Chapter 26 Road

  When Zhou Ying leaned over, Su Nan's body tensed up and then relaxed again. He knew that Zhou Ying was now in a state of mind where she just wanted to find someone to rely on, so that her mood could calm down.

  But Zhou Ying suddenly hugged him, and when she said those words, Su Nan couldn't sit still.

  It is undeniable that Zhou Ying is a beauty. For a beauty, eating a mouthful of garlic is a simple matter, but what about afterwards?

  Although Sunan is not an antique, he is a sentimental person. In his heart, to have a sexual relationship with a girl, he needs to take on the subsequent responsibilities. Moreover, he has never been in bed with a girl before, this is a precious psychological feeling, he wants to give his first time to the girl he likes.

  "Zhou Ying, you don't have to do this, as long as you work hard, life will get better and better." Su Nan's face turned a bit red, hastily speaking words of consolation to Zhou Ying, worried that she would impulsively do something even more provocative.

  "Su Nan, don't you despise me?" Zhou Ying's face suddenly turned pale. "My body is clean, I've been protecting it very well, no one has bullied me."

  "I believe." Su Nan nodded solemnly. "Zhou Ying, since you were able to protect yourself well in the past, it's even more important to cherish and finally give yourself to the person who likes you the most."

  "It's just too hard." Zhou Ying's emotions changed again, and she started crying. "For a girl like me without any education background, it's not easy to change my fate at all. Some girls we worked with before, they just agreed to those men and then they had houses, cars, wore beautiful clothes, and wore luxurious jewelry. Which girl doesn't like these things? But relying solely on my own efforts, I can never get them."

  "Now in the company, I'm being harassed by Gou Changren all day. That bastard Zhao Zong actually set up a trap with him to harm me today, I don't want to stay in the company anymore. Tomorrow I'll go find someone to support me."

  "Su Nan, just agree with me, tonight, I'll be yours!"

  "No way!" Su Nan firmly refused again. "Zhou Ying, since you don't want to work in the company, why not just quit and find another job? Why must you be so self-destructive? With your work experience, it shouldn't be hard to find another job."

  "What's the difference? For someone like me who has nothing, can't find anything better, and can only do this job. It's just jumping from one pit to another, and it won't change my situation at all." Zhou Yun shook his head helplessly.

  "After this conversation, her emotions had more or less stabilized. 'Xunan, thank you for accompanying me, my mood is much better now. Don't mind what happened earlier. Also, I hope you don't look down on me, I'm not that kind of person, it's just that my heart was a bit messy earlier, so I acted like that.'"

  "Uh, I know how you feel, don't worry, I won't look down on you." Looking at Zhou Ying's slightly flustered expression, full of helplessness. Su Nan knew that she was extremely insecure right now. After all, having just gone through that past experience, Zhou Ying realized that her usual persistence had little significance. If it weren't for Su Nan tonight, she would have already been taken advantage of. But Su Nan couldn't always be by her side, sooner or later she would fall into trouble. At that time, looking back at her persistence, how ridiculous would it seem?

  "Zhou Ying, why don't you change jobs?" Su Nan advised after some thought.

  "But I don't know what to do." Zhou Ying said vaguely.

  Su Nan also shook his head in distress. He had just arrived in this city and was still struggling to establish himself, so how could he help Zhou Ying? "Why don't you start a small business?" Su Nan asked tentatively.

  "I also want to, but I don't have that much funding." Zhou Ying's face fell. She had also been struggling outside for a few years, but in the end, she didn't have much leftover money.

  "How much is needed?" Sou Nan asked again.

  Problems that can be solved with money are not problems, the problem is having no money. This is a very dialectical sentence. Zhou Yun now encounters this problem, but Su Nan does not think it's a problem.

  Men think of protecting women, which is a natural psychological activity. It's not that Su Nan wants to help Zhou Ying just because he has feelings for her, but it can be confirmed that Su Nan doesn't have any dislike towards Zhou Ying. Helping her out when he has the ability to do so is very normal.

  Zhou Ying's mind was a bit messy, and she didn't think much about it. When Su Nan asked, she naturally said her thoughts. "I had planned to sell clothes, rent a store with a good location, pay three deposits and one rent, plus decoration costs would be around 100,000 yuan. Handling various procedures and stocking up on goods would cost another 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, and I'd also need to prepare some working capital. In total, opening this store would require 200,000 yuan. Where would I get that much money?"

  "Two hundred thousand?" Su Nan quickly calculated, "Zhou Ying, just make preparations and go find a suitable store first. As for the money issue, don't worry about it, I'll lend you some when the time comes."

  "You've just come from the countryside, where did you get so much money?" Upon hearing Su Nan say this, Zhou Ying looked at him in surprise. "If you have that much money, why bother coming to the company? Isn't doing other things better than working here?"

  With a sheepish smile, Su Nan's face showed a hint of embarrassment. "At that time, I had just arrived in Pucheng, you know, I was like you, just a young man from the countryside, without any so-called diploma. Suddenly entering the city, I was completely lost and didn't know what to do. So I randomly found a place to settle down first. After this period of adaptation, I already knew how to expand my own path in this city."

  "What are you going to do?" Upon hearing Su Nan say this, Zhou Ying had already forgotten her own affairs and shifted her thoughts onto him.

  "I also want to do things by myself." Sunan said firmly, expressing her own thoughts.

  "Ah, that's good." Zhou Ying forced a smile and nodded in agreement with Su Nan's idea. When she heard earlier that Su Nan wanted to lend her money, Zhou Ying was indeed surprised and delighted. But now, upon hearing Su Nan's plan again, her surprise instantly dissipated. Su Nan was just a country bumpkin, how much money could he possibly have? Maybe 200,000 yuan was possible for him, but definitely not more. If he were working in the company, lending that amount to himself might be feasible, but now that he said he also wanted to start his own business, of course, he would need to use that money first.

  "Su Nan, what do you plan to do?" Despite the bitterness in her heart, Zhou Ying still considered Su Nan as a friend and he had said that he was willing to help her, so she asked him with concern, wanting to understand.

  "You know, I'm skilled in medicine, to put it bluntly, my level is very high." Sunan's expression was extremely confident, "I can completely make a name for myself with my medical skills in this city."

  "But... " Zhou Ying hesitated, "Su Nan, you may not know that to see a doctor, one has to go to the hospital. Doctors all need to have a practicing certificate. Without certification, it's illegal and will result in fines. In severe cases, one can even be arrested."

  "Of course, I know." Su Nan smiled slightly. "But when a patient is ill, do they need a certificate? If the condition is severe, do they need to be fined? The hospital can't cure it, and the patient doesn't need to be arrested, right? If you don't want to die, you can come find me and try."

  "Hehe——" Zhou Ying finally burst out laughing, and the gloom of the whole evening dispersed with this laughter. "Su Nan, quickly look up, why do I see several cows running on the ceiling?"

  "Haha, Zhou Ying, don't be unbelieving, when the time comes and you see someone coming to ask me to treat their illness, then you'll know."

  "Fine, I'll just wait for that day to see who will be the one walking blindly and fall into this pit." Zhou Ying chuckled with a great mood, her usual cheerful personality restored.

  The two of them chatted and laughed for a while, then Su Nan reminded Zhou Ying again, "Zhou Ying, since you've made up your mind, we'll resign together tomorrow. At that time, you can go find a store, and after finding one, let me know. As for the money, don't worry about it, I'll prepare it for you within three days. When you need it, just notify me."

  "No... " Zhou Ying saw Su Nan still saying this, and suddenly hesitated again. "Su Nan, aren't you going to start a business? You also need money, how can I borrow from you again?"

  "I don't need it." Su Nan directly shook his head in denial, "My medical skills are money bags, if you want money just reach out and take it."

  "But... don't you need to find a place? This kind of special license is more troublesome to handle, you need to get everything stamped and approved, and the money spent won't be just a little. Zhou Yun saw that Su Nan didn't understand anything and wasn't reassured, "Or, why don't you just forget about it and partner with me instead? I'll lend you the money, and when the time comes, we can split the profits six to four. Let me tell you, Su Nan, I've actually studied this clothing business, as long as it's managed well, it's very profitable."

  Seeing Zhou Ying's anxious look, Su Nan knew she was doing it for his own good and didn't interrupt her. He just smiled and waited for her to finish speaking. "Zhou Ying, you don't have to worry, I don't need to find a place or go through the formalities of getting a license because I'm not practicing medicine openly."

  "What are you going to do then?" Zhou Ying was confused, if not practicing medicine openly, how could he treat others' illnesses? Was he supposed to run onto the streets and stop someone randomly, "Sir, I think you're ill, let me treat you"? That's either a scam or madness.

  "I only need to cure one, and then let them spread the word by mouth. Naturally, there will be people who come to me voluntarily." Su Nan said confidently.

  "What's this? How can this be?" Zhou Ying cried out again, "In that case, your business is also too unstable. Without a business, you'll have a hard time holding on."

  "Don't worry, I have a plan in mind." Su Nan said with a smile, but didn't explain further. Lately, he had been thinking about his own path and what to do next, and he already had a plan in mind. However, his relationship with Zhou Ying wasn't close enough yet, so he wouldn't fully explain it to her.

  "Alright." Zhou Ying let out a sigh, "Su Nan, don't worry, if things really can't be done, come find me. At that time, as I said earlier, I'll hand the store over to you, you be the boss, and I'll work for you, with a 60-40 split of the profits."

  "Then I'll come find you and ask Sister Zhou for a meal." Su Nan joked with Zhou Ying.
