Tong Tong expected that Zhang Yaoyao was going to treat her to dinner. After all, Mr. Zhang loved face. He cried in front of Tong Tong. If he lost someone, he would definitely find a way to make up for it. Besides, Tong Tong was "lost", and he was not completely innocent. Although he didn't say it, Tong Tong knew that Zhang Yaoyao meant to apologize to him.

"No need." Tong Tong said: "We are all very busy. Let's have dinner together one day if you have time!"

"Do you look down on me? Let me tell you, my total number of fans on the Internet now exceeds 10 million, and people call me..."

"The number one short video." Tong Tong said lightly.

"...How do you know? What my uncle told you?"

Alas, Zhang Yaoyao's brain is still not very useful.

Tong Tong explained: "Did you forget? When you talked to my grandfather that day, I stood behind you."

"Oh. Since you know how awesome I am, you can't ignore me."

"I won't ignore you." Tong Tong seemed to coax the child: "Your 'Haruno', I've been paying attention. To be honest, you're doing better and better."

Zhang Yaoyao couldn't hide his complacency, but said, "I don't need your affirmation. Of course, you affirm it, I'm quite happy."

Tong Tong laughed.

"What's wrong? What do you mean by laughing?"

Just like ten years ago, Zhang Yaoyao hated others to ignore him the most, and even more so. Tong Tong knew his thoughts well and said, "It's not interesting, it's just a touching feeling. I really don't need you to treat you, nor do you need to repent. However, if your parents really do something that I'm sorry for me and you don't apologize, I will despise you for the rest of my life."

“…”

Taking advantage of Zhang Yaoyao's confusion, Tong Tong hung up the phone. Since he heard about Gu Meirong's deeds, he has been holding his anger in his heart. What should we do to let her tell the truth about that year? Her character is so bad, how could she admit the wrong thing she had done?

Hao Mengyuan is right. Bad people often do bad things for life. It is not that people get older and their temperaments will improve. Gu Meirong is a good example.

There are a lot of things to solve, and the most important thing is to make money. Because Tong Tong frequently skipped work, the income from the print shop last month was even enough to pay the rent. This was the first time he had a fiscal deficit since he ran the shop. In front of his employees, he felt that he couldn't raise his head.

"Boss, will your salary be paid normally this month?"

This is the most concerned issue of Xiao Jia. His eyes were so eager to see. Tong Tong took out his cell phone and transferred 2,500 yuan to him without saying a word. Xiao Jia was very happy and said politely: "If it is too difficult, it's okay not to give it to him for the time being."

"How about you give it back to me?"

Xiao Jia ran away in a flash.

Since moving into his grandfather's house, Tong Tong's financial situation has improved greatly. Even so, he is far from being "rich and generous". Dean Li called him and said that Haida has no office to rent out for the time being, and it will take until school starts in March next year to confirm whether it is available. Hearing this news, Tong Tong was relieved - when he rented the storefront of this printing store, he first paid the school a deposit of 100,000 yuan. If he rented another office, he would definitely need a large deposit. He could not afford the money for the time being, so it would be okay to wait.

Alas, there is a long way to go to achieve financial freedom.

January 2020 was almost half over. That day, Hao Mengyuan came to the store to find him and asked him if he could accompany her to Sun Jixiang's house. Hao Mengyuan said distressedly: "I... I really didn't think about how to face him. He has been decadent for so many years, and now he wants to face life actively, and I can't hit him anymore."

"Even if you don't marry his brother, you can still be nice to him. It won't be possible to tell him like this?"

Hao Mengyuan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "It's different. He would say that if you don't enter the house, you will become an outsider sooner or later. In fact... that's true. After breaking up with his brother, I'll go to see him less frequently - but if you're busy on weekends, you don't have to force me, I'll ask someone to accompany me."

"It's nothing. I haven't seen him for a long time. I happened to invite him to a meal."

When he saw Sun Jixiang again, Tong Tong couldn't believe his eyes - Sun Jixiang actually stood up by his crutches. Although he could only move a few steps slowly, this was a big breakthrough.

With the effect of shocking everyone, Sun Jixiang shook his hair proudly: "Don't admire me so much. As long as I get serious, nothing can defeat me."

"This... this is too incredible." Tong Tong said: "You have been to the rehabilitation treatment center for so long, but it may not be better. What magic pill has you taken?"

Sun Jixiang kept a secret: "Probably... it is a magic pill called 'love'."

Now Tong Tong and Hao Mengyuan's pupils were even more shaking.

No matter how the two of them asked questions, Sun Jixiang refused to tell the truth. In fact, Tong Tong knew very well that he accompanied Wu Hailan to Grandma Hua's house a few days ago, but Qian Qian did not go with him, saying that he wanted to stay in Hong Kong City to reunite with his classmates. Qian Qian Qian and her classmates were not that close, and probably nothing to meet. But that day she posted a message on her Moments, positioning it in a large shopping center near Sun Jixiang's home.

Tong Tong guessed based on this that Qian Qianxi probably visited Sun Jixiang and encouraged Sun Jixiang to stand up. It was no secret that Sun Jixiang liked Qian Qianxi. Only when he was inspired by the goddess would he force himself like this.

Sun Jixiang made another considerable royalties, and this time he was sure to buy a house. He didn't plan to go out to see the house on the weekend, but Tong Tong came together. Such a "servant" is not in vain. It is better to have a day to choose a day, so Sun Jixiang decided to take a look at a few properties he cared about. He said that his demand for buying a house is not as much as others, as long as there is an elevator, it is not noisy, and it is convenient for his mother to buy vegetables. As for whether it is a school district house, the transportation is inconvenient, and those who are far away from his life, he will not consider it for the time being.

Tong Tong joked: "Are you going to have signs of 'love'? Don't you consider getting married in the future? As long as you get married, you must consider the school district housing."

"It's just love, but it may not be able to really get to the point of getting married. It should be said that there is almost no hope of getting married. As for the children, I don't even think about it."

...

Sun Jixiang can be said to be sober in the world, but this soberness makes Tong Tong feel distressed.

The reason why Sun Jixiang wanted to buy a house as soon as possible was that he wanted to make his mother easier. Moving into the elevator room would make his trip much more convenient. Hao Mengyuan joked: "There is no need to buy a house because of this. At the rate of recovery now, you will probably be able to walk soon."

Sun Jixiang sighed again and said dimly: "No matter how hard you break through, the human body still has its limits."

...

He was so awake, lived too clearly, and saw everything very thoroughly. As for the limits he said, Tong Tong also felt deeply. For example, Lao Niu woke up from his drowsy state and tried hard to speak every day, no matter how hard he tried, he still had a big tongue. He wanted to stand up, but he ended in failure. He had been a soldier and a policeman, and his willpower was strong, but even if he was strong, he still had countless difficulties.

Sun Jixiang said: "In addition to "Journey to the West", the four great classics end with tragedy. Those great writers can see thoroughly, and no matter how optimistic they are, their lives end with tragedy. I am also a great writer, so I can see more thoroughly."

His remarks made Tong Tong and Hao Mengyuan feel sad, as if their destiny would become a tragedy. Sun Jixiang said again: "Don't care too much. I'm so tragic. Don't you face life optimistically and positively?"

After seeing the house for a day, Tong Tong took him to Sun's house for barbecue in the evening. Sun Jixiang insisted on treating him. Tong Tong advised him to save money to buy a house. Sun Jixiang replied, "Don't you still have to save money to treat your adoptive father?"

Hao Mengyuan interrupted, "Don't know Sun Leon yet? Tong Tong is now Changhe's young master!"

"Shhh, low-key, low-key!"

But Sun Jixiang didn't care and raised his chin proudly: "It seems that you still accept your grandfather's stinky money?"

Tong Tong didn't care at all and smiled and said, "Do you want that stinky money?"

"You don't mind giving me more!"

Everyone laughed together, and as they smiled, Sun Jixiang nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that when people live, good things will happen occasionally."

"Okay, concentrate on eating barbecue and stop talking about the big truths." Tong Tong said: "If you are really happy for me, you should have a drink for these good things."

Hao Mengyuan didn't have any "good things" to happen for the time being, and she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Although it was her brother who was in love with her, Sun Jixiang still felt sorry for her. "It's strange, why did that guy Sun Ping'an go to the United States and get quieter? Will he suffer from mental illness because he is too lonely?"

Sun Ping'an is a straight man in science and engineering. He can't post a few Moments in a year, and he still forwarded the links. After he arrived in the United States, he only posted a photo of the road. At that time, the night was dark and the straight road was extending towards infinite darkness. Although Sun Ping'an's photography skills were average, the photo had a strong infectiousness, making people feel very lonely and depressed.

Sun Ping'an only videos with his family once every ten days and half a month. He showed his family the living environment. It was very simple, so simple that Sun's mother was worried. She usually reads books and newspapers and knew that the United States was not peaceful. She was worried that her son rented a low-rent area. What should she do if guns and drugs are flooded there and the security environment is worrying?

Sun Ping'an didn't explain much, and he was not good at explaining. He said that his school was in a very rural place, and he could see a large piece of corn field when he went out. He emphasized that his colleagues around him were all good, and the people he met were also good, and there was nothing to worry about.

He was originally indifferent and clear-minded and did not communicate with others. When he arrived at that environment, he could do research without distractions, and it seemed... it was really good.

But there was something strange about it. Hao Mengyuan chewed the roasted corn mechanically and murmured: "Why do I think he is lying to us?"

Sun Jixiang suddenly became nervous: "You mean, he was actually having a bad life? Did he make up the illusion of those quiet years and deceive us?"
