Looking at the scenery passing by outside the car window, Xu Tonglu stretched comfortably. After stretching, he adjusted the earplugs in his ears.
He was on the train to Tianyun City. In order to pass the boring travel time, he was listening to music on a CD and wearing earplugs.
He's on summer vacation.
Thinking that from now on, his home would change from Shazhou County to Tianyun City, he felt that things in the world were changing too fast.
A few years ago, his brother bought a small courtyard in Shazhou County, near the County No. 1 Middle School, and the whole family moved there.
From that time on, their family even moved out of Xujiacun.
Now, how many years have passed?
His brother actually bought another villa in Tianyun City, the provincial capital, and wanted to move them again.
Apart from this, he didn't know whether his brother had bought a house elsewhere, but he knew that in Shanghai, near Fudan University where he studied, his brother had already bought him a house at the beginning of his freshman year.
house.
Buy a house...
For other families, it should be a big deal.
But leaving this matter to his brother, it seemed to be normal and just a matter of thought.
How many years has it been since your father disappeared until now?
Their family has changed so much, how can they not make him lament the impermanence of the world?
He doesn't even know how much his brother's net worth is now, but he knows that as soon as his brother's instant noodle company goes public, his net worth will definitely exceed 100 million.
A net worth of hundreds of millions...
With such a net worth, even in today's magical city where rich people are everywhere, he can still be considered a rich person, right?
Thinking back to the time when the family was in the most difficult situation, he and his brother were arguing over who should drop out of school to earn money to support the family... Xu Tonglu smiled bitterly.
Although he has always been very confident in his learning ability.
But he was not arrogant enough to think that if he, Xu Tonglu, had dropped out of school to make money, he would have done better than his brother Xu Tongdao in the past few years.
Sometimes, he wonders how his brother, who only has a junior high school education and experience, is so good at business.
In the past few years, he has only seen his brother's business prosper and become more and more impressive. Surprisingly, he has never seen him lose money.
He doesn’t talk much! Why is he so good at business?
In Xu Tonglu's impression, businessmen seem to be the kind who are very talkative and can deceive people.
But in his impression, his elder brother Xu Tongdao didn't talk much, and what he said didn't always make people feel like a breath of fresh air. Sometimes it could even make people half-dead.
But...
That guy Xu Tongdao's business is getting bigger and bigger, and he seems to be going nowhere.
It's really weird.
Xu Tonglu looked at the scenery outside the car window, and while he was thinking about this, he didn't notice that there were two girls in the same carriage, about seven or eight rows away, who were secretly paying attention to him.
These two girls...
One has long hair, long body and long legs, fair skin and beautiful appearance, and is wearing a white dress.
The other has short hair that is close to his ears, is slightly smaller in stature, has the same good looks, and is dressed very delicately.
At this time, the girl with long hair was talking in a low voice to the girl with short hair.
"Hey, Jingjing, that guy is Xu Tonglu, the finance major in our school, right? It's him, right?"
The short-haired girl who was called "Jingjing" was also observing Xu Tonglu at this time. Hearing this, he hummed and replied in a low voice: "It must be him! He is the best basketball player in his class, and there are many girls who like him.
, However, I heard that his family is from a rural area and his family conditions should not be very good. Otherwise, even I might be interested in him, hehe."
The long-haired girl gave her a sideways look in a funny way, "Oh, so you, Cao Jingjing, are so snobbish? Why didn't I see that before? Hehe."
Cao Jingjing, a girl with short hair, rolled her eyes at her, "How about I'm just a snobbery? It's not like you don't know what kind of person my mother is? His family is from a rural area. Even if I do fall in love with him, my mother will definitely not do it in the future.
If he agrees to marry me, what's the point?
Aren't you snobby? If you weren't snobbish, go ahead and take him down! Hum, with your charm, Rui Xiaoou, are you afraid that you won't be able to take down this guy? Huh?"
The long-haired girl chuckled, shook her head and said, "Me? I'll forget it! I'm afraid his living expenses won't be enough to treat me to dinner. It's too tiring to fall in love with someone like him..."
Cao Jingjing snickered, "Then you can treat him to dinner! I heard that this guy is not only good at basketball, but also tops his class in academic performance. Also, if you look at his tall body, he also has a good-looking face.
Isn’t it ugly? If I walk together with you, I’ll really match you!”
The long-haired girl Rui Xiaoou seemed a little moved when she heard this.
He stared carefully at Xu Tonglu not far away and looked again and again, and finally sighed and shook his head, "Forget it! If you are tall, have good academic performance, or play basketball well, what can you do? These can't be used as food.
Eat! It comes from the countryside... Oh! What a pity. If it hadn't come from the countryside, I might actually be interested."
Cao Jingjing chuckled.
The two of them dismissed the topic and no longer paid attention to Xu Tonglu.
until……
The train stopped at Tianyun City Station. Rui Xiaoou stood up to pick up his luggage and was about to get off the train when his eyes suddenly caught sight of Xu Tonglu not far away who was also picking up his suitcase and preparing to get off the train.
Rui Xiaoou was startled, then quietly touched Cao Jingjing next to him with his elbow, moved his mouth toward Xu Tonglu, and asked in a low voice: "Hey, that's not right! Jingjing, look at that guy, why is he here too?
Are you getting off at Yun City? Is his home located in a village near Tianyun City? You have known him, but do you remember where his home is specifically? Is it near our Tianyun City?"
Hearing this, Cao Jingjing followed her gaze and looked over.
He frowned slightly and shook his head slightly, "I can't remember clearly, but...it shouldn't be near Tianyun City! Otherwise, I should have some impression."
Rui Xiaoou suddenly thought of a possibility, "Hey, do you think he came to our Tianyun City to work during the summer vacation?"
Cao Jingjing was startled, then shook her head, "That's probably not the case, right? If you want to work, it's not easier to find a job in Magic City than in our Tianyun City? Why should he waste the fare to come to Tianyun City?"
Rui Xiaoou frowned, "That's right! Then why do you think he came to our Tianyun City?"
Cao Jingjing dragged her suitcase to the door and said as she walked: "You don't care about him! He is from a rural area anyway. If you are really interested in him, go and take him down. If you don't want to take him down, just take him down."
Leave him alone! Let’s go, let’s go! Get off the car quickly!”
Upon hearing this, Rui Xiaoou shrugged, glanced at Xu Tonglu one last time, and then got out of the car without looking back.
…
Xu Tonglu, who was not far away, didn't know that the two girls were talking about him just now.
He didn't even recognize that these two girls were from Fudan University.
He was dragging his suitcase and carrying a shoulder bag. He was tall and had long legs, and he got out of the car with the crowd with a calm expression.
