Chapter 1: Divergence

Next Chapter

"Ah, I want to go to work in Pingjing."

Su Qingyue's words shocked his girlfriend's eyes, and he foamed a mouthful of cappuccino's milk in his mouth, unable to speak for a long time.

She looked at him stunned. It's like looking at another person, but it's the one you're very familiar with.

Starbucks has a lot of people, and this is the first Starbucks in the southern metropolis.

It's already 2003, but for a small city like Nandu, Starbucks still represents identity.

The person next to him said something, but Ah Yan couldn't hear a word.

Seeing that Ah Yan didn't speak, Su Qingyue said again: "They sent me an offer to be the marketing manager." A big software company, their new interactive entertainment division, is doing online games. I think it's a great opportunity. ”

"Oh."

It took a long time for Ah Yan to squeeze out an oh word.

But his face changed significantly.

She was obviously angry, a little baby fat on her face, because she was angry, bulging.

Biting his lip, he didn't look like an adult in his twenties at all.

It's more like a girl of sixteen or seventeen, some ignorant girls.

Especially with the fresh blue and white checkered skirt and those translucent eyes.

In fact, they have been in love since their sophomore year and have been in love for more than five years now.

Ah Mu has always been like this.

Unlike other girls, she doesn't love vanity and doesn't care about money.

Everyone else likes to find a boyfriend who has a car and a house, but she chose Su Qingyue.

A boy from a small town like Wywen.

looks beautiful, but there is always a rebellious atmosphere between the eyebrows.

Su Qingyue grew up in the dean of the institution.

Because of his talent and intelligence, he never forgets his achievements, and his grades are naturally outstanding, and he is given various preferential treatment by school teachers.

Until one day, he maliciously destroyed the experimental equipment imported by the school and was expelled.

From excellent character and learning, to rotten wood that cannot be carved, it is useless to even spend a night.

Later, his parents tried a lot to arrange him to another school.

Su Qingyue gradually learned to be a man with his tail between his legs.

But whenever I reminisce about the past.

In addition to being honest about his mistakes, he will throw out the sentence "People are not beasts and teenagers" to summarize his life.

Ah Mu remembered that he was amused by him, and giggled.

You'll feel like you've tamed a beast.

A sense of pride arises spontaneously.

However, her mother strongly opposed them being together because Su Qingyue was born in a small city.

Fortunately, Ah Yan's father is the director of the office of the Municipal Calligraphy Association.

And Su Qingyue has also been practicing calligraphy since he was eight years old, and he began to practice wild grass in college.

A copy of Sun Guoting's "Book Book" is a bedside must-have.

So he casually wrote a six-foot full opening: "I am Qingdu Shanshuilang." The Celestial Sect divides and becomes mad. He has been granted a rain branch wind coupon, and he is tired of staying in the clouds and borrowing the moon chapter. Thousands of poems, thousands of wines. A few times once looked at the Hou Wang. The jade building Jin Que returned lazily, and inserted plum blossoms to get drunk in Luoyang. ”

This shocked Ah Yan's father.

What shocked me was not that his words were quite Wei and Jin legacy.

What's more important is that behind this work, the uninhibited and free and easy are revealed.

Words are like people!

The Yan family has always been the head of Ah Yan's father.

Later, Su Qingyue entered the city's Metropolis Daily and became a reporter.

Now it has been more than a year, and in a few months, Su Qingyue will have a establishment.

The Yan family is also waiting for this day, because men have a structure, and they have face.

is worthy of his daughter, of course, such an idea itself can be understood.

"We turned positive in August, and there are still a few months to go. With the establishment, it is possible to get married. ”

After a long time, Ah Yan finally spoke.

Su Qingyue put his mind at ease, as long as he didn't speak, it would be easy to communicate seriously.

"I know, but this is a rare opportunity," he explained, "In the early days of reform and opening up, people who seized the opportunity, even if they were not too capable, could still make a lot of money." This is especially true of the tech tycoons who surged up in the late nineties......"

"Wait, what does this have to do with you?"

As usual, Ah Yan interrupted him with a cold eye.

Calmness has always been one of her strengths, Su Qingyue used to tell herself this.

But I don't know why, lately he has often experienced that there is still a bit of meanness in how calm he is.

A kind of restraint that makes people can't let go.

"Of course it does, why can't we do it when they can do it? Princes and generals, rather have a kind! I went to Pyeongkyo this time and saw that those giants are entering this field. Their sense of smell must be very sensitive, and my observation is that in an era, fifteen to twenty years, there will definitely be a group of people who will stand up, and I hope that person is myself. ”

"How can you make a fortune making games? Have you ever seen someone who makes games get rich? Do we have such people around us? On the contrary, what we see is more of a plaything. I don't understand why they asked you to be a marketing manager. Ah Yan put the cola on the table, and his face became more and more ugly, looking a little childish.

"I can do a lot, I know more about the media, I know how to do marketing, I have the experience. Because an industry rises, related industries, including the media, will also rise. In that case, they need professional people, so I sent them resumes that day. ”

"So you think you're rich?" Ah Yan sneered.

"Don't laugh at me, okay?" Su Qingyue, who came from a small city, has been suppressed by Ah Yan to a certain extent, but recently he has become more and more uncomfortable, and today he finally couldn't help it, and said: "I'm serious with you, I really want to go, no matter what the cost." ”

"Not only that, but you'll also lose your establishment, and my parents care about this the most." Ah Yan reminded him, quite threatening.

The more she spoke, the calmer it became, but it also grew colder and colder.

Su Qingyue knew that she was really angry.

But if you are angry, you should be angry, he is really suffocated by the dull style of the newspaper group.

Sometimes when he walks on the road after work, he even envies the cleaners.

"When my work can also make me exhausted!"

He felt that he was a fish in a fish tank, able to eat, but not free.

But none of that matters.

The important thing is that Su Qingyue recently went to Pingjing.

Discover the important changes that are taking place in this world.

And people in small cities obviously don't notice these changes.

They are still living in the swaddling clothes of the establishment.

"Do you think our relationship is no match for a single formation?" Su Qingyue finally asked.

“……”

This question stunned Ah Yan's question.

It is true that she is very angry now, and she feels that Su Qingyue didn't tell herself before making this decision;

Second, I think they are going to get married, as long as they get the establishment, how can they say that they will go to Pingjing.

She really couldn't accept Su Qingyue's sudden challenge today.

But if you really want to talk about their feelings, they are not worth a formation, but they are not.

I was stunned for a long time.

She finally came back to her senses: "Without the establishment, my parents would not agree to us being together." ”

"So you're asking me to choose one or the other?" Su Qingyue was shocked, Ah Yan would use this kind of thing to remind herself.

"I'm just surprised, why don't you let it go, now the newspaper group is thriving, plus a bonus of 3,000 every month, and there will definitely be more in the future."

"Hualuo Company will give me five thousand five." Su Qingyue spread his hands and said his salary, which felt like 50,000.

"Why are they giving you all this money?"

"Because of my ability, I showed them the articles I wrote, the topics I planned. I told them how I analyzed and researched, and I told them everything. And I told me all about the market strategy and ideas, 5,000 is less, just because I just went. ”

Su Qingyue didn't say that his proud work - "Blooming Flowers and Unfinished Possibilities".

This is the first time in history that the media of an international city such as Pingjing, Songjiang, and the Special Economic Zone have jointly done special content in the metropolis newspaper of a small city like Nandu.

Su Qingyue is actually the initiator.

But because of his lack of influence, he took the initiative to give up this position to Lu Zhenbin, editor-in-chief of Pingjing Youth Daily.

in exchange for the position of participant and copywriter.

He thought Ah Yan remembered this, but she had already forgotten.

She reminded Su Qingyue: "Pingjing's consumption is high, and five thousand and a half is not worth the 1,000 yuan in our southern capital." ”

"Ah, why don't you understand? It's not about money. ”

"What's the problem then?" Ah asked with wide eyes.

Their voices were noticeably louder.

Su Qingyue had no choice but to say what he had been worried about.

"This time I went to Pyeongjing and saw the development of the Internet. After talking to the print and television media there, I found that their income has plummeted, not by a few percent, but by tens of percent, but the income of the Internet has increased exponentially......

"So what?" Ah Yan interrupted him, completely unaware that the crisis was imminent.

"If the first-tier cities can be affected, then it won't be long before it will affect us. This is certain, and at that time, the income of the Shanghai Business Group will drop sharply, and the salary will also fall, and even the establishment will have to lay off people. ”

"How is this possible?" Ah Yan suddenly laughed.

"How is this impossible?"

Su Qingyue couldn't stand it a little, and his eyes looked like he didn't care.

But come to think of it, hasn't Ah Mu always been like this?

When I was in college, I won her heart by doing high math for Ah Yan.

Of course, her eyes are clear, but sometimes clear eyes may not be penetrating.

Now that retribution has come, he is quite helpless, and leans back on the seat.

A mother and daughter next to her couldn't help laughing when they heard his words.

The two of them argued at this point, and they were deadlocked.

After years of getting along with each other, they have very few and quarrel as much as before.

On the contrary, silence is sometimes more terrifying.

The worry in Su Qingyue's heart began to rise slowly.

After a while, Ah Yan suddenly asked him, "Have you told your uncle and aunt?" What do they think? ”

"I'm an adult."

"Since you are an adult, you should know such a decision, including our two families."

"Ah Yan, no matter where I am, my heart will not change, don't you understand?"

Su Qingyue grabbed Ah Ming's hand, but Ah Mo instantly broke free.

"Don't talk about this, Su Qingyue, if your heart hasn't changed, why didn't you ask me when you did this. You don't even say hello, you just do it. Now that you even have a position, and you come to tell me again, don't you think you're hypocritical? Ah Yan's voice became louder.

"You never gave me this chance, did you? Every time I say something, you hit me mercilessly. But didn't you notice that my judgment was accurate? I said earlier that the BP opportunity disappeared, so that your distant cousin, don't learn to repair; Isn't it right to let you learn how to use computers and stop writing manuscripts by hand? ”

"That's right! Right! Right! You're right, okay? ”

The more Ah Yan spoke, the more angry he became, he got up suddenly, left the rest of the food, and walked outside.

Looking at her back, he should have chased him out at this time in the past.

But today, Su Qingyue suddenly felt very tired.

Tired and weak.

The mother and daughter next to him looked at him and couldn't help but show contempt.

Su Qingyue thought to himself, maybe you all think this is a fantasy.

Anyway, no one understands what I say.

People are sometimes lonely, he thought so, and chased him out.

On weekends, the streets of Nandu are still bustling.

People are out shopping leisurely, probably not realizing the arrival of the big era.

In the bustling crowd, Su Qingyue saw Ah Yan's back for the first time.

is thin and thin, and has accompanied him through three years of college and two years of work......

Every time he quarreled, he was soft, and when he caught up, he apologized and said good things.

He suddenly felt very lost and didn't want to chase Ah Yan anymore.

I stood on the street for a long time in a daze, and then turned around.

In the evening, he went home alone and looked at his mobile phone, but Ah Yan did not call or send a text message.

At that moment, he felt like he could go.

At about ten o'clock, my mother called.

He asked with a face, "Why do you stay in Nandu so well, you want to go to Pingjing, and don't you want to do a good job." ”

No matter how he explained, the old man didn't understand.

But in the end, the old man told him that he had to give up the job opportunity given to him by Hualuo.

"What is an online game! That's not a serious person's doing! ”

The older generation does not approve of the game.

After all, establishment and marriage are the iron laws of serious people.

The noise of the old man was noisy for a long time, and in order to hang up quickly, Su Qingyue had to agree very vaguely.

At night, he lay in bed, and it was not a pleasure to think about it.

I feel that I am not understood, and I can't sleep no matter how I sleep.

Warlock gave him a week to move over.

Suddenly, he felt that it didn't take that long.

Immediately jumped out of bed and decided to go to the train station late at night to buy a ticket for the latest trip to Heikyo.

There are not many people in the queue at the station late at night.

Tickets sold out quickly.

There are only hard seats, and he thinks that hard seats are fine, and it doesn't matter if you stand on the ticket.

Coming out of the station, I looked at the tall buildings that were being built in the city.

Su Qingyue felt that at this moment, he was tightly bonded to this era.

But what's wrong.

It seems that I want to look at it again, and every time I quarrel, it will be like this.

I felt a little helpless.

I felt that I was very unproductive, but I still couldn't hold back and sent a text message to Ah Ming.

"I'll be in the car at 5:20 the day after tomorrow."
