Beep beep.
At this time, Aunt Luo's phone also rang. She answered it and laughed, "It's okay, don't be polite, it's just a small matter. It's not in the Magic City, I'm in the Imperial City. Okay, wait until you get your salary, then treat me to a meal. Hehe, okay, I have guests now, so I won't talk for now."
After hanging up the phone, Luo Yin had a smile on his face. Su Ran asked curiously, "What are you so happy about?"
"I met a young girl yesterday. We got along well. Her life story was quite pitiful. She didn't want to look for a job without telling her boyfriend. I found her a job and she called to thank me."
"You're looking for a job without telling your boyfriend. Does that mean he doesn't support you?"
"Not really, it's just... her boyfriend loves her very much and is very rich, and she's an orphan..."
"Wait, another orphan?"
"Yes, there are so many orphans in this world. Her boyfriend buys her food and clothes. She doesn't want to be like this. Her boyfriend is even mean to her. She needs to rely on herself to avoid becoming a kept girl with no say in front of her boyfriend. So she's looking for a job."
"Her boyfriend is such a jerk! His girlfriend is an orphan, and she's already fragile, yet he's still mean to her. He thinks buying her material things is good for her. How can that work? He needs to be sincere."
"Oh, now that I hear you say that, you're very nice to your girlfriend?"
"Of course!" Su Ran sipped his wine, realizing that Xie Yinren was also an orphan. He said, "My girlfriend is also an orphan. Although I have provided her with material support, I have never been mean to her. I am very tolerant and love her. I have never made her cry, not even once!"
"Then you are a good man."
"certainly."
At the same time, in the Magic City.
Xie Yinren, who had just graduated from a dance training school, stared at her own youthful and beautiful self in a shop window and cheered herself up. "Come on, Yinren! You can do it. You have to work hard to make money and support yourself. You can't give Su Ran a chance to support you. He's already showing his vicious side. He's about to make you cry if your hair gets in his way while he plays games. If you don't work hard, you'll really be at his beck and call in the future!"
It was noon, and Xie Yinren walked into a Guizhou rice noodle shop and ordered a medium bowl of rice noodles. Alas, the rice noodles were not authentic, not Guizhou enough, and not tasty. One bowl was too many, and the little girl was a little homesick.
…
In the capital, Uncle Qin called to say he had found his pocket watch, right in his pocket. He then called Su Ran, laughing and saying he was forgetful. Su Ran consoled him with a few words before hanging up. Alas, the old man's condition was getting worse year by year. It had only been a year, and his condition had worsened considerably. He kept forgetting things.
Aunt Luo: "Found it?"
Su Ran: "Yes, I found it. It was in his pocket. I forgot about it for a moment and I was so panicked."
Aunt Luo: "I didn't expect that he still loved his deceased wife. There are not many men like him in this world. Many of them would bring a new girlfriend home the next day after their wife died. Tsk, they are all the same."
Upon hearing this, Su Ran retorted, "Aren't there many women who remarry the next day after their husbands die? Their children aren't their husbands'. There's even one man who doesn't have three children of his own. Isn't that tragic? So, don't always blame men. They're all the same. There are all kinds of people in the world. You can't generalize and always blame men."
"What about you? Are you that kind of person?"
"As for me, I'm one of those people who's in love like Mr. Qin. There are very few people like that nowadays."
Aunt Luo: "Hehehe, don't you care about your dignity, Mr. Su?"
Su Ran smiled and said, "That's the truth. I love my girlfriend very much. This is not a joke. What about you, Aunt Luo? Are you that kind of person?"
"Me?" Aunt Luo sipped her wine and said, "After my husband died, I didn't look for another husband. I lived alone for decades. I had a son, but unfortunately he died too. Haha, it's fate."
"Okay, okay, stop talking about those unhappy things. We are not here to compete with each other for misery. Let's drink."
The two of them drank half a bottle of Feitian for lunch, which was not much, but they felt a little dizzy. Su Ran had booked a room at the Shangri-La Hotel when she came to the capital in advance, so Aunt Luo sent Su Ran to the gate of the courtyard. "I'll let Awei take you back to the hotel to rest. When there is an event in the evening, you can just go downstairs to the banquet hall." Aunt Luo patted Su Ran's shoulder and said with a smile. She hadn't had such a happy and carefree chat for a long time.
"No need to drive me there. Shangri-La is not far away anyway. I can just walk there."
"Okay, then slow down and go ahead. I ran into someone I know."
As they were talking, a neighbor, a young woman in a cheongsam, got out of an Audi A8L, accompanied by a young man. Aunt Luo walked over and greeted them with a smile, "Hui Ru, this is Meng Jie's boyfriend, right? Haha, you really went to the zoo to inspect the communication lines and brought him back?"
"Xiao Lin, hurry up and call Aunt Luo."
This little Lin is also very sweet-mouthed, calling her "Sister Hua" and "Auntie Luo".
The three of them started chatting at the door of a courtyard house. Su Ran smiled at the young man and turned to walk out of the alley.
Slightly tipsy from the wine, I strolled through Shangri-La, taking in the imperial capital's prosperity and taking in plenty of photos of old Beijing. I didn't try any of the food, which didn't seem to be much, just authentic local dishes. It wasn't long before we arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel. Su Ran had booked a presidential suite. She had plenty of money, and she liked it, so it was okay, right? However, the room I'd originally chosen, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Forbidden City, was late. It was booked by a young man named Wang, so we had to stay in another one.
