Morbid Addiction

After the Chinese New Year, the shops in the commercial market opened one after another.The government vigorously develops new commercial markets. It demolished an old market in the old city, moved all the merchants here, and gradually developed the surrounding areas. Not only will the subway be connected by the end of the year, but a large-scale furniture mall will also be built in the surrounding areas.

As the shops started to open one after another, the number of customers increased. Many customers who originally bought goods from the old market have transferred over. The location of Chen Yuncheng's store is good, and many new customers come to ask prices every day.

Chen Yuncheng has an easy-going and generous personality, and he can chat with anyone. He handed over the delivery work to Guan Anlin as much as possible, and spent most of his time in the store. Many customers came to ask the price without buying anything. He can also chat with people with enthusiasm.There are also customers who drive to the market to pick up goods, no matter how much they buy or how little they buy, he will take the initiative to help move the goods.

Seeing that the business is getting better, Sun Shiliang promised to give Chen Yuncheng a sales commission, and his income is also increasing.He owes Ning Junyan that 10,000+. He used to think that it would be far away to pay it off, but now he feels that he can see the end.

Feeling gradually relaxed, what Chen Yuncheng misses most is the matter with Ning Junyan.

Since Ning Junyan left him that night, he hasn't come to him for a long time, but what Ning Junyan said has always been remembered in Chen Yuncheng's heart.

Chen Yuncheng then called to ask Ning Junyan if his head still hurts.

Ning Junyan was lying on the bed and said to him, "Sometimes."

Chen Yuncheng was very worried, and said, "Go and have a look, and do an examination."

Ning Junyan said: "After the examination, it's a nervous headache, which can't be cured." But it didn't happen often, he just didn't tell Chen Yuncheng.

Chen Yuncheng said, "Let me come and see you."

Ning Junyan did not agree immediately, but asked, "Have you thought about it yet?"

Chen Yuncheng was sitting on the steps in front of the shop, the down jacket had been replaced by a thick padded jacket, he looked at the people and cars passing by from time to time, and said, "Can't we date like ordinary couples?" After finishing these words, Chen Yuncheng himself felt quite embarrassed.

Ning Junyan asked him: "How do ordinary couples date?"

"Eat and watch a movie?" Chen Yuncheng didn't know too well, anyway, it was always like that in TV dramas, so he didn't know what else to do.

Ning Junyan said, "Are you inviting me to dinner and a movie?"

Chen Yuncheng raised his hand and gently scratched his cheek, he always felt a little itchy, and said, "Is it okay?"

Ning Junyan asked again: "Are you pursuing me?"

Chen Yuncheng was taken aback by the question, he thought they were already together, but since Ning Junyan asked this question, he chose to admit it in embarrassment: "Is it okay?"

Ning Junyan said: "That's not enough, we have to open a room."

"Ah?" Chen Yuncheng was a little surprised, "A room on the first date?"

Ning Junyan said: "If you didn't have to move out, do you need to open a room outside? I could have slept with you every day."

For a moment, Chen Yuncheng felt as if he was sorry for Ning Junyan. When he thought of having a room with Ning Junyan, he couldn't stop blushing and said, "Okay, when do you have time?"

Ning Junyan told him, "Tomorrow night."

Chen Yuncheng said, "I will make arrangements."

As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Anlin drove the van back from outside to deliver goods, and stopped at the door of the store.

Chen Yuncheng hung up the phone, looked up and watched Guan Anlin get off the car.

Guan Anlin had already taken off his coat and was only wearing a thin long-sleeved T-shirt. He walked up to Chen Yuncheng and sat down, lit a cigarette for himself, and said, "Let's hire another person." He is going to deliver the goods now, and Chen Yuncheng asked him to Try to help customers move the goods, so that the workload becomes larger and the efficiency becomes lower.

Of course customers are very happy.

It's just that Guan Anlin's physical strength was exhausted, and he was extremely tired every day when he came back.

"Thanks for your hard work," Chen Yuncheng said to him, "I'll discuss it with Brother Sun and hire someone to help deliver the goods."

Guan Anlin felt relieved after sitting and smoking a whole cigarette. Chen Yuncheng took his coat from the car and asked him to put it on.

"Let's go out to eat something good tonight," Guan Anlin said to Chen Yuncheng, he has a lot of money recently, naturally because Chen Yuncheng is very generous to him and is willing to give him wages.

Chen Yuncheng shook his head.Every meal they eat is very simple. There is a ten-yuan box lunch at the entrance of the market. The price is cheap and there is plenty of oil and water. It is suitable for people who do physical work. Chen Yuncheng and Guan Anlin eat there almost every day.

After Guan Anlin got the money, he wanted to improve the food.

In the end, Chen Yuncheng still refused.He has to save money to pay back to Ning Junyan, and he has to pay for dating Ning Junyan. He is reluctant to let Ning Junyan eat poorly, and he can't open a room in a hotel that is too cheap.

At night, Chen Yuncheng was lying on the bed, using his mobile phone to search for places to eat, search for nearby hotels, and had to book movie tickets.

It was the first time for him to do this kind of thing with painstaking effort. He used to invite people to eat in small roadside restaurants, and a few dishes and two bottles of beer were enough.

Guan Anlin came out of the shower, glanced at him before climbing into the bed, and saw him looking at the hotel, a little confused, asked him while getting into bed, "Why are you looking at the hotel?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "Tomorrow night, I have invited someone out for dinner, and I won't come back."

Sitting on the upper bunk, Guan Anlin suddenly had bad associations when he heard his words, and tried to stick his head down, "You and that Ning?"

Chen Yuncheng responded casually: "Ah."

Guan Anlin was a little nervous, "You two are still together? What are you doing at the hotel?"

Chen Yuncheng did not speak.

Guan Anlin said, "You want to have a room with him?"

Chen Yuncheng reached out and pulled up the quilt beside him, covering his whole head in it, not wanting to answer his question.

Guan Anlin was terrified: "Are you going to let him play with your ass?"

Chen Yuncheng reached out from under the quilt and casually grabbed a remote control placed by the bed, threw it forcefully towards the upper bunk, regardless of whether he could hit Guan Anlin, and cursed: "Die!"

Throughout the next day, Guan Anlin tried to prevent Chen Yuncheng from going on a date with Ning Junyan at night.

However, Chen Yuncheng didn't have the heart to talk to him at all, and kept thinking about what step he should take with Ning Junyan since they agreed to open a house.

His entangled emotions in the past have not completely disappeared, but compared to the previous period when he lived in Ning Junyan's house and had no job, he is now much calmer, and sometimes he even feels that he can look forward to his future life up.The sense of security he lacks is something that no one can give him, only he can give it to himself.

Today is Friday, there is not much business in the store in the afternoon, and the whole commercial market is deserted.

Chen Yuncheng squatted in front of the store, looking at his phone the whole time.

Guan Anlin took a bottle of Coke, walked up to him and squatted down, wanting to check his phone.

Chen Yuncheng immediately locked the screen.

Guan Anlin was very worried and asked him, "What are you looking at?"

Chen Yuncheng said, "Don't worry about it."

Guan Anlin whispered while drinking Coke, "Be careful of getting sick."

Chen Yuncheng suddenly said angrily: "You go whoring to be careful of getting sick!"

His voice was a little louder, and Wu Xiaozhu who was sitting in the store stared at them dumbfounded. After a while, the way she looked at Guan Anlin changed.

Guan Anlin was very upset, and kept ignoring him since then, until Chen Yuncheng was about to leave, and asked again: "Are you really not coming back?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "Leave me alone, lock the door and sleep at night."

Guan Anlin hesitated to speak, and finally watched Chen Yuncheng leave irritably.

Chen Yuncheng went out to take a taxi. Sitting in the taxi, he saw Guan Anlin send him a photo. It was a young girl in a high school uniform, and then sent him a line of words: "My sister."

He couldn't help smiling, and put the phone back without replying to Guan Anlin.

The restaurants and movie tickets for dinner in the evening were all booked by Chen Yuncheng, and they were chosen in a large shopping mall in the city center.

Even though he has lived in this city for so many years, Chen Yuncheng seldom comes to this kind of place, no matter entertainment consumption or shopping, this place is not suitable for him.

When he was waiting for Ning Junyan on the first floor of the shopping mall, he saw many young girls who were well-dressed, as if they were watching an idol drama, and they were out of tune with his world.

Then someone covered his eyes with his hands from behind, and Ning Junyan's voice rang in his ears, asking him, "Have you seen enough?"

Chen Yuncheng turned back, "Are you here?"

Ning Junyan's gaze was still looking at the girl in stockings and short skirt, and asked Chen Yuncheng, "What are you looking at?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "I didn't see anything, I have been waiting for you."

Ning Junyan said coldly: "Next time, change to another place."

I know today is a bit short, mainly because the day is longer and I am a little tired. I wanted to ask for leave today, so I will take a look.
