CHAPTER XI 1
Don't look down on yourself, before the age of thirty, you must have modesty, and you must have pride

Jiang Yao wasn't too surprised when she saw Song Li in the office, she sat there and smiled. Song Li nodded slightly at Jiang Yao inside through the glass door, and then walked straight to his seat.
After the company reported to the company, Jiang Yao told Song Li that he still had to go back to Global first to complete the unfinished work before leaving, and in the afternoon, after sorting out the materials, Song Li appeared at the door of Xiao Pei's office.
Xiao Pei had just returned from Hong Kong, a little tired, but he seemed to be in good spirits, and as soon as he turned his head after answering the phone, he saw Song Li. After work that day, Xiao Pei said to "catch the wind" for Song Li, Song Li hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
This time, it was the noodle restaurant in front of Song Li's house.
Xiao Pei's suit was put on the chair next to him, his white shirt rolled up his sleeves, and Song Li poured Xiao Pei a beer.
"Are you alright?" Xiao Pei asked with a smile.
"It's fine." Song Li said.
"That's good." Xiao Pei still smiled.
Then, the two of them began to eat noodles with their heads bowed.
This is different from what Song Li imagined, Xiao Pei didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, just asked himself if he was okay, and then said "It's okay", and he got the expected satisfaction.
After the noodles were eaten, Xiao Pei looked at the remaining half of the beer in the glass, and then smiled, "Actually, growth is like this, after crying and laughing, everything will pass." Do you have a feeling now, that is, you seem to have thought about everything? ”
Song Li was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said "um".
"I think you must find it strange that people like me and Jiang Yao must be the people you hated the most when you were in college. Actually, Song Li, after you experience society, you will find that it is impossible for any of us not to change. Jiang Yao told me about you when she came to me to ask for your leave, and I also remember what she said to me, not everything used to be beautiful, and not all changes are disgusting. She told me that at least after this incident, you will mature. Xiao Pei smiled and took a sip of half a glass of beer, "You see, I went to the United States at the age of twenty-three, went to work at the age of twenty-six, got married at the age of twenty-eight, usually wore Armani haute couture suits to work, divorced at the age of thirty-one, and at the age of thirty-two, I was alone in a cheap suit with no, and was beaten back to Chang'an by the American head office, and now I am thirty-six years old, but I still work hard, I am not a person who is addicted to money and power, I just, but we always have to choose a way of life to continue." Song Li, there are many people who beat us in life, love, money, power, and even banana peels on the side of the road, but after wiping away our tears, we always have to stand up, if nothing else, even for Burberry in the window, for the rock music on the stage, for the hairy crab that is only willing to eat once a month, for the 'bright future' in your junior high school diary, and for the old mother at home who will have a sour nose when you think about it. ”
"Thank you, you." Song Li lowered his head and said the three words very quietly.
"No thanks." Xiao Pei still smiled, and drank a third of the beer, "Ah, no, no, I'm home alone tonight, I'm going back early." See you tomorrow, Song Li. ”
Xiao Pei handed the noodle shop owner a hundred, then got up and picked up the suit and purse, took the change handed over by the boss, reached out to hail a taxi, and walked away in the night of Chang'an.
Song Li stood on the side of the road, watched Xiao Pei walk away freely, and exhaled deeply.
The summer of 2014 came to an abrupt and sad end.
