Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

After answering the phone, Qian Yanan said to Hao Liang and He Limei who were standing aside, "My boyfriend is off work and is already waiting for me downstairs. I have to leave first."

Qian Yanan said, putting down the microphone in his hand, finding the bag on the sofa and picking it up.

"Why don't you let your boyfriend take me home first?" He Limei said, grabbing Qian Yanan who was about to leave.

"My boyfriend came to pick me up on his bicycle. If he can't deliver it, you should let this handsome guy deliver it to you. Goodbye!"

As he spoke, Qian Yanan took another bag of potato chips that had not yet been opened on the table, shook it in his hand, smiled with Hao Liang, waved and left the box.

At this time, only He Limei and Hao Liang were left in the entire box, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Hao Liang was the thicker one and said to He Limei.

"How about we drink some more and play for a while and then I'll take you back. How about that?"

"There's no one here anymore. What are you playing for? You didn't even sing a song all night. Don't come to a place like this in the future."

"I didn't want to come in the first place, but Zhong Yi forced me to come. What could he do?"

"Zhong Yi brought you here, why are you paying for it? I just heard Zhou Chan say that it was your treat this time, and it cost a thousand yuan, which is half of my salary."

"It was Zhong Yi who paid for the bar last time. I'm sorry to let him treat me this time."

"What's the point of being embarrassed? I don't know how many times he's invited me in the past six months. Just call the waiter and ask her to bring a bag, and then ask the waiter to store the wine for you."

After finishing speaking, He Limei ignored Hao Liang, picked out some unopened snacks from the wine table, and placed them on the sofa.

Hao Liang went to the door and called a waiter, who came over and deposited the remaining box of beer.

Zhong Yi and He Limei stayed in the box, talking to each other wordlessly, but there was no awkwardness at the beginning after everyone left.

He Limei glanced at the door and saw that the waiter hadn't come back yet. She turned her head to one side, looked in another direction, and said to Hao Liang.

"Send me home later and don't go to the hotel. I won't go with you again."

As soon as He Limei finished speaking, the waiter came in with a wine list and a bag. The waiter handed the wine list directly to He Limei. He did not hand it to Hao Liang.

After He Limei took it, she glanced at Hao Liang, and just as she was about to hand it over to Hao Liang, Hao Liang said, "Take it, I don't usually come to places like this. Zhong Yi took me to the bar last time."

It’s the same this time.”

He Limei heard Hao Liang's words and did not refuse. She put the wine list directly into the pocket of her jeans and put the leftover snacks into the bag.

He Limei carried the bag and walked outside the KTV with Hao Liang. There happened to be a few taxis waiting outside. They opened the back door and the two of them got in.

"Master, go to Motel Express."

After Hao Liang got into the car, he spoke directly to the taxi driver, as if he had forgotten what He Limei had just said to him in the box.

He Limei just glanced at Hao Liang and didn't say anything to the driver. The taxi driver started the car and drove away.

After getting off the car, He Limei glanced at the door of the hotel and said to Hao Liang, who was still standing, "Go in and open the room. After you open it, come out and call me."

Hao Liang was delighted when he heard what He Limei said. He would be a fool to listen to what He Limei just said in the box in reverse. He would really send her back.

Zhong Yi taught him several times in the previous life, but Hao Liang didn't understand it. This time he finally got the hang of it. Hao Liang's dark face showed a smile that only he knew.

Seeing the mean smile on Hao Liang's dark face, He Limei suddenly became very angry and didn't want to go in with Hao Liang.

"Why are you smiling so meanly? Why don't you go get a room quickly? What time is it already?"

As soon as Hao Liang heard He Limei's words, he came to his senses, put away the smile on his face, and ran to the hotel bar.

He took out the membership card he had given him last time in his wallet and handed it to the waiter who opened another single room. He came out and asked He Limei to go in with them.

Early the next morning, He Limei woke up first, went to the bathroom and took a shower. After getting dressed and coming back, she pushed Hao Liang, who was still sleeping soundly.

After Hao Liang was pushed awake, he opened his eyes and glanced at He Limei, who was dressed, rubbed his eyes and asked, "Why are you up so early?"

"I still have to go to work. Give me 100 yuan. I have no money left. I will pay you back in two days after I have paid you."

Hao Liang took the pants on the bedside table, took out his wallet and looked at it. There was still more than four hundred yuan in it. He took out three hundred yuan and handed it to He Limei.

"How can one hundred be enough? I still have four hundred. I'll give you three hundred."

"I've got enough for one hundred yuan. I'll call you in two days and come to my store to get it. By the way, I took this bag of snacks." After saying that, he took out one hundred yuan from Hao Liang's hand and took it.

I left with the snacks I brought back from the KTV last night.

After Hao Liang slept for a while, his phone rang. Seeing that it was Director Hong, Hao Liang picked it up and said quickly, "Director Hong, what's wrong with calling me so early?"

"Let me remind you, don't forget to open the pawn shop today."

"Okay, I'll go there in a minute. Director Hong, do you have any other instructions?"

"No, work hard. It's done this time. I'll call you in advance when I get the chance. Hang up."

"Okay, goodbye, Director Hong." Before Hao Liang finished speaking, Director Hong hung up the phone first.

Hao Liang, who heard the busy signal from his cell phone, put the phone aside and did not take another nap.

As usual, I went to the bathroom and took a shower. I went back to the room and put on my clothes. I took my room card and left the room, went to the bar downstairs, and checked out of the room.

When he arrived at the hotel entrance, Hao Liang hailed a taxi and took a taxi back to Fatty Internet Cafe.

Running to the room on the third floor, Hao Liang pulled out two suitcases from under the bed, opened them and checked the contents.

Hao Liang went to the writing desk again, took the notebook that Director Hong gave him, put it in the box, covered the box and locked it.

He returned to the desk, picked up the key and the note with the address. After looking at it, he memorized the address on the note, put the note and key into his pocket, and left the room with two boxes.

.

Hao Liang carried two boxes and walked to the door of the Internet cafe downstairs. The fat man, the owner and landlord of the Internet cafe, also walked up from the first floor with a bag of steamed buns and soy milk in his hand.

Seeing Hao Liang carrying two boxes in his hand, he asked casually: "Hao Liang, are you going home or going to do something? You are going out with two boxes."

"Well, I have something to do. Fat brother, why are you here so early today?" Hao Liang stopped and said.

"It's a holiday today. My wife went to her parents' house with the kids. I didn't have anything to do so I came over early. I can be free these days. Haha."

Seeing the fat man's inner laughter, Hao Liang didn't intend to continue chatting with the fat man, so he stepped aside and said, "Well, fat brother, I'll leave first. I have other things to do."

"Well, I asked someone to install the electric meter for you today. If you have any valuables in your room, you can take them away. I won't compensate you for anything missing." The fat man took a bite of the bun and said.

"There is nothing in the room, thank you, Fat Brother."

After finishing speaking, Hao Liang carried two boxes and left from the fat man's side.

After waiting for a while on the road, a taxi came and told the driver the address on the note.

After the driver heard where Hao Liang was going, he looked at Hao Liang and said to Hao Liang, "Handsome guy, that place isn't open for business yet. How about I take you to another place."

Hao Liang was a little confused by the driver's words, but he still said to the driver, "Master, you drive, I have something urgent."

The driver stopped talking now, looked at Hao Liang strangely, started the car and drove towards the address Hao Liang said.

After arriving at the place, Hao Liang understood what the driver just said. What do you mean by this place? It is quite good. If it is night, there may be many men coming here to have fun.

This pawn shop is located in an alley in the old city. On both sides and opposite of the pawn shop are serious-colored hair washing rooms, and the pawn shop is in the middle. There is also a health store next to it.
