[005] party
On New Year's Day 2005, Liu Ruyan and Shang Yuemei were invited to come to the party venue all the time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The two walked to the door of the hall, Shang Yuemei pointed to the layout in front of the door and asked Liu Ruyan: "Designer Liu, please evaluate the design and layout of their venue, how many points can you score?"
Liu Ruyan looked around the venue, and the first thing that caught her eye was the couplet on the pillars on both sides:
Hundreds of boats compete for the current, and the flagship is the leader
Join hands to win and lead the market more calmly
Liu Ruyan couldn't help but smile and said: "It is very imposing, and it deserves to be one of the top flagship enterprises in the circulation field in Nanjiang City." Liu Ruyan took a step back and raised her hand to hold the couplet.
"Whoa".
Liu Ruyan felt a person on her back, a little painful, and some of these things felt like they had fallen off. When I turned my head to look, I saw a brochure on the ground, and a young man was squatting on the ground and was busy working. Liu Ruyan blushed, knowing that it was the moment she retreated, she bumped into him, and knocked over the pile of brochures in her hand.
There were people coming and going at the door, and the young man was squatting there, it was easy to be stepped on, after all, he was the one who stepped back and knocked down the booklet, Liu Ruyan felt that she couldn't go, so she squatted down to help pick up the booklet on the ground. Their hands reached for a booklet at the same time, and the two hands inadvertently touched each other.
Liu Ruyan retracted her hand with a red face and glanced at the other party, who was also looking at her at this time.
"It's you. ”
"It's you. ”
Both exclaimed at the same time. This person is none other than Lin Gang, a waiter who Liu Ruyan taught herself a lesson in a coffee shop and then met in a shopping mall.
Shang Yuemei heard the two exclaim each other, and she didn't know what the two were doing, so she also squatted down and helped pick up the booklet, and read it by the way.
"Shang Yuemei, is that you? remember me?" Lin Gang's eyes moved to Shang Yuemei, and this time he asked in surprise.
"Lin Gang, it's you! Why don't you remember, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and the older you get, the more handsome you get, you work in this company?" Shang Yuemei was also pleasantly surprised, for so many years, she really hadn't met a junior high school classmate in the provincial capital, and she was still a childhood friend, of course she was excited. Seeing her old classmate this time, Shang Yuemei was naturally very happy, raised her pink fist, punched Lin Gang, and then turned around and introduced to Liu Ruyan: "Sister, let me introduce, this is my junior high school classmate, called Lin Gang, among our classmates, he is the most handsome young man in our hometown." ”
"We're really connected, Mr. Waitress. Liu Ruyan blushed, looked at Lin Gang and said. I thought about how there was such a coincidence in the world, this was my best friend's classmate, and the world was too small.
"What's fate?" Shang Yuemei didn't understand what Liu Ruyan meant.
"Of course there is fate, it's not this little beauty who accidentally knocked down the booklet in my hand, and it won't attract your attention, and we won't recognize each other. Without waiting for Liu Ruyan to say about the collision in the coffee house, Lin Gang hurriedly explained, as if he wanted to cover up the coffee house.
Seeing that Lin Gang explained very satisfactorily, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but glance at him again, thinking to herself why he wanted to hide his experience as a waiter, is there anything unspeakable?
Taking advantage of Shang Yuemei's bathroom break, Lin Gang took out a few banknotes from his pocket and handed them to Liu Ruyan: "This is your money, I will return it to you without touching it." There was a taste of inferiority in his words, and there was a tone of disdain, but Yang Zhenggang didn't read much and was not good at expressing clearly, so he could only be two hard sentences.
Liu Ruyan's heart moved, she looked around with a red face, and when she saw that Shang Yuemei didn't come back, she glared at him, and her hand didn't go to pick up the money handed over by Lin Gang.
Seeing Liu Ruyan glaring at him, neither accepting money nor making a sound, Lin Gang was a little embarrassed, so he said with a straight face: "Although I, Lin Gang, am poor and have some low self-esteem, I never accept the food that comes from me, please take it back." He was still a little worried about Liu Ruyan's attitude that day.
Hey, there's still a backbone, don't eat it, that's a good point. Liu Ruyan thought to herself, in this era of laughing at poverty and not prostitution, it is rare to have such an antique temperament.
Seeing that he looked serious in embarrassment, Liu Ruyan glanced at him, tilted her head slightly, pursed her lips, and then said a little angrily: "This girl really has a bad habit, there is no reason to take back the things she gives away, otherwise, you can give that beauty casually, I don't object." ”
Lin Gang was choked by Liu Ruyan, and he was really speechless for a while, so he had to retract the hand holding the money. Looking at Lin Gang, who had a very uncomfortable expression, Liu Ruyan remembered the question she had in the coffee shop at the time, how could he be a waiter who did not belong to his age?
"How did you get to ....." Liu Ruyan wanted to ask Lin Gang why he worked in a coffee shop. But Shang Yuemei returned to them, Liu Ruyan immediately stopped and didn't ask, since Lin Gang didn't want Shang Yuemei to know about the coffee house, she also had to respect the other party.
At this time, elegant dance music echoed in the hall, and the guests all danced. See you again more than ten years later, Shang Yuemei was really excited, the dance music began, Shang Yuemei invited Lin Gang to dance with her, but Lin Gang blushed, his head shook like a rattle, and his hands were desperately swinging: "Please, old classmate, I can't dance, you can play to your heart's content, I will do a good job of logistics for you." ”
"Yo, I can't see it, you're still a model husband, your wife is so happy!" Shang Yuemei said jokingly.
"Madam, I don't know if my mother-in-law gave birth to me?" Although Lin Gang was not restrained in front of his classmates, he was still very embarrassed to be alone, so he had to laugh at himself helplessly, and after speaking, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Liu Ruyan.
Hearing this, Liu Ruyan's heart suddenly became a little confused, and she glanced at Lin Gang from the corner of her eye. Lin Gang also glanced at Liu Ruyan from the corner of his eye, the two collided with each other, and then moved away in an instant, and Liu Ruyan's heartbeat accelerated.
Shang Yuemei saw that Lin Gang couldn't dance, so she pulled Liu Ruyan to jump.
Liu Ruyan was led into the dance field by Shang Yuemei, dancing mechanically with her, but thinking about Lin Ganggang's words in her heart. She thought, since he was Shang Yuemei's classmate, he should also be in his thirties, and the handsome young man who had recently stood up had not yet started a family, it was really strange, was it divorced, was it widowed, or was there some other reason?
"Rourou, what are you thinking? Shang Yuemei saw that Liu Ruyan's dance steps were messy, and found that she was absent-minded, so she asked jokingly.
"Why? Liu Ruyan was reminded by Shang Yuemei, came back to her senses, and smiled embarrassedly. Thinking that her mind was full of him, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but feel funny, how could she think of something so boring, and it was the same as the last time she was in the coffee shop? This fashion Yuemei asked about Lin Gang's current situation: "Lin Gang, why are you still living alone now?" I remember that your mother has always been in poor health, how is it now?"
"It's basically good now, it's just a matter of consolidating it in the future, the reason why I haven't gotten married for so many years is because all the money I earn is used for my mother's treatment, during this period, there is at least one platoon of friends to talk about, and finally after learning about the situation in my family, they are all scared away, and I am disheartened. Lin Gang said with a wry smile.
Liu Ruyan trembled again, glanced at Lin Gang again, the question just now was solved, it turned out that this was the case, it seems that the reason why Lin Gang went to the coffee house to do a short-term job has also been found, forced by the helplessness of life, he wants to find all the opportunities to make money, and the position of waiter is not suitable for people of his age, so he blindly hides it from Shang Yuemei.
This glance, this thought, seemed inadvertent, but it opened Liu Ruyan's heart.
Towards the end of the party, Shang Yuemei proposed to Liu Ruyan: "Beautiful talented girl, can you write a poem for Datang Qingming Wine as a commemoration?" Liu Ruyan thought about it, glanced at Lin Gang out of the corner of her eye, and with a hint of shyness, she lifted the brush and splashed ink with a song "Song of the Cave Immortals":
During the Qingming season, not to mention the busy worship of ancestors.
Thousands of households in the lotus pond smell the fragrance of wine.
Qichen Jiao, thank you for the hospitality of the farmer.
Kind Weng, wine to King Teng.
Hidden Wu Chu for thousands of years, legends continue.
In the past, the noble and wealthy Jia Zang has changed with the times and entered the ordinary.
So far, hand in hand with you, the sword out of the sheath to determine the world.
Message Qingming wine, brilliant from now on.
As soon as this word came out, there was applause. "Sure enough, she is a talented woman, and her shot is extraordinary," Shang Yuemei exclaimed.
Although Lin Gang couldn't understand the meaning of this poem, judging from the warm applause, it must be a good work, so he was also amazed by Liu Ruyan's talent. This young man who has not yet had time to graduate from junior high school, although he dropped out of school due to family changes, has never stopped his thirst for cultural knowledge, and admires and admires those knowledgeable cultural people very much. At the end of the party, Lin Gang and they left each other's mobile phone numbers.
