When Tong Tong came back this time, Sun Chengcai always felt that he had become different. Sun's mother said that Tong Tong is promising now and is obviously a person who has studied.

Tong Tong smiled shyly and said modestly that although he had been to college, he could not compare with Sun Chengcai. Sun Chengcai was young and had bought two houses in Hong Kong City. Not only that, he had already started a family and started a career, had a lovely wife and children, and he became a winner in life in the eyes of others.

Sun Chengcai stened the cigarette butts, squinted his eyes, and said dissatisfiedly: "Just this relationship between us, don't you have to tell me this? You will flatter me too? Could it be that you have long regarded me as an outsider?"

Tong Tong waved his hand quickly: "How is it possible? All I say is the truth. I will never be polite with you."

Sun Chengcai still felt something strange. When he met again after a long time, he insisted on pulling Tong Tong to drink. But after doing business for a whole day, he was exhausted and finally fell on the table. In his sleepy eyes, he heard Tong Tong tell him that he would ask Chen Zeping to drink with him another day and not return without getting drunk.

"I won't go back if I'm drunk!" Sun Chengcai only remembered that he kept saying this sentence, and then he couldn't remember anything.

When he woke up the next day, Sun Chengcai still felt like he was having a dream. He had fantasized that after the two met again for a long time, they would hug each other tightly, then punch and kick, and shout loudly in a few bottles of beer, mixed with some vulgar words, complaining about the unhappiness over the years...

At least he and Chen Zeping were like this. But after seeing Tong Tong, none of the above happened. They seemed to be separated by a barrier, polite, but a little strange and alienated.

"Isn't it still blamed me for that incident back then? Or did I look down on me after I went to college?"

Amei told him not to think too much and advised: "I heard from you that his father has relapsed cancer? It's still very serious. How could he be in a good mood? It would be nice if he was in the mood to come to see you."

That's right. Sun Chengcai thought for a while, bought some fruit and snacks, and saw Lao Tong go. Lao Tong has been recuperating at home recently and has become skinny and bone-skinned, and he is even more powerless when speaking. Although summer has not passed, he still covers it tightly and his hair has fallen off. So he wears a hat, which is loose on his head and can fall off at any time.

Sun Chengcai felt very uncomfortable and didn't know what to say to comfort him. His appearance really couldn't believe that he would get better. Even so, Lao Tong said optimistically: "I am the most blessed in the three villages of happiness. Although they all have their own children, they can't keep up with my Tong Tong's filial piety."

"That's right, Tong Tong came back to work in order to take care of you."

Old Tong was practicing calligraphy, but he proudly said that the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were bought by Tong Tong, and they were of good quality. However, he was physically limited and every time he wrote a few words, he was so trembling that he couldn't hold the pen.

After Sun Chengcai came, he lay on the sofa and smiled hard, "I don't like you young people who are 'cancer' most, lazy cancer, embarrassing cancer, etc.... If you really have cancer, it depends on who can get it!"

"That's right! Most of the young people nowadays are complaining without any reason."

Old Tong smiled again and said, "You are not only here to come to see me, but also to find Tong Tong? He was busy at university, and school will start in a few days. The store has just been renovated. He wants to go and get the machine or what if he wants to do it."

Old Tong said three words to Tong Tong. He once hated the child he wanted to send him away, but now he has become his pride. He said that Tong Tong won several years of scholarships in college, won awards in national competitions, and started a business with several graduate students. "It is difficult for others to find a job after graduating from college, but he bought me this house before he finished his studies. I have lived in an elevator room in this life, and my bedroom is still south facing, bright! Even my heart is bright! Alas, although I can't live long, I am still happy!"

As Tong Tong said, the house he bought was indeed not very outstanding. It was remote, with six households in one elevator, only one side facing south, and the area was still very small. Perhaps many girls would not see this condition in the blind date market, but considering that it was the house he bought when he was a student, he was already amazing. And for Lao Tong, this house must be considered a luxury house.

Old Tong felt sorry for the adopted son, and he said, "Tong Tong worked very hard and tried every means to make money, but he had to buy a house, open a Taekwondo hall, and treat me. He couldn't save a penny. I heard from him that the money he used to open a store in college this time was borrowed from the bank."

"He told me last night, but I always feel that he had a lot of things he didn't tell me." Sun Chengcai said: "I want to lend him money, but he didn't want it. Did he treat me as an outsider?"

"Hey, how is it possible? He just has many things that are inconvenient to say. It is not easy to get into a civil servant exam. He is an official, decent, and stable. I want him to keep working, but I don't want him to resign. I have argued with him a few times about this, but I haven't been able to persuade him. To be honest, I don't know what civil servant he took, because he always says he needs to keep it secret. There is no way, and I dare not make a fuss. Otherwise, I would have shown off to your father. I just thought about it. Could he have taken the police exam? He doesn't feel very similar. He said, "I will talk later when I can."

Lao Tong's breath was too weak, and he talked about it and made Sun Chengcai feel tired. He was sure that Tong Tong did not intend to be alienated from him, so he received some comfort.

After coming out of the Tong family, Sun Chengcai called Chen Zeping again and told him the news that Tong Tong came back. Chen Zeping was so sleepy that he was dizzy. When he heard the news, he immediately became energetic: "Where is he? I have to beat him up! Grab his collar and slap him a few mouths... Oh, no, no, if you hit someone or not, then I will kick him hard! Kick him! Humph, it's been seven years, I have sent him countless QQs and made countless calls, but he has no news at all. Why are you here to come back now? Are you looking for a beating? I..."

"Okay, you, can you beat him?"

“…”

Chen Zeping was instantly silent.

"If you hadn't pulled him to play games back then, would he have missed Teacher Meng's last call?"

Chen Zeping felt spirited again and defended: "Don't just talk about me, the main fault is you! You hid his phone!"

The two complained to each other, and finally Sun Chengcai squatted out the cigarette butts and made up his mind: "I won't do business tonight, so I'll invite you two to dinner. I won't believe it anymore. Can't I warm him up this time?"

Tong Tong was busy at school until nine o'clock. When he heard that Sun Chengcai was going to treat him, he bought a beer and wanted to apologize to two good friends. But when he felt that Sun Ji was grilling, he was still stunned - the table was full, but it was all cold. Under the table was a box of beer neatly sized. Judging from the posture, he would not be drunk tonight.

Yes, how could such a big barbecue restaurant have no beer?

Tong Tong looked at the beer in his hand and couldn't help but laugh at himself secretly.

But there was not a single customer in such a big barbecue restaurant. How much money would you lose this night? But Sun Chengcai didn't care. He shouted at Tong Tong: "Why are you standing there? Come and eat!"

Tong Tong almost didn't recognize Chen Zeping, and looked at him for a long time. Chen Zeping smiled and said first: "Do you want to say that you can't recognize me?"

"Fat head and big ears, and a shiny face." Tong Tong complained: "They are all practicing dark things when they go to the army, and they also have a body of tendons. You, you..."

"Okay, I know I'm fat!" Chen Zeping didn't care at all: "Training is too tiring, I eat more. Once I eat too much, will I gain weight?"

After studying for a year in junior college, Chen Zeping was forced to the army by his father. Chen's father repeatedly told him to study hard and prepare for the military academy. He was smart and still had great hope. There were still people in the Chen family who were officers, so as long as he was admitted to the military academy, it would be a smooth road in the future.

But Chen Zeping was used to being lazy, and his two-year military career did not change his personality. He was perfunctory, but never took action. He had to go home until he was discharged from the army. When the father and son met, it was particularly touching. But before Chen Zeping had left the station, he was almost kicked back to the army by his father.

Chen Zeping wanted to go back to his hometown to open a cultural company, but it has not been opened yet. He just guarded the stationery store at the entrance of No. 2 Middle School and studied lottery and Zhou Yi carefully. He said that he would become an online writer in the future. Of course, it was just a talk. He hadn't started writing for several years.

He himself admitted that he was just a salted fish who was scattered.

"But when I win the grand prize or study Zhou Yi thoroughly, I will inevitably become a master in the online literature industry!"

The two good friends obviously didn't understand the relationship between the three. Sun Chengcai said mercilessly: "You are just a high-minded person and a low-key person, and idle!"

"Yeah." Chen Zeping didn't refute. He took a big sip of beer and said lazily: "In other words, I can calm down. If I don't, I will make a big splash."

Tong Tong still found it incredible: "If you didn't train you to become a materialist fighter for two years in military career, you have studied superstition, which has completely let you down the training of the Party and the country!"

"Zhouyi is a science, and even universities have this subject. Why do I engage in feudal superstition?" Chen Zeping said unconvincedly: "You sit so well and speak and do things in a straightforward way. You feel like you have been a soldier for several years."

"Come on!" Tong Tong patted his thigh and laughed: "You look down on me so much. Not only can I not be a soldier of the people, but I can't even be a policeman."

"Is it because of your life experience?"

"It's not all, my personality is not very suitable."

Sun Chengcai suddenly glanced at him, hehe, this guy still hid his mind very deeply. He kept practicing Tai Chi with his experiences over the past seven years.

Forget it, why are you still going around with him? Sun Chengcai sipped up with a sip of wine and said bluntly: "Tong Tong, to be honest, do you look down on us? Did you feel so arrogant after going to college? Or did you never let go of what happened seven years ago? At that time, everyone was ignorant little kids, and it was normal for Chen Zeping and I to feel very uncomfortable over the years. We have to make us feel guilty for the rest of our lives before you forgive us..."

"What are you talking about?" Tong Tong interrupted him: "I have always regretted the phone call seven years ago, and I have reflected on it for a long time. It's actually my fault. If I were not greedy for fun, I wouldn't miss the phone call anyway..."

Tong Tong said again: "Last night was the Zhongyuan Festival, and I saw you and Uncle Sun burn paper. Uncle Sun said, you also burn paper for Teacher Meng. For seven years, you insisted on burning paper for her... Do you know how moved I am? Forget it, I won't say those numb words in front of you."

Sun Chengcai was indignant just now. After hearing what he said, he immediately lost his temper. Tong Tong took a big sip of wine and said, "In the past seven years, I really have nothing to say, just study, start a business, and took the civil service exam. As a result, after working for a few days, something happened, which made me feel depressed... I am still suspended unlimitedly. These things are still internal secrets, and I really can't tell you!"
