According to the address, I came to Zhaozhao’s new home, a top residential area near the embassy district. Before entering the door, I repeatedly confirmed the address and secretly searched the real estate information with my mobile phone-the average price was 170000, and the smallest apartment was 260 square meters.
Zhao’s last home was an “old, shabby, and small” house near the Fifth Ring Road, which was rented by a group. The house was twice as old as hers.
“Teacher Lin Tien, long time no see.” I followed the nanny to the reception room and finally saw Zhaozhao. She greeted me casually, and the two beauticians beside her were doing her face and manicuring her nails. The pillow for her legs is Hermes, the trash can for her cotton pads is LV, and every small object around her seems to have a price tag and smells of money. It was hard for
me to believe that she was the same girl who bought lipstick with others two years ago.
I used to be a college etiquette instructor. Zhaozhao is a former student of mine, but she is here to take classes. Although she is dressed in a tight, deep-V, and wavy dress, she is out of place in class, but she takes notes carefully in every class, and her attitude is more correct than any other student who comes to this “idle class” to mix credits.
A girl with a good figure and appearance is persistent in learning the etiquette of the upper class, with obvious purpose-either to please the present man or to hang the future man.
However, the pace of university courses did not meet her needs. One day after class, she blocked me directly at the door of the classroom: “Do you have a small class?”? I can get people to spell lessons for you.
“Spell?” This is the first time I’ve heard this. On the day of
class, more than a dozen girls dressed up like her crowded in a hotel suite, some sitting on the bed, some sitting on the ground, white thighs in front of me, so embarrassed that I did not know where to look.
“Don’t mind, Mr. Lin. A hotel suite is only a few hundred yuan a day. It’s much cheaper than renting a conference room.” As she explained
to me, she took out her cell phone to remind everyone to “pay” before class. Girls take out the latest mobile phones from the bags of all kinds of big brands, skillfully pay group receipts, and the small number in the transaction box can not even afford to buy any accessories on their bodies.
I finally understand the meaning of “spell”. Teachers’ incomes are not high, and I used to do some private work in business training classes. A few hours of business training courses cost two or three thousand yuan. Obviously, it’s more economical to follow their “classes.”.
A room full of girls with similar needs as Zhaozhao. They are handsome and ambitious, but they have no capital, so they hold together to keep warm. From trips abroad to five-star hotels and “chance encounters” with guests, to various brands of “male color” lipsticks, including medical beauty, they can all “group together.”. And this “knowledge economy” –getting close to the selfie lessons, etiquette lessons, wine and jewelry appreciation lessons that the rich must have–is the only way for them to “learn.”. As for the assorted bags, silk stockings, and afternoon tea, which were later exposed by the “celebrity group,” they were all left over from their earlier years of playing.
“It’s called the sharing economy.” Zhao Zhao did not shy away from this, and even thought it was a great invention. She feels that compared with those college students who borrow money naked for a bottle of cosmetics, or gold-diggers who use counterfeit goods as a facade, they are all pre-Ming tea in green tea and white lotus flowers in slag women.
That day was obviously not the first time that the students had had etiquette lessons. They were not interested in common etiquette norms, but offered specific social scenarios and asked me to provide solutions.
“When eating western food, the other side ordered beef ribs. How can you eat them to look good?”
“If you eat meat and stuff it between your teeth, but the next second you want to kiss, how can you save the emergency?”
“I used to wear a very short dress, but the other person changed to Japanese food and had to sit on the tatami, and there were his friends on the table. How could I sit there without being rude?”.
From these ironic “etiquette” questions, I can almost imagine that they are careful to avoid showing their timidity in front of men and try their best to show their sexiness. However, it was obviously a good deal, and the “group owner” did a calculation with me: everyone only needed to share a few hundred yuan to attend classes, and immediately apply what they had learned when they went out. Even if they couldn’t get the tuhao right away, they could get a few brand-name gifts, and the cost performance was unimaginably high. I went to
this class several times later, and I could always find a new girl to fight with her. Until one time, on the way to class, the police suddenly broke in.
It turned out that so many gorgeously dressed girls had gathered in one room to attract the attention of the hotel, which in turn called the police and attracted the “anti-pornography and anti-illegal” police. It took
me a lot of effort to explain to the police that I was just passing on knowledge and that I was innocent with the girls in the room. It almost went to school later, and Zhao never looked for me again and disappeared into my life.
Two years later, Zhao suddenly contacted me, and I found out that the girl who had devoted herself to the rich and powerful family had really become a rich and powerful family.
Rich people’s money is best earned
. How on earth did she achieve a roller-coaster life transformation?
Just as I was wondering, a little boy who had just learned to walk ran out of the bedroom, called “Mom” in a milky voice, and threw himself into Zhaozhao’s arms.
“Arvin, call uncle. This is mom’s college teacher.”
I suddenly realized that dribbling is always the simplest and most direct way.
Later, I learned that Zhaozhao’s path to the top was more complicated than I had imagined. If you want to “dribble”, you must first enter the court. Real rich people are not stupid, and their circle is not a single fake socialite who can enter by sending selfies. Of course, my teaching was not enough to take photos. At the same time, she spent a lot of money to sign up for a “socialite training class” to learn “technology,” create a persona, and introduce high-quality men to provide one-stop service. The three-day course costs 50,000 yuan, and after the training, there is a week-long overseas trip, which adds up to 100,000 yuan.
Under the packaging of Mingyuan Training Course, Zhaozhao has become a senior brand public relations of a top 500 company in the world, with a master’s degree from a famous university. Through the contacts provided by the socialite training class, she attended several auction salons and successfully hooked up with a big man who was keen on collecting.
Big brother comes from a family of calligraphy and painting. According to the etiquette I learned here, it plays into the hands of the other side, in sharp contrast to those flirtatious bitches who are eager to jump up. Coupled with the lovely face created by fine-tuning, Rao is a big man who has read countless people, and he will soon be dead set on it.
In recent years, the exposure of “XX sister-in-law” has brought this kind of training class for socialites to the surface, and it has become more and more difficult for fake socialites to rise to the top. Fortunately, it was early enough to take a picture. All her lies are based on the “artistic processing” of the truth. The photos she took at school were useful in shaping her identity, and I, who was not a few years older than her, became her mentor in her college days in her script. So, after she went ashore, she decided to “return the favor,” and wanted to hold a “serious” high-end etiquette training class with me.
“But I don’t take private jobs like that anymore.” I have a lingering fear of the nightmare of being questioned by the police.
“Teacher Lin, you look down on me too much. Only when you stand high can you see far. Now I want to aim at those rich people.” The man who had waited on her came up to me with the same shrewdness in his eyes.
You know, people who are really rich need to use etiquette even more. What you know will make them look good, and eventually money will make money. “He added,” What we want to earn is the money that leaks out of their fingers. The money of the rich is much easier to earn than that of the poor. ”
This sentence woke me up. I looked at the reborn photos in front of me and decided to trust her again.
I also have an unspeakable secret. The school has been so strict these years that I can’t go out to take private jobs. I can only keep a dead salary. My girlfriend’s family urged me to buy another suite within the Fourth Ring Road because she thought the welfare housing for young teachers in my school was too biased. As
for Zhaozhao, when she spent millions of yuan in the training class for celebrities, she had to repay the other party’s high “training loan.”. Unfortunately, the father of her child was a shrewd man who could spend his money, but every penny had to come from a source, so she thought of making extra money to pay off her debts. So we hit it off.
Zhao Zhao’s actions were the same as those of that year, and she quickly recruited the first high-end training course through her husband’s connections. This time, the class venue is not a small hotel with a few hundred yuan a day, but a high-level private club. It is said that a person’s annual membership fee is 100,000 yuan.
Zhao Zhao told me in advance that the students were all second-generation rich, and that most of their parents were nouveau riche. They didn’t rise into the rich circle until they were teenagers or even adults: “Etiquette is the card they stay in this circle. If they don’t know anything, they’ll be laughed at.”
Watching them carefully follow my instructions, holding A4 paper under their armpits, trying to control their movements during the meal so that the paper would not fall, and sweat beads on their foreheads, I suddenly felt that they were essentially no different from the girls who wanted to cross the class in the small hotel a few years ago. Every time the
prey
attends class, in the courtyard where the club is located, there are tens of millions of luxury cars parked. In Gu Jia’s wife circle, almost everyone has a bag that can stand in the C position. The second generation of young people are more willing to spend money than their self-made parents, and they are better at spending money.
Zhaozhao didn’t lie to me. The money that leaked from the fingers of the rich really improved my life. On that day, I received a 50,000 yuan training fee from Zhaozhao on time, and immediately took my girlfriend to the restaurant on the 66th floor of CBD to celebrate. But just as I was exulting to describe to her the wonderful life of the second generation, she suddenly broke up.
“Break up?!” I stood up in surprise and suddenly noticed that she didn’t know when she bought the bag, and that it had the same style. “Do you have someone outside?”
“Yes, he’s my boss’s son. He’s very kind to me. At least he won’t let me fall out with my family over a house.” Before the
main course was served, she left me and left without looking back.
I stood there for a long time. Originally, love is just icing on the cake, money is timely help. At the risk of being punished, I worked hard to earn money to buy a wedding house. In her opinion, it was just a sad song of poverty. There was no pleasant sound of swiping cards. The so-called love is worthless in the face of material.
In those days, I lay in the newly assigned narrow welfare room and couldn’t sleep all night. Sometimes I think of my ex-girlfriend, and then I think of taking pictures. Seeing the “white, rich, and beautiful people” who were studying hard in class, I suddenly came up with an idea: Why should I be able to get ahead by taking care of them and packaging myself? I can also use their methods to live a good life. This is the best “revenge” for my ex-girlfriend.
I ask myself that I am handsome, but not all white, rich and beautiful are my goals. If you are too capable, you will be regarded as the successor of the enterprise by your family, and you must pay close attention to it. Too much fun, would rather go to the night show in the scum man, will not be attracted to my gentle type. When a woman ties up a man, she has to hang her appetite from time to time, while when a man ties up a woman, he has to get the eyes of the other party to look up. So, I have to find targets that are easy to control.
Soon, a girl named Xiaoxi attracted my attention. Throughout the class, she was like a little rabbit, nervously observing every move around her, afraid that she would make a mistake, but as long as I gave her a little advice, she could complete the same standard as a top student: how to use knives and forks, how to keep her posture, how to control the speed of eating.
According to the information, her family is doing foreign trade, just into the upper class, because she is beautiful, she casually play live, but also harvested a large number of fans.
I judge that such a girl, although not as rich as those old money, should have a higher chance of success. More importantly, she does not have the general white, rich and beautiful attitude, and even I can feel that she has a trace of affection for me.
That day, a boy dressed in hip-hop thought the content I taught was too difficult, kept complaining, and almost lifted the table and left. Without waiting for me to explain, Hsiao-hsi gracefully smoothed things over: “Actually, these rules are not complicated. Why don’t I show you?”
The boy covered his embarrassment with sunglasses and took the opportunity to go down the steps. Xiaoxi and I looked at each other and smiled. At that moment, I suddenly felt that I was really interested in Xiaoxi.
But after that, Xiaoxi never appeared again, perhaps because what I taught was too childish for her. Zhao Zhao once warned me that in order to ensure the high-end of the etiquette class, I should not associate students privately at will. After looking up her telephone number, I did not rashly dial to frighten the snake, but added WeChat first.
However, she never passed. Like all the young rich second generation
, Xiaoxi likes to post her life on social software. Following Xiaoxi’s mobile phone number, I found her account. The distance between
her and me is greater than I expected. Flying in and out of private jets, carrying millions of bags, clocking in to all kinds of expensive restaurants and hotels, spending my annual salary on shopping, and being a member of a supercar club. I suddenly realized that the relief in class was only out of her family education, and in the real world, I was not even qualified to be her WeChat friend.
Fortunately, there are not only “socialite” training classes, but also boys who can prescribe the right medicine. When I was in a hurry to seek medical advice, I quickly added a group to train PUA. The tuition of
the PUA training class is far more expensive than that of the socialite training class, and the users are more “diaosi”. Every day, in addition to “putting together lists,” taking photos, and creating “public persona” similar to the celebrity group, the members of the group will report “war records”: how many people have been successfully accosted, and how many have been thrown down. I am also highly educated, and I despise them from the bottom of my heart, because my goal has never been that little beauty.
I rented a sports car and went to a nightclub according to the information on Xiaoxi’s social account, pretending to meet by chance. Unexpectedly, I didn’t bother to arrange it, so I got the chance to come to the door and save the beauty. Xiaoxi, dressed in beautiful clothes, drank a lot of wine and was being pulled by several boys to get on the bus.
“Let her go!” I darted up and pulled little Sheila behind me.
“Why is it you again?” Only then did
I see clearly that one of the boys was the rich second generation who made trouble in the etiquette class. Several of them approached together, I can not help but feel guilty, but the side of Xiaoxi afraid to hold my arm, I can only bite the bullet to go on.
“I’m her boyfriend!” I gave a loud shout of bravado. The people who are looking for fun in the night show also have morality. They can “pick up corpses,” but they don’t touch other people’s prey, especially the rich young people with heads and faces.
Several boys walked away unhappily, and Xiaoxi and I were relieved at the same time. Not surprisingly, Xiaoxi got into my car, and the progress was faster than I expected.
“There are so many of them, aren’t you afraid of them?” On the way home to send Xiaoxi, she suddenly asked.
“Of course I’m afraid.” I know that honesty is essential to gain the other person’s trust, “but I’m more afraid of them hurting you.” “I’m not that weak. Even if you don’t do it, I still have a way to get away,
” Hsiao-hsi said with a stubborn expression as he looked at my rented sports car and turned down the rearview mirror to wipe off the lipstick. When I
first met you, I noticed that you were very smart and capable. I just want you to know that if you ever have trouble holding on, there’s someone to lean on.
No girl can resist a gentle knife. Seeing the corner of her mouth turned up in the rearview mirror, I knew I had done a perfect job tonight.
A misunderstanding, a dream
, I became Xiaoxi’s boyfriend smoothly. Of course, I also made an appropriate “transformation” of myself according to the course content of the PUA class. In the script I wrote, my parents were old money who had already realized wealth and freedom, but I disdained the deception of the market, and went to the university to be a teacher entirely out of hobby, by the way, to release the talent that had nowhere to be placed.
For a woman who is greedy for money, we should buy for her; for a woman who is not short of money, we should give her double tenderness and consideration. These principles are old-fashioned, but they work. Instead of taking Xiaoxi to a high-end restaurant, I cooked for her at home and fed her one mouthful at a time.
Of course, I didn’t forget to show off my financial “strength” at the right time. I bought a few high-imitation luxury car keys and pretended to inadvertently throw them in the drawer of the tea table; Hsiao-hsi frowned at my little house, but I didn’t mind. Instead, while watching a movie with Hsiao-hsi, I fondly recalled the tall Xifu crabapple in the courtyard of our “villa.” “You know, under that tree there are very warm memories of our family. Every spring, when the flowers were blooming, my father often invited his business friends over for tea and chess.” And,
of course, to snub her properly. On the one hand, give her enough space, on the other hand, let her have a sense of crisis that I am not indispensable to her. Every minute she waits for my invitation, her anxiety and desire will be more, and the taste will be more sweet, so that the relationship can be maintained. This is also the experience I learned from the PUA group.
Xiaoxi was pinched by me, even more smoothly than I expected. Within two months, she bought a two-carat diamond ring and offered to marry me.
Are you sure it’s me? Aren’t you afraid of being cheated by me? I took Xiaoxi’s ring, put it on for her, and asked as a gentleman.
Didn’t you say you knew I was smart the first time you saw me? How could I be deceived? Xiaoxi said proudly and innocently that he put his finger through the ring and the diamond was shining.
At that moment, I was carried away by happiness, and everything went in the direction of a happy ending.
It’s just that if we really want to talk about marriage, the problem is far more than I imagined. I didn’t dare to see Xiaoxi’s parents, and I delayed the meeting of the two families. I knew that my fictional persona could easily collapse with the exposure of my family, and that my tricks would be instantly exposed in front of a really rich man like her father. “Do you think our family is not good enough for yours?”
Asked Hsiao-hsi in a rare outburst of anger.
Her reaction drove me to the wall. During that time, Xiaoxi and I had a cold war. In order to coax Xiaoxi to change his mind, I racked my brains. I can’t afford a
luxury house, and there is no shortage of luxury cars for Xiaoxi. On second thought, Xiaoxi has been planning to start his own company, win over celebrities and become MCN. Holding the mentality of being reluctant to give up the child and unable to trap the wolf, I offered to invest in Xiaoxi’s company, which was my reassurance to her.
I quickly sold the house below the market price and gave it to Xiaoxi together with all the savings. At the WeChat, Xiaoxi sent a series of expressions that moved him to cry. I took the opportunity to say that we should get the certificate first and make an appointment to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau the next morning.
The next day, I waited for three hours at the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau, but Xiaoxi never appeared. At that time, I found that I was blacklisted by Xiaoxi.
I rushed to her apartment and found it empty, and her social media accounts were canceled.
Helplessly, I had no choice but to inquire about Xiaoxi’s whereabouts tactfully, but Zhao Zhao’s answer completely froze me.
“She’s just a student. What kind of connection can I have with her?” Look at her with disdain. “Don’t you remember her?”? She worked with me on your class a few years ago. She was there when it happened. 「
I was petrified on the spot. Perhaps it was because there were too many beautiful girls in those days who looked too much like each other, or perhaps thanks to these years of persistent medical beauty, I didn’t recognize Xiaoxi at all. She was one of those “single celebrities” at the beginning. Over the years,
she still relied on the trick of putting together a list. She posted some photos showing off her wealth on the Internet. She became a little Internet celebrity and contacted me. I only agreed to let her come to see it because of my initial affection, but who knew that she hadn’t made any progress at all, and after only one lesson, she was eyeing my client.
“Customer?” With a guilty conscience, I quickly realized that Zhao was not talking about me: “You mean rich second generation who finds fault in class?”
Zhao Zhao smiled and said, “Yes, that’s him.”. Even you, a straight man, can see it. Can people not see it? She knew she was a member of the supercar club, so she forged a fake membership on the Internet and rented a sports car to pretend to meet by chance. As a result, people could see at a glance that her car was an old model from a few years ago, and that people who could get into that club would never drive a car like that.
As if I had been struck by lightning, I was still gossiping. What was even more ridiculous was that she didn’t give up and followed her to the nightclub, pretending to be drunk and insisting on getting into her car. People do not let, there is a passing diaosi actually thought she was bullied, but also played a hero to save the United States. The joke spread in the circle. It’s ridiculous for a person like her to dream of reaching the sky in one step.
Ridiculous? Is it her or me that’s funny? My head buzzed, and it turned out that Xiaoxi had already known all my lies.
Didn’t you say you knew I was smart the first time you saw me? How could I be deceived? What Xiaoxi said on the day of his proposal kept hovering in my ears.
Beautiful girls want to cross the class, there has always been a fast track at all times and in all countries, that is, to meet rich people. Those who have good looks can pass the training class for socialites and design step by step to lock up the young rich second generation; those who have talent and learning can sign up for the business school and rely on high EQ and considerate people to take down the middle-aged rich businessmen who have read all the lead. There are thousands of
such girls, but those who can succeed are all elite. I also dreamed of designing them as bait, but I didn’t think I might pay a price beyond redemption.
I went back to school in a daze, thinking about whether I should call the police to look for Xiaoxi, but first I received a notice from the Academic Affairs Office that someone had reported me for taking private work and suspended me. Originally, Zhaozhao’s high-end etiquette training class touched the interests of many similar training classes. Her behavior of robbing customers in the circle completely angered the other party. Because of the influence of Zhaozhao’s husband, she took the knife to me.
The wall fell and the crowd pushed. I resigned in a fit of pique from a colleague who had been jealous of my private income. Anyway, I had long ignored the teacher’s meager income.
At least I have a career. I planned to make a comeback as a high-end etiquette trainer, but when I went to take care of my home again, I was blocked from the door. According to the photo, her hair was disheveled, her makeup was blurred, and her small Japanese eyelids were swollen like peaches.
I haven’t come after you yet! Tell Xiaoxi everything. Now my husband knows about my past and is divorcing me! If I don’t have anything, you won’t feel better! She growled at me. With a
bang, the door of Zhaozhao’s house closed in front of me. It was tight and cold.
