A life of success begins with being a landlord.

Damn it, those two brats, are they treating me like I'm invisible?!

Did you think I wouldn't dare?

Be careful, I can be more beastly than any beast!

After drinking, I became more shameless and patted Liu Haomei's head: "You brat, if Brother Wang wanted to kiss you, he would have done it a long time ago. He wouldn't have waited until now."

Bobo wanted to give Liu Haomei to me from the beginning, but I didn't want her.

That was a long time ago; Liu Haomei was called Afang back then!

Liu Haomei turned to look at me, her eyes suddenly reddened, she lowered her head to eat, and stopped talking.

Chunyan looked at Liu Haomei: "What's wrong, Haomei? I was just kidding, are you angry?"

"No." Liu Haomei shook her head, but a tear fell into her bowl.

Chunyan panicked, wiped Liu Haomei's tears, and glared at me: "Old Wang, it's all your fault for talking nonsense. Look, you made Haomei cry."

"What nonsense am I talking about? Did I make Liu Haomei cry? How did I do anything to her? This is ridiculous, it's completely inexplicable!"

I glared at Chunyan and went to the living room to smoke.

Women are so unpredictable; they cry one minute and laugh the next. You just can't understand what they're thinking!

Did I do anything to her? No, I didn't at all!

Liu Haomei put down her rice bowl and came over to apologize to me: "Brother Wang, it's not your fault just now. It was my own fault... I was thinking about things at home and felt upset for a moment."

Without turning my head, I said, "I'm going to Sihai Printing Factory. Are you coming?"

"Together, I'll go with Brother Wang."

"Let's go."

I grabbed my car keys, turned around and went out, but then I saw Chunyan pouting, looking aggrieved.

I asked, "Chunyan, do you want to come along?"

"I won't go. I'll go back to work after your stitches are removed. I'll stay home these next couple of days and do your laundry..."

"Okay, wait for me at home, I'll come back and buy you something to eat."

I waved my hand and led Liu Haomei out the door.

Liu Haomei got on the motorcycle and gently hugged my waist.

The motorcycle moved forward leisurely, and it was quite cool and comfortable.

"Brother Wang, what you just said, did you... look down on me?" Liu Haomei suddenly spoke up.

I slowed down and turned my head slightly: "What do you mean you dislike me?"

"Are you disgusted by me because I did it with Bobo...?"

Liu Haomei started sobbing: "Actually, I didn't. I stayed in Bobo's shop for three hours, and there wasn't a single customer..."

Women are such a hassle, they cry at the drop of a hat!

I had already left Sanlichuan Street. Seeing that there was no one ahead, I simply pulled over and turned to look at Liu Haomei:

"I know you haven't done this before. Bobo said you're a clean and pretty young woman, and I heard that. I didn't look down on you, otherwise, would I have helped you find a job?"

Right now, I really want to turn around and give Liu Haomei back to Bobo.

I've helped her so much, and she still seems to blame me!

Even if I dislike you, so what? Can't I dislike you?

If you know how to respect yourself, then don't go to those shady places. You went to that dirty place, and now you're blaming me for looking down on you?

Liu Haomei lowered her head and peeked at me again: "You said you wanted to kiss me, but you already did. That means you dislike me, right?"

I was so angry I laughed.

So the reason she cried earlier was because of something I said!

"Brother Wang, what are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at you for being so fussy and annoying!" I glared at you.

"You were the one who said it first, that you'd kiss me as much as you wanted once Chunyan wasn't around. What I meant by that was... even if we were dating, I'd make the first move, not you. I was just joking, so why are you crying?"

Liu Haomei chuckled.

"Look at you, you cry one minute and laugh the next, I'm scared of you!" I shook my head.

boo.

Suddenly, Liu Haomei hugged my neck and kissed me.

Damn it, she still struck first!

"Okay, sis, stop messing around." My heart was pounding, and I turned my head away, saying, "Go to work."

Sending this aunt to work will put my mind at ease.

Liu Haomei hugged my lower back again and whispered, "Brother Wang, this is my first time riding a motorcycle. Could you... take me for a ride around the neighborhood? The printing factory doesn't open until 2 PM."

Work doesn't start until 2 PM? You're early!

I thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll take you for a drive."

I'd also like to familiarize myself with the environment of the new development zone.

Now that we have motorcycles, it's very convenient.

I took Liu Haomei with me and ran wherever we saw a road, wandering around aimlessly like headless flies, looking east and west the whole way.

Before I knew it, I had left the development zone and arrived at a field in the wild.

"I've finished driving through the development zone; this is the countryside." I turned the car around, ready to head back.

"Brother Wang, stop the car for a moment." Liu Haomei tugged at my clothes.

"What are you going to do now?" I stopped the car.

Liu Haomei stammered, "I...I need to go to the toilet..."

I looked around, and there wasn't a single toilet in sight.

Liu Haomei had already gotten out of the car. She looked around and suddenly pointed to the farmland to the south: "I'm going over there. Keep an eye on things."

"Ah, I...keep an eye on things?"

You're going to the toilet, and I'm supposed to keep an eye on you?

"I'm afraid there might be bad guys." Liu Haomei smiled, took a couple of steps, then turned back: "Brother Wang, did you... bring any tissues?"

"You're in college? I don't have any toilet paper."

I shook my head: "Just pick a couple of leaves from the field, that'll do."

"No, I, I'm young..." Liu Haomei glared at me and ran away.

Why would a child need paper? Just shake it and that's it.

Taking off your pants to fart is pointless!

Liu Haomei didn't run more than a few steps before turning sideways and squatting down.

I quickly turned my head.

But the motorcycle's rearview mirror clearly reflected Liu Haomei.

So white, even whiter than a swallow in spring.

I glanced at it, then glanced at it again, and remembered what my moral education teacher had taught me. So I got out of the car, turned my back to Liu Haomei, sat on the grassy ridge to the side, smoked, and picked up a foxtail grass, playing with it idly in my hand.

There's foxtail grass here too, exactly the same as the foxtail grass in my hometown.

As I played with the foxtail grass, I suddenly became a thinker, feeling that people in a foreign land are as lowly as this foxtail grass. One second it is swaying in the wind, and the next second it may be pulled up or trampled underfoot.

Liu Haomei quietly came over and sat down next to me: "Brother Wang, what are you thinking about?"

I turned my head slightly: "Your hometown... is on the Loess Plateau?"

I've seen Liu Haomei's ID card and know she's from the Northwest Plateau.

"Yes, the Loess Plateau." Liu Haomei nodded. "Have you been there?"

"I've never been there, but my first love was from there, and she could sing folk songs."

"Ah, was Brother Wang's first love from our area?"

Liu Haomei was surprised and excited, as if she had met a long-lost relative.

I nodded: "She's a famous singer. I was with her and we lived together for two years."

Liu Haomei's eyes widened in surprise and delight: "You even lived together? Was your first love a singer? Who was it?"

"Tianqi." I exhaled a puff of smoke, recalling with a heavy heart:

"My family was poor back then, and we only had a very small bed. Every night, I slept on the bed, and she was pressed against the wall."

"puff……"

Liu Haomei burst out laughing, pounced on my legs, and punched me: "You big liar, you liar! According to you, I've lived with Dehua, Guorong, Fucheng, and Xueyou."

"You've lived with so many men, no one will want you anymore." I laughed too.

For some reason, this is the most relaxed moment I've had since arriving in Dongguan.

This place is quiet and secluded; the world belongs to me alone.

"If nobody else wants me, I'll stick with you, Brother Wang."

Liu Haomei raised her face, looked at me affectionately, and gradually moved closer.
