Xu Lang refused cleanly and decisively; Zhang Yuejiao was somewhat taken aback.

She had originally planned it all out: Xu Lang was in debt for over a hundred thousand yuan and had nowhere to turn. If she offered him a helping hand, even if he wasn't grateful, he would at least have to agree with tears in his eyes! At most, he would just haggle and drag things out.

Unexpectedly, he paid off his debts and then refused my request without hesitation.

"Xu Lang, I can pay more, five hundred a day!"

In her view, most of the time when deals fall through, it's a matter of price, so she proactively raises the price.

This time, Xu Lang didn't refuse immediately, but rather with a hint of curiosity:

"Sister Yue, didn't you look down on people like me from the bottom of society? Why would you ask me for help?"

"You should have no shortage of elites around you whose net worth matches yours; aren't they a better choice?"

Zhang Yuejiao sighed inwardly!

She considered dating a colleague, but the male colleagues at her level were either married or had partners. Even if there were single ones, they would ask for an appearance fee of 50,000 or 80,000 yuan, and she would have to sign a contract and buy insurance.

In contrast, Xu Lang is from the lower rungs of society, so the price he would charge would certainly not be too high; moreover, he is handsome and young.

In conclusion, Xu Lang offers the best value for money.

Most importantly, he has debts!

"They're either married or have partners, it's inconvenient!" Zhang Yuejiao composed herself slightly, becoming less hesitant, and looked at Xu Lang seriously:

"We're roommates, we know each other inside and out, so even if something goes wrong, I can always take control of the situation."

As someone in a position of power, what she enjoys most is being in control of the overall situation; she can easily manipulate someone like Xu Lang, who is at the bottom of society.

"Also, you're usually so cunning, but when it really matters, you put on a completely honest and simple act. Your acting is so natural that my mom can't easily see through you."

Xu Lang's lips twitched as he listened!

So, in your eyes, my "honesty and simplicity" has become a special kind of "pretending talent"?

"Sister Yue, are you praising me or insulting me?" Xu Lang smiled wryly, taking a deep drag of his cigarette to calm himself.

"Besides, this isn't about money; I don't need it right now."

With that, he stood up and walked towards the room:

"You'd better find someone else!"

"Six hundred, six hundred a day!" Zhang Yuejiao thought he was dissatisfied with the price and immediately raised it, but Xu Lang kept walking forward:

"Eight hundred, that's the most I can do, eight hundred—"

boom!

Xu Lang entered the room, closed the door, and didn't even look back.

Zhang Yuejiao stomped her foot in anger, her breasts jiggling slightly. She gritted her teeth and raised her voice.

"Xu Lang, don't go too far. Eight hundred is my limit!"

He stared intently at Xu Lang's door, hoping he would open it, but after three minutes, the door remained motionless.

"Xu Lang, you just wait and see!"

He snorted coldly, turned around and went into the room, slamming the door shut behind him.

……

Xu Lang lay on the bed in the room, scrolling through short videos on his phone. He came across a three-hour-long novel review...

In my hazy state, I heard a voice say, "If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, Li Chungang..." and my eyelids finally closed.

The next day!

As Zhang Yuejiao got up to wash and was about to go to the bathroom with her toiletries, she found Zhang Yuejiao inside using the toilet.

Xu Lang could only sit in the living room and wait.

Wait and see, and you'll find something's wrong!

Does this woman live inside? It's been half an hour and she still hasn't come out.

I checked the time on my phone; if I didn't wash up soon, I'd be late for work.

Arriving at the bathroom door, I knocked:

"Sister Yue, are you done yet?"

"What's the rush? Are you some kind of death knell?!" Zhang Yuejiao's impatient voice rang out.

"You'll get diarrhea, just you wait!"

Xu Lang felt somewhat helpless!

Zhang Yuejiao is usually a "special forces" soldier who washes up quickly and efficiently, and even does her makeup on the subway.

What's wrong with me today? Am I constipated or am I cultivating immortality on the toilet?

"Sister Yue, I'm going to be late soon, aren't you going to be late too?"

"I'm on field duty today!"

"..." Xu Lang suddenly had a bad feeling!

revenge!

Naked revenge!

"Sister Yue, please consider me?"

"I'd consider you?" Zhang Yuejiao's disdainful voice rang out.

"Then who's going to consider me? Anyway, I won't be out for a while, so you'll have to figure it out yourself."

Xu Lang was speechless!

I took my toiletries, went back to my room, put them in a plastic bag, changed my clothes, and quickly went out.

Midway through, I passed a public restroom and quickly went in to brush my teeth and wash my face.

He cursed Zhang Yuejiao's ancestors for eighteen generations in his mind.

That woman is so vicious!

All I did was refuse your offer to sell yourself. Is it really necessary to resort to such underhanded tactics?

I arrived at the company, seething with anger!

Finally, some good news arrived: Wang Jie's daughter, Su Liqiu, sent him a girl's WeChat, saying she was a high school classmate, and told them to contact her themselves.

"So efficient?"

Xu Lang was pleasantly surprised!

My bad mood from the morning dissipated considerably. After expressing my gratitude, I quickly requested to add you as a friend.

The next blind date is just around the corner!

He's more looking forward to the next blind date, which should at least involve money, right?

The friend request was accepted immediately.

Xu Lang quickly took the initiative to greet him: "Hello, my name is Xu Lang, I was introduced by Miss Su."

The other party is typing—【Hello, my name is Liang Xiuhua, Liqiu's high school classmate. I'm a bit busy right now. Could you arrange a time and place so we can meet tonight to talk?】

Xu Lang's lips curled into a slight smile. This girl was straightforward: "[The seaside restaurant, 7 PM tonight, is that alright?]"

【Can. 】

Chat over!

Xu Lang clicked into her WeChat Moments, which was set to be visible for only three days. He only saw one pinned post: a nine-grid photo of her checking in at tourist attractions.

The scenery is beautiful, but the person is even more beautiful; her short hair is slightly curly, and she smiles like a flower.

Looks pretty reliable!

Worth looking forward to it!

……

During lunch, Zhang Yuejiao sent him a message, inviting him to dinner that evening.

Xu Lang knew what she wanted to do and refused without hesitation.

She's probably cursing Xu Lang a thousand times over on the other side.

Xu Lang sat calmly, a smile playing on his lips; no one could stop him from going on a blind date.

This time it's about "the world's healthiest kidney," next time it'll probably be back to money.

My heart is full of anticipation!

Finally, it was time to leave work, and he was the first to walk out of the company right on time.

"Xu Lang, something's not right with you lately!" His colleague Zhou Fang followed closely behind, quickly catching up with him.

"During work hours, you're constantly looking at your phone. Confess, are you in a relationship?"

"What kind of girl is so brave as to throw herself at a man who owes hundreds of thousands in debt?"

Xu Lang rolled his eyes at her!

Zhou Fang is tall and beautiful. When she first came in, I was the one who mentored her. Back then, she called me "Master" all the time and even expressed her love for me.

But at that time, he had a girlfriend, so he pretended to be stupid; later, he got seriously ill and his girlfriend swindled him out of all his savings and even had to borrow money for treatment.

It's highly likely that Zhou Fang told all this to her colleagues at the company; it was from that time that Zhou Fang became indifferent to her.

He no longer called himself "Master," but addressed him by his name directly.

But he didn't care; he had long since let it go.

When it comes to work, just do your job well; don't expect any romantic feelings to develop, and you'll feel much more relaxed.

"Xiaofang, instead of wasting your time worrying about my personal affairs, why don't you finish writing your code first? Stop making me clean up your messes and fix bugs all the time." Xu Lang walked into the elevator and turned to look at her.

Zhou Fang was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to react. She walked into the elevator in a huff and remained silent the whole way.

As the elevator reached the first floor, Xu Lang prepared to step out:

"Also, I've paid off my debts of over 100,000 yuan!"

After saying that, he strode away from the elevator with his long legs.

Zhou Fang's cheeks were burning. She had been awkwardly riding the elevator all the way down when she heard his words. She looked up in surprise, only to see his figure gradually disappearing into the distance. Her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
