Chapter 946: Alma Mater

As the old saying goes, after a person has achieved success, if he can't return to his hometown, it is like walking at night in brocade clothes.

In today's terms, a successful person may have been looked down upon, or despised or bullied in his hometown.

But when he succeeds in a foreign land, if he can't return to his hometown to show off his strength, slap those who despised or bullied him in the face, and pretend to be a coercion in front of his hometown fathers, then life will be meaningless.

Although this is not entirely applicable to Xu Ran, the Western Capital can only be regarded as his second hometown.

This kind of mentality, in fact, is present in everyone.

Xu Ran's four-year study career in the Western Capital, five years of part-time work, he has experienced a low point in his life here, and he has also experienced the most difficult period in his life, and he has also been bullied and despised by others, and he has been beaten and oppressed.

But at the same time, he also gained friendship here, happiness and beauty, and even got a love, but finally buried this love with his own hands.

Xu Ran has left countless memories here, some good and some bad, but they can all become an important part of his life experience.

Especially his alma mater, Western University of Science and Technology.

In the past, he studied and worked here, and he needed to get a lot of knowledge and nourishment from his alma mater to enrich himself.

And now that he can be regarded as successful, then after he returns here, in addition to returning to his hometown, because his mentality has changed, it is no longer a request for knowledge, but a return and feedback.

In fact, this is a 985 national double first-class university, and there are countless successful people who have gone out of this institution, and they do not need to provide any material feedback and feedback, but as long as the people who come out of this institution have success and have status and influence in the society, it is to give the best feedback to this alma mater, which is to enhance the reputation and status of the alma mater.

Last time, Xu Ran's delegation in the Western Capital, although he returned to his alma mater once, was very low-key that time, and he only quietly came to meet a few classmates and friends who were still in graduate school, and visited his teacher, which can be regarded as a night trip in brocade.

It's just that Xu Ran didn't think he had succeeded at that time, he felt that returning to his alma mater with a little fuss could not be regarded as a return to his hometown.

In the time that followed, although Xu Ran also came to the Western Capital a few times.

But he never returned to his alma mater, and he also came in a relatively low-key manner, because at that time he was still afraid of the Ye family, which had deep roots in the Western Capital.

Although he has never regarded Ye Wufeng, the defeated general of his subordinates, as a big enemy, and he has not paid much attention to it, this kind of ghost-like character is the most difficult, and he will come to block you from time to time and create a little trouble for you, which is really annoying.

However, these minor troubles are no longer troubles, they are a thing of the past.

When Xu Ran came to his alma mater in the Western Capital, his second hometown, he could be regarded as a real homecoming.

Whether it was Huaqing University last time or Xiacheng University in his hometown, he never brought Xu Ran any sense of attachment and belonging, he only felt that he was going for the knowledge and talents in those institutions of higher learning, as if he was a passerby.

And this time it's different.

This time is a real return to my alma mater, and that feeling is not something that other universities can replace, and I will be a little excited and a little apprehensive.

Perhaps this is a real sense of homesickness.

The alma mater did not hold any grand welcome ceremony for Xu Ran's arrival, nor did it organize teachers and students to do any grand pomp, it was very plain and ordinary, just a few representatives of teachers and students, holding a banner, standing at the school gate to greet them.

In fact, this is when the school contacted Xu Ran, Xu Ran specially explained not to engage in any welcome ceremonies and grand pomp, and to try to be low-key and plain so as not to alarm too many juniors and sisters.

After all, this is his alma mater, his status in Xu Ran's heart is different from other universities, Xu Ran doesn't want his alma mater to be too special and differentiated, he is a student who goes out here, and this will never change.

It's just that Xu Ran still underestimated how much influence he had on the younger students in this school.

After all, it has not been more than four or five years since he really walked out of this school, and his former classmates have only graduated from graduate school this year.

In addition, Xu Ran was a top-level figure in this school before, and many of the deeds left here are still fresh and will still be mentioned by many people, which will make those newly enrolled students closer and make them feel more real.

Therefore, when Xu Ran got off the bus at the school gate, before he had time to meet and talk with the teachers and students who had come to greet him, the news of his arrival began to spread wildly on campus.

Especially when the bell rings at the end of class.

It was like throwing a boulder on the calm water, and the whole campus was boiling.

Far away, you can hear the screams of some of the girls and the sound of running footsteps.

Among the greeting team this time, Xu Ran's old friends, old classmates Fu Yandong and Xu Ran are the most familiar ones, but they are also the most funny ones.

When he and Xu Ran bumped their fists and prepared to have a bear hug, after noticing the movement in the school, he couldn't help but be surprised: ", your fan group is very famous in the school, especially those little who are enrolled this year, if these people come, you just want to invite me to eat a hot pot It is estimated that it will be difficult, I think some of our procedures can still be saved, hurry up, let's go first, how about finishing the school leaders?"

Xu Ran was speechless for a while, how many years have it been, and this guy is still worried that Xu Ran didn't invite him to eat enough hot pot for a month.

But thinking about it, even Fu Yandong felt that the girls in the school would be crazy, and Xu Ran felt that with his few security guards and assistants, he was afraid that he would not be able to stop those enthusiastic students.

Therefore, Xu Ran also agreed to Fu Yandong's arrangement, he asked a few assistants to stay here to cover for him, and followed Fu Yandong to take a shortcut from their familiar path, and entered the school through the side door of the graduate school near the family area of a school teacher.

After entering the school, Xu Ran suddenly felt that familiar and intimate feeling quickly returned.

He was familiar with all the facilities and arrangements in this school, even if he came back after four or five years, there was not much change here, and Xu Ran felt that he could go anywhere he wanted with his eyes closed.

But the most important thing I want to go to is the experimental center.

There were his teachers, as well as classmates who stayed in school, and it was his brother Zhu Guodong, who used to sleep in his lower bunk.

But Fu Yandong would not take Xu Ran to the experimental center.

He led Xu Ran directly to a main building, where Xu Ran met several leaders of the school, as well as his teacher Yang Weiguo, and his brother Zhu Guodong, who was in the lower bunk.

Zhu Guodong saw that Xu Ran and Fu Yandong actually came in through the side door, but because the school leaders were there, he didn't run up to talk to Xu Ran.
