Chapter 4 Life is not easy

What is the best way to lose weight in college students?

Controlling your diet, exercising regularly, studying hard, or getting emaciated for you?

Neither.

Xu Ran may have given those answers before, but if he was asked to answer this question now, he would definitely blurt out: "Life is struggle, just be self-reliant." ”

This is the lesson that Xu Ran has learned based on his own personal experience.

Since Xu Ran's parents didn't know why they had a whim, and they used unknown methods to transfer him to this place where he was unfamiliar and didn't understand the language to go to school, Xu Ran's suffering began.

Everything starts from scratch, from jet lag, diet, and language, to studies, social circles, and lifestyles, and all aspects of life need to be formatted.

Xu Ran himself sometimes can't help but laugh at himself, he has lived to be in his twenties, but he has experienced three different styles of customs and customs, is he also a man who is full of charm and has experienced vicissitudes?

And that's not the worst, as long as the days go on slowly, these things will always be mastered and used to. But what Xu Ran didn't expect was...

---------------------------

I have only been here for half a semester, and on the first day of May, the moment the morning glow sprinkled into the room, Xu Ran was lying on the bed and happily dialed his father's phone, and asked for this month's living expenses, but he didn't expect his father's words to be shocking, making him instantly become two hundred percent awake from a half-dream-like daze.

"What? Want me to be self-reliant? No more financial support for me from today? Dad, today is the first day of May, not the first day of April, don't be kidding, okay? Xu Ran sat up from the bed suddenly.

"I'm not kidding you, I've discussed it with your mother, and I always think it's not a good thing to enjoy it like you. Young men in their twenties should also fend for themselves. ”

"That's why we decided to move you to a place you're completely unfamiliar with, and if it's still in the same place, I know you'll be able to mix it up even if you do. How, we've thought it through, right? ”

The corners of Xu Ran's mouth twitched a little, how to listen to how to feel that his father was very proud.

"Dear Dad, do you want to talk about it again? For example, halving the cost of living? ”

"Is half of the 20,000 soft girl coins a lot?"

"Then no less, forty percent?"

"No way!"

"Thirty percent?"

There was no response on the other end of the line.

"Twenty percent, it can't be less!"

"No way, boy, you better learn to survive by yourself, the family is big, I don't want you to rely only on your parents, I work three jobs at this time!"

"Okay, I see... I'm going to do my best. ”

Xu Ran saw that his father had a tough tone, and sighed helplessly, and could only reluctantly and perfunctorily agree, but he was thinking about it in his heart, and quietly contacted his mother in private to ask for pocket money.

Anyway, my mother loves herself the most, and she will definitely not refuse!

As if he had insight into Xu Ran's little abacus, Xu Dong paused and added: "You have to understand our hard work. By the way, in order for you to really learn to be independent, your mother and I decided not to contact you for a certain period of time, you have to take care of yourself, you know? ”

“... Is it really that amazing? Dad. Xu Ran felt a little black in front of him.

"People are forced out, this is also for your good, work hard! Let your mom talk to you. ”

Then Xu Ran's mother took the phone and told her for a while.

The phone was hung up, and Xu Ran knew that it was not only the call that was cut off, but also his own financial resources and his own good life.

Hanging up the phone, Lin Lan was still a little uneasy: "Wouldn't this be too much?" Xiao Ran is alone over there, and I really don't feel at ease. ”

Xu Dong waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, what can happen to a young man in his twenties, Xiao Ran's grades and personality are good in all aspects, but he is too lacking in exercise, and he is a little pampered, so it's not good." ”

Lin Lan still said: "That's what I said, but in a foreign country, I am alone, how can I rest assured that I am a mother?" ”

Xu Dong fed another reassuring pill: "Don't worry, I've already asked someone to help me take care of it secretly, if there is really any situation, she and her family will help." ”

Lin Lan was puzzled: "Who is it?" ”

"Have you forgotten? I used to be very good with Xiao Ran. ”

Xu Dong said, flipped out a photo of the two families from the photo album of his mobile phone, and pointed to a girl on it.

"Oh, it's her." Lin Lan nodded suddenly in understanding, and then put her heart back in her stomach.

"Otherwise, why do you think I should let him go next door, it's not far away, and there is someone to take care of, there will definitely be no accidents." “

So don't secretly help your baby son, that's hurting him, I don't want my son to be difficult to become a big man in the future, then I won't give him if I really donate the company. Hmph, don't let me down, boy. ”

On the other side, Xu Ran was in a daze and still didn't come back to his senses.

I'm not dreaming, am I? Daddy means he's not going to take care of me anymore? In other words, from today onwards, I have to be self-reliant and work-study, otherwise I will directly become starved to death on the street?

Thinking of this, Xu Ran suddenly became excited, grabbed his hair with both hands with some irritation, and began to worry about what to do in the next life.

Xu Ran vaguely remembered that when he was very young, his family was not rich, but later his father opened or joined a company, and the situation of the family became better and better, he didn't know the specifics, and he didn't bother to ask, anyway, he never had to worry about not enough money to spend.

In all aspects of life, as long as it is about material things, Xu Ran, who is not too outrageous, can basically be satisfied, such as Xu Ran's request to go directly to study abroad in high school.

Of course, this is also because he is not pampered, and he is quite competitive, and he is not like other second generations who are not enterprising all day long. Perhaps, the difference between Xu Ran and "other people's children" is just that the family conditions are good. In the eyes of others, Xu Ran is the standard so-called "the rear waves".

"Fortunately, when I came here, I asked my father to buy this house directly in the name of investment, otherwise if I pay the rent on a monthly basis, I may be kicked out by the landlord to sleep on the street next month, right? Is this a blessing in disguise? Xu Ran reluctantly comforted himself.

Due to family conditions, Xu Ran has never had the habit of saving, and if he wants to spend money, just tell his mother directly. Now that he has calculated it, Xu Ran found that if he lived according to the most ordinary life, his little money would only be enough for more than 20 days and less than a month.

"Learn to cook by yourself, go to the restaurant like before, I'm afraid you'll be penniless in less than a week." No, let's buy more instant noodles at home..."
