It was late at night.
Downstairs of Yuan Xue's aunt's house.
After watching Yuan Xue go upstairs, Li Dong sighed, looking a little melancholic.
He took out a cigarette, lit it, and slowly smoked.
The weather was not on his side. Just as he lit the cigarette, it started drizzling.
Tan Yong hurriedly walked over with an umbrella. Li Dong waved his hand and said, "No need."
Tan Yong could only take a step back. He wanted to say something but hesitated, not knowing how to persuade him.
Li Dong took a few puffs of his cigarette and raised his head to look. One of the floors above him was lit up.
As if he knew that Yuan Xue was looking at him, Li Dong chuckled and said, "Do you think I should wait for you in the rain for a night?"
Tan Yong was shocked when he heard that. He then heard Li Dong say with a smile, "Forget it. Why torture yourself? If you really torture your body, wouldn't that be looking for trouble?"
Tan Yong heaved a sigh of relief. His boss was still rational.
Just as he finished thinking, he heard Li Dong say, "But people, always thinking so much. Is it too tiring?"
Tan Yong's heart was in his throat again. He was a little afraid that his boss would be stubborn.
"But it's already winter. It's really cold."
Tan Yong was about to cry. My god, can you not speak haltingly? Finish it in one breath!
After a few words from Li Dong, Tan Yong's heart almost couldn't take it anymore.
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard Li Dong sigh again. "I have really changed over the years.
In the past, I wouldn't think so much.
If I want to do something, I'll just do it.
Whoever offends me, I'll beat them up.
Even if I can't beat them, it's fine. I'll do it first. At most, I'll just get beaten up. How tiring is life to be so overcautious?
But in the past few years, I've really changed.
He became timid, cautious, overcautious, and indecisive. He held back, endured, considered, and weighed the pros and cons …
Others say that I'm daring and unscrupulous, but that's just the beginning.
I have to think it through before I make a move. Otherwise, I'll continue to hold it in.
As a result, I have today's success and recognition, and I have my current ambitions. It's really hard to tell the difference between the gains and losses. "
Tan Yong was a little confused, but he knew that his boss wasn't in a good state.
Being sentimental was not Li Dong's personality.
But now, the boss sighed with emotion. It seemed that he was stimulated.
Li Dong, on the other hand, was not agitated. He just felt aggrieved and flustered.
He didn't know how he felt so aggrieved, but he just felt aggrieved and unhappy. He felt like he was no longer the same person he was in the past.
Was I like this before?
Would I have considered so much in the past?
Every time he thought of this, he would console himself that this was the price of growth.
It wasn't easy to get to this point. It wasn't easy to get to where he was today. He had sacrificed too much …
But when he thought about it again, did God give him a chance to be reborn just to keep him busy with work?
Just so he could open supermarkets all over the world?
No matter how much money he had, would he be able to spend it all?
For the so-called status, for the so-called influence, for the so-called face, he had to hold it in, endure, and make a choice.
Because if he didn't do so, it would have an impact on his social status, a very bad impact.
Once upon a time, he actually thought so much. He actually thought about the public's perception, and he actually wronged himself for others.
Li Dong suddenly felt that it was a little ridiculous. Is this what I want?
Is this what I'm fighting for?
The success of his career, the expansion of his reputation, and the rise of his status had bound his hands and feet.
He always felt that he had to give the public and others an explanation. Because he was Li Dong, he was the richest man in the world, he was the number one entrepreneur in the private sector, he was the world's most outstanding young talent …
But, who was he living for?
Shouldn't he only think about himself?
Those 200,000 employees, thousands of stores, hundreds of billions of wealth, at this moment, had become a burden, a restraint.
That's not what I want!
The rain was getting heavier.
Tan Yong walked over again with an umbrella. Li Dong pushed him away and shook his head, "No, let me think about it."
Tan Yong didn't know what his boss was thinking, but he knew that it was best not to disturb Li Dong at this time.
But seeing the rain soaking Li Dong's clothes, Tan Yong couldn't help but show a hint of worry in his eyes.
He couldn't help but look up. Looking at the only lit floor, Tan Yong sighed in his heart, "I wonder if Miss Yuan has seen it."
…
Upstairs.
Beside the window.
Yuan Xue stared downstairs. In the dim light, she could vaguely see two figures.
Outside, it was already raining.
Yuan Xue's aunt put on a coat and walked over to take a look. She said softly, "Ah Xue, are they your friends?"
Yuan Xue nodded lightly and didn't say anything.
"Do you want to ask them to come up and sit for a while? It's raining. Have a cup of hot water … "
Yuan Xue shook her head and said softly, "Don't bother, Aunt. You go to sleep. I'll go to sleep in a while."
"Sigh!"
Yuan Xue's aunt sighed and looked downstairs again. After a while, she said, "Are you at loggerheads? Your mother called me a few days ago and said that she introduced you to a good man. You don't like him, so you probably have a boyfriend. Is it that young man downstairs? "
Yuan Xue didn't say anything. She was a little distracted, and no one knew what she was thinking.
At this time, there was a sudden "clang" from downstairs.
In the quiet night, the sound was especially loud.
Yuan Xue's aunt couldn't help but look downstairs. She vaguely saw a man kicking a trash can under the streetlight.
At this moment, Yuan Xue's aunt couldn't help but frown. She couldn't help but say, "Ah Xue, think about it. This kind of man …"
Before she finished, there was a sudden roar from downstairs.
…
Downstairs, Tan Yong was also shocked.
Originally, Li Dong was thinking. Although he was worried, he didn't want to disturb him.
However, after waiting for a while, Li Dong suddenly kicked the trash can. The sudden sound almost made him jump out of his seat.
When he saw that it was Li Dong who kicked it, Tan Yong let down his guard.
Before he could react, he heard Li Dong mutter something. Then, he raised his head and shouted, "Yuan Xue, come down!"
"Isn't it just a walk in the rain? Come on, Brother Dong will accompany you in romance! Sentimental my ass. Whatever you want, Brother Dong will satisfy you! "
"Why don't we elope? Brother Dong has never been afraid of anyone! Elope together. I won't wait for anyone else! Come down. If you don't come down, I'm going up! "
"…"
Tan Yong was stunned. Was the boss crazy?
The boss was really crazy!
If he wasn't crazy, what nonsense was he talking about now?
Did the boss drink in the middle of the night?
But he remembered that he didn't drink.
Tan Yong was dumbfounded. He didn't know if he should pull Li Dong back. He didn't know if he should gag him and send him to the hospital as soon as possible.
If this went on, people would know that Li Dong was crazy. Li Dong, who had been quiet for a month, would soon become a national celebrity.
Before Tan Yong could make a decision, and before Yuan Xue could react.
The residential building was lit up.
Someone said angrily, "Are you crazy? I have to work the morning shift tomorrow. Is there shit in my head? "
"F * ck off! If you don't like it, come down and beat me. I have hundreds of brothers. If you come down, I promise I'll beat the sh * t out of you! I'm calling my wife. It's none of your business! "
Li Dong waved his hands and shouted arrogantly. Then he shouted, "Yuan Xue, come down. If you don't come down, I'll call someone to tear down the building!"
Upstairs, it instantly quieted down. The previous clamor disappeared.
The person who scolded just now was being hugged by his wife and dragged back. He didn't dare to continue scolding him.
These days, young people were all crazy. If they really went upstairs and made a scene, who would suffer in the end?
Tan Yong was completely flustered. What should I do?
What can I do?
Boss … Don't tell me he's really agitated?
…
Upstairs.
Yuan Xue had already lost her ability to think. Her eyes were a little unfocused. This guy … must be crazy!
Does he know what he's doing?
Did he even know who he really was?
Once people find out, isn't he afraid of losing his reputation?
And Yuan Xue's aunt was so angry that her face was pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "Little gangster!
You're a ruffian!
Ah Xue, how do you know such a person? Stop it!
The people living upstairs and downstairs are all neighbors. If this gets out, how do you think our family will go out and meet people?
Ah Xue, it's not that I want to scold you, but this kind of person, you …
I don't want to say anything. If your parents know about this, they'll be furious!
You're a university student from a prestigious school. How … how do you know such a scum! "
Yuan Xue's aunt was so angry that she closed the window as she scolded. She was afraid that people would know that the shameless guy downstairs was looking for her house.
When she looked back, she saw that her niece seemed to be going downstairs. Yuan Xue's aunt was so angry that her face turned pale. She quickly shouted, "Ah Xue, don't go down! If he wants to make a scene, let him make a scene. What nonsense is he spouting! Tear down the building? Let him tear it down. It's the middle of the night. You still care about this crazy person! If I knew you were with him, I would have tried to persuade you. Our Yuan family's previous generations … "
Before she could finish, Yuan Xue had already opened the door and said, "Aunt, I'll be right back!"
"Ah Xue! Ah Xue, don't go! "
"Ah Xue!"
"…"
Yuan Xue's aunt shouted a few words. When her voice echoed in the corridor, Yuan Xue's aunt's face turned pale. She quickly stopped talking and could only watch as her niece ran downstairs like a madman.
She stomped her feet angrily. When she heard the crazy person's roar outside the window, Yuan Xue's aunt could not help but rush to the window and roar, "Crazy!"
…
Downstairs, Li Dong shouted a few words.
When he heard someone scolding him upstairs, he immediately raised his head and roared, "Old woman, I'm crazy. Go downstairs now. I'll get someone to tear down the building later!"
"You little hooligan, come and tear it down, come and tear it down!" Yuan Xue's aunt was so angry that she roared again.
Li Dong shouted, "Then just you wait, old woman. Don't be so arrogant. I'm crazy now. Don't provoke me!"
"Get lost!"
"You're still going against me? Just you wait …"
"Shut up!"
Before Li Dong's voice died away, a sudden roar came from the side.
Then Yuan Xue went crazy and punched him in the chest. She said angrily, "What's wrong with you!"
Li Dong said embarrassedly, "I'm not crazy!
I just thought it through. Why should I choose? Brother Dong is rich. Tomorrow, I'll buy a small island abroad and spend money to transform it.
Later, I'll bring you all over. I can marry as many times as I want!
I can marry a country once, a few hundred times. Who can do anything to me!
Didn't you say you were waiting for me to find you when it rained?
Now it's raining, I'll walk in the rain with you!
When it snows, I'll continue to walk in the snow with you. I'll give you whatever you want!
Tell me, don't you think I'm living more clearly now? I'm more in line with your image of Mr. Right? "
Yuan Xue wanted to cry but had no tears. She punched his chest hard and said, "You're crazy now! Do you know what you're doing! "
"I know. It's nothing as long as I don't starve to death! As long as you're willing, I don't care! In the end, the so-called great ambition of hegemony is just an empty dream. If I can't love the country and not the beauty, then screw the country! "
Li Dong spoke passionately, spittle flying everywhere. At this moment, he was feeling extremely good!
"I'm so willful!
What does the others have to do with me? Why should I care about their lives?
I have money. Even if I can't transfer all of it, a part of it will be enough for me to live freely for the rest of my life.
Why do I have to be like this now, thinking about all these things. I'm making myself feel bad and making others feel bad too.
I'm suffering for others. Am I that stupid?
After saying this, Li Dong suddenly felt a lot taller. He looked at Yuan Xue affectionately and said slowly, "For you, I can give up everything!"
Yuan Xue stared at him for a long time. After a long time, she broke down and said, "I'm not talking about that! You idiot, you're scolding my aunt just now! I want you to be a ruffian, not a local ruffian. You're a blockhead, a fool, an idiot in love … "
As she scolded, Yuan Xue pounded his chest.
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. After a while, he said embarrassedly, "I didn't do it just now. It was Old Tan. Don't tell your aunt that it was me. Are you still strolling in the rain? "
"Strolling, my foot!"
Yuan Xue was angry and amused at the same time. In the end, she said with a tired face, "Get lost. Forget everything that happened tonight, from beginning to end! Also, don't think that I'll really fall for it just because you're pretending to be crazy. I won't! If you have the guts, you can do the same with Qin Yuhan and the rest. You're bullying me, and you only know how to bully me. You've been bullying me since the past until now! "
Li Dong said aggrievedly, "I'm not pretending to be crazy. I'm serious! Tell me now that you're willing to elope with me. I'll start making arrangements immediately. Don't worry about Yuhan and the rest. I'll teach them a lesson. Our family will go overseas to be island owners … "
"Who's going to be your family?!"
Yuan Xue was completely powerless. She pushed him and said angrily, "Get lost. Get lost. I don't want to see you again!"
"Are you serious?"
"I'm serious!"
Li Dong's serious expression made Yuan Xue a little flustered.
Suddenly, Li Dong squatted down and rolled on the wet ground. Then, he shouted, "Brother Dong, you're shameless. Give me a definite answer. Do you agree or not? If you don't, I'll get lost!"
The next moment, the whole world fell silent!
Everyone, including Yuan Xue's aunt who was peeping upstairs, was dumbfounded. Where the f * ck did this rascal come from?
