"Although your tofu pudding is indeed quite delicious, it's not so charming that it can attract people to come and patronize your business every day."

"It's just that most of the time you're either immersed in writing something, or you're hanging out those low-quality bracelets, and you're not even aware of it."

"Oh, man!"

"..." Zhuo Jiu was speechless for a moment. No, these customers were also arranged by the landlady, right?

"Unexpectedly, these are all arranged by me."

"But I don't actually do a lot. It's probably enough for you to pay the rent for this room and maintain your basic daily expenses. The rest is not arranged by me."

"In this case, it is equivalent to me renting this room to you for free."

"Others..." Zhuo Jiu's face looked a little ugly. Doesn't this mean there are none?

Because he has also taken stock of his daily income: it is basically similar to what the landlady said, it is only enough for his daily expenses and rent. Especially after he rented this room, his daily income has increased significantly...

He did have some doubts at the time, but later he just thought it had a fixed customer base, so he stopped paying attention.

——Someone is willing to give him money, why should he consider why they want to give him money?

As for the beginning of the collapse, after he saved a little money, he suddenly started to set up a stall to sell skewers, which instantly completely cut off his cash flow, which led to his current embarrassment.

To put it bluntly, I did it all by myself...

Ai Tianya also fell silent.

Now that the matter has reached this point, it seems that everything in the early stage has been explained clearly one by one, and it can be regarded as coming to an end for the time being.

Is it a conspiracy? To be precise, it is not a conspiracy. At best, it can only be regarded as an obsession of hers...

"Also, what did she mean by what she said that day? Was it teasing, or what?"

Maybe the drunkenness started to rise again, Zhuo Jiu felt that everything was so ambiguous and inexplicable... Many things seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of fog, and he couldn't even remember that she was saying this that day.

What kind of expression did he have when he was talking?

"Can you not write a book?" "If you don't write a book, how can you support me?"

"I will support you!"

Zhuo Jiu's expression was a little bitter... He knew it was time to show off his cards.

Perhaps what she is about to say next will be the key point and will also be the end of everything.

"You... must have been scared that day!"

The faint voice echoed in the empty room again.

There seemed to be a little hesitation in her tone...Obviously, even she herself hadn't thought clearly about how to speak.

"Actually...it doesn't really mean anything else. I just think...you are a pretty nice person."

"You can try everywhere."

——He is not bad? Is he a "good person card"? It seems, but it is not exact!

"At least all I see are your advantages."

"You are diligent enough, and you are friendly to others most of the time. I admit that all the previous encounters have indeed given you a lot of points... Of course, I haven't met the right person, and it doesn't mean that I want to get married or anything like that."

"I'm just saying, we can try everything, if you think it's okay."

Zhuo Jiu was a little silent, as if something was blocking his heart, and he was extremely angry.

After all, she thought too much and regarded his blackmail and forced rescue as a manifestation of his true nature.

Of course, from her perspective, the truth she saw seemed to be true. And only Zhuo Jiu knew how despicable, fearful, timid and unmotivated he was.

He...is really not a good person.

This is equivalent to Zhuo Jiu using two unintentional things to create a crazy favorable impression of Ai Tianya, and then using some details from the encounter and subsequent interactions to instantly explode this accumulated favorable impression... Just now

This led to a series of events happening tonight.

Is there any chance? It's totally a chance!

In fact, there is a certain degree of chance in every link in the middle, but she has never seen the full picture of the facts, so she regards this chance as inevitable!

When the horizontal line of good feelings shifts, everything he does will be given a positive halo, which causes the weight in her heart to slowly shift until it tilts...

"I don't know how much you listened to what I said tonight...I don't know what you think of me."

"I am more willing to believe that you have concerns in your heart... After all, you will indeed have concerns if you accept such a me."

What she wanted to say was the widow, but facing Zhuo Jiu, she couldn't say anything.

"If, I mean if you are still conscious, can you give me a response?"

Her voice was trembling, and she completely lost her previous calmness... and the expectation, even humility, and prayer in her tone made even Zhuo Jiu feel a little unbearable.

But he didn't dare to raise his head, he could only clenched his fists and continued to lie on the table.

To put it bluntly, he has no sense of security.

He didn't know if Ai Tianya was deceiving him... Her thoughts were so changeable that even Zhuo Jiu couldn't figure it out.

——Although, her words were so sincere.

"All right!"

There was a hint of helplessness and relief in Ai Tianya's words, "Let's each take a step back."

"If you think we can try to make contact, just tap the table three times. If you feel you are still hesitant and want to continue to maintain the status quo... I will not pester you again, just like before.

Same."

Zhuo Jiu could faintly feel the desperation in her words, as if... she was truly wrong.

But Zhuo Jiu knew that he was really not suitable for her.

He has a wandering heart, at least until now he has not found a reason for him to stay peacefully... It's just that the beauty is so affectionate, he can't say no to this.

Ai Tianya was silent, but Zhuo Jiu could feel that her eyes were staring at him.

So intense and full of expectation.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!"

Suddenly, three silent sounds suddenly sounded in the empty room... Zhuo Jiu still didn't raise his head, but he finally showed his attitude with his actual actions.

He agreed.

——After all, it’s just the first step, right! Who knows what the future will bring?

Thinking of this, a relieved smile appeared on Zhuo Jiu's face: he really couldn't bear to let Ai Tianya down again, and more importantly, he also wanted to give himself a chance.

Wandering certainly means freedom, but occasionally he will feel a little tired, and he also wants to find a reason for himself to settle down... Although "Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore" sometimes sounds more like a joke, but let me ask

Who can refuse such a young, beautiful and wealthy aunt?

Of course, at this time, he had no intention of eating soft rice... because he wanted to be a good person.

A truly good person.

Being together does not mean that mistakes will be made. He also wants to make up for everything before... His tact, his cowardice, and his lack of responsibility will disappear forever from this moment on. And in his mind in an instant

Endless thoughts arise.

He was extremely eager to open a book and write a story about Star City, his landlady, and him...

"What's it called?"

"Why don't we call it "This Assistant Has Some Beans"? As for the protagonist's occupation... he's the same as me, selling tofu pudding at a roadside stall, with some gold fingers or something, and that's it!"

Zhuo Jiu became excited for no reason. The problem that had troubled him was instantly solved at this moment, "This book will be popular, otherwise Xisang will eat shit!"

This can also be regarded as a meme of the French fries group, similar to "big and strong".

As for Xisang, the weird guy who had been crazily arranging him in the group before, apart from Da Zhuang who only lives in the mouth of the group friends, he is the only one who still remains fresh in Zhuo Jiu's memory.

"I can't lag behind. I will use my books to get back all the glory I lost."

"Then, stand upright and upright in front of you."

Zhuo Jiu was thinking secretly, but what came to his mind was Ai Tianya's beautiful face. It is said that men are always the first animals to look at. Zhuo Jiu is naturally not immune to this, not to mention that Ai Tianya is still so beautiful.

Beautiful and exciting, it is naturally a high probability event.

But he still didn't dare to raise his head. Although he knew that Ai Tianya was sitting quietly not far away, he still didn't have the courage to face her directly.

"call……"

Ai Tianya took a long breath, "I should be... not dreaming, right?"

Looking at Zhuo Jiu who was still motionless in front of her, she was a little confused. But the three sounds of slamming the table sounded, and she felt that it could not be her imagination.

——The only explanation is that Zhuo Jiu agreed, but didn't think about how to face him.

I don’t know where the love started, but it goes deeper and deeper.

She didn't know when she started to be interested in Zhuo Jiu. Until now, it exploded in an instant... Women have always been emotional. Maybe it was just because of something Zhuo Jiu showed during the relationship that instantly moved her.

.

But that's not important!

At least after telling everything, she got the response she wanted.

At this moment, she felt relieved, and her words were full of relaxation and relief.

"Then...that's it for tonight! I'm going upstairs to rest too. You can just make do with the sofa in the living room, I won't care about you!"

Ai Tianya suddenly felt that her cheeks began to feel hot, perhaps because the alcohol was gradually dissipating. She suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, stood up in a hurry, and left in a hurry.

But when she passed Zhuo Jiu, she stopped again.

She gently leaned down and whispered into his ear: "But, I'm really happy."

The subtle touch made Zhuo Jiu's ears suddenly red and hot, and even he couldn't control it.

"whee!"

All this was obviously seen by Ai Tianya, but she did not expose it. With the sound of brisk footsteps, she left... In the empty restaurant, only the long fragrance remained.

Wanton and flamboyant!

After a long time, Zhuo Jiu slowly raised his head.

He shook his hands vigorously, and the long-term pressure made his arms feel numb. Then he stood up in confusion and looked at everything in front of him, feeling extremely strange.

——It was like having an extremely long dream.

For a moment, he couldn't tell the difference between fantasy and reality. He walked to the sofa in despair and threw himself into the sofa.

I have to say, it's great to have money. Even this seemingly ordinary sofa in the living room is far more comfortable than the hard bed in his rental house.

It's just that at this time, he was extremely awake and not at all sleepy.

Everything that happened before was still vivid in his mind. Although he had been pretending to be dead, his nerves were always tense... He could even picture Ai Tianya's expression in his mind when he said those words.

Or happy, or sad, or desperate...

"Hey... why am I just imagining things here!" Zhuo Jiu covered his eyes, trying to calm himself down... and then took out his cell phone, trying to divert his attention.

"Big, strong and awesome! God of Cooking is awesome!"

Zhuo Jiu was a little stunned as he looked at the messages that were flooding the group's screen... Was this God of Cooking talking about me, or was this Da Zhuang also a cook? He couldn't figure it out.

He hurriedly started to scroll down... He suddenly found that the big man he considered his old enemy appeared, and he also sent a photo of the snow, and openly started to collect money in the group.

But...no one seems to be fooled?

Zhuo Jiu was a little confused. He had no idea what Da Zhuang meant.

Behind his photo, a person named Qingfeng Minyue appeared. Judging from the group chat level, he was obviously a key member of the group.

"It's snowing here too," Qingfeng Minyue said, along with a photo of a cowshed filled with snow.

Zhuo Jiu couldn't help but sigh at the low threshold for online writers. How can a villager who doesn't have a high level of education at first glance write a book?

It must be very eye-catching. You can go and take a look when you have time to see how low the lower limit of the Internet literary world is.

After thinking about it, he put down the phone feebly, feeling sleepy.

It was such a chaotic day...

Fortunately, it's late at night...
