After the Chinese New Year, the shops in the commercial market have opened one after another. The government vigorously develops new commercial and trade markets, demolished an old market in the old city, and demolished all the merchants.
As the shops began to open one after another, the number of customers also increased. Many customers who originally bought goods in the old market have moved over. The location of Chen Yuncheng's store is good, and many new customers will come to ask for prices every day.
Chen Yuncheng's personality is easy-going and generous, and he can chat with anyone. He delegates the delivery work to Guan Anlin as much as possible, and spends most of his time in the store. He can also chat with people enthusiastically. There are also customers who drive to the market to pick up the goods. No matter if they buy more or less, he will take the initiative to help move the goods.
Seeing that the business is getting better, Sun Shiliang promised to give Chen Yuncheng a sales commission, and his income is also increasing. He owed Ning Junyan the hundreds of thousands of dollars. He used to think that it was a long way off, but now he feels that he can see the end.
The mood gradually eased, and what Chen Yuncheng was most concerned about was the matter between him and Ning Junyan.
Since Ning Junyan left him that night, he hadn't come to him for a long time, but what Ning Junyan said was always in Chen Yuncheng's heart.
Chen Yuncheng then called to ask Ning Junyan if his head still hurt.
Ning Junyan was lying on the bed and said to him, "Sometimes."
Chen Yuncheng was very worried and said, "Go and have a look and do an inspection."
Ning Junyan said, "I've had an examination, and it's just a nervous headache. It can't be cured."
Chen Yuncheng said, "I'll come and see you."
Ning Junyan did not agree immediately, but asked, "Have you made up your mind?"
Chen Yuncheng was sitting on the steps in front of the store, his down jacket had been replaced with a thick quilted jacket. He looked at the people and cars passing by in front of him from time to time, and said, "Can't we date like ordinary couples?" After saying this, Chen Yuncheng himself felt embarrassed.
Ning Junyan asked him, "How do ordinary couples date?"
"Eating and watching a movie?" Chen Yuncheng wasn't quite sure, anyway, it was all played like that in TV dramas, and he didn't know what else to do.
Ning Junyan said, "Will you invite me to dinner and watch a movie?"
Chen Yuncheng raised his hand and scratched his cheek lightly. He always felt a little itchy and said, "Is it okay?"
Ning Junyan asked again, "Are you pursuing me?"
Chen Yuncheng was stunned by the question, he thought they were already together, but since Ning Junyan asked this, he chose to admit it embarrassedly: "Is it okay?"
Ning Junyan said, "That's not enough, we have to open a room."
"Ah?" Chen Yuncheng was a little surprised, "Did you open a room on the first date?"
Ning Junyan said, "If you don't have to move out, do you need to open a room outside? I could have slept with you every day."
For a moment, Chen Yuncheng felt as if he was sorry for Ning Junyan. He thought of opening a room with Ning Junyan, and he couldn't help blushing and heartbeat, and said, "Well, when will you have time?"
Ning Junyan told him, "Tomorrow night."
Chen Yuncheng said: "I will arrange it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Anlin drove the van back from the outside to deliver the goods and stopped at the door of the store.
Chen Yuncheng hung up the phone, raised his head and watched Guan Anlin get off the car.
Guan Anlin had already taken off his jacket and wore only a thin long-sleeved T-shirt. He walked to Chen Yuncheng and sat down, lit a cigarette for himself, and said, "Let's hire someone else." Try to help customers move the goods, so that the workload becomes larger and the efficiency becomes lower.
Of course the client is happy.
It's just that Guan Anlin was physically exhausted, and every day he came back, he was extremely tired.
"It's hard work," Chen Yuncheng said to him, "I'll discuss it with Brother Sun, and then hire someone to help deliver the goods."
Guan Anlin felt relieved after sitting and smoking a whole cigarette. Chen Yuncheng took off his jacket from the car and told him to put it on.
"Let's go out to eat something good tonight," Guan Anlin said to Chen Yuncheng. He has also had a lot of money in his hands recently. Naturally, it was because Chen Yuncheng was very generous to him and was willing to give him wages.
Chen Yuncheng shook his head. Every meal they eat is very simple. There is a ten-yuan box lunch at the door of the market. The price is cheap and the oil and water are abundant. It is suitable for people who do manual work. Chen Yuncheng and Guan Anlin eat there almost every day.
Guan Anlin wanted to improve the food after he got the money.
As a result, Chen Yuncheng still refused. He wanted to save money and give it back to Ning Junyan, and he also had to pay for the date with Ning Junyan. He was reluctant to let Ning Junyan eat too badly, and he couldn't open a hotel that was too cheap.
In the evening, Chen Yuncheng lay on the bed, used his mobile phone to search for places to eat, looked for nearby hotels, and had to book movie tickets.
This was the first time he had bothered to do this kind of thing. In the past, it was a roadside restaurant to invite people to dinner, and a few dishes and two bottles of beer would solve it.
Guan Anlin came out of the shower, glanced at him before climbing into the bed, and saw him looking at the hotel, a little puzzled, and asked him as he went to bed, "Why are you looking at the hotel?"
Chen Yuncheng said, "Tomorrow night, I will invite someone out for dinner and I won't come back."
Guan Anlin was sitting on the upper bunk bed, and when he heard his words, he immediately had a bad association, and tried his best to put his head down, "You and the one surnamed Ning?"
Chen Yuncheng replied casually, "Ah."
Guan Anlin was a little nervous, "You two are still together? What are you doing at the hotel?"
Chen Yuncheng did not speak.
Guan Anlin said, "You want to open a room with him?"
Chen Yuncheng stretched out his hand and pulled up the quilt next to him, covering his entire head inside, not wanting to answer his question.
Guan Anlin was terrified: "Are you going to let him play with your ass?"
Chen Yuncheng stretched out his hand from the quilt and grabbed a remote control that was placed beside the bed, and threw it to the upper bunk with all his strength, regardless of whether he could hit Guan Anlin or not, he cursed: "Die!"
The next day, Guan Anlin tried to prevent Chen Yuncheng from going on a date with Ning Junyan at night.
However, Chen Yuncheng had no intention of paying attention to him at all, and kept thinking about what step he should take with Ning Junyan since he had already agreed to open a house.
His entangled feelings in the past have not completely disappeared, but compared to the previous period when he lived in Ning Junyan's house without a job, now he is much calmer, and sometimes he even feels that he can look forward to his future life. . The sense of security he lacks is something no one can give him, only he can give it to himself.
Today is Friday, and in the afternoon there is no business in the store, and the entire commercial market is deserted.
Chen Yuncheng squatted in front of the store, looking at his phone all the time.
Guan Anlin took a bottle of Coke, walked to him and squatted down, trying to check his phone.
Chen Yuncheng immediately locked the screen.
Guan Anlin was very worried and asked him, "What are you looking at?"
Chen Yuncheng said, "Don't worry about it."
Guan Anlin whispered while drinking Coke, "Be careful of getting sick."
Chen Yuncheng suddenly said angrily: "Be careful when you go whoring!"
His voice got a little louder, and Wu Xiaozhu, who was sitting in the store, stared at them dumbfounded. After a while, his eyes on Guan Anlin changed.
Guan Anlin was very unhappy, and he didn't pay much attention to him after that. When Chen Yuncheng was about to leave, he asked again, "Really not coming back?"
Chen Yuncheng said, "leave me alone, lock the door at night and sleep."
Guan Anlin hesitated to speak, but finally watched Chen Yuncheng irritably leave.
Chen Yuncheng went out to take a taxi, and was sitting in the taxi when he saw Guan Anlin sent him a photo of a young girl in a high school uniform, and then sent a line: "My sister."
He couldn't help but smiled, but without replying to Guan Anlin, he put the phone back.
The restaurants and movie tickets for dinner in the evening were all set by Chen Yuncheng, and they were selected in the large shopping mall in the city center.
Although he has lived in this city for so many years, Chen Yuncheng seldom comes to such places. Whether it is entertainment consumption or shopping, this place is not suitable for him.
When he was waiting for Ning Junyan on the first floor of the shopping mall, he saw many young girls dressed in exquisite clothes, as if watching an idol drama, out of tune with his world.
Then someone covered his eyes with his hands from behind, and Ning Junyan's voice sounded in his ear, asking him, "Have you seen enough?"
Chen Yuncheng turned around, "Are you here?"
Ning Junyan's eyes still looked at the girl in the short skirt with stockings in front of her, and asked Chen Yuncheng, "What are you looking at?"
Chen Yuncheng said, "I didn't see anything, I've been waiting for you."
Ning Junyan said coldly, "I'll change the place next time."
