Making a living in Dongguan, her fiery red lips offer me tenderness.

Tan Yan returned to the second floor, feeling somewhat exhausted. He collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep without even taking a shower.

First floor,

Aunt Tan asked, "Old Tan, shouldn't we tell Xiao Yang? Even though Yan'er says she's ignoring him for now, she's actually thinking about him."

"Damn it, he's so poor he's begging for food, and he's still looking for women."

"Old Tan, if Yan'er leaves Xiao Yang, she will definitely be heartbroken. Now that she's pregnant, we as parents should try to reconcile them."

"He was having affairs with other women before he met Yan'er. We have to consider the bigger picture."

"At least this kid hasn't committed domestic violence, and he's polite to us, so we should give him a chance."

"No wonder he kept asking us to understand when we were drinking yesterday, so that's what happened."

"Wife, let's listen to Yan'er for now. Let's calm down. Yan'er won't give up on Xiao Yang easily. She's just angry right now, but she'll be fine after a while."

"Um!"

Dongguan, Chang'an Wusha

Ding Yang, Jianguo, and Dawei were having a late-night snack at a food stall.

"Jianguo, how was your work with Dawei today?"

"Sigh, my legs feel like they're made of lead. This job is really not for the average person."

"What's that? The first time I did it, I worked from morning till night, and my legs didn't even feel like they belonged to me anymore."

"Ding Yang, you're different. You're bigger and stronger than us. How could we possibly beat you?"

"But the hardship is still the same."

"Ding Yang, did you manage to load up your goods while waiting for business by the national highway today?"

"Not bad, I made over 100 yuan. After deducting the gas cost, I should still have about 70 or 80 yuan left."

"Come and drink."

Dawei said, "Even if I earn seventy or eighty yuan, I can't afford to wash my feet. One wash is all it takes."

"What's the point of washing him? Jianguo's legs are already shaking, what's the point of washing him? Let him wash him in a couple of days."

Jianguo said, "I work hard to earn money, and then I go to find prostitutes. It's really a bit of a waste. I work hard all day, and then it's all gone in a flash. I'd rather not go."

"Ding Yang, you had already achieved great success, and Dawei and I originally hoped to get rich with you, but now that dream is over."

"Why don't you go to that rich woman again, beg her for forgiveness?"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you've already broken up, are you even a man?"

"What a pity."

David sighed.

"Ah! Life. When I was young, I watched martial arts movies and dreamed that one day I would be able to ride a fine horse and travel the world with a sword."

"But what have we become? We're doing manual labor, living in tin shacks, smoking tequila. All our dreams are bullshit in the face of reality."

Ding Yang shook his head.

"Sigh, I once thought of playing games in Dongguan, but I unexpectedly met a rich woman on the way. She promised me that I would have no worries in this life and no more attachments. I would accompany her to see the world's prosperity."

"But before I could even see her, when I turned around, she was gone. All that remained was the splendor, which I was unable to enjoy. There is nothing more tragic in life than this."

"Come on, finish this drink and go back to sleep."

"Oh, Jianguo, where do you live?"

"Living in a tin shack, but with air conditioning. This afternoon I'll buy a nice folding tin bed at the secondhand market, so I can fold it up and put it away during the day."

"Dawei and Wang Chang are inside. Do you want to hear their voices?"

Dawei said, "Dingyang, don't talk nonsense. Wang Chang is pregnant. I didn't touch her at all. She sleeps on the lower bunk, and I sleep on the upper bunk."

"When you're working away from home, many dormitories have male and female students sleeping together; there aren't many rules about it."

"It's cool here with the air conditioning on, it's better than sleeping outside, right?"

"Okay, it's not bad, just playing around."

"Come on, let's drink!"

……

More than an hour later, the three returned to the tin shack, where Wang Chang was watching TV.

Ding Yang picked up the laptop from the drawer.

"Wang Chang, if you're watching TV, can I use this laptop for a bit?"

"Ding Yang, you can use it. This computer is yours. There is radiation from surfing the internet, which is not good for the fetus. I rarely use the computer; I just watch TV."

"Okay, let me know if you need to use it."

"Um!"

"Jianguo, you can sleep here. I'm leaving now."

"Where are you going? So late at night?"

"Hehe, I have a lover in Usa, and I have a place to sleep."

"Awesome."

Ding Yang climbed onto the small six-wheeled vehicle.

"Da da da..."

He started the car, stepped on the gas, and drove off.

Ding Yang was in a bad mood and didn't want to go to Jingyi's place, feeling it was pointless.

I drove to an open space. It was late at night, and the wind was strong and quite cool.

I rolled down the car window, lit a mosquito coil, and prepared to spend the night in the car.

I light a cigarette, can't sleep, so I turn on my laptop and chat online.

I don't have many online friends when I log in to QQ.

Out of boredom, I started adding friends randomly, haphazardly adding people from all over the place, but they were all from Shenzhen.

"Hello!"

"Hello to you too!"

We just chatted aimlessly.

Ding Yang's online name is "The Hunter of Romance".

This username is quite attractive.

I added a female netizen named "Chanjuan".

I opened QQ Space and the photos were quite pretty.

"Hey beautiful, wanna chat?"

Unexpectedly, the other party replied.

"What do you want to talk about?"

Ding Yang replied: "Your online name is very interesting. 'May we all live long and share the beauty of the moon, though separated by a thousand miles.' Many people share you, huh? Tell me, how many men have you been with?"

"Go to hell, you scumbag!"

"Little sister, you can't swear like that! I didn't offend you."

"Hmph, your username tells you you're not a good person."

"What does a person's name have to do with whether they are a good person or not? Don't be so superficial. Chen Shimei's name sounds nice, doesn't it? Was he a good person?"

"Hmph, you womanizer, how many respectable women have you preyed upon?"

"I just chose this username, haven't even started using it yet, how about I hunt you down?"

"Go ahead, do you think you can succeed?"

Whether I succeed or not doesn't depend on me, it depends on you. If you give me a chance, I'll definitely succeed.

"..."

The other person sent an emoji.

"Hey beautiful, why aren't you sleeping so late? Are you working the night shift?"

"No, I can't sleep. I'll try again later. What about you?"

"I'm heartbroken, and I can't sleep because I miss women so much."

"Oh, how long has it been?"

"Soon, just two or three days."

"How did you get dumped?"

"He got dumped by a woman, she cheated on him."

"Looks like you're quite pitiful too?"

"Of course, could you say a few words to comfort me?"

"I'm not good at comforting people, I can only express my sympathy for your situation."

"Thank you! Why can't you sleep again? Did you break up with your boyfriend too?"

"More or less."

"It seems we're in the same boat. The mountains and rivers are hard to cross, who can mourn the heartbroken? We met by chance, and you're someone else's wife."

"Pfft, ignorant and incompetent, that's a stranger in a foreign land."

"They're pretty much the same."

"Hey beautiful, I'm in Chang'an, Dongguan. Where are you?"

"I'm in Shenzhen."

"Then we live very close to each other."

"Yes, it's not far."

"What are you doing in Chang'an?"

"Duck."

"Pah, disgusting!"
