i have a wasteland world

Chapter 2 Rough Agate
Returning to the residence, turning on the light, the house was in a mess.

As expected, the girlfriend who lived together for half a year has long since disappeared.

Chen Xiao took a glance, and the other party's belongings were also taken away.

Despite my expectations, I was still uncomfortable.

He took off his wet clothes and lay on the sofa in a daze.

A few months ago, he was a high-spirited entrepreneurial icon.

Now, he is a frustrated man who is about to go bankrupt.

Money gone, pauper.

Girlfriend ran away too,

Life is impermanent.

……

At this moment, the phone rang.

Mom is calling.

Chen Xiao rubbed his face and raised his spirits.

"Hey, Mom."

"Xiao, I read in the news that the country won't allow training courses?"

Chen Xiao wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start, "Mom, national policy, I can't explain it clearly."

"Hey, doing business is risky. If it doesn't work, come back and take the civil servant exam. You're not very old."

Chen Xiao felt helpless: "Okay, if the company can't continue to operate, I will go back."

……

Long-winded talk for half an hour.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao felt even more tired.

Thinking of him, from an ordinary family background, how much hardship he has endured to this point, only he knows.

After finally getting some grades, before I could take a breather, I encountered the "double reduction" landing...

It can be described as a trick of good fortune.

Who can blame this?
The days have to go on.

……

After thinking wildly for a long time, Chen Xiao felt hungry, so he ordered takeaway.

While waiting, I got up and took a hot shower.

When I went back to the bedroom to change clothes, I saw a beautiful agate rough on the bedside table, with a piece of white paper under it.

The note left by the ex-girlfriend: Chen Xiao, I'm leaving, don't look for me...

Chen Xiao smiled wryly.

The quarrel in the past week had already made him mentally prepared.

But when the moment really came, I still felt like a failure.

Pick up the phone and call your friends.

Drink and sing, wake up, put your troubles aside,

"Old Chen, no...my wife is sick and hospitalized, so I can't leave."

"Chen Xiao, I'm on a business trip and I'm not in Shanghai. I'll talk about it when I get back."

"Old Chen, money is a bit tight recently, do you have enough money there?"

……

After three or four phone calls, Chen Xiao came back to his senses and cursed "grass".

I have become a plague god.

God hates ghosts.

No one even wants to accompany me to eat and drink.

And I won't ask you to borrow money... Thinking of this, Chen Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly.

Do you really have no idea of ​​borrowing money?
If the office cannot be rented out, it will have to drink northwest wind next month.

You can't blame others for thinking too much.

It has always been the icing on the cake, so there is no need to give charcoal in a timely manner.

After crumpling the white paper in his hands and throwing it into the trash can, Chen Xiao turned his head and saw the rough agate stone on the table, glowing with a strange luster under the light.

Hold it in your hand and play with it unconsciously.

He bought it for 70 yuan in the live broadcast room. The picture is beautiful and has the shape of a flower inside.

Although the seller is talking about "one flower, one world, one leaf, one bodhi, the raw agate stone contains infinite vitality..."

Hair is useless.

I usually have nothing to play, and even used it as a prop for couples...

Ambilight, delicate color, warm as jade.

There is a thrilling beauty.

If it can be sold for more than 200 million, Chen Xiao looked at the stone and thought to himself.

At this moment, he found that there seemed to be liquid flowing inside the stone.

So I put it in front of my eyes and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a long time, I didn't see any clues.

Throw it aside and give up unrealistic fantasies.

Zhen Nima is poor and crazy.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Chen Xiao got up and opened the door, and it turned out that the takeaway had arrived.

He took it and said "thank you" casually, and was about to close the door.

Suddenly heard a voice, "Chen Xiao?"

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and carefully looked at the knight in yellow in front of him.

"Feng Yulin?"

"It's really you?" Feng Yulin took off his mask, very excited.

Chen Xiao: "Fuck, I haven't seen you for more than three years, you... Come in, come in."

Feng Yulin thought about it, agreed, and looked into the room while looking at him: "Okay, Lao Chen, you can do it now."

This room does not look low in style.

Exquisite and simple, clear structure, large floor-to-ceiling windows design, exuding luxury.

Chen Xiao smiled wryly, "Have you eaten yet?"

"No."

"That's just right." Chen Xiao took out a bottle of white wine from the wine cabinet.

Feng Yulin looked at the interior decoration and was full of admiration.

Chen Xiao was not short of money before, so naturally he would not treat himself badly.

Although you can't afford a house, it's easy to rent one.

"What's so awesome, it's a rented house."

Feng Yulin sat down: "The rent is also awesome, the rent must be around [-]."

Chen Xiao: "Don't talk about me, why did you deliver food, the young master wants to experience life?"

Feng Yulin sighed: "Experience wool."

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao was curious.

Feng Yulin was different from him.

Absolute rich second generation.

While studying, Chen Xiao handed out leaflets under the scorching sun, and Feng Yulin and his girlfriend were playing on Mount Fuji.

Chen Xiaoyi's shoes cost tens of dollars, and Feng Yulin's shoes cost thousands of dollars. They thought the color was ugly, so they never wore them.

When Chen Xiao was struggling to make a living, there were more than a dozen houses in his family, spread all over the country, and there were two houses in Shanghai alone.

……

Feng Yulin shook his head: "It's nothing, something happened at home."

Seeing this, Chen Xiao didn't ask any more questions.

It is nothing more than a period of wealth and honor dissipated.

With the world people.

Opened the liquor and asked, "Drink something? It's raining so much, take a half-day rest."

Feng Yulin hesitated, then nodded, "Okay, have a drink."

Speaking of it, the relationship between the two in college was not close.

Feng Yulin is naturally arrogant, and it is inevitable that he will show off a little in his life style.

Chen Xiao couldn't get used to it, and just maintained the superficial harmony.

"By the way, Wen Xue has returned to China, did you know?" Feng Yulin said suddenly after taking a sip of his wine.

Chen Xiao paused, then shook his head, "I haven't paid attention to everyone's status for a long time."

Feng Yulin laughed "hehe" twice, but said nothing more.

Chen Xiao raised his glass and touched him, "How much can you earn a month by delivering food?"

Feng Yulin: "It's more than 1, but it's hard work."

"Oh." Chen Xiao responded.

Really desperate, food delivery might be a way out.

Feng Yulin: "Old Chen, what are you doing now?"

Chen Xiao explained his own situation: "...the situation is like this, maybe in a few days...we will become colleagues."

Feng Yulin was dumbfounded when he heard that, "You...you have a bad time."

Chen Xiao shook his head, "It's okay."

Feng Yulin took a sip of his wine, "Don't be discouraged, I believe that the difficulties ahead are nothing."

Chen Xiao laughed, "So confident in me?"

Feng Yulin: "You kid is shameless enough, and you are a person who does things."

Chen Xiao almost spat out the wine in his mouth.

Feng Yulin drank a little too much, his face flushed slightly, "During your freshman year, you chased after Wen Xue, what were you thinking about?"

Chen Xiao smiled, "My fair lady, a gentleman is so sweet."

Feng Yulin squinted at him: "Fake, very fake."

Chen Xiao: "Don't talk about me, talk about you."

Feng Yulin: "I have nothing to say, but my father went bankrupt and jumped off the building, and my mother ran away with someone and owed a lot of debt."

From these few short sentences, Chen Xiao heard a lot of blood and tears, "Oh, what happened?"
