Power and Wealth

Eight in the morning.

Jingcheng, taxi into the city.

I found a department store and got out of the car. Dong Xuebin and Zhong Lizhen went in to buy clothes. Dong Xuebin bought a coat that was not very expensive. After all, the suit he had stolen from someone else before, he was not used to wearing it, and it was dirty. But when Dong Xuebin found Zhong Lizhen and saw the clothes she was wearing on her body, he was speechless for half a day. It was a new white coat, and it was because the department store was a little old. Otherwise, there were no such work clothes sold elsewhere, and no one would buy them.

“You want this? ”

“Well, that's it. ”

“Uh, isn't that a little rigid? ”

“It's okay, I'm used to it, check it out. ”

Zhong Lizhen didn't carry any money. Naturally, he wanted Dong Xuebin knot. He found out that his wallet counted and paid the bill. It was quite expensive, eighty-five.

By the time Dong Xuebin turned around, Zhong Lizhen had tied the white coat. He didn't look like a scientist, but like a full doctor.

“Shall we go?” Dong Xuebin Dao.

Zhong Lizhen didn't know where to find a book, nodded his head, took a pen and wrote it a few times, “Coat, eighty, I'll pay you back.” After a pause, she collected the invoice and took care of Dong Xuebin's invoice for his clothes. He wrote: “Your jacket is 399. This is because I threw away your old clothes, so it counts on me. The cost of taxi before is mine, 156, which is...”

Dong Xuebin hastily said: “Ouch, you're welcome. ”

Zhong Lizhen didn't listen, brushed down the note, “One size at a time, well, although some things are still unclear, but I wrote them all down. ”

Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly. He is not used to calculating too clearly with people, but he also understands Professor Zhong's last name. He has been dealing with research data for many years. He must not be wrong at all. An error in a number can also lead to the experiment failure, which is why he developed this last name. Dong Xuebin will not be more genuine with her. Zhong Lizhen's brain is more rigid. He is also more genuine for nothing.

A moment later, Zhong Lizhen finished remembering, "Okay. ”

“Shall we go to the bathroom?” Dong Xuebin asked.

Zhong Lizhen frowned, "I don't like that kind of place, go to the hotel to wash it. ”

“Well, we'll just take a shower anyway, so let's just follow the neighborhood and find one. ”

Both of them were covered in dust and their hair was sticky. It was definitely not possible without a bath.

… at the doorstep of a quick hotel.

Dong Xuebin and Zhong Lizhen walked in.

In front of the help desk, the female staff member smiled professionally: "Is this accommodation? ”

Dong Xuebin nodded and had to swipe his card when he found out his wallet. However, he didn't know if he had encountered it while fighting people. The bank card in there actually broke. Dong Xuebin flashed, blinked his eyes, and then flipped the remaining RMB in his wallet, only more than 400 yuan.

Dong Xuebin asked, "How much does a single room cost a day? ”

"Two hundred and sixty-six," said the female staff. ”

Expensive is not expensive, it is a fast hotel after all, but cash... Dong Xuebin helplessly looked at Zhong Lizhen, Zhong Lizhen also saw his broken bank card, as soon as he hesitated, he turned to the front desk: “Open a single room. ”

The female staff looked at them strangely.

Dong Xuebin was a little embarrassed and handed over his ID card.

"Do you two live together? That requires two people's ID cards, and two people's single rooms...”

Mainly Zhong Lizhen did not have a document and was taken away by the Institute. Dong Xuebin immediately said: “I live alone. ”

“Oh." The staff immediately registered him, but it was strange to look at them, one in his 40s and one in his 20s, without looking at them.

Zhong Lizhen is also a little unnatural, pretending to look to the side.

After the formalities were completed, the female staff gave the house card to Dong Xuebin.

Dong Xuebin and Zhong Lizhen were going upstairs when he put it away, but the female staff stopped him. “You're opening a single room, you two..."

Dong Xuebin was a little annoyed. “What happened to the two of you? ”

"- [sic]“ The lady must also have a valid ID... ”

Dong Xuebin said: "My sister doesn't live in the house, why don't we go up and talk? Why do I have to give you papers? I'm staying at a place where my friends aren't allowed? ”

The female staff silenced.

Zhong Lizhen pulled him, “Let's go. ”

Dong Xuebin just noticed that he said that a lot of people in the lobby were watching them. Dong Xuebin wiped the sweat and quickly boarded the elevator with Zhong Lizhen.

Alas, that's embarrassing.

I can't even open two studios, I have to get my card back to work.

… in a single room.

One bed, one bathroom, and basically nothing else.

After entering the house and seeing that bed, Dong Xuebin always felt a little confused, the atmosphere was too much.

“Wash first.” Dong Xuebin Dao.

Zhong Lizhen - um, went into the bathroom.

Dong Xuebin waited outside smoking a cigarette, listening to the silent noise in his ear, he couldn't help but think a little, like a needle felt.

Half an hour later.

Zhong Lizhen came out, still in the white coat, her hair was wet, and her skin felt fine, much cleaner. The white coat was not tied. The suit that Dong Xuebin stole from her was not worn anymore. She was just wearing her own white shirt. However, Dong Xuebin always felt like she could see two red dots on the drum chest of her shirt. Zhong Lizhen's bra was broken.

Vacuum!

Dong Xuebin thinks of Lian Feng!

I don't know if Zhong Lizhen found out or what. When he reached out, he tied the white coat.

“You go. ”

“Huh.”

Dong Xuebin also took a bath.

He washed quickly and came out in more than ten minutes. When he walked out, he saw Zhong Lizhen lying down on the window, putting a notebook and a pen on the bed, sweeping a glance, as if he saw another line of words underneath, as if it said something about the accommodation fee of 266.

Alas, that's pretty clear.

Dong Xuebin said: “I'm good. ”

“… hmm. ”

“What do you think? ”

Zhong Lizhen looked at the view downstairs, “I haven't been back for too long, floating around, and finally found out that this is my home, it feels good. ”

“Welcome back, Professor Chung. ”

“Hmm.” Zhong Lizhen turned around, “Your wallet still has more than a hundred, taxi should be enough, let's go, I'll take you to meet Han Sister, give you back the money, and thank you for saving your life. ”

“Sister Han? ”

“Well, didn't you mention Xie Huilan last time? Do you know anything about me or my relationship here? To make sure I'm Zhong Lizhen himself? Then you must have heard of Han Sister, who is her mother. ”
