Lin Keer suddenly looked a little panicked, covering the phone and turning aside, "I was just playing outside and didn't hear you!"
"Playing!? You haven't paid for this month's living expenses so far, you still have the nerve to play!?"
Lin Keer tried her best to cover the microphone, but it was so quiet in the car that Xiao Zhuo heard everything clearly.
"Mom! I'll find a job right away, and I'll send you money in a week!"
"A week? Do you want to starve us to death? No! We must pay within three days!"
Lin Keer frowned, "Okay! Okay! I understand!"
He quickly hung up the phone and looked at Xiao Zhuo with an awkward expression.
"Is your mother in trouble?"
Lin Keer nodded, then quickly shook his head.
Xiao Zhuo was a little surprised. Is it there or not?
"Then is your mother in poor health?"
"I'm a doctor and can help her take a look."
In his opinion, such families often become poor due to illness, so they point to Lin Keer to make money alone.
"No! She's in good health!"
"Then she is older?"
"Just in his early 40s."
"Then why don't you go to work and earn money?" Xiao Zhuo asked doubtfully.
"I'm actually an orphan. I was adopted and raised by her since I was a child. She said it's time for me to repay her kindness!"
"Since I started working, I have given her living expenses every month, but my younger brother is getting married recently, and she asked me to give him 300,000 yuan as a gift. I don't have a job now, so I can't afford so much money!" Lin Keer said.
.
"Isn't your brother working?"
"I opened a breakfast shop before, but then I felt too tired and couldn't get up, so I quit. I just played games at home and did nothing."
Depend on!
waste!
Xiao Zhuo cursed secretly in his heart.
"A young man is so useless, do your parents just turn a blind eye?" Xiao Zhuo said in surprise.
"My adoptive father passed away early, and my mother felt sorry for my brother, so she didn't force him to work."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but feel a little angry. This mother was too partial. She was indeed a stepmother!
Lin Keer sighed, "No matter what, she raised me, and I should be filial to her!"
"You should be filial to your mother, but you can't support this brother for the rest of his life, right? You have no such obligation."
Lin Keer said nothing again, because her mother wanted her to get married immediately, and there was only one condition, that is, she must have money.
Because of this, mother and son can follow suit.
Seeing Lin Ke'er's face full of sadness, Xiao Zhuo took out a card and stuffed it into her hand.
"There are 100,000 yuan here, you take it first and use it! If it's not enough, tell me again!"
Lin Keer quickly pushed the card back, "No! How can I ask for your money!"
"This money is lent to you. I will pay it back to you when you have money!"
Xiao Zhuo could see that she was a woman with strong self-esteem, so she said this.
"Okay then! I will pay you back as soon as I find a job!" Lin Keer said gratefully.
Xiao Zhuo smiled and nodded.
"No rush!"
The car came to a dark shantytown. Because the road was narrow, it couldn't be driven on, so we had to get out of the car.
"Just send it here, thank you! Xiao Zhuo!"
Looking at the dark alley, Xiao Zhuo felt a little worried, "I'll take you home!"
"No need, we'll reach the rental house not far ahead."
"No! You are a girl walking a dark road at night. If there are evil people in front of you, you will be in danger! Since Tingting asked me to be the flower protector, I must send you home safely!"
Although she usually goes back alone, tonight Lin Keer especially wanted to see the man in front of her as a gift, so she nodded.
There were many potholes and water in the alley. Xiao Zhuo followed Lin Keer and used his mobile phone to shine.
"ah!"
Lin Keer's foot slipped and she fell backwards.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Zhuo quickly stepped forward to support her and held her in his arms. Because the alley was too dark, his hands touched places that he shouldn't have touched.
He was so frightened that he immediately shrank back and quickly changed the subject, "Are you okay?"
"No...it's okay!"
Xiao Zhuo didn't know that Lin Keer's cheeks were hot and red to the roots of her ears.
"Yeah! It's okay!"
The brief physical contact just now caused the fire in his heart to flare up. Although Lin Ke'er didn't use perfume, she smelled particularly good, almost like orchid.
He quickly used Xuantian Jue to suppress the evil little flame in his body.
Arriving in front of a dilapidated house, Lin Keer turned around and said with a smile, "I'm here!"
Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but frown. This place was too shabby, even worse than the village in the city where he lived with his mother before.
It's hard to imagine how such a glamorous girl could live here.
"Why don't you live in a better place?" Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but ask.
"There's nothing bad here. Water and electricity are free, and there are no property fees. The most important thing is that it's warm in winter and cool in summer! Besides, it's just a place to sleep." Lin Ke'er said with a smile.
Although she was smiling, Xiao Zhuo could completely feel the pain in her heart at this moment.
Alas, poor woman!
"It's almost 12 o'clock, your mission is completed, go back quickly!"
"I won't invite you to sit in!"
Since Lin Ke'er said this, Xiao Zhuo could only nod.
After walking a few steps, I heard yelling and cursing coming from behind me.
"You bitch is finally back. I'll wait here for you all day. If you don't pay the rent today, you won't be able to move in!"
Xiao Zhuo suddenly turned around and found that the person speaking was a fat woman wearing pajamas and weighing at least 200 kilograms. If it weren't for the two kilograms of fat on her chest, she would have thought she was a man.
"Landlady, please give me two days of grace!" Although I had the bank card given by Xiao Zhuo in my hand, I couldn't withdraw the money to her for a while.
"I believe you, you idiot! It has been delayed for two days. If you don't come up with the money today, get out of here!" the woman said fiercely.
"I..." Lin Ke'er was very embarrassed.
Xiao Zhuo walked up to the woman and asked, "How much does she owe you?"
The woman was startled when a living person jumped out of the house in the middle of the night.
"You...who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I'll pay you the money she owes you. Just tell me the amount!"
The woman held out two fingers and said, "Two thousand yuan, not a penny less!"
Xiao Zhuo took out a pile of small red fish, took out two thousand yuan from it and stuffed it into the woman's hand.
"Is that okay now?"
Looking at the little red fish in front of her, the woman's eyes lit up, "Next month's rent must be paid in advance! I don't want to come to collect debts again!"
"Don't worry, I won't owe you rent! We'll talk about next month's matters next month."
Xiao Zhuo already had a plan in mind to help Lin Keer find a new place to live.
"Fart! I came here five or six times to get this little money. Today you have to pay next month's rent."
The woman said angrily.
"What if I don't want to give it?" Xiao Zhuo said coldly.
"Fuck you, how dare you behave in front of my sister Hong!"
The words just fell.
Snap!
A loud slap in the face.
The woman was knocked to the ground directly.
Swearing people, not mothers, Xiao Zhuo hates people who insult his mother the most, so he will naturally not show mercy.
