Li Zhuang likes the company canteen very much. It is a good choice for a single man like him who does not have high requirements for eating. They lived in different places. When he grew up, he didn't like living in dormitories because they were noisy and chaotic.
The company¡¯s administrative department rented several houses in nearby communities to accommodate business personnel and new college students. Among the supervisors, only Li Zhuang did not have a family, so he lived with this group of people.
Li Zhuang¡¯s roommate is Xia Yuande, a native of this province. He graduated from a key university in Shanghai and worked as a technician for a year. Later, he couldn¡¯t bear it anymore and switched to business.
Xia Yuande is a tall and handsome guy who is extremely cheerful, lively and active, and a master of picking up girls. In the two years since I came to the company, I have had two girlfriends. Every time Xia Yuande came back from a business trip, it was a painful time for Li Zhuang.
The first girlfriend was alright and relatively shy, but the lingering moans from the next door still made the innocent little virgin confused all night long and couldn't sleep. The second one belonged to the bold and unrestrained faction, and his unrestrained screams were long and persistent, making Li Zhuang want to kick open their door and pull Xia Yuande off that girl.
One day, Li Zhuang finally couldn't bear it anymore and started negotiating with Xia Yuande.
"Ade, you can't do this, it will seriously affect my sleep quality!"
"I'm telling you, buddy, you're not young anymore. It's time to find a girl. It would be great to have fun together, so you don't have to keep eavesdropping."
Xia Yuande is very thick-skinned, especially when it comes to relationships between men and women. I don¡¯t know if the world has changed and Li Zhuang has fallen behind, or if it¡¯s just the way it is.
In the end, the two of them agreed and compromised with each other. When Xia Yuande's girlfriend came over, they would go out to live half of the time, and Li Zhuang would go to the dormitory with his colleagues for the other half of the time.
Putting aside the noisy attacks on Li Zhuang, Xia Yuande is a very good friend. He is eloquent, quick to respond, has no airs and is very popular. As a technician, Li Zhuang often went on business trips with Xia Yuande, and gained a lot of experience as a result.
Xia Yuande has a habit. Whenever he encounters something unhappy outside, he always holds back and comes back to tell Li Zhuang. His personality is like this. He likes to tell his unhappy things to his friends to relieve stress and irritability. Li Zhuang was very happy to be regarded as a friend by Xia Yuande.
The company's scale continues to expand. Excellent technical personnel, capable business, gradually formalized management and generous bosses keep employee turnover very small. In the fourth year after Li Zhuang came to the factory, his roommate Xia Yuande was promoted like a rocket and became the company's deputy business manager. Li Zhuang was also promoted and became the deputy manager of the production department, responsible for process, equipment maintenance and transformation. However, he often stepped into the field of the deputy manager of the technical department, which made the guy a little dissatisfied.
Director Yang began to take Li Zhuang to attend some important meetings outside, teaching Li Zhuang how to deal with government departments, suppliers, and customers. Li Zhuang knew that his boss wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law, but he did not dare to bring it up, so he had to use this method to gradually strengthen his recognition.
Xia Yuande also guessed this situation and joked with Li Zhuang: "Brother, how about you marry the older one and I marry the younger one. The boss will feel relieved and we will feel comfortable too."
Li Zhuang did not continue, he already had her in his heart. The two met at a sorority party between the two companies. The girl graduated from Z University and was from a prestigious school.
Li Zhuangte likes quiet, gentle, elegant and dignified women with high knowledge. Beautiful women are more attractive. Li Zhuang liked her at the first sight.
After the sorority party, a bunch of people coaxed her to go to the bar for a drink. She hesitated for a moment and went too. Li Zhuang would naturally not stop going.
That night, the lights in the bar were blurred, people were drunk and their eyes were blurred, and their hearts were full of spring. Couples of men and women swarmed into the dance floor. Those who thought they sang well went on stage and howled wildly.
Li Zhuang didn¡¯t know how to dance. He held a wine glass and watched other people performing in the field, and occasionally looked at her secretly from the corner of his eyes.
Everyone took turns on stage, and Xia Yuande also came on stage and shouted wildly. This guy has a very good psychological quality. He was indifferent to the overwhelming boos. In the end, he imitated Hong Kong and Taiwan singers and said thank you.
"Why are you staying here? Whoever you like, say it out loud!" Xia Yuande encouraged.
Suddenly, a surge of courage arose in his heart. Li Zhuang ordered a song called "Girl I Love You" by Suolang Tashi and walked onto the stage.
Li Zhuang was not used to being surrounded by strangers and was a little nervous. The ambiguous and psychedelic lights of the bar soothed his mood. When the melodious flute sounded, Li Zhuang had completely calmed down. The picture on the electronic screen reminded Li Zhuang of his hometown. There were also majestic mountains in his hometown, and the scenes of happiness and indulgence in the past suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
long hair,
??Dark eyes,
I seem to have seen you somewhere,
The Gesang flowers on the mountain are blooming so beautifully,
I want to pick one and give it to you personally,
¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤
A drunkard yelled under the stage, "DJ, turn off the original sound!" The DJ yelled back: "Only music!"
So everyone in the audience was shocked.
Li Zhuang¡¯s interpretation of this song is comparable to that of Suolang Tashi. His voice is very similar, but it has a different flavor, like singing and crying, and the simplicity and joy of the mountains and fields come to his face.
Only when you sing with your heart can you be moving.
After Li Zhuang finished singing, he took advantage of the wine and shouted: "Zhao Qinyin, I love you!"
The girls in the audience could no longer maintain their composure and relaxation, and got into a fuss amid the teasing laughter of their companions. Amid the uproar of "One more song", Li Zhuang confessed and returned to his place.
Xia Yuande rushed over and punched Li Zhuang, "Brother, you can't tell. You sing too coquettishly. You have the talent. I wish you good luck."
Li Zhuang wiped his sweat. Long-term self-discipline and practicing health-preserving skills have made him very stable. He never thought that he would have such a wild moment. He rarely sings, and his level is actually not very good, but he really liked this song when it came out and practiced it many times.
When they separated, Li Zhuang asked for the girl¡¯s QQ.
¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤
The sparkling lake and the Baochu Pagoda shaded by greenery in the distance all make people feel the breath of spring. Li Zhuang and the girl walked along the lakeside, like clouds and mist. In the past, the lakeside road seemed to be long, but today I hope it will not come to an end.
"My parents want to see you. I am the only child in my family and they want to see you."
"Haha, an ugly son-in-law always wants to see his mother-in-law. What gift should he bring?"
"Extra-grade Longjing, not too much. My father likes this very much."
Zhao¡¯s living room.
The girl¡¯s father looked at Li Zhuang with a scrutinizing gaze. Li Zhuang was a little cautious.
"Xiao Li, how old are you this year?"
"Twenty-seven." Li Zhuang is less than twenty-six, so according to local tradition, he must live in vain.
"I heard Ayin tell you about your family's situation. How do you plan to arrange your future life?"
¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤
Li Zhuang didn¡¯t even know how he walked out of the Zhao family¡¯s door.
Father Zhao is right. Li Zhuang has no academic qualifications and has to support his sister¡¯s studies. It will be difficult for him to get promoted in the short term. As a foreigner, in a place with such high housing prices in Hangzhou, it is impossible for him to afford a wedding house based on his income, and the girl is one year older than him. The Zhao family is from an average family and has no ability to provide them with additional assistance.
The future of the two people is cast into a shadow.
¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤
Later, Li Zhuang maintained a distant relationship with the girl, and the girl¡¯s QQ was still linked to his QQ friend, but the girl never took the initiative to talk to him and never went out together again.
On the last day of September, Li Zhuang called the girl and asked her to go out for a walk. The girl murmured: "I already have a boyfriend, and I plan to get married during the Chinese New Year. Our fate has passed."
At that moment, Li Zhuang felt an inexplicable tingling rising from his chest. Could this be the feeling of falling out of love? He originally thought he wouldn't feel pain, he was rational, he was strong, and he could accept her choice.
It seemed like a century had passed, and there was only silence between the two people.
"I wish you happiness!"
"Thank you! I also wish you find the right one as soon as possible."
I don¡¯t know who hung up the phone first.
Li Zhuang likes smart people, girls are very smart, and smart people know better how to choose. They both liked each other and were both restrained. Li Zhuang is somewhat inferior, a little weird, and a little arrogant, but he is diligent, simple, and very smart. The girl always felt that his life was too tasteless, and even if she told him, she didn't know how he got here after so many years. Logically speaking, the two of them should not have any intersection, but somehow she just liked him.
Like, sometimes you don¡¯t need to give a reason, right? But life needs reasons, and poor and humble couples suffer from everything.
The two people like each other silently. It is obvious that Li Zhuang has too many worries and is not willing to be a house slave, but the girl's father will not let the girl wait any longer. She is almost past her golden age.
Beautiful women are always pursued. Later, Li Zhuang heard that the girl's husband's family was in good condition, he was a multimillionaire, and his husband treated her very well.
Later, there was gradually no news.
Li Zhuang has never deleted girls¡¯ QQ, but apparently they rarely use QQ, and Li Zhuang doesn¡¯t like to use QQ either.
