The Pentium Era - South to North

"Mr. Zhang, this is your room card. Please keep it. You are welcome to have a pleasant stay!"

The receptionist at the Jinling Resort handed the room card to Zhang Chen and told him.

Zhang Chen said thank you!

He turned around and walked towards the elevator. The lady at the front desk stood there, looking at his back, thinking to herself, this guest is really strange. Why did he come without any luggage at all? There were some empty-handed people before. There are many guests, but most of them bring girls here to eat wild food.

Thinking of this, the front desk lady suddenly realized that after opening the room, a woman would probably arrive from behind soon. She curled her lips and snorted from her nostrils, as if she thought others didn't know.

At this time, there were not many guests staying in the hotel, and the front desk lady was also bored. She simply lay on the counter, rested her chin on her arm, and waited to see what kind of woman would come in. If it was Dingdong, she felt that Dingdong should be the one to pay him. This 309 is quite handsome, much like the Hong Kong movie star Ng Zhenyu.

The front desk of the hotel always likes to use room numbers instead of names. She feels that if the girl who comes in looks too different, the 309 will be lost, and if the girl is Dingdong, it will be even less worth it.

But she lay there and watched for a long time, but she didn't see any woman coming in. She didn't know why, but she became happy because of it. She picked up a copy of 309's ID card and read it again and again.

…

Zhang Chen leaned on the bedside and looked at the time. It was already past twelve o'clock in the evening. He wanted to smoke, so he dug into his pockets and then remembered that the cigarette and lighter were still on the bedside table in the Ban Mu Tian Resort Hotel room. .

When he went out, he originally wanted to go to Huijuan's room, but he didn't expect to end up here.

Zhang Chen picked up his mobile phone and pulled out He Hongmei's number. He stared at it for a while. It seemed that because he had just walked to the door of Huijuan's room and touched the doorbell button with his finger but did not press it, it gave him some encouragement. The courage made him feel that he could face He Hongmei, and he finally pressed the dial button.

The phone rang twice and was connected. "Hello", He Hongmei's voice came on the phone. Although they had not spoken for more than a day, Zhang Chen felt that this voice came from the distant past and had not been seen for a long time. .

Zhang Chen calmed down. He originally wanted to ask whether you were in Beijing or Hengdian, but he immediately felt that there was no need to ask. He heard voices on the phone going south to north, as well as Wenwen and Xiaofang's voices.

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "It's so lively. You're still up so late?"

He Hongmei also smiled and said: "No, we just came back from the set, and we still have scenes to shoot in the evening. Now, we are waiting in line, waiting to eat dumplings and wontons."

"Aunt Hongmei, are you dad?" Zhang Xiangbei asked.

He Hongmei nodded, and Zhang Xiangbei snatched the phone away and shouted into the phone: "Dad, Dad, you are already an old landlord."

Zhang Chen was surprised and asked, "Why have I become an old landlord again?"

"Today, the director asked me to play a small landowner who was beaten by his sister." Zhang Xiangbei said.

Zhang Chen understood and laughed: "Hey, the little landowner was beaten by the little martial arts team member. How was your performance?"

"The director said I acted like I was being beaten."

Zhang Chen laughed: "Is that a conditioned reflex?"

"If you don't believe me, ask Aunt Hongmei." Zhang Xiangbei shouted and handed the phone back to He Hongmei. He Hongmei took it and said, yes, Bei Bei did act very similar. He kept calling mom for help, which made Xiaofang and I cry. It hurts to watch from the sidelines.

Zhang Chen laughed and scolded: "He must be acting in his true colors. He is really useless. If you ask him to beat someone, he will not be able to act well. When he is beaten, he will act like a bad actor."

"Go, who do you want him to beat?" He Hongmei cursed.

"I'm going back to Hangzhou tomorrow." Zhang Chen said.

"Okay, since we are in Hengdian anyway, you won't be able to see us when you return to Hangzhou." He Hongmei said.

"Then I'll come to Hengdian too, okay?"

"It's up to you, make your own arrangements."

He Hongmei replied, and the two of them said a few other words. There were so many people around He Hongmei, and it was not very convenient to talk, so they hung up the phone.

Neither of them mentioned that He Hongmei called Zhang Chen last night, but no one answered, and Zhang Chen never called back.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chen let out a long breath. He felt that this phone call had connected everything in the past and life began to become normal again.

…

Zhang Chen returned to Hangzhou.

When Huijuan stood there chopping vegetables, she almost cut her finger. She stood in front of the stove and scooped half a spoonful of oil into the pot with a horse spoon. The oil was already emitting black smoke and she almost lit it. She was stunned. He stood on the ground without putting the ingredients into the pot.

Fatty Fu came over, turned off the fire with a click, and cursed: "What's going on, your soul is lost? Do you still look like you can work?!"

Huijuan stood there with her hands hanging down, silent. Fatty Fu looked at her and saw tears welling up in her eyes.

Fatty Fu sighed and said, "Go to the office and take a rest. We're here today. We can't win."

Huijuan walked towards Fatty Fu's office. She walked to the desk opposite Fatty Fu and sat down, laying her head in her arms.

After a while, Fatty Fu came in, looked at her, put a pack of tissue paper in front of her, and said to her:

"If you want to cry, just cry properly. There is no one now. Even if you cry like a pig, no one will hear you."

Huijuan raised her head, took out three or four tissues, turned around and wiped her tears. It was a little better when she was on Renmin Road in the morning. She returned to Banmutian Resort Hotel in the afternoon. Whenever she thought about Zhang Chen leaving, she felt aggrieved. It came overwhelming.

The tissues in Huijuan's hands were soaked, and she took out three or four more.

"Because of Mr. Zhang?" Fatty Fu asked.

Huijuan made no sound.

"Why are you crying? I have told you before that your matter is not over yet." Fatty Fu said.

"It's not over yet. They all left me and went back to Hangzhou." Huijuan said soothingly.

"So what if you go back to Hangzhou? You will go back in a few days. Your affairs are far from over. I believe Master." Fatty Fu said with a smile.

"Why, Master?" Huijuan was curious, she raised her head and asked Fatty Fu.

"You are not a light-hearted person." Fatty Fu looked at Huijuan and said, "If you don't get what you want, when will you stop?"

Huijuan was stunned.

…

Xiao Sheng came to pick up Zhang Chen at Xiaoshan International Airport in Hangzhou. When they left the airport and drove to the airport expressway, Zhang Chen and Xiao Sheng said:

"At the intersection ahead, go right to Hangjin Qu. Let's go to Hengdian Film and Television City in Dongyang."

Xiao Sheng said yes.

Zhang Chen looked at his watch. It was now 2:40 in the afternoon. It was 156 kilometers from here to Hengdian Film and Television City. It would take about two hours to arrive. Zhang Chen felt anxious at the thought of being with He Hongmei again at night. A little excited again.

Zhang Chen recalled this feeling, which was very similar to the way he had agreed to take over the Qunying Garment Factory in Liu Chengcheng's office before going back to the Ban Mu Tian Life Flagship Store on Yan'an Road to see Xiao Zhao. He was like a criminal. The child who made a mistake went to see his parents.

Zhang Chen couldn't help laughing when he thought of this.

Xiao Sheng turned to look at him and asked: "You are so happy, are you going to Hengdian to meet He Hongmei?"

"Zhang Xiangbei is there." Zhang Chen defended.

When she arrived at the card collection office at the toll station in front, Xiao Shengkai went to the rightmost passage, received the card, and entered the Hangjin-Quzhou Expressway.

After crossing Xinjie and approaching the Xiaoshan exit, Zhang Chen's hand touched the band-aid on his neck. He was startled and said to Xiao Sheng:

"The Xiaoshan exit ahead is a U-turn. We'd better go back to the company first."

Xiao Sheng said yes, not going to Hengdian?

"I forgot about another email. I need to reply today. The information is still in the office." Zhang Chen said seriously.

The car arrived at the Xiaoshan exit, got off the expressway, passed the toll station, immediately turned around, got on the expressway again, and drove towards Hangcheng.

Zhang Chen secretly screamed in his heart, it's so dangerous, how could the band-aid on his neck be taken off if he got to Hengdian? He Hongmei and Wenwen, neither of them knew what it was, so why would he? Cover it with a band-aid.

Zhang Chen returned to his office and rushed into the bathroom immediately. He took off the band-aid on his neck and took a look. The kiss spot was lighter in color than yesterday, but it was still clearly visible.

Zhang Chen tore off a new band-aid, put it on again, pressed it with his hands, and then walked out of the bathroom.

He sat back at his desk, picked up the phone, and dialed a series of numbers. After a while, He Hongmei's voice came on the phone.

Zhang Chen and He Hongmei said: "I'm back in Hangzhou. I'll take care of things in the company first. I'll come to Hengdian the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

He Hongmei said yes.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chen leaned back and leaned on the back of the chair.

The reason why he called He Hongmei and told her that he might go the day after tomorrow was because he was afraid. He Hongmei knew that he had returned to Hangzhou, so she might rush back from Hengdian tomorrow, saying that she might go to Hengdian the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. I'm sure it's because he doesn't know when the marks on his neck will fade away.

So damn tired.

Just such a small thing seemed to put a lot of pressure on him. Zhang Chen felt that with his psychological quality, if he were allowed to be a spy, he would probably die of exhaustion before anyone else could catch him.

Zhang Chen picked up the phone on the table and dialed Xu Qiaoxin. As soon as Xu Qiaoxin heard his voice, she shouted, "You are back, I will come down immediately."

Xu Qiaoxin walked into Zhang Chen's office. Zhang Chen shouted, "Don't move, just stand there."

Xu Qiaoxin stopped and looked at Zhang Chen in confusion.

"First explain, what did you call me on the phone just now?" Zhang Chen asked.

Xu Qiaoxin giggled: "Commissioner, in the movie, Bald Jiang and President Jiang, didn't everyone call him Chairman Jiang? Aren't you the CEO too? Why, you called him wrong again this time?"

"Do you think I'm bald?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Just shave it off." Xu Qiaoxin said.

Zhang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shouted: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, come and sit down, and report on the work during my absence."

"Okay." Xu Qiaoxin came over, sat down, and opened her notebook. It seemed that she was well prepared.

Xu Qiaoxin looked at Zhang Chen and laughed from time to time while reporting on her work. At first she just laughed secretly, but then it became more and more frequent. Zhang Chen was confused by her laughter. Before he asked, Xu Qiaoxin couldn't help it anymore. He turned his head and laughed.

Zhang Chen scolded: "Why are you laughing? Reporting on work, is it so ridiculous?"

Xu Qiaoxin waved her hand: "No, no, Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry."

"It's you here. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw it." She pointed to her neck again and said to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen asked: "What's wrong here? Have you never seen a band-aid?"

Xu Qiaoxin laughed and said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at myself."

"What happened to you before?"

"I used to fall in love in school, but that damn thing always deliberately gave me kiss marks here. He also told me that this was his unique mark, which made me have to wear it the next day. I went to class with a Band-Aid, but my classmates were still surprised and asked me, Xu Qiaoxin, why do you always get hurt in your neck?"

Xu Qiaoxin smiled while talking, Zhang Chen also laughed, Xu Qiaoxin continued:

"That damn thing is very proud. On my birthday, guess what he gave me? Such a big box of band-aids." Xu Qiaoxin said, making a square shape in the air with his finger.

Zhang Chen laughed and asked, "Where is such a romantic ex-boyfriend now?"

"I don't know either." Xu Qiaoxin said, "We talked for more than a semester, and I dumped him. I don't know where he is now. No, Mr. Zhang, you don't have kiss spots here, right?"

Zhang Chen scolded: "Ban, you are so big, do you want me to show you?"

As Zhang Chen spoke, he looked like he was going to rip off the band-aid. Xu Qiaoxin quickly shouted: "Forget it, forget it, stop!"
