The fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose made Meng Lang feel a little restless...

You say kiss me, there are some beasts, but you say no kiss, the atmosphere is already heated up here.

Encountering a famous scene like this in a TV series, and meeting a woman like Lin Haitang.

How many men are there who are worse than animals?

What's more, my brother can kiss me, but I can't?

According to the normal development of urban romance dramas, maybe as soon as my mind is warmed up and we kiss each other, the relationship between the two parties will quickly heat up, and my sister-in-law will be around the corner?

However... the brother who chose to be a beast has told Meng Lang with his own experience that that bad old man Destiny can't be so kind as to give you benefits...

[Everything seems to have had the opposite effect? 】

A fleeting sentence in the book has already implicitly explained the consequences of being a beast.

It is possible that the other party thought that I was frivolous and got on the bus without buying a ticket. As a result, the goodwill accumulated before was quickly wiped out!

Gentleness is not necessarily a trap, but the trap must be gentle!

In the darkness, the two looked at each other for a short moment. Lin Haitang suddenly looked away and turned his head slightly.

"Can you...can you get up?"

Lin Haitang, who was pinned down, spoke softly.

"Huh? Oh! Sorry!" Meng Lang quickly stood up.

"Sister, what happened?"

At this time, Xiao Yu, who heard the noise in the house, came out suspiciously.

"Oh! It's okay. I dropped my chopsticks and accidentally hit the chair while picking them up."

Lin Haitang stood up pretending to be nonchalant and smoothed his messy hair.

Xiao Yu looked strangely at the location of the two people and the chair that had fallen on the ground, and imagined the scene of the accident.

"Did you drop your chopsticks and knock over the uncle's chair when you picked them up?"

"Poof!" Meng Lang couldn't help but break his guard.

At the same time, Lin Haitang's forced composure was broken, and her expression froze.

"I'm going to wash the dishes."

Meng Lang couldn't help laughing as he looked at the figure who turned around and hurried into the darkness.

If you don't feel guilty, what excuse can you make? Isn’t this the three hundred taels of silver that are missing here?

This guy... is pretty cute when he's nervous...

"Uncle, what's wrong with my sister?" Xiao Yu asked in a strange low voice.

Meng Lang thought for a while and said to her seriously.

"Xiaoyu, do you want to know the difference between growing up and maturing?"

"What's the difference?"

"The so-called growing up means that you know what happened, and the so-called maturity means that you deliberately say you don't know after you know it. Do you understand?"

"Well……"

"Why don't you leave?"

"There are no candles in my room, and... I'm afraid of the dark!"

Lin Haitang looked at Meng Lang who was lingering on the sofa and rolled his eyes.

She sat further away on the sofa and looked down at the materials in her hands by the candlelight. She looked like she didn't want to pay attention to him, as if she was making her position clear in this way.

Meng Lang looked at her little movements and felt funny in his heart. He picked up his phone and started scrolling.

Fortunately, his Juchang mobile phone still had 40% battery left, so he should be able to use it for three or four hours if he saved his money.

When I opened the scarves from the same city, they were all talking about the power outage.

"There's a power outage. There's nothing you can do. The moonlight is just right and the wind is gentle. Go to sleep!"

"Mom, I see stars!"

"I have been working overtime for seven consecutive days... Just when I felt like I was about to collapse, there was a sudden power outage! Ah~ It felt like a light piercing through the clouds in the dark sky, like first love..."

"It's an explosion~ I was just writing a novel at home and my computer suddenly went black without saving it! I have no love in life, Virgo has Mercury going retrograde recently (fuck, fuck)"

"Where's the power outage notice? Who ate it? Please spit it out!"

"I have no choice but to use my data to watch the news network..."

"..."

After brushing for a long time, Meng Lang frowned.

"Strange, this power outage seems to be quite extensive? And it's been almost an hour and it hasn't been restored yet."

For big cities like Suzhou, even power outages are usually notified in advance and usually do not last too long.

"There seem to be a lot of old community renovation projects recently. Maybe there is a problem with the transformer station somewhere." Lin Haitang replied casually.

Meng Lang's attention immediately shifted.

"I thought you didn't want to talk to me tonight?"

Lin Haitang rolled her eyes at him, "Childish."

Although it wasn't a compliment, Meng Lang could detect something slightly different from usual in the other person's tone and demeanor.

At least in the past, although the two of them were familiar with each other, Lin Haitang would never say "childish" if the level of intimacy was slightly higher.

These two words sounded to Meng Lang's ears as if he heard a system prompt indicating an increase in his favorability.

The rehearsal of life has indeed not been in vain!

"Hey! Let me ask a question!" Meng Lang approached Lin Haitang enthusiastically.

"You...what do you want to do!" Lin Haitang picked up a pillow to protect himself as if he was in a hurry.

Meng Lang was amused, "Why are you so nervous? What do I want to do? What did I do just now?"

"What are you doing" three times in a row, it took Lin Haitang a long time to figure out what the other person was talking about.

"Ahem! Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

Lin Haitang felt a little relieved when she saw that Meng Lang didn't do anything drastic, but she still hugged the pillow and said cautiously.

Of course she knew her own charm, and of course she saw the struggle in the other person's eyes just now. She was afraid that if she had spoken out a few seconds later, the situation tonight might have gotten out of control.

Lin Haitang tried hard not to think about the scene just now, nor to recall that moment when he wanted to give up resistance...

"How much is your monthly salary?"

Lin Haitang was stunned for a moment.

She thought Meng Lang was going to ask something, but it turned out that he was asking about salary?

"Uh... the basic salary is 10,000, plus the company's bonuses and benefits, it's about 30,000 per month. Why do you ask?" Lin Haitang didn't hide anything.

"Thirty...thirty thousand?" Meng Lang couldn't help but be speechless.

If he hadn't made a fortune by relying on his foresight, such a salary would be completely unimaginable to someone like him with a monthly salary of three thousand.

"With such a high salary, why do you still have to sing in bars and make yourself so tired?"

It turned out that was what he wanted to ask.

Lin Haitang's face dimmed slightly, he glanced at Meng Lang, and finally spoke slowly.

"My father's business failed and he owed a lot of money to others. If he wanted Xiaoyu's custody, he had to pay him a sum of money every month.

My mother’s pension, Xiaoyu’s education expenses, our living expenses… 30,000 yuan is not much for us. "

Meng Lang was silent when he heard this.

At the same time, I felt a trace of disgust towards the man I had never met.

Not only did he fail to fulfill his duties as a father, he actually used his custody rights to ask for money? What kind of scum are these?

After thinking about it, he finally couldn't help but speak.

“Although under normal circumstances, brothers and sisters are raised by their parents, and there is no relationship of rights and obligations between them.

However, under certain conditions, conditional support obligations arise between brothers and sisters.

Brothers and sisters who can afford it have the obligation to support minor brothers and sisters whose parents are unable to support them, and they can also fight for custody rights. "

Lin Haitang glanced at him and smiled lightly, but said nothing.

After Meng Lang said the words, he also realized that he was a little stupid.

Would Lin Haitang not know something that even an amateur like herself knew?

If she really wanted to seize custody, why couldn't she do anything about it? All he needs to do is be cruel and start a lawsuit with his father.

However, it is not difficult to win the lawsuit. The difficult thing is to convince yourself to cut off the last trace of blood and family ties with your own hands...

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

Sure enough, everything that can hurt you is the one you once loved.

"Sorry, I took it for granted."

"It doesn't matter, let's talk about you." Lin Haitang didn't want to mention it anymore, so he changed the topic.

"Although your side job is a bit special, do you want to keep doing insurance sales? Don't you have any career plans?"

career planning? Meng Lang laughed dumbly.

"Yes, I have a very long career plan. Maybe you can call it career transformation."

"What's the difference?" Lin Haitang naturally couldn't tell that this was a homophone.

“My career plan is like a tortoise, unhurried, steady, slow, leisurely, and calm until death.

Simply put, just stay alive! "

"Pfft!" Lin Haitang couldn't help laughing. "No one plans their career like this."

But she didn't know that Meng Lang was really feeling this.

Living a long time is a kind of victory for him... and many "Meng Lang"!

"Why not? You are blind. What ordinary people call career planning is nothing more than a short-term plan of ten or twenty years. I think the real career plan should be like that of Qin Shihuang!"

"Qin Shi Huang? What does this have to do with Qin Shi Huang?" Lin Haitang was confused.

"What do you think was the original driving force behind Qin Shihuang's desire to unify the six kingdoms and become one emperor through the ages?" Meng Lang asked.

Lin Haitang thought for a while, "It's the desire for power! The person who desires power the most is the person most likely to gain power!"

"Yeah! It's from Russell's "On Power". It's very insightful." Meng Lang smiled.

"Power is essentially human, financial and resources. The pursuit of power can also be seen as the pursuit of resources. So after Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, what did he do at the end of his life?"

Lin Haitang thought seriously for a moment, "Uh... pursuing immortality?"

"That's right!" Meng Lang laughed.

"You see, what this eternal emperor pursued at the end of his life was immortality.

If his life is regarded as a complete career plan, then do you think that unifying the six countries is just a five-year plan?

He has struggled for most of his life, and his goal is just to obtain the human, financial and other resources needed to pursue immortality.

His ultimate goal in life...is actually to stay alive!

So you said, to summarize his career plan in this life, should it be called career transformation? "

Lin Haitang couldn't help being amused, "How could you explain it like this?

Besides, you are obviously changing the concept. Even if Qin Shihuang pursues immortality in his later years, he is at least ambitious to unify the six countries, but he is not like the tortoise you mentioned, steady, slow and peaceful. "

Hearing this, Meng Lang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

You have never experienced the dramatic fluctuations in life span between 3 days and 21 years.

Otherwise, you will definitely understand what it means to be ordinary and plain...

He shook his head.

"Two thousand years ago, how is it the same as now?

You want to summon a large number of alchemists to make elixirs for you, and you want to send Xu Fu and three thousand boys and girls to find the fairy mountain. How can you do it without strong human and financial resources?

In the age of cold weapons, the fastest way to obtain these things... is to grab them!

If you rob the other six countries, doesn't it mean you have unified them?

Things are different now. There are no six major countries, but there are five major gangsters. Everyone has a bunch of nuclear weapons at home.

Anyone who wants to unify the earth by force must be prepared to end the game together if he is not careful.

So in this era, everyone has lost the opportunity to use force to forcibly integrate resources. There are only two ways to plunder resources, one is wealth and the other is technology!

These two are complementary to each other and can transform into each other.

Neither wealth nor technology can be obtained through violent means. It must be reasonable and legal, and competition must be within the existing framework. Isn’t the ideal state to be stable?

If Qin Shihuang traveled to the present, instead of thinking about how to unify the five gangsters, it would be more realistic to think about how to make money and how to improve the biotechnology level of the earth...

Well! Why do you look at me like that? "

As Meng Lang was talking, he suddenly noticed that Lin Haitang opposite him was looking at him more and more strangely.

“So…that’s why you want evergreen creatures?

The organization behind you... wants to live forever? "

Well……

Meng Lang was stunned.

I just use Qin Shihuang as an analogy to give you a chestnut!

You are so imaginative...

emm…

The next moment, Meng Lang fell into deep thought.

Um! Miss Haitang, you have such an open mind that you caught me off guard!

Immortality? You have to say you don’t want to, what short-lived ghost doesn’t want to? If you think about it, that’s exactly what I just thought about...

It was like an enlightenment in my mind, and I had a sense of enlightenment that I suddenly found the "organizational program"!

yes! Is there a conflict between curing illnesses and rescuing people and pursuing immortality?

There is no conflict at all!

Relatively speaking, curing diseases and saving people is only a five-year plan, while immortality is a thousand-year plan!

If he could live forever, wouldn't he be able to realize his dream of "waiting once in a thousand years"?

Not to mention an army of 100,000, I can go to the "end of the universe" single-handedly to show you!

Listen and see, the original intention of the Assassin's League was to protect mankind, the original intention of the Akatsuki organization was world peace, and the original intention of the Avengers was to save the universe. To put it bluntly, they are all awesome.

When it comes to my "All Things Gather Together", oh, the original intention of its establishment was to treat Alzheimer's disease?

If you tell me, you will probably laugh your enemies to death!

The price should drop or not!

Meng Lang had an "I understand" expression on his face, which made Lin Haitang confused.

It seems that I just used a question, not a statement.

Is this question...so thought-provoking?

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Haitang waved his hand in front of Meng Lang's eyes.

"Ah? Oh! It's okay. By the way, what did you ask me just now?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't tell me. After all, I don't really care about secrets like this..."

"No! If you care, please ask again!" Meng Lang looked determined.

"Uh... I'm asking about the purpose of your organization..."

"That's right! The original intention of our organization was to 'resist death'!"

Lin Haitang: "..."
