"Are you two going to have a meal?" Bai Yourong's eyes widened: "You are such a good brother, you are so calculating. You owe us one hundred thousand yuan. If you pay back four thousand yuan, I will give you a discount on what you pay back."
Why don’t I have to thank him for a meal? Isn’t it because I have raised a biological father?”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Shan frowned: "When I chased you in high school, didn't Haidong help me a lot? When did I get beaten and Haidong didn't stand in front of me? My family was still very poor at that time.
Haidong treated you to a meal at the hotel for your birthday! The fact that he can help me like this shows that he is not a bad person at all! He didn’t say he wouldn’t pay back the money, hasn’t he already started to pay back the money?”
"Can you please don't disturb the child?"
"Close the bedroom door and I'll have a talk with you." Liu Shan pointed.
"What's there to talk about? He borrowed so much money from our family, so he should pay it back. Why should we treat him to dinner?" Bai Yourong frowned coldly, not giving in at all.
"We are brothers who grew up in the same dormitory. We haven't seen each other for such a long time. What's wrong with sitting together for a meal? Do people have to give up their feelings?" Liu Shan's face was full of confusion. He didn't understand.
Why is it so difficult to communicate with Bai Yourong now?
"You have to take care of your wife and children first. That kind of gambler is a bad person! Everyone is staying away from him, why do you still want to lean on him?"
When Bai Yourong yelled, the child was awakened and started crying in the bedroom.
Liu Shan shook his head helplessly, turned around and entered the kitchen.
"I can't smell the smell of alcohol. If you go drinking with him tonight, don't come back!" Bai Yourong said at the kitchen door while holding her child.
Liu Shan's face darkened.
…
The nights in early autumn are charming. Although the weather has become slightly cooler, it still cannot stop the crowds of people coming and going on the neon street, whether they are eating or having entertainment, they are all bustling and feeling the last happy time before the cold.
In the noisy little shop, the sweaty female boss kept her hands and feet off the ground, serving skewers.
"Boss, come to a good seat." Liu Shan greeted happily, and the landlady responded. When she saw him and Zhang Haidong, she was stunned for a moment, then pointed in surprise: "You are..."
"That's right, we are the two generals of Hengha who swept through Jinmen No. 2 Middle School. We come to your place for barbecue every week. Now we have gone our separate ways for more than ten years, and we come back to you to reminisce about the past." Liu
Shan smiled and said.
"Hahaha, remember. You two were the most naughty at that time. You would run out in the middle of the night if you didn't study in the evening, and then the dean would take you back from my store." The landlady smiled and opened the table for the two of them enthusiastically.
.
"Well, it's not because you bake delicious food. I want to taste your craftsmanship. Oh, by the way, your boy comes to the store every day during the holidays. I watched him grow up.
.”
The landlady laughed and said: "Hey, that little guy took the college entrance examination this year and passed the junior college. His father and I have no ability, but we still hope that he will become a dragon and a phoenix. Who knows that he doesn't study hard either, always thinking about something.
No. By the way, let’s take your favorite snowflake before?” the landlady asked with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you are a college graduate or you have the right major. Instead of drinking snowflakes, have some white ones. Let's drink rose wine to warm yourself up. Let's have a platter first, and you can grill the rest of the skewers." Liu Shan said
Then, they took the wine, opened it, and each poured a glass for them.
"Okay, you guys eat first, the barbecue will be served shortly." The landlady brought the cold dishes and hurried to work.
"Come on, Brother Dong, take a sip first." Liu Shan picked up the cup and touched it with Zhang Haidong.
A sip of wine instantly warmed my body.
Zhang Haidong's eyes suddenly warmed up as he looked at this busy shop. Although the whole talent was reborn not long ago, this most familiar environment has been separated for more than ten years. Even the son of the proprietress who ran all over the place has already passed the exam.
After graduating from college, she went to a distant place. The once dignified and beautiful landlady also had a lot of gray hair on her temples.
The image is still in my mind, just like it was yesterday, but it feels like a lifetime ago.
"What's going on, Brother Dong, you can't drink anything white now? Why are you still crying?" Liu Shan asked in surprise.
"No, no." Zhang Haidong wiped his eyes and explained quickly.
"Oh... no wonder you want to have a drink with me. If there's something wrong at home, there's something wrong at work." Liu Shan took two big bites of the cold dish, and then continued: "Tell me what's going on, is it?
Didn't you just join the company and some old employees deliberately suppressed the new employees and bullied you?"
"The job is very good. Although I have only worked for the first month, my supervisor directly gave me a bonus, totaling more than 7,000. The days are getting more and more promising." Zhang Haidong smiled and took a mouthful of cold vegetables.
Not bad, it still tastes like it did back then.
"Is there something wrong at home? It shouldn't be. You were the super school girl of our Jinmen No. 2 Middle School. Which girl wouldn't chase after you when she saw you? Isn't it because Du Jing admires you?
, I have followed you wholeheartedly for so many years. By the way, you are not cheating on me..." Liu Shan's eyes widened.
Is Du Jing pursuing her because she was infatuated with her back then?
Zhang Haidong desperately wanted to know how he and Du Jing were together back then, but then he thought about it and gave up.
"How is that possible? I just feel that time is passing by. We haven't been here for a long time. The landlady has white hair on her temples." Zhang Haidong said, in order to cover up his embarrassment, he quickly picked up the wine and took a sip, and then changed the subject: "
How about you, how have you been lately? Bai Yourong is a serious college beauty, and Ren Meibo has a good temper, so you can live a good life."
Unexpectedly, Liu Shan fell silent when he asked this question.
After raising his head and drinking a gulp, Liu Shan slowly said: "That's it. I've been a little tired of my life recently. I want to divorce her, but I don't want to live with her anymore."
"Why?" Zhang Haidong was very surprised.
They were first in love, and they have been in a relationship for at least ten years, from high school to now. I looked through the text messages on my phone before, and I saw that the two of them had just had a child. They were in such a monolithic relationship, how could they be thinking about divorce?
?
"Hey, it's not like you don't know that I've always been a carefree person, and I'm not a good responsible man at heart, and she is a woman who focuses on her own nest. She needs to be ambitious and fall in love with a progressive man to guard that.
Xiaojia. So, doesn’t this mean that we have different ideas?” Liu Shan smiled bitterly and started eating mutton skewers.
Zhang Haidong was confused again.
In high school, Liu Shan was a good buddy who was absolutely loyal and responsible. As long as anything was given to him, there was nothing he couldn't do. How could he be such a careless person?
Is it possible that in the past ten years, not only has he changed, but Liu Shan has also changed?
