Isn't It Just Money?
Song Ping'an is a married 30-year-old "uncle".
There is a well-behaved daughter in the family named Song Lele.
He has a wife named Cai Yiyao, who is of average appearance but has a slender figure and long, thin legs.
This weekend marks the fourth week that Song Ping'an been "on vacation" at home, enjoying family time with his wife and daughter.
Song Ping'an took his beloved daughter to the amusement park in the afternoon and returned home covered in sweat.
While preparing dinner, he listened to Cai Yiyao speak gently to him in her clear, melodious voice:
"How many times have I told you not to buy snacks for your Nannan from outside? She just won't remember!"
"It's a waste of money and it affects the child's appetite!"
Don't you know what our family's situation is right now?
"You take kids to the amusement park every week? Don't you understand that kids are immature?"
"This family is now entirely dependent on me. The little money I earn running bars will be squandered by you two sooner or later!"
Song Ping'an brought the dishes to the table and watched his wife forcefully change their daughter's clothes. The daughter looked uncomfortable but too scared to make a sound, which made Song Ping'an feel a little sorry for her.
Unable to contain herself, she retorted in a muffled voice, "It's not as exaggerated as you say! Don't I bring home a salary every month?"
"How dare you say that?!" The man's rare retort ignited the woman's fighting spirit.
Cai Yiyao released her daughter Song Lele, stood up, glared at Song Ping'an, and shouted, "At least you used to be a full-time employee of Philanthropy Group, with commissions and year-end bonuses. What are you now?"
"What a load of crap, joining a Resource Team! They're eating like crazy, buying houses one after another, while you haven't earned a single Point!"
"I just don't understand, we're all men, so why are you different from everyone else?"
"I don't even expect you to earn enough to buy many houses, you could at least contribute some savings to the family! You haven't given me a single penny!!"
"Now it's even worse, they don't even get a share of the Resource Team! Why don't you go back to such a great company like Universal Love, instead of staying in that lousy the Academy and wasting your life?"
Look at yourself! You stay at home all day long, have no job, no income, what kind of human being are you!
Song Ping'an silently served the rice.
for a long time.
He said to his wife, "Don't be angry, let's eat first. I'll look for a part-time job tomorrow."
"Eat, eat, eat! Eat my ass!" Cai Yiyao got angrier and angrier, pushed away her rice bowl, and turned to leave.
"Where are you going?" Song Ping'an asked as he chased after her out the door.
Cai Yiyao, wearing high heels, said irritably, "Where else can I work and earn money!"
He watched his wife's figure disappear quickly into the distance.
Song Ping'an silently closed the door.
His daughter Song Lele, gently tugged at his sleeve and asked, "Daddy, did I do something wrong to make Mommy angry?"
Song Ping'an squatted down, gently hugged his daughter, and said, "My dear Lele, you did nothing wrong. It was Daddy who made Mommy angry."
Song Lele blinked her big eyes and thought for a moment.
She said cautiously to Song Ping'an, "Dad, I don't want to go to the amusement park next week."
Song Ping'an was slightly taken aback. "Why? Are you tired of playing here? How about we switch to the water park in Second Region?"
Song Lele's eyes lit up.
Then it quickly went dark again.
She shook her head and said, "I don't want to go anymore. I want to stay home and help my mom fold clothes."
Song Ping'an frowned. "Did your mother tell you this?"
"No, it was my own idea." Song Lele seemed lost in memories. "She used to smile when I helped my mom fold clothes, but I haven't seen her smile in a long time. I wanted to help fold clothes."
Song Ping'an stroked his daughter's head, feeling a pang of bitterness in his heart.
He took a deep breath.
Smiling, he said to Song Lele, "Lele is such a good girl. How about Daddy helps Lele fold clothes and makes Mommy laugh?"
Song Lele nodded vigorously and grinned happily.
The two sat down at the table to eat.
Not too fast, not too slow.
Clean up the dishes after you finish eating.
I watched some interesting stories about climbing towers.
I kept putting my daughter to sleep until she fell asleep that night.
It was 11:30 p. m.
Cai Yiyao, reeking of alcohol, opened the door and staggered home.
Song Ping'an quickly poured some hot water to make tea and brought it to her, then wet a towel to wipe her face.
Cai Yiyao impatiently pushed his hand away.
He pulled a card from his chest and threw it on the table.
Song Ping'an picked up the card and saw the words "Yue Lun Group Yuelun" written on it.
As expected.
This is Chen Hansheng's signature move after the rise of the Philanthropy Group —using World Tower props to carve business cards.
That's so cool and stylish.
This led many smaller groups to follow suit.
This indirectly caused the price of props used to make business cards to skyrocket.
In particular, the price of ordinary items like [Fuel Card] with around 300 floors has jumped from seven or eight thousand yuan to nearly twenty thousand yuan.
Even so, demand still exceeds supply.
One reason is that items from level 300 are not easy to obtain.
On the other hand, it's also because [Fuel Card] are the most authentic "Chen Hansheng raw materials".
Those who followed suit took pride in using [Fuel Card] as their business cards.
The fact that this so-called "Yue Lun Group" can use such authentic props as business cards suggests that it must be quite powerful.
only..
Song Ping'an thought about the location of the business card.
I feel a little unwell.
He showed Cai Yiyao the famous film and said, "Didn't you say you'd only be responsible for sales and no longer drink with customers?"
Reeking of alcohol, Cai Yiyao slumped into a chair, covering her face with a towel. "These days, who cares about you if you don't have a couple of drinks with someone while you're selling alcohol?"
"But," Song Ping'an said in a muffled voice, "Isn't it inappropriate for those guests to be so handsy?"
Cai Yiyao straightened up and said with a sneer, "What? You think I'm embarrassing you? Then you should earn some money for me to spend!"
She became more and more agitated as she spoke.
The voice grew louder and louder. "Do you know how much this card is worth? Twenty thousand!"
"If you're so capable, try inserting one of those cards into my hole yourself!"
"I can earn 20,000 a day. If you want to get your hands on one of these cards, you can insert it however you like!"
"You're incompetent and can't earn money yourself, yet you have the nerve to smugly criticize me! If I didn't go out and sell myself, you and your daughter would starve to death!"
Song Ping'an warned in a low voice, displeased, "Keep your voice down and don't wake the child! The company pays me my salary on time every month now. Five thousand a month shouldn't starve me, right? I'll try to find a part-time job tomorrow. I should be able to earn a little over ten thousand a month, enough to support my family."
"Enough my ass!" Cai Yiyao scoffed, kicking off her high heels. Too lazy to say anything more, she got up and headed to the bathroom to wash up.
Song Ping'an silently put the shoes away and followed her into the bathroom. Through the door, he whispered, "Wife, I'm begging you, please don't go back to working at the bar. Wouldn't it be better if we went back to our peaceful life?"
"Before?" Cai Yiyao's voice came from inside the door. "I was blind to marry a good-for-nothing like you! If I had known I would be poor my whole life, I should have agreed to the blind date my family arranged for me to marry that fat guy. At least he owns a supermarket, earns millions a year, and has no worries about food and clothing!"
He was constantly being yelled at and insulted.
Even a clay figure has a temper.
Song Ping'an, unable to contain himself any longer, retorted, "If you regret it so much, it's not too late to go now!"
"Call"
The bathroom door suddenly opened.
Cai Yiyao walked out with a livid face, glaring at Song Ping'an and saying, "You can't make money yourself and you want to blame me? Let me tell you, Song, you forced me into this!"
The argument between the two was interrupted by Song Lele's crying.
Song Ping'an quickly went into the bedroom and hugged his daughter.
Cai Yiyao also walked to the bedside, sighing with a somber face.
Song Lele cried loudly and said to her, "Mommy, don't be angry... Lele won't go to the amusement park... Lele will help Mommy fold clothes."
Cai Yiyao was stunned.
Song Ping'an gritted his teeth.
She pursed her lips and frowned as if she had made up her mind. "It's just money, right? I'm going into the tower tonight! You take good care of our daughter!"
Cai Yiyao saw him clenching his back teeth.
I suddenly felt a little panicked.
He quickly asked, "What do you want to do?"
Song Ping'an stood up, looked around with lingering affection, and finally his gaze fell on his daughter.
She said softly, "It's just an ordinary item from the 300th floor. You can get it as long as you go up 300 floors."
