It was already eleven o'clock when we left Jiangye Hall.
Lu Yuan pretended not to hear Shen Mulin calling him, and set off first, heading towards the city center.
Halfway through the drive, the Maybach behind caught up.
The speed of the two cars slowed down at the same time, and the windows were rolled down on the empty street. Lu Yuan leaned on the steering wheel and glanced at Shen Mulin who was sitting behind, "What a coincidence!"
Shen Mulin would not be drunk on such an occasion, he looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Why don't you go together."
"I'm hungry."
Shen Mulin stopped talking and just told him to concentrate on driving.
After a while, the two cars stopped at the entrance of the KFC store. Although it was late at night, there were still many young couples in the KFC store who came to eat after watching the movie, and it was quite lively.
"What do you guys eat, I'll order~"
Shen Mulin wanted to get up and go with him, but was held down by Lu Yuan, "Stop, stop, it's already very strange for you two to eat KFC dressed like this."
Zhou Xihe looked down at his evening dress, then at Shen Mulin's suit, and laughed, "It seems so."
Lu Yuan went to order. He wanted to give these two people more time to be alone, so he struggled for a long time, ordering chicken wings for a while, and a hamburger for a while, but he didn't finish talking in one breath.
Fortunately, the bar counter who took his order was a young girl, she was not angry, and chatted with him with a smile.
The girl spoke Northeastern dialect with a sense of humor. Lu Yuan chatted enthusiastically with her, "Then you must be working the night shift very hard."
"It's not so bad. When I woke up in the morning and looked in the mirror, my eyes were blue! It's like a giant panda."
"But it's not busy at night, I don't think there are many people."
"Why are you not busy? There are a lot of people coming to have breakfast at six or seven o'clock. I was so sleepy at that time that I raised my head!"
When Lu Yuan was asking her what she meant by Yang Erzheng, he put a hand on his shoulder, "Aren't you hungry?"
Lu Yuan turned his head and smiled at Shen Mulin, "It's coming soon, wait a little longer, go back and sit down."
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Tsk, this man.
Watching Shen Mulin walking towards the bathroom, Lu Yuan asked the girl again, "So what does it mean to be upright?"
The girl smiled, revealing a row of white teeth, "Just like you."
When Shen Mulin came out of the bathroom, Lu Yuan's order was ready, there were two big trays.
Shen Mulin picked up one and frowned, "Why did you order so many?"
"I haven't eaten for a long time, I'm hungry for everything." Lu Yuan said, took a sip of iced Coke with a straw in his mouth.
Cool.
I have to say that compared to the alienation plan, the matchmaking plan made Lu Yuan happier.
Being estranged from Shen Mulin and Zhou Xihe is like betraying their friendship. Every time he has contact with these two people, he feels very guilty and uneasy at the same time. Now he feels much more comfortable.
Lu Yuan intentionally sat on the chair opposite the two of them on the outer side, pushed Shen Mulin to Zhou Xihe's side, and then pretended to casually mention while eating, "Sister Zhou's birthday is NO.17, right? What's the plan? "
Zhou Xihe glanced at Shen Mulin, seeing that he was unmoved, and a little disappointed, "What arrangements can I make, just like before, just let's have a meal together."
"How can this be possible? The birthday is only once a year, and it is impossible to have a meal someday, so how about it..." Lu Yuan stuffed a piece of chicken popcorn into his mouth and mumbled, "When NO.17 was hot, I really I don’t want to stay at home anymore, let’s spare two days, how about going to the beach for vacation? It must be very comfortable to play in the sea in this weather.”
Zhou Xihe was obviously tempted.
She looked at Shen Mulin again, and asked, "Do you have time?"
Seeing Shen Mulin hesitate, Lu Yuan hurriedly pushed him.
To say it was teasing, rather than being coquettish, he tugged at Shen Mulin's sleeve and dangled it twice, begging him in a childish voice, "Brother Lin~ let's go~ I really want to go to the beach~"
Shen Mulin smiled helplessly, nodded, "Okay."
Lu Yuan winked at Zhou Xihe.
He just said, to deal with a sullen man like Shen Mulin, it's impossible for you to wait for him to take the initiative, you have to bend down, put the steps neatly under his feet, and let him walk down freely.
Lu Yuan has been here most of the time since he was a child, and he understands it very well.
……
In a blink of an eye, on Monday, Lu Yuan drove to work early. He got up early today and arrived at the company 10 minutes early. He happened to meet Bian Hangshuo. Anyway, he was still late, so Lu Yuan chatted with him and got A startling news came.
"What did you say? Uncle Bian..."
"Well, he passed away at twelve o'clock last night."
Lu Yuan looked at him in shock, "Then you are still working here?"
Bian Hangshuo smiled, "I'm here to ask for leave, and I'm going back by plane at twelve noon."
"Then, then..." Lu Yuan wanted to say, then you are too calm, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words again, "Then my condolences."
"Okay, you go up quickly."
Lu Yuan walked into the company with an inexplicable expression on his face, and stopped before reaching the elevator. He took out his mobile phone and called Lu Sheng, asking about Bian Hangshuo, and the answer he got made his jaw drop.
It turned out that after Bian's family was exiled to the south, Bian Hangshuo's father always wanted to be transferred back to City A. He had worked diligently in his position for most of his life, but was excluded as a dissident because of factionalism for 20 years. In the time, he has never been promoted, and the enthusiasm and bright future he had when he was young has turned into full of grief and indignation under the scrutiny of time, and in the end his heart is as stagnant as water.
Or misfortunes never come singly, Bian Hangshuo, who was originally regarded as the hope of the Bian family, made a mistake when he was on a mission, and was sent down to be a patrolman. Bian's father got seriously ill in a fit of rage, and his health deteriorated day by day. Being reprimanded by leaders who were much younger than him was a severe blow to him. In the end, Father Bian used his own life to disintegrate the political gang that had oppressed him for half his life.
Lu Yuan stood there blankly with his cell phone in his hand, sobbing in his heart.
He remembered that when he was a child, he often liked to run behind his elder brother all over the courtyard. At that time, all the children were like a family, and he liked to visit from house to house during New Years and holidays. He went directly to the kitchen and ate whatever he wanted. What he brings, he goes to Bian's most often, because Bian's mother can steam pastries in the shape of bunnies and deep-fried shrimp crackers.
When their family left City A, Lu Yuan followed Lu Xingjun to see him off. He couldn't remember the scene at that time, but he couldn't forget Father Bian's high spirited spirit of being able to make a difference in the vast world.
"...How about Bian Hangshuo?"
"He, I think he seems quite calm."
Lu Yuan sighed over there, "Every family has scriptures that are hard to recite. After Aunt Bian passed away, he hasn't been home much. I guess it may be because of some grievances with his father, but no matter what, Now that something like this has happened, he must feel bad."
"Then what should we do?"
"He said he was on the plane at twelve o'clock at noon?"
"Ah."
"Funerals also need manpower. He definitely can't handle it by himself. I'll go back with him. You don't have to worry about it, just go to work."
"Oh……"
A phone call changed Lu Yuan's mood a lot.
He thought his life was miserable, he thought he had gone through great storms, but compared with Bian Hangshuo, he was nothing, not worth mentioning.
Even if he dies at the age of 30, so what, he has lived so well for so long, even if he dies, his home is still there, and there are still people who will think about him and miss him.
But Bian Hangshuo is the only one left.
Lu Yuan, who arrived at the company early, was 5 minutes late.
After he punched his card, he returned to his work station. Jiang Ning, who was next to him, slid up to him again, and whispered in his ear, "Someone saw you driving a Land Rover to work."
Lu Yuan looked up and saw many people staring at him.
"So what."
"What, the rich second generation has been exposed."
Lu Yuan looked at her and smiled, "Who told you that I'm a rich second generation?"
Jiang Ning looked suspicious, "You can't really be like what they said—"
"What did they say? That I was adopted by someone?"
"Ok!"
Lu Yuan shook his head, and told her solemnly, "Actually, I won the lottery, [-] million."
It's strange that Jiang Ning would believe it. She prefers that Lu Yuan is a rich second generation who has experienced life, "Then you treat dinner."
"I'm used to your stink, I work for you and treat you to dinner."
Jiang Ning grinned, "Ah, I'm a bit shameless, then I invite you."
She returned to her work station and threw over a box of chocolates, "My husband said, thank you for taking care of me."
Lu Yuan accepted her daily feeding with peace of mind.
During the lunch break, Li Xue came to ask the two of them to go out for dinner together, "The weather is so hot, let's eat Liangpi~"
The kind of Liangpi Li Xue mentioned is a very small shop, not to mention far away from the company. There are only a row of small chairs in the store, which is stuffy and dirty. Lu Yuan didn’t want to go even if he killed him. He shook his head decisively, "I I want sushi."
"What kind of sushi are you eating? It's so expensive. If you think it's far away, I'll go and buy it. We'll eat it in the cafeteria."
Lu Yuan thought it was feasible, and just as he was about to nod, Jiang Ning pushed and shoved him, "Let's go together, Lu Yuan, you will be there in three to five minutes by car."
Lu Yuan lay on the table and did not move. Li Xue said that he wanted to be friends with him, but he felt that he was a bit courteous. Since he was young, he had many friends like Li Xue. Since someone is willing to run errands, why would he let himself Hard work, "No."
Jiang Ning glared at him, smiled and said to Li Xue, "Then let's go and leave him alone."
"Farewell, you don't have much appetite after pregnancy, I'll go buy it, your portion is more spicy, Lu Yuan is adding more sesame sauce, right?"
Lu Yuan agreed with a roar, and Li Xue went downstairs smiling, looking in a good mood.
As soon as she left, Lu Yuan was slapped hard by Jiang Ning.
It really hurt, Lu Yuan sat up suddenly, "What are you doing!"
"What kind of attitude do you have? Driving a car will exhaust you to death!"
"Didn't she say she was going to buy it!"
"You—" Jiang Ning suddenly lowered his voice, "I know what you're thinking, but Li Xue isn't as wicked as you."
Lu Yuan wanted to say that her mind is not bad, she is more than capable of calculating people.
But Jiang Ning held his belly, so he didn't dare to refute.
Fortunately, there was no rebuttal.
"Li Xue's monthly salary is higher than that of the people in our office. The reason why she is so frugal is to save some money to send back to her parents in her hometown. Her parents are not in good health. She was going to go to college doing manual work, and her eyes were going to be blinded, so she worked so hard."
"Do you think that everyone is like you, going to university at home, going to work at home, going home and crying when something happens, eating and drinking a lot and stealing some money from parents, she A person has been wandering outside at a young age and has been bullied a lot. You helped her get ahead in the bathroom that day. They really appreciated you and wanted to repay you. Don't always look like you have eyes above the top. Sooner or later you will hurt broke people's hearts."
Lu Yuan stopped talking.
He suddenly felt that the world in his eyes was like reading a novel, what the author wrote, what he could see.
And the life stories of those passers-by who have been taken away by a stroke like him are equally magnificent, wonderful and not ordinary.
Lu Yuan pretended not to hear Shen Mulin calling him, and set off first, heading towards the city center.
Halfway through the drive, the Maybach behind caught up.
The speed of the two cars slowed down at the same time, and the windows were rolled down on the empty street. Lu Yuan leaned on the steering wheel and glanced at Shen Mulin who was sitting behind, "What a coincidence!"
