My Life with Narration

"Damn it, I'm drinking with you out of kindness, and you're making money off me? I'll strangle you!"

In the car, Su Qing had his hands around Wang Xing's neck, shaking him fiercely, wishing he could strangle this guy.

After all, he drank until he threw up yesterday just to help this guy cheer up, to untangle his emotional knots.

Yet what happened? This guy ended up perfectly fine, even made 800 bucks, while Su Qing was left cleanly taken advantage of.

"Cough cough... Qingzi, control yourself!" Wang Xing rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, pleading.

Although Wang Xing still didn't look well, he had recovered quite a bit. Unlike yesterday, where he was a complete wreck; that drinking session did help to some extent.

"Control? Control what, damn it? Tell me, what happened yesterday?" Su Qing shouted.

Wang Xing quickly escaped Su Qing's deadly grip, then replied pitifully, "I wasn't asking for money, she just threw it at me!"

He proceeded to recount last night's events, animatedly, as it was his first encounter with a wealthy woman looking to "sponsor" a young man like him.

"Qingzi, you don't know, I was so scared at the time, I thought the woman might have been from some organ-harvesting gang trying to take you to a slaughterhouse to cut out your kidney!"

"I chased the car for a long distance but couldn't catch up, that's why I didn't go looking for you!" Wang Xing said, looking excited.

But since he knew this guy made 800 bucks, he wasn't believing a word of it.

"You didn't catch up, so you didn't look for me? When I was out of it, I was out cold for your sake, and you gave up on me over mere hundreds?" Su Qing questioned.

At this, Wang Xing timidly held his thumb and index finger apart, "It's 800 bucks!"

Su Qing: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

"I know it's 800, do you need to remind me again?"

"Even if it's hundreds, you shouldn't abandon me!"

Regarding his anger, Wang Xing sighed and continued, "How could I do that? I kept calling your phone, and later a woman answered; it should be the person who took you away."

"I asked who she was, she said she was your Aunt Shen, told me not to worry, even mentioned your name, which put my mind at ease. Otherwise, how could I have not looked for you?"

"But speaking of which, Qingzi, this Aunt Shen of yours... she's maintained herself well. When did you hook up with her?"

"Not to sound like a brother, but you should cut it off before anyone knows, or your parents might break your legs. Moreover, her husband finding out won't go well. Grab the spoils and run fast, just this car alone is worth over two million, what more do you want."

Su Qing: (╬￣皿￣)

Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that this guy still hadn't fully recovered from his prior blow, Su Qing would've smacked him already.

He did like older women, but who said he liked married ones?

Though guys in school often jokingly spoke of the allure of older women, dreaming of a sugar mama, nobody took it seriously. At least he hadn't seen such a case close to him. So how did he end up being seen as a gigolo for older women?

"Aunt Shen, my ass. Her name is Shen Yi, Yi like in heart, what kind of ears do you have, and we're not involved, stop making stuff up about me, or I'll beat you up!" Su Qing took a deep breath and then said seriously.

"Shen Yi? So, she wasn't actually an aunt, what a scare. I was wondering why she looked so young. But wait a minute, no connection between you two, so what's up with this car?" Wang Xing asked puzzledly.

"The car isn't mine either!!" Su Qing shouted.

He proceeded to recount how last week he almost got into a car accident, which left Wang Xing completely dumbfounded.

After a moment, Wang Xing widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Really? When you told me back then I didn't take it seriously. Are you okay, no injuries?"

This made Su Qing angry enough to laugh, "Come on, it's been so long. If something had happened, I'd already be well past my seven-day memorial!"

Back then, this guy was too busy trying to rank up with the goddess to bother with him, and now, the goddess has left him, and the virus has stalled, so the simp intelligence has regained the high ground.

The delayed response was just too long. Had something happened to him, he wouldn't have even made it to his own funeral.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xing awkwardly laughed, he couldn't help it; he really did contact Jiang Mengting more frequently during those days, thinking he had a chance, only for it to end in disaster.

"So you're saying she was here to repay your kindness? Nice, brother. Is this a case of using oneself as collateral?"

"This woman may be a bit older than us, but they say 'an older woman is a treasure,' having a few more treasures isn't bad, especially when she's a rich woman. Look at this car, so imposing, something we can't hope to achieve in this lifetime, and she just hands it to you like that, I'm envious." Wang Xing changed the subject.

He genuinely was envious; when tested with this kind of car, what man could refuse?

Hearing this, Su Qing was completely speechless, spitting, "Get lost, what are you thinking? She just knew I could drive and didn't have time to send me, so lent me the car to drive back. Besides, you saw her yesterday, with her looks and situation, how could she fancy me?"

Wang Xing: "That's true!"

Su Qing: ...

Seeing him sighing from time to time, Wang Xing thought he was regretting something and comforted, "You really having feelings for her? Get it together, you can't handle someone like that!"

To that, Su Qing sighed, "Nonsense, I'm heartbroken over the million, don't you know, just a bit more and the person sitting in front of you would be a millionaire."

Yes, every time he recalled Shen Yi's words that morning, his heart ached: How does this daughter have such poor judgment? Just give me the money, throw it at me, just like this car, shove it to me. I'd hold back just a little before accepting, after all, I'm not that noble.

If not the full million, then half a million, twenty... ten thousand, or even eight thousand would do. It's better than this car, which can't be sold for money.

"You haven't got a fever, have you? How come you're this muddled?" Wang Xing touched his forehead doubtfully.

Su Qing: "Get lost. By the way, if you aren't using that twenty thousand, lend it to me first, I'll return it in ten days to a month, with interest!"

Without hesitation, Wang Xing agreed, "Okay, but forget about the interest. How about giving me a ride in this car tonight?"

Without female distractions, Wang Xing's financial situation improved significantly. If it weren't for the past incident, never mind anything else, that twenty thousand would've definitely gone down the drain. So, it ended up being fortune out of misfortune.

"What are you thinking? "Going for a ride," this car gets crashed, the two of us wouldn't be enough to pay for it. Also, give me half of that 800!"

"Why should I?"

"Because it was me who was sold... cough, anyway, half is mine!"

Wang Xing: →_→

"You still say there's nothing between you two? I've figured it out, romance is overrated. Getting a rich woman is the way to go. Ask your Aunt Shen if she has any friends, I don't mind if they're a bit older, I'm tired of bitter love; I want a taste of sweetness now."

[A simp is called a simp because they're hopeless. Even though Wang Xing appeared this way, he still hadn't fully shed his simp ways, his path continued.]

Su Qing: Σ(゜ロ゜;)

He never expected that even after all this, Wang Xing still held onto thoughts about that woman, truly living up to a simp's name.

Su Qing helplessly replied, "Give it a couple of days. I'll eat more candy.'

"Why?"

"Aren't you about to get a taste of sweetness? I'll get diabetes and serve you up some!"

Wang Xing: ...
