Going to work? Even a dog wouldn't go!

Chapter 59, Fellow sufferers
"Dad, I've got my eye on a sports car."

After guessing what everyone was thinking, Zhang Xian took the opportunity to make a request. Although the Wenjie M8 that his father bought was good, the car still looked a bit old-fashioned and didn't quite match Zhang Xian's age.

Young people like cars that are more stylish.

Zhang Xian has been thinking about buying a car these past few days, but if he buys it directly, his dad will definitely say he's wasting money and is a spendthrift.

This is a good time to bring it up.

"purchase!"

"If you like it, just buy it!"

Zhang Dongshan answered decisively, but he immediately asked in a low voice, "Xiaoxian, what kind of car are you interested in? How much does it cost?"

Zhang Dongshan did make some money during this period, but it only amounted to a little over two million yuan. He really couldn't afford a very expensive sports car.

“Dad, you don’t need to spend any money. ‘Apple Fragrance’ and ‘Decent’ have earned me a lot of money, which is enough.”

Zhang Xian is much richer than his father Zhang Dongshan right now, so he has no intention of letting his father pay for a sports car.

"Alright, if you like it, buy it!"

Zhang Dongshan actually wanted to advise his son to save money and keep it for buying a house and getting married.

But it's not appropriate to talk about this today. Let's just do whatever makes us happy.

"Xiaoxian, with your current conditions, finding a girlfriend shouldn't be difficult at all. What do you think of Qiaoqiao?"

"She seems quite interested in you. How about I introduce her to you?"

At this moment, Zhang Pandi spoke again.

Before Zhang Xian returned, she was chatting with Zhang Laidi about how to help her younger brother Zhang Xian get over his heartbreak as soon as possible. The two of them ended up having the same idea as Han Ziwei.

The best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one.

Zhang Pandi immediately thought of her good friend Lan Qiaoqiao. When they had dinner together last time, she felt that Lan Qiaoqiao seemed to have a crush on her younger brother, but at that time Zhang Xian was still dating Chu Yourong, so she didn't plan to match them up.

Now that my younger brother is single, I might as well give it a try.

"Hello, Qiaoqiao!"

“Her figure is like a model’s, even better than Chu Yourong’s!” Zhang Laidi quickly chimed in.

Zhang Xian hadn't expected this kind of "breakup perk," and he reluctantly nodded, "We can try to get to know each other."

Zhang Xian couldn't help but recall the visual impact of Lan Qiaoqiao's long legs when she sat in the passenger seat.

How can you not love such a gentle, long-legged beauty!

The whole family had a lively meal together, and Zhang Laidi and Zhang Pandi decided to stay at home.

Zhang Xian's eldest sister, Zhang Xinan, and her husband, Zhao Shuyang, were going home. Zhang Xian took them to the entrance of the alley and then took out the gifts he had bought for them while shopping earlier from the trunk of his M8.

"Elder sister, brother-in-law, this is for you."

Having acquired the "Master Angler" skill, Zhang Xian has been busy practicing it these past two days. He hasn't yet sent the gifts to his older sister and brother-in-law, so he'll have them take them back today.

"Xiaoxian, it's not a holiday, why are you giving me a gift?"

"Besides, this is way too expensive!"

Zhang Xinan was momentarily stunned when Zhang Xian handed her the LV and Chanel shopping bags.

“I made money, so I bought copies for Dad, my fourth sister, and my fifth sister. ‘Decent’ was so popular, and I got a lot of money out of it!”

"Thanks, Xiaoxian!"

“There are suitable girls at our school, and I’ll help you find one.”

While Zhang Xinan was still pondering whether to remind his younger brother to be frugal, Zhao Shuyang had already accepted the gift with a smile and even winked at his wife.

"Brother-in-law, you'd better keep your word!"

Zhang Xian was exhausted and a little sleepy, but after hearing Zhao Shuyang's words, he immediately perked up. This brother-in-law was a teacher at Beijing University of Science and Technology, so he had access to quite a few high-quality resources, such as beautiful female teachers and innocent campus beauties.

Of course, most of the school beauties of this era may no longer be innocent, but their looks are definitely still on point.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you!"

Zhao Shuyang had only said it casually, but Zhang Xian seemed to take it very seriously, so he made a mental note of it.

Anyway, my brother-in-law Zhang Xian is a good catch. I reckon the young female teachers and students at school would like his type. If the introduction goes smoothly, they'll even thank me.

After watching his older sister and brother-in-law get into a taxi, Zhang Xian turned around and walked back. But he hadn't gone more than a few steps when he saw a familiar figure under the streetlight.

Pang Fei was squatting under a streetlamp, holding a can of beer in his hand. He looked like he had just been crying and was still sobbing softly.

"Brother Fei, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xian quickly walked a few steps closer.

Pang Fei probably didn't expect to run into an acquaintance so late. He was startled by the sudden voice, looked up and saw that it was Zhang Xian. He wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, stood up, and said calmly, "It's nothing, I just got some sand in my eye."

"I thought you were heartbroken like me."

Zhang Xian casually remarked.

"So, today's news is true?"

Pang Fei naturally saw the news, but Chu Yourong later deleted the breakup post, leading some netizens to speculate that they might have gotten back together.

"The breakup has been going on for a few days, but it was only announced today."

"Alas, we are all fellow sufferers in this world!"

Pang Fei sighed, then said with a mournful face, "However, I'm much worse off than you. Not only did I break up with my boyfriend, but I also lost my job."

"They say misfortunes never come singly, and I've certainly experienced that now!"

People are often like this: if someone around them is just as miserable as they are, or even more miserable, they are more likely to open up to them.

Pang Fei, who originally didn't plan to tell Zhang Xian about his experiences, stopped hiding it when he heard that Zhang Xian had even lost his celebrity girlfriend. After all, he needed an outlet for his frustrations.

"Xiaoxian, wait for me a moment."

Pang Fei said something and then ran straight to the supermarket. When he came back, he had several cans of beer, sausages, and peanuts in his hand.

Let's chat for a bit!

In the alley, elderly men and women sat on small stools chatting and playing cards. Pang Fei pulled Zhang Xian to sit down, then opened two cans of beer and handed one to Zhang Xian.

"I just finished my project yesterday and received a layoff notice today."

"What the hell is this company that's my family? It's all a lie. When it's time to get out, there's no room for negotiation!"

Pang Fei grumbled and complained as he gulped down a large mouthful of beer.

Zhang Xian also took a sip and comforted him, "It's just a job. If you lose it, you can find another one. With your abilities, Fei-ge, finding a job won't be difficult!"

"Xiaoxian, I just can't stand it!"

"Since joining the company, I have been conscientious and hardworking, and I have almost never left work on time. This month, in order to meet the project schedule, I have been working overtime every day!"

"When the project ended, our entire team was laid off. Wasn't that just like using someone and then discarding them?"

Zhang Xian listened quietly. He had limited work experience and couldn't offer much advice.

"I told Xiangxiang about this, hoping for some comfort, but she just broke up with me, saying she didn't feel safe with me!"

"What the hell is this sense of security?"

"Isn't it just because they look down on me for not having a job and not being able to earn money?!"
