It's really stupid.

Later, in his occasional free time, he would send her some irrelevant messages and ask her meaningless questions like what she was doing.

Ding Ning also answered honestly.

And then nothing happened.

He couldn't even remember that he had ever sent messages to Ding Ning. After all, he had too many messages, both work and personal. Even if he took the initiative to ask Ding Ning and Ding Ning replied, he might not reply a second time.

There’s no other reason, there are just too many messages and I can’t reply to them all.

Ding Ning is an insignificant person to him. There are many more important people waiting for him to respond. What is Ding Ning?

When the conversation resumed, it was Ding Ning who took the initiative.

The sudden initiative made Duan Feng very confused.

According to the impression Ding Ning had given him in the past, she was not an active person.

But she pulled him aside to chat about everything, and it was obvious that she was just making small talk, just like a girl who had never been in a relationship and took the initiative to talk to the boy she liked.

Who wouldn’t enjoy free flirtation?

Duan Feng treated Ding Ning as a chat friend. She brought up topics and he responded.

She chattered incessantly, and he would give her some satisfactory reactions and answers from time to time, which was sure to make her feel aroused.

He knew too well these women whose heads were full of fantasies and love.

This kind of person is easier to deal with than someone like Xu Qingli, who only does things but doesn't love.

When they were chatting, Ding Ning mainly talked about herself and her family. It can be seen that her family is quite happy.

Later, as Ding Ning was chatting, she changed the subject and talked about how she had an older brother when she was a child.

Next, she gradually asked about his life experience and how, after coming to Dongjiang, she went to the director of the welfare home to inquire about her lost brother.

What she said matched exactly what he experienced.

His heart suddenly sank at that moment.

The feeling of suddenly regaining what he had lost did not bring him joy and emotion, but disgust and aversion.

Of course he knew how he lost it.

He still remembers how cute the New Year picture dolls displayed at the entrance of the store looked when they smiled.

He could still feel the feeling of being overweight when he was picked up by the waist.

The man inside the store was smoking and chatting and laughing with the store owner.

This loss resulted in more than twenty years of hard and bitter life.

After many twists and turns, he finally became an orphan.

Although he was.

Life is so ironic. Perhaps it is fate. He should not resist and should not blame anyone.

What else can I do if this is my fate?

He can only rely on himself.

Fortunately, he was not to the point of starvation. Although he had gone hungry, he could still barely survive.

However, this alone is not enough. He needs to grow up, turn things around, and develop abilities.

Similarly, he needs to read people's faces, keep his head down, and swallow his anger.

With enough scheming and hard work, he was lucky enough to meet the director of the welfare home.

The welfare home has a requirement that children will be sent to work in society when they reach the age of fourteen.

He had always been a good student, so he took the initiative to approach the dean to discuss borrowing money to go to school.

He promised that he would work part-time during his college years to pay him back the money and the interest as well.

At that time, he was less than fourteen years old.

The dean was surprised that he was so mature and thoughtful at such a young age, so he promised him that as long as he studied hard, he would find a way to support him until graduation.

In order to solve his financial problems, he worked hard and went through high school, the college entrance examination, and then went to university.

At that time, his score was enough for him to apply to Fudan University in Shanghai, but Dongda University had preferential policies for local poor students, which could exempt them from tuition and miscellaneous fees during their studies. If their grades were good, they could also be arranged for special sponsored scholarships.

At that time, he chose Tokyo University without hesitation.

He studied for eight years and after graduation chose orthopedics, one of the most profitable departments.

The welfare benefits of the First Hospital of Dongda University were good, and he paid off all the debts he owed in the first year of work, although of course it wasn't much.

When I was in school, most of the expenses were covered by various welfare funds, preferential policies, scholarships, etc. There was no rush to repay the student loans, and there was no interest.

All of the above-mentioned financial support was his entire source of income during his school years.

On graduation day, he received his doctoral degree and diploma.

Looking back, he felt that his decision to disregard shame, put aside his so-called self-esteem, and shamelessly borrow money from the director of the welfare home was extremely correct.

Compared with a bright future, shame and self-esteem are not worth mentioning.

For the past twenty years, he has suppressed himself, restrained himself, and crushed himself. Now... he wants to make up for it all.

A decent job, a good salary, and a fairly good-looking appearance have all become the weight for his survival in the world.

They are like the hormones emitted by males during estrus in the animal world. Females with keen sense of smell smell the scent and rush to stick to him.

The occasional explicit jokes, provocative and ambiguous words all reveal his greedy desires.

He doesn't even have to make any extra movements or say anything flirtatious, and someone will take the initiative to unbutton a few buttons on their shirt, pretending nothing happened, and inadvertently reveal their cleavage.

As a rising star with the strongest hands-on and clinical skills, more women are willing to regard him as a potential stock.

On the one hand, they say that they are not greedy for men's money and as long as they are honest, but on the other hand, they are looking for so-called potential stocks. The "honesty" they mentioned would have been dug out from the grooves of their cerebral cortex when they met potential stocks.

Because he could see through these women's minds so well, Duan Feng simply accepted them all.

If you want to do it, you can.

Want to talk about love? No way.

Unfortunately, women are greedy.

After taking your money and accepting your things, they turn around and become more demanding, wanting to talk about love and marriage with you.

Both the right and the wrong.

That's ridiculous.

If he was penniless and had no decent job, how many people would be willing to get close to him?

Duan Feng always felt that there were no exceptions.

But exceptions happened.

It’s Ding Ning.

At first she made no impression on him.

Later, she started chatting with him in a long-winded manner. She was no different from those women who had other intentions towards him. They all liked to make small talk.

Later, she said he was the brother her family had been looking for.

The greetings, instructions and consolations she sent from time to time were like the warm sun in winter, so soothing and comfortable.

He knew that she was not greedy for his money or whether he had potential. She had no other demands on him. All the concern she expressed was the most sincere emotion, without a trace of impurities.

She was going to his mailing address and said she wanted to send him something.

He smiled.

In the past, many women gave him gifts, both expensive and cheap. Those were just the gifts of those women who thought they were smart and were just making investments out of their own cleverness.

When he receives a gift, he always gives the most satisfying smile, and then says a few words of praise that make people feel sincere to express his appreciation for the gift.

Women often become excited because of his reaction.
