Jiang Yujin leaned on the lazy chair on the balcony, looked at the starry night sky, and smiled silently.
It may be a coincidence for others, but for him it requires careful calculation.
Like a burden, he was thrown to his grandmother's house in the countryside by his father. When his grandmother didn't like him very much because of his uncle's family, he understood a truth: you have to control your own life, and it is the most stupid and stupidest thing to put your hope in others.
Unrealistic.
As a result, he began to crazily acquire knowledge and study hard. During this period, he skipped a grade whenever he had the opportunity. He was admitted to the Department of Finance of BGI with the top score in the college entrance examination in the southern province.
During his undergraduate period, he used the various competition prizes and scholarships accumulated in the past few years for investment and financial management. He seized a big bull market and a small bull market, and his income increased dozens of times. Before he graduated, he was dubbed a small businessman in the financial world.
The famous "Golden Touch".
However, all these honors did not bring peace to his heart. During countless sleepless nights, he repeatedly asked himself: What do you want?
An extravagant wish that had been buried deep in his heart quietly emerged.
At that moment, he completely understood: what he missed, what he wanted, what he wanted to share his joys and sorrows with was always deep in his memory, the one who held an umbrella for him and held him gently when no one came to pick him up on a rainy day.
I sent him home through the long, dark alleys, and when he was hospitalized for smoke inhalation, he and my good friends came to see him. We also made him soup that nourished his lungs and calmed his qi. I cooked different meals for him every day and took him to taste them before I left.
The sister who took him to his first foreign fast food meal, watched his first movie, and gave him his first set of juvenile history books...
Xu Yin finished her work and called her brother:
"Has Jiang Jiang contacted you?"
"Jiang Jiang? No! After so many years of missing contact, I suspect he has forgotten me a long time ago, hum! Then I will forget him too!"
"Are you naive?" Xu Yin said funnyly, "He has a reason. I thought he would contact you as soon as possible after getting your mobile phone number..."
"Ah? Ah? Sister, what are you talking about? Have you contacted Jiang Jiang?"
"To be precise, I met him!"
"It's impossible, right? Where did you meet him? He went back to Pingcheng? That's not right! Mom said you have been in the provincial capital recently."
"Yes, Jiang Jiang is also in the provincial capital. He studies at N University and lives in the same apartment as me."
"Ahhhh!!! Is it true? That kid got admitted to N University? Hey, he is really much more promising than me... But after I graduate from the police academy, I have to take the firefighting test, which is the career I most yearn for.
...Sister, have you told Jiang Jiang that I am studying in Ancheng? When will we get together... Forget it, give me his mobile phone number and I will chat with him myself."
Xu Xiao asked for Jiang's mobile phone number and hung up.
Xu Yin: "..."
I also want to ask about his girlfriend. She is only a sophomore. Even if she has a girlfriend, don’t bring her home so quickly. Wouldn’t it be nice to take her girlfriend out on a trip for two people during the National Day? It’s so annoying for her.
Ms. Ma Chunfang was forced to marry her in a series of life-threatening ways.
She escaped from the fate of the heroine's control group and became her brother's control group again?
Xu Yin sighed, and a handsome face inexplicably appeared in her mind. It was the old classmate of her younger brother who had just separated a few hours ago and had not seen each other for twelve years before that...
Xu Yin almost choked on her own saliva.
At this time, the phone rang again.
This is a call from my stupid brother.
"Sister, sister! You would never imagine how awesome Jiang Jiang is! He has actually graduated from undergraduate school and skipped three grades in middle and high school! He came to N University to study as a graduate student, not an undergraduate student! And do you know where he studied for his undergraduate degree?
I won’t scare you to death if I tell you, it’s the University of Washington! The Department of Finance of the University of Washington! His living expenses in the university were all earned by his own stock trading... Oh my God! Compared with him, I am a weakling!"
Xu Yin opened the curtains, leaned against the window and looked at the starry sky and said, "You overestimate yourself. Compared with anyone, you are a noob."
Xu Xiao choked and suddenly thought: "I am no better than you!"
Xu Yin gritted her teeth: "Do you still want to increase the living expenses?"
"Hehe! Sister, I was wrong! By the way, sister, are you coming back for the National Day? Jiang Jiang and I made an appointment to get together during the National Day. If you come back, just pick him up on the way!"
Xu Yin didn't really want to go back, so there was no need to ask why.
"Isn't my mother too busy now? She calls me every three days to urge me to get married. I'm afraid that when I go back, she will put a sack in a sack and take her to a blind date. It will be too much for me."
"Hahaha!" Xu Xiao was overjoyed, "Who asked you to open a chain store of sesame cakes? My mother has now become the proprietress of several branches. She doesn't have to make and sell sesame cakes by herself. She just goes to the store to patrol around every day and that's it. She's free.
Aren’t we just thinking about urging you to get married and have grandchildren? After all, you are the eldest in the family, so who can urge you if not you?”
"..."
Is it her responsibility to co-author it? If I had known better, I wouldn’t have hired people to open a chain store. Ms. Ma Chunfang could have sold the sesame cakes until she retired!
"Speaking of which, sister, you are already twenty-seven, and you haven't met anyone who makes your heart beat in so many years? Not even one? If there was one, our mother would not make it like this... By the way! I heard that now
You can rent them all, why don’t you rent a boyfriend back? Do you need my brother to help find one for you in our school? I’m not telling you, the boys in our school have nothing to say about their bodies..."
This idiot brother stuck his head out and asked his roommate on the lower bunk before hanging up the phone: "Hey, third child, are you free during the National Day?"
"Xu! Xiao!"
Xu Yin stopped him:
"Please be patient! Otherwise, your living expenses will be cut in half!"
"..."
The next day, Xu Yin went to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the new building. She put the information into her backpack, took a bottle of water and opened the door. She saw Jiang Jiang leaning at the elevator entrance, seemingly waiting for her.
"morning!"
"I heard that my sister wants to rent a boyfriend to go home for the holidays?"
"puff……"
Xu Yin just unscrewed the cap of the bottle and took a sip, all of it sprayed out.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and didn't spray on him.
He laughed: "Is this question so funny?"
Xu Yin coughed a few times and waved her hands feebly: "Don't believe Xu Xiao's mouth."
"But I believe it and I'm ready."
Preparation? What preparation?
Xu Yin looked at him suspiciously, and then realized that his dress today was very different from yesterday. Yesterday he was wearing a simple white T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers, but today he was wearing a meticulous shirt, trousers, and leather shoes, and he was holding a rectangular
The box, if I read it correctly, is a tie from a certain brand.
"..."
This is the boyfriend who is applying for a job... No, the fake boyfriend is here?
But the amazing thing is that she didn't feel any disgust at all.
The only troubling thing is——
"At our age..."
"An expert once said: Age does play an important role in marriage, but it is not age that really determines the stability and happiness of a marriage."
"..."
Xu Yin held her forehead and laughed, and raised the information bag in her hand: "Can we talk about this later? I have something urgent to do today."
She was really in a hurry, and the auspicious timing for the groundbreaking ceremony waited for no one!
Jiang Yujin watched the elevator door open and close, lowered his eyes and smiled.
Fortunately, she didn't ask which expert said it, otherwise he really wouldn't know how to answer. He couldn't say it was a slogan painted on the wall by a marriage agency!
