Chapter 53

Before going out, Lin Chen felt worried and turned his head to look at Ning Fei who was sleeping.

"what?"

I felt that I was wrong, why did I see sweat hanging from Ning Fei's temples?It shouldn't be.

Looking at Ning Fei who was tightly wrapped in the quilt, Lin Chi felt that his eyes were dazzled, if he was sweating from the heat, how could he fall asleep and still wrap the quilt so tightly?

The room was dark, and although it was the attic on the top floor, the room could only see the last light of the day at sunset.Lin Chen scratched his face in doubt. Last night the cat slept next to his face, and his face was numb and itchy, so last night's dream was unreliable, and he always felt that there was a black double-barreled shotgun pointed at him. It's not scary, it just makes people nervous.

"You read it wrong, or..." Lin Kai looked up at the ceiling, "Is there a water leak?"

Time is running out.Lin Chen didn't have time to think, he closed the door and went downstairs quickly.When I walked down the stairs, I couldn't help worrying, "If the ceiling is really leaking, I have to talk to the landlord."

It is said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here, so there is no need for Lin Yi to find the landlord.The landlord came to him first.

As soon as Lin Chi stepped out of the corridor, the landlord called to stop him, "Lin Chi, you haven't paid the rent for next month yet."

"Oh oh oh." Being reminded face to face by the landlord, Lin Kai hurriedly patted his forehead, took out his phone and apologized, ""I'm sorry, I forgot in a hurry.This transfers money to you. "

The mobile phone of the person opposite received a ding dong and received a transfer reminder.The landlord took a look at the phone and nodded to Lin Yue with a smile, turning around and leaving if there was nothing else to do.

"Uncle." Lin Quan hurriedly called to stop him.

"what's up?"

"There seems to be a leak in the ceiling of my house."

"Impossible! Although my house is cheap, it's not that bad."

"Yeah." Lin Chen nodded in agreement, and said bluntly, "Yes, it usually leaks when it rains. I'm still wondering why it leaked today when it didn't rain yesterday. I don't care. , just worried about Ning Fei..." Having said this, he sighed again.

The landlord uncle sneered. He thought that this silly boy had suddenly opened his mind and asked him to lower the rent because of the problems of the house. It turned out that he was worried that others would go.

Um?and many more?

The landlord pinched his chin and looked at Lin Yue with squinted eyes, "Is there still someone living? Didn't it be agreed that you would live alone?"

Lin Chen replied honestly, "Oh, I have a friend who has no place to live. I asked him to come and live with me. He just came here yesterday."

The landlord stretched out his hand towards Lin Qiu, "Then the two of you will have to pay more rent if you live together."

"But..." The landlord's overly righteous request made Lin Qu lose his momentum, and his voice became smaller and smaller, "But he made the floor, and we didn't have an extra bed."

The landlord was stunned for a moment, and then found an excuse to increase the rent, "Do you still have a cat? The people downstairs complained to me. You two have a cat, do I have to pay more? And if your cat What if I scratch my furniture again?"

"Furniture?" Lin Chi thought that all the furniture in the room was an old bed that rattled when turned over, a desk that would fall off when the drawers were pulled, and an old-fashioned wardrobe that smelled musty when opened. "Aren't they all old furniture?" Is it? When you rented the house, you said you had to lose it anyway, because it was too troublesome to move from upstairs to shelved."

"Huh?!" The landlord rolled his eyes, and Lin Chen lowered his head resignedly.

He muttered a little and drew a stare from the landlord, who gave him a hard stare, so he obediently took out his phone and gave the landlord a sum of money.Lin Chen was not very good at reasoning with people, but after thinking about it carefully, he turned back to the fierce-looking Ning Fei, and it seemed that the fierce-looking Ning Fei was a little accommodating to him.Thinking about it this way, Lin Qian didn't feel wronged when entering the payment code.

The landlord charged an extra sum of money, waved his hand in satisfaction, turned around and left.Looking at the back of the landlord leaving, Lin Chi shrugged his shoulders and persuaded himself, "It's okay, it's okay. Money, you have to spend it when you earn it." Looking down at the balance display on the phone, his shoulders immediately collapsed, "Oh, Eating is a problem!"

Because of the extra money, Lin Chi was moaning and sighing all morning.After knocking down the board for a while, he raised his head and pinched it with his bald fingers. He was trying to figure out how to save himself to get through this month.

"Is the 5 cents crispy noodles still on sale now?" Lin Kai said to himself after pinching his fingers, and then sighed again, "Oh..."

The two masters sitting in front of him couldn't take it anymore after listening to it all morning. They put down their work and turned to ask Lin Qiu, "Lin Qiu, you have been sighing all morning, we are all depressed by your sighing." Well, what's the matter, you tell the masters to hear it?"

Lin Chen scratched his head in embarrassment, he seldom took the initiative to trouble others, but now he had no choice but to survive this month without borrowing money.

Lin Chen raised his head and took a quick glance at the two masters, then lowered his head, pursed his lips and took a last breath, and said with great determination, "Master, can I receive next month's salary in advance?"

The two masters looked at each other, and Master Lin turned his head first and asked Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, is something wrong with you? Why are you thinking about paying your salary in advance?"

"No, no." Lin Chen blushed and waved his hands, not ashamed to say that he was spending money indiscriminately, making life more difficult, "Yes... yes..."

Most of the rent was deducted, and he also bought a very expensive kaleidoscope, leaving only a few hundred yuan in the card.

When Master Lin and Master Xu saw him like this, they thought he had something to hide. Master Lin helped him and said, "That's right, the apprentice's salary is only so little, so life must be a bit difficult. Besides, Lin Qiu is a foreigner and rents a house." And food, how can such a little salary be enough?"

"Yeah." Master Xu nodded ponderingly, glanced at Lin Qiu and said in a bit of a dilemma, "But Lin Qiu, let's not talk about the advance payment of wages, you've already used up next month's wages now, then you'll pay for the next month's salary." What do you do when you have no money again?"

"Oh yes."

Lin Chen didn't think about the long-term problem, he was only worried about the immediate, and after being reminded by Master Xu, he felt that this was not a good solution.Originally, the little salary made him starve for two days at the end of each month, and it would be even worse if he used it in advance.Do you want to find a part-time job?This is even more unfeasible. Although it is a handicraft job, the studio is open in a shopping mall, with six days off and one day off, and get off work at [-] o'clock in the evening. How can there be extra time for part-time jobs.Even if there is... Lin Chi doesn't really think about working part-time in the night show, he still remembers the embarrassing scene when he first went to Happy Garden, and feels that he can't handle it.

Lin Chen wanted to sigh again, thinking that the two masters were looking at him, he forcibly suppressed his frustration, put on a smiling face and changed the subject, "By the way, why didn't you see Master Liao today?"

"Old Liao said he was asking for leave for half a day, and he has something to do at home."

"Oh, I have something to do at home." Lin Chen answered absent-mindedly, still worrying about money.

Seeing his appearance, Master Xu felt sorry for him when he was young, and he came out to learn crafts from the master for the first time. This reminded him of himself when he was young, and he couldn't help but feel soft-hearted, "Lin Chi, how much money are you short? How about... "

Master Xu wanted to help Lin Chen, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Master Liao who came in suddenly, "I'm coming! I'm coming!"

The eyes of the three cast their gazes on Master Liao at the same time, and Master Lin looked at Master Liao who came in suddenly and asked strangely, "Didn't you say you will come in the afternoon?"

Master Liao wiped his face with his sleeve, "I thought it would take me a whole morning, but luckily it didn't take too long. I might be late again tomorrow, it really tossed my old bones."

"What's the matter? See how tired you are."

"It's not the children's debt." Master Liao sighed and continued, "Didn't my son set up a milk station, and it's not doing well now. If they hadn't had a second child, the business didn't seem to improve, and I didn't like it either." I returned my age to work and retired early.”

Master Liao is a native of Xinjiang. His hometown features fresh milk, yoghurt, tofu milk skin, and various dairy products, and they are very popular.

"Business is sluggish? No, I think there are still a lot of people ordering milk."

"It's a lot. But no one delivered it. Everyone ran to deliver food more, saying that it was more profitable. Now I can't find a milkman and get up early because I think the money is low. This is another one who resigned yesterday. You Just resign, but you can't just say quit after a phone call, people are caught off guard, there is no way, my son has to get up early in the morning to run, let me go over and help with scheduling."

Hearing this, Lin Chen's ears moved, the milkman?The mall opened at 09:30 in the morning, and he basically didn't go to work until ten o'clock in the morning. He heard from Master Liao that the milk delivery seemed to be at four o'clock in the morning.

"That, Master Liao." Lin Chen took the initiative to speak, "Do you think I can do this part-time job?"

"You?" Master Liao glanced at Lin Yi, looked at his fair and tender round face and small arms and legs for a long time, no matter how you looked at it, he felt that he was a spoiled child, which seemed inappropriate, "Some communities where milk delivery is not available. , running up and down is very hard."

"It's okay, just do morning exercises."

"I still have to move boxes."

"Don't look at me like this, my arm is strong." Lin Qian raised his arm and patted it.

"We don't have a car, you have to have an electric car yourself."

"I have a bicycle!"

Although not good at riding.

Lin Chen grinned, and didn't say the last half of the sentence. At worst, he would get up early and send it off.

Master Liao had no choice but to frighten Lin Quan away by talking hard, but in the end, Lin Quan did not retreat, but he was eager to try.Seeing Lin Chen's determined look, he could only nod his head in agreement, "Then you can try it tomorrow."

After the matter was agreed, everyone lowered their heads and focused on the work in hand.When Master Xu turned around, he heard Lin Qiu calling to him in a low voice, and when he turned around, he saw Lin Qiu showing a row of neat little teeth, and whispered to himself with a smile, "Thank you, Master Xu."

"no need thank me?"

Obviously no money was borrowed.

"Thank you for worrying about me."

Master Xu turned around with a cold face, and when he was about to pick up the carving knife, the corners of his mouth twitched. He was such a child that no one could hate.

Ning Fei didn't dare to open his eyes until long after Lin Chen had gone out.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the cat standing majestically on the head of the bed, wagging its tail and looking down at him.

"Smelly cat!" Ning Fei was a little angry, the result of being bored all night.Throwing off the quilt and sitting up from the ground, Latte watched him sit up, stop wagging his tail, raised his chin and looked at Ning Fei, looking a little bit like a cat.

Ning Fei felt uncomfortable being watched by him, pulled the quilt to wrap around his waist, and looked at his latte with some sense of guilt and said, "You have become a eunuch, so why do you want me to be like you!"

"Meow!" Latte made a sharp cry, which was completely different from the cry he made yesterday when he rubbed his hair around Lin Qiu's feet, and Ning Fei's frowning brows were blocked to his ears.

"You!" Ning Fei raised his fist to get close to him, but the latte didn't hide, and his vertical pupils stared at Ning Fei fiercely.Ning Fei lowered his hand, and tapped it with his index finger in the air, "Isn't it just relying on Lin Qiu to pamper you?"

Concerned about how much Lin Chen cared about the cat, Ning Fei didn't do anything to the latte after all.I got up and took a cold shower in the small toilet.According to his stature, he couldn't turn around in the small bathroom.There is a shower head above the sink, and the toilet is next to it, which is a small place that Lin Qiu's small body can barely accept.

After taking a shower indiscriminately, Ning Fei really felt that the bathroom was very cramped, and he was about to come out when he opened the door, but he would not expect to be knocked on the head by the door frame.It was because he was too tall and didn't pay attention, but he only complained that the door was too short, and squatted down with his forehead covered, cursing, "What kind of lousy land did Lin Chen rent?! Why can't I rent a decent place for [-] yuan?" Order? Why are you so reluctant to pay?"

Thinking of Lin Chen's stinginess, Ning Fei felt angry again, but when he thought of the time Lin Chen simply gave the watch to Boss Xue yesterday, Ning Fei couldn't get angry at all.

Latte limped over to Ning Fei to see his jokes.Seeing that he bumped his forehead, seeing that he was strong on the outside but hard on the inside, it turned out to be Lin Chi.

Ning Fei stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Latte's head.Latte didn't cooperate, he didn't show an intimate and friendly attitude to Ning Fei like he did to Lin Qiao, he shook his head, and limped away.

"Smelly cat, I chose your name, so you can't treat me better." Ning Fei rested his chin on his knees and looked at the latte who was indifferent and only gave himself a back view, "That's right. It is said that cats have spirituality." , you can also see that I am a bad person, so look down on me."

"Meow." Latte yelled again, a very normal yell, not in the tone he had just given to Ning Fei, and after yelling, he lay down on the pants that Lin Kai changed in the morning, licked his paw twice, and then looked at Ning Fei.

Ning Fei took a look at the jeans that were being held down by the cat, it was the pair of Lin Chen's torn jeans yesterday, "You want me to..."

Ning Fei didn't finish his sentence, and the cat didn't respond, and continued to lick its paws.Ning Fei smiled, stood up on her knees, "You don't need to say, I will definitely have to get that watch back."

It was a watch that belonged to Lin Chi, and it should be returned to its original owner.

"Brother, this watch should belong to you at first glance. The boy with a round face before was so childish, he couldn't afford such an eye-catching watch at all. This watch matches your temperament. I think this watch is only a real thing in your hands." Back to the original owner."

Boss Xue was very happy to be flattered by his subordinates. He raised his hand above his head and deliberately shook his wrist to reveal his watch. Picking up the wine in hand, he took a sip happily.

"If you haven't studied for a few days, don't learn how to use idioms. Is this how people return things to their original owners?"

Boss Xue spilled half of the wine in his hand, turned his head and saw Ning Fei walking towards him, immediately rolled down his sleeves to hide his watch, jumped off the chair and quickly took two steps back to distance himself from Ning Fei.He instinctively felt that Ning Fei came here to return the watch.

Intuition is right.Ning Fei stopped in front of Boss Xue, and without greeting, he reached out and went straight to the point, "Give me back the watch."

"Why?"

"Because it's not yours!" Ning Fei was furious all night, and before Boss Xue made a fuss, he spit fire first.Roaring up, he was about to clamp Boss Xue's arm, trying to take off the watch directly, "If you don't understand, then I'll chop off your hand!"

Fortunately, Boss Xue hid quickly, and another younger brother came up to help him block, but Ning Fei didn't catch him.Boss Xue retreated behind others and watched as Ning Fei threw all the people who rushed to the ground angrily.Boss Xue shook his head and asked the red-eyed Ning Fei, "Then why did you come to take it? Why is it yours? If you're rushing so fast, is that kid yours? I don't think so."

These words were like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head, Ning Fei was stunned for a moment, and someone came up to try to restrain him in this gap.Fortunately, Ning Fei responded quickly, and dodged back when the shoulder was buckled.

Boss Xue raised his hand and motioned everyone to back down, "Ning Fei, that kid gave this watch willingly. It's not yours. Besides, you can give it to me if you say so? Why have you dragged my debt for so many years?" What to do? You were diligent in repaying your debts two years ago. I guess I didn’t do much, but I realized that I was afraid of your family background and didn’t dare to do it lightly, so I hung up on you. You said that your bad debt was finally replaced by someone. Pay it back, no matter what you say today, I don't have to return this watch. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. "

"I will pay back the money."

"Then you bring the money first, and then I will give you the watch. I don't do business at a loss."

"Where did I get 200 million all of a sudden?!" Ning Fei roared, and the veins on his neck burst out as he roared.

Boss Xue laughed, "That's your business, I don't care about that much."

The blue veins on Ning Fei's temples also popped out, his brows were tightly frowned, and his appearance was a little scary, all the people present swallowed unconsciously.

"Then don't sell this watch, I will pay the money every month as usual. When it is paid off, return this watch to me."

"it is good."

Ning Fei didn't expect Boss Xue to agree so readily, he was slightly taken aback, and the veins that burst out gradually calmed down, "Are you serious?"

"of course."

"That……"

Boss Xue looked at the hesitant Ning Fei, raised his eyebrows and said, "What? Do you want to stay and let me buy you tea? Ning Fei, you have no room to negotiate terms with me now. Just agree, you can go .”

Boss Xue raised his hand as a gesture of invitation.

Ning Fei took another look at Boss Xue's wrist and turned around helplessly, then stopped suddenly when he came to the door.Everyone stiffened their backs when they saw him stop, and they were waiting for the battle, for fear that he would kill the carbine.

"I still have something to ask."

Seeing that he didn't turn around and shake his fist, Boss Xue heaved a sigh of relief, almost patted his chest, pressed his heart that jumped into his throat, "Can you ask me all at once, hurry up and leave."

"Where did you hear about the watch?"

"Stop talking, it's my little brother."

Ning Fei glanced at the people present, and the younger brothers present felt a shudder because they heard Ning Fei ask, "Which one?"

"Which one is it?" Boss Xue scratched his temple, and the servant behind him came to his ear. Boss Xue nodded and told Ning Fei, "It's called Fang Qiang, do you know him?"

"Fang Qiang?" Ning Fei frowned and thought about it carefully, feeling as if he didn't know this person, and then took another look at the people present, "Is he here?"

Boss Xue looked back at the follower who was close to him, and the follower shook his head.Boss Xue spread his arms and shrugged at Ning Fei.

Ning Fei had no choice but to make a long-term plan after leaving here.

As soon as Ning Fei left, there was a burst of exhalation in the room.Sticking to Boss Xue's follower, he asked, "Boss, is this okay? Don't you want to have something to do with Ning Fei?"

"He's not just that kind of person. Besides, he's dragged me for so many years, so it's time for me to wear him down. I still wear the watch, and he pays the money back. Thinking about it, I'm not losing money." Mr. Xue laughed He raised his hand to appreciate the watch on his wrist, "This watch, you should wear it more often to show your status."

"What about Fang Qiang? From Ning Fei's tone, it seems that he wants to trouble him."

"Fang Qiang?" Boss Xue clicked his lips, "Forget it, let them go. With Fang Qiang, Ning Fei won't always stare at me for trouble. But watch carefully, don't make a big mess."
