Chapter 15 Showdown

Before going to bed, Xiong Yaqian sent him a message as usual.

The other party's initiative in the past few days is almost completely different from the previous one. He always says good night and good morning, and sometimes even in the middle of the night, he will say something that makes him unable to sleep.

It was obvious that she was quite eager to make progress.

According to the custom of blind dates, if this situation develops steadily until the end of the year, both parents should meet.

but···
Zhang Yang doesn't have a very noble consciousness, and he is just an ordinary person. If he was still the good-for-nothing wage earner, he would naturally be happy to have such a girl take such initiative, but now...

Call him bloated, or whatever, but with his current income of [-] yuan a day, and the unlimited possibilities in the future, is he really ready to develop step by step with a girl like this?

To be honest, he is not very willing.

But he didn't want to do anything like playing with people's emotions.

"Don't reply yet." Zhang Yang gave up replying and planned to deal with it coldly in the next two days. If that didn't work, he planned to make it clear.

That night, he really didn’t reply.

·
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang set off to check out the new apartment.

"Sir, our apartment is fully furnished and equipped with large-capacity refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves, ovens, and a full set of kitchenware and tableware. Public facilities include a gym, an independent outdoor garden, a private club, a video room, a lobby seating area, and an underground garage. There is 24-hour butler service…”

In this serviced apartment next to Zhongshan Park, the staff took Zhang Yang around the model room.

This apartment is a one-bedroom apartment of 93 square meters. The monthly rent is more than 2 yuan, and the minimum rent starts in six months.

As for quality, it goes without saying that all details are meticulously considered to the extreme. After all, the target group is not ordinary office workers.

Zhang Yang stood on the balcony and could overlook the lush Zhongshan Park not far away. He liked silence rather than movement. He always felt that since he lived, he had to look like he was living there. There was no need to choose an extremely prosperous commercial center.

The combination of movement and quiet here makes it very suitable for living.

"Then I've decided, let's sign the contract." Zhang Yang decided quickly.

It's not like buying a house. One day's cashback is enough to pay one month's rent, so there is nothing to consider.

"This way, please." The staff said with a smile.

That afternoon, Zhang Yang made a reservation for this service apartment next to Zhongshan Park and rented it for six months.

"How far can I grow in six months?" On the way back in the Cayenne, Zhang Yang looked at the towering skyscrapers outside the car window and couldn't help but look forward to it.

Maybe by that time, he would already have his own home in the Demon City, right?

In the afternoon at the old apartment, Zhang Yang packed up his things.

In fact, he didn't have many personal belongings during his years in Shanghai. After all, he only had to go to work in the past two years.

Off-brand refrigerators, Midea fans, old clothes...
He was used to saving things, so he didn't want to throw things away. He called the old things recycling phone number and packed the old clothes that he would never wear again and put them in the recycling bin downstairs.

Return to Kong Lala's apartment.

Zhang Yang suddenly felt as if he had never left any traces in the land of Magic City, as if he had never been here.

"Fortunately, I'm finally not the same person I used to be." Zhang Yang was overjoyed.

Opening the window, letting the cool evening air flow into the house, and looking forward to the days ahead, he suddenly felt that a new chapter in his life would truly begin from now on.

Looking at the time, Zhang Yang sent a message to Xiang Youde.

"Have you got off work?"

"Aching backs, a lot of tired people..." Xiang Youde complained endlessly. He took his annual leave early and now has no time off to take. "Come to my apartment for a meal and eat something good." Zhang Yang invited.

You can't throw away this refrigerator full of good things you bought from Sam. I just had a good meal with Xiang Youde in the evening, and he could take the rest with him.

Now that you've moved into a new apartment, it's time to start over.

"I'll be here soon. Do you want to have a drink?" Xiang Youde immediately became excited after hearing this.

"Wine?" Zhang Yang muttered to himself. His long-term self-control and self-discipline had long made him forget what wine was like, but what was the purpose of self-discipline?Going around in circles is of course to enjoy life better!

"Get a bottle!"

A little later, the apartment door was ajar.

In the empty dormitory, a square table was placed with an all-in-one shabu-shabu and grilled pot. On the side of the pot were cherries, snowflake beef, beef ribs, various vegetables, and a bottle of wine.

Xiang Youde ate one sweet and sour cherry, and then another, his cheeks bulging.

"It's so delicious to eat." He drooled happily. "By the way, Zhang Yang, are you ready?"

He thought Zhang Yang was going back home.

"No, we just moved." Zhang Yang put two steaks on the frying pan and took a sip of wine.

I haven't had it for a long time. This spicy food hits my head in one sip.

"Good guy, you scared me. I thought you were going to find another job." Xiang Youde breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to eat a piece of meat in the shabu-shabu, which made him scream like a monkey.

The two of them filled their glasses, ate and drank, and chatted about the world.

We talked about what it was like when we first arrived in Shanghai, our first day at work, our lives and our ideals, and we also looked forward to the future.

After a long time, both of them became a little tipsy.

"When do you plan to return to your hometown to develop?" Zhang Yang asked smoothly. He had heard from Xiang Youde that he would return to his hometown in two years.

"At least we have to wait..." Xiang Youde's eyes were confused, "You have to wait for the day I pay off the mortgage and find my wife, right? By the way, what about you?"

"Me?" Zhang Yang laughed. Can he say that he was ready to find a way to take root in the Magic City?
He hesitated for a moment, then laughed at Xiang Youde, thinking he could tell what Zhang Yang was thinking, "No...Zhang Yang, you have graduated a few years ago and been working for a few years, and you are still so naive? Do you think you can really do that?" Are you going to stay in the magical city?"

"Maybe? What if it works?" Zhang Yang said noncommittally.

"What if it's not just words? For working people like us who can see ten years from now at a glance, there won't be so many possibilities in the future unless we win the lottery..." Xiang Youde said while taking a big mouthful of meat.

Zhang Yang didn't say anything else. He looked at Xiang Youde who was devouring food as if he hadn't touched meat in a month. He stood up and took out everything in the refrigerator.

"Take all of this with you later."

"No, no, you're not going back to your hometown when you move to a new house. These are expensive to buy." Xiang Youde shook his head.

"No? Okay, if you don't want it, I'll share it with others." Zhang Yang muttered to himself, "I remember there seem to be a few girls sharing the apartment on this floor. I'll ask them later if they want it."

"Don't!" Xiang Youde raised his head. "What's the use of giving it to a girl? You've already moved away, how do you expect people to remember you? It's different if you give it to me. We are brothers in trouble, comrades in the trenches. You will definitely not lose money if you give it to me! I can even Call you righteous..."

Xiang Youde kept chattering.

Zhang Yang's blind date Xiong Yaqian suddenly sent a series of question marks.

"What do you mean? You never reply?"
