Jiang Ce and Liu Dan looked at Du Zhihai, who was throwing his bag aside and frantically filling the five-yuan bowl of rice noodles opposite him, and suddenly felt less hungry.
When he had eaten more than half of his meal, he had time to say a few words.
"Hey, why don't you eat? Aren't you hungry? I've been busy from twelve o'clock until now, and I haven't eaten anything, but I'm starving."
"Oh, we're not too hungry. It's okay. You eat slowly and then talk after you finish." Jiang Ce looked at his classmate and roommate with a smile.
In the past, in school, our relationship was second only to being a good friend with Liu Dan.
Finally, I waited until Haizi finished eating.
"I'm sorry, I've been busy with a big project recently. When I finish this project, I'll treat you to a chicken pot!"
Haizi wiped his greasy mouth.
When Liu Dan heard about the big project, he immediately got excited.
“How big of a project?”
"Speaking of this project, I'll scare you by saying it." Du Zhihai suddenly became energetic.
"I'm telling you..."
Suddenly Haizi seemed to remember something and looked at Jiang Ce carefully.
"Hey, Lao Jiang, I used to ask you two to come out right after graduation. If you insist on following Teacher Dong to a small place in the countryside, how much work can I do for you?"
Jiang Ce and Liu Dan looked at each other, why didn't this happen before it was mentioned to them again?
Did you even despise the teacher?
Jiang Ce blinked: "Isn't that right? Tell me, tell me how big your project is?"
Haizi turned around and looked around the small food stall. They were all full of people. At this point, the diners could no longer distinguish between dinner and midnight snacks.
He came closer and lowered his voice: "Well, you know that next year is the Olympic year, right?"
…
Is this information known to everyone around the world?
The two nodded in unison, and Liu Dan's eyes widened: "What's wrong? Is the big project you mentioned related to this?"
"No, otherwise, how could I be so busy? I don't even have time to pick you up! I don't even have time to eat! I'm all rushing to make progress!"
Jiang Ce and Liu Dan exclaimed, with expressions of sudden realization.
"Hey, let me tell you, why did you suddenly come here thinking about it?" Haizi did not go into details about the project.
"Ahem, isn't the small project over there completed? We have no work to do later. Your brother is here again, so we came here to see if there is a bowl of rice here!"
Liu Dan suddenly put away his usual exaggeration and spoke seriously.
This made Jiang Ce a little uncomfortable, even though he knew what he was thinking.
This time, it was Haizi's turn to suddenly realize.
So that’s it. Looking at the tired and frustrated looks on their faces, it’s almost likely that they can’t survive with the teacher, right?
Hehe, why do you think you are the first in your class in majors and talents...that's all. Once you enter society, won't your true colors be revealed?
Haizi relaxed, leaned back on the chair, and distanced himself a bit.
"After graduating last year, it was great that you came out with me and still had time and opportunity to get exposed to the CUHK projects. Now that I have just come here, it will take at least half a year to adapt, including job hunting and internships, not counting the tens of thousands of you.
If you don't adapt to the situation of changing jobs, hey, it's really a little late."
What is the reason for Haizi's emotion?
This time it was Liu Dan's turn to take the initiative to approach him.
"Then, Haizi, what advice do you have for us two new classmates?"
"Well, let's look for a job first. The kind of work you do in your hometown doesn't count as work experience here. Anyway, how to put it, first reset your mentality to zero, and treat yourself as if you have been unemployed for a year after graduation.
The mentality of the situation after a year!”
After Haizi said this, the corners of his mouth raised and he kept looking at Jiang Ce.
I feel so comfortable. In college, he was always suppressed in every aspect. Haizi was so strong that he could hardly breathe.
Now seeing the silent Jiang Ce, he quarreled a few words and finally let out a sigh of relief.
Jiang Ce nodded slightly: "Haizi, I think you are right. We will adjust our mentality."
Liu Dan was not happy. Why was he preaching? Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Ce stopped him with his eyes.
Haizi felt completely comfortable for a few seconds, and then asked: "Have you found a place to live?"
Liu Dan and Jiang Ce raised their heads at the same time. What does this mean?
"It's been a long time since you arrived, haven't you found a place to stay?" Haizi was in disbelief again.
This time, Liu Dan could no longer hold back.
"I'm just waiting for you to get off work and want to hang out with you for a while!"
Haizi's attitude made Liu Dan quite uncomfortable.
Haizi smiled and said: "Follow me for a while? Didn't you see that I have been busy all day and night working on the project, for fear of delaying the progress.
If you had arrived before or after my project, I would have taken time to accompany you. But now, I really don’t have time. Did you see that I have to take the work computer assigned to me by the company with me?
I’m going back to work on the design draft later, and I have to hand it in early tomorrow morning. Hey, I’ll probably have to stay up late tonight!”
Jiang Ce and Liu Dan looked at each other again. Hey, it seemed that their plan to stay at his place for a few days was going to go to waste.
"Well, that's it. There are a lot of rental ads on any street here. If you like them, just pay the deposit and move in. It's very simple. I'll treat you to this meal!"
Jiang Ce and Liu Dan watched him come back after paying the bill. Jiang Ce smiled and said, "Haizi, I owe you a meal today. Come back, and when we have settled in, we will treat you back!"
"Hey, we are all classmates, why are you so polite? Then, that's it? I'm really in a hurry to make pictures. I'll contact you later."
When he turned around and walked out less than five meters, Liu Dan was so angry that he slapped the folding chair, almost breaking the legs of the table.
When Haizi heard this, he felt happy, pretended not to hear, and left without looking back.
"What the hell? In school, this bastard has the most meal cards among us, and we haven't even asked him for anything. Is this a sign of morality? Damn it!"
Full of enthusiasm, he came to seek refuge with his classmates, hoping to find a temporary place to stay. Who would have thought that this so-called classmate would have such an attitude?
When I was in school, my brother was older than my brother.
Seeing as they have no job and no place to live, that’s all they have is face?
Jiang Ce said slowly: "You can't say that. After all, we were treated to a meal of rice noodles."
Liu Dan was stunned for a moment, then turned around: "Lao Jiang, don't pretend to be serious here, I don't know you yet? Even if you have anger in your heart, you won't let it out immediately. What are you thinking about?"
Jiang Ce stood up and started packing his luggage: "What else can you think about? Let's go to the place where Uncle Zhao told us to find a place to live. Let's settle down first. When we settle down, we will take our time. The days are long!"
The two of them only took three or two bites of the noodles in front of them.
However, they don't have any appetite for food now. This chapter has been completed!
