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

"Sister, you need to take care of yourself. You are the foundation of the family. Go back and rest. Xiao Liu and Xiao Zhang are enough to take care of your mother."

"Yes, my mom said I won't be coming to the hospital tonight. Wang Chan is here too; she'll stay with me tonight."

"That's great. With your best friend by your side, you won't be bored at night."

"Um!"

"Sis, you go back and eat. I'm driving. I'm hanging up now."

"good!"

After hanging up the phone, I suddenly lost interest. I was in a rush just now, but it felt like I'd been doused with cold water.

"Brother, what happened to Tan Yan's mother?"

"Oh, I slipped and fell while taking a shower at home and broke my arm."

Is it serious?

"It's not that serious, but it's not minor either. After all, it's a fracture, and given that I'm elderly, it will probably take several months to fully recover."

"oh!"

"Xiaoyang, do you love Tan Yan?"

"How should I put it? I can't say I have absolutely no feelings for her, nor can I say I love her that much. I can only say I love her, but I love her RMB even more."

"She's a strong woman with an extremely strong desire to control everything. She's the undisputed, domineering CEO of the company, and she's also incredibly energetic and insightful in her work. If she were a man, her achievements would definitely be even more remarkable."

"Brother, I can tell you still like her quite a bit."

"Qinghe, although I am greedy and lustful, I am not without principles. If I don't like someone, no matter how rich they are, I won't touch them."

"Life is a long journey. After leaving school, you will need money everywhere. Especially for men, when they reach the age of spending money, being penniless is worse than death."

"Even a hero can be brought down by a penny; when you have no money in your pocket, you don't even dare to speak loudly."

"I've worked as a motorcycle taxi driver, screwed in screws in a factory, bought fried chicken at KFC, carried cement and sand on construction sites. I've endured all kinds of hardships, but no matter how hard you try, you can never make money."

Even if you earn a few hundred dollars today, there will always be places for you to spend money the next day, and in the end you will still be spending more than you earn and have no money left over.

"No matter how hard I try, I can only barely make ends meet. This is not the life I want. A man without money is essentially dead in a woman's heart."

"When a man has no money, even a dog won't pay attention to him. Even if you try to borrow money, no one will lend it to you because they're afraid you won't be able to pay it back."

"All your relatives and friends will stay far away from you."

"Brother, I know. My family was like that too. When I was in school, we didn't have any money. My dad went to borrow money, but no one was willing to lend it to us. My mom was so anxious that she cried."

"So, I secretly vowed that no matter what means I used, I would make money, even if it meant living off a woman."

"Meeting Tan Yan was an accident, but also inevitable, because I was already planning to live off a woman. I just didn't expect things to develop so quickly."

"Qinghe, you haven't been in society for very long and don't know the wickedness of people. You need to learn to protect yourself in the future."

"Brother, I will."

"Brother, will you break up with Tan Yan?"

"I don't know. Maybe we'll break up tomorrow, or maybe we won't. The initiative isn't necessarily in my hands."

"However, after the child is born, I definitely won't live with her; I'll go about my own business."

"Although I'm currently living off a woman, I don't want to completely lose myself, nor can I become her pet."

"Brother, will you marry me?"

"Qinghe, you are still young. Marriage is still a long way off for us. Regardless of gender, we should always try to date and gradually mature."

"Even if you don't talk to me, there will be others. I don't want to hide anything from you. Although I like you quite a bit, it's still too early for us to get married now."

"Perhaps you think I'm being irresponsible by saying this, but this is my honest opinion, and I don't want to hide anything from you."

"If you're willing to date me, I won't treat you badly. I'll treat you very well and take care of you to the best of my ability, like protecting my own eyes."

"If one day you no longer want to be with me, or if you find a man you like more, I will take the initiative to let go and fulfill your wishes."

"Brother, I haven't thought about finding someone else."

"That's what you think now, not what you'll think in the future. Right now, you only have me in your eyes. But as time goes by and you meet more people, you won't think that way anymore. You'll find what you're saying now ridiculous and childish."

"Brother, since you and Tan Yan are so close, and you're going to have a baby, why did you want me just now?"

Want to hear the truth?

"certainly!"

"Because I want to be your first man. Whether I can be your only man or not, I don't know. That's your decision, but I hope to be your first man."

"I know this is a selfish thought, but I really don't have the courage to accept you being with another man, especially in this situation."

"In today's society, you never know whether an accident or tomorrow will come first. Only what you have had is truly what you have had. Once you miss it, things may change, or you may never be able to go back."

"Love is selfish. I don't like to lie or deceive women into sympathy. My current thought is to possess you first and make you my woman. As for whether it can last forever, I really haven't thought that far ahead."

"Brother, you're so selfish."

"Yes, I know."

Suddenly, Qinghe hugged Dingyang.

"..."

"Brother, you're a bit bruised..."

The value of these three words surpasses that of the Imperial Seal of the State. At this moment, my feelings are beyond words. For these three words, a man would risk his life and abandon everything.

"what……"

"..."

Tears slid down her cheeks.

A sharp pain shot through Ding Yang's shoulder.

……

For some reason, whether it was regret or luck, in a single thought, the world lost a young girl.

Ding Yang is lucky; at this moment, he is the luckiest man in the world.

Although he had been bitten on the shoulder, he was breathing heavily like a monster on the verge of death, making people think he was seriously ill and about to die, when in fact he was still alive.

……

……

"Qinghe, I love you."

"Brother, I love you too."

Ding Yang understood that love is something that, when it's intense and dramatic, is actually just empty talk afterward.

"Qinghe, it's almost 7 o'clock. Let's go downstairs for dinner. Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. I don't want to move right now. My stomach hurts a little."

"How about I pack some to bring back for you to eat?"

"Brother, I'm not hungry right now. Let's eat later. Talk to me for a bit."

"OK!"

"Qinghe, do you regret it?"

Qinghe shook her head.

"I like you. I liked you the moment I saw you. I have no regrets about giving my first time to the man I like."

"Brother, if you leave Tan Yan now, will she take your house back?"

"It's hard to say right now. The property certificate hasn't been issued yet. I estimate it will take a few more months. Once the property certificate is issued, she won't be able to get it back even if she wants it."
