Cafe, the private seat by the window, Chen Xing looked at Zhang Ying and Huang Yan with a smile, these two people really gave him too much surprise, compared with the college days, it was a big change, the two asked him to come out to sit in the evening, Chen Xing also agreed, to the old classmates, Chen Xing is still very face-saving.

"Why didn't you two see you at the banquet last night?" Chen Xing looked at the two of them and said with a smile, it stands to reason that Cao Wenqing, the head of the department, knew that Zhang Ying and Huang Yan were both his classmates, and he should arrange for the two of them to attend last night's dinner together, but he remembered that he didn't see the two of them last night, otherwise he wouldn't be so surprised today.

"We both don't like those socializing or something, so we didn't go, it's better to stay in the dormitory and be comfortable, anyway, if you come to school today, you can always see it." Zhang Ying said with a smile, she was taciturn in college, but now she has become quite talkative, and Huang Yan, who used to mingle with boys and was very arrogant, seems to have become a little more ladylike.

Chen Xing looked at the faint intellectual beauty revealed by Zhang Ying's words and demeanor, and he was really emotional, the changes in this person are really infinite, and said with a smile, "I didn't see you two at the class reunion organized by Fei Ren a few years ago, the venue of the party was in Haicheng, and I didn't see you two to see other old classmates." ”

"Fei Ren organized, don't go." Zhang Ying raised her eyebrows, obviously disgusted with Fei Ren, but the look in her eyes was not completely so, it was just that Chen Xing didn't pay attention.

Chen Xing couldn't help but smile when he heard this, this Fei Ren's popularity among his classmates is not ordinarily bad, although some people are deliberately catering to him, but more people are shameless, but think about those things when they were students, now that everyone has grown up, there is no need to worry about the past.

His eyes fell back on Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, and Chen Xing smiled, "You two are also married, right?" ”

Chen Xing didn't ask this, but as soon as he asked, the atmosphere became a little weird, at first Chen Xing didn't notice it, until he saw that Zhang Ying and Huang Yan were unusually silent, their hands were tightly clasped together, Chen Xing's eyes changed slightly, and his eyes stared at the two of them, only feeling a little weird.

"We're not married yet." Zhang Ying shook her head and smiled, "Director Chen, you should have a harmonious family and be happy." ”

"It's fine." Chen Xing nodded, thinking of Zhao Qing, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

"My wife is Zhao Qing?" Zhang Ying showed a little curiosity.

"No, she and I broke up early." Chen Xing smiled faintly, the old classmates in the past really like to guess on him and Zhao Qing, in fact, it is no wonder, he and Zhao Qing were indeed very tight in college, a vigorous love from the freshman year to the senior, when they just graduated, the two did not break up, plus both of them are from the province, and other classmates who have not been in contact with each other will naturally feel that it is not strange that they finally came together.

"I'm sorry, it seems that it's not a good thing to be too curious, I hope it didn't bring up Director Chen's unpleasant past." Zhang Ying was stunned for a moment, and then nodded apologetically at Chen Xing.

"It's okay, they're all classmates, it's normal to ask casually about this kind of thing." Chen Xing smiled indifferently.

There was a brief silence in the atmosphere, Zhang Ying and Huang Yan quietly glanced at each other again, the eyes of the two had an unknown exchange, and there seemed to be a trace of firmness in each other's eyes, and finally Zhang Ying seemed to have the courage to say, "Director Chen, let's tell you the truth, Huang Yan and I asked you out, I really want to ask you for something." ”

"You still call me Chen Xing, old classmate, there's no need for Director Chen to be long and Director Chen short, then it will be divided." Chen Xing glanced at the two of them in surprise, feeling a little helpless, between classmates, in fact, it is also very realistic, there was no contact before, the first time they met today, the two of them will look for him because they have something to ask him, if it is okay, I am afraid that the two will not ask him out, just like the two did not appear at the banquet last night, looking at the appearance of the two, although they have changed greatly, they seem to have become dislike to deal with people.

"Let's call you Director Chen, otherwise I'm worried that I will be disrespectful to Director Chen." Zhang Ying said half-jokingly, her eyes blazing, "Director Chen, recently the school plans to organize a group of young backbone teachers to study abroad, and our Department of Finance also has three places, Huang Yan and I would like to ask Director Chen for your help to say hello to the school leaders, can you give me and Huang Yan a place." ”

Chen Xing looked at Zhang Ying with a slight stunnedness, this is really unkind to himself, he made this kind of request when he first met, Chen Xing frowned slightly, if there was a little surprise of meeting old classmates at the beginning, this would have disappeared more than a little bit, Chen Xing was quite disgusted in his heart.

"Director Chen, Huang Yan and I may have taken the liberty of making this request, but the two of us have no choice but to do so." Zhang Ying saw that Chen Xing was silent, plus she had been carefully observing Chen Xing just now, the subtle expression change on Chen Xing's face did not escape her eyes, Zhang Ying didn't know that Chen Xing was not very happy, but she and Huang Yan had to insist, the two of them didn't imagine how Chen Xing would react at the beginning, and the current situation is not too unexpected, after all, their relationship with Chen Xing in college was also average, not a particularly good relationship.

"Oh?" Chen Xing looked at the two of them quietly, his eyes swept over the hands of the two of them on the table, Chen Xing always felt that something was wrong, and he didn't think about anything else, Chen Xing picked up the coffee, took a sip gently, and listened to what the two of them said.

Seeing Chen Xing's gaze, Zhang Ying and Huang Yan looked at each other and smiled, their faces bloomed with happy smiles, and their fingers interlocked in front of Chen Xing raised, "Director Chen, Huang Yan and I are lovers." ”

'Poof', Chen Xing, who was drinking coffee, almost sprayed on Zhang Ying and Huang Yan opposite, fortunately covered it with his hand in time, Chen Xing was embarrassed and quickly took a tissue from the table to wipe it clean, and smiled unnaturally at Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, but he was so surprised in his heart that the word homosexuality appeared in his mind at the first moment, which would think about the appearance of the two of them a little weird before, Chen Xing was finally relieved, the unusual intimacy of the two was not because of a good relationship, but because the two were lovers。

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I accidentally choked." Chen Xing tried his best to be natural, and kept telling himself not to look at the two of them with strange eyes, Chen Xing has not really come into contact with homosexual people, but according to his own understanding, this kind of person will be more sensitive psychologically, Chen Xing doesn't know if his startled behavior just now will cause any harm to the two, this can only pretend to be indifferent.

In fact, Chen Xing has never discriminated against this kind of homosexuality in his heart, and he has seen relevant reports in the past, and Chen Xing still thinks that those who shout homosexuality are immoral... The so-called guardians of homosexual love who should be banned are all people who are unruly in the past, and they are free to fall in love with each other, even if it is between men and women, and they are about those so-called customs and.

However, although the thoughts in his heart are so, Chen Xing has never really met a homosexual person, especially such a person appeared next to him, who was a former classmate, and suddenly heard that Zhang Ying and Huang Yan were frank about the relationship between each other, and it was not surprising that Chen Xing would have that kind of expression all of a sudden.

"Director Chen is very surprised, huh, I don't blame Director Chen for having that reaction, we also know that our relationship is not acceptable to the vast majority of people, I think Director Chen, you are also looking at us with strange eyes now, but we can understand." Zhang Ying laughed self-deprecatingly.

"No, I never think that you are any different from normal men and women in love, everyone has their own freedom of choice, others have no right to interfere, and they are not qualified to discriminate against others, on the contrary, I admire your courage." Chen Xing said sincerely, he knew that his actions just now had somewhat misunderstood the two.

"Director Chen, do you really think so?" Huang Yan's eyes, who had not spoken, lit up, and he looked at Chen Xing's gaze for the first time with a little more kindness.

"Of course I really think so, but it's not against my will, don't you think I'm also an antique?" Chen Xing glanced at each other with a smile, at this moment, Chen Xing finally understood why the two of them went to graduate school together after college, and worked hard to stay in school to teach, thinking that it was also the firm feelings of the two of them.

Thinking of Zhang Ying's request just now, Chen Xing vaguely thought of something, and looked at Zhang Ying thoughtfully, "Zhang Ying, you just said that you want to fight for a place to study abroad with Huang Yan, wouldn't it be you two who thought?" ”

"We want to go abroad, and when we go out, we don't want to come back." Zhang Ying looked at Chen Xing, her eyes were persistent, and she and Huang Yan's ten-fingered hands were clenched tighter and tighter.

"It's really ......" Zhang Ying's words confirmed his guess, Chen Xing finally understood the two of them a little in his heart, just now because Zhang Ying made a request as soon as they met The unhappiness disappeared, the two of them made a request after all, but thinking about it again, Chen Xing couldn't help but smile bitterly, Zhang Ying only hoped that he would help, but he didn't think that he would help say hello, but in the end the two went out and disappeared, Haida was afraid that he was going to jump his feet, but both of them were recommended by him, although the school did not dare to find him, But he has more or less to do it.

After a slight silence, Chen Xing looked up at the two of them, "In fact, with the knowledge and ability of the two of you, it shouldn't be difficult to go abroad, how can you focus on the school's quota for studying abroad?" ”

Chen Xing's question was undoubtedly to the point, Zhang Ying and Huang Yan looked at each other, and finally Zhang Ying spoke, "If you want to go abroad, it's not difficult to say, but it's not so easy to say, if you have money, we will choose to immigrate directly, but we don't have so much wealth, the two of us have enough savings now, going abroad is enough, but we can't be impoverished because of going abroad."

In addition, we have never lived abroad, and we are both a little worried about the adaptation of going out, and it is not so easy to get a green card, there must be a buffer time in the middle, during this time, life has become a problem, and we are also facing many problems such as finding a job, otherwise we will not be able to support ourselves abroad in the future, so we did not rush out. ”

"In addition, because of the fetters of our families, we didn't fully make up our minds before, and we really decided to go out recently, just in time for the school to organize teachers to study abroad, so we wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, and this time the school's study abroad time is one year, so that we can have enough time to adapt to life abroad, I think one year is enough for us to be fully prepared, and find a job abroad that can support ourselves." Zhang Ying said quietly, making up her mind to go out, it was a difficult decision for both her and Huang Yan, both of them have parents and siblings, and they will rarely come back when they go out.

Chen Xing listened, and then looked at the two, if he said that the two of them had the courage to just comfort the two, this will, Chen Xing really admires the two, in order not to be recognized by the world, the two women dare to choose to go away and fly high, to the place where they are not familiar with life, and the cultural differences are huge to start over, what kind of courage is this, compared to the fact that many men and women choose to combine for the sake of money and material, compared to the innocent homosexual love of others, those who are boasted to conform to the laws of nature and conform to the way of heaven, In terms of sexuality, it is said that the so-called union of men and women can have the effect of harmonizing yin and yang, and I don't know how much worse it is.

There is nothing wrong with sympathizing with love, you should not be discriminated against, everyone should know how to respect others, even if you don't approve of this homosexuality, you shouldn't discriminate against it! Chen Xing actually doesn't understand the spiritual world of homosexuals in his heart, and the thought of letting him be with a man will give him goosebumps all over his body, but this is just a normal reaction from the outside, Chen Xing still recognizes and respects homosexuals ideologically, this is the right of others to choose freely, just like the rights of legal citizens, sacrosanct, and no one is qualified to blame.

"As soon as you leave like this, aren't you afraid that your family will worry about you? I think you all have parents and siblings, right? Chen Xing looked at the two, and judging from the solemn expressions of the two, it could also be seen how difficult it was for the two to make this decision.

"If it weren't for the fetters of our families, we would have made up our minds to go out a long time ago, and we wouldn't have waited until now." Huang Yan smiled bitterly, "Until now, Yingying's family and I don't know that we are homosexuals, when we were in graduate school, we refused to go on a blind date on the grounds that we were still students, we just graduated from graduate school, we said that we should concentrate on work first, and we didn't consider marriage for the time being, and we were confused in the past, as we grew up day by day, our parents urged us more and more, we are all 30 years old, in the eyes of our parents, we are older young women, we are not married at this age, our parents are in a hurry, and the urging is getting tighter and tighter, This also made Yingying and I realize that it is no longer possible to stay in China, we can't keep this relationship a secret, and if we say it, our family may not be able to accept it, and it is also these reasons that prompt us to make this determination. ”

"Director Chen, if you don't help with this, we won't say anything, we will still rely on our own efforts to get out." After Huang Yan finished speaking, Zhang Ying looked at Chen Xing with burning eyes.

"Have you ever thought that I recommend you two to go out, and when the time comes, you both stay abroad and don't come back, then Haida will inevitably blame me." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled, after all, Chen Xing actually didn't intend to refuse in his heart, seeing that the faces of the two girls changed slightly, Chen Xing smiled again, "But everyone, classmates, you are looking for me for help, and you are honest, I don't want to sit idly by, otherwise I won't be happy in my heart." ”

Chen Xing's words made the two goddesses, who had already plummeted, feel uplifted, and looked at Chen Xing gratefully, "Director Chen, so you are willing to help?" ”

"If I don't help, shouldn't you turn around and scold me in my heart for being unrighteous as an old classmate?" Chen Xing was joking, and the two happy faces in front of him moved Chen Xing, and Chen Xing saw the persistence and persistence of the two.

"If Director Chen doesn't help, we really won't blame you, seriously, over the years, because of our relationship, we are not very willing to contact our former classmates, we don't want others to know about our relationship, and we don't want our lives to be disturbed, in addition to daily work, we spend most of our time in the dormitory, living our own two-person world, this kind of life, has made us happy enough, I haven't contacted Director Chen for a few years, the first time we met, we made this kind of excessive request, we also know that it is too much, So if you don't help, Director Chen, we won't dare to blame you. Zhang Ying was slightly incoherent.

One night, Chen Xing didn't know how long he had been chatting with Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, and what they had talked about, Chen Xing's mood was very strange, moved, admired, and a little incomprehensible, Chen Xing didn't know what impact he had on the future life of the two of them if he responded to the request of the two, whether the future of the two would be really happy again, in a relatively open foreign country, the two might be able to get the life they wanted, and they didn't have to face so many strange eyes, but he knew that if he didn't help with this, There will be some reluctance in my heart.

Chen Xing would never have imagined that today's move will create two internationally renowned economists in the future, Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, who are known as beautiful scholars, have become distinguished professors at Harvard University, and the two are even more famous on Wall Street, and because of their maverick personalities and the homosexual love that they dare to declare to the outside world, it has caused a certain amount of controversy, but it is undeniable that Chen Xing's later achievements surprised Chen Xing, which also made Chen Xing once interested in the spiritual world of homosexuals. I wonder if such a person, once they become focused and serious, will be more likely to succeed than ordinary people.

In order to fulfill the promise to Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, Chen Xing also specially asked Cao Wenqing, director of the Department of Finance of Haida to come out for a talk, during which he inevitably hinted cheekily that Haida had recently organized young backbone teachers to study abroad, Chen Xing mentioned the names of Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, and then did not say anything more, and he did not have to tell Cao Wenqing too directly that the three places in the Department of Finance should be given to Zhang Ying and Huang Yan. Speaking of going abroad for further study, and mentioning the names of the two again, I believe Cao Wenqing is enough to understand what he means.

"Chen Xing, next time we are going to the capital to see you, do you say okay?" He Li exhaled like an orchid and said in Chen Xing's ear, mixed with the moist breath of light fragrance that made Chen Xing's ears itch for a while, and there was an indescribable comfort, and a pair of hands gently rubbed on He Li's slender waist.

He Li Xing may be joking, but it also attracted Chu Rong on the side to look sideways, looking at Chen Xing with a smile, both of them knew that Chen Xing's wife was in the capital, and the two of them were also well aware of the shady relationship between each other, and they usually tried their best to avoid any chance to meet Zhang Ningning, so as not to show any horses, but He Li took the initiative to talk about this, and somewhat wanted Chen Xing to show embarrassment.

"Why are you going to the capital if you have nothing to do?" Chen Xing smiled helplessly, he really didn't want the two of them to go to the capital, it would be ridiculous in Haicheng, if he still went to the capital, let his brother-in-law Zhang Ming know, I'm afraid it would be time to point at his nose and scold, Zhang Ming knew all these ridiculous things in Haicheng.

"Hmph, whatever you say, look at what you're afraid of, I think, you must be a person who is afraid of his wife." He Li's mouth was slightly upturned, with a narrow smile in her eyes, she didn't really plan to go to the capital.

"It has nothing to do with being afraid of my wife." Chen Xing rolled his eyes, but he didn't have anything more to argue.

"Aren't you afraid that Sister Chu and I are both at the age of strong physiological needs, you can only meet us once in the past few months, and sometimes it is estimated that it will take longer, if you don't go back to Haicheng on business this time, I'm afraid it will be more than a few months, right? You're not afraid of us messing around outside, giggles, we both have a bad reputation outside. He Li squinted and smiled.

"You damn girl, who is in demand like you, if you want to say it, just talk about yourself, don't count me in." Chu Rong's face turned red, when she said this, she herself was weak, to say that the physiological needs in this area are not strong, it is purely a lie.

"Ah, Sister Chu, who is the one who screams the loudest when you do that thing." He Li turned her head to look at Chu Rong, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, and the two of them started to fight at once, Chen Xing looked at it from the side, three women in one play, and two women were not much different, if this trouble continued, maybe it would be on the bed again.

"Chen Xing, you haven't said if we can go to the capital, okay or not, you can just give a word." After He Li and Chu Rong finished arguing, the muzzle of the gun turned to Chen Xing again.

"The legs are long on you, you want to go to the capital to play, I can still stop you." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled, sometimes he really can't do anything with He Li, but maybe it is the other party's character that makes him addicted.

"I don't think I'm a little insincere when I hear it, Sister Chu, I think it's better for the two of us to go to the capital to play quietly in the future, and don't tell someone, so as not to make someone unhappy, but then again, neither of us has traveled to the capital yet, so we should really take time to go this year." He Li glanced at Chen Xing and said with a smile.

"If you really want to go, you can tell me, and if you have time, I will definitely receive you." Chen Xing smiled bitterly, this will always be impossible to pretend that he didn't hear anything, that really makes the two of them feel that he has no conscience at all, but Chen Xing obviously wouldn't think that he would not stay in the capital for a long time, next year's change of office has made the capital the center of the political whirlpool, although his level is still far from the center of the whirlpool, but because of the relationship with the Zhang family, some things are difficult to say, because the Zhang family is also involved, Zhang Guohua, who is the father-in-law, wants Chen Xingxian to stay away from this place of right and wrong, Chen Xing didn't know that his time in the capital could already enter the countdown.

"That's what you said, don't even dare to answer the phone when the time comes." He Li jokingly said that she didn't really plan to go to the capital, but Chen Xing's answer still made her feel very happy.

Chen Xing and He Li were talking, and inadvertently thought of Zhang Ying and Huang Yan, and turned his head to look at He Li, "He Li, have you been in contact with Zhang Ying and Huang Yan over the years?" ”

"No contact, what?" He Li looked at Chen Xing strangely, "The two of them seem to have disappeared, and there is no news of them, but I heard that they have both stayed in school to teach." ”

"Oh, it's fine." Chen Xing shook his head, he wanted to talk to He Li about the two of them as a gossip, several of them were classmates, it was not appropriate to think about it, Zhang Ying and Huang Yan were reluctant to contact their classmates, probably because they didn't want people to know, he should also respect the two, there was no need to be a big mouth.

"Zhang Ying was silent when she was in college, she rarely communicated with people, and after graduation, there was no news, I had no contact with her, Huang Yan had contact once, but she didn't seem to be very willing to deal with it, and she became quite arrogant, so I didn't bother to talk about it." He Li said with a smile.

"They should be busy with work, and they shouldn't be arrogant." Chen Xing explained for the two.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." He Li smiled and waved her hand, her eyes wandering away from Chen Xing, "You are leaving, what do you say you should do today?" Is it time to drain you out and let you go? ”

Looking at He Li's gradually burning eyes, Chen Xing was really familiar, He Li was emotional.
