Living in a small county town, earning a million a year

Chapter 40 Call me Uncle, or I'll tell your dad.

"Hey!" Xu Mu turned to look at Wang Mengyan beside him and asked, "Mengyan, didn't you say you didn't understand feelings?"

"Brother Mu, I watch Douyin all the time, okay? I've seen these kinds of breakup posts before." Wang Mengyan said coquettishly, "And from a girl's perspective, a guy who gave her his virginity would definitely like her a lot, but if he suddenly doesn't like her anymore, she must like someone else."

"Or someone said a lot of things to her, trying to drive a wedge between you two."

"I just saw the chat history. This girl named Feifei often mentions her best friend or her best friend's boyfriend."

"It must be this best friend stirring up trouble behind the scenes."

"Hiss!" Xu Mu looked up at Wang Mengyan and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect your analysis to make so much sense!"

"That could very well be the case."

"Alright!" Xu Mu patted Tong Wu on the shoulder. "I've analyzed so much for you, and we still haven't ordered any food! Are you really going to let your brother go hungry?"

"Oh yes."

Tong Wu quickly scanned the QR code to order food.

"Alright, I was just kidding," Xu Mu said with a smile. "I already had Ruofei order it."

"Brother, what's your relationship with these two beauties?" Tong Wu finally came to his senses and asked Xu Mu.

"They're all my girlfriends."

"Huh?" Tong Wu was dumbfounded, looking at Xu Mu with eyes full of admiration. "Really? Bro, teach me! How do you manage to have two girls as your girlfriends at the same time without getting jealous!"

"Brother, please, teach me! I'll kneel down and listen!"

"Hahaha!" Xu Mu laughed and said, "Just kidding. I live in Yangjiashan Villa, and the property management arranged for a housekeeper."

"But you can also interpret it as a girlfriend!"

"Sigh! I'm so envious! Bro, you know what? I used to admire you so much because you always did things so casually, it seemed like nothing in the world could interest you!"

"No, Zhou Mengting caused me a lot of pain for many years! But since that incident, I've become much more open-minded."

"I'm not talking about relationships, I'm talking about other things!" Tong Wu looked at Xu Mu and said seriously, "It's just that whether it's about studies or life, you always casually argue with them!"

"Have you forgotten who I am?"

"I'm an orphan!" Xu Mu's smile faded as she looked at Tong Wu seriously. "My parents adopted me when I was five years old, so what do you think I, someone who was born with nothing, have to care about?"

"My parents gave me a new life. If there's anything I still care about, it's definitely my parents and my sister!"

"Now that I have the ability, my only thought is to give them a good life. That's my only wish! As for anything else? I still don't care about anything else."

"Yes!" Tong Wu pursed his lips and looked at Xu Mu, saying, "Sometimes I think, I wish I could be like you!"

"???"

"Dude, you can't just think about that! Your parents are alive and well, why are you fantasizing about being an orphan?"

Soon, the hot pot base and beef were served.

Xu Mu opened a few bottles of beer for Tong Wu, "Alright, stop worrying about it."

"You were the one who initiated the breakup, so let's not dwell on the past!"

"Painful memories will only make you more miserable. You have to look forward! Think about it, you've ordered an Ultra now, and you'll be picking it up in a month. Wouldn't it be better to drive that Ultra with the hole in it to the car club and pick up girls? Why do you have to stay trapped in this relationship?"

"Come on, drink!"

"drink wine!"

Tong Wu held up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"By the way, bro, there's a car club gathering on the 24th, do you want to join?"

"where?"

"In Shiliang Town."

"sure!"

Xu Mu agreed.

"Ding!"

"System has issued a random task: Help Tong Wu get over his heartbreak and start a new relationship!"

"Mission reward: One random blind box and 50 experience points!"

Xu Mu immediately seized on the loophole in the system task: "How does this thing determine whether someone has gotten over heartbreak? If Tong Wu can't forget his ex-girlfriend in three years, then I won't be able to complete this stupid task in three years, will I?"

"All you need to do is help Tong Wu start a new relationship."

The system explained.

"Why not just go get a 'meat foot massage'? They say that people who are heartbroken will feel pity when they hear a foot massage girl say that her father is dead, her mother is seriously ill, and she has a younger brother who is still in school, and they will want to save her from her predicament!"

"I think this method is acceptable!"

Xu Mu touched his chin; this was also a new relationship.

After all, given Tong Wu's personality, hearing the story of the foot massage girl, coupled with Tong Wu telling the foot massage girl about his recent breakup, was quite a shock.

Wouldn't their love naturally blossom then?

Besides, who says there's no love in foot massage parlors?
Is it okay to fall in love with every girl you meet?

Every man getting his feet washed wishes this moment could last forever, and that the foot-washing girl belongs to him.

Their possessiveness prevents them from defiled by other men!

Little did they know, their love affair had just ended in the previous private room.

I want this love to last longer.

There's only one solution then—add more time.

"..."

The system sensed Xu Mu's thoughts and left only a string of ellipses.

After drinking for a while, Tong Wu had already drunk six bottles of Budweiser.

Xu Mu also drank six bottles.

Just as Xu Mu was resting against Wang Mengyan's chest, she suddenly heard a sound coming from behind.

"Holy crap, you guys really have no idea how disgusting that guy I met the other day was!"

"They actually called me an ordinary woman and even insulted me by calling me a single dog! I'm so angry!"

"There were even people cursing me in the comments section, calling me a toad and saying I wanted to eat swan meat! How could my dad introduce such an idiot to me?"

Hearing the voice behind him, Xu Mu's slightly drunken mind immediately cleared up.

What the hell!

This topic seems familiar...
Wait... let me think!
I think I said those same words to Tang Mochen's daughter, Tang Ruobing, just a few days ago.

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Tang Ruobing was sitting right behind him?
But how dare she insult me?

Well, it seems the lesson she learned wasn't enough!

"Why would your dad introduce you to a guy like that? Is his family very rich? Or does your dad admire him?" The girl sitting opposite Tang Ruobing looked at Tang Ruobing and asked curiously, "Logically speaking, your dad's taste shouldn't be too bad, right?" "How would I know? My dad just said that this guy is promising at a young age and quite interesting."

"You want me to get to know you!"

Tang Ruobing angrily tore apart the tableware in front of her. "Young and promising my ass! His WeChat Moments are all about games, writing, or playing with turtles! I think he's just a deadbeat shut-in who daydreams all day long!"

"If you don't even take selfies, you must be an ugly jerk!"

"?" Upon hearing this, Xu Mu became unhappy!
She suddenly stood up, looked at Tang Ruobing, and cursed, "Tang Ruobing, you plain-hearted woman, who are you calling ugly?"

"Don't you know how to respect your elders at all? Your father and I are of the same generation, and you don't even call me 'uncle'! You keep calling me 'lower man'!"

"You ordinary woman, who gave you your confidence?!"

Tang Ruobing was startled by the sudden outburst of insults.

She quickly turned to look at Xu Mu.

Then I found a boy who was 1.8 meters tall standing behind me.

Wait a minute... he called himself an ordinary woman!

"Fine! You're Xu Mu?" Tang Ruobing also stood up, glaring at Xu Mu.

She was just looking for a place to vent her anger!
Unexpectedly, this guy walked right into the line of fire!
"Yes, call him uncle! My dear niece!"

"You big-headed devil! Don't even think about taking advantage of me!!"

"Hey, you little brat, you have no manners at all! I don't know how your dad raised you, I'm going to call him and tell him about you!"

As Xu Mu spoke, she took out her phone from her pocket, intending to call Tang Mochen.

"How dare you!" Tang Ruobing glared at Xu Mu with wide eyes.

Tang Mochen had repeatedly told him to communicate more with Xu Mu and build a good relationship with her.

If Xu Mu complains to Tang Mochen, Tang Mochen will definitely cut off her living expenses.

"Xu Mu, how can you be so childish? How old are you, still tattling on others?"

"Hey! How am I childish? Isn't it normal for me to call your dad? Besides, you don't even greet your uncle when you see him, isn't that rude?"

"Call me uncle! If you don't, I'm calling you right now!"

"You!!" Tang Ruobing clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. "Xu Mu, you shameless bastard!"

"Call uncle!"

"..."

"three!"

"two!"

“One~~~~” Xu Mu deliberately dragged out the last syllable of “one”.

"Uncle!" Tang Ruobing practically spat out the word "uncle" through gritted teeth, almost grinding her molars to powder. "Are you satisfied now?"

"Yes! My dear niece, Uncle is very satisfied!"

Who just insulted me?

"Apologize!"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you an ugly bastard!"

"That's more like it! Otherwise, I would have to pay out of my own pocket to take you to an eye hospital to get checked out. How could you go blind at such a young age? How could you say I'm ugly when such a handsome guy is standing right in front of you?"

"I think you're the real idiot!" Tang Ruobing glared at Xu Mu angrily. "You're really something!"

"So narcissistic, and yet he even praises himself!"

"Hehe! I'm telling the truth." Xu Mu looked at Wang Mengyan and Wang Ruofei and said, "Ruofei, Mengyan, am I handsome?"

"handsome."

"Brother Mu is the most handsome!"

Wang Ruofei and Wang Mengyan hugged each other like little fangirls, looking up at each other with faces full of admiration.

"..."

Tang Ruobing was completely dumbfounded!
What's going on with these two girls?

"Alright, alright, little girl, remember to greet me when you see me next time! I won't hold it against you today!"

"By the way, your table today is on my tab."

After speaking, Xu Mu sat back down in his seat.

"Hey, Ruobing, I think this guy you mentioned is actually quite handsome! He must be over 1.8 meters tall, right?"

Tang Ruobing's best friend sat opposite her, having been scrutinizing Xu Mu the whole time. "And he's so interesting to talk to! Don't you like him?"

Xu Mu has a face with distinct features, and although he wears glasses, his eyes are still very bright.

Especially those who keep a middle parting.

It looks very much like an old friend.

"Xiao Wan, what are you saying? How could I possibly like him? He's with two girls with him, sitting together with one on each side, he's obviously a scumbag! I hate scumbags the most!"

boom!
Xu Mu stood up again and gave Tang Ruobing a flick on the forehead. "Tang Ruobing, your uncle can hear you. Don't talk behind people's backs!"

"Besides, you don't even know me, how do you know I'm a jerk?"

"What I'm doing is charity, don't you understand? They were homeless, and it was you, Uncle, who took them in and gave them a home and love! How come it sounds so filthy in your mouth?"

"If you're lacking affection, your uncle can give you some elder's care! But you're not as pretty as Ruofei and Mengyan, so forget it, your uncle isn't interested!"

"what……!"

Tang Ruobing covered her head and looked at Xu Mu with a resentful gaze.

Dare to be angry but dare not speak.

"Ordinary man!"

Tang Ruobing was furious!
How can there be such a despicable person!

And how can a person be so shameless!

"Alright, Uncle's not going to talk to you anymore, Uncle's leaving!"

After saying that, Xu Mu got up and left with Tong Wu and the other two.

When it was time to pay the bill, I still paid for Tang Ruobing.

A meal won't cost much!
After all, she is Tang Mochen's daughter, so Xu Mu still has to take care of her.

However, the young lady's temper still needs to be tamed.

"Bingbing, this person is really interesting! Aren't you going to consider it?"

"He's handsome and has an interesting personality. Isn't he better than those rich second-generation guys who are pursuing you?"

"I would never even look at someone like him!" Tang Ruobing said angrily, rubbing her head. "I'm so angry! He even hit my head. Doesn't he know that hitting someone on the head can make them stupid?"
