"It's like paying some deposit first. There is 20 in the card, and the password is pasted on the back of the card."

"It's natural." Ling Yun took the bank card and said with a smile.

After chatting for a while and exchanging phone numbers, Xia Lan left the box.Ling Yun came to the Ministry of Manpower of Elizabeth Palace, and there was a middle-aged woman sitting in the Ministry of Manpower.

"Hello, although I am very sorry, I will go through the resignation procedures first."

"Resign? If you resign, you must notify 30 days in advance, otherwise your salary will be deducted."

Touching the bank card in his pocket with his left hand, Ling Yun said, "It's okay, please do it as soon as possible."

After returning to the staff office and sitting for a while, the female foreman walked in.As soon as they met, he opened his mouth and said, "Lingyun, I heard from the manpower side, did you go through the resignation procedures?"

"Um... how should I put it, I found a new job, so I have to leave." Ling Yun explained.

"Why do you suddenly think of resigning? How good is your current job? I think your monthly salary and commission are a lot now, right?"

The foreman looked at Ling Yun suspiciously and thought about the customer who ordered Ling Yun just now.She looked out the door, and after confirming that there was no one around, she asked in a low voice, "You kid, won't you really be with a little rich woman?"

"Hmm..." Ling Yun was a little embarrassed while sitting in the seat, "For the time being... you can also think so. So the other party asked me to resign immediately, so you can understand."

"Tsk, it's so possessive," the female foreman smiled. She walked in front of Ling Yun, patted Ling Yun's shoulder, and said earnestly, "You, don't be deceived. Those rich girls have always been It sounds nice on the lips."

"Well, I will pay attention, thank the foreman for reminding me. I have really troubled you for the past few months." Ling Yun stood up from his seat and bowed slightly to the foreman.

"Oh, what are you doing so solemnly, I'm embarrassed." The female foreman was a little embarrassed.

"Speaking of which, if I was really deceived, I might come back when I can't get along outside. If the foreman is still here, I'd like to ask you to take care of me." Ling Yun's face With a mischievous smile.

"Oh, whatever you want, you have to take care of yourself." The female foreman sighed helplessly.

"Well, I know, thanks foreman."

After the last night of work, Ling Yun left the Elizabeth Palace.After walking out of the gate, Ling Yun looked back at the magnificent decoration of the Elizabeth Palace, the glazed lamps hanging on the ceiling of the lobby.And the luxury cars parked in the parking space at the entrance.

"Finally leave this place." Ling Yun let out a sigh of relief and muttered to himself.

Although during this time, part-time work at the Elizabeth Palace allowed him to earn a lot of wages to make ends meet.But Ling Yun never wanted to step into this rotten and gray area.

Speaking of which, is this considered good, or is it going ashore?

After returning home, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening. After washing up, Ling Yun lay on the bed.At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was actually Xia Lan's call.

"Classmate Xialan, haven't you slept so late? Girls stay up late, it's not good for your skin."

"I should have told you this. Boys, you should pay more attention to skin care." Perhaps Ling Yun didn't expect that as soon as Ling Yun opened his mouth, he would suddenly say such a remark, and Xia Lan was amused.

"So, Xia Lan called late at night, what advice do you have?"

"I forgot to ask your home address before. What time do you leave school tomorrow and I'll drive to pick you up."

Ling Yun didn't want to reveal his home address to Xia Lan. He said, "My home is not in Minghai City. How about it? At 06:30 tomorrow afternoon, you drive to the Central Park Subway Station in Minghai City, and I will be there by then. wait for you, can you?"

"Central Park Station...I see, see you at 06:30 tomorrow afternoon."

"Speaking of which, I'm going to see your mother tomorrow. What should I wear? Is it not appropriate to wear a school uniform directly?"

"Actually, it's okay to wear a school uniform. It's up to you, as long as you dress appropriately." Xia Lan replied.

"Understood, then I'll see you tomorrow afternoon, call and see you then."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Yun lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling of the bedroom.I don't know why, but when he thinks of tomorrow's events, his heart is a little nervous and uneasy.

Chapter 34 Xia's Mansion

After school the next day, Lingyun took the cross-city subway to Central Park Station.

After thinking about it, he was still not wearing a school uniform, but changed into a simple casual outfit.

After leaving the subway station, Ling Yun came to the bus stop near the subway station, found a bench, and sat down.Looking at the time, it was 06 minutes before 30:15, so he simply started to stay.

Lingyun actually didn't quite understand the meaning of the security check at the subway station.The security check at the subway station has always only asked passengers to throw their bags on the conveyor belt of the scanner to see if they are carrying contraband, even if they pass the customs.

Only check carry-on bags?Then I hide things in my waist, can't I do it?

Passengers on the subway probably never thought about it.Every night at six o'clock, the young boy who was standing in the corner of the carriage, wearing headphones and looking harmless, actually carried a pistol with him.

Not far from Central Park Station, stands the towering and dense CBD building complex.Under the sunlight, the glass windows of the skyscrapers swayed people to the point of being unable to open their eyes.In this forest of reinforced concrete, there are office workers in formal suits.

The continuous flow of traffic, the hurrying and indifferent pedestrians, and the star-like neon lights that gradually light up in the twilight.Minghai City is such a metropolis full of wealth, busyness, desire and anxiety.

Lingyun's cell phone rang, he took it out of his pocket and found that Xia Lan called her.

"Where are you now? Are you near the subway station?" Xia Lan asked on the phone.

"I'm sitting near the bus stop not far from the subway station." Ling Yun replied.

"Understood, wait a moment."

One minute later, Ling Yun saw a black sports car with a unique shape and a sense of technology, parked in front of him.The logo of the sports car is an artistic capital letter B.

"This is a sports car from the Bugatti series... right?" Ling Yun vaguely remembered that he had seen it in a luxury encyclopedia when he was bored in a previous life.

Wait, this thing is worth at least 400 million dollars, right?Good guy, Xia Lan is really rich.

Xia Lan rolled down the car window, looked at Ling Yun who was still sitting on the bus stop bench, and said, "Get on the bus quickly."

Ling Yun glanced at Xialan who was sitting in the back seat of the car, then stood up from the bench, trotted to the door to open the door, got into the back seat, and sat beside Xialan.After Ling Yun got into the car, the driver in the driver's seat stepped on the accelerator, and the Bugatti's engine ran smoothly and silently, and then galloped on the highway.

The scenery outside the window moved rapidly backwards.The two sat together with a distance of two fingers, without saying a word, and the car fell into a strange silence.

Ling Yun looked at the scenery outside the window, he was a little lost in thought.After 10 minutes, he turned his head and asked Xia Lan who was beside him, "How long will it take for us to reach your house?"

Asked by Ling Yun, Xia Lan, who was wondering what she was thinking, raised her head. She thought for a while and said, "There are about 10 minutes left."

"So fast?" Ling Yun looked at Xia Lan in surprise, "Your home is in the city center?"

"Yeah, is there any problem?" Feeling that Ling Yun's expression was a little strange, Xia Lan glanced at Ling Yun.

"It's nothing, I just feel a little too fast. I haven't figured out what to say when I see your mother." Ling Yun replied.

"Well, say something polite, introduce yourself, and then... it depends on the situation and adapt accordingly." Xia Lan looked at Ling Yun and smiled, "Don't be nervous, my mother is a good talker."

Arriving at the wealthy area in the city center, and driving to the gate of a community, Lingyun saw a towering iron gate, blocking the sports car.The driver in the driver's seat handed the access card to the security booth next to the wooden door, and soon, the iron gate slowly opened in the left and right directions.

After entering the community, the sports car drove straight into the underground parking lot of the community.After arriving at the garage, the driver in the driver's seat pressed the remote control, and the rolling shutter door of the garage rose.After stopping the sports car, Xia Lan motioned for Ling Yun to get out of the car with her.Ling Yun followed Xia Lan and walked into the stairwell in the garage.

Going up the stairs, there is a door at the end of the stairs.Xia Lan stretched out the thumb of her right hand and pressed it on the fingerprint reader near the door lock.With the sound of "di", the door was unlocked, Xia Lan pushed it open, and walked towards the door with her feet raised. Ling Yun followed closely and walked into Xia Lan's house.

Going around the hollow carved wooden screen, Lingyun stepped into the wide main hall.The mansion of the Xia family looks quite large, and the decorations in the mansion are antique Chinese style.

On the seat in the hall, a middle-aged woman sat.When the woman saw Xialan, she stood up and said respectfully, "Miss San, the master is waiting for you in the backyard."

"I see, Aunt Zhong." Xia Lan replied indifferently, then turned around and reached out to hold Ling Yun's hand. Ling Yun didn't react for a while, and looked at Xia Lan blankly.

Xia Lan glanced at the middle-aged woman standing beside her, gave Ling Yun a secret look, and said, "Let's go, let's go to the backyard to meet my mother."

Xia Lan held Ling Yun's hand, and the two walked side by side. They left the hall of the house and came to the backyard - rather than a backyard or courtyard, Ling Yun would rather call it a small garden.

As soon as he arrived in the backyard, Ling Yun saw a long corridor.The promenade is decorated with white walls and blue tiles, and the style is simple and simple. Ling Yun and Xia Lan walked slowly along the promenade.Both sides of the promenade are planted with East Asian golden bamboo and brightly colored oleanders.In the golden bamboo forest, Ling Yun even saw a small pond made of pebbles.In the small pond, water lilies rippled gently in the water with the wind.

If you want to ask Lingyun, is this courtyard beautiful?Is it elegant enough?Ling Yun can only say that it is not bad.

But as in Lingyun's previous life, a famous philosopher once said: "The poor who are worried are indifferent to the most beautiful scenery. The merchants who sell minerals can only see the commercial value of minerals, but not the most beautiful scenery. The beauty and character of minerals."

Looking at this elegantly decorated, large-scale, Jiangnan garden-style courtyard, Ling Yun had a doubt in his heart.

"I have a small question," Ling Yun turned to Xia Lan and asked, "What is the average house price in the area where we are now?"

Xia Lan didn't expect Ling Yun to ask such a question. She thought about it and said, "I forgot a little bit. Well, the current market price is probably close to... like [-]? It's more than [-] and one flat, what's the matter? ?"

"Lying...cough, it's alright, just ask." Ling Yun closed his mouth.

Leaving the corridor, came to a hall with stained windows.At the entrance of the hall, stood a sturdy square-faced man who was almost middle-aged.When the man saw Xia Lan, he stepped forward and bowed slightly, and said, "Miss San hasn't been home for a while. Your mother misses you very much."

"Well, so I came to see her today," Xia Lan said, with no expression on her face. "How is her body recently?"

"It's not very good. In the past few days, I often can't sleep, and my body is always sweating," the man replied. "I advised her to go to the hospital for chemotherapy. She didn't want to go, so she wanted to stay at home."

"I see, I will persuade her." Xia Lan's eyes became slightly dim.

"This is, you mentioned yesterday, your boyfriend?" the man asked.

"Yes, Uncle Fang, what do you think?" Xia Lan pointed at Ling Yun beside him.

"It's good, he looks like a well-behaved child with knowledge and reason, your mother should like it," Fang Uncle looked at Ling Yun carefully, showing a gentle smile, "I don't know if this counts as a blessing... but your mother You should feel a lot happier.”

"Well, that's good," Xia Lan gently took Ling Yun's hand, "Let's go in."

Xialan's hands are really soft, and the skin on her palms and fingers is very smooth.Along the way, Xia Lan kept holding hands, Ling Yun felt a little embarrassed.

Walking into the corner of the hall, Ling Yun saw Xia Lan's mother, a slender middle-aged woman.Xia Lan's mother was sitting on a large bamboo chair, with a thin silk blanket covering her body, and she was basking in the sun with her eyes closed.

Incompatible with this leisurely atmosphere, there is a ventilator next to her bamboo chair.This undoubtedly reminds the visitor that the middle-aged woman in front of her is a patient.

Hearing the footsteps beside her, she opened her eyes—those were charming peach eyes that could not lose their charm even though they were old.

After seeing Xia Lan, her face showed joy. She was about to stand up from the bamboo chair when Xia Lan stepped forward and held her body down.

"Just don't get up, lie down and rest for a while."

Xia Lan helped her tidy up the silk blanket covering her, then walked to the corner of the hall, pulled two chairs, and motioned Ling Yun to sit down with her eyes.

"Mom, this is my boyfriend, Lingyun. I'll bring it back to show you." Xia Lan introduced to her mother.

"Is it Ling Yun... Well, that's a good name, then I'll call you Xiao Ling." Xia Lan's mother looked at Ling Yun with a warm smile.

Since the two sat down, Ling Yun noticed that Xia Lan's mother was watching him.Although the woman in front of her was nearly fifty years old, her skin was still very well maintained, and her face was as smooth as jade, with no visible wrinkles.And the pair of peach blossom eyes are full of amorous feelings.

"Sorry, I'm sick. If you don't treat your guests well, please take care." Mother Xia looked at Ling Yun and said softly.

"Where's Auntie," Ling Yun said with a humble look, "I didn't know that Auntie was in her arms before, so I disturbed your recuperation. I have to apologize to you."

Xia Lan looked at Ling Yun who was sitting beside her, and didn't say anything.

"It's boring to always recuperate in this backyard," Mother Xia said to Ling Yun with a smile, "If you young people come to talk with me, I can also relieve my boredom."

Mother Xia turned her head to look at Xia Lan and said, "Third, you haven't been home for a while. What, are there a lot of things going on in your studies and the company recently?"

"It's a bit too much. I'm finally free these days, so I'll take time to come back and have a look." Xia Lan replied.

"Let's stay for dinner then," said Mother Xia. She looked at Ling Yun and said, "Then, Xiao Ling, are you in a hurry to go back tonight? If there is no arrangement, just stay for a light meal."

Ling Yun carefully glanced at Xia Lan next to her, and seeing that Xia Lan didn't respond, he hurriedly replied, "As you please, I will naturally follow my aunt's arrangement."
