Cannon Fodder's Rebirth

The May Day holiday in [-] was really ruined by SARS. The epidemic forced everyone to stay in seclusion cautiously. City B was no longer the bustling scene of a large number of foreign tourists flooding in during the long holiday.

But the only advantage is that there is not much traffic jam on the road.Originally, it took at least five or ten minutes, but now it takes half an hour at most, and there is no need to fight for a parking space.

The place Zhong Yifan took Jiang Xi to was a fishing resort in the suburbs. Compared with the raging SARS in the city, the suburbs were sparsely populated and the air was fresh, making people feel safer.

After renting the fishing tackle, the two of them sat down by the fish pond and began to imitate the appearance of an old man in the distance, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

It was only the two of them and the old man who were fishing, and the environment was quiet. The waiter at the villa brought tea and disposable sterilized towels and put them on the small table next to them, and never came to bother them again. It was a rare tranquility under the tense atmosphere of SARS. Cozy pastoral life.

"My fish is floating!" whispered to Jiangxi, Zhong Yifan was excited to lift the rod.

As a result, Jiangxi's cell phone sang untimely, causing Zhong Yifan to startle and startle the fish away.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Seeing Zhong Yifan glaring at him pretending to be ferocious, Jiang Xi smiled and apologized without sincerity, while walking a little further away to answer the phone.

It took a long time to talk on the phone, and when he came back, there was already a catfish weighing about two catties in the small bucket next to Zhong Yifan, and he was about to show it off to him!

"Today's catfish roasted eggplant is available!" Eating the fish you caught must have a sense of accomplishment.

"Can this go online?" Jiang Xi didn't care about the catfish burning eggplant, and asked about other things first.

"The whole resort is covered by WLAN, so you can get online, but what kind of network do you use for fishing?"

"I'll tell you later, your notebook is in the car, let me use it." Jiang Xi couldn't carry a burden when he climbed over the wall, Zhong Yifan always carried his notebook with him, and usually put it in the car.

The notebook was quickly brought over, Jiangxi turned on the phone to find out what had been uploaded to his mailbox in advance, clicked send, and the other party replied to his email soon after saying that he had received it.After finishing it, he turned off the phone, and Zhong Yifan was looking at him with "quickly confess".

Putting the notebook on the small table next to him, Jiang Xi brought a cup of Gaiwan tea to Zhong Yifan's hands, with the intention of pouring the tea to apologize, who made him scare away the fish just now?

"So you want to get away with it?" Zhong Yifan swiped the floating leaf with the lid of the cup like a show, and Zhong Yifan took a sip, expressing that this was not enough.

Jiang Xi actually didn't do anything bad.

In my previous life, I started working part-time after graduating from a technical secondary school in my teens until I died at the age of 27. During this time, I had too many and complicated jobs.Before he went to work at Unbounded Media, the longest job he had was doing home design for a home improvement company, and now he has taken a course in environmental design, making pictures for fun, and hanging out on a forum with friends when he has nothing to do.At first, the forum was purely for public welfare. If some members wanted to submit homework and asked for a design drawing, everyone would help out as if they were playing.How can Jiang Xi say that he was considered a professional in the past, and he is also an "experienced person". The design concept must be more in line with the future popular development trend. Since his pictures have the highest probability of being adopted, he was forced into the management team and became a forum manager. member.After going back and forth to the forum, someone proposed that the home really needs to be renovated, and sent over detailed floor plans and real-life photos, saying that they could ask for a design drawing for a fee.Some senior members of the management team were moved by this, and said that it would be better for everyone to register and set up a design studio.Jiang Xi's abilities are fine, but he doesn't have any qualifications now. He is only a freshman, so he said that he will not participate.However, members of the same management team are still very optimistic about him. Since the establishment of the studio for several months, they have not stopped asking him for help.Jiang Xi didn't know who would hand over the drawing to the client in the name of a qualified member after the drawing was designed. Since each time a drawing might have to stay up for several nights, he would definitely not let him do it for nothing. That being said, they are still a reasonable group of friends.Some clients have higher requirements. Like the client just now, he needs to see the decoration effect more intuitively. In addition to the design drawings, Jiangxi sent him 3D panoramic renderings made with [-]dsmax and lightscape.

"Amazing!" Even though Jiang Xi said it lightly, Zhong Yifan still listened with approval.But a lover who is too capable can easily make him feel insecure. It seems that he must have a sense of crisis: "In the future, I really have to watch you closely, you are almost so good that I don't feel at ease."

"Stop joking." Not used to being praised by Zhong Yifan, Jiang Xi felt embarrassed.

He feels that the ability to earn some pocket money for himself now is all due to the blessing of living once in his previous life, such as 3DSMAX and Vray, which he has been familiar with in his previous life, so it seems that he may be better than his classmates.However, using the accumulated knowledge of two lifetimes to defeat others who have lived for a lifetime is really nothing to be proud of.This is really incomparable to Zhong Yifan, he is born with business acumen, and he is just using the inheritance from his previous life to earn some hard-earned money. For example, when his roommate is playing chess with Zhou Gong, he is alone in front of the computer and yawns. overnight.

"I'm not kidding, I'm telling the truth!" Zhong Yifan became serious: "Have you thought about what to do after graduation?"

"I haven't finished my freshman year yet, so it's too early to think about graduation?" Jiang Xi felt that Zuo was just looking for a company to work and eat.Anyway, he is not going to get married in this life, so he doesn't need to think about making a lot of money and making a fortune in preparation for marrying a wife and having children.

"Since you like interior design, why don't you consider opening your own home improvement design company in the future? It's better to be your own boss than to work for someone else?"

"Start your own company?" This Jiang Xi has really thought about it.

"Well! At that time, you can ask your godfather to come and help you."

"My dad? He can't even turn on the computer. What can he do?" The only time Dad Jiang used the computer was when his hand was injured and there was nothing to do at home. Jiang Xi taught him how to play chess with the computer to relieve boredom.

"After the company starts, it's best to pull up two teams. You recruit people to be responsible for the interior design part. The godfather is an old carpenter who has worked for so many years. You can organize another decoration team to be responsible for the construction according to your drawings and to be responsible for the interior design. The decoration part." Fighting brothers, father and son in battle, the father and son are united, they all speak based on their strength, and they don't worry about not having a future for development.

After being taken aback for a while, Jiang Xi suddenly had the feeling of Zhong Maosai's enlightenment.

I learned this major originally, and it is indeed a good choice to get an interior designer qualification certificate after graduation and work with my father.Although everything is difficult at the beginning, you can't expect to reach a certain level of performance as soon as you come up, but in the long run, my father is already in his 40s. Is it really necessary to work for others for the rest of his life?If it can be like what Zhong Yifan said, then it will be enough to take care of the construction process, instead of having to do it yourself.

Jiang Xi felt that Zhong Yifan's proposal really deserved careful consideration.

For Zhong Yifan, even if Jiang Xi does nothing in the future, including godfather and godmother, he believes that he is capable of supporting their family.But Jiang Xi is a boy after all, from the perspective of respect, he can't say something like letting the other party stay at home and become a "full-time wife".Therefore, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Since Jiang Xi has this ability, he certainly hopes that the other party can have a career of his own and develop better.

The two of them were concentrating on planning for the future, but they didn't notice that the fish had already unhooked after eating the bait!In the end, after working for a long time, the only result was Zhong Yifan's two-jin catfish, and Jiang Xi directly handed in the blank paper in an ugly manner.

The old man on the opposite side got a lot of rewards and asked the waiter to help him carry half a bucket of fish to pass by. He casually glanced at the empty bucket they saw at the bottom, and his face was full of pride.

"Congratulations on successfully entertaining the old man just now. Did you see the expression on your face when the old man passed by? What a sense of accomplishment." Zhong Yifan teased Jiang Xi while putting away his pole.

"That's not bad, I'm helping others, and today's trip is not in vain." Jiang Xi's personality is getting more and more cheerful now, and he is quite entertaining.

"I really think about it. At that time, the catfish grilled eggplant was prepared in the store, and you only eat eggplant!"

"Do you really have the heart?" Jiang Xi blinked his eyes in a cute and pitiful manner: "I'll sue my mother, you bullied me."

"Oh yes! Godmother asked you to call me brother, why can't I hear you?"

After the pole was put away, Jiang Xi picked up his notebook, and when he heard him ask this question, he raised his head and smiled mysteriously.

"I will call you when you are 30 years old." When Zhong Yifan was 30 years old, he was 27 years old.

"Why? I'm not qualified to be your brother until you're [-] years old?"

Raising his eyebrows, Jiang Xi was noncommittal and acted inscrutable.

Suddenly he pulled him into his arms, and while there was no one around, Zhong Yifan gave him a "chirp" kiss on the cheek.

"Call out and listen, or I'll kiss you here!"

In the face of naked threats, Comrade Jiang Xi carried forward the spirit of revolutionary martyrs without fear.Not only was he not afraid, he also took the initiative to launch an offensive based on the principle that the best defense is an offense.With the notebook in his arms, he raised his head and pressed a kiss on Zhong Yifan's lips.

A waiter in the distance brought guests over again, Jiang Xi licked his lower lip provocatively: "Are you still coming?"

"Fuck you!" Zhong Yifan threatened softly, "I won't let you go back to school tonight, believe it or not?"

Before Jiang Xi could express his opinion, one of the four or five people who came from a distance first let out a "huh".

"So coincidental?"

It was a coincidence that Jiang Xi turned his head.

The few people who also came to fish had basically seen each other at the party they met at Zhong Yifan's place for the first time, but they didn't remember their names. It was Tong Huan who was talking just now, and Tong Le who was probably also from "Prison Break" was standing next to him.

Tong Huan's hostility towards him has always been deep, and it has been a long time since the National Day Song Contest, but Jiang Xi doesn't think that he always likes to look at him with that condescending gaze now, or it's just because of the competition that year.

Everyone's understanding of feelings is different, and everyone's code of conduct is also different. Jiang Xi has never been interested in exploring other people's ways of doing things, but he just finds Tong Huan's character a little puzzling.To paraphrase a line from Karen Mok's "Cloudy Sky", "To put it bluntly, feelings, if one breaks free, one picks it up".But the relationship between Tong Huan and Zhong Yifan was clearly what he didn't want, but in the end he didn't allow others to pick it up.

They were all acquaintances, they greeted each other in a flurry of tongues, and then someone accused Zhong Yifan of disappearing in the past half a year, and no one could be found.

"I'm old, I can't play anymore, I want to cultivate myself." Zhong Yifan naturally put his arms around Jiang Xi's shoulders, presenting the unique intimacy between the two before everyone's eyes, like a silent announcement.

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of boos, Jiang Xi was stared at by everyone as if he was standing under a flashing light, but except for Tong Huan's face changing, everyone else was quite friendly, including Tong Le.

At this time, someone "asked" Jiangxi if it was okay to have a meal with their sweet and loving couple, and it was naturally inconvenient for Jiangxi to refuse.In the end, they stopped fishing, and a group of seven or eight people ate together at the villa.

Tong Huan and the others were not keen on fishing at first, but there was no place to go in SARS, they thought the same as Zhong Yifan and the others, they came here for the sake of the suburban area with sparsely populated areas, good air and safety.

After ordering and asking the kitchen to stew the catfish, Zhong Yifan and Jiang Xi went to wash their hands together.

"I didn't affect your normal interpersonal communication, did I?" Jiang Xi asked the person in the mirror after drying his hands.He only wanted to help Zhong Yifan regain his trust in feelings, but he didn't intend to destroy his normal interpersonal relationship.

"Not all friends are good friends, do you want me to be crazy with them like in the past?" Zhong Yifan raised his head in the mirror and met Jiang Xi's gaze: "Do you understand what I mean?"

Feeling warm in his heart, Jiang Xi bent his eyes and smiled, and nodded.Those words of self-cultivation and self-cultivation should be said by Zhong Yifan to Tong Le on purpose. Although Tong Le hasn't heard anything since the phone call on New Year's Eve, Jiang Xi knows that Zhong Yifan is trying his best to prevent any people who may destroy their relationship from appearing around him. .

"But there is a meaning you must not understand!"

Without blowing his hands, Zhong Yifan turned around, put his hands on Jiangxi's shoulders, leaned over his shoulders to let the water droplets fall freely, and only pressed his forehead against Jiangxi's.

"My greatest wish is to let everyone in the circle know that we are together, so that no one will rob you of me."

"..." Wei Wei was moved, and the temperature of Jiang Xi's cheeks began to rise: "Who would come to rob me, if they want to rob, they will also rob you."

"It's because they don't understand you yet. Once they understand, falling in love with you is actually very easy." Tightening his arms, Zhong Yifan embraced the person in his arms, and whispered in the person's ear as if sighing. Whispering: "You don't know how grateful I am to God for letting you fall in love with me..."

The unscrupulous hug of the two people in front of the washstand was seen by Tong Huanquan who pushed the door in and snorted softly. Tong Huan turned a blind eye to the urinal and opened the zipper for convenience.
