The women I let down in those years

Wu Xiaolan's family attaches great importance to tonight's meal. I just got up when Wu Xiaolan called me to ask me what my taboos were, what kind of food I like to eat, whether I like to drink white wine or beer.

I don't have any taboos, so I asked Wu Xiaolan not to be so nervous and not to prepare anything deliberately, just to have an ordinary meal.

Wu Xiaolan promised, but I knew that their family would definitely be well prepared.

To put it in a small way, it was me who paid for the surgery and helped their family get through the difficulties. In a big way, I was their family’s savior!

When Wu Xiaolan's father had an accident, they had already borrowed money from relatives and friends, plus their family's savings over the years, but they were still short of 20,000 yuan. If I hadn't made up the money, Wu Xiaolan's father's injury would have been delayed. I didn't dare It is said that he will definitely die, but he should also be left with disabilities or sequelae.

So they really treated me as a lifesaver.

I feel very guilty for their attitude because I didn't do anything.

Now that you're awake, get up.

I turned on my computer and took a look at Taobao. The gift I bought for the little pastor yesterday had been shipped, but the address was mine.

I looked at the time and guessed that the little pastor had already gotten up, so I sent her a screenshot of the shipment on Penguin.

Me: It’s broken! I forgot to change my address when I placed the order last night. The things I bought for you have to be sent to me.

Young Pastor: Huh? What should we do?

Me: I just told the merchant that the express delivery has been sent out. There is no way to change the address. It can only be delivered to me.

Young Pastor: Okay.

The little pastor said okay, which was obviously just an excuse. She also wanted to say something else, such as asking me to buy another copy or send it to her when it arrived, but she was too embarrassed to say it directly.

I waited for a few seconds and then tentatively said: How about you come to H City for a walk when you go home for the holidays? Didn’t you already say that you wanted to come to H City?

Young Pastor: Huh? is this okay? Aren't you very busy?

Me: It depends on the situation when you are busy. If you come to see me, I will definitely be able to make time to accompany you.

Me: You can come to H city for a few days and then go back to your hometown. I will book a ticket for you in advance.

Young Pastor: Then let me think about it.

When the young pastor said this, it was actually a sign that he was shaken in his heart, but he was still reserved.

Me: Is there anything else you want to think about? You've finished your exams, and it's time to go out and relax. Just think of it as traveling before the Chinese New Year. There are a lot of fun things here, and I promise to arrange them clearly for you.

After waiting for a while, there was still no movement from the little pastor, so I sent another message: By the way, it’s not easy for you to come here. It’s hard to buy tickets now. Give me an account and I’ll transfer some travel expenses to you first. past.

This time the little priest finally made some noise.

Young Pastor: No, no, I still have the travel expenses.

Me: I know you have it, but what’s yours is yours, and what I give you is what I give you. These are two different things. Can I still make your trip in vain? Come on, send me the card number.

The young pastor said a few more reserved words, and then "reluctantly" sent the card number.

I didn't hesitate and transferred a thousand yuan directly through online banking and sent a screenshot to her.

Me: Okay, here’s the fare. I’ll take you out to play when you arrive.

Young Pastor: Well, let me pack up and set off today.

Finally no longer reserved.

By the time the young priest arrives, the matter will almost be done.

Not many people can withstand the offensive of money, especially when the other party also has this intention.

The young pastor may not be very interesting to me, but she is definitely interested in money.

After taking care of the little pastor, I went out and bought some gifts.

If you want to meet Wu Xiaolan's parents in the evening, you can't go empty-handed.

Considering that Wu Xiaolan's father had just been discharged from the hospital, most of the gifts I bought were supplements, which were helpful for recovery.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Xiaolan called me and asked if I was done with my work. She obviously planned to let me go now.

I thought it was too early, so I said I still had something to do and I wouldn't arrive until about five o'clock.

Why go so early?

Wu Xiaolan's parents and I are not familiar with each other, so it's not interesting to sit together and be polite for a long time.

It's better to rest at home and wait until dinner time before going there.

If it weren't for Wu Xiaolan, I would really be too lazy to attend such a meaningless dinner.

I played at home until five o'clock, when Wu Xiaolan called again, and I went out calmly.

Wu Xiaolan's father had just been discharged from the hospital and needed money for follow-up treatment, so they were very tight on money, so they prepared meals at home instead of going to a restaurant.

Including me, there were only four people in total, but their family prepared twelve dishes, which can be said to be very rich.

Wu Xiaolan’s parents were also very enthusiastic towards me and kept thanking me, saying that if I hadn’t taken out the money at the critical moment, they really didn’t know what they would have done.

Of course, I followed them politely and said that Wu Xiaolan was the accountant of our company and something happened to her family. As a boss, I definitely couldn't sit back and ignore it.

They were polite to each other for a while, and then sat down to eat.

But even when eating, Wu Xiaolan's parents were very polite to me and seemed very reserved.

Obviously I am the youngest, but my status is the highest.

Wu Xiaolan's father couldn't drink, and Wu Xiaolan's mother had to prepare meals and clean up after eating, so she could only let Wu Xiaolan accompany me to drink.

Fortunately, I mentioned drinking beer before, so Wu Xiaolan wouldn’t be embarrassed.

While eating and chatting, Wu Xiaolan’s parents mainly expressed their gratitude to me and asked some questions about my personal situation.

After finishing a bottle of beer, Wu Xiaolan's face turned slightly red and she looked quite cute.

At this time, Wu Xiaolan's father asked me.

"Mr. Wang, I see you are still very young, in your early twenties, right?"

"Me? Early twenties?"

I quickly shook my head, "I'm only eighteen years old. I graduated from high school half a year ago."

"Huh? Eighteen years old?"

Wu Xiaolan's parents looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.

Not to mention that they can't believe it, even I can't believe that I could have such a status when I was eighteen years old when I see what I am like now.

But this is the fact.

Ever since I started managing the night bar, I have started to dress in a more mature style. Although it doesn't make me look very mature, at least it won't let people tell at a glance that I'm under twenty.

Now it seems that the effect is still very good.

Wu Xiaolan's father was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses.

"I really can't tell! Mr. Wang can manage a bar at such a young age. He is really young and promising."

Wu Xiaolan's mother nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I have always heard Xiaolan mention you, and I thought you were about the same age as Xiaolan. Xiaolan is also twenty-three this year."

"Mom, why are you talking about me again?"

Wu Xiaolan complained softly, but I heard her clearly.

Wu Xiaolan's mother smiled and replied, "What? Do you think there is too much age difference between you and Mr. Wang?"

I raised my head and looked at Wu Xiaolan's mother, and suddenly felt that her words contained other meanings.
