Chapter 153 Seeing the dragon in the field is beneficial to seeing the Lord
Ning Chunyan stared at him with an extremely serious expression.
“You just said it smells good, what kind of fragrance do you mean specifically?”
Seeing Ning Chunyan’s thoughts getting more and more flying out of the sky, Wang Zixu quickly pulled her back.
“Don’t be too outrageous, she and I are just roommates.”
“Oh.”
Ning Chunyan thought for a while, then came back to her senses: "You are outrageous. How can you buy a house with someone of the opposite sex and live together? Won't this spark something sooner or later?"
“啊？我倒是觉得没什么。”
“你个占便宜的当然觉得没什么。某神国天天侵占邻居的地盘几十年了有说过什么吗？被邻居揍了才跑到国际上哭哭啼啼。这叫得了便宜卖乖。”
宁春宴没有跟别人合住过，她看过的文艺作品导致她对“同居”这个题材的全部想象，充斥着意外走光、擦枪走火、日久生情，因此脸红红的感觉特别难以接受。
Wang Zixu stretched out his hands to stop her: "I said stop, your perspective of interpreting this matter is completely different from the facts."
"Then what are the facts?"
"The fact is that when I just graduated from college, didn't I stay in Tianjing for half a year? I just found a job."
"Huh? What does this have to do with it?"
"Listen to me."
“Okay, continue.”
“At that time, I lived in a house that was converted by others. A commercial house was divided into 8 rooms. Each room was only a little bigger than a palm and only big enough for a bed. There were more than a dozen people living there, both men and women.
"There are only two toilets in the whole house. One has a shower and the other does not have a shower. You can only relieve yourself. After 8 o'clock every night, you have to grab your own basin to grab the bathroom. Men and women line up together. Through the translucent glass, you can see the blurry outline of the people inside. Of course, you can't see anything. Qing.
“There is a balcony at the entrance, and everyone’s clothes are dried there, even their underwear. When I go out, the purple and pink flesh-colored bras and underwear are hanging above my head, dripping with water, and sometimes it will get stuck on my face when the wind is strong. "
After saying that, Wang Zixu paused for a long time and said, "Is this considered cohabitation?" "
Ning Chunyan hesitated: "No... forget it? ”
"Well, Ye Lan and I are roommates, and our interactions are less than this. We rarely see people. We always stay in our own rooms, and even the bathroom and balcony are separate. Unless it's a coincidence, we often don't meet anyone for a day. We are all adults, and we pay attention to propriety."
“Were your living conditions so poor before?”
Wang Zixu laughed at himself: “Isn’t this the case for fresh graduates in this era who go to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou? My conditions are pretty good, while more people can only live in basements.”
“That’s not the case for me.”
"You are different."
Ning Chunyan showed a disgusted expression: "Isn't it wrong to expose your underwear outside? What should you do if you meet such a pervert?"
"If you don't expose your underwear outside, there is nowhere else to do it. The room is as big as a palm. There are no windows at all, so the sun dries up in the house and creates a stinky smell. If you don’t want to walk around in smelly underwear, you can only hang your underwear outside. ”
“…Forget it, just drive.”
The two of them arrived at Wang Zixu’s house, but thank God Ye Lan was not there. As soon as she entered the door, Ning Chunyan became alert and rushed into the house, her nose twitching like a dog (she didn't know what she planned to smell) and searching everywhere.
“What are you doing?”
Ning Chunyan did not answer. After walking around in various rooms, he came back with a frown on his face, but said nothing.
This home is quite empty. There is not even a TV in the living room. Naturally, there are no traces of living together. Of course, there is no strong evidence found at the Ning Chun Banquet.
Wang Zixu went to his room, searched in the box, and finally took out a wrinkled suit from the bottom of the box, and held it up to show Ning Chunyan:
"That's it."
After watching the Ning Chun Banquet, he immediately shook his head: "This is no good, this is too student style, you will be laughed at if you wear it for that kind of occasion."
Wang Zixu put down his clothes: "A person for that kind of occasion. Can you be so superficial and mean? "
"People are superficial and mean. Even if they don't laugh at you, they will laugh at you in their hearts."
"Others are hell, and staring is slavery."
Ning Chunyan suddenly opened his wardrobe: "Now is not the time to care about slavery or not. If you have no money or status, of course you have to care about other people's opinions. When you become the chief editor of the industry's leading magazine, no one will care about you even if you wear big pants, and don't care about him. People's vision is the power of those in power. Do you have a white shirt? Where's your tie? " Ning Chunyan easily exposed the small-capitalist nature of Sartre's views with one sentence. Wang Zixu was not convinced, but he had to be convinced. Ning Chunyan's philosophy of life is to be harmonious, self-reliant and down-to-earth. He helped her look through the wardrobe together.
Ning Chunyan said: "I suddenly feel like this is a bit like..."
"Like what?"
"Nothing."
"Click, squeak." Outside the room, the door rang.
Wang Zixu was still thinking that everything about this room was good, except that the security door was a low-end product installed uniformly by the developer. It made a loud noise every time the door was opened and closed, which was really annoying. The next thing he realized was that Ye Lan was back.
He hurried out. Ye Lan was squatting at the door to change his shoes. When he saw Wang Zixu, he immediately said:
"Are you at home? How was the seminar in the morning?"
Wang Zixu rubbed his hands on the hem of his clothes: "It's okay. I have an event in the evening. Come back and change clothes."
"Are you so serious? Are you going to meet a big shot?"
“That’s right.”
The sweat in Wang Zixu’s hands could not be wiped clean. He wanted Ning Chunyan to take the initiative to say hello to Ye Lan, but he always felt a little embarrassed if he had to take the initiative to say hello. But Ning Chunyan had been making up his mind in the room without saying a word or coming out.
“Do you have a formal suit? Do you want me to help you match it?” Ye Lan came over.
“No, no, no…”
Ye Lan smiled narrowly and said: “With your straight taste, can you put on good clothes? Your windbreaker last time was pretty good. For formal wear, you probably only have the kind of suit that fresh graduates would wear, right?”
When Wang Zixu heard "that windbreaker", he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. "That windbreaker" was the little prince's windbreaker. If Ye Lan said the words "little prince", everything would be over. Fortunately, she didn't say it.
He simply said openly: "Ning Chun Yan is here, and she is helping me put on my clothes."
"Ning Chun Yan?"
Ye Lan's face suddenly changed color. She walked to the door and happened to see Ning Chunyan standing in the room, holding a shirt in his hand, and said hello to her without embarrassment:
"Hi."
"What are you..."
"He and I are going to attend a dinner tonight, as representatives of our magazine." Ning Chunyan spoke quickly.
“That’s it.” Ye Lan relaxed a little.
“Of course, otherwise, how could I help him put on clothes? I’m not like him.”
“That’s right. It’s okay if he is a frustrated man like him. Who can show him when he is dressed so well?”
“Yes, as long as you can work.”
“Hahaha...”
“Hehehe...”
The two women laughed easily and reached a reconciliation. Only Wang Zixu felt a little humiliated for no reason.
After laughing, Ning Chunyan lowered his hands in frustration and said: "The key problem is that he is too frustrated. He doesn't have anything in his wardrobe that he can wear out."
Ye Lan said: "Boys in science and engineering are like this, very straight. The same goes for the programmers in our company, who can wear a set of clothes I’ve never been able to wear T-shirts in the summer and jackets in the winter.” Ning Chunyan said, “I can only buy them now.” Ye Lan said, “Okay, I’ll buy them together for you.”
Ning Chunyan said, "No need, right? Aren't you going to work in the afternoon?"
"It's okay, I'm not busy at work."
So the situation became that Ning Chunyan and Ye Lan took Wang Zixu to buy clothes.
Ye Lan didn’t lie. She really knew that the shop selling finished suits was on the first floor of Galaxy City at the intersection of Xuanhe Road. Through a narrow path, you could reach the largest A cargo distribution center in the East China Sea. Standing on the second floor of the warehouse, you could overlook Nanda University and Huali.
Although most of the products here are A-grade goods, there are also some flea markets. Since it is close to the two university campuses, many students come here to shop for cheap, and there is a wide variety of products.
In a place like this, Wang Zixu, flanked by two beautiful women on one side and one on the right, looks very eye-catching. As he walked over, he noticed several people secretly turning back to look at him.
When arriving at the store, everything from choosing clothes to negotiating prices was handled by two girls. Ning Chunyan had unique taste and chose matching outfits, while Ye Lan had sharp teeth and strong momentum. The combination of the two formed a 1+1>2 effect. This resulted in Wang Zixu being unable to speak during the whole process and could only stand aside and act as a model.
After some discussion, the two women decided to put a total of four or five sets, from jackets to trousers to ties, shirts, belts and vests, into his arms for him to try on.
Suits pay attention to the shape, binding the muscles like armor, so that the waist, back and chest appear straight. As a result, Wang Zixu, who was used to being undisciplined, felt uncomfortable all over after putting on his clothes.
But when he walked out of the fitting room, he could clearly see that the eyes of Ning Chunyan and Ye Lan were as bright as stars. They stared at him for a long time, which made him feel a little scared.
“Can you say something?”
“Not bad, very good.” Ye Lan spoke first and nodded, “He looks like a dog.”
Ning Chunyan dusted the lapel collar on his chest: "It's like that. If you take me out for today's occasion, you are qualified enough to meet the big shots, and you won't be compared with others."
Ye Lan asked: "What big shot are you meeting?"
Wang Zixu said: "Spare me."
Ye Lan rolled her eyes, she also wanted to establish such a rule.
It’s a pity that she can’t control him now.
Wang Zixu turned around and looked in the mirror. He was over 1.8 meters tall and had a good physical condition due to long-term exercise. Putting on formal clothes, he really changed his previous demeanor. In addition, I went out to take in the sunshine, which wiped away the depression that I couldn't write in a novel, and I looked like I was five or six years younger.
The proprietress of the clothing store came over and helped Wang Zixu adjust his tie with a motherly look on her face. She said:
"He is so handsome. This suit really suits him. He is tall and this suits him really well. Which of you is he... "
Ning Chunyan said: "Friends."
"Boyfriend?"
Ning Chunyan said with a dark face: "Not a boyfriend, just a friend."
The boss lady said very emotionally: "Your friend looks so handsome in this, he will definitely be very popular."
Ye Lan said: "Boss boss, can you give me a discount?"
The boss lady immediately showed an embarrassed expression. : "Oh, what we sell in the store is at cost price, and we don't make much money."
The next step was to test the eloquence and emotional intelligence. Ye Lan and Ning Chunyan haggled over the prices. In the end, Wang Zixu went to pay, and got the whole set for 2800, which was much cheaper than he imagined.
When he walked out of the store, Wang Zixu was still wearing the same suit, but the tag had been cut off. Ning Chunyan told him not to change it, since he couldn't wash it today anyway.
The car was parked in the underground garage of Galaxy City, so it was necessary to pass through the first floor of Galaxy City. When walking to the escalator, Ning Chunyan suddenly stopped.
Not far away, a girl with a more high-profile clothing style than Wang Zixu walked over from the opposite side. When she saw Ning Chunyan, she reached out and said hello with a formulaic smile:
"Sister Xiaochun, congratulations!"
Ning Chunyan waved her hand with a slight embarrassment: "Xiao Mengyin, why are you here?"
This question made Xiao Mengyin's cheeks inexplicably stained with blood, but it quickly disappeared. She avoided the question and said:
“Congratulations on the success of your first issue of the magazine! I’m so envious that you were able to attend Teacher Shi Tonghe’s dinner. I didn’t even have the chance to go there.”
Ning Chunyan became nervous: "Who told you that I was going to attend Shi Tonghe's dinner party?"
Xiao Mengyin pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course he is my little brother."< /p>
"Shi Shuqiu?"
Ning Chunyan understood, and said: "Your little brother really tells you everything."
Xiao Mengyin said: "My little brother can praise you, saying that you are too beautiful, and you can turn all living beings upside down just by dressing up casually."
Ning Chunyan didn't believe it: "You didn't make it up, did you? He didn't say that in front of me, so how could he praise someone behind his back?"
Xiao Mengyin said: "Really, he really said that, I'm jealous."
After saying that, she turned to see Wang Zixu and Ye Lan. Wang Zixu was tall, so she raised her head and struggled to see his face clearly, and asked: "Is this the boyfriend you are looking for?" Ning Chunyan once again said with a dark face: "This is the editor of my magazine, have you forgotten?"
Xiao Mengyin nodded: "Oh, no wonder he looks so familiar."
Wang Zixu wanted to say that the reason she looked familiar was because they had played egg-breaking together and won. But presumably she must have forgotten it, so he didn't bother to mention it.
If he mentioned it, he would definitely have a relationship with her and leave an impression on her, but he was too lazy to mention it.
“If you have a chance, please help me get Teacher Shi Tonghe’s autograph, let’s go.”
At this time, on the second floor of Galaxy City, the NTU Student Association walked across the ramp.
Lu Qingxuan had sharp eyes, tilted his head, and immediately moved to the railing, shouting in a low voice:
"Editor-in-Chief Ning!"
A boy next to him came over to protect him: "Move gently, be careful not to fall."
"How can I fall if there is a railing here?"
"Who knows whether the railing is strong or not?"
Several girls nearby started to boo, "Xiao Chunan, you are so protective of the flowers!"
The boys blushed and started arguing. These sounds did not reach Lu Qingxuan's ears. She was thinking about whether to say hello to Ning Chunyan, but she suddenly caught a glimpse of Wang Zixu next to her.
“That’s Wang Zixu? Why are you dressed like that?”
Next, she watched a man and two women go down to the first floor and frowned.
“What are they doing?”
Wang Zixu was not nervous at first, but when he was exaggerated by Xiao Mengyin, he suddenly became nervous.
Only then did he realize that he was going to have dinner with a mountain in the literary world.
A year ago, he would never have imagined that in just one year, he would be able to go from being penniless to being able to sit on Shi Tonghe's desk in person. He wouldn't have thought of it even half a year ago.
He remembered the hexagram Qian hexagram he had obtained.
Qian hexagram ninety-two, if you see a dragon in the field, you will be lucky to see an adult.
