Chapter 9 Old classmates visit
This call came at the wrong time, because he didn't know if it was about work, so Linghu Shuo had to pick up the phone and take a look.
The caller ID said harassment, and Linghu Shuo hung up with an unhappy look on his face.
"Why are these people so boring? You just happened to call me right now."
Linghu Shuo complained and was about to put down his phone when another call came.
"What the hell is this...Brother Hui again?"
Linghu Shuo looked at the name of his former classmate Song Hui on the caller ID, frowned slightly and muttered a few words.
"After graduation, we have had less and less contact. We have had no contact at all for half a year, right? What day is it today? Why did Brother Hui think of contacting me?"
Although I can't think of anything unexpected, I can't help but answer the phone call from my old classmate.
"Hello?" Linghu Shuo answered the phone and asked tentatively.
A response came quickly from the other side of the phone, and the voice was much more enthusiastic than Linghu Shuo's.
"Young Master Linghu, is that you?"
When Linghu Shuo was in college, there happened to be a popular martial arts drama on the air. Because of the same surname, the nickname Linghu Shaoxia became a joking name among his roommates.
The familiar title brought back some happy memories of the past in Linghu Shuo, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised.
"Brother Hui, it's really you! We haven't contacted each other for a few days. What have you been busy with recently?"
"I haven't been busy at all. I just went back to my hometown a while ago. I recently came to Jiangzhou City to work. I remembered that you were also in Jiangzhou, so I contacted you as soon as I settled down. I have time to come out and get together with my old classmate.
Get together?"
The grand joy of meeting old friends again overwhelmed Linghu Shuo's head, and he responded as soon as his brain became hot.
"I have to make time even if I don't have time! Seriously, you should have contacted me as soon as you arrived in Jiangzhou!"
Linghu Shuo got carried away chatting with his old friend. Wangcai on the side pricked up his ears to listen to the chat and thought of what was ahead of Linghu Shuo.
"Xiao Shuo, Xiao Shuo!"
"What are you doing?" Linghu Shuo covered the phone and looked at Wangcai with a frown, "I'm chatting with my friends, what are you calling me for at this time?"
Wangcai said quietly: "Friendly reminder, you now have no money!"
If you don't open the brain pot, which pot should you mention...
Linghu Shuo's brows furrowed even more: "Can you please stop asking me for money? I'm at odds with the money!"
Wangcai shrugged his shoulders and turned away.
Linghu Shuo looked at Wangcai walking away and sighed in annoyance. Then when he was about to take away his hand covering the phone receiver, he suddenly thought - there was not even a coin in the balance. Let alone treating guests to dinner, it seemed that he didn't even have transportation to go out.
That's a problem.
It’s hard to move without money!
Linghu Shuo felt flustered for a while, and when he heard the confirmation sounds of "Hey, hello" coming from the phone, he quickly put the phone back to his ear.
"Hey, I'm here, I'm here."
"What happened to Shuozi just now?"
"Nothing...ah, my dog knocked something over. I just took a look anxiously."
Wangcai stopped while walking, with a black look on his face and complained: "You are trying to blame me again."
Song Hui on the other side of the phone smiled and said again what Linghu Shuo didn't hear just now.
"Shuozi, I just came to Jiangzhou and I'm not familiar with the place. You can choose a place for us to get together."
"Ah...choose a place."
Linghu Shuo felt that his throat was a little tight and he coughed twice. However, during the coughing process, he came up with a good way to resolve the embarrassment.
"Hey! Let's not go outside, come to my house!"
"Go to your home?"
"That's right! You have to be careful outside. Come to my house for dinner and let's have a good time together!"
Song Hui, who was on the other end of the phone, thought for a while and finally agreed. He asked for the location of Linghu Shuo's house and agreed to come immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Linghu Shuo leaned against the sofa and let out a sigh of relief. However, the next second, the burn marks on the top of the wall made Linghu Shuo sit up straight.
Looking around nervously, Linghu Shuo held his head with both hands and said to himself: The house is in a mess now. It would be very embarrassing for old classmates to see it!
Call Song Hui and tell him that something happened at the moment and we will meet up another day?
This unrealistic idea flashed through Linghu Shuo's mind, just thinking about it.
"Song Hui won't laugh at me, right?"
Linghu Shuo thought about it with a headache, and inadvertently remembered an old incident.
"By the way! Song Hui also borrowed two thousand yuan from me when I was in school, saying he would pay me back when he had enough money after the holidays. Later I forgot and he didn't mention it!"
There is actually a "little treasure" hidden in my memory 2333...
Logically speaking, the two thousand yuan was already in the past. I didn't remember to ask for it at the time, and I shouldn't ask for it now. But looking at Linghu Shuo's current situation, I couldn't bear to do without this money.
Linghu Shuo sighed, got up and simply cleaned up the house, gritting his teeth and secretly saying: In order to survive until next month, I must find a way to get the two thousand yuan back!
...
An hour later, Song Hui arrived downstairs at Linghu Shuo's house, sweating.
Standing at the door of the building, Song Hui brushed his hair on his cell phone, straightened his collar later, and dusted off the leather shoes under his feet. After everything was done, Song Hui stretched out his hand to open the door, but the door was not open.
move.
Song Hui realized that he needed a key card to open the door, and hurriedly sent a message to Linghu Shuo.
Upstairs, Linghu Shuo finished cleaning briefly and kept looking at his cell phone, preparing how to get back the old debt. As soon as he saw the message from Song Hui, he rushed to the door and opened it.
The door lock clicked open, Song Hui adjusted it again and then opened the door and went upstairs.
The two people on the first floor and the other downstairs had their own concerns. One took the elevator upstairs with a heavy heart, and the other guarded the door with anxiety.
In less than half a minute, the two people met.
"Brother Hui!"
"Hey! Isn't this Young Hero Linghu!"
When they first met, both of them were delighted.
"Finally we meet again, come in quickly."
Linghu Shuo quickly invited Song Hui into the room and led Song Hui all the way to the sofa in the living room to sit down.
Song Hui looked around with a smile on his face and said, "Xiao Shuo, your home is not bad, but... why is there a burnt hole in the sofa?"
Linghu Shuo's smile froze and he replied: "Ah...it's burnt by cigarette ashes, yes, it's burnt by cigarette ashes. Brother Hui, are you thirsty? I'll get you a glass of water."
Linghu Shuo, who was afraid of spilling the beans, quickly adjusted his facial expression by going to pour water, while Song Hui, who was sitting on the sofa, took advantage of Linghu Shuo's absence to secretly glance at the memo on his phone.
In the kitchen, Linghu Shuo was looking for bottled water from the refrigerator. Wangcai walked over leisurely, sticking out his tongue at Linghu Shuo in a well-behaved manner.
"Xiao Shuo, I'm hungry. Please cook for me."
"hungry?"
Linghu Shuo turned to look at Wangcai with disbelief.
"Didn't you just eat two bags of dried meat and are you hungry again so quickly?"
Wangcai let out a smelly burp.
"That's a snack. How can a snack be eaten as a meal?"
Linghu Shuo seriously suspected that Wangcai had overheard the aunt downstairs teaching her children.
"Fan...your dog food is in the corner! Pour it out yourself!" Linghu Shuo said, taking out two bottles of drinks from the refrigerator, closing the refrigerator door and going back, not forgetting to warn: "Remember not to eat too much! You
The size is almost as big as that of your distant relative, the Alaskan pig!"
Wangcai acted extremely well-behaved, nodded and said, "Yeah, I know, and please don't call me fat in disguise."
Linghu Shuo shook his head and returned to the living room carrying the drink.
After Linghu Shuo returned, Wangcai smiled evilly and dove into the bag of dog food.
