Chapter Seventy-Five: Perseverance in the Face of Adversity

(This chapter should be written for yourself, self-motivated, thank you to all readers for accompanying me so far, I will continue to persevere)

Arrange everything, Liu Siyuan went to pick up Chen Jun from work in a relaxed mood, he didn't dare to go directly into the city government building, many people still remember him, once he saw him and Chen Jun go out together, it would definitely reach Ouyang Qian's ears, and it was even possible that she herself was in the city government office today, it would be bad if she happened to bump into him, he knew that the last thing Ouyang Qian wanted to see was Chen Jun.

For Ouyang Qian, he has very complicated feelings, saying that he doesn't care that it's nonsense, these days, he has a skin-to-skin kiss, and it is impossible to have no concern for her.

But Fang Xinyi's status in his heart is obviously higher, he originally planned to make it clear to Ouyang Qian yesterday, but he made a mistake, blaming himself for not exercising restraint, the small head controlled the big head, and thought with the lower body, but not only did he not make it clear, but the relationship between the two became even more entangled.

Relatively speaking, for him, it is actually the most comfortable and calm to be with Chen Jun, the latter's concept of love I don't know if it is influenced by her favorite Zhang Ailing, a 'made' woman, anyway, it's not normal, and I don't know if it's like this for literary and artistic young people, in short, Liu Siyuan thinks it's very interesting and difficult to understand.

He waited in a café near the city government, and the location was also chosen by her, which was also a typical choice of literary and artistic youth, in fact, Liu Siyuan still didn't drink the taste of coffee, it was bitter, it was not delicious at all, let alone let him distinguish between various coffees, and Chen Jun was particularly good at this, she could name one or two of each coffee bean.

Chen Jun didn't let him wait too long before she appeared, she was wearing a professional outfit today, she looked a little mature, speaking of which, she was already two years older than Liu Siyuan, and she was originally the oldest of his women. Ouyang Qian is less than a year older than him, and Fang Xinyi is two years younger than him.

"Haven't eaten yet?" She asked faintly after sitting down.

Liu Siyuan shrugged and said, "Of course, waiting for you to eat together, what good places can you recommend?" I'm going into the city now, and I don't know anything. ”

Chen Junwan smiled and said, "Okay, since it's rare for you to go back to the city, I'll treat you today, come with me." ”

She chose a newly opened Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, the decoration is very modern, but also quite emotional, the food is not expensive, it looks very exquisite, the taste is acceptable, there are many young people around, especially small couples, the only drawback is that the environment is a little noisy. But the two don't mind, in fact, the two get along, as long as they only see each other in their eyes, the surrounding noise is also floating clouds.

"Recently, many classmates have gotten married, and a month's salary has basically been handed over to those red bombs, so I can't afford to ask for it, Secretary Liu forgive me." Chen Jun said with a slightly playful look, it seems that she is in a good mood.

Liu Siyuan was also amused by her, and said, "I really don't have any money, so I can only pretend to be sick and go." ”

Chen Jun said with a helpless expression: "Now the market is that people can't go, and the red envelope must be obtained." ”

Liu Siyuan was speechless for a while, saying that he seemed to be a little estranged from his old classmates after graduation, especially when he went to Beixi Town, most of his old classmates even lost contact.

Suddenly, he understood a little, Chen Jun mentioned that these were also targeted, speaking of which she was also more than twenty-five years old, and her classmates, especially female classmates, had started families one after another, and it seemed that she was a little stressed.

"Speaking of which, I seem to have a little less contact with my old classmates, so I'm ashamed." Liu Siyuan said with emotion.

Chen Jun smiled: "That's because you're too busy, it's definitely hard to run a small town." But recently I checked the situation in Nord Stream Town, although I haven't been there, but look at those pictures can also know that it is a beautiful place, I especially like those colorful brick paved roads, you live there every day, very romantic. ”

Liu Siyuan said with a smile: "Nord Stream is indeed very beautiful, welcome Comrade Chen Jun to travel." I see it every day, but one thing I like is that I live at the foot of the mountain, and the air is much better than in the provincial town. ”

The two chatted like old friends, time flew by, and after eating, Liu Siyuan sent her all the way to the door.

"Do you want to go up and sit down?" Chen Jun's invitation was a little sudden, Liu Siyuan didn't know if she was polite or sincere for a while, he had been to her home once, and that time she let him enjoy some kind of service for the only time in his life.

Seeing him hesitate, Chen Jun probably guessed what was going on, and she said softly: "Or you can stay with me today, it's more comfortable than staying in a hotel." ”

Seeing that her sincerity was not polite enough, Liu Siyuan naturally had no reason to refuse, so he followed her upstairs.

Chen Jun seems to love cleanliness very much, and the first thing he did after entering the house was to let him take a shower first, and Liu Siyuan was about to go in and wash when he was surprised to find that she actually prepared a new set of pajamas and pants for him.

"Didn't you stay with me last night? I saw that you didn't have pajamas and pants, so I bought a set according to your size. She explained lightly.

Liu Siyuan first sighed at her delicate thoughts, and then was surprised to realize that it seemed that she had already prepared for him to stay overnight again.

Liu Siyuan was refreshed after taking a bath, and when she went to take a bath, he looked casually in her room, among which an open collection of Zhang Ailing's anthologies on the desk attracted his attention, and he rarely read this kind of book that literary and artistic young people liked before. He found that one of the sentences was drawn out by Chen Jun with a red pen:

'Guarding a heart, don't guard a cat. It's cold, come and snuggle up to you; It is hungry and comes to call you; It's itching, come and rub you; When it got tired of it, it sneaked away. Guarding a heart, how I wish it was like guarding a dog, not you guarding it, but it guarding you'

Liu Siyuan does not have pets, but he also knows that dogs are loyal to their owners, while cats are often loyal to the places that make them comfortable. So like most men, he prefers dogs to cats that are always a little evil. (Family's words, don't blame cat lovers)

It's just that he thought a little sadly, women seem to prefer cats more, and I remember that every time there is a cat abuse incident, the ten ** who jump out of righteous indignation are women. It shows that among the women in this world, it seems that cat-like personality accounts for the vast majority, in fact, it is understandable that women are often in a disadvantaged position in their careers, so they need a sense of security more and want to find a place where they feel comfortable.

So how many people in this world are really wholeheartedly busy for another person?

"What are you doing?" Chen Jun's voice came from behind him, with a wisp of after-bath fragrance. She gently held his shoulders and leaned down, her long hair touching his neck, tickling and slightly irritating.

"Oh, nothing, just flip through it." Liu Siyuan smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Do you like Eileen Chang too?" Glancing at the book he was reading, Chen Jun said with a little surprise.

"Hehe, my person's su zhì is relatively low, and I don't usually like to read, but I feel a little emotional after reading this sentence. Anyway, few boys like Zhang Ailing, right? Liu Siyuan said honestly.

Chen Jun nodded and said casually: "Back then, he also didn't like Zhang Ailing, saying that she was pretentious. ”

After speaking, she looked into the distance and seemed to be in a daze.

"Still thinking about him?" Liu Siyuan couldn't help but ask, although he regretted it a little after asking, because this question was a little too sensitive.

Fortunately, Chen Jun didn't particularly mind nodding, and after a while, he sat on the bed and looked at him and said, "Last week, he called me, saying that he is now doing sales in a private enterprise, and it seems that the boss values him very much, and said that he will come back to marry me when he makes money." ”

Liu Siyuan was stunned, and instinctively asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

"A few perfunctory words, it's impossible for me to be with him, I belong to the cat." Chen Jun smiled reluctantly. "He is such a person, I prefer a stable life more than the pursuit of true love."

Liu Siyuan sighed, but she seemed to gradually fall into the recollection: "I remember when I was in college, he was on our school's debate team, and he always made generous statements on various occasions, and he once planned to write novels on the Internet, saying that he planned to get rich by writing." ”

Liu Siyuan asked curiously: "What about later?" ”

Chen Jun recalled: "At the beginning, it was okay, he wrote the kind of very yy, what first destroyed the Japanese state, and then destroyed the American imperialism and so on, what is more amazing is that there are some angry young people like him who echo it, and gradually there are some fixed readers." At that time, he was also very happy, saying that he might have to make money before he graduated, and then his novel was put on the shelves, which means that he began to charge for chapters. As a result, almost overnight, the group of angry young fans who used to shout with him all day long disappeared, the number of collections continued to decline, and there was no minimum income guarantee for writing, so he earned more than a dozen yuan a month, just enough to buy a few buns. ”

Liu Siyuan smiled bitterly: "This can't be helped, everything is difficult at the beginning, writing this kind of thing on the one hand is about talent and opportunity, on the other hand, it is also a great test of willpower, it is not difficult to write tens of thousands of words, it is rare to write hundreds of thousands of words or even millions of words continuously, and the most rare thing is to collect less pitiful, and you have to persevere." I think there is a very good saying, writing a book is actually a kind of mental cultivation. ”

Chen Jun agreed: "Actually, if he persists, he may be able to write some small achievements, even if he can't make money by writing, at least his will and soul can be cleansed." As a result, he seems to have felt greatly humiliated by the dismal grades, especially the declining number of his collections, and gave up writing, in the current popular parlance, a eunuch. Speaking of the word 'eunuch', she blushed slightly.

Liu Siyuan thought for a while and said: "A friend of mine told me that in everything, you must learn to persevere in adversity, otherwise you will never be able to expect success." ”.t
