MTL - The World I’m Wearing is Wrong-Chapter 59 vicious?
Bu Tian temporarily worked extra shifts and couldn't get off work on time, so naturally he didn't receive the Lantern Festival.
It was nearly ten o'clock when he got home.
Even before Lantern Festival, people were in the living room, not watching TV. Instead, they were holding a tablet, with a focused expression, earphones in their ears, and they were talking to people in English.
Hearing the movement, Lantern glanced in his direction, as if remembering that his boyfriend hadn't come back. He quickly said a few words to the person on the other end of the call, then ended the call and greeted him with a smile: "Are you back? "
Bu Tian hesitated: "Did I disturb you?"
"Ah? No." Lantern shook his head decisively, and explained: "It's a friend I met when I was studying. I don't know how he got my contact information." There was still a touch of depression in his tone, and he didn't seem to want to talk to him. His friend communicated.
"Your English is also good." Bu Tian said thoughtfully.
Lantern touched the tip of his nose and said modestly: "It's about the same level as German, but I still speak Mandarin the best."
Bu Tian: "…"
"Do you want a late-night snack?" Lantern changed the subject.
Bu Tian shook his head, thinking of his dinner, and asked, "Is dinner suitable?"
The dinner is delivered directly to the door, and it is delivered to the six-star hotel, with four dishes, one soup and fruit. The ingredients are fresh, the dishes are exquisite and delicious, and the nutrition is rich. No matter from the appearance or taste evaluation, there is nothing bad.
Naturally, it suits the taste.
Lantern Festival honestly said that it suits his taste, but thinking about the price of the meal, he wanted to talk about it again, but he swallowed it again, he ate the meal, and complained to Bu Tian that it was too expensive and wasting money after eating it was too hypocritical. .
So he changed his words and just said: "What suits the taste is that one person eats a little more."
Bu Tian had already made preparations for the Lantern Festival and wanted to "live" with him. Clinker Lantern did not say "live", but accepted it well, which made him very satisfied.
"Sorry." Bu Tiandao apologized for not being able to accompany him to dinner.
Lantern Festival is funny: "What is there to apologize for? Career is the most important thing, and working overtime is normal." After a pause, he said, "Go take a bath and rest first. Next time you work overtime and come home soon, you can tell me, I'm good. Let me put the bath water for you."
The first sentence, Bu Tian, sounded quite ironic, but the last sentence, especially "putting bath water", made him a little uncomfortable.
"...The company doesn't work much overtime. I should be able to accompany you to dinner tomorrow." He didn't take the bath water.
"Hmmmm." Lantern nodded, looking very well-behaved.
Although Bu Tian lived upstairs for the past two days, he was just sleeping.
Soon he packed up and walked out of the bedroom, and found that Lantern Festival was still in the living room, holding the tablet with a bitter look on his face. He had good eyesight, and could see the tablet page clearly from several meters away. Is it the trend of the stock market?
"Aren't you going to sleep yet?" Bu Tian was afraid of scaring him, so his voice softened.
Even so, Lantern Festival, who was too focused, was still taken aback, his hands trembled, he almost smashed the tablet, and hurriedly grabbed it.
Bu Tian was a little amused: "So timid?"
Lantern was embarrassed, "No... I think things are too fascinated." He said, and moved to the side.
Bu Tian understood the meaning of his actions, and didn't hesitate. He sat down in the place he let out, and then saw a piece of paper on the coffee table, thinking it was a menu delivered by the hotel, and was about to take it and throw it away. The trash can, but at a glance, he saw six big characters at the beginning of the paper - China Welfare Lottery.
"Lottery tickets?" Bu Tian looked at Lantern Festival in confusion.
"Uh..." Lantern felt a little guilty, "I came back to the lottery station and bought a few sets to try my luck."
Bu Tian turned his eyes back to the lottery ticket. This was the first time he had seen the real lottery ticket in 26 years. The Lantern Festival bought two-color balls, a set of seven numbers, a total of five sets of numbers. Buying a few lottery tickets is not the point. The point is that the Lantern Festival gives him the feeling that he is not someone who can buy lottery tickets.
"You also bought lottery tickets before?" Bu Tian asked.
"No..." Lantern stopped after saying a word. With his understanding of Bu Tian, Bu Tian could guess the reason for his lottery ticket in a second.
Sure enough, he just said one word and Bu Tian said, "Are you short of money?"
Lantern Festival: "…"
When Bu Tian saw his constipation, he obviously guessed right, so he asked, "How much is missing?"
"I didn't want to borrow money from you..." Lantern was a little embarrassed, and followed Bu Tian's train of thought, the subtext of asking "how much is missing" was actually "how much to borrow".
"It seems that the amount is not small." Bu Tian did not follow his words.
Lantern Festival: "...Do you have the ability to read minds?"
Bu Tian raised his eyebrows and asked him, "Can you talk to me?" Before Lantern Festival refused, he added, "We are dating, aren't we?"
Lantern Festival: "..." It's a really good reason for dating.
Although no one stipulates that lovers must confess, but since Bu Tian asked, Lantern did not intend to hide: "I hurt two people for some reasons before, and I want to compensate them." However, he did not elaborate, but generalized Summarize the cause and effect.
"It's also related to them that you pay usurious loans?" Bu Tian asked.
Yuanxiao was startled by his sharpness, nodded immediately, and explained with some anguish: "They are an innocent disaster, they are purely implicated by me, the family's savings are lost, they owe usury, and they are almost not saved when they go to the hospital..." Having said that, he glanced at Bu Tian hesitantly, seeing that Bu Tian was not impatient, and then continued: "The two people I mentioned have actually mentioned to you before, namely our foreman Zhang Ge and Brother Zhang's mother, Aunt Wu, is also my previous landlord mother and son."
"What do you mean by 'involvement'?" Bu Tian grabbed the point and asked.
Lantern pursed his lips and sighed again. The words had already started, and he did not continue to hide them. These hard things were kept in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable. Therefore, he originally told Bu Tian about sending someone from his family to borrow a fake contract for demolition and relocation.
A fake contract is actually a very obvious method of fraud, but Aunt Wu is not well educated and has a weak legal awareness. Of course she was deceived because of her own greed, but if it wasn't for Lantern Festival to live in their house, how would she have attracted such a Dirty calculations?
"If Aunt Wu and Brother Zhang don't have that much savings, just filling in usury can kill people, and Aunt Wu may never wake up again..." Lantern leaned on the sofa, looking at the ceiling, a little melancholy.
Bu Tian: "Is that Aunt Wu recovering now?"
"I went to see her last week, and the doctor said she's recovering well." Lantern replied, "Brother Zhang said today that she will be discharged from the hospital in two days. I'll visit her when I'm free."
Bu Tian nodded thoughtfully and asked again, "So, how much did your former landlord need to borrow?"
Lantern Festival: "......"
It was really… off-guard.
Lantern raised a finger.
"One hundred thousand?" Bu Tian said a number.
Lantern Festival weakly corrected: "One million."
Bu Tian said three words with no expression: "Ten months?"
Lantern Festival didn't realize the meaning of these three words for a while, he stared blankly at Bu Tian's handsome face for ten seconds, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to him, thinking of the stupid thing he once "sold" himself to Bu Tian "□□" , his face turned red completely.
He said indifferently: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I didn't really want to accompany ... to accompany that or something."
Bu Tian didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
Lantern is even more guilty and embarrassed, like a little daughter-in-law who has made a mistake, bowing her head, twirling her fingers, and occasionally taking a sneak peek at Bu Tian, but she is facing Bu Tian, and immediately moves away with a guilty conscience.
Seeing this, Bu Tian was speechless and wanted to laugh. He was about to tease him, but saw him raise his head, his face shy and timid, his eyes twinkling, and he quietly kissed him.
Bu Tian has the urge to run away.
However, before he could put it into practice, Yuanxiao had already embraced one of his arms, his head resting on his shoulder, and said with a smile, "It really didn't mean that before, but now it's okay~"
Bu Tian succeeded in getting goosebumps by his tactful "yo".
"Pfft haha..." Bu Tian was about to push the person away, but Lantern released him again, suspected of being a prankster, and laughed out, "Bu Tian, why are you so cute? I can feel your goosebumps when I put my face on your arm. !"
Bu Tian suddenly turned black.
Murderous!
Yuanxiao was very aware of current affairs and turned serious in seconds, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, I won't dare next time."
Bu Tian: "..." Guess I believe it or not?
Yuanxiao was regarded by him as a bit square, swallowed, and explained to himself with a strong desire to survive: "I just want to liven up the atmosphere, really, don't be angry."
"No need." Bu Tian coldly spit out two words.
Lantern's heart trembled, and he was so panicked that he didn't dare to speak again, looked at him at a loss, motionless.
Bu Tian, who had a panoramic view of his emotions, suddenly curved his lips, and said four words in a slow voice: "I'm not angry."
Lantern felt that his heart fell back into his stomach with his smile, but this time he didn't take a risk, but asked tentatively, "Are you really not angry?"
Bu Tian raised his face again, and Lantern Festival followed suit and became nervous again, which made Bu Tian a little bit dumbfounded.
"I'm not angry." Bu Tiandao, after speaking, felt that it was not convincing enough, he stretched out his hand again and rubbed it on Yuanxiao's head. Hair, this hairstyle is not good-looking, and your hair quality is not good, it will be sticky."
Lantern Festival: "..." This boyfriend will be dumped by him sooner or later!
Sooner or later, the boyfriend Bu Tian pierced his heart and said, "One million, are you really going to give it? What is he going to do?"
Lantern Festival wilted, "Buying a house... Brother Zhang personally begged me, and I can't say anything to refuse."
"Then how are you going to make up this million?" Bu Tian asked, as if it wasn't enough after asking, and made a stab in his heart: "How much money do you have now?"
There is no doubt that Bu Tian received a resentful look in his eyes.
After reading the Lantern Festival resentfully, he reached out and took it into his pocket.
Bu Tian: "..." It's really a familiar formula, a familiar person.
Lantern Festival took out a total of several large tickets and several small tickets, as well as a steel shovel.
"I'm full of net worth, 361 yuan." Lantern's voice seemed to have exhausted his whole body.
Bu Tian frowned slightly, suddenly remembering that Lantern Festival had money in his pocket the day he went to the hospital, combined with the explanation of today's Lantern Festival that the mother and son of the former landlord were implicated by him to end up in today's predicament, and naturally thought of one thing—
He didn't sympathize with Lantern Festival, but asked, "Will you pay her to see the former landlord who was hospitalized?"
Last month, the total number of working days for Lantern Festival was more than 20 days, and the wages were around 7,000 or 8,000. However, he invited Lanxiao to do a part-time job and gave him a few thousand. In total, he was about 11,000 a month. He had 5,000 in arrears, and Yuanxiao should have 7,000 or 8,000 left. He didn't buy anything, and it was impossible to only have more than 300 yuan left.
"Yeah." Lantern nodded honestly, "Except for a few hundred yuan living expenses, the rest is basically given to Aunt Wu."
Bu Tian stared at him and continued to ask: "You took all your savings and even borrowed money to fill the loan-sharking debt for the former landlord, and most of the wages last month were also given to her, does your contractor know that you have no money? "
Lantern did not answer.
The answer is obvious. The wages for Lantern Festival are all from the hand of his foreman. Lantern Festival does not require a bank card, and the income is "transparent" with his foreman, so the foreman knows very well whether there is money on hand for Lantern Festival.
Lantern Festival has no money, and it can even be attributed to the poor, which is still beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Ask a poor man to borrow money, and it is still a million at the beginning?
Lantern Festival said melancholy: "After all, I owe them..."
"So are you going to sell your kidneys or your blood?" Bu Tian coldly interrupted him, "Have you grown thirty kidneys or have three thousand catties of blood in your body?"
Yuanxiao was stunned by his words. He had known Bu Tian for almost two months, and it was the first time he found out that Bu Tian still had... poisonous tongue?
While stunned, he tilted his head again and asked a stupid question: "Selling yourself to you, okay?"
