Chapter 19: A New Journey
Busy time always passes quickly, and before you know it, it slips through your fingers.
After Lu Chen finished preparing for the relevant work, the time for the start of school was approaching, Xiaopang wanted to go back to Jiangbei to repeat his studies, Lu Chen wanted to come back to pick up Shen Xuening, and Siyan also wanted to go home for a small gathering, so the three of them went back to Jiangbei City.
Three days later, Lu Chen, together with Shen Xuening and Four-Eyed Zhang Mingcheng, bid farewell to their relatives and the land that had raised them for many years, and once again stepped on the bus to Yunhai City and started a new journey in life.
As soon as the bus got on the highway, the speed gradually increased, the trees on both sides of the road quickly retreated, the sun hung high in the sky, the sun was shining, and the peaks in the distance rose and fell one after another, like a continuous dragon.
Among the three, Shen Xuening left Jiangbei City for the first time, everything seemed unfamiliar, looking at the scenery outside the window, her little hand kept holding Lu Chen tightly, and her palms were a little sweaty.
Fortunately, with Lu Chen by his side, Shen Baobao's heart was obviously much more stable.
In her previous life, Shen Xuening applied for a student loan to complete her studies, but in this life, because of Lu Chen's care, she only needs to study with peace of mind.
At first, the three of them talked and laughed, which was not boring, but two hours later, after the topic was over, sleepiness also came, and they fell asleep one after another.
"Flight attendants, flight attendants, please look at who is so immoral and smokes in the bathroom and smokes ...... death"
In a daze, Lu Chen heard a high-pitched female voice roaring and calling out to the flight attendant.
Lu Chen yawned, Shen Xuening also woke up from Lu Chen's shoulder, the two looked at each other blankly, and turned their heads to look ahead.
"It's too lacking in morality, who is it? stand up for the old lady......"
The middle-aged aunt had a thick waist and big legs, pinched her waist, and glared angrily at the male compatriots in the car.
"Auntie, sit down first, and I'll take care of this. ”
A woman dressed as a flight attendant is urging her: "The car is running at high speed, for your safety, it is better to wear a seat belt." ”
"Yes, just sit down and leave the matter to the flight attendant. ”
A middle-aged man next to her also pulled her, and it seemed that it should be her family.
"You useless thing, if you have the courage to stand up and ask, do I need to show my head?"
The middle-aged woman has nowhere to vent when she is angry, so she starts to attack her husband.
Although the women made a lot of noise, no one in the carriage still admitted it, and it was true that the air in the car was not very good, it was originally a sealed space, which would be full of smoke and choking, and Lu Chen couldn't stand an old smoking gun, let alone women and children.
Shen Xuening frowned and covered her mouth and nose, and there was a rare anger in her peach blossom eyes.
"May I ask which gentleman smoked in the bathroom?"
The attendant was entangled by the woman and couldn't help it, grabbed the microphone and asked: "The car is a sealed space, smoking is harmful to health, we have a clear prohibition of smoking, and please respect yourself, don't do it again, otherwise we have the right to call the police." ”
After saying this, there was a lot of discussion in the carriage, everyone looked at each other, but no one admitted it.
In this regard, the flight attendant was also helpless, but the flight attendant had to warn that the middle-aged woman was not good to continue to press, and under the persuasion of her husband, she also sat back in her position.
At this time, Lu Chen obviously noticed that the man in the black suit in the back seat was acting a little strangely, and when the flight attendant warned him, he kept pretending to sleep, which would see that things were pressed down, and he looked around again.
Suddenly, he noticed that Lu Chen had been staring at him, and when his eyes met, he smiled, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Lu Chen shook his head, ignored him, and held Shen Xuening's hand to signal her to relax.
"Passengers, we have arrived at the service area, we will rest for 20 minutes, please bring all your valuables and get ready to get off the bus. ”
The car drove for another ten minutes, and the voice of the attendant came from inside the car.
Lu Chen straightened up, put his luggage on his back, and led Shen Xuening to get up and get out of the car.
opened the floodgates, washed his face briefly, and while Shen Xuening had not returned, Lu Chen and Siyan stood in the corner and lit a cigarette, and as soon as they took a puff, a voice sounded in their ears: "Friend, do you have a fire?" ”
Turning his head, he saw that the person who came was the man in the suit in the car, on a hot day, dressed tightly, and he didn't feel hot.
Lu Chen didn't speak, took out a lighter and handed it to the other party.
"Hehe, friend, if you have any cigarettes, borrow another cigarette. ”
The man in the suit laughed.
Lu Chen was stunned, stupid, thinking to himself, good guy, if there is no smoke, he will say that there is no smoke, and he will borrow a fire, and he really wants to slap the other party to death.
Lu Chen shook his head, took out a piece of ten yuan and handed it to the other party.
The other party was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "Friend, you misunderstood, I'm not a beggar, I just want to smoke." ”
"I know, I don't have it on me, you go buy it. ”
Lu Chen stuffed the money to the other party, turned his head and smoked to himself.
The man paused, hesitated for a while, and finally ran to the convenience store to buy a pack, perhaps because he was addicted to smoking.
After coming back, the man in the suit took out one, lit the cigarette with a click, stuffed the lighter into his trouser pocket, and then handed the rest of the cigarette back to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen waved his hand to refuse the cigarette, but stretched out his hand towards the man and hooked his fingers.
The man was stunned by Lu Chen's actions, and asked blankly, "Friend, what's wrong?"
"Lighters, mine. ”
Lu Chen glanced at the other party and said with disgust.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”
The man in the suit hurriedly took out a lighter and handed it to Lu Chen, while apologizing non-stop.
Lu Chen looked at the other party nodding and bowing, and didn't bother to pay attention to the other party, seeing Shen Xuening coming from afar, he snuffed out the cigarette butt, beckoned the four eyes and turned around to get back to the car.
Who knew that the man suddenly grabbed Lu Chen's arm.
Lu Chen was taken aback by the other party's movements, and looked back at the other party suspiciously.
The man seemed to feel that this action was a bit rude, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything, I just want to ask you why you would rather give me money than give me cigarettes when you still have cigarettes?"
Lu Chen looked at the other party and said with a smile: "Because I'm afraid that you will faint or get sick after taking a sip, then I won't be more troublesome?"
When the other party heard this, he scratched his head and laughed.
At this time, Shen Xuening had already approached, her big eyes blinking, as if asking who this person was.
Lu Chen smiled and said nothing, took her little hand, didn't take care of the man anymore, and took a step to leave, but the other party grabbed him again.
"What's wrong again?"
Lu Chen looked displeased and asked impatiently.
"No... It's nothing, I just want to ask you if you buy insurance?"
The man in the suit nodded and said.
"Insurance?"
Lu Chen showed a suspicious expression: "What insurance? I'm a student, you've found the wrong sales target." ”
After speaking, Lu Chen shook off the other party's hand and was about to get into the car, but the man stopped Lu Chen again.
"Hey, what the hell do you want to do?"
Lu Chen was angry: "Do you think we are young and easy to bully?"
"Aang?"
The man showed a surprised expression and waved his hand again and again: "Brother, misunderstanding, pure misunderstanding, I took the liberty of asking because you had the breath of a superior person." ”
"Oh, the aura of the superior?"
Lu Chen suddenly became curious and asked, "How did you see that I had the aura of a superior on me?" ”
"Hehe, brother is polite, I've been doing sales for so many years, no one has seen it, so I'm calm and calm at you, and I'm not in a hurry when I encounter something, my brother is definitely not an ordinary person, at least he has some confidence. ”
The man licked his face and laughed.
As soon as he said this, Lu Chen was a little interested in men, at least with his eyes and eloquence, he was worthy of the sales industry.
"I'm sorry, big brother is wrong, we are a group of poor students, we went to report at the beginning of school, how can we have the money to buy insurance, you better find someone else." ”
Lu Chen shrugged his shoulders, left a sentence and took a step, took two steps and thought of something, turned his head to the man and said: "By the way, the air in the car is not good, I advise you not to smoke in the bathroom, at least don't let my girlfriend smoke second-hand." ”
The man was slightly embarrassed, looked at Lu Chen's distant back, shook his head, and said to himself: "Am I really wrong, shouldn't it, this kid is by no means simple." ”
The man closed his mouth when he saw that there was really no play, but when he got into the car, he didn't forget to stuff a business card into Lu Chen's pocket.
The bus continued to drive and arrived in Yunhai City, it was already past 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Lu Chen and Siyan were pulling their luggage, originally planning to take Shen Xuening to experience the subway in Yunhai City, but before they could say anything, they saw a man in a suit walking towards him with a trolley suitcase from a distance.
In a hurry, Lu Chen saw a taxi queuing up to pick up passengers in the distance, and the three of them got in as soon as they slipped into the smoke: "Brother driver, Yunhai University, thank you." ”
The taxi started slowly, and Lu Chen saw the man looking left and right through the rear window, and exhaled a long breath: "It's really ghostly, fortunately I ran fast." ”
Suddenly touching the hard object in his pocket, Lu Chen took it out and looked at it, and it was written "Lin Haidong, sales manager of Yunhai area." ”
"The salesman is the salesman, and the manager, not the commander of the light pole. ”
Lu Chen grinned, opened the car window, and originally wanted to throw away the business card, but then thought about it, maybe it would be useful in the future, and finally put it in his pocket.
Although the first meeting was not very pleasant, Lu Chen at this moment never expected that this person would become a fierce general under him in the future.
