Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Cheng Cheng's words dealt a massive shock to Wang Dashan's inner heart, like a calm lake surface suddenly struck by violent wind and huge waves.

This violent wind and huge waves made his originally firm inner heart begin to waver.

However, he still did not make an immediate decision; he still needed to consider a bit more.

After all, this kind of matter, once the bow is drawn there is no turning back the arrow; once you put down your dignity and face to do it once, a brand impossible to shake off will be left for a lifetime.

That evening returning to the rental house, Wang Dashan suffered insomnia.

He tossed and turn thinking for a long time.

But ultimately did not think out a result.

Sometimes he thought, why not just go along with Cheng Cheng; anyway she isn't old to the point of being unacceptable, on the contrary she retains her charm, her body carries a kind of allure that young women like Du Xiaojuan cannot possess, she can be called the finest of the finest.

But then he thought again, as long as he chooses to swallow this temptation, his life seems from then on to lack a little something; as for what specifically, he also cannot say clearly, anyway it would make him no longer his original self.

"Maintain the original heart, only then can you achieve the end!"

This sentence, back in the army his old class monitor often said to him.

He always kept it firmly in mind, and used it to encourage himself.

This original heart, does he still want to maintain it?

If he maintains it, he will lose a great opportunity; relying solely on his own effort, he estimates a lifetime would also be impossible to earn so much wealth as Cheng Cheng possesses.

But if he does not maintain it, he will lose his original self; if even his original self is lost, what difference is there from a walking corpse?

The next day Wang Dashan went to work sporting dark circles.

The company held a small celebration for him; Liu Xiuxiu this Sales Director praised Wang Dashan in front of all employees, and even issued him in advance the commission for this luxury mansion deal!

This luxury villa bought by Cheng Cheng, the company had actually been following for over two years, never able to sell it; this time it was actually sold by Wang Dashan.

So Wang Dashan receiving praise was entirely deserved.

Normally commission only arrives at next month's mid-month when salary is settled, but this time the company's financial affairs side made an exception, deliberately today, in front of all salespeople, giving the commission to Wang Dashan; the purpose of doing this was to motivate other salespersons, let others have higher enthusiasm to sell houses.

Fifty thousand commission, by the time it reached Wang Dashan's hand it wasn't actually fifty thousand, just over forty thousand, because taxes had to be paid; but this money was also the largest sum Wang Dashan had earned so far; he held the money in his hand, heavy and solid.

Although there was joy, it was not as excited as imagined.

At this time he even felt somewhat absent-minded; he just thought, if he agreed to the conditions Cheng Cheng offered, the money he could get would definitely be much more than what he held now!

By evening, Wang Dashan treated colleagues to a dinner; during it he was toasted quite a lot of wine; a colleague joked, was it that the rich woman took a fancy to him, otherwise the villa couldn't have closed so fast; also said if she did, he must not miss the chance, after all that way he could struggle for who knows how many fewer years!

The speaker had no intention, the listener took it to heart.

Wang Dashan laughed and denied it, but inside he secretly sighed with emotion.

Yeah, that way he could struggle for who knows how many fewer years?

And what is the purpose of struggling?

Isn't it for money? For a comfortable life in the future?

If an opportunity is placed before you, letting you have money without struggling, letting you live a comfortable life without struggling, then why still struggle?

But, but again... but he really isn't that kind of person.

The education received from childhood up, let him maintain conscience and morality, making it very hard for him to cross that threshold.

Past eleven o'clock at night, Wang Dashan took a taxi, drunk and hazy, back to the rental house.

Wang Erhai was already asleep.

Wang Dashan again tossed and turn, insomnia, unable to sleep.

Under alcohol's effect, his brain suddenly short-circuited; unknown where the courage came from, he actually dialed a call to Du Xiaojuan.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, this late looking for me, anything the matter?"

From the phone came Du Xiaojuan's slightly groggy voice; very obvious Du Xiaojuan had already slept, then was woken by the mobile phone ringtone.

"No, actually nothing much, just called to chat a bit..."

Hearing Du Xiaojuan's voice, Wang Dashan instantly sobered up mostly.

He began to regret a bit making this call so late, felt he really had a brain fart.

"Then it's perfect, I also wanted to find someone to chat; anyway can't sleep either; your work still okay?"

Du Xiaojuan laughed in reply; she told a kind lie; actually she was already sleeping in a daze; if someone else called her this late to idle chat nonsense, she would absolutely be angry, even curse "are you sick"; but if this person is Wang Dashan, she wouldn't be angry; on the contrary, she'd be quite happy.

"Pretty good, I just closed a big deal, earned fifty thousand yuan."

Wang Dashan shared his joy with Du Xiaojuan.

"You've only been doing real estate sales not long, yet actually closed such a big deal; I discover you're truly a sales genius! Although you don't have a glib tongue, don't have flowery sweet talk, you give people a very down-to-earth, very trustworthy feeling; I think this perhaps is the reason you can achieve results."

Du Xiaojuan did not stint on praise.

Wang Dashan was praised until he felt a bit embarrassed.

Actually he does sales really without any skill; whatever is the case he says it, just follows one principle: truthfulness!

To return to the topic, Cheng Cheng having a good impression of him, isn't it also because of this truthfulness of his?

If he changed this truthfulness, would the other party still treat him as before?

Perhaps due to alcohol stimulation, Wang Dashan's brain was a bit chaotic; thoughts popped out disjointedly.

"Du Xiaojuan, I want to ask you a question, hope you can answer me honestly."

Wang Dashan suddenly spoke this sentence, making Du Xiaojuan involuntarily a bit nervous.

Because her first thought was, Wang Dashan probably wants to ask her that kind of question.

She gently bit her lip, and before Wang Dashan could even open his mouth to ask, she nearly couldn't help but say the three words "I'm willing."

But the reserve in her inner heart still made her maintain restraint; she feigned calmness and said:

"You ask, I'll definitely answer you honestly."

Wang Dashan then asked:

"If, I'm saying if, if there was an old auntie... no, if there was an old uncle, and he wanted to be with you, and offered you extremely superior conditions that would let you struggle half a lifetime less, and this old uncle was a pretty good person, and looked pretty handsome too, would you agree to be with him?"

Du Xiaojuan was stunned, then couldn't help but laugh dryly, feeling a bit lost in her inner heart.

She completely didn't expect Wang Dashan would ask such a question.

She had thought Wang Dashan calling in the middle of the night was to ask if she was willing to be his girlfriend?
