Chapter 9 Don't be a yellow-haired person and call others monsters
Chapter 9 Don't be a yellow-haired person and call others monsters
I originally wanted to take a shortcut and, like many children, get some support from my family.
I didn't expect that as soon as I put forward my idea, it was completely blocked by a stingy person.
Before, Fan Wumian had laughed at this street-slicker, cheap dad who had accomplished nothing. But after talking with Silly Old Fan, he was shocked to find out how naive he was.
It turns out that the poor one in the family is not Silly Old Fan, who owns an 860-square-foot mansion and is worth millions of Hong Kong dollars, but himself, who only has more than Hong Kong dollars.
This means that if he wants to live a good life in the future, his debut plan must be successful, which puts Fan Wumian under great pressure.
If he were to live his life over again, he wouldn't want to end up doing odd jobs on a film crew or singing in a pub.
School is about to start, so there is no rush to start planning formally.
In the next two days, I continued to visit some free attractions, went to the Peak to overlook the night view of Victoria Harbour, walked on the sea and beach near Clear Water Bay, and also enjoyed the free car exhaust and sea breeze in Central.
Sometimes, when I was lying on the bed in the bedroom around seven o'clock in the evening, I could hear the sound of piano coming from next door, including "Kikujiro's Summer" and "River Flows In You", which were both songs that Fan Wumian liked very much in his previous life.
It seems that Zhuang Muxi, who lives next door, really took his words to heart.
It’s a pity that there is no mobile phone, otherwise Fan Wumian would definitely send a few text messages to tease the piano goddess. Since they went downstairs together to throw away the garbage, the two have not had a chance to meet.
In a blink of an eye.
The day school starts.
Although Silly Old Fan was unreliable, he still left some money on the dinner table as usual, as living expenses for Fan Wumian for the next week. There was no way to save on things like tuition and information fees.
A penny can make a hero fail. Fan Wumian stood there for several seconds, but finally chose to reach out and pick up the money. He counted it and found that there was 370 yuan.
We don't cook at home all year round, and basically eat out for three meals a day. As a port city in a developed area, the cost of meals is particularly high, and this money is almost only enough for food.
How much living expenses are given each week depends mainly on the thickness of Silly Old Fan's wallet.
From previous memories, the money was sometimes as high as five or six hundred, and sometimes as low as one or two hundred. This directly determined whether Fan Wumian had to eat three or two meals a day, and he often had to buy expired bread to fill his stomach.
If the nutrition was not so poor, maybe my current height of 182cm could grow even taller.
It was not until he was about to open the door that Fan Wumian remembered that according to school rules, he still had to wear a school uniform.
He hurried back to his room and changed his clothes, probably a white shirt with black trousers and a dark red striped tie.
There is a school emblem printed on the chest pocket with the words "Trinity Anglican College" written on it.
In his previous life, the school uniforms were so ugly that no one wanted to wear them. This Hong Kong-style school uniform really suits his looks. If his skin was a little whiter and he wore a pair of glasses, he would look like a good student who is a top student.
Not only the clothes and pants, but even the belts and leather shoes were of the same style. Full of expectations for the campus atmosphere of Gangcheng, Fan Wumian came to the door again. As soon as he opened the door, he happened to see Zhuang Muxi who lived next door.
The girl was also wearing a white shirt and a thin tie, paired with a skirt and pants, revealing her long, straight, white legs. Her black socks were pulled below her knees, and she was carrying a brown leather backpack with a "Puff Dinosaur" doll from Pokemon hanging on it.
She is like two completely different people from the "braces girl" I had in my previous impression. Her cold and aloof temperament that seemed to keep people at a distance has not changed much.
But she didn't seem so pretty before, and people would easily ignore her when she was aloof. But now it's different. After taking off her braces, she dressed up specially. Even Fan Wumian couldn't help but take a few more glances at her before raising his hand to say hello, "Good morning, what a coincidence."
Zhuang Muxi thought that it was not a coincidence. She had been standing at the elevator entrance for more than ten minutes and was almost late.
Fortunately, the posing was effective. Seeing Fan Wumian looking her up and down several times, she was quite happy.
Compared to the changes in herself, Zhuang Muxi was more surprised by the huge change in Fan Wumian. After changing his hairstyle, he suddenly became much more handsome, and it seemed that even his temperament was different from before.
She raised her arm and moved her fingers, staring at Fan Wumian without blinking, and said:
"You weren't like this the last time I saw you. I almost couldn't recognize you. This hairstyle suits you better."
Fan Wumian smiled and said:
"You too, sitting in front of the piano with long flowing hair, I don't know how many men you will charm. You can try to be an Internet celebrity in the future. The climate of Taiwan is really good for people. Not only is it easy to produce beautiful women, but also beautiful voices. When you speak Mandarin and act coquettishly, will it be sweet enough to make people feel numb?"
"."
Zhuang Muxi had only just learned Cantonese in the past two years, so she didn’t quite understand what “Internet celebrity” meant. While waiting for the elevator, she tucked her hair behind her ears and said in Mandarin:
"You're so annoying. Some of my friends use a very spoiled tone when they talk, but I'm not used to that."
"Like that~"
Fan Wumian imitated the words and was immediately overwhelmed with joy.
The two of them entered the elevator together, and as soon as they went downstairs and reached the roadside, his good mood came to an abrupt end.
Because when his friend Mantis Xiao Tingwei saw Fan Wumian, he was inexplicably tickled and laughed:
"Brother Tianwang, you're actually wearing a school uniform! You even shaved your hair off! You must have drunk too much alcohol and ruined your brain! Hahahaha!!!"
Look at my bad friend Mantis who lives in the same building. He is only wearing jeans and a white shirt, and is carrying a cross-body bag.
At their age, it is easy for them to regard not wearing school uniforms as "breaking the rules" and become complacent and proud of it.
Raising his middle finger, Fan Wumian replied:
"Childish, don't be so naive, and call others monsters. Now I have changed my ways and turned over a new leaf. Listen to my elder brother's advice. The martial arts world is not about fighting and killing, but about starting a business and making a fortune. From now on, I will study hard."
Mantis Xiao Tingwei might have thought that he was joking, he was laughing so hard that he squatted on the ground holding his stomach and couldn't straighten his back. The main reason was that Fan Wumian, the last in the school, actually said that he wanted to start studying hard!
Seeing his friend coming, Zhuang Muxi smiled at Fan Wumian and walked towards the school alone. It was only three or four hundred meters away from here, so there was no need to take a bus.
Laughing is laughing, but you still have to look at the beauties.
Mantis Xiao Tingwei looked at Zhuang Muxi's back and asked:
"Brother Tianwang, who is this pretty girl? Why does she look so familiar? And she's wearing our school uniform?"
Suddenly thinking of something, the mantis' eyes widened instantly and shouted: "Ya!"
Before he could even yell out the insulting nickname, Fan Wumian slapped him on the back of the head and said:
"Brother, let me teach you another lesson. Just like every fat person has potential, the same goes for the girls in school who are not good at dressing up. It's best not to offend anyone. If you can't find a girlfriend in school, will it be easier to enter the society? There are only a few months left before graduation, so you should work hard..."
