Chapter 4 Tie Your Shoes(1/2)

Early the next morning, the door banged.

"I know you are surnamed Lin. Come out to me. You owe me two months' rent. If you don't pay me today, I will kick you all out and open the door." The landlord, Huizhu, roared at the door.

Lin Zhengdong suddenly stood up straight like a corpse, "Shh..."

He made a gesture of silence to Lin Bufan who woke up.

Lin Bufan wanted to say that there was no need and he could get 500,000 today, but it was not convenient to speak at this time.

"Okay, if you don't come out, don't you think you are capable? I don't believe in evil. I will block you here to see how long you can shrink. You don't have to go to work today, and your son doesn't have to go to school." After finishing speaking, Luo Huizhu said.

He sat at the door with an expression that said he would never give up.

Thinking that his son still had to go to school, Lin Zhengdong had no choice but to open the door.

"Landlord, please give me a few more days of grace," Lin Zhengdong begged humbly.

"I am not a philanthropist. Now, immediately, get out with your belongings." Luo Huizhu pointed at Lin Zhengdong and scolded.

Lin Zhengdong looked shy and continued to plead: "Landlord, please have mercy on us. As you know, my wife is seriously ill in the hospital. I really can't afford the money now. Please give me a few more days. I beg you.

Be kind."

"Don't do this to me. I'm not a Bodhisattva. If you don't have money, get out of here." Luo Huizhu yelled viciously.

Just when Lin Bufan was about to speak, San Sanran's words floated from behind Luo Huizhu.

"Mom, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

The speaker was Luo Xiaoxiao, Luo Huizhu’s only daughter.

Luo Xiaoxiao is a 20-year-old college student. Because Luo Xiaoxiao's father married into the Luo family, Luo Xiaoxiao took her mother's surname, Luo Huizhu.

"Go, go, don't get involved here." Luo Huizhu frowned and shooed Luo Xiaoxiao away.

"Mom, Brother Lin's family is so pitiful. You are going too far. Our house is not a palace or a five-star hotel. The monthly rent is only 100 yuan. The rent they owe is deducted from my living expenses.

." Luo Xiaoxiao said carelessly.

"That's such a big statement. Where do you think your mother gets the money for food and drink for you? Love is worthless these days. The older you get, the less sensible you become."

"Little brother Lin's family is already very pitiful. Mom, you should be kind to your daughter, and occasionally show mercy and do some good deeds. If you continue to be like this, it will be difficult for my daughter to find a partner." Luo Xiaoxiao said.

He curled his lips, showing an angry and dissatisfied look.

After all, there is only such a precious daughter. Luo Huizhu sighed, and then said to Lin Zhengdong arrogantly: "Today, for the sake of my daughter, I will give you a few more days of grace. Give me all the rent you owe on the 1st of next month, otherwise I will give you

Get out."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much." Lin Zhengdong nodded and bowed.

Lin Bufan looked at Ling Xiaoxiao gratefully.

The two of them were friends in their last life.

When leaving the house, Lin Zhengdong dug out his entire pocket and handed Lin Bufan a 50-cent coin, "Bufan, Dad, I'm sorry for you. I've wronged you."

In 1998, you could drink soy milk and buy a steamed bun with 50 cents.

Lin Bufan took over the 50-cent coin as if he were taking over a mountain. My father, Alexander, but today the situation will change.

After leaving the gate, the summer fire clouds had already filled half of the sky, and the cicadas on the trees were chirping at the top of their lungs. Ren Xianqi's "Sad Pacific" came from the grocery store on the roadside.

Walking out of the village entrance, there is a tree-lined path. Luo Xiaoxiao has Korean-style side bangs, wearing a Korean long-sleeved skull T-shirt, and a pair of retro ripped pants underneath. With an unruly look, she leans on a poplar tree.

.

"Brother Lin, come here." Luo Xiaoxiao said with her fingers crossed.

Lin Bufan walked over and said, "Sister Xiaoxiao, are you waiting for me?"

"Waiting for you? What are you thinking in your little head? Can't I enjoy the coolness here? Here you go." Luo Xiaoxiao handed a bag to Lin Bufan, which contained a few meat buns and milk.

Lin Bufan was stunned for a moment and said, "Thank you, Sister Xiaoxiao, I'm not hungry."

"You think I bought it specially for you? Go ahead and dream. I bought too much breakfast and couldn't finish it. Do you want me to feed the dog?" Luo Xiaoxiao curled her lips and said.

Lin Bufan smiled naively and thought to himself: This little girl is a sharp-tongued person with a soft heart.

"I'm a dog, just feed me." Lin Bufan took the bag, feeling warm in his heart.

"How is your mother?" Luo Xiaoxiao asked.

"Not optimistic, but I won't give up."

"Oh, this God really knows how to play tricks on people. Little brother Lin, you have to hold on." As she said this, Luo Xiaoxiao took out a pack of Hongtashan, lit one and started smoking.

Lin Bufan looked at Luo Xiaoxiao, thinking of her future, and a touch of compassion flashed in his eyes, "Smoking less, it's not good for your health."

As he spoke, Lin Bufan put out his cigarette.

"You care about me so much? Do you like me?" Luo Xiaoxiao said with a heartless smile.

"You really know how to be sentimental."

"Don't admit it?" Luo Xiaoxiao strangled Lin Bufan's neck, "Don't think that I don't understand boys' thoughts. At your age, big sisters like us are a fatal temptation. If you admit that you like me, I can think about it.

Yes, when the time comes for you to marry into my house, you won’t have to worry about paying rent.”

Lin Bufan was so uncomfortable that he had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Yes, yes, I like you."

"It would have been better if I had admitted it earlier, hahaha..." Luo Xiaoxiao let go of her hand and said proudly, "Oh, my damn charm."

When I arrived at school, I saw Xu Qing standing at the door.

Lin Bufan walked over.

Xu Qing stepped forward and said, "Morning."

"morning."

"My mother went to the bank just now. After withdrawing the money, she will bring it to you."

"Okay." Lin Bufan nodded slightly and walked into the school.

Xu Qing hurriedly caught up, "I'm going to have a make-up birthday party tonight, can you come?"

"I have to go to the hospital, sorry." Lin Bufan refused.

"Then after you come out of the hospital, I will send a car to pick you up. It's a make-up birthday party anyway, no matter what time it is." Su Qing tried her best to get close to Lin Bufan.

Lin Bufan is not stupid, he knows that Su Qing wants to win over him.

After thinking for a while, Lin Bufan said: "Give me the address of your hotel. I will go there if I have time."

"Okay, okay, I'll write to you right away." As she said that, Su Qing opened her schoolbag to find a pen and paper.

"Go to the classroom and write." Lin Bufan said lightly.

"Oh..." Su Qing agreed softly, and she followed Lin Bufan towards the classroom like a little tail.

Looking at Lin Bufan's back, Su Qing felt a ripple in her heart. Lin Bufan was completely different from before. Before, he was submissive and inconspicuous like a grain of sand in the desert, but now he is like a bright pearl in the night, radiant.

Eye-catching, even the way he walks is so steady.

After arriving in the classroom, Su Qing hurriedly wrote down the address of her hotel and her mobile phone number and handed it to Lin Bufan.

Lin Bufan glanced at it, folded it and put it in his pocket: "I will go if I have time in the evening, you don't need to send a car to pick me up."

"There will be a lot of delicious food tonight, just come, okay?" Su Qing blinked her big eyes, pulled the corner of Lin Bufan's clothes, and delicately released the charm of a shy girl.

If this was an ordinary boy, he would have been shocked a long time ago. However, Lin Bufan is an uncle in boy's clothes and is not interested in this kind of green mango.

"Go back to your seat." Lin Bufan had noticed that the whole class was looking at them sideways.

Su Qing has always been the center of the class and the object of admiration among the boys in the class.

Among them was an admirer named Wang Bin. He felt unhappy when he saw Su Qing being so affectionate to Lin Bufan.

Wang Bin walked to Su Qing's seat, took out two movie tickets flatteringly, and said: "Su Qing, I bought two movie tickets for Titanic. Let's go watch it together after school. This is a global blockbuster.

It just came out, and the seats are in the front row. I asked my uncle who works in the cinema to get such a good seat."

In 1998, the global blockbuster Titanic took the world by storm, and Titanic ranked first at the box office for many years.

In those days, there were not that many movie theaters. You had to queue up to buy newly released blockbusters. Seats were basically random. It was difficult to find a good viewing area.

Su Qing looked at Wang Bin disdainfully and said, "I don't have time. You can find someone else."

Wang Bin looked embarrassed after hearing this. He glanced at Lin Bufan and said jealously: "Su Qing, why are you so close to this poor man recently?"

"Which poor turtle?"

"Of course it's Lin Bufan. Look at the rags all over his body. His family is extremely poor..."

Before Wang Bin could finish his words, Su Qing fell out and said, "Even if he is poor, he is still better than you. Go back to your seat and don't stand in front of me."

Wang Bin's face turned green and white. He glanced at the loose shoelace of his left foot, and a thought flashed through his mind, "Lin Bufan, my shoelace is loose. Come over and tie it for me, and I will give you 10

Yuan.”

All movements in the class stopped, watching what would happen next.

"Wang Bin, don't go too far." Su Qing frowned and stood up.
