After everything was arranged, Liu Siyuan went to pick up Chen Jun from get off work in a relaxed mood. He did not dare to enter the municipal government building directly. Many people still remembered him. Once he saw him going out with Chen Jun, it would definitely spread to Ouyang Qian's ears. There, it was even possible that she herself was in the city government office today. It would be terrible if she happened to bump into him. He knew that the person Ouyang Qian hated to see the most was Chen Jun.
He has very complicated feelings about Ouyang Qian, and it is nonsense to say he doesn't care. After all these days, and having physical contact with her, it is impossible for him to not care about her at all.
But Fang Xinyi obviously has a higher status in his heart. He originally planned to make it clear to Ouyang Qian yesterday, but something went wrong. He blamed himself for his lack of restraint. The small head controlled the big head and used the lower body to think. In the end, not only did he not make it clear
, on the contrary, the relationship between the two became even more entangled.
Relatively speaking, for him, he is actually the most comfortable and calm when he is with Chen Jun. The latter's view of love is not sure whether it is influenced by her favorite "composer" Zhang Ailing. Anyway, she is not very
It's normal. I don't know if all young literary and artistic people are like this. In short, Liu Siyuan finds it very interesting and difficult to understand.
He was waiting in a coffee shop near the city hall. The location was also chosen by her, which was also a typical choice for literary young people. In fact, Liu Siyuan still couldn't taste the coffee until now. It was bitter and not delicious at all, not to mention that it made him feel uncomfortable.
He went to distinguish various types of coffee, and Chen Jun was particularly good at this. She could tell a thing or two about each type of coffee beans.
Chen Jun didn't let him wait too long before showing up. She was wearing a professional outfit today and looked a bit mature. Speaking of which, she was two years older than Liu Siyuan and was the oldest among his women.
.Ouyang Qian is less than a year older than him, and Fang Xinyi is two years younger than him.
"Have you eaten yet?" she asked calmly after sitting down.
Liu Siyuan shrugged and said, "Of course, I'm waiting for you to eat together. Are there any good places you can recommend? I'm just a bumpkin in town now, and I don't know anything."
Chen Jun smiled and said, "Okay, since it's rare for you to go back to the city, I'll treat you today, so come with me."
She chose a newly opened Hong Kong-style tea restaurant. The decoration is quite modern and sentimental. The food is not expensive, looks exquisite and tastes good. There are mostly young people around, especially young couples.
The only drawback is that the environment is a little noisy. But the two of them don't mind. In fact, when they get along, as long as they only see each other, the noise around them is nothing.
"Many of my classmates have gotten married recently, and a month's salary is basically given to those red bombs, so I can't afford to hire someone too good. Secretary Liu, please forgive me." Chen Jun said with a slightly playful look. It seemed that she was in a good mood.
Liu Siyuan was also amused by her and said: "I really have no money so I can only pretend to be sick and not go."
Chen Jun said with a helpless expression: "The current market situation is that you don't have to go, but you have to get the red envelope."
Liu Siyuan was speechless for a while. It seemed that he had become somewhat alienated from his old classmates after graduation. Especially after going to Beixi Town, most of his old classmates even lost contact.
Suddenly he understood that what Chen Jun mentioned was on purpose. She was over twenty-five years old, and her classmates, especially the female classmates, were getting married one after another. It seemed that she was a little stressed.
"It seems that I have lost contact with my old classmates, and I feel ashamed." Liu Siyuan said with emotion.
Chen Jun smiled and said: "That's because you are too busy. It must be very hard to run a small town. But recently I checked the situation of Beixi Town. Although I have never been there, I can tell from those pictures that it is a beautiful place.
, I especially like those roads paved with colorful bricks. You live there every day, it’s very romantic.”
Liu Siyuan laughed and said: "Beixi is indeed beautiful. Comrade Chen Jun is welcome to visit. I can't see it every day, but there is one thing I like very much. The place I live is at the foot of the mountain, and the air is better than in the provincial capital."
a lot of."
The two chatted like old friends, and time passed quickly. After dinner, Liu Siyuan sent her all the way to the door of her house.
"Would you like to come up and sit down?" Chen Jun's invitation was a bit sudden. Liu Siyuan didn't know for a moment whether she was being polite or sincere. He had been to her home once, and that was the only time in his life that she allowed him to enjoy some kind of service.
Seeing his hesitation, Chen Jun probably guessed what was going on. She said softly: "Maybe you can stay with me today. It's more comfortable than staying in a hotel."
Seeing that she was sincere enough to not be polite, Liu Siyuan naturally had no reason to refuse, so he followed her upstairs.
Chen Jun seemed to love being clean. The first thing he did after entering the house was to ask him to take a shower. When Liu Siyuan was about to go in and wash himself, he was surprised to find that she had actually prepared a brand new set of pajamas for him.
"Didn't you stay at my place for one night last time? I saw that it was troublesome for you to have no pajamas, so I bought a set according to your size." She explained calmly.
Liu Siyuan first sighed with emotion at her thoughtfulness, and then was surprised to realize that she seemed to have already prepared for him to stay overnight again.
Liu Siyuan felt refreshed after taking a bath. While she was taking a bath, he casually looked around in her room. Among them, an open collection of Zhang Ailing's essays on the desk attracted his attention. He had rarely seen this kind of literary youth before.
His favorite book. He found that there was a sentence in it that Chen Jun had drawn out with a red pen:
'Keeping a heart is not like guarding a cat. When it is cold, it comes to snuggle with you; when it is hungry, it comes to call you; when it is itchy, it comes to rub you; when it gets tired, it sneaks away. Guard a heart
Heart, how I wish to be like guarding a dog, not that you guard it, but that it guards you.
Liu Siyuan does not keep pets, but he also knows that dogs are loyal to their owners and cats are often loyal to the place where they feel comfortable. So like most men, he prefers dogs to cats that always have a bit of evil nature. (According to the family,
Cat lovers don’t blame me)
It was just that he thought sadly that women seemed to prefer cats. He remembered that every time a cat abuse incident occurred, ten out of ten people who jumped out in anger were women. This meant that among women in this world, most of them seemed to have cat-like personalities.
In fact, it is understandable that women are often in a weak position in their careers, so they need more security and want to find a place where they feel comfortable.
So how many people in this world are really working wholeheartedly for another person?
"Why are you so dazed?" Chen Jun's voice came from behind, carrying a wisp of fragrance after bathing. She gently held his shoulders, leaned down, and teased his neck with her long hair, tickling him again.
Some little excitement.
"Oh, it's nothing, just look around." Liu Siyuan smiled sheepishly.
"Do you also like Zhang Ailing?" Chen Jun looked at the book he was reading and asked with a little surprise.
"Haha, my quality is relatively low. I don't usually like reading, but I felt a little emotional after reading this sentence. It is said that few boys like Zhang Ailing, right?" Liu Siyuan said honestly.
Chen Jun nodded and said casually: "Back then, he also disliked Zhang Ailing and said she was pretentious."
After saying that, she looked into the distance and seemed to be in a daze.
"Still thinking about him?" Liu Siyuan couldn't help but ask, although he regretted it after asking because the question was a bit too sensitive.
Fortunately, Chen Jun nodded and didn't particularly mind. After a while, he sat on the bed and looked at him and said: "He called me last week and said that he was now working in sales at a private enterprise. It seemed that the boss valued him very much.
He also said that he would marry me when he comes back after making money."
Liu Siyuan was stunned, and instinctively asked: "Then what do you say?"
"I just said a few perfunctory words, it is impossible for me and him, I am a cat." Chen Jun forced a smile and said. "He is just such a person. Rather than pursuing true love, I prefer a stable life."
Liu Siyuan said oh, but she seemed to gradually fall into memories and said: "I remember when I was in college, he was on our school's debate team. He always made impassioned speeches on various occasions. He once planned to write novels on the Internet, saying that he was
I plan to get rich from writing.”
Liu Siyuan asked curiously: "What happened next?"
Chen Jun recalled: "It was okay at the beginning. What he wrote was very yy, about destroying the Japanese country first, and then destroying the American emperor. What was more amazing was that there were also some angry young people like him who echoed it. Gradually,
He had a fixed readership. He was also very happy at that time, saying that he might be able to make money before he graduated, and then his novel was put on the shelves, which meant that paid chapters started. As a result, almost overnight, that
All the angry young fans who had been shouting with him all day long disappeared, the number of collections continued to decline, and there was no minimum income guarantee for writing. As a result, he earned more than ten yuan a month, which was just enough to buy a few steamed buns."
Liu Siyuan smiled bitterly and said: "There is nothing we can do about it. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Writing is a matter of talent and opportunity. On the other hand, it is also a great test of willpower. It is not difficult to write tens of thousands of words. It is rare.
It is to write hundreds of thousands or even millions of words continuously. The most difficult thing is to persist with a pitifully small collection. I think there is a saying that is particularly good. Writing a book is actually a kind of spiritual cultivation."
Chen Jun agreed: "In fact, if he persisted, he might be able to write some small results. Even if he couldn't make money through writing, at least his will and soul could be cleansed. As a result, he seemed to feel that his results were dismal, especially the declining ones.
The number of collections made him extremely humiliated, so he gave up writing. In today's popular words, he became a eunuch." She blushed slightly when she mentioned the word 'eunuch'.
Liu Siyuan thought for a while and said: "A friend of mine told me that in anything, you must learn to persevere in adversity, otherwise you will never expect success."
