My Nemesis Has Finally Gone Bankrupt

Ji Ran held the steering wheel and listened to the ringtone of the mobile phone.

At seven o'clock in the evening, there was a traffic jam in the urban area. He waited twice for the red light but failed.

The phone rang, he glanced at it, and picked it up.

"How did you leave?" Qin Man asked.

"I am busy."

Hearing that his tone was wrong, Qin Man said, "Where are you, I'll go find you."

Ji Ran took a deep breath without showing any signs.

He hasn't seen the document, and the matter hasn't been clarified yet, so he can't draw any conclusions right now.

"No need." The indicator light turned green, Ji Ran said, "Drive, hang up."

Ji Ran drove extremely slowly this time, maintaining a forty-mile pace and moving slowly on the street.

In order to hide from Chen An, Cheng Peng recently lived in a house near the company, Ji Ran parked the car in the parking lot and went straight upstairs.

"Here we come." Cheng Peng opened the door and looked him up and down, "Where did you come from? It's been so long."

"Traffic jam." Ji Ran said concisely.

There are two documents on the glass table in the living room.

"These are the ones I can confirm at present." Cheng Peng said, "There must be more that haven't been found out. Take a look."

Ji Ran sat on the sofa and casually flipped through two pages.

Cheng Peng was looking at him from the opposite side. Cheng Peng was a little surprised to see his calm face.

After 10 minutes, Ji Ran closed the file.

Then ask the person in front of you: "Is there any water? I'm thirsty."

Cheng Peng said: "Yes, what do you want to drink?"

"For nothing." Ji Ran paused, then asked again, "Is there any wine?"

"Yes, but only beer." Cheng Peng said empathetically, "If you want to drink red wine, I'll have someone bring it from the wine cellar."

"Just beer."

A few minutes later, there was the sound of beer being opened in the living room.

Ji Ran squeezed the can of beer, leaned back, crossed his legs, and his posture was casual, as if he had returned to the way he was a few months ago.

"Do you have any cigarettes?" He asked again after taking two sips.

"Didn't you say you want to quit smoking?" Cheng Peng said.

"Forget it."

Mentioning it makes him feel like an idiot.

Cheng Peng handed him a cigarette, and Ji Ran stooped to hold it in his mouth, lit it up, and took a sip happily.

The long-lost taste, because he hasn't touched it for a long time, he even feels a little choked.

Cheng Peng looked at him silently, and asked after a while, "What are you going to do?"

Ji Ran exhaled a puff of smoke: "I don't know."

He really didn't know.

"You look very calm." Cheng Peng praised, "You are right, you are indeed better than me in this regard."

Ji Ran remained silent, there was nothing to be proud of in this kind of crap.

To be honest, after knowing this, he was not surprised, but felt inexplicably relieved.

After all, he never thought that Qin Man would fall in love with him from the beginning.

"Why do you think he pretended to be bankrupt?" Cheng Peng lit another and asked.

Why else.Ji Ran thought coldly.

I want to see him give him money like a fool, and like him like a fool.

Keep him in the dark the whole time, and wait until the end to give him the fatal blow.

"But I don't think it's necessary for him to spend so much trouble." Cheng Peng could see what he was thinking, "Do you think it will be..."

"90.00% nine and one percent, which side do you want me to choose?" Ji Ran interrupted him, laughing self-deprecatingly.

The love affair between him and Qin Man was just a game.

Betting that Qin Man didn't lie to him, and betting that he would be lucky, really made such a proud man bow his head to him.

From the very beginning, he knew that his odds of winning were too small. Before, Ji Ran would never bet on it.

But after getting along for a few months, he realized that his chips had been thrown on the gaming table long ago, and there was nothing left.The bet is non-refundable, so he can only open his mouth to gamble.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is something about him that is attractive.

He picks on Qin Man every day, and when they meet, they are either sneering or sarcastic. They have been incompatible for so many years... Unless Qin Man is a masochist.

"Then what if he really likes you." Cheng Peng thought for a while, "Or is he a Stockholm syndrome patient?"

"Come on, if you don't know how to comfort others, just keep your mouth shut and drink with me." Ji Ran clinked glasses with him, "I'm really fine."

"I'm ready, don't worry about me."

After finishing a glass of wine, Ji Ran's phone rang again.

He glanced at the caller ID, hung up and turned off the phone.

Then he raised his wine glass and touched Cheng Peng's again: "Do you have any more rooms?"

"Yes, drink at ease."

Ji Ran's alcohol capacity is actually not good, not even Yue Wenwen can drink.

However, his technique of rolling dice and punching punches is excellent, and he can't drink much alcohol after a game. After careful calculation, he is really not often drunk.

When he opened the sixth can of beer, Cheng Peng couldn't help reaching out to stop him: "Don't drink it."

"fine."

Ji Ran took a breath.

His cheeks have been dyed pink, and his lips are also full of water.

After drinking half a glass, he suddenly remembered something: "Is my phone turned off?"

He fumbled around but couldn't find his phone.Cheng Peng hurriedly said: "It's closed, it was closed just now."

"you sure?"

"Sure." Cheng Peng said helplessly.

Ji Ran said oh, don't worry.

If he didn't turn off the phone, he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself, so he called Qin Man when he was drunk.

Then ask him what he wants to do and whether he is playing tricks on him.

Like a hysterical clown.

To be honest, he wanted to ask now.

Not asking why he lied to himself.

I just want to ask him if there are one or two sentences in the beautiful words he said before that are true.

Cheng Peng wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start.

In fact, from his point of view, Ji Ran is very calm now, apart from being a little drunk on his face, there is almost no other gaffe.

Fortunately, Cheng Peng didn't have much wine in his refrigerator.

After Ji Ran drank the wine, he didn't play crazy, and didn't ask him to buy a few more bottles. He just said that he was tired and wanted to go back to his room to rest.

"Stand firm?" Cheng Peng stood up.

Ji Ran tried it.

Then he laughed: "Maybe I need to help."

I can still laugh, it should be really nothing.Cheng Peng helped him up, helped him into the guest room, adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner, and covered him with two more quilts before turning around and leaving the room.

Looking at the empty cans all over the floor, Cheng Peng sighed.

He didn't plan to pack his things, he thought about waiting for the cleaning aunt to come tomorrow.Just as he was about to go back to the room, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a mobile phone on the sofa, which belonged to Ji Ran.

Afraid of falling into the crack of the sofa, he picked it up, and just put it on the table, the ringing of the incoming call rang through the living room.

Ji Ran turned off the phone early, and it was his cell phone that rang.

He glanced at the unfamiliar phone number, turned and walked out of the balcony.

"Which one?"

"Excuse me, it's me." Qin Man sat on the sofa, staring at the black TV screen, "Do you know where Ji Ran is?"

"Is there anything wrong with him?"

"He's with you?" Qin Man stood up, picked up the coat hanging on the sofa, and said decisively, "I'll pick him up now."

"No need to come here." Cheng Peng looked at the night scene and said, "He probably doesn't really want to see you now."

Qin Man paused, and the hand holding his clothes hangs down by his side: "What do you mean?"

Cheng Peng answered irrelevantly: "Congratulations in advance, those pieces of land in Wangxing should be able to sell for a good price within the next two years."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

After a long time, Qin Man asked, "Where are you now?"

"If you can't get an answer, don't keep asking." Cheng Peng lit a cigarette, "Qin Man. I know you had conflicts with Ji Ran when they were in school. If you don't accept him, there are many ways to solve it. Ji Ran can do it alone." Bo, I can't handle you, you really don't need to use such a time-consuming and laborious method."

"I don't." Qin Man rubbed the center of his brows, forcing himself to calm down, "You said it too, I don't need it... Is he by your side now?"

He had been calling Ji Ran just now but no one answered, thinking that Gu Cheng or someone else had done something, he was very anxious.

"exist."

"I'm going to take him home."

"No, it seems that you don't need to worry about his affairs anymore." Cheng Peng said lightly, "You still have to figure out how to explain it to him, so that it won't be too ugly when you break up."

Qin Man's tone was even colder: "We will not break up."

Cheng Peng laughed, meaning unclear: "Is there anything else?"

"……What is he doing?"

"sleep."

The wind outside the balcony was too strong, and Cheng Peng felt a little cold, so he turned and went back to the living room.Unexpectedly, several empty cans were bumped into on the road, making a loud clang.

The voice was heard by Qin Man, and he asked, "Has he been drinking?"

"I drank two glasses because I was bored."

Judging from the sound, I'm afraid it's not the amount of two or three cups.

Qin Man was silent: "Are you drunk?"

Cheng Peng frowned, and couldn't help asking: "How much he drank, does it have anything to do with you whether he's drunk or not?"

Qin Man grew up so old, almost no one spoke to him in this tone, if it was someone else's other business, he might have hung up the phone long ago.

He looked at the empty living room, threw his coat back on the sofa, and sat back down again: "...he gets drunk easily, warm him some milk and don't let him touch the water. He didn't eat much for dinner, he drank almost on an empty stomach , you put stomach medicine and water on his bedside, in case he wakes up in the middle of the night, it will be an emergency."

After finishing speaking, he paused, "Thank you."

"...He is my friend. I don't need your thanks for helping him." Cheng Peng said after a moment of silence.

"Troublesome." Qin Man repeated.

Cheng Peng was silent for a long time, so long that Qin Man thought he had hung up the phone.

"Ji Ran was poisoned when he was a child, do you know that?"

Qin Man was startled, and gripped the phone a little harder.

"After his mother died, the nanny who was closest to him gave him medicine, and he had to wash his stomach many times before washing it clean."

Cheng Peng said slowly, "The father who has the deepest blood relationship with him ignored him, and the teacher who had the most guiding role in his growth turned a blind eye to him. Even Cheng Peng and I finally got to know him after many years of contact. today's relationship."

"But because of those things, his sense of security is almost zero."

"So he has very few friends, and he has drawn a clear line with his relatives. But such a person is willing to fall in love with someone he has hated since childhood..."

Speaking of this, Cheng Peng sighed inaudibly.

"...He is real, trying very hard to believe you."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Man sat on the sofa without moving for a long time.

It wasn't until he felt pain in the palm of his hand that he came back to his senses a little bit. When he looked down, he found a red mark on the palm of his hand that had been pressed by his nails.

He couldn't help it, and called Ji Ran again.

The female voice was cold and filled his ears like a basin of cold water.

He called Liu Chen and asked him to check the house under Cheng Peng's name.It didn't take long for a reply.

The phone was running out of battery, so he couldn't take it out, so Qin Man got up and went to the study, opened the drawer casually, looking for a pen and paper to write down the address.

But I saw a piece of printing paper in the drawer, with the words "budget" written on the top of the paper.

Office land is 200 million for three years.

200 for decoration.

The company uses four cars totaling 200 million.

The salary of employees is 400 million (tentatively to be changed).

……

Although it wasn't clearly written on it, Qin Man knew exactly what it was.Many of the figures are inaccurate, and it can be seen that the person who compiled this form did not understand this aspect of things.

Ji Ran has no interest in starting a company, so this form...is made for someone else.

Who this other person is is self-evident.

Further down, is a car sale contract.Qin Man hurriedly read a few lines, only to feel his chest throbbing and throbbing as if being grabbed by someone.

Cheng Peng is right, Ji Ran is really trying to believe him.

I also worked very hard...to be nice to him.

This feeling is frank and warm, unreserved, pure to the extreme.

Qin Man grasped the hot contract, his thoughts were confused, and for the first time in his life, he was confused and at a loss what to do.
