At first, the skinny young man was very angry. He would fight with anyone who dared to call him "Skinny Monkey". However, as he grew older, the skinny young man's tolerance also increased, and he gradually accepted "Skinny Monkey".
"In fact, there is nothing you can do if you don't accept this nickname. People around him call him Skinny Monkey, and even his relatives and friends call him that. What can the skinny young man do? Move to the mountains and live in seclusion? Never see anyone again for the rest of his life?
"I...I..." The skinny young man's face suddenly turned red: "Fang Min, although I am ugly, my heart is beautiful, and I am sincere to you. I really like you and want to take care of you for the rest of my life.
Yes, as the saying goes: When choosing a man, you should not just look at the appearance, but also look at the man’s heart. Only a man with a beautiful heart can truly make a woman happy!”
"Happiness?" Fang Min smiled, pointed at the skinny young man's nose and cursed: "How dare you brazenly say give me happiness? What do you want to give me happiness? Look at you, you are almost thirty years old
, I’m still doing odd jobs in the archives, and with a salary of several hundred yuan a month, do you dare to say that it can give me happiness?”
"I...I'm not very good now...but I will work hard!" The thin man said hurriedly: "As long as you give me enough time, I will definitely become prosperous!"
"How much time do you want me to give you? One year? Two years? Ten years? Twenty years?" Fang Min said sarcastically: "Gao, please listen to me. From now on, you are not allowed to pester me again."
I, even if I marry a pig, I will not marry a loser like you!" After saying that, Fang Min strode away without looking back.
At this moment, the skinny young man's mood was just like the sun that had just been covered by dark clouds. He was aggrieved and depressed. Looking at Fang Min's back as he walked away quickly, anger slowly rose in the skinny young man's chest. He risked being fired by his superiors.
He went to buy chestnuts for Fang Min, but Fang Min didn't appreciate it at all, and even ridiculed the thin young man as a toad who wanted to eat swan meat. Even though the thin young man had a good temper, he was so angry that he raised the chestnuts in his hand and thought
He threw it to the ground hard, but after thinking about it, he put the chestnut down again: "How can I throw away the chestnuts that I bought with so much hard work? Since others don't like them, just keep them for yourself!
"
"Well said!" A man's voice cheered from behind.
The skinny young man was startled and turned around quickly. When he saw the face of the man who spoke clearly, the face of the skinny young man suddenly changed: "Deputy Mayor Ma..." The man standing behind him was none other than the newly appointed deputy mayor.
The long horse is free and easy.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled at the thin young man: "I saw everything that just happened."
The skinny young man's face turned red and he said sheepishly: "Deputy Mayor Ma, you are laughing..."
"Do you really like that girl named Fang Min just now?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Yes...yes." The thin young man nodded awkwardly.
"What do you like about her?" Ma Xiaoyao continued to ask.
"Fang Min is very beautiful, with a good figure and a good family background." The thin young man hesitated and replied.
"You can't just look at someone's appearance when you like them." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "That Fang Min just now had a bad temper and was too ambitious. Even if you were to be with her in the end, you wouldn't be happy."
"Deputy Mayor Ma is right." The thin man sighed softly: "Fang Min is in a good mood. She doesn't like me at all, and I... can't control her. From now on, I will not pursue her again.
Fang Min, if there is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, I don’t believe I can’t find a wife!”
"It's good if you can figure it out." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "By the way, I was so focused on chatting with you that I forgot to ask your name."
"My name is Gao Hanlin. I work in the archives as a clerk." The thin young man said hurriedly.
"Gao Hanlin... this name is quite good, it sounds very literary." Ma Xiaoyao praised a few times.
"My father got this name. I hope I can do something good in the future. Unfortunately...I failed to live up to my expectations and let my father down." Gao Hanlin sighed.
"Don't be discouraged." Ma Xiaoyao reached out and patted Gao Hanlin on the shoulder: "You are still young now and have a lot of time to struggle. As long as you work unremittingly, you will surely get ahead one day... It's getting late.
, I'm going home, we'll talk when we have time." After encouraging Gao Hanlin for a few words, Ma Xiaoyao left.
Looking at Ma Xiaoyao's leaving figure, Gao Hanlin sighed softly in his heart. This deputy mayor Ma looks a few years older than me, but he has already become the deputy mayor. I have to work harder.
, strive to catch up with Vice Mayor Ma as soon as possible.

foreign.
Inside the ancient castle.
Johnny sat on the chair, his face was ashen, and he was secretly sulking.
"Dong dong dong..."
Suddenly there was a slight knock at the door.
Johnny calmed down his irritable mood, then raised his head and said: "Come in, the door is unlocked."
"Crunch!"
The door was pushed open, and a foreign man with blond hair and blue eyes walked in quickly. This foreign man had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a tall body. He was a rare and beautiful man. This foreign man walked quickly to Johnny,
He whispered: "Deacon Johnny, there are still people secretly watching you around your residence. If you want to leave here, you will definitely be discovered."
"boom"
Johnny slapped his palm on the table, causing the tea cup to shake: "Damn Wan Changjian! He still doesn't trust me! He did it to his grandmother!" Since Johnny was released, Wan Changjian has restricted
Wan Changjian also sent a group of men to hide in the dark to monitor Johnny.
"Deacon Wan Changjian is really bullying people too much." The foreign man said angrily: "In terms of rank, Deacon Johnny and Deacon Wan Changjian are the same. Deacon Wan Changjian has no power to restrict your freedom!"
Johnny clenched his fists, and his eyes burst out with stern lights: "Go on, I will break out of the castle tonight! Go to China to rescue my Alice!"
The foreign man was startled and hurriedly persuaded: "Deacon Johnny, please don't be impulsive. Most of the people in the castle are now at the command of Deacon Wan Changjian. If you want to force a breakout and leave the castle, you will definitely pay a heavy price."
The price...and it may not be successful!"
"I know it will be dangerous to break out now, but I... really can't wait any longer!" Johnny said with a ferocious expression: "My Alice is suffering in China. If I go one day later, my Alice will suffer one more day.
It’s painful, I really can’t wait any longer!!!” At this point, Johnny raised his fist and slammed it on the table, his eyes were extremely red and growled: “As long as I can go to China to rescue Alice, I’ll give it a try.
It’s worth taking this life!”
"Deacon Johnny, you have to think twice!" the foreign man said urgently: "You know you are worried about Miss Alice, but you can't act recklessly. If you forcefully leave the castle now, you will definitely be strongly criticized by Deacon Wan Changjian.
If you block it, even if you successfully break out in the end, the people around you will definitely suffer heavy trauma, and by then you will not have the strength to rescue Miss Alice."
Although Johnny was very angry, he still had reason. Of course he knew that the foreign man was telling the truth. He glared at the foreign man fiercely: "Then what do you think I should do?"
"Be patient for a while longer..." Before the foreign man could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Johnny.
"What? Make me endure it!" Johnny's eyes widened.
"The Chinese have a saying: A little impatience leads to a big plan! Deacon Johnny, please be patient for a while longer. After Deacon Wan Changjian relaxes his vigilance, you can then look for an opportunity to leave the castle and go to China to rescue Miss Alice... What happened recently...
For a while, you should contact Deacon Wan Changjian more often and let Deacon Wan Changjian relax his vigilance towards you..."
Johnny gritted his teeth and was silent for a long time, then closed his eyes for the last time: "I listen to you, just be patient for a while longer. I hope that bitch Wan Changjian can relax his vigilance against me soon!" At this point, Johnny said
There was a trace of sadness on the deacon's face: "Alice, if you hold on for a few more days, I will definitely go to China to save you! You must hold on!"
…
A week passed unknowingly. During this week, Ma Xiaoyao met Gao Hanlin at the door of the office building every evening after get off work, and then briefly chatted with Gao Hanlin. After a few days of contact, Ma Xiaoyao developed a liking for Gao Hanlin. A new understanding, this Gao Hanlin looks quite honest, but in fact he is very thoughtful, eloquent, and very good at flattering.
In fact, Ma Xiaoyao knew very well that he would meet Gao Hanlin every evening after get off work. This was definitely not a coincidence, but a deliberate design by Gao Hanlin. Gao Hanlin calculated the time for Ma Xiaoyao to leave, and then specially waited for Ma Xiaoyao at the door of the office building. , In order not to make Ma Xiaoyao suspicious, Gao Hanlin pretended to meet by chance. His purpose of doing this was very simple, that is, he wanted to attract Ma Xiaoyao's attention and get close to Ma Xiaoyao's big tree.
That morning, Gao Hanlin sneaked into Ma Xiaoyao's office and said that he had something very important to report to Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao asked Gao Hanlin to sit down, and then poured a glass of water for Gao Hanlin with his own hands, which made Gao Hanlin very flattered.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Ma Xiaoyao asked with a smile.
Gao Hanlin sat on a chair, with his back straight, holding a water glass in both hands, and said with a serious expression: "Deputy Mayor Ma, I have a very important thing to report to you..." At this point, Gao Hanlin leaned forward.
He stepped forward, then lowered his voice and said, "I overheard that Vice Mayor Qin and Vice Mayor Lu were going to join forces to deal with you, and they also wanted to give you a stumbling block and make you look embarrassed."
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "Gao Hanlin, don't talk nonsense!"
