After a brief moment of surprise, the man's breathing became heavy, and his anger seemed to be able to spread from the receiver along the radio waves into the air around Lin Xiangling.
The girl trembled subconsciously, but she gritted her teeth and straightened her back: "Do you understand? It's okay, I'm hanging up."
"Wait." Lin Jian interrupted, "What you just said means that you want to report me?"
"Yes."
"Report me for what?"
"Gather. People. Gamble. Gambling."
"……Ha ha ha ha!"
Lin Jian suddenly began to laugh nervously, and then he suddenly said in a sinister voice, "Okay, Lin Xiangling, now that you've grown up and become independent, do you no longer recognize me as your father?"
"I just don't want to encourage your mistakes."
"Bah!" Lin Jian's voice suddenly increased. "Mistake? I can do whatever I want. Do I need a little bastard like you to point fingers at me? With your little social experience, you think you can control me?"
"No matter what your social experience is, gambling is wrong!"
"Okay, then come and sue me. Damn it, do you know how many years that place has been open? Who is backing it up? Do you know how many factory workers have been there?"
"…Is this why you lost all your living expenses and came to ask your daughter, who is in her second year of high school, for money? Dear father, you seem to be proud of this. Since you have so much social experience, I believe you can find a way to get the money yourself."
Lin Jian couldn't hold it in any longer and started to curse, saying that he would teach the little bastard a lesson and told Lin Xiangling to wait for him.
Hehehe, the old man’s defense is broken!
Lin Xiangling hung up the phone with a faint smile on her face.
A bit of... a weird sense of accomplishment.
In the past, I could only endure scolding in front of my father, but now I have learned to mock others in a sarcastic way... It must be because I have been with Brother Lin Yun for a long time that I learned it. Hehe, Brother Lin Yun is so bad.
It seemed like this was the first time that I felt so calm after having an argument with my father.
With this in mind, Lin Xiangling sent a message to Lin Yun, asking him if he had time to come to the art center on the weekend. She had found something interesting and wanted to share it with Brother Lin Yun.
The night sky is clear and the girl's eyes are as bright as lights.
87. Jiang Qianxi's Special Training (4000 words)
In the past, Hua'an County was not under the jurisdiction of Beicang City. It was a kick-ball from the prefecture-level city bordering it to the west during a certain administrative division change.
The economic development level of this place is poor, the soil is barren, transportation is inconvenient, and the scenery is almost insulated from the tourism industry. There is a little industry, but looking around, it is all backward production capacity that is on the verge of being banned by environmental protection policies. In fact, people's life is not easy, but it is not that poor and has never been labeled as a poor county.
There is no money to be made, no subsidies to enjoy, no policies to get... The people are quite tough and brave, and every household living in the mountains has a homemade bow. In the early years, clan fights and injuries were common. The city party committee leader bluntly said that "even if Genghis Khan came, everyone would have to shed their skin." As for the economic situation, they definitely can't have enough to eat, but they won't starve to death either.
Anyway, it’s like the silver segment, it’s stuck there.
In the past few years, infrastructure construction has been in full swing in various places, and land finance has made a lot of money... but all this has nothing to do with Hua'an County.
A main road runs across the county town, and everything related to prosperity is located on this main road and its affiliated alleys.
A Hunan restaurant that uses heavy oil, salt and spicy food, a smoky auto repair shop, a deserted hardware store, a wedding photo studio with a yellowed sign, a bookstore run by the family of a county high school leader, a KTV with two tall, fat security guards standing at the door, a barber shop that hardly cuts hair... The whole street retains a relatively ancient style, like a black key half note left aside in the torrent of time.
Every household has extra children.
Girls are usually sent to work in the south by their parents when they are around sixteen years old, or they get married and then go to work in the south, or they go to work first and when they come back for the Chinese New Year, their parents hurriedly find a matchmaker to arrange a quick wedding banquet with a completely strange man, and then they return to their respective working places and continue to live numbly.
After the refinery went bankrupt, apart from a small number of government officials and primary and secondary school teachers, it was basically impossible to find reliable jobs locally.
The old workers run small businesses, get together to do nothing, play cards, drink, make loud noises, and go home to torment their wives and children...
Apart from the KTV and the mahjong parlor, there is basically no nightlife. But if you walk on this street late at night, you can always hear faint sobbing, dialect abuse through the wall, and the messy sound of an old man singing folk songs or chanting incantations...
If you see young people wearing business attire and looking energetic on the street, they are usually selling insurance or health products to the elderly.
The teaching level in the county middle school is not very good, but the level of money-making by successive principals is as high as ever. Students with a little talent often have the only ideal in life of "passing the exam and going to the city" starting from the second grade of junior high school.
In junior high school, naughty children will still throw paper balls at good students in class. When they are older, you can often see used Taotao in the toilet.
……
This is where Lin Xiangling grew up, and it is also the place she desperately wants to escape from.
……
When the fog in the mountains dissipates, the employees of the old refinery are accustomed to going to Liu Laizi's store to buy cigarettes, alcohol and Ice Wolf. Liu Laizi's store has been open for more than ten years. At the end of last year, he also bought the shop next door to operate a chess and card room. People who are well-informed in the county say that Liu Laizi has connected with a very powerful man in the city named "Brother Long".
Therefore, everyone had more respect for Liu Laizi, especially Lin Jian, who owed him 20,000 yuan. He could have ignored it before, but this old gang is no longer the same as before. Lin Jian consciously visited the store more often and said a few nice words, hoping that Liu Laizi could be more lenient.
Today's situation was very unusual. The total amount of cigarettes, alcohol and daily necessities was about 100 yuan. Liu Laizi gave him the change and even gave Lin Jian two extra packs of chewing gum, which was really rare for him who was always stingy.
Lin Jian was confused and held his breath for a long time. Then, he opened his thick lips on his stern face and said, "Thank you."
"Haha, we are old neighbors, we should take care of each other. It's only natural." Compared to the taciturn Lin Jian, Liu Laizi is obviously the talkative type. A few words of casual conversation make him seem very warm. But in fact, Liu Laizi and Lin Jian have a very ordinary relationship, and he even often despises him behind his back.
A dull person who can't even fart, hated by everyone, with no background and no ability, who is lucky enough to have a smart and beautiful daughter... If she were a parent with a little insight, he would definitely support her education no matter what.
Oh, how could Lao Lin end up like this... Actually, Liu Laizi could understand it. This girl, after studying a lot, didn't want to stay in a small county town. She always wanted to run away to a big city. If she was really allowed to gain a foothold in a big city, it would be difficult to control her.
Similar examples have happened many times in the past ten years. The girl had good grades and won a scholarship to Delin Middle School, which ruined her originally arranged marriage... Delin Middle School was full of young masters and young ladies. How could a girl who had been classmates with them still look down on a man from Hua'an County?
So gradually, parents are no longer willing to send their children to Delin, and at most they send their children to a middle school in the neighboring county with a higher admission rate.
But you can't just let your daughter run to Beicang to fend for herself, right?
To be fair, Liu Laizi admitted that he was not a good man, but Lin Jian was really too much to his daughter... Liu Laizi remembered the jokes they used to make, saying that this girl was definitely not his biological daughter, otherwise he would not be so neglectful.
The news he received yesterday suddenly woke Liu Laizi up. It turned out that Lin Xiangling did not fend for herself, but instead made a name for herself.
interesting.
Need to ask clearly.
After going around in circles for a long time, Liu Laizi finally got to the point. He patted his bumpy bald head and seemed to suddenly remember something: "Hey, Lao Lin, I have a nephew. Doesn't he work in Beicang? I ran into your daughter in a big hotel yesterday."
"Really?"
"Really!"
Lin Jian's eyes flickered, his rough hands rubbing the cigarette box, and suddenly asked: "What did she go to the hotel for?"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't misunderstand, Old Lin... I heard from my nephew that it was a very prestigious occasion! Only young men favored by the Lin family can enter."
"Lin family? Which Lin family?"
"You said, of course it's the richest one!"
The hand that was lighting the cigarette trembled a little, and it took him half a minute to finally light the cigarette. In the dim light under the awning in front of the convenience store, the flames from the burning tobacco made the man's square face covered with stubble appear dark and red.
The Lin family took a fancy to her...
Tsk tsk tsk, just her?
"Fu..." Lin Jian exhaled a long puff of smoke and said casually, "Which young master has taken a fancy to her? Become a mistress and give her money every month?"
"...Not really." Liu Laizi was once again shocked by Lin Jian's malice towards his daughter and swallowed his saliva. "Is there a possibility that it's because of her good academic performance?"
"No matter how good you are at studying, you're still a waste." Lin Jian thought for a moment and forced a smile, "Thanks, Brother Liu."
Walking out of the store carrying his things, Lin Jian was filled with emotion.
The Lin family...it's such a distant memory.
The youth that was buried deep in my mind was almost forgotten, but at this moment I suddenly realized that the memory was still extremely clear.
My daughter is actually related to the Lin family. Maybe this is fate... Never mind. No matter what, this little bastard is lucky enough to be rich. In that case, it is only natural for him to ask her for some money, right?
No wonder Lin Xiangling's attitude was so tough when they talked on the phone. Haha, it turns out that after gaining more experience, she no longer takes her father seriously.
This is not okay.
Lin Jian plans to go to Beicang.
Since the conversation over the phone didn't work, let's talk face to face. After all, she was the child he raised, and he had to collect enough interest from her, otherwise he would be at a huge loss.
……
Every week, Jiang Qianxi would take an afternoon off from school and go to a fixed dance studio to take dance lessons.
Rather than saying it is a professional skill, it is better to say that it is just the cultivation of a hobby. Her dancing is indeed at the level of a hobby. Lin Yun said that if she does not like the rigorous training of professional dancers, it does not matter, it will not affect her future.
"The tolerance of contemporary domestic entertainment audiences for professional ability is ridiculously high. Regardless of how well you sing, even a girl who is very stiff in singing, dancing and acting can still have the opportunity to become a national idol."
Jiang Qianxi felt that what Ayun said was heresy. If you really can't do anything, why would others like you?
And she doesn't want to be a national idol. As long as there are people willing to listen to her singing, Jiang Qianxi will be very happy.
Taking dance classes can help keep in shape, and at least she thinks it helps to improve personal charm.
As for the reason, it's actually a bit funny... I forgot which grade in junior high school it was, but one time I was wearing a training suit and white stockings, and jumped a few times at home for fun. As a result, Lin Yun looked at me several more times, and his eyes lit up very obviously, and his attention was immediately drawn to me.
Afterwards, Jiang Qianxi secretly cursed Ayun for being no different from other men, all bad guys... and then went to her mother to ask for money to enroll in dance classes.
At that time, her mother teased her for a long time. Her mother said that when she took her to learn ballet when she was a child, she cried and said she didn't want to learn it, but now she wants to learn it again to please the boy she likes. She is really hopeless.
"I just like Ayun. So what if I'm a loser!" Jiang Qianxi said confidently, her cheeks blushing.
Dancing is, in a sense, very similar to math competitions. Although both start to show their talents at the age of fifteen or sixteen, those who are able to show their talents must have devoted their efforts in this field since a very young age.
Of course there are exceptions. For example, Yu Sheng didn’t attend many Olympiad classes when she was young, but she participated in math competitions for more than a year in high school and was an amazing achiever... Jiang Qianxi envied Shengsheng very much. She thought Shengsheng was a genius, but she didn’t think she was.
Today they learned a Korean dance, the kind of girl group dance with very sexy moves. Jiang Qianxi was not used to flirting and was a little shy, so her progress was a little slow.
The teacher was not in a hurry. Qianxi was a very good girl with perseverance and determination. She would be able to learn it if she remembered more and practiced more.
During the break, the teacher gave her a bottle of sugar-free sparkling water. The two of them leaned on the iron railings of the dance studio, panting and looking at the city scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
"Why do you want to learn this style of dance?" the teacher asked. "You don't seem to have this kind of temperament when singing. It's quite fresh. It feels a bit out of place."
"No...it has nothing to do with singing. I just wanted to learn it myself."
"Oh...oh~" the teacher suddenly understood, "You are dancing for your husband again. Tsk tsk, your husband is so happy."
"..." Jiang Qianxi was always left speechless by her teacher. After all, she was a married older sister, and she could only speak rude words.
The teacher is a very enthusiastic person. Once, when he was chatting with Lin Yun by chance, he seemed a little too enthusiastic, which made Jiang Qianxi unhappy. After clearing up the misunderstanding and asking the reason, the teacher smiled from ear to ear. From then on, as long as she was not in front of Lin Yun, she would call him "your husband" or "your dear".
The teacher said that if she were ten years younger, she would also like Lin Yun, and she always urged Jiang Qianxi to make a move quickly... She even discussed the matter with Qianxi's mother, which was amazing.
"Then let's adjust the teaching direction later... The teacher is an experienced person, so I will teach you the details on how to dance to arouse a man's lust..."
"No way, just dance normally according to the original version! Teacher, please stop making trouble!" Jiang Qianxi hurriedly stopped him.
She said she was dancing for Lin Yun, but actually she hadn't thought about the occasion to do it. It had to be a private space where they were alone and Shengsheng wasn't around... Just thinking about this made her feel so sorry for Shengsheng. After all, Shengsheng just liked to let Yun play with her feet.
Yu Sheng and Lin Yun had never experienced that kind of private occasion without the presence of a third party.
Sometimes Jiang Qianxi couldn't help but get a little intimate with Lin Yun in front of Yu Sheng. From Jiang Qianxi's point of view, this was to reassure Yu Sheng and tell Yu Sheng - Qianxi, I might do something a little bit inappropriate, but I would never do anything serious.
I may cheat, but I will never betray you.
But... the idea of trying to cross that line popped up in Jiang Qianxi's mind more and more frequently.
Because, it seems that she is really going to embark on the road to stardom and work hard towards becoming a household name. This is Lin Yun's expectation for her and her dream. But if she really takes this path and becomes a public figure, it seems inevitable that she will become estranged from A Yun.
Lin Yun is such a sensible boy. Celebrities are most afraid of scandals. For her future, Lin Yun will definitely keep his distance from her. After all, Lin Yun likes to think about her the most.
Now, he only occasionally signs autographs for classmates in school; when he reaches the point where he is asked for autographs on the streets, what changes will Lin Yun make?
Jiang Qianxi could guess it.
Holding hands when shopping in the supermarket, clinging to his chest when getting off the subway, and whining to him to carry her on her back when she was tired from climbing a mountain...
I am afraid that these will never exist again and will become things that exist only in memories.
As for Ayun, he is so good at investment now, he will definitely be a super powerful boss in the future, and he can live well without the support of his family. Then Yu Sheng will become a scientific research expert, and everyone who sees her will think that she and Ayun are a perfect match...
Jiang Qianxi's imagination went wild and the more he thought about it, the darker his face became.
"What's wrong with you?" The teacher tapped her head. "Are you possessed?"
"I want to learn."
"Ah?" The teacher was a little confused. "What are you learning?"
"Learn... that's what you said, how to seduce a man... that... um!"
The tears in the shy girl's eyes seemed to be about to overflow, but she gritted her teeth firmly.
Maybe it won’t be used, but...but, as a preparation, she must learn it!
As a result, when she was practicing the movements of twisting her hips and looking back and smiling, she happened to see Lin Yun appear outside the floor-to-ceiling window on one side of the corridor, standing there and looking at her with a smile.
That was another part of the dance classroom, similar to a reception room. There was a door access control outside and only teachers and students could come in. Lin Yun came to pick up Jiang Qianxi many times and became familiar with her, so the teacher gave him an access card.
