Chapter Fifty-Five: It's Not About Money
"A while ago, I felt like I was possessed, and my mind was full of winning money. Thinking that I could pay off my debts, buy good cosmetics, and give money to my parents. In fact, I also had times to win, but after winning, I didn't pay off my debts as soon as possible, but continued to bet. Every time I thought about winning a little more, and then until I lost all of them. After losing, I felt very guilty and regretful, and I swear in my heart that I won't bet anymore. However, after borrowing money, I couldn't bear to eat and continue to bet."
"I owe more and more money and lie more and more frequently. I am really in pain and blame myself. I want to change, I want to go back to the past, but I continue to bet, because I think that only by winning money can I go back to the past. Then I get deeper and deeper, until the end, everyone no longer believes in me and refuses to borrow money from me, even if it is just a dollar. This feeling is like being abandoned by the whole world, but I know clearly that it is all my own burden. I have no money to eat, no money to pay off my debts, no friends, and I am always in my own fantasy!"
"I can't let others know that when I go out and go to work, I have to pretend to be smiling!"
"I struggle all the time, but I can't get out of it. I feel guilty, loneliness, despair and helpless, but I am still fantasizing about getting rich overnight, and even hallucinations often appear."
"This is my state a while ago! I was like my soul was taken away by the devil!"
"Boss, thank you, thank you for pulling me out of the quagmire, thank you for helping me pay back the money."
Chen Xiaoting smiled with tears, "Now, I still eat instant noodles and steamed buns every day, but I feel at ease and sleep soundly as I eat. I can feel my heartbeat. I know I am still alive and I am still alone. After paying back your money in two or three years, I can be the same as before. I am not only alive, but also live with hope."
"Boss, I'm sorry, I lied to you! I'm sorry!"
"You are still young, just don't do it again in the future." Li Zhongnan lit a cigarette and said in a low voice. After much experience, these words could not impress him. However, he could feel the sincerity of the little girl, so he comforted him a little.
Chen Xiaoting hmmed and said, "Only after experiencing it, can you know how to cherish it better. In the future, you will guarantee that you will definitely win money, and I will not touch you again!"
Li Zhongnan smiled and said, "You are right. Only after you have experienced it will you cherish it more. Today you can face yourself bravely, peel off your heart and say these words. I believe you have really come out. Moreover, you will become stronger in the future!"
"Thank you, boss!"
Chen Xiaoting wiped her tears and asked with a smile, "Boss, have you eaten? I'll buy it for you."
Li Zhongnan pulled out a hundred yuan and handed it to her and said, "Make it yourself. I'm tired of eating the gutter oil outside. I'll look at the store and go buy a few vegetables and buy more meat. You're still growing."
"Um!"
Chen Xiaoting took the money and jumped out.
After she came back from buying vegetables, Li Zhongnan wanted to cook, so she pushed him again and said, "Boss, I'll do it, I'll rest."
Li Zhongnan nodded and let her go.
After cooking the food, serving it to the table, washing the dishes and chopsticks, Chen Xiaoting asked him to come and eat together.
Li Zhongnan sat down.
Chen Xiaoting immediately served him a bowl of rice, then picked up a few chopstick dishes for him, and smiled at him, "Boss, eat it, this is the braised pork I made for you."
Li Zhongnan nodded and chewed it, and it tasted good.
While eating, he asked casually: "Xiaoting, why are you addicted to gambling?"
Logically speaking, it is difficult for a high school student to get involved in online gambling. Moreover, even if she accidentally enters those websites while surfing the Internet, she will close them as soon as possible.
Chen Xiaoting smiled awkwardly and explained: "I had a fight with my mother. She cut off my source of income. Then I had no money and borrowed money from a friend. He gave me a website and taught me how to play. At first I won a lot of money, but later~~~"
Li Zhongnan waved his hand and said, "Don't interact with him in the future!"
It's obvious that she doesn't need to continue talking about it.
"Um!"
Chen Xiaoting bit her lip and nodded.
Have a meal.
Seeing that Li Zhongnan was a little more lively, he couldn't help but joke with her.
Seeing that his attitude had improved a little, Chen Xiaoting hesitated for a moment and asked angrily: "Boss, can you delete those? I really won't lie to you in the future. I promise, I will listen to you."
Li Zhongnan shook his head and said, "I'll talk about this later!"
Chen Xiaoting felt a little aggrieved and asked, "Boss, don't you believe me?"
Li Zhongnan didn't answer her words, and started smoking after lit a cigarette.
Chen Xiaoting lowered her head again and bit her red eyes: "Boss, how do you want to delete it? I beg you to delete it!"
Li Zhongnan casually said: "This is the case. When your performance reaches 100 units in a day, I will consider it."
Chen Xiaoting asked in a low voice again: "Can you pay promotion fees?"
It would be fine if she didn't mention this, but when she mentioned it, Li Zhongnan's face turned darker and she said directly: "No. You can find a way yourself."
Then, he got up and walked out.
However, when he was about to come, he turned around and said, "I won't live here in the future. You can return the house outside and move in. Here, there are all air-conditioning and water heaters, which is better than outside. Also, there are induction cookers, rice cookers, refrigerators, etc. You can buy and make whatever you want to eat yourself. Save money and keep up with the nutrition."
"oh!"
Chen Xiaoting responded, feeling complicated again.
Get out of the store.
Li Zhongnan thought for a while and called.
At present, the most urgent task is to build a waste station.
The first step is to buy land.
However, he was not familiar with the village chief of Bangtang Village. If he wanted to buy land there, he had to recommend it to an intermediary.
Half an hour later, a young man in his early twenties came to him in his police uniform. The other party asked directly: "Brother Nan, what are you looking for me!"
Li Zhongnan smiled, handed him a cigarette, and said, "Wenzhi, I have something to ask you for help."
The person who came was Chen Wenzhi, a junior of Li Zhongnan.
The two used to play basketball together, so they are more familiar with each other. After Chen Wenzhi graduated from high school, he worked as a conscript for two years. After returning, he entrusted his connections to a police station in the county and became an auxiliary police officer. In fact, he was just an unemployed urban management officer and he got the police uniforms he wore. However, he was a nephew of the old village chief of Bangtang Village.
Therefore, it is perfect to find him as a referee.
Li Zhongnan told the matter directly.
Chen Wenzhi frowned and said, "Brother Nan, I can't help you with this matter, it's really hard."
Li Zhongnandao: "Money is not a problem!"
Chen Wenzhi said, "This is not a matter of money!"
