Chapter 13: A New Beginning (1)
To make up for the arrears of the small hotel, Fang Yicheng quit his job at the magazine and returned to City C.
Ah Xing, Ah Wei, and Ah Lei took their girlfriends to pick up Fang Yicheng, and also brought a girl named Wen Mei.
During this period, Wen Mei was close to Fang Yicheng's ear and told him that she would hate Xiang Yingyu to death, but her boyfriend, who was originally introduced to her, was robbed by this southern girl, and she didn't expect to hate her to death, it was really providential.
Fang Yicheng said lightly: "It's not Yingyu who snatched me away, it's that I'm willing to be a runaway boy." ”
Wen Mei said generously in the past: "Okay, don't mention that dead person in the future, let her mess up my youthful feelings, I don't want her to mess with my future life." ”
Fang Yicheng smiled at Wen Mei.
Wen Mei said passionately as if she had suddenly received some hint: "Why don't you write poems, love letters are fine, as a roommate and friend, I hate Xiang Yingyu, and I am envious and jealous, I have secretly read what you originally wrote to her, if it were me, I would have been from you a long time ago." ”
Wen Mei said these words with a look as if those poems and love letters were written to her, as if she and Fang Yicheng had known each other or had already become friends a hundred years ago.
Fang Yicheng said goodbye in a light tone: "Brothers, forgive me, I am a little uncomfortable today, so I will leave first." ”
Everyone looked at Fang Yicheng with concern and surprise: "Haven't come out of the shadows yet?" ”
Fang Yicheng smiled awkwardly: "Brothers, drink well!" Be happy. ”
Fang Yicheng stood up, Wen Mei walked over and graciously grabbed his arm: "I'll send you!" ”
Fang Yicheng smiled at Wen Mei and gently pushed her arm away: "No, I'm okay, I want to be alone for a while." ”
Wen Mei was about to lean over again, Fang Yicheng waved her hand, sighed and continued, "You don't know me." ”
Walking on the noisy road of City C, Fang Yicheng suddenly felt that fate was so tricky, and after a lot of twists and turns, he found that many things had returned to the same place.
City C is the time to recruit. Fang Yicheng walked to the recruitment propaganda vehicle and asked about the upper age limit for recruitment, a college student was twenty-four years old, and he just happened to be on the top line.
Registering, filling out forms, physical examinations, waiting, and passing notices, Fang Yicheng soon became an active soldier in an armed police force.
Private soldiers, private officers, and non-commissioned officers of the first class, five years of military age have passed in the blink of an eye.
Time passed for five years and returned to a new starting point, Fang Yicheng stood on the square of the high-speed rail station in City C and didn't know where to go for a while.
The change of time and environment is the best healing medicine, and the five-year military career has completely changed Fang Yicheng from personality to appearance.
The previous hippie smiling Fang Yicheng is gone, leaving behind a more handsome and upright figure and a clean and handsome fortitude and coldness.
After retiring, Fang Yicheng first returned to his hometown to visit his father and stepmother.
He no longer has hatred for his stepmother, and a more open-minded state of mind has allowed him to let go of everything.
After living at home for a few days, Fang Yicheng rarely took the initiative to deal with the family's farm work with his father.
Before leaving his homeland again, when he put tens of thousands of yuan in retirement fees in front of his father's eyes, he saw a rare bright smile on his stepmother's face, and his father shed cloudy old tears.
In fact, my father was not really too old, he had just reached the age of fifty, he was an honest old farmer, his expression always looked a little wooden and dull, and the folds left on his face by the years and the dirty white hair that had dried him made him even older.
Life is not easy, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, who can really spend a life quietly and carefree without complaints?
Fang Yicheng stood on the square of the high-speed rail station in City C with his back to the sunset that was about to disappear, and gently flipped through his mobile phone, now is the information age, even if the information is thousands of miles away, it can be vividly remembered.
City C and City Y are still the focus of Fang Yicheng's attention, Fang Yicheng first browsed the recruitment information in City C, and at the same time considered whether to call a few buddies of the year to get together.
In fact, the national policy has provisions on the resettlement of soldiers, and the Veterans Affairs Bureau originally planned to place him in a unit with a good income in City C, but Fang Yicheng still refused, after so much he wanted to break into the society by himself.
Fang Yicheng finally gave up the idea of getting together with a few buddies.
Disappeared into thin air without a sound for five years, he didn't want to disturb everyone's now peaceful life anymore, and most importantly, he didn't want to relive the painful past in their inquiring eyes.
Suddenly, the recruitment information of a media company in Y City stayed in Fang Yicheng's sight, and Fang Yicheng turned around and walked to the ticket hall of the high-speed rail station.
