born to ashes

Josh tossed and turned and couldn't sleep when he got home.

How long has it been? When Wei Wenqu asked the question, most people happily watched his jokes, seeing how Josh can get along without Mr. Wei as his backer, and what he thought most about was how to be in Mr. Wei's place. Covering the sky with one hand, he retreated from the whole body.But in fact, Wei Wenqu may not be able to cover the sky with one hand.He never considered how he felt.No one told him that you should do what you like, and not do what you don't like. In his cognition, there are only things that can be done, and if I do something, I may die.

How many years are there in one's life, and you will have to hold back in the urn for so long in the future, why don't you live a few years now.

The day he went to Shengshi without telling anyone, he suddenly appeared on the first floor and asked Daxu for a glass of wine with his signature smile.Zheng Fei was taken aback when he saw him, and pulled him into the corner in a flash, "Why are you here! Wei Wenqu is here today!"

"Boss Zheng," Josh said, taking a sip of his wine, "you look like those surprised mothers right now, do you know? Strictly speaking, you can be counted as one of the most famous people. You can't fall if you see the sky like this." Fall."

"Josh."

Before Zheng Fei could speak, someone called Josh. Josh looked back and said, "Isn't this Brother Nine?"

"Ninth Brother." Zheng Fei called out uncomfortably.

"I'm here to deliver a message for Brother Cheng."

Jiuzi is a senior figure under Brother Cheng, and he has been at odds with Zheng Fei, a new force who has just emerged, and the two have a lot of rivalry. Josh pushed Zheng Fei, and Zheng Fei also nodded. side. Only then did Josh speak, "Ninth brother, let's be clear first, is this word passed on for Brother Cheng or Young Master Wei?"

"Don't Mr. Wei mean what Brother Cheng means?" Jiu Zi glanced at Josh, and there was a bit of yin and yang in his words.

"You," he continued, "Sheng Shi dare not stay any longer. According to Mr. Wei, if you go back and admit your mistake, not only Sheng Shi, you won't be able to stay in Pearl City any longer."

"Okay Brother Ninth, I see." Josh brushed back the broken hair that fell out, "Please also send a message for me, just say, I don't believe that there is no place in Zhucheng that Wei Wenqu can't cover. "

After finishing speaking, he threw the empty wine glass in his hand into the trash can on the side, walked a few steps and then turned around and said, "Also, thank Brother Cheng for his cultivation over the years, thank you very much."

After finishing speaking, he threw flying eyes all over, and walked out with the corners of his eyes raised.

Zheng Fei hurried over to pull him, Josh stopped, looked at Zheng Fei, Zheng Fei and him looked at each other for a long time, but couldn't say anything.

After a while, he said angrily: "Just right! Ever since you got involved with Wen Yu, I wish you could stay far away from the prosperity, just right!"

Josh laughed too, "Exactly."

What a Wei Wenqu, he hasn't changed from the beginning to the end, he is a proper scum.Why didn't he notice such an annoying temperament before?These people don’t treat people as human beings, they just think in their hearts that if they reincarnated well, they are better than everyone else.

Josh pressed the broken hair on the top of his head and tightened the hair tie again. He thought through gritted teeth, sooner or later he would shave it all.

Zheng Fei sent Josh off for a while, and stood at the gate of Shengshi with a gesture of saying goodbye. Josh watched Mr. Zheng's posture about to shed a few tears, thinking about running quickly.Manager Zheng's tears hadn't brewed yet, and he hadn't had time to run, when a greasy fat man got out of the car, his flesh bouncing.

Josh pretended not to see it.

But Zheng Fei couldn't pretend he didn't see it, so he quickly laughed, "Mr. Liu, you're here."

Josh couldn't help snorting from his nose.

Mr. Liu ignored Zheng Fei, and walked over to Josh directly, "Isn't this Josh? I heard that he offended Mr. Wei?"

Josh dodges, glancing at him with a frown.

They are all fat, so why is the one Zhang Zhihe knows so cute?Looking at this again, I almost spit out the overnight meal.

Mr. Liu was furious with Josh's appearance. He stretched out his fat arm that was strangled in two by the watch strap and pointed at Josh, "You bastard who doesn't know what to do! Do you think you have the right to take Joe without Mr. Wei? Seeing you is your supreme blessing, aren't you a fucking rabbit master, what do you think you are?"

"I'm a rabbit master! I'm happy." Josh raised his chin and rolled his eyes.

Josh folded his arms and looked at Mr. Liu with a smile, "It's a pity that you just can't afford me, you are only worthy of hanging out with Tony forever, in terms of climbing, you are not as good as me, a rabbit!"

Zheng Fei pulled Josh for a while, afraid that he would make Mr. Liu angry, but customers are gods, so he hurriedly called people to welcome Mr. Liu in, and pushed Josh out.

Zheng Fei walked with him on Nanning Street for a while, and sent him to the street corner.

"It's just not here, this time it's not you who want to leave by yourself, it's brother Cheng who chased you, he will definitely not trouble you, there is just a reason to leave Nanning Street openly." Zheng Fei muttered as he walked.

Josh caught Mr. Liu out of his anger, and he became in a good mood, facing Mr. Zheng's nagging, it was miraculously pleasant to his ears.

"It's funny, and I never thought it would be so easy to leave Shengshi." Josh laughed, "Those people really think Shengshi is a good place. They thought I would be tossing and tossing and sleepless if they drove me away. , Maybe they still pointed at me and begged them to let me go back? I can't wait to go."

Zheng Fei knew what Brother Cheng and Wei Wenqu were thinking, but he thought that Josh had no source of income and couldn't afford the previous squandering methods, and he would definitely go back and admit his mistake by then.But he knows Josh, he has never been the kind of person who pursues the quality of life, he can get by with everything, and his consumption level depends on the amount of money in his hand, how much he spends.Zheng Fei babbled for a while, then said, "If you are short of money..."

"Stop," Josh interrupted Zheng Fei, "Can I be short of money? The money in my card is enough for me to spend several lifetimes."

Zheng Fei curled his lips, "You added rhetorical tricks to your card, right?"

Josh took out a cigarette and lit it, walked out of Nanning Street slowly, and waved to Zheng Fei.

Zheng Fei stood there and looked at him.

Thinking back to when he first entered the prosperous world, he was still working as a receptionist at the door, and Josh was not the number one. Josh entered the door and threw the cat into his arms, and threw a flying eye at him, with bright red lips raised, and said, "Hey, I'm Josh."

Before Josh woke up the next day, someone knocked on the door. He looked at the watch on the side, and it was only after seven o'clock.It's early in the morning, what are you doing!

He opened the door with his messy hair, and found Liu Wenqi standing at the door.

Liu Wenqi's father is an old ace professor of Zhuhai University, this house belongs to that old professor, after the professor got old, he entered a nursing home, and Josh lived in the house.The furniture inside was all ready-made. At that time, Josh didn't move it, so he added a leather sofa. Anyway, he spent all day in the prosperous world and didn't go home very much.

It was quite a surprise to see Liu Wenqi now.

Liu Wenqi took an envelope and handed it to Josh, saying that the rent for the next few months would be refunded to him, and the house would not be rented anymore.

Josh woke up, and even with his little finger, he knew that Wei Wenqu had fiddled with this kind of thing.

Liu Wenqi smiled a little embarrassedly, and put another thousand on the table. Josh kept his demeanor, didn't swear a word, sent him off politely, and promised to move out before today.

After closing the door, he picked up the 1000 yuan on the table, and then threw it back on the table, cursing, "Damn, I need the 1000 yuan?"

Although he didn't stay at home very much, he suddenly felt a little emotional when he said that he couldn't live anymore.

In fact, it’s not impossible for him to rent another house. If he can’t rent it, he can buy it. He is not short of money. Wei Wenqu can’t cut his way so comprehensively.

But he doesn't want to leave the family home.

He actually longed for this kind of college life.Although I know I can't blend in, I still want to get closer.

After feeling so emotional, even the big-headed color TV looked much more pleasing to the eye.

He went over and turned on the switch, and there were two buzzing sounds. The color TV stubbornly turned on the picture, and the Central Seventh was spreading the sutra of raising pigs to get rich. Josh watched it decently for a long time, and didn't even think about eating lunch.I'm unemployed anyway, why don't I consider raising a pig to get rich?

Before he recovered from raising pigs, there was a knock on the door.

He turned down the volume of the TV, pulled his slippers to the door and opened it.

Seeing the person at the door, he stared, and quickly invited him into the room, "Hey, Mr. Liu, why are you here?"

Mr. Liu swung his son behind him with his cane, and said, "It's useless."

Josh invited Mr. Liu to sit on the sofa and poured a cup of hot water.

Liu Wenqi didn't come in at the door. Josh glanced at the door and stood there for a long time. After seeing it, Mr. Liu said, "Leave him alone, let him stand there and reflect."

Liu Wenqi, who came to refund the rent in the morning, is now standing at the door cowardly, not daring to enter.

"Ah Xi, don't worry about that little bastard, just live here with peace of mind, I tell you to live here." Mr. Liu put the water glass on the table and asked Josh to sit down.

"Old Liu, it's okay. If it's inconvenient, I can just move out, and it's not a problem."

"Why is it inconvenient, let me see who dares to kick you out!" He said and glanced at his son at the door.

Liu Wenqi stood by the door and whispered, "You can't blame me, isn't that related to my conversion..."

As he spoke, he gradually lost his confidence and his voice became low.

Mr. Liu slammed the ground a few times with his crutches, "Fart! Your academic achievements in broad daylight can be wiped out by such a son of an official? How dare you come here to drive people away? What's your brain! You have studied benevolence and righteousness for half your life. Where's Li Zhixin? Who lives here? It's your father's benefactor, so you'd be ashamed to go out without a brain!"

Liu Wenqi also complained endlessly, the matter of being promoted to the dean was almost settled half a year ago, who knew that Mr. Wei would be killed at the critical moment.That's good, it's hard to be a man at both ends.His father still looks at things according to the thinking of the older generation, not to mention, the son of an official is really capable, but given him eight hundred courage, he would not dare to talk back to Mr. Liu at this time.

"Mr. Liu, it's fine. I've been staying with you for many years. I'm really sorry to cause trouble. Even if you let me live, I'm sorry. You let me get in the way, and I feel sorry for myself, don't I. This matter, it's up to me to make trouble for Vice President Liu."

This matter was originally Wei Wenqu's unreasonable arrest and bite. Josh also knew that Liu Wenqi was a kind person, and he would not come here to chase people unless he had to.

"What do you say, my old man can let you have no place to live, you can live, no one dares to say a word."

Mr. Liu was determined, and he couldn't let Josh have no place to live.

Josh felt a little unspeakable in his heart.Mr. Liu never knew what Josh was doing, he just thought that Josh was a poor boy who came to Zhucheng to work, with no money and no power.Mr. Liu left Josh in the first place to give him a place to stay. The housing price in Zhucheng is expensive. He was kicked out so suddenly. Mr. Liu must have thought that he had nowhere to go.

"Dad, but this contract has been signed with others." Vice President Liu whispered at the door, aggrieved.

"Axi paid the rent, didn't you give it back?"

Josh sighed, that's what he said, but when he lived here, Mr. Liu didn't want to charge him the rent. He insisted on paying the rent, and the contract was never signed. From the legal point of view, this house should not he lives.

Liu Wenqi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and didn't explain the contract to Mr. Liu, so he quickly interrupted, "Dad, don't we have a house upstairs?"

Mr. Liu gave him a sideways look, and he didn't dare to speak anymore. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, when the surname Wei came, he just said that he took over the house on the third floor, and let Axi go to the fourth floor to make do with it." , the school put pressure on me once, I listen, and they are embarrassed again, isn't this the best of both worlds?"

After he finished speaking, he stared at Josh, for fear that Josh would say nothing.

Josh thought about it, isn't Wei Linze living on the fourth floor?

Wei Linze was annoyed all morning by Professor Huang's words, "It's incredible!", and his head was buzzing.

Before the teaching evaluation started, Professor Huang was already suffering from anxiety attacks. If the experts really came to the school, Professor Huang would have to send him directly to the emergency room.

It didn't stop all morning, he simply lost the mood to eat at noon, and went home and lay on the sofa directly.

He only squinted for a while, when he heard several knocks on the door, which woke him up directly.

The buildings in this family courtyard are all old buildings, there is no doorbell, and the sound of knocking on the door is too low to be heard, so most people don't control their strength, and they slam the door so loudly that it can make the brain jump in place.

Wei Linze pulled on his slippers, walked to the door and opened it.

The moment he saw Mr. Liu standing at the door, Professor Huang's words "It's amazing" came out of his mind unconsciously.

"Teacher, why are you here?"

Mr. Liu called out "Ah Ze", Josh popped up from behind, smiled meanly, and waved his hands.

Wei Linze invited Mr. Liu to the sofa, brewed a pot of tea and brought him over.Mr. Liu took a sip, "You have ruined the good tea, I told you to learn these tea ceremony calligraphy music, to cultivate your unenlightened sentiment."

"My sentiment is just like this, there is no cure." Wei Linze muttered in a low voice, like an ignorant child.

Josh took a sip of the tea, and it was really not that good. In terms of this, Wei Linze is definitely not as good as him.

"Is it almost time for the teaching evaluation?" Elder Liu asked.

"Hurry up," Wei Linze moved a small bench and sat on the side, "You don't know, Professor Huang is almost dying of nervousness about this, muttering in my ear all day long, 'That's amazing!', look at me Are the ears too thick?"

"You can't tell with your ears, but your mouth is getting better and better."

Wei Linze's lip service was properly taught by this teacher, and he took it from Lan and was better than Lan. Josh smiled and glanced at the teacher and the student.

"Which one is Professor Huang?" Elder Liu asked Wei Linze.

"Professor Huang Si."

"Huang Si..." Mr. Liu tapped the ground rhythmically with his cane, "Huang Si has become a professor, how many years has it been?"

"Not many years." Wei Linze was afraid that Mr. Liu would start to lament his age.

Josh interjected, "If you look at me more, I don't think it's going too fast. I haven't changed much."

Only then did Mr. Liu remember Josh, waved at Josh, and said to Wei Linze: "This is Axi, who used to live downstairs. That little bastard Liu Wenqi rented the house downstairs to someone else. I thought about it for a while." , let Axi come and live with you here."

Liu Wenqi showed his head at the door and greeted Wei Linze.

"Why didn't Senior Brother come in?"

"Your teacher punished me to study benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith outside." He shouted from outside.

Mr. Liu ignored his son, and continued to talk to Wei Linze, "A few years ago I fell down on the road due to hypoglycemia, but it was thanks to Axi who sent me to the hospital. He is a benefactor. You have to let him live here comfortably, otherwise I will I will throw you out and write "On Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom and Faith" together with Liu Wenqi."

Liu Wenqi outside shouted, "You still have to write without telling me."

Josh was so happy that his eyes disappeared, and he mouthed to Wei Linze, "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness."

Why is this person so unpopular?

Before Mr. Liu left, he urged him to take good care of Josh. Wei Linze agreed and escorted him into the car. He wiped off his sweat.

After he went back, he looked at Josh and smiled, "Axi."

"Hi Azer."
