Rebirth of the Routine King

The rescue team arrived soon. Wang Yan, who was trapped in the car, could hear the roar of the forklift and could feel the covering soil gradually reducing.

When he got out of the car and saw the scale of the disaster, he was stunned.

A landslide occurred at this point on the long road, and the length of the road involved was about a hundred meters.

What an unlucky situation! Even if it was ten seconds faster or slower, this accident could have been avoided.

In the end, I can only say that it is destined!

The vehicle was not seriously damaged, except that its appearance was squeezed, which did not affect its driving function.

After this accident, Wen Shuyao had a psychological shadow while driving. When passing the mountain, she would turn her head to look up from time to time.

Soon, we came to a group of villas.

According to her, there was a family change in the Wen family before the millennium. As the first wife, Wen Shuyao's mother got tired of the intrigues and only wanted this villa on Taiping Mountain. In the past few years, she has been living there.

Staying in the villa, the number of trips down the mountain can be counted on one's fingers.

Arriving in front of a villa, Wen Shuyao parked the car and said calmly: "We're here."

Wang Yan walked into the villa with her with the gift in hand.

Wen Shuyao's mother looks quite old, at least in her sixties, but her eyes are very calm, giving people the impression of a kind grandmother.

"Auntie, my name is Wang Yan. I don't know what you like, so I just bought two gifts."

Wang Yan did not speak Mandarin, but communicated in Zhoucheng dialect.

Mother Wen first looked at Wang Yan for a long time, and then replied in an unauthentic mall dialect: "It's so kind to hear the words from my hometown. Has the mall changed much now?"

The dialects in Zhoucheng and Shangcheng are similar. Seeing that Wen's mother can understand them, Wang Yan continued: "There have been great changes in the past few years! Tall buildings are rising one after another. If you go back again, you won't be able to recognize them."

There was both pride and loneliness in Mother Wen's eyes, and she said softly: "There is no one in my hometown anymore, so I won't go back."

Wen Shuyao said at the right time: "Mom, Wang Yan bought you a dress, do you like it?"

Mother Wen only glanced at the brand on the handbag and complained to Wang Yan: "Why do you still buy such an expensive gift? I just want you to come home for a meal..."

Wang Yan smiled and said: "Auntie, you are an elder, and I am the only relative in Xiangjiang. Naturally, the more expensive the gift, the more it represents my feelings."

Mother Wen was very happy to hear it, especially the sentence about "the only relative in Xiangjiang", which really touched her heart.

What do people who have lived in a different place value most?

It's hometown love.

Looking at her mother who hadn't smiled happily for a long time, Wen Shuyao was also surprised for a moment. She didn't expect that Wang Yan's mouth was quite powerful!

A few words made my mother smile.

Mother Wen glanced at Wang Yan with relief and said, "You sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen to serve the food."

Wang Yan hurriedly stood up and followed: "If I call you aunt, you will treat me as your junior. I will do the small work of serving dishes..."

Wen Shuyao curled her lips, as if she was disdainful of Wang Yan's flattery, but she followed him into the kitchen.

This New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. There were more than a dozen plates on the dining table for three people!

There are many precious ingredients such as shark's fin. What surprised Wang Yan was that there were two home-style stir-fried dishes that can only be found in shopping malls!

Mother Wen smiled and said: "Xiao Wang, these two dishes were made by me on the spur of the moment. Try them. Do they taste like home?"

Wang Yan quickly put it in his mouth, chewed it, and nodded quickly: "It's delicious, it's exactly the same as what my mother makes!"

Wen Shuyao looked at Wang Yan, and she thought that his words seemed to take advantage of her.

Mother Wen looked at Wang Yan with an exaggerated expression and said with emotion: "I have been in Xiangjiang for a long time, and I am almost unfamiliar with the taste of my hometown. I force myself to cook a few dishes from my hometown every once in a while. Otherwise, I won't even have a taste of my hometown."

I can’t even find it…”

Wang Yan chuckled and said, "Isn't it easy to find the feeling of your hometown? When you return to the mall, I will be your relative and I will take you around."

Mother Wen did not comment and asked Wang Yan to eat.

When Wang Yan saw that mother and daughter were both silent, he didn't dare to open his mouth. A wealthy family has many rules. What if they advocate eating without speaking?

As expected

, during the entire meal, apart from the clattering of bowls and chopsticks, not even the sound of chewing food could be heard, and the entire New Year's Eve dinner was eerily quiet.

Mother Wen put down her chopsticks, glanced back and forth between Wang Yan and her daughter, and then said, "Xiao Wang, what kind of business do you do in the mall?"

Wang Yan also put down his chopsticks, nodded and replied: "I opened a food company, and I came to Xiangjiang this time to handle stock business."

Mother Wen nodded happily: "Is business going well?"

Wang Yan said modestly: "It's okay."

Wen Shuyao interjected: "Mom, he is still a college student!"

Mother Wen said oh and chuckled: "You are really young and promising!"

...

After dinner, Wang Yan helped clear the dishes, but Wen's mother refused.

With nothing to do, I simply went to the empty balcony on the second floor of the villa to smoke while enjoying the fireworks show in Hong Kong.

After raining all day and all night, it finally stopped, and the fresh air was mixed with a cold smell, making people feel refreshed.

Victoria Peak Villa is indeed synonymous with the rich in Hong Kong. The location here is simply perfect! You can have a panoramic view of most of Hong Kong.

Today is New Year's Eve in the traditional sense, and the people of Xiangjiang also expressed their welcome to this festival in their own way.

There are countless tall buildings covered in colorful lights! Fireworks taking off are everywhere!

The gorgeous fireworks completely light up the night sky in Xiangjiang! The dull and dense sound seems to be a chant to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

"New Year's Eve is the busiest time in Hong Kong every year, and this situation will continue until the bell rings in the early morning."

At some point, Wen Shuyao stood behind Wang Yan.

Wang Yan turned his head and smiled: "Do you also stand here every year, looking at the lights of thousands of houses, slowly raising the corners of your mouth and smiling?"

Wen Shuyao shook his head slightly and said sadly: "This is a mountain. It's too far away from the lights. I can't feel the smoke of fireworks."

"Then get closer so you can feel the smoke of the fireworks."

Wen Shuyao frowned slightly: "What did you say?"

Wang Yan smiled and said: "Are you interested in going back to the city with me for a walk? I may have to leave tomorrow. It's a hard time to come here. I don't want to go back full of regrets."

Wen Shuyao hesitated: "But there is no car..."

"Isn't that BMW still drivable? I'll go down and wash it. You go tell auntie and come up with any excuse. I'll take you back in the middle of the night..."

Wen Shuyao frowned again: "You want me to lie to my mother?"

Wang Yan looked nonchalant: "What's the point? I often lie to my dad. You should give it a try, it'll be great!"

Wen Shuyao curled her lips, but was still persuaded by Wang Yan: "Okay! I'll try..."

Wang Yan had just finished washing when Wen Shuyao ran down and said slightly excitedly: "I made an agreement with my mother."

Wang Yan encouraged: "You are very talented in lying. You must practice more in the future."

Wen Shuyao curled her lips again, but this time she smiled.

The two of them washed the car together, and Wang Yan asked for the car keys: "I'll drive it! You're driving too slowly!"

The steering wheels of cars in Xiangjiang are all on the right side. Wang Yan felt a little awkward at first, but he got used to it after five minutes.

On the way, Wang Yan started chatting: "Don't you have any friends in Xiangjiang? You don't go to carnival parties during the Chinese New Year?"

"Before I went to study abroad, I had a few, but over the past few years we have lost contact. Besides, I don't want to waste my time on entertainment every day, so I have no contact."

Wang Yan smiled: "We have different ideas. I like hanging out with friends, even if I become the boss. In fact, it is easy to get paranoid by doing the same thing all the time. I advise you to learn to entertain."

...

When they arrived in the city, in order to prevent the traffic police from checking the car, Wang Yan handed the steering wheel to Wen Shuyao.

"Find a repair shop. The car only has dents on the surface. Just touch up the sheet metal and paint it."

Wen Shuyao hesitated for a moment: "It will take a long time to repair the car. What should we do when we go back from the party?"

Wang Yan said confidently: "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to fix it before we go back!"

Come to a family

In front of a larger car repair shop, Wang Yan asked Wen Shuyao to communicate with the boss.

After some negotiations that Wang Yan couldn't understand, Wen Shuyao shook her head at Wang Yan: "The boss said that the car needs to be painted, and there are still a few cars that have not been repaired. If the car is repaired, we won't be able to pick up the car today."

Wang Yan said: "Ask the boss how much it will cost to repair it?"

Wen Shuyao did as he was told.

Answered Wang Yan: "The boss said he wanted 3,800 Hong Kong dollars."

Wang Yan nodded: "Tell him again, can it be repaired in three hours for five thousand Hong Kong dollars?"

Wen Shuyao was stunned for a moment, but still chose to do it.

Then he answered Wang Yan: "The boss said yes."

...

Walking side by side on the streets of Xiangjiang, Wang Yan said with a smile: "Any problem that can be solved with money, use money. Although it cannot buy time, it can save time. This is the privilege of the rich, and so do I."

This is my first time using such a skill."

Wen Shuyao curled her lips and did not express any opinion on Wang Yan's insights.

Wang Yan then asked: "You are so rich, why don't you buy a sports car or prepare an extra car?"

Wen Shuyao said calmly: "The car is just a means of transportation, I don't have much requirements for it."

"Hey, is this a cosmetics store? How about we go in and take a look?"

After hearing Wang Yan's words, Wen Shuyao's heart felt a little rippled.

When he encouraged her to return to the city on the mountain, she felt that he had a purpose, and now he dragged her into a cosmetics store... Do you want to buy cosmetics for yourself?

What's the purpose?

Want to soak yourself?

Haha, do you still need to buy gifts if you want to entertain yourself? I have to express myself more clearly when I am trapped in the car.

Wang Yan naturally didn't know what she was thinking. After pulling her in, he said, "Tell the waiter that I want to buy a set of cosmetics for women around thirty years old."

Wen Shuyao frowned: "Do you think I am thirty years old?"

A big question mark appeared on Wang Yan's forehead. After figuring out the key, he couldn't laugh or cry: "I bought it for my sister-in-law!"

Wen Shuyao turned her body back without leaving a trace, and then communicated with the lady at the counter.

...

After leaving the cosmetics store, Wang Yan asked again: "Is there a lingerie store in front of you? Let's go! Go in and take a look..."

In order to prevent Wen Shuyao from overthinking, he finally added: "I want to buy a set for my girlfriend."

After walking in, Wang Yan chose a set of white lace underwear and said to Wen Shuyao: "Please try it on for me. If you put it on, it should be just right for my girlfriend."

....”

Naturally, the purchase was not successful in the end, because those words hurt Wen Shuyao's heart.

To make up for his careless remarks, Wang Yan bought two pieces of ice cream.

Eating ice cream in the winter...not to mention, Wen Shuyao ate it with gusto.

"By the way, do you know where I can buy genuine discs?"

...

Half an hour later,

"Wen Shuyao, do you know where I can buy those old-fashioned pipes?"

...

Half an hour later, Wang Yan dragged Wen Shuyao into a clothing store.

Until then, classmate Xiaowen also noticed it. I dare you to drag me out just to be a translator?

Even though she was depressed, she didn't refuse, because Wang Yan spoke really nicely, and the key...she also liked to listen.

Wang Yan did have some purpose in coaxing her out, which was to use her as a translator.

Although most of the service staff in the store can speak Mandarin, Wang Yan can't stand the disdainful looks others look at him.

Damn it, the mainlanders are so fucking inferior!

At the end of the shopping, Wang Yan himself felt embarrassed: "Ahem, I was planning to buy it tomorrow! Thinking of you, a local, by my side, saved me from running around like a headless fly..."

Wen Shuyao snorted: "Do you think I believe what you said?"

Wang Yan laughed: "Well, in order to thank you for your selfless help, I will buy you any gift you want!"

Wen Shuyao said straightforwardly: "I want to drink!"
