I am a Good Man

"I'm still chewing on my old age now."

He said it with some self-deprecation at the end.

Yu Lu choked up, and after a while she comforted her, "Don't think so, this is not an act of gnawing at old age, you are still working hard."

"I don't have enough money to work. It's not like you don't know my salary." He was optimistic and said as he gave her a small steamed bun, "It tastes best while it's hot."

"I really don't know." She took a bite of the steamed bun and looked at him with clear and bright eyes.

Seriously.

In the past two years, she really didn't know how much Ji Yang's salary was.

Seeing her like this, Ji Yang raised his eyes and laughed slowly, "I didn't know you were asking."

Yu Lu looked into his deep black eyes, her heart thumped suddenly, she quickly looked away and said casually, "Why do I ask this?"

She doesn't spend it.

"I got 2,800 yuan before. In the past two years, it has increased by 300 yuan to 3,010 yuan. The year-end bonus may be about 15,000 yuan. The monthly car fuel cost is 1,000 yuan. I can have a thousand yuan left." That’s good.” After saying that, he emphasized, “This is based on the fact that you didn’t spend my money.”

"That's a subsidy from parents." Yu Lu reminded him.

She didn't care much about his salary and didn't plan to spend it. Such salary was indeed not enough to support a family.

Ji Yang's chicness is supported by the rent and the social security provided by Ji's father and Ji's mother.

She originally thought that he was a person who always had things going smoothly, but she didn't expect that he still had a hard time when he was a child.

"Yes, it's the result of your parents and you's support." He didn't deny it, lowered his eyes, and was in a bad mood, "Dad's illness this time has hit me a bit hard."

"The operation was successful. Dad will get better soon." Yu Lu comforted him.

"But they are old." Ji Yang put down his chopsticks, not having much appetite.

Hearing this, she also fell silent.

Her parents were aging very quickly, faster than they could grow. She understood what Ji Yang meant. They might not be able to protect and take care of their parents yet.

"Mom just called. Dad is awake and quite sober." Ji Yang changed the topic.

"That's good. Maybe you can be discharged from the hospital in less than two weeks." Yu Lu agreed with him and smiled softly. After finishing her words, she pushed the steamed buns forward again, "There are two left, eat them." It’s time to go to the supermarket, otherwise you’ll be late for work.”

Before Ji Yang could speak, a voice came with some surprise, "Yu Lu."

Yu Lu turned around, and Chen Rui's hand was already on her shoulder, "Are you eating breakfast here too? What a coincidence."

"It's a coincidence. Have you eaten it?" Yu Lu asked.

"No, I just arrived." Chen Rui introduced the man beside her to them, "This is my boyfriend Zeng Yong."

After saying that, he said to the man, "This is my good friend."

"Yulu, right?" Zeng Yong said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a thin line, a bit sinister.

"Yes." Yu Lu also nodded and introduced Ji Yang to him.

She couldn't figure out what Chen Rui liked about this man. They were both almost the same height and a little chubby. Most importantly, he looked older.

I heard that he is only thirty-two, but he looks like he is in his forties. He has deep wrinkles and a dark complexion.

"Sit down." Yu Lu brought them chairs, and they sat down.

"Please bring me the order." Ji Yang called the waiter.

"OK."

The waiter brought the order over and Ji Yang handed it to Chen Rui and Chen Rui.

"Thank you." Chen Rui took the list and discussed with Zeng Yong, "My dear, what do you want to eat?"

"Just order some by the way." Zeng Yong looked unconcerned and seemed to be following her very well.

"Then I'll do whatever I want."

…

Yu Lu felt very uncomfortable listening to the interaction between the two.

Why is Chen Rui pretending to be delicate when she speaks now?

Whispering.

Soon, Yu Lu knew why Chen Rui was so obsessed with Zeng Yong.

This man is a good talker and has already started chatting with Ji Yang. He can pick up any conversation he wants, "Your company is on Renhai Road, right?"

"Yes." Ji Yang nodded.

"Working from nine to five, it's a good job, sitting in an office and blowing on the air conditioner." Zeng Yong said with a smile, "It's not like us, we have to run our own business."

"What do you do?" Ji Yang asked casually.

“For me, just doing greening is a waste of time, energy and brainpower, so I have to go outside,” Zeng Yong said.

"Well, that's indeed hard work." Ji Yang agreed expressionlessly while drinking tea.

"Don't think I'm just an accountant. Accountants work the hardest. If we can't get it out on time, we'll have to lose money." Zeng Yong added.

"I won't pay any compensation." Chen Rui said with a smile while eating breakfast.

"That's right." Zeng Yong also nodded, "The contract prices are very high, and we usually make a lot of money."

…

The two of them were talking to each other at the table, and Yu Lu and Ji Yang were reduced to two backgrounds, listening to Zeng Yong's bragging.

What they ordered was also served one by one.

Steamed dumplings, steamed dumplings, rice cakes, and buttered steamed buns, and finally a portion of steamed pork belly and a portion of sauce-flavored chicken wings.

Yu Lu didn't need to ask. She knew from Zeng Yong's own words that the other party was contracted for environmental greening.

The profits in this area are very high. They can earn millions from a big project. They are all with big people and have high status.

Some in their family are engaged in real estate, some are in warehouses, and some are running companies...

A very powerful family.

Chen Rui listened to him and smiled while eating breakfast.

"Your company has been developing well in recent years. I heard that you can get a unit recently. It is under construction across Zhuzhou Road." Zeng Yong looked at Ji Yang again and said.

"Yes." Ji Yang nodded.

"Is the employee salary a few thousand per square meter?" he asked again.

"Five thousand eight."

"That's a good deal. A set of 120 square meters is only 600,000-700,000 yuan. Do you want a set?" Zeng Yong asked him again.

"No." Ji Yang shook his head.
