When I said that Penelope was lying and cheating, her mood did not change significantly. She still said to me calmly: "I remember telling you last time that there are too many inconveniences for the two of us living together. , lifestyles and habits are also very different, why do you have to embarrass me again and again, and then continue to entangle with me endlessly."
I responded calmly: "Don't say that. Did I pester you? What I miss is that house. If you move out, I will never look for you in my life."
Penelope nodded and said: "I believe this, but my name is clearly written on the real estate certificate, so what's the point of your concern?"
I said to Penelope seriously: "Can we put ourselves in someone else's shoes? If you had lived in a house for more than two years and suddenly moved out, how would you feel? In the city of Suzhou, we don't have a house. Wandering, I really long for a place to stay, especially at night. You will never understand the panic of having nowhere to go. It’s very depressing and helpless.”
Penelope was silent.
I was also silent. At this time, it was not just the house that caused us conflict, but also the class barrier. This barrier prevented us from understanding each other, and we each persisted, torturing each other in the persistence.
After a long time, I said to Penelope with doubts: "Actually, you must ask me to leave, for example, to find the police to solve the problem. I have to leave. Why have you never done this?"
Penelope raised her head and looked at me. After being silent, she said, "You are not bad enough to call the police to deal with you."
I smiled and said, "Then I'm really lucky. I'm lucky that I wasn't bad enough."
It was obviously a sarcastic remark to Penelope, but she said to me seriously again: "You can help guard that restaurant and become friends with such a woman. You are definitely not too scumbag. It's just that life and feelings have given you too much." Pressure, that's why you look like a person who does all evil, but in fact your cynicism is just to make yourself feel better."
I looked at Penelope a little absent-mindedly. She was the one who had seen me the most clearly over the years. At least Wesley, Zoey, Hayden, my closest friends, had never said this to me. The deepest in my heart. The tight knot seemed to be gently twitched by Penelope, but it was not completely pulled away, but it was enough to touch my sensitivity.
I finally said to Penelope: "Are you planning to affirm my character and then make me embarrassed to entangle you in order to keep you safe? Don't play tricks with me. I have gone to school and I understand the gentle policy."
Penelope was silent, with a helpless expression. She was helpless and refused to accept my hard and soft words, and I already knew her bottom line. If I just refused to leave, there was nothing she could do to me, and I would naturally not give her another chance to take advantage of her. I was locked in my room, wondering how someone as smart and alert as me could possibly fall victim to the same woman three times.
I am not ashamed of my behavior in pestering Penelope. At least she still has a mansion in this city. If I force her away, she will not experience the kind of wandering with nowhere to go, and of course I will not be in vain. If you live in that old house, I will pay you the rent.
This is what I was thinking at this time. If Penelope can compromise, it will be a happy outcome for us. Indeed, she is a beautiful, rich, and beautiful CEO, but this does not mean that I must like her. Or trying to figure her out, so I really don't need to pester her. As long as she is willing to rent this house to me, I don't have to bother her for the rest of my life.
After thinking for a while, I said to Penelope, who had been silent all this time: "Why don't you rent the house here to me? Don't you still have an apartment in Willow Bank Scenic Garden? You can go back to live there, and you only need to leave a bank." Give me your card number, and I will put the rent into your card every month, and we won’t even have to meet in person. How nice.”
Penelope didn't accept my proposal at all, and said with an angry face: "You were so determined to move out last time, why did you change your mind now?"
"I'm just a scoundrel, living a life of vacillation. Besides, I thought I would find a suitable house if I moved out, but it was either too expensive or too far away from my company. I was unhappy wandering around, so of course I wanted to live back. "
Penelope looked at me dumbfounded and said, "Your reasons are really sufficient, both subjectively and objectively."
"Of course, I've always done things right."
"But don't you think you are going too far? How can anyone force someone to rent a house to themselves?"Penelope said to me patiently.
I yelled, "Is this too much? Why don't I call all my friends now and ask them to comment and see which one of us is more outrageous? Really, you are just like the bully and bandit in the past. Using money to rob us poor people of their lives."
Penelope finally lost her patience, picked up her handbag from the table, stood up and said to me: "I won't rent the house to you if I don't have time to be with you, so stop fantasizing about it."
I followed Penelope out of the noodle shop and wanted to continue talking with her. Anyway, it would be best to settle the house matter tonight.
Penelope was afraid that I would catch up with her, so she walked very fast, and her high heels clicked on the concrete floor. I was not slow, and took a few big steps to block Penelope's front. Then I stopped her and used He said in a threatening tone: "Do you want to rent or not?"
Before I finished speaking, I suddenly felt a twitching pain in my stomach. I immediately covered my abdomen and squatted down. I hadn’t eaten all day, and I had just overeated. How could my stomach, which is not in good condition, withstand such a pain? Stimulate.
Penelope took advantage of me squatting on the ground and walked around me, but she didn't care whether I was alive or dead.
"Do you have a fucking conscience? My stomach hurts. Are you just going to watch me die?"
Penelope stopped and looked back at me: "Why, are you planning to cheat on me again? I just made it very clear to you that I will not rent the house to you."
I was twitching in pain and could even feel the sweat on my forehead.
Penelope finally came back to me, squatted down and looked at me, still suspiciously asking: "What's wrong with you?"
"Didn't I just tell you that I have a stomachache? Are you too embarrassed to refuse to save me? Last time when you had a fever, did I cook ginger soup for you and buy you medicine?" I frowned and twisted my face. said.
"You are still fussy at this time. Did I say I would not save him until he died? I will call an ambulance."Penelope said and took out her mobile phone from her handbag.
"Which planet are you a monster parachuted from? Do you have any common sense about life? I just have a stomachache. What kind of rescue do you call? There is a pharmacy a hundred meters to the right across the road. Go buy those quick-acting chewable tablets for stomachaches. I Just chew two slices.
Penelope looked at me dissatisfied and said, "This is it, why don't you just say a few words to save your energy? Okay, I'll go right away. You wait for me here."
I grinned and said, "Hurry up, I'm going to be so hurt."
Penelope nodded, then trotted across the road and looked at her back. I sat on the ground, feeling another throbbing pain.
I heard that today is a holiday, so I will add another chapter, three chapters today. .
