my naughty female president
Chapter 38: The New Residence
The warehouse was empty, with only one corner for the drinks needed for the bar, and an empty bed on the other side, covered with plastic film, and nothing else.
"Then, you see, there is nothing here, no heating in winter and no air conditioning in summer, you really decided to live here?" Xiang Dong asked me again.
I nodded and said, "That's it, it's so spacious here!" As I said, I put down my backpack and picked up the broom beside me to start cleaning while shaking my head and curling my lips.
Xiang Dong saw that I had made up my mind and finally stopped saying anything and picked up the tools and started working with me.
We worked until noon, and the dusty warehouse was cleaned by the two of us, and it looked a little habitable.
Especially the terrazzo floor, although it is covered with dust, becomes bright and shiny immediately after being washed with water. Standing on it gives people a cool feeling, which makes me very happy.
At noon, I invited Xiang Dong to have a simple meal. After the meal, he gave me the keys to the warehouse and the car.
"I'm going to buy some goods in the afternoon. You can drive yourself to buy some needed items. I won't accompany you. Call me if you need anything!"
I just wanted to open my mouth to say thank you, but was stopped by Xiang Dong with a gesture: "If you want to say thank you to me, don't do it. It's my misfortune to know you. Goodbye." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.
Looking at Xiang Dong's back, I felt an inexplicable feeling in my heart. It is a great blessing to have such a friend in my life, so I said silently in my heart: Thank you, brother.
In the afternoon, I drove east to the department store to buy a set of bedding and some trivial daily necessities, and went to the flea market to buy some cheap furniture.
When I came back, I put the bedding and the old furniture I bought, and the huge warehouse suddenly had a sense of home, and the warehouse didn't look so empty anymore.
Although this sent me more than 1000 yuan, which is almost half of my remaining net worth, I still feel that it is worth the money.In this way, the "home" that I am about to live in has been settled from now on, at least for a short time, I don't have to live on the streets.
As for the fact that Mu Xichun has been withholding my salary so that I lost this only source of income, I am not too worried. I think there will always be a way, at least work harder and find a part-time job, and the living will not starve to death.
I looked at the time and it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and I felt hungry after doing physical work for most of the day.
Just when I was about to lock the door and go out to find something to eat, the phone rang. I took out the phone and saw that it was Annie who hadn’t seen me for a while. As soon as I got through the phone, Annie’s very friendly message came. sound.
"Brother, are you off work? Don't have dinner at the company after work. I bought some vegetables. I'll go to your place later. I'll cook something delicious for you tonight!" Annie's tone was full of excitement, as if she was in a very happy mood. good.
After hearing Annie's words, I was a little dumbfounded. I haven't told Annie about my being kicked out by the landlord. In fact, I didn't plan to tell her. If I let her know, it will definitely repeat the scene between me and Xiangdong in the morning.
And Annie and Xiangdong are somewhat different. Based on my relationship with Annie and my understanding of her, I know that she will not be as easy to deal with as Xiangdong. If I insist on refusing her help, she will definitely feel sad.In a sense, Annie is more like my family.
But now the fact that I wanted to conceal on purpose is about to be revealed, and I couldn't help feeling a little flustered, and stammered, "No Annie... don't bother me so much, why don't we eat outside!"
"No, brother, I've already bought some vegetables, and I'm rushing to your place now, come back quickly and call brother Liang."
Hearing this, I panicked even more and quickly said: "Annie, don't go, I'm not at home... No, it's not that I didn't go to work today, I'm not at the company now!" I became incoherent.
Annie didn't seem to notice my strangeness, she still said briskly: "Oh, you're not at work, then I'll notify Brother Liang, I'll be right there, come back and open the door for me!"
I almost collapsed, and it seems that there is no way to prevent this layer of window paper from being punctured.
I thought that Annie would know sooner or later anyway, so I might as well tell her now, an explanation would be inevitable sooner or later.
So I pondered for a while and said, "Annie, don't go, I...I don't live there anymore!"
"What? Bro, have you moved?" Annie finally changed her mood and said in surprise.
But what she said next left me speechless for a while. "Where do you live now? Tell me the address and I'll navigate there now!"
"I'll be waiting for you at the bar in Xiangdong, come here now!" I just felt my scalp tingle, and I didn't know what kind of emotional contrast Annie would have when she saw my new residence.
And how do I convince her that I actually like this new place.This made me a little anxious, wandering back and forth at the door of the warehouse, smoking one cigarette after another.
After about half an hour or so, I finally saw Annie's red Toyota driving towards me, and I hurried forward to signal her to drive into the warehouse yard behind from the aisle next to the bar.
Annie parked the car and looked at me suspiciously and said, "Brother, what did you ask me to do here, go home quickly, I was shooting exterior scenes at the beach today, and a fishing boat just came back to Hong Kong, I bought a few crabs, they are big, I I'm afraid it won't be fresh after I die!"
It dawned on me that Annie had something good to eat for me, and I was a little grateful.But in the current situation, I'm afraid I will waste your good intentions, I said to myself with some shame in my heart.
I opened the door of the warehouse to signal for Annie to come in and talk, and Annie walked in with me suspiciously.When she saw the furniture and bed I just bought, she became even more confused: "Brother? You are..." She obviously hasn't figured out the situation yet.
"I live here now!" I finally said.
"What?" Annie looked at me with wide eyes and said incredulously, "Brother, why did you move to the warehouse? What's going on?"
"The landlord of the house I lived in before was going to sell it, so I moved out. I just made do with it here before I found a suitable house, and moved out after I found a suitable house in the future!"
This is a lie I came up with before Anne arrived. I still don't want her to know the truth. At this moment, I just hope that this lie will not be seen through by her.
As long as I ponder over what I said, you will know that it is full of loopholes, but Annie doesn't seem to doubt my words. She looked around and said decisively: "Go to my house!" The bedside was about to help me pack my things, and there was an unquestionable firmness in his movements.
I hurried forward and grabbed Annie's arm and said, "Annie, listen to me!" Annie turned around and looked at me with complicated expressions in her eyes.
"Annie, you see it's good for me to live here, you see I've settled down, there's no need to bother to move to your house."
"Brother, this is a warehouse. How can I ignore you when I see you living in a warehouse." Annie's tone became a little fierce, and she continued: "I don't care what problems you have, anyway, I can't let you live in this kind of place !"
I felt a little parched and didn't know how to answer Anne's words.I pulled her to the second-hand sofa I just bought this afternoon, and pushed her to sit on the sofa.
"Annie, I know you care about me, but it's really not as serious as you think. I'm just making a transition for a while, and I will definitely move out when I find a good house!" I forcefully explained.
"Brother, tell me, what happened to you? If you are short of money, you can tell me, and I can help you. Why do you want to wrong yourself so much?"
Annie looked at me with a distressed expression and said, as if I had really suffered some great grievance.
"No, today the landlord suddenly said that he wanted to sell the house. It happened so suddenly that I didn't prepare for it. You know that finding a satisfactory house can't be done in a short time. Lived here, you see this bed was left by him, there is absolutely no problem living here, so don't think about it!"
I pretended to speak sincerely.
Annie was really puzzled by what I said: "Really?"
"real!"
"Then you should think of me first. Although my house is not very big, it is more than enough to accommodate you alone, and my studio can also accommodate people. Why did you come here?"
Annie seemed to be a little dissatisfied that I didn't think of her at the first time.
"Of course I have thought of you, but I think you are busy with work, and you don't want to be distracted by these trivial things! And I just said to the east that I can live here temporarily, so I moved here. If it weren't for this I don’t need you to tell me about the place, I will go to you!” I said duplicity.
"Really?" Annie asked the question just now again, but it could be seen that she already believed my nonsense.
"Of course it's true. Who told you to be kind and rich? I don't know how I have accumulated virtue in my life to know such a righteous friend like you!"
After listening to my praise, Annie finally smiled and said: "Okay, I will trust you for now, if you are not used to living here, you can move to my house, if you find it inconvenient, my studio also has vacant rooms for people to live in, if you want to live You can do whatever you want."
I nodded in agreement, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that this level has finally passed.
My heart relaxed and my hunger surged up immediately. I suddenly thought of what Annie said on the phone before, so I looked at Annie and smiled and said, "Then Annie, do you still want to make your big crab for my brother to eat?"
Annie suddenly stood up after hearing what I said, as if she suddenly remembered something, and then hurried out.I also followed out with doubts in my heart.
Annie walked quickly to the back of the car, opened the trunk and unscrewed a net bag. She was relieved to see the crabs still struggling inside.I leaned forward to take a look, and it was really big enough, each one was as big as a palm.
It seems that Annie really bought it from the port, because there are very few crabs of this size in the market.
"Fortunately, it's not suffocated yet. If I die, I won't be able to make it for you." Annie said with a sigh of relief.
I took the net bag from Annie's hand and said flatteringly: "I have never eaten such a big crab, Annie, can I eat two?"
Annie laughed happily and said, "Okay, there are only a few of them anyway, as long as you feel free to do whatever you want. It's just that you can't do it here, so you can only go to my house."
My old man blushed and hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, okay, go to your house, go now, you wait for me and I will lock the door!" After speaking, I quickly ran to lock the door without waiting for Annie to speak.
"Then, you see, there is nothing here, no heating in winter and no air conditioning in summer, you really decided to live here?" Xiang Dong asked me again.
I nodded and said, "That's it, it's so spacious here!" As I said, I put down my backpack and picked up the broom beside me to start cleaning while shaking my head and curling my lips.
