Chapter 21 Class Reunion
When I arrived in a hurry, most of the classmates who were still in Linhai had already arrived, and two classmates who had gone to nearby cities also rushed over.
I glanced over and saw that Jiang Yan hadn't come yet.
I breathed a sigh of relief and said hello to everyone freely.
Liao Yiyang, who looked like a dog with gold-rimmed glasses, put down the beer glass in his hand and walked over: "Hey, look, our classmate is here!"
I laughed and scolded: "Liao Xiucai, you're pretty good. Who doesn't know that the thing you're most jealous of in your life is that I'm handsomer than you."
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became familiar.
Kong Da came up and gave me a hug: "We haven't seen each other for two years, come and give me a hug. I miss the days when we played football together so much."
"Yes, I really want to go back and play a game." I also hugged Kong Datou heavily, took out the cigarette from the car and gave it to him, and said in a louder voice on purpose: "It's just a small thing, it's just a thought between classmates, but
It’s definitely not bribing state officials!”
That's how I am. I definitely do things in a high-profile manner and behave in a low-key manner. Things should be kept in the light, which has many benefits.
For example, now, when I come up, I give Kong Datou two good cigarettes. Firstly, the distance between the two of them is immediately shortened. Secondly, in front of so many classmates, Kong Datou also has a lot of face.
Everyone has only been in society for a few years, and being able to accept gifts shows that they are more capable than others.
Kong Datou pushed twice and accepted it sheepishly. As expected, everyone looked at him differently. Several other male classmates immediately became enthusiastic with Kong Datou.
Those who stayed in Linhai, Liao Yiyang and I passed the exams and entered a law firm, Kong Datou passed the prison system and entered the national civil service, and several others either changed careers or joined companies as legal counsel.
We can be considered companions, but after all, we have many friends and many paths.
I believe that after several years of social ravages, everyone has realized that compared to the big dye vat-like interpersonal relationships in society, the relatively simple friendships in school are better.
Everyone started chatting, and I was much more low-key now. I ate melon seeds and drank wine and didn't take the initiative to talk. I always thought that the class reunion was just a show-off party, and I didn't come if I could. But someone took the initiative to ask me how my work was. I heard that I have been doing it recently.
After receiving an agency fee of 100,000 yuan, those legal students also looked enviously.
Most of the company's legal staff are paid dead wages. They are not as hardworking as lawyers, but their income is not too high. Unless it is a very busy group company, it is not uncommon for legal staff to earn hundreds of thousands per year, but those are top-notch employees.
The salary can only be paid by the company.
"Where's the protagonist? He hasn't come yet?" Kong Datou was even more anxious than me and smiled evilly at me: "You have been in contact with Jiang Yan a lot, right?"
I smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I really don't have much contact."
Kong Datou grinned with an expression of disbelief: "You and Jiang Yan were so close at that time, I thought you would definitely get married after graduation..."
Sure enough, as soon as they heard Kong Datou say this, everyone's eyes drifted towards me.
Liao Yiyang slapped Kong Datou on the back of the head: "Which pot should I not open? You can't stop your mouth if you drink, right?"
Kong Datou picked up the wine glass angrily and said hurriedly, "I won't say it anymore. It's not enough if I don't say it anymore."
There is a girl who knows about my relationship with Jiang Yan, her name is Zhao Xiaole. When I was in college, I felt like an ugly duckling. She was not good at talking. She would always stand in the corner during any activities in the class, but she and Jiang Yan were close friends.
friend.
Now that I have come to Chuluo, Bai Baijingjing is very generous, but the more people like this, the more sensitive they are. Zhao Xiaole smiled and said: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, how about one? Long live our youth!"
"Long live youth!" Everyone clinked their beers together, causing countless froths to stir up. Zhao Xiaole talked about work with a grimace, saying that she now works in a state-owned laboratory, not to mention the low salary, and she looks at the director's face every day.
As soon as everyone talked about work, they started chatting, pouring out their grievances and scolding the capitalist class for being unscrupulous, which diverted my business away.
I gave Zhao Xiaole a look of thanks, and Zhao Xiaole responded and winked at me.
I was still a little nervous, so I dragged Liao Yiyang to the toilet. I opened the zipper and said, "Is your grandson reliable? Will Jiang Yan come?"
Liao Yiyang chuckled: "I called before and said it was a little late. Oh, this suit of yours is okay. I haven't seen it before. Is it borrowed and you have to return it later..."
I said, "Fuck you, uncle, believe it or not, I will fuck you all over."
While the two of us were teasing, Liao Yiyang's phone rang. The sound on the phone in the bathroom was very hollow, and I heard the dreamy voice there countless times.
Jiang Yan asked: "Where are you? There is a traffic jam on the road and you are late. Should you go directly to the second floor?"
"Don't worry, we are just basking in the sun in the yard downstairs, just in time to welcome you." Liao Yiyang hung up the phone with a smile, and walked out of the toilet. Seeing that no one was around, he patted me on the shoulder and comforted me: "Lu
Yao, after so many years, let it go when it’s time to let it go..."
I interrupted him with a chuckle: "Are you wiping your hands on my new clothes?"
Liao Yiyang laughed, maybe seeing that I was really relaxed, he didn't try to comfort me any more.
Not long after we came out, we saw a white car parked slowly in the courtyard of Hai Dao Lang. Jiang Yan got out of the car and greeted us, saying she was sorry for being late.
She wore an off-white windbreaker and her hair was chestnut wavy. She squinted her eyes slightly and smiled, revealing two beautiful dimples. The light of noon seemed to be focused on her at this moment. I
It was as if there was no one else in his sight, only her.
Memories flooded into my brain instantly.
At this moment, my eyes felt a little blurry.
Zhao Xiaole ran over and held hands with Jiang Yan. The two of them jumped up and down happily: "Oh, I haven't seen you for several years, Jiang Yan, you have become more beautiful again! You are very elegant. The soil and water in foreign countries are different!"
"No way." Jiang Yan was also very happy and excited: "On your side, your skin has become so good. What kind of cosmetics do you use to share with me?"
Everyone went over to greet Jiang Yan one by one.
I deliberately walked at the end. I felt that it was over, but it was not. I needed to calm down.
When I waited, I thought Jiang Yan would give me a hug, or at least a warm handshake.
But none.
Jiang Yan put her hands in her pockets, lifted the stones at her feet, tilted her head and looked up at me in the sunshine: "How have you been these past few years?"
"It's... pretty good."
I nodded, not knowing what to say, so Jiang Yan took Zhao Xiaole's hand and went to reminisce with a few girls.
Liao Yiyang saw me standing there awkwardly, and shouted: "The real owner is here, let's go, brothers, the private room on the second floor is reserved for me today!"
Work has not improved yet, life is in trouble, and I cannot see the future clearly, nor can I go back to the past.
