Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After finishing his work at the old company, Li Zhuang took a two-day break.

    Now, due to some inexplicable reasons, the supply chain system of most factories is generally in chaos. Purchasing staff are very hard, production staff are very depressed, sales staff are very irritable, but technical staff are relatively relaxed.

    Equipment was temporarily unavailable, so Li Zhuang seized this rare opportunity to go to Shanghai to visit an old classmate with whom he had been very close during his freshman year in high school. However, he had lost contact with her for two years.

    An old classmate¡¯s surname is Sun, a precious treasure.  This name is very similar to the famous Squibb of China and the United States, but this person is still studying biology, which is even more unbearable. Fortunately, it was a little bit worse and he did not enter the pharmaceutical industry.

    Comrade Sun Guibao, a non-party member, graduated from the famous F University in Shanghai with a Ph.D.

    Sun Guibao is the upper bunk brother of Li Zhuang in the first year of high school, which is a very special relationship.  This guy was also very interesting looking and extremely honest. To use a disrespectful word to describe him, he "looked like a national treasure", so he got a nickname, "Guo Bao", so he simply changed his name to Guo Bao.

    Comrade Guo Bao has a super high IQ. When he was a freshman in high school, he always occupied the first place in the class and refused to move. This made other people grit their teeth with hatred.  But this guy has a naturally good temper, and he can't find any fault even if he wants to.  Fortunately, the national treasure finally fell. In his second year of high school, he was chased by a little beauty. He persisted until his third year of high school and finally fell, and then fell off the throne.  The little beauty was forced to drop out of school, and then Comrade Guo Bao was very angry, so he regrouped, and within a month he went from outside the top 20 to the top five, and finally entered the biology base class of F University.

    This guy is the legend of Lizhuang High School, known as "the most infatuated evildoer in K in history." It is said that P planned to recruit a special recruit, but the evildoer rejected him. He is a very proud person and never wants to be given charity.

    The subsequent story is also legendary.  Guobao and his classmates went to a restaurant far away for dinner, and somehow met a young beauty, and the two rekindled their old relationship.  After graduating as a doctor, Guobao married a young beauty despite the opposition of his family. The two now have a daughter who is almost two years old.

    Li Zhuang didn¡¯t drive when he went to Shanghai this time. The traffic jam in this corner was really driving people crazy.  One time he drove to Shanghai and it happened to be rush hour. He was stuck in traffic on the elevated highway for three and a half hours. His foot on the clutch was numb. Only then could he understand why automatic transmissions were so popular in this city.  Hangzhou is also very congested, but he is familiar with it and rarely enters the central area.

    It happened to be a break, and Guobao¡¯s whole family came to pick up Li Zhuang.  The car was driven by his wife. Comrade Guo Bao had a driver's license, but unfortunately he was one of the blind, so he could only be a passenger.

    "Li Zhuang, it's been a long time no see. You didn't come over to see me earlier when we were so close." The two people who had been in contact by email exchanged greetings.

    "Come on, let me introduce you, this is my wife Han Qingxiu; this is my daughter, Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan, call me uncle!"

    "Hello, uncle!" Yuanyuan is very well-behaved.

    "Hello Yuanyuan, hello sister-in-law," Li Zhuang also greeted his national treasure wife: "I have long admired her name!"

    Guobao¡¯s wife blushed a little. They were classmates in the same school, but Li Zhuang dropped out of school early. What happened next was told by a close high school classmate, but they didn¡¯t know each other.

    A Chinese restaurant near Guobao¡¯s house.

    "Li Zhuang, where is your wife?" Guobao asked.

    "Hey, don't mention it, I'm still single now," Li Zhuang smiled bitterly.

    "You must be too demanding. If you are like me, you will have everything soon." Guobao smiled and avoided his wife's Nine-Yin White Bone Claw.

    "I can't compare with you. My starting point is low. It's not easy to do things now. I'm an older young man now. Many girls are too realistic. Only young and rich are popular," Li Zhuang explained.

    "Alas, you are also a miserable person." As a friend, Guobao was very familiar with Li Zhuang's past and felt sorry for him. If there hadn't been so many accidents, Li Zhuang would have at least been able to get to the top.  When they were in the first year of high school, their rankings were very close, and Li Zhuang was also one of those people who gritted their teeth at the national treasure comrade.

    "What are you doing now?" Guobao asked, ignoring his wife's look.  He only knew that Li Zhuang was working on technology, and the two of them usually didn't have too in-depth communication.  Li Zhuang is too busy, and the national treasure is busy and idle. Han Qingxiu feels that Li Zhuang has not graduated from high school, and he probably is not doing well now. He asks too many questions, fearing that Li Zhuang will be in a bad mood.

    "I am now a freelancer. I do some programs myself and then help several factories maintain equipment." Li Zhuang has no qualifications to show off in front of the national treasure, and there is no need.

    "By the way, I just bought a house in Hangzhou. If you have time to visit Hangzhou, don't forget to come and visit my house." Li Zhuang added after saying that he wanted to share good things with his friends. He knew that national treasures are not that kind of things.  A person who wishes everyone in the world had a worse life than him.

      "You can do it, kid, you've made a fortune," Guo Bao was also very happy for him: "Now that you have a house, it should be easier to find a wife. Girls nowadays are looking for houses, and they can't compare with before."

    "Maybe." Li Zhuang was noncommittal.

    After everyone finished eating happily, Li Zhuang went to Guobao's house to sit for a while.

    The house in Guobao's house is a welfare house of the work unit, which is regarded as a subsidy for senior talents.  No matter what debates there are about the policy in society, at least Li Zhuang feels that people like Guobao are fully qualified to enjoy this kind of treatment.  Although there are not few talents, outstanding people are in the minority after all, and some people need special treatment. This is understandable.  He also knows that this policy has too many loopholes, but the national conditions are such that there is no way to make fundamental changes unless it is completely reformed, but that is impossible in the short term.

    Yuanyuan was making noises about going to bed. Li Zhuang knew that Guobao was very busy, so he said goodbye and left.

    Before leaving, Guobao gave the contact information of another classmate so that he could have time to contact him.

    This classmate¡¯s name is Zhou Zhi. He is quite special. He has a specialty and is good at taking exams.  I went to university in Lizhuang, a key university in the province. I later studied as a graduate student at J University in Shanghai. After graduation, I stayed in Shanghai to work in a physics research institute and married a local girl.

    Li Zhuang looked down on him before, but now he understands.  Haha, being able to take exams is also a kind of talent, which means you have special abilities in certain aspects.  Zhou Zhi usually doesn't perform well, but when it comes to big exams, his ranking always rises significantly.  This cannot be explained as psychological quality. The psychological quality of most people is still passable, and only a few fail.

    I called Zhou Zhi when I went out. Zhou Zhi was not available. The institute was working on a project in the past two months.  Li Zhuang knew that the institute was often like this. When it was free, it was very busy, and when it was busy, it was too busy to find anything.

    Zhou Zhi was very enthusiastic and told Li Zhuang to definitely come to him the next time he came to Shanghai. Li Zhuang also asked him to go to Hangzhou with the national treasure when he was free.

    After hanging up the phone, Li Zhuang had nothing to do. When he got interested, he planned to go shopping at Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street.  When he came to Xujiahui, Li Zhuang remembered that he was still short of accessories, so he went to the computer store to buy some.

    After coming out of the Computer City, Li Zhuang suddenly lost interest in going to Nanjing Road.

    "Okay, don't go if you don't want to go." Li Zhuang said to himself. There is a large bookstore in Ganghui. Let's take a look at what is not available in Hangzhou and buy some.

    It¡¯s very lively inside the building. This place is one of the central areas. The house price has long exceeded 40,000. I don¡¯t know how much it is now. It is estimated to be many times higher. It is still out of reach.

    Li Zhuang squeezed through the crowd, finally got on the escalator, and waited for the escalator to go up.  The moment he stepped off the escalator, Li Zhuang saw her.

    She was holding a little boy and was slowly coming down the escalator. She was dressed in white and had her hair tied up in a high bun. She looked noble and elegant. Her oval face was lightly painted with powder, and her complexion was round and radiant.

    She also saw Li Zhuang.

    Li Zhuang was carrying a tattered net bag with no idea what was inside. A thick and tacky necklace hung around his neck. The suit he wore was wrinkled and the quality of the suit was not that good.  The legs of his trousers were hanging down on his leather shoes that had a few footprints on them.

    The two looked at each other.

    Li Zhuang felt that the noise around him seemed to disappear in an instant, and he only heard her asking softly: "Li Zhuang, are you here too? Are you okay? Long time no see!"

    It has been four years since the last phone call between the two. This is the first time Li Zhuang has seen her.

    "This is my son Xiaoyong, Xiaoyong, call him uncle!"

    "Hello, uncle." The little boy's milky voice brought Li Zhuang back to reality.

    Li Zhuang touched the little boy's head and forced a bitter smile on his face, "I'm fine. I'm very happy to see you doing well!"

    The two said goodbye quietly.

    Li Zhuang walked up the escalator blankly like a fool. When he reached the end, he realized that he had passed the bookstore floor.  He couldn't help but recall Zhang Ailing's famous sayings in his mind. These were Zhang Ailing's words that he didn't remember much.

    "Among hundreds of people, meet the person you are going to meet. In thousands of years, in the boundless wilderness of time, there are two people, neither a step too early nor a step too late. They meet like this, and there is no  There is nothing left to say except to say softly: Oh, are you here too?"

    ??The fate comes again and again, but never the part.  He is still him, and she is someone else's mother.  She lived a happy life, Li Zhuang was happy for her, and her choice was not wrong.  As for Li Zhuang, perhaps it is just an insignificant wave in the long river of her life.
