I think only those who are full of hostility in their hearts are always ready to fight the air, such as Li Tongdang.
I angrily put away my sheets, rolled my eyes at him angrily, and asked him angrily, "Your boss doesn't go to work in the middle of the night, so he comes to the roof to be a thief in his spare time?"
"Heh." Li Dangdang's cold snort was very low, but it was cold, innocuous and 100% disdainful, "What do you have to steal?"
"us… "
I really want to help myself, to help me, to defend Meimei and Xiaolang, but the word "poor" is really painful that people can't refute.
We really have nothing to steal.
Although I have increased the manuscript fee, the manuscript fee that has just been raised this month will not be settled until the next month, and the cash withdrawal can only be realized next month.
Last month I lent Meimei the manuscript fee, I was lazy last month and didn’t draw much, this month I cashed out 3,500 yuan, and used 1,500 yuan to repay Li Dangdang’s one-month rent, and I still owe him two months’ rent. For the rent money, I kept a thousand for living expenses, and another thousand to help Wei Wuchang pay the rent...
Yes, in such a poor situation, I also helped him pay the rent...
When Wei Wuchang said he would live here, I never imagined that he would stay here for so long.
Even Wei Wuchang didn't expect it himself, he thought he would find the time traveler soon, but he searched hard for a month to no avail...
Ever since the old man in our building showed up and handed me a gift of "unbelievable love", he disappeared without a trace along with the news he had, and he didn't know where he went. So Wei Wuchang didn't run into him either.
Last month, as a very responsible general, Wei Wuchang couldn’t bear his own idleness, owed me money and favors, and was ridiculed in 360 degrees by Li Peipei... Finally, with the help of the Chongqing Non-Human Committee Association Next, he got the national identity card of the People's Republic of China, and he went out to find a job for himself.
This former general and today's zombie king, using his excellent military qualities, resolute character, long-term vision, and strong physique, seized the opportunity, bravely challenged, defeated himself, and finally...
Worked as a security guard in a high-end mall.
What you face every day is no longer enemies with knives, but all kinds of fairies who come with bags, and the clatter of horseshoes in your ears has become the sound of high heels tapping.
When Wei Wuchang came to promise me that he would pay me back as soon as he was paid, I quietly asked him what he thought about this job, and I got an extremely serious answer:
"A shopping mall is like a battlefield. Security work is not as easy as going to battle to kill the enemy. There are dangers everywhere in the shopping mall. Under the peaceful surface of everyone is an unfathomable human heart. The danger lies in the calm. Every customer may be a potential threat. I need to be on the alert for the most dire contingencies."
"So you treat every guest as a threat? Ready to kill anytime?"
"Yes, it must be so to ensure the greatest safety of the mall."
The biggest threat to the mall is probably you!
Of course, I didn't express my inner thoughts at that time. I was silent for a long time, but I just felt in my heart that I don't really want to go to shopping malls with Wei Wuchang in the future. After all... the feeling of having a security guard in the dark watching you as the number one target all the time... is not a good feeling.
Long story short, the money Wei Wuchang owes me will not be repaid until next month at the earliest, and the money Meimei owes me... I won't talk about it. So in the face of Li Dangdang's ridicule about my money, I am powerless to refute.
I collected my clothes silently, and was about to leave when Li Dangdang stopped me again.
"Yu Meimei still running recently?"
"yes."
"Let her go out less recently."
I was aroused curiosity: "What's wrong?"
"The mermaid I talked about last time has a new movement after two months of silence."
I thought of that blurry photo, the person in the photo had exactly the same face as Ash. I hugged the sheets tightly: "What's the matter? Did you come to see Meimei? What does he want to do?"
Li Dangdang stood by the railing on the roof, looking down. His eyes narrowed slightly: "Who knows."
I saw that he had a strange expression, and moved to his side with the bed sheet in his arms. Looking down, there were houses that had been demolished all around, and there was only a huge yellow jue tree that had grown for an unknown number of years. On the dilapidated stairs of the dilapidated apartment, the roots of the trees are entangled, twisting and crisscrossing, rising up, and the cement on the stairs has long been propped up and crowded into a mess. But also because it grows in the place where the road is, many places on the roots of the tree have been stepped on very smooth, as if they have been smeared with oil.
But at this time, when the leaves of the Juice tree are falling and new buds are growing, and the new and old leaves are alternating, the branches are intertwined into a net. Under the net of branches, there is a bright red dot flickering on and off.
From my life experience, it should be someone smoking under a tree.
I frowned and looked carefully.
But when I poked my head out, the little spot of light disappeared.
"Did you see who's there?" I turned around and asked Li Dangdang.
Li Dangdang glanced at me: "You are a poor, human being." He emphasized these two words, "If you are a little smart, you should know what you are going to do?"
I was indifferent: "Oh, what am I going to do?"
"Do more work and less mind your own business."
"..." I took a deep breath, "I'm going back to work, bye landlord."
"besides."
"What?"
Li Dangdang turned his head and looked at me for a while. I didn't know why he was silent, but in the end he uttered a sentence: "Although the weather is hot, the air conditioner should not be turned too low."
I couldn't believe it: "I pay for the electricity myself! You also have to take care of this?"
Li Dangdang looked at me, and the corners of his mouth moved. I thought he seemed to want to curse, but he held back in the end, and just said indifferently: "I'm afraid your host will overheat and burn the house down."
"Then it should be your fault that the quality of the air conditioner you bought is not good enough!"
Li Dangdang glanced at me coldly, apparently not wanting to talk to me anymore, turned around and jumped off the stairs. I murmured and scolded him for being inexplicable, and I didn't bother to think about him any more. While thinking about the mermaid in the photo, I hugged the bed sheet back.
When I got home, I tidied up the sheets, and when I turned on my phone, I saw that Jijijiang had sent me a few messages.
"Xiaoxin, Xiaoxin, go to your comment area to have a look."
"Today, someone on Weibo recommended your manga, and your comment section exploded."
"Rave reviews, you're going to be popular."
"Hold your thighs and wait to fly."
Finally, I added an emoticon pack of hugging my thigh.
I stared at these messages for a long time, then quickly turned on the computer, clicked on the webpage, and saw the comments. In one night, more than 500 comments surged. I pulled the page bar and browsed down. The comments were all discussing my comics, some were talking about my plot, some were praising my storyboards, and some were praising my characters. Most of them are confessing to me, comparing their hearts, and reminding me to change.
It's not that there were no comments before, but suddenly the number came to an "explosive" growth for me, and I got excited.
My heart was beating "thump-thump", and a joy of being appreciated by others came from the bottom of my heart, which made my scalp feel a little numb for a while, as beautiful as being confessed by someone I have loved for a long time.
I admit, I was drifting, a little bit complacent.
After reading the comments, I replied to Jijijiang's message.
"I just saw it and was stunned. I have no idea what happened."
Jiji sauce quickly replied to me: "On Weibo, a person called ?n bar?n greatly recommended your manga, and said that she was crying after reading your mermaid chapter, and her fans flocked to her. gone."
I typed three exclamation points to express my shock, and I said, "Say something outrageous! I grew up watching ?n?n's manga! I saw her serialize manga in magazines in junior high school! My Goddess!"
"Hahaha, hurry up and go to the whole Weibo account, so that you can interact with Da Da, maybe you will hug your thigh from now on, and have a happy life!" Jijijiang asked me, "Speaking of which, you have been drawing for so many years , why don’t you even have a Weibo account?”
I was silent for a while, and the joy of being confessed by the person I had a crush on dropped a little.
As a modern person, two-dimensional, drawing comics, how could I not have Weibo.
Of course I did, but after breaking up with my ex-boyfriend, I just... gave up.
