Chapter 53: Long time gone

At seven o'clock in the morning, Chen Chen got up and began to pack his things and go to class. Zhang Zhe's news came as promised: 'Are you up yet?' I remember having breakfast before going to class. She put away her phone and walked out.

This kind of thing is not easy to do, although she said that she could only grow up without Zhang Zhe. But it was not her plan to expect the other party to change this kind of thing. The best state for two people to get along with each other is nothing more than that we don't need to change, but we have a good fit. To be good or bad is a personal choice.

In a tense environment, there is always no shortage of hard-working and positive people, and when Chen Chen walked to the cafeteria, it was already full of people. She picked her things, sat down in a corner, and began to check the GTE news. Zhang Zhe got the distribution right, according to the days of the pre-construction and completion, it is estimated that it is almost, every day before checking the news, she told herself to see the results of her work, to see how effective the publicity plan she wrote. Chen Chen was also as hard as usual.

"Miss Chen?"

She raised her head and frowned and looked over, Luo Yangfan was wearing a black polo shirt and a baseball cap, looking at her with some surprise.

"Hello, I didn't expect to meet Mr. Luo here." She held out her hand in a gesture of friendliness.

"Hello, it's quite unexpected, why is Miss Chen here?"

"I'm a graduate student at S University, and my supervisor is this year's exchange professor."

"No wonder, it turned out to be an alumnus of the alliance school."

"Why is Mr. Luo here?" Chen Chen asked

"My good friend works here and we play baseball together every week. Miss Chan......"

"It's not working hours, if you don't mind, just call me Chen Chen."

"Okay, you're here alone? What about your boyfriend, Mr. Zhang Zhe? ”

"Broke up." Chen Chen smiled lightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm disappointed and rude." Luo Yangfan was a little guilty and asked by himself.

"It's okay, if you don't mind, we'll talk next time, I'm going to class." Breakfast was not finished, Chen Chen didn't want to continue to be polite with him, so he took the plate and poured it into the trash can and walked out of the restaurant.

When he walked into the laboratory, Chen Chen's tutor was continuing to calculate in front of the blackboard. She looked at it for a moment to see where he had calculated, put down her bag, picked up the chalk, and continued to look at the trend on the other blackboard to list the formula.

"Is there a reply from the Law Fund?" The tutor spoke first

"Nope. I have a bachelor's degree and am an inconspicuous private office, so I probably didn't like me. Chen Chen replied.

No one spoke, and they continued to write and draw on the blackboard. This fluctuation is completely unsolvable, and the tutor took Chen Chen to calculate for a few days without any results.

The formulas on the blackboard were written and erased, and the graphics were drawn and changed, but there was still no clue. After hastily settling lunch, she chatted with her mentor after the meal as usual.

"Chen Chen, have you thought about your topic?"

"Intended to write about the connection between behavioral psychology and financial investment."

"This topic is very good, behavioral finance is still blank in China, and this topic is not bad."

After receiving the affirmation, the two did not continue to communicate and began to continue their work in the afternoon.

That's how Chen Chen and his mentor get along. Her mentor is an academic addict, unmarried and single, and has devoted her life to financial research, so it is inevitable that there will be some communication barriers. Chatting with Chen Chen is about finance, and work is about finance, and in this chaotic era, a person like him, who has no public image and only knows research, has no influence at all. When Chen Chen chose a tutor, he saw that he couldn't find a student for three consecutive years, so he took the initiative to consult and chat a few words, but during the exchange, he couldn't understand Chen Chen's polite and euphemistic words at all. It wasn't until Chen Chen directly told him, 'I want to be a graduate student under you,' that he understood that Chen Chen was the one who was going to be admitted to graduate school.

In this era, academic achievements are high, and no one knows them if they don't hype. While a book like "Financial Wars," which compliments an established financial family, can be consecrated for hype, "Capital" has been reduced to the point where no one but professionals like it.

After the knock on the door rang, the professor was unmoved, Chen Chen put down the chalk and went over to open the door, and the person outside the door was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, wearing the staff badge on his chest.

"Hello, I'm looking for Professor Wang from this year's exchange" Broken Chinese pronunciation, but quite proficient.

"Hello, Professor Wang is inside," Chen Chen took a step back and made a gesture of please.

"Chen Chen?" Luo Yangfan walked over: "This time it's really more coincidental." ”

"Why are you here?" Chen Chen was a little awkward, and silently complained in his heart, 'Isn't he a dead stalker?' ’

"The one who just went in was my friend, and he said he needed to come here before leaving, and I was waiting for him." Luo Yangfan couldn't hide the joy in his eyes: "It's really a coincidence, you are Professor Wang's student this year?" ”

"Uh-huh, the only student." Chen Chen smiled and relaxed a lot.

"Let's have a light meal together when we have time, I think we should have a meal at the level of fate." Luo Yangfan added the original plan that was ruined because of Zhang Zhe: "I fell into the trap at that time, don't say that you didn't design it, but I still hold a grudge." He laughed and teased about his own defeat.

Chen Chen has been here for a long time, and he doesn't have any acquaintances. Although Luo Yangfan has only one side, he looks very kind. She only hesitated for a moment, then accepted the invitation, "Okay, I need to check your account carefully to rule out the suspicion that you are a stalker." Chen Chen also laughed and teased.

"Then I'll have to be ready to speak, in case you're asked."

His friend came out of it and saw that they were chatting, and after a polite word, he turned around and left, Luo Yangfan left Chen Chen's phone to say goodbye and left.

After Chen Chen left, Xiao Yuan hid in his small apartment alone and did not go home. Zhang Xuan couldn't accept that he was gay and refused to see him, Zhang Zhe kept persuading him, but it didn't seem to work, and the fact that he hadn't received a call from Zhang Xuan for so long was the best explanation.

At ten o'clock in the morning, he lifted the quilt and looked at the sunlight outside the house, thinking about the days when Chen Chen was here alone. I took out my phone and broadcast her call.

"Xiaoyuan?" Chen Chen's voice sounded happy.

"Sister, are you okay over there alone?"

"Well, it's okay, I don't have time to think about it, I'm usually busy."

"Are you busy right now?" Xiao Yuan hurriedly asked

"No, you've packed up and are resting, how are you doing?"

"I miss you so much, when will you come back. My brother wouldn't let me go home when he found out I was gay, and I was still living in my own little apartment. I miss you very much, I miss my brother, and I miss Brother Zhang Zhe. ”

"Don't think about it, I'll be back next year. I'll ask Anna to talk to your brother when I have time, okay? ”

"Well, will you bring me something delicious when you come back?"

"Of course it will, I've bought it for you, and I'm on my way to your arms."

"Aren't you ashamed that you're a gay for me?" He asked in a whisper.

"You are you, it doesn't matter if you like boys or girls, you can live according to what you want, the most important thing is to be able to live according to your wants. If you dare to say it, it means that you accept yourself, and I am proud of you. ”

"You have to come back, don't stay there."

"Definitely."

On weekend afternoons, Anna found time to go to Zhang Xuan. Zhang Zhe didn't take it to heart when she said it, after all, Zhang Zhe didn't mean much to her, after Chen Chen told her, she finally regarded it as a matter and put it on her agenda

When she walked in here, Anna had a feeling of being in a different world, everything seemed to have happened a century ago, the exhibition hall and warehouse were ready, and now they were waiting for GTE to arrive and choose a day to announce the official entry, Zhang Zhe and Zhang Xuan were not busy, Zhang Zhe was sitting behind the table reading a book, Zhang Xuan was in a daze.

After seeing Anna coming, a trace of impatience flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes, and he was still resentful of Anna's scolding Zhang Zhe for his relatives.

"What are you doing here?"

"Don't worry, it's not because of you, I want to talk to you about Zhang Yuan."

Zhang Xuan glanced at Zhang Zhe.

"It's not him, he doesn't even tell me to move. Chen Chen called me, please ask me to come to you. Anna dismissed his idea. Hearing Chen Chen's name, Zhang Zhe put down the book.

"What's wrong with you that can't accept that a cutie likes a boy?" Anna was straight to death

"Yin and Yang are in harmony, gay is just not right. I can't take it. ”

"I can't accept that you are going to die." Anna put her foot on the coffee table and snorted.

"You!!" Zhang Xuan slapped the table and stood up.

"Zhang Xuan, Xiaoyuan just likes boys, you can't accept it, but if you force him to be with a girl, he may be depressed, he may commit suicide, and you will be happy? Is that what you want? ”

"Then I'd rather not have this brother."

"Then what is the meaning of your brother's existence? Relatives and friends are supportive of each other, knowing that you are different and I stand by your side to protect you, rather than accusing him of being like others. Think about whether you love him because he is your brother or if you want a loved one by your side like everyone else. If you're the latter one, you're as selfish as you're stingy, and of course, I'm not surprised. ”

"What right do you have to accuse me, you haven't experienced it."

"Why can't I cook, it's rare that I can't say that other people's food is not delicious?" Anna sneered.

"Ah Xuan, Xiaoyuan is happy, and I think happiness is the most important thing. You shouldn't sway him with your feelings. Zhang Zhe said softly: "We don't have the right to ask others to change because of their feelings, I waited until Chen Chen left to understand what I was wrong, don't wait for Xiaoyuan to really leave you, and then start to regret it." He is your only relative, and he loves you. ”

Anna is gone. She just helped Chen Chen to persuade Zhang Xuan, and she was about to leave after persuading.

"I accepted him, what should I do if others can't accept it, I finally gave him his current life, he suddenly beat himself into an alien, no one is not afraid of aliens, he is like this, how will he go in the future."

Zhang Xuan lowered his head and cried, whose fault is inconclusive. When we accept this dangerous world with all our hearts, we will realize how cruel this world really is.

Zhang Zhe patted him on the shoulder, not knowing how to comfort him. He knew how difficult life was, and how superficial comfort could deceive him.
