"What is this white box you brought back?" Lin Shu asked after finishing his meal, turning his gaze to the small white box Xie Mingshan threw on the table.

"Oh, I bought it for you." Xie Mingshan squatted aside to tease the cat. Hearing this, he got up and brought the box over, and said as if offering a treasure: "Take it apart and have a look."

"What are you doing? It's so mysterious." Lin Shu was puzzled, wiped his hands, opened the box, and revealed a watch.

"Damn it! Where did you buy it?" Lin Shu took out his watch, and he was in a bad mood.

The watch that Xie Mingshan brought back is a commemorative watch made by Omega to commemorate the [-]th anniversary of Apollo’s moon landing. It is black and gold, with a silhouette of Apollo’s moon landing on the dial, and a footprint printed on the moon on the back. With feelings, Lin Shu liked it the first time he saw it.It's a pity that Associate Professor Lin's information is really lagging behind. When he found out, this watch had been sold out for more than a year, and the price was [-] less. After saying a word, I didn't expect him to bring back a piece.

"How much did you spend?" Lin Shu didn't care about being moved, and the soul of Grandet occupied the high ground of reason first: "Did you get it from someone else? It's not worth tens of thousands, right?"

"Don't care how much it costs, just say whether you like it or not." Xie Mingshan spent a lot of time buying this piece, and now he took it out quite complacently, hugging Lin Shu from behind proudly, took off the watch and put it on Lin Shu's hand, Commented: "The watch chain is a bit long, I'll adjust it for you later."

"Farewell, for such an expensive thing, let's go to a watch store." Lin Shu glanced down at his watch, and said subconsciously, only to realize that the topic had gone all over the place, and frowned, "No, I told you before." The money on the card is used for financial management, where did you get the money to buy the watch?"

"The bonuses and cash that were issued two days ago, such a wad." Xie Mingshan made an exaggerated length comparison with his hands: "It happened that my friend received this watch for me, and I gave it to him as soon as I changed hands."

With so much money, why not buy a watch.

After hearing this, Lin Shu felt distressed to death, and turned his attention to the money: "Why didn't you discuss it with me when you bought such an expensive item?"

Before Xie Mingshan bought rings, gemstone cufflinks and other expensive accessories, the commemorative significance was greater than the practical value, and it was a bit inappropriate. Xing, although Lin Shu felt that it was a waste, he didn't say anything.But the watch is different, a watch worth more than [-] yuan, but a car is gone, the number is really unacceptable.

If I had known this, I should have had a good talk with Xie Mingshan when he bought cufflinks casually.Lin Shu frowned and thought.

"Don't be so disappointing." Xie Mingshan didn't expect that he had carefully prepared a gift, not only did he not get compliments, but he was also criticized harshly, and immediately became a little unhappy: "Do you think it's easy to buy an out-of-print watch? I spent a lot of money on it. I only accepted it because of Jin, not because you like it."

"But it's useless in my hands." Lin Shu realized that he was speaking in a hurry, took a deep breath, and explained patiently: "It's not good for me to bring such an expensive watch to class. You bought it at home Let it go, waste it."

"Then you usually wear it." Xie Mingshan let go of Lin Shu's hand, walked away by himself, sat on the sofa, and said unhappily: "Boying and the others all wear 10,000+ watches, which makes you look shabby Like."

Lin Shu's heart trembled.In summer, Tao Zhang was on vacation, and the five of them went out for a meal together. The weather was hot, and everyone was wearing short-sleeved clothes, showing three famous watches. , I didn't expect to be heard by Xie Mingshan.

"I just ranted a few words casually, why do you take it seriously." Lin Shu's originally accumulated anger dissipated immediately, feeling pained and moved, he followed to the edge of the sofa and sat down next to Xie Mingshan.

"It's not that you can't afford it. You can't afford it if everyone else has it." Xie Mingshan spoke very domineeringly, but his tone was flat, obviously angry.

"I was wrong, okay?" Lin Shu didn't want to quarrel with Xie Mingshan, so his tone softened, and he said to Xie Mingshan like a child: "This watch is the most expensive gift I have ever received, and I like it very much."

"Hmm..." Xie Mingshan took the soft rather than the hard, seeing that Lin Shu compromised first, his expression softened, but he didn't speak.

In the past, Lin Shu would change the topic at this time, so as not to get stuck, but this time it was different. Lin Shu felt that it was necessary to communicate with Xie Mingshan, so he paused, and with Xie Mingshan's black face, he continued: "Mingshan , I am very touched that you can think of buying me a watch, but such a large sum of money, shouldn't you tell me before you spend it?"

"Speaking of which, would you buy it?" Xie Mingshan said bluntly, "Besides, I wanted to give you a surprise."

"It's not that I bought the whole family and went to drink the Northwest Wind, it's just a month's salary." Xie Mingshan didn't think there was anything wrong with him, and the more he talked, the more angry he became: "I didn't earn much before, so I saved some, but now If you don’t dare to buy anything, then there’s no need for it.”

"It's true to say that, but we won't have children. If we want to take care of ourselves, it's always right to save more money." Lin Shu sat up straight and said seriously, "And you don't think that since you became After becoming a manager, did you spend too much money?"

"What does it mean to spend a lot of money?" Xie Mingshan's expression became serious, and he said, "Except for this watch, I haven't spent any money in the past few months."

"And that cufflink." Lin Shu reminded.

"There are still cufflinks, but I haven't bought anything else. I didn't even buy a piece of clothing. How can I call it a waste of money?"

In fact, it's more than that. In the past six months, the number of times the two of them went out to eat has increased significantly, and it's not as good as it used to be. It often costs four or five hundred for a meal. Xie Mingshan never counts the money spent, but Lin Shu spends every The pens are all recorded in the account, and there is even a monthly consumption line chart. It is obvious that after Xie Mingshan's work got on track in June, the consumption of the two of them has also continued to rise.

But it's too boring to say that.Since Xie Mingshan became a manager, the work pressure has obviously increased several times. The psychological pressure is high, and he will subconsciously choose to spend money to relieve the pressure. If he even has to bring up food and shopping one by one, Lin Shu himself feels unbearable, so he thought about it. Thinking again, he said as tactfully as possible: "I know you didn't spend money randomly, but I also hope you can discuss it with me. This is our home. If you can refer to my opinion when making a decision, I will Will be very happy."

Holy shit, I've never talked to anyone like that in a roundabout way.After Lin Shu finished speaking, he gave himself a thumbs up first, and felt that he had really matured.

Xie Mingshan was particularly fond of Lin Shu's set. As long as he softened first, Xie Mingshan couldn't freeze immediately. He quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "I didn't expect it. I shouldn't have discussed it with you. I will pay attention to it in the future."

"That's the way it is. Anyway, the watch can't be returned, so I just put it on." Lin Shu took off the watch, handed it to Tao Zhang, and complained.

"Isn't that good? I thought someone gave me a watch worth tens of thousands of yuan, but no one gave it to me. You just got cheap and acted like a good boy." Tao Zhang took this piece and looked left and right, and by the way strongly criticized Lin Shu. : "I thought you asked me to come out because of some emotional crisis. It turned out to be this matter, student Lin Xiaoshu. Now I very much suspect that you just want to show off to me."

"Show off your wool." Lin Shu sipped his coffee, "I just don't feel at ease."

"What?"

"I used to always think about when I would buy a lottery ticket and win a few million. Now that Xiaoxie is earning money, this few million may be reached soon, but the money comes too fast and too much, and I always feel that I can't keep it. , Maybe it will be gone tomorrow." Lin Shu frowned, and said: "And I can feel that Xiao Xie is obviously floating now, which makes people quite worried."

"Why are you floating?" Tao Zhang became interested and stopped playing with his watch. He looked at Lin Shu and asked, "Go out and start hooking up with little boys?"

"What are you thinking about?" Lin Shu rolled his eyes at him, and said, "It's that kind of feeling, especially restless, not as calm as before, you understand."

"It's not always like this when you get promoted." Tao Zhang said disapprovingly: "I was the same at that time. The sense of accomplishment came spontaneously when I had more money. I scratched my heart every day, always feeling that I could do more work and earn more money. With a lot of money, I am the most valuable person in the world.”

"Then you are seriously ill." Lin Shu commented indifferently.

"You salty fish won't understand the expansion of youth." Tao Zhang retorted: "Xiao Xie has become a manager, and his lifestyle will definitely change. Don't be surprised all the time, it looks too new. The world has come."

Due to his limited career, no matter how well Lin Shu did in school, he could not make money as quickly as Tao Zhang, Xie Mingshan and others. He had no experience in promotion and getting rich, he accepted Tao Zhang's words with suspicion, and persuaded himself to accept it. These changes.

"But this change is too big." Three months later, Lin Shu was wearing a formal suit, and while delivering fruit to his mouth with his mobile phone, he complained to Tao Zhang: "It is said that there is a reception, where you eat and drink. Kind of, asked me to come over to play, and I came, but it turned out that the ostentation was too big."

Xie Mingshan sent Lin Shu a QR code in the morning, saying that there was an event in the evening and he needed to attend, and asked Lin Shu to join in the fun.

Lin Shu thought it was nothing more than a party with a buffet, and just didn't want to be alone in the empty room, so he went happily, but after being led to the venue by etiquette, he found that the party was so luxurious that it made one's legs weak.

"Seeing a lot of business tycoons who can only be seen on TV, I feel that the class between myself and Xiao Xie is rapidly separating." Lin Shu looked at the business tycoons coming and going in front of him expressionlessly, and said to Tao Zhang at the scene. It was rebroadcasted: "I saw Xiao Xie, he is very handsome today, talking to a big guy with Lu Zhou."

"Aren't you going to say hello?" Tao Zhang asked on the other end of the phone.

"No, it's not good to be seen by Luzhou." Lin Shu took another sip of champagne and continued: "I seem to have seen what you said before, the client who is looking for your colleague to file a divorce lawsuit wants to separate from his wife." The one with a fortune of [-] million."

Lin Shu's sense of unreality surged up again, the four baroque pillars were connected with colorful curtains, the huge crystal lamp in the center of the roof exuded brilliant brilliance, and people in suits and leather shoes gathered together in groups , holding champagne, and seemed to be having a good conversation.All of a sudden, a veteran singer surrounded by backup dancers walked onto the central stage, the music started, and the lively singing spread to every corner of the hall.

At this time, after Xie Mingshan finished speaking, he left Luzhou for a distance, searched for something in the crowd, and finally saw Lin Shu, raised his wine glass, and smiled brightly at him amidst the noise.
