Lin Yuming stayed in the office with Ma Xiaoxiao for an hour or two, and it took a lot of effort to stabilize Ma Xiaoxiao's mood, and it was not too early to see that the time was not early, Lin Yuming was hungry and 'cooing', which finally moved Ma Xiaoxiao.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for accompanying me and letting me vent for so long, I'll invite you to dinner!"

Lin Yuming smiled in his heart and let out a long sigh: "Okay, I'm going to kill you today!"

Originally, Lin Yuming was also psychologically heavy for this matter, but persuasion comforted Ma Xiaoxiao for so long, I don't know if Ma Xiaoxiao accepted his comfort in her heart, anyway, Lin Yuming himself felt a lot better, and those false words to persuade Ma Xiaoxiao relieved him.

"Mr. Lin, what do you want to eat?"

Lin Yuming smiled self-deprecatingly: "It seems that I still can't slaughter you, forget it, let's go eat mutton bubbles!"

"Ah, it's so greasy!"

"No, if you can't eat it, you can watch me eat it!"

"And, I think it's beautiful, I've cried all day, aren't I hungry!"

"Since you're hungry, then what's the matter with you, let's get out of the way!" Lin Yuming waved his hand and walked out.

This English is not like English, and Japanese is not like Japanese, which made Ma Xiaoxiao laugh, she grabbed Lin Yuming's arm and left the branch together.

The so-called mutton bubble in Anxi City, in fact, is mutton steamed bun, as an authentic Anxi person, do not like to eat steamed buns, do not know how to soak steamed buns, that is really a kind of sadness, the most particular thing in this is to break the desert, buy a good brand, take a large piece of solid pot helmet buns like the sole of your shoes, a little bit with your hands into small grains into a bowl into a bowl, you are not a connoisseur of steamed buns, from your way of breaking steamed buns can be seen.

Ordinary people don't have that patience, they break and break, and finally break into large pieces.

So, when you bring a bowl of steamed buns to the chef's window, he will look at you with disdain, and as a result, you must be given very little meat, because he knows how much to give and you don't understand.

Lin Yuming They came to this is very famous near the branch, there are many guests, Lin Yuming lined up and bought two copies, 25 yuan each, he took the bun, and when he came back with a bowl, Ma Xiaoxiao must give him fifty yuan, but Lin Yuming refused.

"Break the bun!"

"Oh, I'm most annoyed to do this, or Mr. Lin, you can help me break it!"

Lin Yuming smiled and said, "It's okay, but I haven't washed my hands, you don't care!"

In fact, Lin Yuming had just washed his hands, but when Ma Xiaoxiao heard this, he hurriedly pulled his bowl over and broke it angrily.

Sure enough, it was faster to break the bowl with raw hands, after holding on for a few minutes, Ma Xiaoxiao was able to pull the buns down one by one, and the buns in the whole bowl were different in size, she didn't care, she directly asked the waiter to take the bowl away, look at Lin Yuming, still a little bit, very patiently broken, Ma Xiaoxiao stood up, went to the counter and asked for a few side dishes, what sheep scalp, beef belly cut a few plates, and finally two small bottles of strong wine.

"You're going to drive in a while, what kind of alcohol are you drinking!"

"I can't fight, I'm in a bad mood today, drink some!"

"Then drink some!"

Lin Yuming clapped his hands and asked the waiter to take his bowl away and send it to the chef for processing, there were a lot of people, and the bowls sent over were lined up in a long line, and it was estimated that it would not be their turn to process it for half an hour, and they would definitely not be able to process it for them.

The two chatted back and forth, but as if they had a tacit understanding, they deliberately avoided the topic of the Highway Pipeline Bureau project, probably because they had said enough today, and they would never want to talk about it again, Ma Xiaoxiao also came out of depression and returned to the elegance and calm of the past.

Once she calmed down, there was naturally more tenderness in her eyes, she was grateful to Lin Yuming for today's company, she was grateful from the bottom of her heart, she also compared Lin Yuming with other men many times, and in the end Lin Yuming always won, but she regretted it very much, the casualness and indulgence in the past made her lose the possibility of this man, if she realized Lin Yuming's goodness earlier, why did she accompany Mr. Hu to climb the high branches, think about it, Ma Xiaoxiao herself feels a little worthless.

They have eaten this meal for a long time, and two lonely people will feel better in this bustling restaurant.

"Mr. Lin, do you like Anxi City very much?"

"Of course, this is my hometown, this is my roots!"

"If there were better prospects for development, would you have decided to leave here?"

Ma Xiaoxiao's usual question made Lin Yuming unable to answer for a while, because it brought back many memories of him, including some experiences and choices in his youth.

I'm afraid there are no more ifs in this world!

Lin Yuming said leisurely: "Maybe!"

"Why maybe?"

"I'm mature! I will say maybe, in the past, I will categorically refuse!"

Ma Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I don't think you Anxi City, you people in the province should be invited to have a very heavy nostalgia complex, unlike us southerners, where there is an opportunity, you will go!"

Lin Yuming himself admits Ma Xiaoxiao's opinion, but there is no way, one side of the water raises the other person, every place has the habits of each place, that kind of deep-rooted concept is difficult to change in a short period of time, if it wasn't for this reason, maybe his own fate and his life would be another trajectory.

Lin Yuming couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness, it was a distant youth and unforgettable memory.

"What's wrong, Mr. Lin, you seem to be very sad!"

Lin Yuming's eyes showed indeed a touch of alienation and loneliness, he was muttering about how to respond to Ma Xiaoxiao's question, the phone was thought about, he smiled apologetically at Ma Xiaoxiao, and took out his mobile phone, which was a completely unfamiliar landline phone, he hesitated for a moment, but still connected.

"Hello, I'm Lin Yuming, may I ask where you are!"

"Yuming, I'm Fengzhi, what are you busy with!"

"Crazy, you finally have time to call, hehe, I'm eating, what about you!"

"We just finished the party, and I didn't drink, but I'd love to drink some!" Kang Fengzhi said in a calm tone.

This made Lin Yuming frown, he felt that Kang Fengzhi had changed too much, he didn't have a little passion in the past, and he even spoke so rigidly, so emotionless.

Lin Yuming took a deep breath: "Okay, then let's drink!"

"Well, you come to pick me up at the Anxi State Guesthouse!

Lin Yuming hung up the phone and immediately said to Ma Xiaoxiao: "I'll go first, I'm going to drink with an old classmate at night, you should go back early, don't drive!"

"Then you can get my car on!"

Lin Yuming stood up, shook his head and said, "I don't dare to drive, this kid has a good amount of alcohol, it's hard to say if he can get out of the house today!"

"Then send me an address when you're almost drunk, and I'll pick you up when the time comes!"

Lin Yuming's thoughtfulness and carefulness to Ma Xiaoxiao was also very moved in his heart, and he pressed his hand on Ma Xiaoxiao's shoulder: "It depends on the situation." Gone!"

Lin Yuming took a taxi and went directly to the State Guesthouse.

From here to the State Guesthouse, he has to cross most of Anxi City, although the car is not too congested, but it is not much better, and it took him almost more than 30 minutes to get to the position.

In the few minutes that he waited for Kang Fengzhi to come down, Lin Yuming even wondered if there was any need for him to be more sensational, after all, he hadn't seen each other for a year or two, with his current plain appearance, would it make Kang Madman look cold, but thinking about Kang Madman's current stable appearance, Lin Yuming himself laughed, he really wanted to rush over and hug him, would it scare this kid out?

Well, it's better to go with the flow.

From afar, Lin Yuming saw Kang Fengzhi, although he couldn't see his face clearly, but his figure, his hurried stride with his head down was still the same as in the past, the only difference was that Kang Fengzhi walked with his hands in the past, but now there are a lot of rules.

The moment he saw Kang Maniac, Lin Yuming suddenly felt that his eyes were a little moist, he thought that he would be very indifferent, very calm, and very calm to face this old classmate, but the feeling thing is not easy to grasp at all in many cases, and he was so excited.

He opened the car door, looked at the approaching Kang madman, and beckoned: "Madman, I'm here!" His voice trembled a little.

He obviously felt that Kang Fengzhi's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his body trembled, raised his head, and looked over.

Lin Yuming saw that under the reflection of the street lamp, there were also some crystal things flashing in the eyes of the madman Kang.

The two of them looked at each other from a distance of five or six meters, the change of Kang Maniac was obviously greater than Lin Yuming imagined, he became old and steady, became soft and introverted, the kind of flying and domineering in the past, the arrogance and fierceness that relied on the identity of the second generation of officials have disappeared without a trace, from the outside, he seems to be a few years older than Lin Yuming, but in fact they are only a few months apart, Kang Maniac has very white skin, his shirt is also very white, and his shirt and navy blue trousers are crisp as if there is no wrinkle, Lin Yuming thought, this has not changed, he is still a very neat person。

In his left hand, he held a leather pouch, presumably a mobile wallet, and on the whole, he became low-key and mature.

"Yuming, you are still so young, I really envy you!"

"It's one of the best jokes I've ever heard!"

They slowly came together, and I don't know who made a hug first, and then, the two of them hugged each other all of a sudden, Lin Yuming could still feel that Kang Maniac's body was trembling, and Lin Yuming himself seemed to be trembling, it turned out that the long-standing relationship had never left their hearts, it was a memory of an era, a memory of a life, this life, this life, it is hard to forget......
