife to save himself, he didn't see him kneel down for the thugs, but he was stabbed desperately before he scared the thugs away.
Since then, Zhao Qingqing has fallen in love with Chang Ning, otherwise what kind of handsome guy has he never seen the daughter of the Huazhong Car League, how could he be chased by Chang Ning, an ordinary-looking otaku?
Zhao Qingqing gently pulled Chang Ning up and said gently, "Okay." ”
Chang Ning's mother had this million treatment, and she lasted for another three months, and the only time she woke up during this period, she gave Chang Ning a rectangular antique jade pendant, which was said to be a family heirloom.
Three months later, Chang Ning's mother died, and his father was martyred three days after his death.
Since then, Chang Ning has been staying in his rental house all day, waking up to observe the flowers and plants he raised, and when he is tired, he lies on the chaise longue in the courtyard and looks up at the starry sky.
After another three months like this, Zhao Qingqing often comes to chat with him, or eat, but in the past month, the number of times he has come has become less and less, especially when he sees Chang Ning in a daze next to the flower, he will always leave quietly.
Changning's rental house is close to the suburbs, and the single courtyard is cheap and big, so I rented a single house, and the rental price is not expensive, but seeing that the rent is due again, when I think of the rent, Chang Ning, who is squatting next to a pot of aloe vera, sighs, in order to treat his mother, the one million borrowed from Zhao Qingqing has been all spent, and he is now unemployed, and he is already about to run out of food, let alone pay the rent, fortunately, the landlord has not come to urge him to pay the rent recently, otherwise there is no place to live now.
Chang Ning was thinking nonsense when he heard a voice in his ear, like thunder: "Chang Ning, do you want flowers or me?"
Chang Ning was startled, his hand trembled and grabbed the thorny leaves of aloe vera, and suddenly felt a tingling pain in his palm, it stands to reason that although aloe vera has thorns, they are all blunt thorns, and basically will not prick people with blood. But Chang Ning's aloe vera is special than others, the thorns are like the thorns of a cactus, and this hand is full of blood.
