Lovers suffer from depression [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 119 Crimson Phobia Chapter 2

But he knows that this is impossible, and the sociality of human beings will not be transferred by his will.

He wanted to buy Wen Ran a cup of coffee in return, however, he had to wait for the young woman to finish ordering before leaving.

The young woman had no intention of ordering, and after flipping through the menu with her fingers painted with bright red nail polish, she suddenly asked, "Who is he?"

Meng Miandong didn't know any information about the other party, so he shook his head and said, "I don't know who he is either."

The young woman smiled and said, "Go and ask for his business card."

Meng Miandong lowered her head and asked, "Why don't you ask for his business card if you want it yourself?"

The young woman stared at the ignorant Meng Miandong, who was blushing uncomfortably, and said, "Is it easy to get started if I go by myself if it doesn't look like I'm not reserved?"

Meng Miandong refused with a trembling voice, "I'm sorry, we don't have this service."

The young woman glanced at Meng Miandong, and found that even the tips of Meng Miandong's ears were red, she couldn't help but smiled and said, "You don't want to ask him for a business card because you have a crush on me, do you?"

"No, I'm..." Meng Miandong didn't want to reveal to strangers that she suffered from red-face phobia, and of course the young woman didn't really care about his answer.

She stood up from her seat, walked up to Wen Ran with twisted waist and hips, and asked coquettishly, "Can I sit opposite you?"

The young woman has a beautiful face and a curvy figure, which is very outstanding, but for Wen Ran, only Meng Miandong is different, and other people, whether they are male or female, beautiful or ugly, are all different from him. It doesn't matter at all.

So, he took one look at the young woman, and concentrated on drinking the hot orange juice.

The young woman didn't think her charm was inferior to a glass of hot orange juice, and thought that Wen Ran was pretending to make her more active, so she snatched the hot orange juice away, and took Wen Ran's used straw in one gulp, Sticking out the tip of his tongue, he took a sip.

——This is her usual trick to seduce men.

Wen Ran calmly said to Meng Miandong: "Please have another glass of hot orange juice."

Standing not far away, Meng Miandong was at a loss. Hearing this, he immediately went to the back kitchen and ordered another cup of hot orange juice. After a while, the hot orange juice came out.

He was about to deliver hot orange juice to Wen Ran, but was knocked over by the young woman who became angry from embarrassment.

Wen Ran didn't have time to block all the hot orange juice, and most of the hot orange juice spilled on Meng Miandong's body.

The store manager was entertaining the new guests while secretly observing the situation on Meng Miandong's side. Seeing this, he immediately walked up to Meng Miandong and said, "Miandong, you should go home first."

After finishing speaking, she turned to Wen Ran and said, "I'm sorry, guest, if your clothes are soiled, our store will compensate you for the dry cleaning fee."

Then, she looked at the young woman and said: "Please go out, we don't welcome your visit."

The young woman said angrily: "It's not my fault, it's his fault."

Apparently young women have never had a bad time picking up a conversation.

Wen Ran glanced at his finger, and said mercilessly: "I'm not interested in you, and of course I won't drink the hot orange juice you drank, and I won't give you a business card."

He saw that Meng Miandong had changed his uniform from the coffee shop, put on a mask, and walked out of the coffee shop. Instead of staying any longer, he put the cash on the table and left.

As soon as he walked out of the coffee shop, he asked System 001 in his mind: "Where is my car?"

System 001 replied: "Your car is in your underground parking garage."

He asked again: "Then where is my home?"

System 001 replied again: "Your home is ten kilometers away from here."

He originally wanted to drive Meng Miandong back, but he didn't expect the car to be ten kilometers away.

He had no choice but to quickly run to Meng Miandong's side, and asked with concern: "I'm Wen Ran, are you okay?"

Meng Miandong felt that his face turned red again the moment Wen Ran approached. At the same time, he felt very strange that the other party wanted to ask him if he was okay, why did he tell him his name on purpose?

In fact, Wen Ran also felt that his words were out of line, but he wanted Meng Miandong to know his name, so he had better remember it firmly.

Meng Miandong still didn't dare to look at Wen Ran, but said in a low voice: "Wen Ran, hello, my name is Meng Miandong, thank you for helping me just now, and blocking the hot orange juice for me, I'm fine."

Meng Miandong was obviously not good at all, although most of the hot orange juice was spilled on the uniform, but a lot of it seeped into the uniform.

Seeing Meng Miandong like this, Wen Ran managed to restrain his desire to hold Meng Miandong in his arms.

Meng Miandong was carrying his uniform in his hands and was going back to wash it. The house he rented was only a 10-minute walk from the coffee shop.

He thought that Wen Ran came to ask him if he was okay just out of kindness, but he didn't expect Wen Ran to walk beside him all the time.

Is he going the same way as Wen Ran?

Just thinking about this, he heard Wen Ran say: "Mian Dong, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow?" Meng Miandong repeated nervously and puzzled.

Wen Ran hurriedly explained: "I like the breakfast in your coffee shop very much. I will go to have breakfast again tomorrow, so I said see you tomorrow."

——I like you more and want to eat you up.

"So that's how it is." Meng Miandong couldn't help scolding herself in her heart for being too slow, she couldn't understand such a simple meaning, and she had to trouble the other party to explain.

He bowed to Wen Ran again: "Thank you, see you tomorrow."

Wen Ran watched Meng Miandong leave, but he never saw Meng Miandong's face from the beginning to the end.

Although the store manager asked Meng Miandong to go home today, he knew that when the business picked up during the lunch hour, the store manager would not be able to do it alone, so he took a bath at home, changed his clothes, and washed his uniform. After hanging up, he hurried out the door again.

Before he walked out of the corridor, he saw a person standing in front of him stepping on a pair of worn-out women's cotton slippers.

Since he is afraid to look at the faces of strangers, he uses the shoes he is wearing to identify strangers.

The owner of this pair of cotton slippers is his landlord, and he has not paid rent for half a month as a tenant.

Before the landlord opened his mouth, he apologized to the landlord: "I'm sorry, I will definitely pay the rent before the end of this month."

The landlord nodded and said, "If you can't pay the rent before the end of this month, I have to ask you to move out."

Now it is NO.13, there are still eighteen days before the end of the month, and fifteen days before the salary is paid. When the salary is paid, he will pay the rent first.

He thought so, and assured the landlord: "Okay, I understand, I will definitely pay the rent before the end of the month."

The city he lives in is the most economically developed city in the country. Every inch of land is expensive, and the rent is ridiculously expensive. After paying the rent from his part-time salary, there is not much left.

Fortunately, the coffee shop is free of charge, so he only needs to go to work every day.

The reason why he came to this city at the beginning was because there were more opportunities in this city, maybe he could survive by relying on comics.

But obviously he couldn't do it, how could someone as bad as him do it?

It's better to go back to his hometown, but if he goes back to his hometown, it's impossible for him to find a job without facing strangers. He can't rely on his parents to support him, can he?

He sighed lowly, and heard the landlord behind him say as expected: "What a weird person."

Yes, he is a weirdo.

There are many introverts, but like him, he has never seen a second.

It's early spring and it's still a little cold outside.

As he was walking, he realized that he had forgotten to put on his socks.

He really is a very bad person.

But instead of going back to put on his socks, he went straight to the coffee shop.

When he walked to the door of the coffee shop, he saw the mess inside the coffee shop, as if it had been robbed.

The store manager was tidying up. When he heard the noise, he raised his head and smiled when he saw him: "It's nothing, but I have to close for a few days. Miandong, you can go home. When you can go to work, I'll come back." inform you."

Meng Miandong asked, "What happened?"

The store manager replied: "The store was smashed up just now, and 1 yuan was lost after the smashing. It was the female customer who brought someone to smash it."

Meng Miandong knew rationally that it was the young woman who made trouble out of no reason, but emotionally, he felt that it was because he was not smooth enough in handling things and offended the other party.

"I'm sorry." He bowed to the store manager, "It would be nice if today's waiter was Xu Cu instead of me."

"It's not your fault, it's that female customer's fault." The shop manager said embarrassingly, "Miandong, this month's salary may be a few days late, but don't worry, I will definitely pay you. "

A few days late...he had to pay the rent within [-] days. The salary was originally paid after [-] days. A few days late meant that the salary might not be able to keep up with the rent he had promised the landlord to pay before the end of the month.

but……

The business in the coffee shop was already struggling to make ends meet, and now it has been ruined. He is really embarrassed to ask the store manager to pay wages on time.

He pretended to be nonchalant and said, "It's okay."

Then, he heard the store manager obviously relieved, and he could imagine the look on the store manager's face.

He was preoccupied, but asked again, "Did you call the police?"

"Didn't call the police." The store manager said helplessly, "I didn't expect that she knew the gangsters in this area. Even if the police did not cause personal injury, the police arrested them, and they would just lock them up for a few days, pay some money, and wait for them to be released. In order to get revenge, they will come and smash the store again, endlessly."

Meng Miandong didn't say anything, and went to help the store manager clean up.

After packing up, it was already past lunch time. The store manager invited Meng Miandong to a fast food restaurant not far away, and Meng Miandong bid farewell to the store manager and went back.

As he walked, he was thinking about how to solve the rent problem, but the mobile phone in his arms rang unexpectedly.

He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was his father who called. He picked up the phone and said, "Dad, what's the matter?"

Father Meng on the other end of the phone said dissatisfiedly, "Can't I call you if I have nothing to do?"

"No..." Father loves him very much, but Meng Miandong doesn't know how to communicate with his father, or rather he doesn't know how to communicate with everyone.

Meng's father was worried about Meng Miandong's life in the big city, and asked again: "Miandong, how are you doing?"

Meng Miandong said bravely, "I'm doing well."

In order to prove that he was doing well, he lied again: "A publishing house has taken a fancy to my comics, and I am busy discussing the plot with the editor. If everything goes well, I will start publishing comics in a month or two. The manga is serialized in the magazine."

"That's good, congratulations." Father Meng continued, "If you are willing to go home, your mother will find you a job in the street office. It is very stable, but sometimes you have to adjust the relationship with the neighbors."

Meng Miandong emphasized: "I am really doing well, Dad, please help me thank Mom, but I don't plan to go home for the time being."

After hanging up the phone, he clenched the phone tightly, feeling his heart beating "thumping".

He is not material for lying, and my father obviously does not believe the lie that his comics can be serialized in magazines.

Of course, he himself did not believe this lie.

How could it be possible, how could a useless person like him serialize comics in magazines.

He walked forward slowly, but suddenly he didn't know where he should go.

He has no job for the time being, and he will soon be unable to eat, because the coffee shop is going to be renovated.

He's running out of place to live because he can't pay the rent.

He can't go home either, because he can't meet his parents' expectations, such as working in the street office, such as getting married.

He might not even be able to offer Wen Ran a cup of coffee in return.

By the way, he also made an appointment with Wen Ran to meet tomorrow.

When he was depressed, a car sprang out from nowhere, passed in front of him, and left a sentence: "You are courting death."

Looks like he took the driveway?He also seems to have run a red light.

When he finally returned to the rental room, the sky suddenly darkened, followed by heavy rain.

Is this the only good thing that happened to him today?Before the heavy rain, he rushed to a place where he could hide from the rain.

No, he also met a good thing - he met Wen Ran, Wen Ran is a very gentle person, handsome, elegant, gentlemanly, wearing a heather gray suit and a pair of brogue leather shoes, a pair of very pleasing to the eye hand, and blocked the hot orange juice for him.

After entering the rental room, he immediately took off his mask and breathed heavily.

He usually wears a mask when he goes out, but he is still not used to breathing through the mask.

His rented room was very small and there was no sofa. After he took off his coat, he collapsed on the bed.

He quietly thought about what to do next, but he had no clue at all.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a narrow dining table one meter away. On the dining table were a notebook and a digital tablet. The notebook was a second-hand notebook, and the digital tablet was newly bought by him.

Of all his possessions, his laptop and tablet are the most valuable.

How about selling both the laptop and the tablet?That way he can afford the rent.

But what about after selling?What should he do?He won't even be able to draw cartoons.

But if he doesn't sell it, he will move out.

What about after moving out?What should he do?He won't even have a place to live.

After thinking about it, he still took pictures of the notebook and digital tablet with his mobile phone, and then posted them on the Internet.

He can only solve the rent problem first.

He kept refreshing the webpage, but no one cared about his laptop or digital tablet.

It was night soon, and he ordered a bowl of dried noodles to eat, which contained only the green vegetables and a drop of oil that the supermarket had bought one get one free yesterday.

But at this time, such a bowl of noodles made him very satisfied.

He drank the noodle soup, which could be regarded as clear soup with little water, in one gulp, and hurriedly refreshed the webpage, but no one cared about it.

He lay discouraged on the bed for a while, and after a while, he jumped up and drew with the digital board.

This may be the last time he draws manga.

He was drawing and drawing, but he was not satisfied at all. He continued to draw for five hours, but he did not draw a single satisfactory cartoon.

He has fully realized that he has no talent and must give up becoming a cartoonist, right?

After taking a shower, he lay back on the bed, looked at the thick night in the gaps in the curtains, and began to think about whether he should go home.

But after returning home, how should he live?You can't eat the old, right?

It's not that he hasn't looked for a job in his hometown, but there is no job suitable for him at all, but he can't do the work of the sub-district office.

His parents love him very much, as they love his older sister, and they have tried their best to give him and his older sister the best education since they were young, and let him and his older sister wear the best clothes.

His older sister is an outstanding person. She is a graduate student of a rare key university in the local area. It is impossible for him to do scientific research in the direction of English and American literature. The most suitable job is to stay in school to teach, but he has no way to face the students.

It would be great if he could do scientific research. Scientific research does not need to face too many strangers.

In fact, he originally planned to study science, but he failed in the postgraduate interview because of red-faced phobia, so he had to settle for second and read English and American literature.

But no matter how much his parents loved him, they couldn't understand his so-called red face phobia.

In their eyes, this disease should not exist at all, and it is a sign of his weakness.

That's why his mother found him a job in the street office.

He could imagine that his mother must have left a lot of relationships and spent a lot of money to find him a stable job.

Of course, it's not his mother's fault, red face phobia is indeed a sign of his weakness.

But he still hopes that his parents can accept a weak him.

However, this is not what he can ask his parents, right?It is he who should change.

He turned off the light in frustration and was about to go to bed, but he tossed and turned all night.

He watched helplessly as the sky brightened up bit by bit.

His body was already very tired, his eyelids were too heavy to open, but his mind was too lucid.

Sober enough to review everything he thought that night.

He suddenly remembered his promise with Wen Ran - see you tomorrow.

Wen Ran helped him yesterday, he couldn't miss the appointment.

He immediately got up from the bed, put on his clothes, and went to wash up.

After washing, he hurried out the door, but fell down as soon as he went out.

The knee hurts, it must be broken.

He really is a useless person, he can't even walk well.

He had no intention of going back, so he went to the coffee shop anyway.

The time Wen Ran came yesterday was [-]:[-] in the morning, and it was almost [-]:[-] now, so he had to hurry up.

However, it was already [-]:[-] by the time he reached the coffee shop.

Because of the red light, he wasted a lot of time.

The coffee shop was not open, and there was no one outside the coffee shop.

What Wen Ran said yesterday was a scene, right?Not really planning to visit the coffee shop again, after all, there are such terrible waiters in the coffee shop.

Or maybe he came late and Wen Ran has already left?

Just wait a little longer.

He thought so, standing in front of the coffee shop, touching his stomach, even though he didn't know where the road ahead was now, and he didn't know if he could wait until Wen Ran, but his stomach would still be hungry.

Why is this?

Yes, it's physiological.

He was thinking wildly, but he heard a rush of footsteps, and in the blink of an eye, a pair of brogue leather shoes caught his eyes, which were dark brown, but the pair of brogue leather shoes that Wen Ran wore yesterday were black.

So is it burning?

He wanted to raise his head to look, but he didn't look, his face was already slightly hot.

If he really raised his head to look, no matter whether the other person smelled the flame or not, his face would be as red as a boiled shrimp, right?

But he really wanted to know if it was Wen Ran.

Before he gathered the courage in his body, he heard a gentle voice say: "Hello, Mian Dong, I am Wen Ran."

Of course Wen Ran knows that Meng Miandong, who suffers from red-face phobia, uses shoes to identify people.

But yesterday, before he got home, it had been pouring rain, which drenched his black brogues a bit.

He had to switch to a pair of dark brown brogues.

I should have bought a dryer, and I should have bought another bunch of shoes of the same color and style.

He thought of this, and suddenly heard Meng Miandong whisper: "Hello, Wen Ran, I'm Meng Miandong."

His heart jumped with joy because of such an ordinary sentence.

What was in front of him was his Miandong, his Miandong was talking to him, although his Miandong blushed at a speed visible to the naked eye, even though his Miandong didn't dare to look at him, but still insisted on talking to him.

He pretended to look at the coffee shop calmly and said, "What happened?"

Meng Miandong replied: "Yesterday, that female customer found a gangster and smashed the shop."

Wen Ran was taken aback, he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen after he left.

He knows that Meng Miandong's money is tight, and he suffers from red-face phobia and it is difficult to find a job. So before the coffee shop reopens, what should Meng Miandong do to support his life?

He thought about how to naturally tell Meng Miandong that he was a cartoonist, and how to naturally invite Meng Miandong to write.

Before he could think of an excuse, he heard Meng Miandong say: "I wanted to treat you to coffee yesterday as a reward for helping me, but now the coffee shop is temporarily closed, may I invite you to another coffee shop? "

Wen Ran was overjoyed, but his tone tried to be calm: "Okay."

Meng Miandong touched his pocket. There was only enough money in his pocket to order two cups of coffee and a simple sandwich.

Therefore, after he brought Wen Ran to a nearby coffee shop, he only ordered a latte for himself, Wen Ran ordered black coffee, and he ordered an egg sandwich for Wen Ran.

He didn't even have money for a piece of bacon, or ham, for a sandwich.

He looked at the lines on the table, did not speak, and pressed his hands on his stomach, which was already aching from hunger.

When the latte was served, he heard Wen Ran ask: "Mian Dong, don't you want anything else? You'll be hungry if you only drink latte in the morning."

He shook his head and said, "I don't have the habit of eating breakfast."

When the words fell to the ground, his stomach betrayed him.

He was so embarrassed that he almost wanted to run away, but this is not right, it will make Wen Ran feel baffled, right?
