Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Depends on the situation."

Du Xiaojuan composed herself and answered Wang Dashan's question seriously.

"It still depends on the situation? How so?"

Wang Dashan asked doubtfully.

Du Xiaojuan said:

"If I fell in love with that uncle, then even if he didn't offer me all sorts of superior conditions, I would still agree to be with him; but if I didn't fall in love with that uncle, then I would definitely politely refuse his kindness. In my view, money can buy the vast majority of things in this world, but it cannot buy family affection and love. So, when it comes to love, I'm still relatively pure. I won't fall in love with someone because of money, and of course, I also don't hope someone falls in love with me because of money. Money, I have hands and feet, I have ability, I can earn it myself. Why must I sell love, sell my soul to exchange for it? What essential difference is there between this and going out to sell?"

Hearing Du Xiaojuan's words, Wang Dashan couldn't help but nod in agreement.

He felt Du Xiaojuan was absolutely right!

Money can be earned through one's own efforts; even if one can't earn that much, what one earns oneself, holding it gives peace of mind. Why exchange it by selling one's soul?

In this life, what a person pursues certainly isn't just the single thing of money; there are many other beautiful things worth yearning for, worth our dedication!

"Du Xiaojuan, thank you. Your words truly woke me up!"

Wang Dashan thanked Du Xiaojuan from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, he had already made a decision in his heart and regained his former calm.

"No need for politeness. We're friends; why say polite words? Say, you wouldn't happen to have been fancied by a rich woman, would you?"

Du Xiaojuan asked half-jokingly.

Wang Dashan laughed embarrassedly, then chose to be frank:

"You really hit the mark. I actually was fancied by a rich woman. The conditions she offered were truly too tempting, to the point my heart hesitated and wavered. But after hearing your words, I've decided to go politely refuse her kindness tomorrow."

Du Xiaojuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. If Wang Dashan hadn't resisted the temptation, she didn't know how disappointed she would be.

"It's normal for you to be fancied by a rich woman. Who told you to be so handsome and have such a good figure!"

Du Xiaojuan teased with a smile.

But undeniably, Wang Dashan is indeed very handsome, his features regular with few flaws.

As for his figure, it's even more impeccable. A height of around 1.8 meters, and he still maintains the eight-pack abs trained in the army.

With these conditions, it would indeed make many girls who judge by appearance fall for him in an instant.

When Du Xiaojuan went to the computer store to buy a computer back then, she fell for Wang Dashan at first sight — it was love at first sight.

Cheng Cheng's feelings toward Wang Dashan were actually the same. The first time she saw Wang Dashan, she developed a good impression of him, which is why she was willing to let Wang Dashan show her the villa.

One can only say this world is a sensory world; it's just this realistic.

A beautiful woman's beauty has a natural advantage when acquiring social resources; a handsome man's appearance also has the same bonus points.

Appearance actually influences temperament.

A man with a handsome appearance generally has a more confident temperament, finds it easier to communicate with people, and gets along with them.

While a man with an ugly appearance will seem inferior and sensitive in temperament, interacting with people will be more difficult, forming an introverted, inarticulate personality.

The most typical examples are Wang Dashan and Wang Xiaohua. These two brothers, clearly born of the same parents, but as time passed and they gradually grew up, because of their different looks, their environment shaped completely opposite personalities for them.

Wang Dashan isn't smart, but he's tall and handsome, so his personality is open and generous.

Wang Xiaohua is very smart, but he's ugly and short, so his personality is inarticulate.

"Right, didn't you say you wanted to start a company before? When do you plan to open it? Zhang Zhihao and I are both waiting for you to act. I've earned quite a bit from e-commerce recently, sitting in the bank with nowhere to spend it. I want to hurry up and invest in you, to be a major shareholder of your company!"

Du Xiaojuan said this line at this time.

On the surface, her words seem meaningless, seemingly just meddling to ask out of concern.

But in reality, they hide deep meaning.

She's telling Wang Dashan that if he really lacks money that much, he can borrow from her. There's truly no need to sell his body and soul to accompany an old auntie in exchange for money.

"Right now I'm already familiar with all the operational processes of real estate agencies. I can open a company anytime. However, the Spring Festival is coming up soon, so let's wait until after the New Year to open it!"

Wang Dashan felt immense gratitude toward Du Xiaojuan in his heart.

There was a moment when he even wanted to tell Du Xiaojuan his true inner thoughts, tell her he wanted to be with her. But thinking that he had achieved nothing in his career yet, while Du Xiaojuan already counted as an entrepreneurial boss with minor achievements, the gap between them was still a bit large. Better to wait until he achieves some results, then confess — that would be better.

Love is like this; it always makes one feel humble.

When facing Cheng Cheng, although the economic gap was large, he never felt humble. When Cheng Cheng offered conditions, he never even thought about whether he was worthy or not, nor would he feel unworthy just because he didn't have a city. That was because he fundamentally had no love for Cheng Cheng.

But toward Du Xiaojuan, he had love from the bottom of his heart. So even confessing, he had to consider whether he had equivalent conditions to match her.

"Good, good. Then I'll wait for your good news!"

Du Xiaojuan smiled gently.

Then she took the initiative to say:

"Regarding opening a company, I count as relatively experienced. When the time comes, if there's anything you don't understand, just come ask me."

Wang Dashan said:

"Then thank you in advance. You're really good to me. It's not early. Are you sleepy? If you're sleepy, go to sleep. You have to work tomorrow."

But Du Xiaojuan said:

"I'm not too sleepy. What about you? Are you sleepy?"

Wang Dashan said:

"I drank a bit of alcohol with colleagues tonight. I'm different from others. Others drink to help sleep; the more I drink, the more awake I get."

"Then shall we chat a bit more?"

"Alright..."

"Speaking of which, there's a really popular chat app lately called WeChat, similar to QQ but much cleaner. Want to download and try it? Lots of clients are already using WeChat now."

"Sure, I'll go download it later."

"Once you've downloaded and registered, remember to add me as a friend. You can find me by searching my phone number."

"Okay..."

The two chatted on and off.

As if they had endless things to say.

Before they knew it, it was already nearly three in the early morning.

Finally, because Du Xiaojuan's phone was about to run out of battery, they reluctantly hung up.
