Back at the rental house, Zhang Li was not asleep yet, sitting on the sofa in the living room with a look of sadness on her face. This girl with an extremely strong heart has endured too much bitterness and blows in the past month. After finally getting through the first month, I thought I would be in good hands, but who would have expected that I would fall into deeper despair in the blink of an eye.
"You're back."
Lu Shanmin hummed and sat on the sofa, "You're not asleep yet"
"Can't sleep."
p>"Go to bed quickly, you have to go to work tomorrow morning."
"Shanmin, thank you."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "I just did what I thought I should do."
Zhang Li lowered her head, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes, "I'm sorry."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "If you let me choose again, I will still choose this way."
Zhang Li raised her head and looked at Lu Shanmin's sincere face, "Is it worth it?"
"Grandpa often said that he doesn't care about gains and losses when doing things, only about right and wrong."
Zhang Li’s eyes were bloodshot. In her first month of work, as a new employee, she had to do all her duties, including serving tea and pouring water. She worked overtime almost every day, and in addition to this What Yue has experienced has always kept her nerves in a state of tension. Today, it was because Huang Mei owed a debt that was impossible to repay. The girl had been gritting her teeth to prevent herself from collapsing.
"Mountain people, we have caused you too much trouble since we met."
Looking at the tiredness on Zhang Li’s face, Lu Shanmin felt a little distressed, “Sister Li, now we should be in the same boat and share weal and woe. You must not be under too much pressure. If you collapse again, what will happen to everyone? "It will undoubtedly be a fatal blow."
Zhang Li smiled bitterly. She had known Lu Shanmin for more than a month, and Lu Shanmin's words and deeds were very different from the mountain villagers in her impression. This mountain boy who only went to elementary school has unknowingly become the core of the rental house. Every time I see him, I feel an inexplicable sense of security.
"Don't worry, mountain people, I won't be defeated that easily."
"Well, Huang Mei was quite frightened today. She still needs you to enlighten her."
Zhang Li nodded, was silent for a moment and said, "Mountain people, let me and Huang Mei find a way to get the 50,000 yuan. If it doesn't work, let the family ask relatives and friends to borrow it."
Lu Shanmin shook his head, "I remember you said, if you guys had good family conditions, why would you carry your bags and go to the East China Sea alone?"
"But we can't pay back the money at all. ".
"Your parents have finally managed to support you through college. Now they are waiting for you to flourish in the East China Sea. We cannot let them down."
Zhang Li lowered her head, her face full of fatigue. , "Yeah, but this can't trick you."
Lu Shanmin shook his head, "I said, if I choose again, I will still do it. Don't worry, there are still three months.I will find a way, but it is not yet the point of no return. ”
Zhang Li looked at Lu Shanmin in confusion. Although she had not looked down on him before, she always thought that he was just an uneducated mountain villager. She was only kind to him out of kindness and sympathy from the bottom of her heart. , this time, Zhang Li felt for the first time that the boy in front of her who was a few years younger than herself actually felt as tall and powerful as a father. For the first time, she realized that the three of them had been studying in college for so many years, except for a diploma or maybe Not as good as him.
Fifty thousand yuan, this astronomical figure has been lingering in Lu Shanmin's mind for the past two days. He has never owed a dime since he was a child. Who would have thought that he would owe it when he first arrived in Donghai? Such a huge sum of money. Based on my salary, it would take two years to save it without eating or drinking. It is impossible to pay it off in three months just by working at the barbecue restaurant.
See you. Lu Shanmin turned over the barbecue in his hands absently, and the meat was a little burnt. Lin Dahai slapped Lu Shanmin on the head as usual.
"You brat, I'm thinking about spring, I've been absent-minded all night."
Lu Shanmin smiled awkwardly, "Uncle Hai, what do you think you can do to earn 50,000 yuan in three months?"
Lin Dahai was stunned for a moment. After more than a month of contact, he got to know Lu Shanmin better and knew that he was not a person who loved money as much as his life.
"Why is he short of money?"
Lu Shanmin nodded.
Lin Dahai frowned and kicked Lu Shanmin on the butt, "You have been in the city for a month now. You are good at not learning, but you are obsessed with money. You have learned a lot, fifty thousand, You thought it was five hundred."
Lu Shanmin touched his head in embarrassment, "I was just asking casually."
Lin Dahai patted Lu Shanmin on the head and said, "Asking casually, There is either no way, or I don’t know if you dare or not."
When Lu Shanmin heard this, he immediately became energetic and looked at Lin Dahai with longing eyes.
"What way?"
"Rob the bank."
When Lu Shanmin heard this, he immediately lowered his head.
Lin Da also said seriously, "You brat, you are so ambitious. I have seen a lot of people, and I tell you, walk steadily and step by step, and don’t dream about spring and autumn all day long."
A bar girl who happened to pass by heard the conversation between the two. , said to Lu Shanmin with a smile, "Handsome guy, I think you are in good shape. Do you want my sister to introduce you to a rich woman? As long as the job is good, not to mention fifty thousand, five hundred thousand is fine."
Lu Shanmin knows this girl, and has been coming here for barbecue for more than a month. These bar girls often like to tease him. At first, Lu Shanmin would be teased to the point of blushing, but then he gradually realized that they also liked her. Just kidding, the embarrassment gradually disappeared.
Lu Shanmin looked up and found an acquaintance next to the girl. It was Liu Qiang who tried to get her drunk in the store that night. Lu Shanmin explains itThe girl around.
The girl was still wearing a student uniform, which was completely different from the other bar girls. She was looking at herself blankly at this moment.
The girl smiled faintly at Lu Shanmin, "I've always wanted to thank you. I've been busy with the midterm exam in the past few days. Thank you for helping me out that night."
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "It's a little effort."
"My name is Ruan Yu, a sophomore in finance college, working part-time at Rose Bar."
"My name is Lu Shanmin."
Ruan Yu smiled sweetly, "I know, the handsome barbecue guy on Minsheng West Road, you are a celebrity now."
Lu Shanmin smiled sheepishly, "Liu Qiang didn't make things difficult for you anymore, right?"
Ruan Yu shook his head, "He thought I was like other girls before, but now he knows that I In my mind, as long as I deliberately avoid him, he will not blatantly attack me. After all, I am a student of a finance college. If something really happens, he will not suffer the consequences."
As he said that, he pointed to the person next to him who was holding a plate and choosing dishes. "She is Sister Xiaoxiao. She is a very nice person. I was just joking with you." 1
Lu Shanmin nodded, "I know."
Ruan Yu paused and said a little embarrassedly, "I just heard that you are short of money. I have saved some during this period. If you need it urgently, I can lend it to you first."
Ruan Yu suddenly offered to lend money, which caught Lu Shanmin by surprise. The two met by chance and only found out the other person’s name today. Although he had helped her before, he never expected that the other party would offer to lend money to her. Own.
How much money can a student make by working part-time in a bar?
If Zeng Yaqian said such a thing, Lu Shanmin would think it was an insult. When Ruan Yu said These words made Lu Shanmin feel a little moved in his heart. In the past month in Donghai, I have seen a lot of human kindness. I didn't expect that when I was most embarrassed, the person who offered to help me was actually a little girl who was already in embarrassment.
Lu Shanmin smiled and said, "Thank you."
A clear smile appeared on Ruan Yu's face, which reminded Lu Shanmin of Bai Ling again. The smile on Bai Ling's face was also so clear.
"Didn't you say I was your sister when you helped me out last time? Isn't it natural for a sister to help her brother?"
Lu Shanmin smiled, "I appreciate your kindness. , you should keep your money and go to school well."
The bar girl named Xiaoxiao chose the dishes and came over.
"Hey, brother and sister are so affectionate, Xiaoyu, when did you hook up with the handsome barbecue guy?"
Ruan Yu's cheeks turned red, and she pinched Xiaoxiao angrily, "Sister Xiaoxiao, you are talking nonsense." After saying that, he ran away embarrassedly.
Ruan Yu sipped beer while eating barbecue. As a wine sitter, a poor drinker is a fatal shortcoming. Experienced Liu Qiang last timeRuan Yu, who was simple and inexperienced in the world, gradually began to learn how to live in a bar where dragons and snakes are mixed.
"Xiaoyu, I just heard that you wanted to lend money to that boy. Are you serious?"
Ruan Yu nodded sheepishly, "But he refused." .
Xiaoxiao knocked Ruan Yu on the head and said, "Silly girl, this is called playing hard to get. You have been in the bar for a while, and you haven't seen clearly what a man is."
Ruan Yu pouted, "He is different."
Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said, "Men can be different. They are not all animals that think in their lower body."
"But he saved me last time."
"That's because he just came from the country, and he is still a stupid boy. He has never seen any man before. No matter how honest and white he is at the beginning, he will become... A ruthless and heartless playboy."
Ruan Yu's face turned red, "Sister Xiaoxiao, you misunderstood. I just thanked him for rescuing me last time. I didn't mean that. What he will become is none of my business."
< p>Xiao Xiao imitated Ruan Yu's tone, "Look at the coy look on your face. It's none of my business. Your face is as red as an apple.""Sister Xiaoxiao",,,,
"Don't blame me for reality, let me tell you, a little girl like you is easily confused by some hero saving the beauty, wait until you arrive At my age, you will understand that nothing in this world is reliable except money."

Who would have thought that they would owe such a huge sum when they first arrived in Donghai? A huge amount of money. Based on my salary, it would take two years to save enough without eating or drinking, and I couldn't pay it off in three months just by working at a barbecue restaurant.
Seeing Lu Shanmin turning over the barbecue in his hands absentmindedly, the meat was a little burnt. Lin Dahai slapped Lu Shanmin on the head out of habit.
"You brat, I miss you so much. I have been absent-minded all night."
Lu Shanmin smiled awkwardly, "Uncle Hai, what do you think you can do to earn 50,000 yuan in three months?"
Lin Dahai was stunned for a moment. After more than a month of contact, he still got to know Lu Shanmin relatively well and knew that he was not a person who loved money as much as his life.
"Why are you short of money?"
Lu Shanmin nodded.
LinDahai frowned and kicked Lu Shanmin on the butt, "You have been in the city for a month now. You are good at not learning, but you are obsessed with money and you have learned a lot. It's fifty thousand. You thought it was five hundred." ".

Lin Dahai patted Lu Shanmin on the head and said, "Ask me casually, there is no way, but I don't know if you dare."
When Lu Shanmin heard this, he immediately became energetic and a pair of His eyes looked at Lin Dahai longingly.
"What method".
"Robbery of banks."
When Lu Shanmin heard this, he immediately lowered his head.
Lin Dahuan said earnestly, "You brat, I've seen too many young people who are so ambitious. Let me tell you, walk steadily step by step, and don't have big dreams all day long." .
A bar girl who happened to be passing by heard the conversation between the two and said to Lu Shanmin with a smile, "Handsome guy, I think you have a good figure. Do you want my sister to introduce you to a rich woman? As long as you live Okay, don’t say fifty thousand, half a million is fine.”
Lu Shanmin knows this girl and has been coming here for barbecue for more than a month. These bar girls often like to tease him. At first, Lu Shanmin would be teased so hard that he would blush. Later, he gradually realized that they just liked to joke around, and gradually he no longer looked as embarrassed as before.
Lu Shanmin looked up and found that there was an acquaintance beside the girl. It was the girl who Lu Shanmin rescued Liu Qiang from when he tried to get her drunk in the store that night.
The girl was still wearing a student uniform, which was completely different from the other bar girls. She was looking at herself blankly at this moment.
The girl smiled faintly at Lu Shanmin, "I've always wanted to thank you. I've been busy with the midterm exam in the past few days. Thank you for helping me out that night."

After experiencing Liu Qiang's forced drinking last time, coupled with Xiaoxiao's intentional and unintentional preaching and teaching, Ruan Yu, who is simple and inexperienced in worldly affairs, gradually began to learn how to settle down in a bar where dragons and snakes are mixed.

Ruan Yu nodded sheepishly, "But he refused." .
