It's still the same crowded hut.
With an intoxicated expression, Jiang Chen took a deep breath, but then he realized with a wry smile that he had taken a breath of dust.
Because it had not been occupied for so long, the bed was covered with dust. Looking around the apartment where he had lived for two years, he suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia in his heart.
Smiling and shaking his head, he shook this inexplicable feeling out of his mind.
Maybe, it's time to say goodbye...
Jiang Chen took out his mobile phone and dialed the landlord's number. He moved the phone two feet away from his ear as if he had expected it.
"...Hello? Jiang Chen! That house, if you want to continue renting it, please pay me the money for the second half of the year! Let me tell you, if you don't rent this house, many people will rent it. If it weren't for you You are working hard alone in Wanghai at a young age and have no one to rely on. I have thrown your things out a long time ago! His grandmother, no one answered your phone calls for several days, and you have no money and you disappear while playing... "Wu Jie cursed and yelled through the phone, as if Jiang Chen was convinced.
Of course, if it was half a month ago, he might have really been able to eat Jiang Chen to death. But now...
"You can rent the house to someone else." Jiang Chen said calmly.
"What? What did you say?" The tone on the phone was full of surprise. To be honest, Wu Jie really didn't expect Jiang Chen to be so stubborn and simply said that he wouldn't rent it if he didn't want to.
Not renting? If you don't rent my room, where will you live
"If you scream like a brat, I will keep you from opening your mouth for the rest of your life." Jiang Chen's tone was so calm and soft that the landlord couldn't hear any fluctuations in his mood.
But that chill was like a poisonous snake crawling into the heart of Wu Jie, who was about to curse angrily. So much so that the words came to his lips, but it was like cotton was stuffed in his throat, and no sound came out for a long time.
Jiang Chen didn't bother to talk to such a contemptuous person and hung up the phone directly. Although the landlord had given him a lot of looks before, at this moment he had no desire to care about it. After all, if a dog barks at you every day, you can't lie down and bark back at him, right
It's a waste of time and moral integrity.
Of course, if this dog was too shameless, Jiang Chen wouldn't mind going up and giving him a slap. It's your freedom to scold or not, but it's my freedom to hit you or not.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen's cell phone beeped with a series of text message tones, and the screen was filled with caller IDs of missed calls. Because he was still in the apocalypse not long ago, these text messages naturally could not reach his mobile phone.
His fingers slid across the screen, and in addition to the call from the landlord, there was also a call from Xia Shiyu. I guess this little girl should be impatient. The chairman of the board suddenly disappeared for so many days without leaving any news.
Jiang Chen smiled, but suddenly his fingers trembled.
Those were calls from home, and there were more than a dozen of them.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen's eyes couldn't help but be filled with mist.
Maybe... it's time to take some time to go back and take a look
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the sadness of being away from home for many years, Jiang Chen dialed the familiar number.
"Hello? Mom, it's me..."
"Chen'er, you've called me. You've made your dad very anxious these days," a familiar and excited voice came from the other end of the phone, "Old man, Chen'er called back!"
"Mom, don't call me that name, it's too girly..." A smile flashed across Jiang Chen's face, and he stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes.
"Why are you not a sissy? Why are you talking to your mother? This boy, his wings have grown hard, haven't he!" When he heard the strong and angry voice coming from the other end of the phone, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a wave of excitement in his heart. Comfortable.
It seems that both parents are in good health...
This also made Jiang Chen, who had not been home to accompany them for a long time, feel a little less guilty.
Worried that he would not make a name for himself outside and disappoint his parents who hoped to have a successful son, Jiang Chen used work as a shield time and time again to avoid going back. Even though it was Chinese New Year, I excused myself because I had to work overtime at work.
Although he also knows that even if he has no future, his parents will still warmly accept him and happily welcome him into the house. But he couldn't accept it calmly...
But now, those worries have disappeared... Dad, Mom, your son has a future.
Jiang Chen's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, listening to the nagging and warnings, and responded to the warnings with a smile.
"...Son, you have worked hard outside. If you have enough money, don't tire yourself out. You are now at the beginning of your career. If you are short of money, tell your mother. She still has some savings."
"Your little money is not enough. The key issue for my son now is to buy a house! If there is no house, which girl's family will like you now... Son, it's okay to be tired. We are men and can bear it! Your parents still have some savings. , you can see if you can find a house in Wanghai City, and pay the down payment first. Once you have a house, you can bring a daughter-in-law back to your parents. Your parents are still waiting to have a grandson. "
"No, parents, your son is now promising. I have opened a company in Wanghai City, and others are already working for me. I will take care of the house myself, so don't worry about it! Pay more attention to your health ", don't always think about saving money! Spend what you should spend, and if it's not enough, I'll give it to you..." Jiang Chen rubbed the corners of his eyes and said with a smile.
"Your kid is educating me, huh? Haha, wife, our son is going to be promising! Haha..." The voice on the other end of the phone was full of excitement.
"What? Chen'er, are you doing business outside? You must be careful not to be deceived by others! Let me tell you, I have been watching the news recently! A lot of people are doing business outside..." There are still concerns and worries.
"Don't worry, my son is much smarter than you." Jiang Jianguo said with a laugh. When he heard that his son was going to be successful, the joy in his heart was even greater than winning the lottery.
After dinner, I could brag with the old men at the door. Our college student opened a company in Wanghai City and asked others to work for him! This is good, and the daughter-in-law's affairs will be easier to handle. Who doesn't want to marry in a big city? Aren’t the daughters of the old Liu family across the street not suitable for each other? There is also the old Xia from the front building, the old Zhang from the property management department...
"Your son is not my son yet!" Li Xuemei glared at her wife fiercely.
... ...
Listening to the familiar bickering on the other end of the phone, Jiang Chen raised his left hand and once again secretly wiped the slightly astringent corners of his eyes.
This is what home feels like, but he has always chosen to avoid it.
It has nothing to do with wealth or poverty. The purest emotion in the world is family love.
Maybe, it’s time to find time to go back and take a look around? How does that sentence come about... Yes, wealth and honor will not return to the hometown, but will travel at night like fine clothes.
Thinking about it, a smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.

After talking to his parents on the phone, he lay back on the bed, ignoring the dust that filled the room.
We are about to move from here... Thinking of this, Jiang Chen still felt a little melancholy and wanted to lie on this piece of cotton wool for a while longer.
500 million US dollars, which is more than 3 billion yuan.
Jiang Chen didn't know the specific exchange rate, but he roughly estimated it to be this number.
What kind of villa should I buy
He had never thought about it before. After all, let alone a villa, a month ago, even a house of more than fifty square meters was something Jiang Chen couldn't even imagine.
But of course these are no longer a problem now.
Can’t figure it out alone? It doesn't matter, the two of them think together.
Jiang Chen raised the phone again, but Jiang Chen's fingers were indeed frozen...
Who should I call
Suddenly realizing that he seemed to have few friends in this city, the expression on his face began to become a little subtle, and he couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
never mind.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen sighed and dialed Xia Shiyu's number. He had to call her anyway, so he just wanted to consult her.
-

Xia Shiyu, who was worried about Jiang Chen's whereabouts, suddenly felt a shock in her pocket. After being stunned for a moment, she immediately took out the Missed Call 5 message on the screen. When she saw the familiar name, she laughed angrily.
"Hello? Did I hear you correctly? The chairman of our company actually called me back." The voice was not cold at all, at least Jiang Chen heard a noise like gnashing of teeth.
"Ahem, I've been busy with business recently, so I won't talk about this anymore..." Jiang Chen shamelessly chose to change the topic directly.
"Oh? What kind of business requires the mobile phone to be turned off? Do you know that the company is in its infancy now? Recruiting personnel? The development direction of the company? Is this your company or mine... "
The words on the other end of the phone were speaking so fast that he couldn't help but smile bitterly and move the phone a few inches away. The little girl Xia Shiyu reacted so strongly to his disappearance, which was really beyond his expectation.
But business matters.
"... Can you accompany me to see the next room?"
"..." Xia Shiyu hung up the phone.
Within two seconds, the phone rang again.
Holding back the nameless anger in her heart, Xia Shiyu took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to hang up Jiang Chen's call.
"Ahem, don't hang up on me. What I said is true! Make time another day..."
"What does your house purchase have to do with me?" Xia Shiyu said coldly, her chest rising and falling violently. Jiang Chen's playful and smiling attitude made her, who had been worried about his whereabouts these days, feel a little humiliated.
Yes, it's humiliation.
It's like you've been busy for a long time, but others don't take your efforts seriously at all.
"Of course it doesn't matter... You can come and play if you have nothing to do." However, Jiang Chen, who was on the other side of the phone, couldn't tell what Xia Shiyu's expression was, and he still said with a smile.
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Xia Shiyu was stunned.
Huh? ... She touched her forehead in confusion, feeling the unnatural heat coming from her hands.
No fever... strange
"Hey, are you listening? I said, I have already taken care of the mobile game development... It is better to say that it has been developed than done. What needs to be done next? It's talent recruitment for server maintenance. Of course, you should know better than me what kind of personnel to recruit, so I'll leave it to you. But if you need me to accompany you to the job fair, I don't mind, hehe... . .. The premise is that you accompany me to see the house.”
"Okay." Xia Shiyu agreed without much thought. She herself felt a little surprised when she found out that she had agreed so decisively to this completely illogical request.
It must be because of work...
If you don't agree to his boring request, he will definitely disappear again.
Yeah, that's right, it's for work...
After hanging up the phone, Xia Shiyu rubbed her tired temples and explained to herself. Although, she felt that "explaining to herself" was a bit unnecessary.

-
Done!
Jiang Chen stretched and threw his phone aside.
Girls are attentive, so you can choose a house tastefully if you take a girl with you. Although he likes to pretend and is narcissistic, he is still very self-aware. For example, he never believed in his own taste. Just listening to the deceptions of those developers made Jiang Chen feel unsure.
As for whether you are interested in that girl Xia Shiyu? To be honest, he really didn't think about it that way.
But when he picked up the phone, the only person he could think of calling to discuss this matter in this city was this former female boss... Oh no, now he should be called a female subordinate, Ha ha ha ha...
If you want to buy a house, you will naturally need money. Jiang Chen's storage space is filled with gold. Although it is worth more than 500 million US dollars, you can't just buy a house with a few dollars of gold, right
Jiang Chen picked up the phone that he had thrown aside again and dialed an international long distance number.
However, Jiang Chen, who put the phone to his ear, frowned slightly.
