Chen Zongheng turned his head curiously.

I saw a thin man, staring at him in surprise.

"Monkeys?"

The monkey's real name is Hou Kun.

He was a classmate of Chen Zongheng High School.

Hou Kun is a typical poor student in the eyes of a very teacher, likes to fight, worships everywhere, and has a lot to do with those gangsters outside the school.

Originally, Hou Kun and Chen Zongheng, although they were classmates, should be people from two worlds, and the well water on both sides does not interfere with the river water.

But once, Hou Kun was blocked in the alley in front of the school, Chen Zongheng happened to pass, and he was rescued by a little trick, and since then, Hou Kun has recognized Chen Zongheng as the boss.

After going to college, because Chen Zongheng rarely returned to the long river, the contact between the two gradually faded, but he didn't expect to see each other again today.

"Boss!"

Hearing the familiar name, Hou Kun finally settled down.

His eyes were slightly red, and he almost rushed towards Chen Zongheng.

As he approached, he suddenly stopped.

He lowered his head and looked at his body in embarrassment, thick with oil.

This is in stark contrast to Chen Zongheng's glamorousness.

"What, don't you want to recognize me as the boss?"

Chen Zongheng grinned and hugged Hou Kun deeply in his arms.

Hou Kun hurriedly pushed Chen Zongheng away, lowered his eyelids and said with an embarrassed expression.

"Boss, I'm dirty, don't stain your clothes. ”

tone, humble to the dirt.

This made Chen Zongheng, and his brows furrowed slightly.

The excitement of reuniting old friends also fell silent slightly.

Seventeen or eighteen years old, Hou Kun is not very interested in learning.

However, the future is full of infinite possibilities.

It's like now, twilight, old-fashioned.

Where is it like twenty-seven or eighteen, a young man in the prime of life?

"If the clothes are dirty, they can be washed, but if the friends are gone, they can't be recovered. ”

Chen Zongheng shook his head and turned around to leave.

However, as soon as he took two steps, Hou Kun's trembling voice was heard.

"Boss, do you still recognize me as a little brother?"

Chen Zongheng turned around.

Seeing Hou Kun clenching his teeth, his body trembling, and his head bowed in despair.

In this way, he is like an embarrassed, lost dog.

"Look up. ”

Hou Kun's body shook and slowly raised his head.

But his eyes were still dodging, and he didn't dare to look at Chen Zongheng.

"Alas. ”

Chen Zongheng sighed slightly.

Life not only smooths out Hou Kun's edges and corners.

even polished him beyond recognition.

Hou Kun standing in front of him, and Hou Kun ten years ago.

It's like, only the name is the same.

Chen Zongheng took out a pen and wrote down his mobile phone number on a tissue.

"If you encounter any difficulties, call this number directly. ”

"As long as you still recognize me as the boss, you will always be my little brother. ”

Stuffing the tissue into Hou Kun's hand, Chen Zongheng resolutely turned around and left.

When he walked out of the community, Hou Kun chased after him.

"Boss, I don't know you...... Is there time ......"

Hou Kun rubbed his hands, his face was expectant and embarrassed.

But compared to before, at least a little bit more energetic.

“……”

Chen Zongheng didn't say a word, waiting for Hou Kun to follow.

After a long time, Hou Kun made up his mind and said softly.

"I opened a small restaurant, right next to here, why don't you ...... Two drinks?"

Hou Kun's words became smaller and smaller.

In the end, it's like a mosquito humming.

After all, Chen Zongheng is now a successful person.

Hou Kun recognized the clothes worn by Chen Zongheng, which were said to cost hundreds of thousands.

Is such a character really willing to drink with him?

"Let's go, lead the way. ”

Chen Zongheng grinned and gently patted Hou Kun on the shoulder.

Hou Kun's body shook slightly, and he hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way, and he was honored.

Hou Kun's life experience, Chen Zongheng also knows it very well.

His parents are ordinary workers and live a relatively frugal life.

After graduating from high school, I went to a vocational high school.

Although I can open a small shop, I am afraid that I will have to deal with firewood, rice, oil and salt all day long.

Looking at this state, life may not even be called poor.

The small shop opened by Hou Kun is in front of the Jinxiu Community, along the street.

It's almost noon, but business isn't good.

There are only a few people who eat noodles inside.

In front of the door, there sat an ordinary-looking woman wearing an apron.

He should be about the same age as Hou Kun, but he is tired.

It looks like even in his thirties.

"Rong Rong, this is what I told you, my boss Chen Zongheng. ”

Hou Kun was very enthusiastic and introduced Chen Zongheng.

When the woman heard this, she just stood up and nodded her head slightly.

It's like being absent-minded and losing your soul.

Seeing the woman's appearance, Hou Kun also sighed deeply.

"Boss, this is my wife Xu Rongrong, who got married six years ago - Rongrong, go fry a few side dishes, and I will have two drinks with my eldest brother. ”

Xu Rongrong agreed, looked at Chen Zongheng with a pale face, and tried to squeeze out a smile, "Mr. Chen, he didn't say anything about the monkey in advance, it's all some home-cooked food, just don't dislike it." ”

Chen Zongheng grinned and said, "How can I dislike the dishes made by my younger brother and sister." ”

Xu Rongrong smiled and nodded, and then went back to the back kitchen to get busy.

Hou Kun ran to the counter, put down the food in his hand, and hurriedly took out a chair, wiped it clean with his sleeve, and then motioned for Chen Zongheng to sit down.

"Boss, my small shop is not as good as those big hotels, I need you to do it. ”

"I'm fine. ”

Chen Zongheng chuckled, but he didn't dislike it, he casually pulled out a chair and sat down.

Seeing this, Hou Kun looked a little moved, and sat down opposite Chen Zongheng.

"Boss, I really didn't expect that I, Hou Kun, would see you one day. ”

"Look at what you said, it's like you're about to say goodbye to life and death. ”

Chen Zongheng chuckled and shook his head, skillfully picked up the warm pot, made a pot of tea, poured a cup for Hou Kun and pushed it over.

"After being married for so many years, you should have children, right?" asked Chen Zongheng.

Hou Kun grinned and stretched out two fingers.

"Don't hide it from the boss, two, a man and a woman. ”

"You kid, yes. Chen Zongheng was surprised.

But soon, Hou Kun's face darkened, he lit a cigarette in a muffled voice, and took a hard sip.

"The eldest is five years old, now in kindergarten, let his grandparents watch, the younger is only two years old, suffering from leukemia, and is now hospitalized......"

The smile on Chen Zongheng's face immediately froze.

Now, he finally understood why the faces of this couple were so ugly.

Leukemia, even if it can be cured in the end, the medical expenses cost are probably astronomical for Hou Kun's family, far beyond their ability to bear.

In the midst of the smoke, Hou Kun's eyes were red, and his voice became hoarse, "Not long ago, I just sold the house, and now the business of this store is not very good, I am discussing with Rong Rong, whether to also go out, it is important to treat the child first......"

The more Hou Kun spoke, the more his voice choked.

In the end, I just hugged my head and cried.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

The daughter's illness completely crushed the man after all.

Chen Zongheng was in a heavy mood, and just as he was about to open his mouth to persuade him, he heard a quarrel outside the house.
