My Choices Became Real - Chapter 21
Chapter 21 Opening the Door to a New World
Li An ate his noodles and habitually opened Weibo. He thought for a moment and looked at the rankings on the trending list.
That video was ranked 15th now. Could it be that it was still rising?
This should not be, but it was not a big deal.
Li An glanced at the first few topics.
“Only wanting the bottle cap but not the milk? It’s said that a large number of dairy products have been poured into the drains.”
“Tsk tsk tsk.” Li An shook his head lightly. They really had too much money to spend and were wasting it.
This had happened in his previous life. It was nothing more than voting for a popular celebrity in a program and buying milk in large quantities. No one drank the milk, and it was wasted in the end.
After eating the noodles, Li An specially looked at his pants to see if his pants were shorter. Oh, he was wearing shorts, so it was fine.
On the way back, he was stopped by Auntie Zhang. They chatted for a while and she wanted to treat Li An to ice cream. However, such a purposeful treat made Li An feel uncomfortable. He left without answering.
He slowly returned home and saw that his parents were still busy. Since he had nothing to do, he sat at the side and read his novel.
He was engrossed in it when Chen Meifen kicked him. Then, she walked past him and said, “Go, go, go. Don’t get in the way!”
Li An looked at the large empty space in front of him and a question mark appeared above his head.
Then, on this day, Li An was scolded a few times. He was scolded for having trash in the trash can, for eating and smacking his lips, for playing with his phone every day without doing anything, for not reading educational books, and so on.
Damn, he could not stay in this house anymore!
That night, Li An held his phone and said, “Mom, my classmate called me for dinner. I won’t eat at home tonight. I’ll stay in East River City tonight.”
Chen Meifen revealed an amiable smile, “Alright, go out and play with your classmates more. Don’t spend money recklessly. Come, take the two bottles of honey with you.”
Looking at the warm smile on his old mother’s face, Li An fell into deep doubt. He felt that he was very unnecessary.
Therefore, Li An took the two bottles of honey and drove all the way to a barbecue stall.
Today, a classmate indeed looked for him to have a meal. Li An was not lying about this. It was Yang Kai.
At the barbecue stall, Yang Kai seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
“Brother An!” Yang Kai watched Li An get out of the car with a smile.
This smile made Li An a little afraid. He touched his arm and said, “What’s up?”
Yang Kai was not angry. Instead, he continued to smile, “Thanks to you, Dad gave me a large sum of living expenses.”
For a moment, Li An had many thoughts.
Was Idiot Kai hinting at something? Could it be that after so many years, he was finally going to acknowledge Li An as his father? Therefore, he was hinting that he should give him some living expenses?
However, Yang Kai did not wait for Li An to speak and interrupted his thoughts, “I showed my father your video and introduced you to him. My father gave money to me at that time!”
Li An sat down and picked up a meat skewer. He raised his eyebrows and looked at him, “What does this have to do with me?”
“It’s like this.” Yang Kai explained, “My father felt that since you have such high cultural attainment, you’re definitely a decent person and will definitely be promising in the future. Therefore, he approved of me befriending you and even gave me a sum of money.”
Li An nodded and asked curiously, “How much?”
“Not much, two million.” Yang Kai took a bite of the skewer and said excitedly, “But it’s already enough for me to be carefree for a long time.”
Two million…
Hmm, it’s indeed not much… My ass! It was only now that Li An felt that it was fine. In the past, even if it was not an astronomical figure, it was still a huge sum.
Li An glanced at his good friend. He seemed to have to get to know Idiot Kai again. In his previous life, he had not discovered that his good friend was a rich second-generation heir. Therefore, in his previous life, he had also been low-key and hiding his wealth?
After knowing that Li An was also a rich second-generation heir, he did not hide anymore?
Yang Kai suddenly leaned over and whispered with a wretched expression, “In order to repay Brother An’s kindness, I’ll bring you to a good place tonight. My treat!”
Li An looked at his wretched expression and immediately understood what he meant. He could not help but smile disdainfully and shake his head.
‘Is this the kind of friend your father asked you to befriend? Who are you trying to test?’
Li An leaned over and whispered, “Is it safe?”
“Don’t worry, it’s a foreign hotel and isn’t checked. It’s definitely safe!” Yang Kai patted his chest and guaranteed.
“Hmm?” Li An discovered that Yang Kai had misunderstood, but this was very good. Although he did not know what this meant, it should be reliable. He asked again, “I mean in terms of health.”
“Of course! Double safety!” Yang Kai smiled, “Don’t worry, the place I brought you to is only short of a health certificate!”
Li An looked at him deeply and felt that this was not the first time this guy had gone. He immediately said strangely, “Isn’t your father quite strict with you?” Yang Kai’s smile did not change, “That depends on the situation. My father has never objected to me making friends, but he used to think that I only made friends with hooligans and was afraid that I would learn bad things.”
“I think you’ve already learned bad things.” Li An rolled his eyes and felt that he was tempted.
In his previous life, he had a girlfriend and was not a virgin. However…
Some things were different.
“How is that possible?!” Yang Kai chuckled.
Li An tilted his head and hesitated. As an “honest person”, he had never experienced such a thing in his two lifetimes. That illusory principle was testing his mind, so he said, “Aren’t you afraid of being discovered by your father?”
Yang Kai shook his head. “No, no. At most, my legs will be broken.”
It was an exaggeration, but Yang Kai knew that his father tacitly agreed to this.
What kind of brother was the best?
The kind that went through danger and enjoyed life together.
Moreover, after his son could tell right from wrong, it was time to let him have more money. Otherwise, he would not know how to spend money.
If he wanted to earn money, he had to learn to spend money first. If he did not know how to spend money, how could he earn money? Therefore, he could not act poor all the time. If he ended up like a loser, he would be finished. How could he accept the family business in the future?
If he wanted to earn money, he had to change his thoughts. Time was more valuable than money. However, this was a high-level thought process. He had to start by knowing how to spend money.
Therefore, his son was already an adult. As long as he did not violate the law in the future, he could do whatever he wanted.
