Chapter 72: Class Reunion

After the old classmates met, there was naturally a lot of excitement.

At that time, I was studying at an engineering university, and there were only seven girls in the class, and I was known as "Gangnam Strange" at that time. There are already six of them present today, and the most beautiful Liao Xurong has not yet arrived.

"What? Isn't Liao Xurong coming? Li Chenghua was the first to ask about his dream lover.

"What's wrong? Are you still thinking about Liao Xurong? Almost everyone laughed, Li Chenghua's pursuit of Liao Xurong was an open secret.

"Of course I do." Li Chenghua rolled his eyes and said, "I still think about Chen Xiaodao, Huang Jiang, Li Yuan, Lan Xiaoqing, I think about everyone!" ”

A female classmate named Li Yuan said: "Liao Xurong is coming, but the company seems to have something to do yet, and it may be a little later." ”

"Well, let's wait a while before serving." Li Chenghua sat down, and several male classmates handed over cigarettes at the same time.

Li Chenghua said: "You guys put it first, taste this cigarette of mine, Russian." ”

As he spoke, Li Chenghua took out a pack of green soft-packaged cigarettes from his pocket, which seemed to be more broken than what we usually smoked.

"Wow, Russian smoke? Well, I've never smoked a foreign cigarette. A male classmate named Zhou Hua said, took the cigarette handed over by Li Chenghua with both hands, put it under his nose and sniffed it deeply, looking extremely intoxicated.

I lit a Russian cigarette with a blue body and a white filter and took a puff of smoke. It tasted a little rushy, and it was a little strange, but I wasn't used to it anyway, so I put the cigarette in the ashtray and let it burn on its own.

Everyone praised this cigarette for being easy to smoke.

Zhou Hua said: "This cigarette is easy to smoke, but I don't know where to buy it." ”

Li Chenghua said generously: "You have money and you have nowhere to buy it." But I still have a lot of them at home, so I'll go to my house another day and get two for you. ”

Zhou Hua said: "That's it. If you get used to it and can't find a place to buy it in the future, it will be uncomfortable. ”

Li Chenghua laughed.

Zhou Hua said to Huang Jiang again: "You said yes, Huang Jiang? You've been to a foreign country for a few years, you're used to smoking foreign cigarettes, and now you're coming back to smoke your own cigarettes, you're definitely not used to it, are you? By the way, does everyone in foreign countries smoke cigars? ”

Before Huang Jiang could speak, Li Chenghua said first: "Of course not, there are ordinary smokers like us." Those cigars cost tens or hundreds of dollars, a cigarette! How can ordinary people afford to smoke? Last time my friend brought me ten, three hundred dollars each, how much is that? One is 3,000 yuan! Fuck, taking a sip is like eating money. After smoking one, the others are reluctant to be smoked until now. ”

Everyone admired and said: "The life of a rich person, we can't imagine it." ”

Zhou Hua said: "Not only is the life of a rich person you can't imagine, but you can't imagine our Li Chenghua's temperament." ”

"What? Let's hear about it. Everyone leaned over with interest and said.

Li Chenghua said angrily: "You kid, you're going to break the gossip about Lao Tzu again, aren't you?" Believe it or not, Lao Tzu cut you off! ”

Zhou Hua said: "Do you dare to do it and are you afraid that others will break the news?" Did you know? The last time I went to the school to look for him, I happened to meet the school to change a batch of equipment. There was a person, an agent of a foreign brand, who begged him for a long time. And guess what? This guy pointed to someone's nose, as if teaching his son, and said, "You, come to me to promote foreigners' brands, do you have the same virtue as you?" What's the difference between that and a traitor? I'm telling you, if we want to use it, we have to use domestic ones! ”

Everyone gave a thumbs up and applauded loudly.

Li Chenghua smiled reservedly.

Zhou Hua said: "God! You don't know, that person looks like he is in his forties, and he scolded him on the spot like a grandson, and he didn't dare to come out. I was watching from the sidelines, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. He, this guy, also gave people a half-day ideological and political class. ”

Li Chenghua became the focus of everyone, and everyone was talking around him.

Huang Jiang and I sat far away.

Huang Jiang lowered his head and drank tea silently. Once upon a time, he was also the center of the dinner table, but now no one pays attention to him.

I understood Huang Jiang's mood and whispered to him: "Actually, I have something I want to ask you for help. ”

Huang Jiang smiled bitterly and said, "Lao Tzu is so virtuous now, what else can he help you?" I can't afford to eat. ”

I said, "Actually, the Sun Moon Group ......."

At this time, someone was calling Huang Jiang's name.

Huang Jiang and I raised our heads at the same time, only to see Zhou Hua say to Huang Jiang: "Don't be too anxious about your affairs, take your time." What does that mean? The poorest is ...... to eat."

"If you don't die, you will come out in the end!" Everyone went on to say.

The topic immediately turned to Huang Jiang, and the students expressed sympathy, regret, or sadness.

Someone said, "Alas, people nowadays really don't feel safe at all." After decades of hard work, he returned to the pre-liberation period after illness. ”

Someone said, "Isn't it?" The conditions in Huang Jiang's family were the best back then, who would have thought that this would be the case today? ”

Someone said: "This is called good and bad luck for people, and there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky." Therefore, don't be too arrogant when you're proud, and don't be too depressed when you're down. ”

Someone said: "Back then, I was in a bedroom with Huang Jiang. That guy, how arrogant he was at that time, threw out a thousand dollars at two o'clock in the middle of the night and asked me to buy a barbecue. I climbed the window and the water pipe, and I bought the barbecue back, but I couldn't climb back. A few of his fellows ate and drank in the dormitory, causing me to be cold all night outside. ”

Someone said: "At the beginning, Huang Jiang and Boss Li were also the peerless pride in our class, but now they are ......"

……

Li Chenghua said: "In a situation like Huangjiang's now, I can only endure it, no matter how good or bad he is, I will find a job to do first." Fortunately, he is now working as an assistant to the general manager of Riyue Group, although he only serves tea and water to people, but he can ensure a ...... life."

"Assistant General Manager of Riyue Group?" Li Yuan suddenly interrupted Li Chenghua's words and said, "Riyue Group does not have an assistant general manager." ”

"How do you know?" Li Chenghua asked strangely.

"Of course I know, I work in the Sun Moon Group myself." Li Yuan said, "Our chairman is the general manager called Lin Xiaodong, and Lin Xiaodong also sent out a recruitment message a few days ago, saying that he was looking for an assistant. However, in the past two days, our chairman has been too busy and has not come to the company, so those who have come to apply have not yet been interviewed, so we don't have any assistant general manager. ”

Everyone looked at Huang Jiang: "Oh, it turns out that someone is lying." ”

Zhou Huayi said solemnly: "I said Huangjiang, why should you. Everyone is an old classmate, so why do such a thing? Yes, being the assistant general manager of Riyue Group is very majestic, and it can be envied by many people. But in front of old classmates, why pretend, right? We won't laugh at you. ”

Li Chenghua also said earnestly: "Zhou Hua is right. What kind of majesty are you playing in front of these old classmates, aren't you? Your situation, it's not that you don't know, what are you pretending to be? What's the big deal about not having money? What's so great about bankruptcy? In this world, you are not the only one who owes money and does not pay it back. Chen Xiaodao, family conditions are not good, isn't he working hard to buy a small house? They didn't say anything, did they? ”

Another male classmate said: "The Sun Moon Group is indeed very remarkable, and it is really not easy to get in." Last time, I wanted to change jobs, so I went for an interview, but I didn't even pass the first hurdle. Just now Boss Li said that Huang Jiang is the assistant general manager of Riyue Group, and I thought I would have another chance this time. Who knows......"

"Who knew someone was bragging." Someone said.

All the students laughed quietly.

Someone blamed Huang Jiang, saying that he shouldn't die to brag in front of his old classmates.

Someone comforted Huang Jiang and asked him not to give up, but there was blame in his tone.

Huang Jiang didn't say a word, he lowered his head deeply, as if he wanted to find a hole to get into.

The way he looks, he can't help but make people feel uncomfortable for him.
