Xu Xiangyang had previously planned not to maintain contact with Feng Jiunian for too long, as it was not a very stable relationship.
But recently, he's been thinking a lot. Sometimes, if you don't do anything, you can only honestly make money.
A grown man like me, how could I be afraid to go out and make money?
Fortune favors the bold, let's do it!
However, he still needed to think about the specifics. Last time, he sold Feng Jiunian a lot of food, and he needed to study it this time.
Because of his arm injury, Xu Xiangyang can't drive back home, so he can only recuperate and take leave now.
He glanced at the sky outside; it was almost dark.
These days, Wang Xiumin and her husband have been staying here, bringing a lot of life to the house.
Now, suddenly he's all alone again, and he still doesn't quite feel used to it.
In fact, he is often alone, but now that he has the warmth of a home, he misses his family even more.
The next morning, Xu Xiangyang went out to buy breakfast, as he had grown to really enjoy the breakfast at the nearby state-run restaurant.
Their fried dough sticks and steamed buns are especially delicious, with generous fillings.
Actually, he could buy a lot and take it home, then fill the space with food. The space can also keep things fresh, so whatever he puts in will be exactly the same when he takes it out.
But Xu Xiangyang didn't do that; he just liked that feeling.
Okay, let's go out for breakfast and breathe in the morning air.
After finishing breakfast, Xu Xiangyang ran into Shen Fangjun on his way home.
The two met and stared at each other, both momentarily stunned.
"Comrade Xu, I heard you were injured. Is your arm feeling better?" Shen Fangjun asked, noticing the cast still on his arm.
It looks pretty serious, with such thick plasterboard...
Xu Xiangyang was quite puzzled. The two of them didn't work in the same company, so how did she know that he was injured?
Thinking this, he asked, "It's much better now. The cast will be removed in a couple of days. How did you know I was injured?"
Shen Fangjun smiled and said, "My mom works as an accountant at your company. She talked about your company a while ago, and that's what I heard. But you can't work so hard. You should take care of your safety."
Actually, she didn't want to say it. After all, if she encouraged Xu Xiangyang to give up state property, what would that make her look like?
But I feel bad if I don't say anything, after all, they helped me, and it's not too much to ask for some advice.
Xu Xiangyang understood her good intentions and nodded in agreement, "You're right, life is always the most important thing, I'll be more careful in the future."
The man in front of her had a gentle smile on his face, and with the morning sunlight shining on him, Shen Fangjun was momentarily stunned.
"Fangjun, what are you doing here instead of going to work?" a woman's voice rang out, her tone full of hostility.
The two looked over and saw that it was Liu Honglan, Shen Fangjun's mother, walking towards them, along with her sister Shen Yijun.
Upon seeing the two of them, Shen Fangjun's expression noticeably turned indifferent.
She was no longer willing to maintain the facade she used to, since who could accept scheming against their own mother?
"Who is this? Could it be Fangjun's boyfriend?" Shen Yijun suddenly asked.
Of course she remembered Xu Xiangyang's face, especially the time he mocked her, which made her feel bad for several days.
Upon hearing this, Liu Honglan's expression immediately changed, and she gave Xu Xiangyang a hostile look.
When she saw the arm in a cast, she took another closer look at Xu Xiangyang's face.
"Are you Xu Xiangyang?" she asked tentatively.
After all, he had already collected two months' salary from the accounting department, and he had recently become the talk of the office, so people would always remember him.
Xu Xiangyang nodded. "It's me, Accountant Liu, right?"
Liu Honglan nodded, her expression softening slightly, but her face still looked unwell.
She said, "Is Comrade Xu dating my daughter?"
That's what she asked, but her tone clearly indicated that she didn't agree.
Before Xu Xiangyang could say anything, Shen Fangjun spoke first.
"He's not my boyfriend, so why does it matter to me if I talk to someone else a little more? Does that mean whatever you say, sister, is law?"
It was obvious to everyone that she was suppressing her anger in her tone.
Liu Honglan immediately became unhappy, "I'm just asking a question, do you have to get so angry?"
I don't know what's wrong with this girl. She was fine a few years ago, but lately she gets angry as soon as she speaks.
Shen Fangjun was unaware of her thoughts. If she had known, she would have been even angrier. Didn't they see what they had done? How could anyone not be furious? Everyone wants to talk things out properly.
"I have a bad temper? You've never really thought about me properly. If you truly believed me, you wouldn't ask that question!"
She left Liu Honglan speechless, unable to say anything that seemed appropriate.
Shen Fangjun then sneered, turned her head to calm herself down, and said to Xu Xiangyang, "I'm sorry, Comrade Xu, I've caused you trouble. You can go now."
I greeted them when I saw them today, but I never expected that these two people in my family would be so unreasonable and argumentative.
Xu Xiangyang didn't show any emotion. This girl was really pitiful; she had to rely on herself to get into such a family.
If you get married and find a good family, things will be better. But if you encounter someone even more bizarre, then your life is over.
"It's okay, I'm leaving now." He waved his hand, then turned and went home.
His house was nearby; I walked five or six meters to his place, took out my key, opened the door, and went inside.
All three of them noticed Xu Xiangyang's actions. The houses here were all very nice, so they were all quite surprised.
Shen Yijun didn't expect that this person was handsome and from a well-off family. Although it was not bad for them to live in the company's dormitory building, how could it be comfortable for a family of seven to be crammed into a 50-square-meter room?
She still shares a bunk bed with Shen Fangjun, and it's incredibly stifling for her.
But those who live in small courtyards have plenty of space, and if the courtyard is big enough, they can easily turn it into a house.
Thinking of this, she felt even more satisfied with Xu Xiangyang, but he didn't even look at her and even mocked her!
Shen Yijun turned her head and looked Shen Fangjun up and down. She was not as good-looking as herself. How did she become friends with her?
That Xu Xiangyang is blind! He didn't even glance at this beautiful woman standing right in front of him!
"You'd better watch yourself and talk to men less when you're out. If others see you, they'll think our family has bad morals!" Liu Honglan retorted directly.
This is something a mother shouldn't say; it's so hurtful.
However, Liu Honglan clearly lacked that awareness; she only knew how to criticize others without realizing that her words might hurt people.
Shen Yijun nodded in agreement, "That's right, don't embarrass the family."
She rolled her eyes, looking down on the younger sister in front of her.
Shen Fangjun sneered and said, "Don't you talk to male colleagues at work? Don't you talk to male classmates at school?"
