Prohibition of losing contact

Zhou Qingbai finally went to Shanghai.

Although he knows that the result of this trip is likely to be brainwashed by MLM, but he still feels that if he misses the suspected opportunity of "20 yuan to buy a house" because of timidity, he may have to regret his dreams in his future life.

Pei You has always supported his decision unconditionally, but he has always told him that if there is any suspicious situation, he must tell him as soon as possible.

In fact, Zhou Qingbai also felt guilty in his heart, so he rejected the other party's invitation to "look at the house", and only made an appointment for the first meeting in a cafe next to the Oriental Pearl Tower.

In the downtown area, popular scenic spots, and crowds of people, Zhou Qingbai thought, even if the other party is really a pyramid scheme, there should be no way to get him away.

Ten thousand thoughts flashed through his mind, from self-rescue to Star Wars, and when he landed in Shanghai, the small theater in his mind had already played out that aliens invaded the earth.

Next to the Oriental Pearl Tower, there is no distinction between working days and rest days. Tourists are everywhere whenever they come. Zhou Qingbai politely declined a young man who solicited customers to stand in line, followed the navigation around the road, and found his destination after going round and round.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were a lot of people scattered in the coffee shop. Zhou Qingbai put away his mobile phone, subconsciously adjusted the collar of his windbreaker, and opened the door to enter the shop.

The welcome bell at the door of the store rang crisply, and the clerk behind the bar subconsciously put on a polite and perfect smile and asked him what he wanted to drink.

"Don't be in a hurry to order." Zhou Qingbai said, "I'll wait for someone, and we'll order together when we arrive."

The clerk blinked when he heard the words, as if observing him for a while, and then asked, "Excuse me, are you waiting for a young lady?"

"Yes." Zhou Qingbai said unexpectedly, "How do you know?"

"She has already arrived first." The clerk took off the post-it note with Zhou Qingbai's age characteristics stuck on the cash register, then leaned slightly from the bar counter, and gestured towards the semi-open booth deep in the coffee shop: " She's waiting for you there."

Zhou Qingbai looked in the direction of the clerk's finger, and saw a very young girl sitting on the target booth.She had long hair shawl and was wearing a white dress. She was sitting directly facing the store door. Seeing Zhou Qingbai looking towards him, she raised her hand and greeted him with a smile.

There was already a drink in front of the girl, so Zhou Qingbai just ordered a dessert and walked over to meet her gaze.

"Hello, first time meeting." Zhou Qingbai always pretended to be a dog in front of outsiders. He stood at the table opposite the girl, smiled and stretched out his hand to shake her.

"My name is Zhou Qingbai."

"My name is Wu Lili." She seemed to ignore the first half of Zhou Qingbai's greeting, and said with a smile, "Please come all this way, it's really inconvenient for me, so I can't go to Beijing to have an interview with you."

"It's nothing, it should be." Zhou Qingbai put on a windbreaker and took a seat opposite the girl, and said casually: "It's about business, it's not short of the travel expenses."

"That's good, I'll cut to the chase." Wu Lili said as she picked up a thick file bag from her side, unwrapped the seal with one hand, took out a thick stack of real estate documents inside, and spread them on the table one by one.

Zhou Qingbai glanced at it, and was surprised to find that all the documents she took were originals.

The MLM organization obviously couldn't make the scam so real, Zhou Qingbai glanced at Wu Lili unexpectedly, reached out and flipped through the documents to confirm the authenticity.

Wu Lili waited patiently for him to finish reading all of them, then took a sip of sparkling water, and said, "This house belongs to my grandfather, and we have also hired professional appraisers to evaluate the price recently - according to the price they gave The purchase price, the total price of this house is 1000 to 20 million."

Sure enough, Zhou Qingbai thought, he knew there would be no pie in the sky.

But sitting on the ground and raising the price is better than taking him to a black coal mine to dig coal, so Zhou Qingbai didn't have any gaps in his heart, only a sense of plainness as expected.

But the full payment of 200 million yuan was still not within Zhou Qingbai's budget. He was about to decline the other party politely, but Wu Lili interrupted him as if predicting his reaction.

"However, you have already paid 200 million of it." Wu Lili said, "So the balance is only 20."

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

Zhou Qingbai was stunned for two seconds, rarely maintaining his pretentious virtue in front of outsiders, and asked blankly, "When did you pay?"

"Here." Wu Lili smiled, patted her chest, and signaled: "I have already given it."

"No, no, no." Zhou Qingbai subconsciously leaned back, laughed twice, and said, "That's not okay, girl, I already have a family."

Wu Lili burst into laughter when she heard the words, and she didn't explain anything, she just reached out and fished beside the table, and took out something from under the table.

It wasn't until this moment that Zhou Qingbai discovered that Wu Lili's hand that had been placed under the table was actually a pair of crutches.

She stood up on crutches, and moved out from behind the table under Zhou Qingbai's dazed gaze.Zhou Qingbai got up subconsciously and helped her, only then did he suddenly realize that the part of her right leg below the thigh had disappeared without a trace, only the skirt fell empty in mid-air, vaguely outlining the shape of a broken limb .

Zhou Qingbai said at a loss: "This..."

"Mr. Zhou, you really don't remember me." Wu Lili smiled, she stretched out her hand to cover most of her face, only showing a pair of eyes, and blinked at Zhou Qingbai: "What about this?"

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

The restricted perspective suddenly became familiar, Zhou Qingbai squinted his eyes, and suddenly remembered where the familiar feeling came from.

"You, you are the one, that township elementary school—"

"Yes!" Wu Lili said with a smile on her face, "It's me, you finally remembered."

Zhou Qingbai is not face-blind, but the last time he saw Wu Lili was in the ruins of the ruins. She was covered in blood, her face was covered in dust, and she couldn't even see her long or short hair clearly, let alone know her. What does it look like.

When they were in the southern province, Zhou Qingbai and the others followed the arrangement to rescue the wounded in a local township primary school that had just finished the rescue mission.While waiting for the transfer, Zhou Qingbai suddenly heard a very light knocking sound from nearby, like a stone hitting a concrete slab, and the sound was muffled.

At that time, his first reaction was that there were still people inside who hadn't been rescued, but the sound lasted very short, only two or three times. When the rescue team returned to follow the sound and searched again, the sound had disappeared and no one responded. .

The security guards and teachers of the school had already counted them, saying that there were quite a few wounded among the wounded rescued. No one entered the campus that day except teachers and students. It stands to reason that there should be no one inside, so the rescue team The team leader only comforted Zhou Qingbai, saying that his nerves were tense, and that he might become an enemy. This is also common in rescue, so don't worry about it.

But Zhou Qingbai was very stubborn. He was convinced that he must have heard the call for help, so he conducted a second search for the target location.

Fortunately, the people in the rescue team were also serious. Although they thought the probability was not high, they followed him to find it.They dug all afternoon, from the corner of the school to the backyard, until finally, Zhou Qingbai pulled Wu Lili out from the ruins under the brick building.

At that time, she was covered in blood and was unconscious. She had no identity certificate on her body and could not contact her family members.So after the rescue team transferred their wounded to the nearest hospital, Zhou Qingbai left his contact information for the nurse, saying that he could contact him if he could not find his family members and had difficulties with medical expenses.

But fortunately, on the third day, the nurse station called him, saying that the girl's family members had come to pick her up and paid off the medical bills.So Zhou Qingbai didn't care anymore, and simply put this matter behind him.

"Actually, I went there to collect scenery at that time." Wu Lili smiled slightly and said, "I saw that the wild land in the backyard of the school was growing very well, so I wanted to take two photos, so I went in through the back door - no one was there at the time. Seeing me, if you didn't insist on digging, I might not be able to hold on until they call in the police dogs."

"That's why you saved me." Wu Lili said, "The 200 million yuan is for my life."

Seeing the person he had personally rescued again, Zhou Qingbai felt a little complicated. He looked down at Wu Lili's empty skirt, and was rarely able to speak, so he could only dryly express a little comfort.

"Well, don't be sad..." Zhou Qingbai said: "Anyone who hears it will save you, but it happened to be me at the time."

"It's okay, I think it's good to be able to save my life." Wu Lili looked at it openly: "But anyway, the one who heard me begging for help was you who pulled me out, and you are the one who just needs a house now—this It's just right."

Zhou Qingbai didn't expect such a coincidence to exist in the world, but he thought he just did what he should have done at the time, and it wasn't worth such a big gift, so he smiled and shook his head.

"I appreciate your kindness, but it's not due to me alone." Zhou Qingbai said: "Besides, didn't you say that this is my grandfather's house, and the old man must keep things for him."

"Actually, it was my grandfather who asked me to contact you." Wu Lili said, "When he went to pick me up from the hospital, he learned what you explained from the nurse. From then on, he told me that if you have the opportunity, you must repay me. you."

Wu Lili smiled and added: "You don't have to feel embarrassed about taking the money—to be honest, my grandfather and I are going to go abroad soon, and this house was supposed to be disposed of, but you happen to be here It's only when the time demands it."

"My parents went abroad for business when I was a child, and then they established a firm foothold, so they simply settled there." Wu Lili said: "They wanted to take me and my grandfather over there many years ago, but my grandfather didn't want to leave. The old house has never agreed."

The old man loved his family and was nostalgic for the old days. He would rather live with his granddaughter than live in a strange environment.

"It wasn't until my accident this time that he felt that people are more important than other illusory things." Wu Lili said: "My family is not short of money. When I had this house, I didn't expect to use it to make much money. The 20 is the price of buying the house that year, and the rest, my grandfather wants to give it to you as a gift, thank you for not only keeping his most beloved granddaughter, but also willing to pay for the medical expenses of a stranger."

"To be honest, I'm still a bit overwhelmed." After a while, Zhou Qingbai smiled helplessly and said, "This is simply a rotten chicken soup plot in Yilin magazine ten years ago. I didn't expect it to happen to me. body."

"Life is always more illogical than literary creation." Wu Lili said as she sat back on the sofa, took a sip of sparkling water, and said, "How about it? Do you think it's a good deal? If it's suitable, we can go through the formalities tomorrow."

"It's such a big pie, it's deceiving to say that you don't like it." Zhou Qingbai said: "But I still feel a little bit ashamed."

"Don't worry too much about it." Wu Lili: "Just take it as it is, this is a gift from God to kind people."

The author says:

This is the foreshadowing of the last recovered plot~ Speaking of which, when I wrote the part about the earthquake before, I also felt that it seemed a bit old-fashioned XD, but the part about the first kiss under the moon really existed from the beginning of the brain hole, so that I was very, very heartbroken and it was hard to give up.In addition, that plot has a very important foreshadowing and a link between the past and the future (including carrying Xiao Zhou Xiao Pei's feelings, paving the way for Xiao Zhou's coming out and the source of today's bar), so when I finalized the draft, I still wrote it according to my original idea. . [[But having said that, real life might be so old-fashioned sometimes...?After all, there is no notice orz before the accident. [Thank you for living in a dream, did you eat supper today, the waltz under the moonlight, the rabbit ink, and the fish food fed by Chunjichun, thank you very much~
