Who would have thought that Xu Rans face turned red and he awkwardly said: "I did have this idea..."
"After finishing a meal: "Sister, I dont want to die now, you mustnt tell anyone about this!"
If this suicide thing gets out, it will definitely be gossiped about by those neighbors.
Lin Qingyao smiled lightly and said, "To be honest with you, I didnt go down myself either. I also wanted to jump off the cliff, but who knew I got stuck in a tree? Luckily, I didnt die from the fall. Little brother, dont mention what happened here today."
"Sister! You... how..." Xuran didnt expect that this seemingly optimistic sister would also think of taking her own life.
Lin Qingyao furrowed her brow, seemingly a bit wounded, and said: "I just got divorced today... dont mention this matter again." Lin Qingyao could tell that Xuran was a kind-hearted and passionate person, so if she told him like this, he would definitely keep the encounter on the mountain to himself.
As for that hurt... Although she kept telling herself in her heart, dont mind it, but... these five years of time, even raising a dog is emotional, let alone a person?
Not to mention that Zhao Zhang had also sworn an oath of loyalty to himself back then? She had also firmly believed that the two would grow old together.
Xu Rans face changed upon hearing Lin Qingyao say this, and she thought that this older sister had it even worse than herself! At an age close to middle age, getting a divorce would be far more painful than not being able to attend university.
Suddenly, a wave of affection surged in my heart. Why not pity? Looking at Lin Qingyaos current fat and big sister appearance, can you feel pitiful?
Then Xu Ran patted his own chest: "Sister, rest assured! I wont tell anyone!"
Lin Qingyao smiled slightly, and at this time they were about to exit the highway. Lin Qingyao turned the steering wheel and made a turn, entering Chuan City.
"Xu Ran, little brother, where are you going? Ill send you there." After checking the fuel gauge, Lin Qingyao thought to herself that the cars gas was running low, but since it was raining outside, how could she let this little brother who had saved her get off in the rain?
Xu Ran was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said: "I have no home, I dont know where to go, sister, wherever its convenient to park, just drop me off there."
Lin Qingyao listened to the tone of Xu Rans voice, which was full of confusion and emotion, and she also felt a sense of sympathy. She too didnt know where to go. So she also sighed: "I dont know where to go either."
Theres barely over a hundred yuan on me, and even if I find the cheapest inn, I wont be able to stay for long. What about food?
Lin Qingyao looked at her own car, hesitated for a moment, and finally made a call to Bao Tong.
"Qingyao?" A crisp female voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lin Qingyao didnt know how to start, hesitated for a moment before saying: "Bao Tong, I want to tell you something. Your brother-in-law is organizing the garage, and your car..."
The woman opposite her burst out laughing: "Qingyao, I kept that car just as a memento. If its inconvenient for you to keep it, then sell it as scrap metal!"
Lin Qingyao let out a sigh.
Qingyao, is it that old woman from the Zhao family bullying you again? I seem to hear that you dont sound very happy.
Lin Qingyao smiled: "Nothing, I just missed you."
"Qingyao, I miss you too..." Bao Tongs voice suddenly dropped, saying somewhat dejectedly.
Two people couldnt help but think of the days when they were in the orphanage, at that time they were poor, even meals had to be saved, but at that time they were the happiest.
"Bao Tong, I still have something on hand, lets not talk about it for now. The money from selling the car, Ill give it to you later." Lin Qingyao said hastily.
"Look at what youre saying, that car is already considered a gift to you. Does anything I, Bao Tong, give out ever get taken back?"
Lin Qingyao smiled and hung up the phone, but her face suddenly fell. She was afraid that if she continued to talk, Bao Tong would notice something, and she was also afraid that she couldnt bear it, so she told Bao Tong about her own bitterness...
Actually, if she had asked Bao Teng to lend her money, 100,000 or 180,000 yuan would have been borrowable, but... She doesnt want Bao Teng to know about this matter now, and she doesnt want to worry Bao Teng for nothing.
Lin Qingyao took a deep breath and then said to Xu Ran, "Xu Ran, Im going to buy a car in a while. If you really have nowhere to go, come with me first, and after selling the car, Ill treat you to dinner."
There arent many kind-hearted people these days, consider it a repayment.
Xu Rans first reaction was to refuse, but then he remembered that the little money he had on him was all spent on buying rope. Now his stomach was growling with hunger, and even if he went home, he would still starve to death. So he nodded his head with a red face.
A second-hand antique car was sold for eight thousand yuan, and with this eight thousand yuan, Lin Qingyao finally felt a little more at ease, and before she found a job, she shouldnt be starving to death.
Fortunately, the rain stopped after selling the car.
Lin Qingyao brought Xu Ran to a small roadside stall, in the old streets of Chengdu, where ancient trees with lush branches formed a natural green canopy, under which many vendors set up their stalls.
Although there are still over 8,000 yuan left, Lin Qingyao still has to be frugal with her spending. In this era of soaring prices, shes afraid that even half a years rent wont be enough.
"How much are the dumplings?" Lin Qingyao asked as she sat down beside a temporarily set up table.
The stall owner had a steaming hot wok in front of him, and was currently scooping out dumplings. Without even lifting his head, he replied: "Five yuan per bowl."
"Bring two bowls of wontons." Lin Qingyao said.
At this time, Xu Ran, who was sitting opposite Lin Qingyao, spoke out loudly: "Boss, just a bowl of wontons, and another serving of noodles!" A bowl of wontons only had a few pieces, at the same price, eating noodles would be enough to fill him up.
Lin Qingyao didnt think much of it and just thought that Xu Ran liked eating noodles.
The table was very dirty, with thick oil stains on it, but this did not affect the two people who were already starving. Finally, a bowl of wontons came down, and Lin Qingyao only ate one-fifth full, but she stopped and didnt want another bowl.
Xiao Kou was sipping on a slightly hot wonton soup, which was somewhat salty, with dried shrimp and purple seaweed inside. It didnt taste good, but it wasnt difficult to drink either.
"Lao Yao, I asked you to find me a house, have you found one? My rental period is almost up." The stall owner, a thin and dry uncle, looked up and wiped the sweat off his face, asking a customer.
"This old Yao person, with a bitter face, said: Now where can you find cheap housing? Youre not making things difficult for me, are you? Theres only that house in Liu Hutong left, the rent is 500 yuan per month, will you take it?"
The stall owners face turned black when he heard Old Yao say that: "That house is given to me for free! I wont even live there! Arent you harming me? Thats a haunted house!"
