i'm not a bad man

Chapter 171 Go to BJ
I didn't expect that Zuo Xiaowei's reason for not going to BJ with me was to prepare for joining the aristocratic school opened by Guan Yubo's family.I have never objected to my girlfriend having friends of the opposite sex, but he cannot appear everywhere in my girlfriend's life, so when Zuo Xiaowei told me the truth, I felt like I had crossed a line. But I don't know who crossed the line. Taking this feeling as an extension, I am afraid that the confidence to fight Chen Linqi to death was also given by Guan Yubo.

It is not difficult to understand why Zuo Xiaowei is unwilling to face Chen Linqi with a compromise attitude. The worst result is nothing more than compensation of 150 million. This 150 million is an astronomical figure for Zuo Xiaowei and me, but for Guan Yu Bo, he can afford it; of course he can afford it, but can Zuo Xiaowei afford this favor?
If there are too many similar favors, can the relationship between two people remain just between friends?

These are all question marks in my heart, but I don't want to ask them at this time, because it is a sign of cowardice for me. If questioning can change everything, then all this I care about will not happen at all; If questioning can't change everything, then everything I care about will happen sooner or later.

Admittedly, this is a bit hard to say, but people who have had emotional experiences and struggled painfully during this experience will definitely understand.

……

This call was made by Guan Yubo to Zuo Xiaowei. They seemed to have agreed to meet somewhere, so after the call ended, Zuo Xiaowei left, only telling me to remember to have lunch.

……

I haven't completely gotten rid of the pain of hangover. I just feel dizzy, so I don't order takeout. I just lie in bed, sleep for a while, wake up for a while, and so on...

Until I heard footsteps in the house, I thought it was Zuo Xiaowei who had come back, but it was her uncle. He entered my room. Out of respect, I sat up from the bed and called him after Zuo Xiaowei. Brother-in-law".

"Have everything been moved in?"

"They've all moved in."

"Is your stay comfortable? I specially vacated this room in Chaoyang for you."

"Very comfortable."

Zuo Xiaowei's uncle looked at me, then smiled and said to me: "Look, you don't have to live here for a day or two. Do you have to pay some rent?"

I'm not a person who doesn't understand the world, so from the moment I moved in, I had already thought about buying something for her uncle, and it must be something sincere. The reason why I didn't want to pay rent was because I thought he was Zuo Xiaowei's uncle seemed to be a bit unprepared if I took the initiative to negotiate the rent, so when he and I took the initiative to negotiate the rent, I was surprised, but suddenly I felt a lot more relaxed, because some things are really important when talking about money. It's more practical and relaxed than talking about favors. Just because I have always heard that the small town is a place that pays special attention to favors, I came up with the idea of ​​​​giving gifts instead of paying rent.

"I definitely have to pay rent. Uncle, how much do you think is appropriate?"

"Let's not calculate it based on the market price. Just pay it half a year, ten thousand at a time. If I rent this house, this location, and this environment to others, I won't agree to it even if it's not even ten thousand and a half." .”

"It's okay, uncle...I'll give it to you according to the market price. Let's add WeChat first, and I'll transfer it to you using WeChat."

After saying that, I opened WeChat and handed him the QR code for adding friends. He was stunned for a moment, then added my WeChat account with a smile, and I immediately transferred 5000 yuan to him. I thought we could continue chatting for a while, but after receiving the money, he actually left my room without looking back, and then went out again, as if he came back this time just to have sex with me. Rent... I couldn't help but shake my head and smile. Even in a small town, there are still thousands of people with different faces. After two contacts, I just feel that this person is full of business atmosphere!

……

Just when I got up and prepared to have something to eat, Chang Yuli called me and said that if I had nothing to do in the afternoon, he would like to go to BJ with me in the afternoon; I am not a person who likes to change plans easily, but Looking at the empty room, I thought of Zuo Xiaowei who was missing, and looked at myself in the mirror with nothing to do, and agreed to Chang Yuli.

10 minutes later, Chang Yuli drove over. We discussed it and finally decided to drive to Luoyang first, and then take the high-speed train from Luoyang to BJ. This is also the most efficient way to travel, and we will arrive at about [-] p.m. We can get to BJ one day earlier than originally planned.

……

At the train station, Chang Yuli and I were sitting in the waiting hall, waiting for the 10:[-] train bound for BJ. [-] minutes before the train pulled into the station, Zuo Xiaowei finally called me. She was full of joy. He said to me: "Han Chao, I am very reliable as a teacher. I met with the principal of the school this afternoon. He thinks there is no problem at all teaching high school with my ability. I will give my job tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Prepare the materials, and then go to class to try out the feeling. The main reason is that I don’t have much teaching experience yet. If I can adapt to the class, they will hire me... I have long-term plans for this matter, if I can be hired. , I plan to teach and take the teacher qualification certificate exam at the same time. When I get the teacher qualification certificate, I will ask my parents to find connections and transfer to a public school. Once I enter a public school, many things will be guaranteed."

I understood clearly that Zuo Xiaowei planned to use the private school run by Guan Yubo's family as her springboard, and her willingness to go to public schools to teach showed that she was determined to stay in the small town; therefore, I even It is necessary to go to BJ to talk to Chen Linqi and try to get a smaller compensation without filing a lawsuit.

I let out a breath, not wanting to hurt her enthusiasm and fantasy about the future, so I smiled and replied, "You have a very far-reaching plan."

"Of course, I actually don't want to ask Guan Yubo for help, but the two of us can't just sit here and live in vain. I have to find a job first to make a living. The salary there is quite good. During the internship, he earns 7000 yuan a month. , the consumption in this small town is not high, it is enough for the two of us for the time being... There is one more thing I want to discuss with you. I plan to sell my car first, then rent a house, buy some music equipment, and help Do you think it will work if you start a training class?"

"It's easy to open a training class, but the main problem is the source of students. How can we find students?" "You are stupid, otherwise you think why I am so anxious to go to school to teach music?... If there are students who are interested in musical instruments, If you are interested, I can introduce you to the students."

"Isn't this against the rules?"

"Don't worry, private schools are not that strict...then let's just settle the matter."

Zuo Xiaowei and I have known each other for a long time, and I never thought that she would plan something very carefully. But after returning to the small town, she seemed to be a different person, as long as it was about the two of us. Before I even thought about the future, she had already taken the lead, so I had to follow her lead. I am not a person who likes to be planned by others, but I cannot deny Zuo Xiaowei's sincerity. She wanted me to stay in the small town and that we could live a good life together, which made me feel a little conflicted.

Zuo Xiaowei seemed to like this rhythm very much. She seemed to have endless things to say about life in a small town. Before I could speak, she said to me again: "By the way, if my brother-in-law asks you for something, You don’t care about the rent, you know?”

"I already paid him rent."

"When did this happen?"

"Not long after you left, he came back."

"How much did he ask you for?"

"He asked me for [-] yuan, saying it was half a year's rent, and then said that based on the market conditions in your small town, half a year's rent would be [-] yuan. I didn't want to take advantage, so I gave him [-] yuan."

"I'm really afraid of what will happen. My mother paid him the down payment for his house. He just asked him to pay off the mortgage. He has already been overdue for three months. I just helped him pay off the three-month mortgage. Besides, renting a house in a small town is not that expensive. Renting out his entire house only costs about 5000 yuan a year. You have only been here for half a year and it is only one room, but you actually gave him [-] yuan!... It’s crazy. Got it!"

I have never taken money too seriously, but I still felt a little uncomfortable knowing that I was being played. But remembering that the other person was Zuo Xiaowei's biological uncle, I still restrained my emotions, smiled and said: "It's not an outsider, just give it to him."

"No, absolutely not... He has a bad habit of gambling. The money given to him was also used by him to gamble. I have to get it back from him."

As soon as Zuo Xiaowei said that he had a gambling habit, I completely understood where the market spirit in him that I didn't like came from. I have come into contact with people who have bad gambling habits. It's impersonal. Don't say I'm just Zuo Xiaowei's boyfriend. Even if I'm married to Zuo Xiaowei now, he will still cheat me when he should.

Thinking about it this way, I didn't take the loss to heart. Instead, I gave Zuo Xiaowei a few words to tell her that there was no need to worry about the money anymore. At worst, she should be more careful in the future and not give him a chance to cheat.

Zuo Xiaowei didn't seem to want to mention her obscure uncle. After a brief silence, she changed the subject and said to me: "I've finished everything I'm doing. What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you. Do."

"Xiao Chang is in a hurry to go to BJ. We are now at the train station in Luoyang."

Zuo Xiaowei fell into silence again. This time, it took her a long time before she said to me: "Okay, the matter is done, come back soon."

"Well, I won't stay in BJ for too long."

Zuo Xiaowei replied half-jokingly, half-seriously: "If you hadn't given my uncle half a year's rent, I wouldn't have believed you would come back... Han Chao, you know, I really want to live in a small town." , it will become what we imagined before, so as long as there is a little hope, I will spare no effort to do it... However, I can feel that you don’t like it very much. This is the source of my anxiety. If you have something in your heart You must tell me your thoughts or dissatisfaction, you know?... I don’t want to let details defeat my love. As long as we can still communicate, I will try my best.”

"Don't think too much. So far, I have not lost interest in the small town, and I am not a person who likes to force myself. Otherwise, I would not have run away from home. So, once I feel forced here, I I will tell you, but I really don’t feel this way now... Although there are people like Yu Bo in the small town, there are also friends like Chang Yuli who can get along with each other. As long as you are not plotted by bad people, you can make many friends. , maybe I can also make a career here with you. Once I have a career, I have a foundation, and there will be nothing I can’t do in the future.”

……

After finishing the call with Zuo Xiaowei, the high-speed train had already arrived at the station. After Chang Yuli and I checked our tickets, we officially started our BJ trip.

After the train started, I sent a message to Qin Minhong: "Sister Minhong, I am already on the train to BJ. I will arrive at BJ around eight o'clock. I want to talk to you about Xiaowei."

"Hey, I'm afraid it won't work today. There is an awards show tonight, and I have to attend it with Lu Xi... How about this? You go shopping around first to experience BJ's nightlife, and we'll find a time to meet again tomorrow."
