CHAPTER IX

Huang Siyao often had a premonition that her relationship with Du Wancheng would not lead to anything. But the other men didn't seem to be in her eyes.

She is tied to Zhang Haifei, this is her responsibility, and there is no room for prevarication. He couldn't live without her, and she didn't think about abandoning him. But she also needs a man to give her most of her life, which Zhang Haifei did not give and could not give. So she had trysts with Du Wancheng in nearby cities from time to time. However, she already knew that this was going to end.

And Du Wancheng has nothing that can last long. His nature seems to be to force him to destroy all relationships and become free, lonely, lonely again.

Zhang Haifei's fame is getting bigger and bigger, and he is even about to enter the ranks of platinum writers, and many people come to Huizhou to see him. Huang Siyao has to entertain guests almost every day.

But these are dried fish, and there's nothing to mention. But there is also an occasional eel that is rarer, which is very interesting.

A few of them were frequent guests, and they were all classmates of Zhang Haifei when he was studying abroad.

There was a classmate named Tang He, who was a man who served in the military circles, a young brigade commander who graduated from the University of Manchester. "Military life has given me the leisure to think about something deep," he said. That's why I love military life. ”

And Mei Liguang, who is from the northern part of Guangdong, who writes science fiction about the universe. The other is also a writer, his name is Han Mengping.

They are all the same age as Zhang Haifei, and they are all young intellectuals at that time, or they can be said to be young talents with excellent backgrounds and outstanding talents.

Because of Zhang Haifei's line, they also have more contact with each other. They know the roots, and they like to gossip about the world.

Of course, any man's conversation is about three topics, one is political history, and when he talks about these things, it seems that they are some big man in history, or in the current position, and the chatter can often get that kind of false satisfaction.

The second is naturally to talk about making money, because making money is a representative of success, they take the trouble to talk about various ways to make money, talking about these things does not seem to be very rich, but it seems that only by talking about these things can they show that they are a motivated man.

The third is women and sex. This is basically the ultimate topic, and a man's conversation may start with a variety of topics, but it will basically end with women and sex, whether they are married or unmarried, but from different angles. They are often able to get the ultimate satisfaction from this topic, and the first two topics end up pointing to this ultimate topic.

This topic, it seems, is like women talking together about "my mother-in-law is bad, my husband is great, and my children are extremely smart", which has a fatal attraction to men.

However, his classmates are a little different, they always like to talk about some metaphysical topics, what is life? How can life be more fulfilling and meaningful? What kind of life is considered successful? That's what they love to talk about.

Actions outside the scope of these metaphysics are metaphysical, private, and irrelevant. When you go to the toilet, no one wants to ask, this kind of thing is not interesting to anyone except yourself.

This is true for most things in everyday life. How you make money, whether you love your wife or not, whether you have an affair or not, all this is just your own business, and like going to the toilet, you have no interest in others.

This is also a big difference between men and women in their approach to love. Whether it's an affair or having fun outside, women absolutely can't tolerate it and will be furious. However, in the circle of men, it is much more tolerant, and men generally just tease, ridicule, or send a kind reminder.

Han Mengping is a tall and thin man, and he has a wife. Relying on his talent, he had a hot fight with the female editor of the publishing house. He said: I think men should still focus on their careers. To put it bluntly, it is to make good money. As for the main points of private life, it is not important and should not even be talked about more. I don't want anyone to come and find out and disturb my private life. We don't want to go to the toilet with others, so why should we bother with other people's personal affairs? If we think of our private life as if we were going to the toilet, then there would be no problem. It's completely pointless, it's just satisfying some people's curiosity. ”

"Well said, Mengping, you said it so well. You don't want others to disturb your private life, but if someone is eye-catching with Zhang Limei, do you want to jump? If he pursues it any further, are you going to kill someone? Zhang Li is Han Mengping's wife.

"Of course, these are two different things! If someone were to go wild in my room, as a man, of course I would have a seizure. There's a place for everyone. ”

"This means that if someone falls in love with Zhang Li in private, you don't mind?" Mei Liguang continued to tease.

Mei Liguang's attitude was a bit mocking, because he had chatted with Zhang Li once, but he was immediately and seriously stopped by Han Mengping.

"Then I'll have to mind. Between me and Zhang Li, if anyone wants to get in with it, I have to kill him. Han Mengping said fiercely.

The tall, thin and pimple-ridden Tang He is more traditional than the obese Mei Li Guanglai. He said: "Mengping, you have a strong sense of possessiveness, and even a little selfish. Also, as an aside, you take success too seriously. Ever since I decided to join the military, I have had little contact with the world, and I don't think success is so important, it's much simpler in the end. It's too tiring to just pursue success, you look at the housing prices in Shenzhen, where there is an end! Now I know how eager people are to succeed, to get ahead, everyone is measured by how many apartments they have, and society has changed! Of course, people like you think that it is easier to succeed in marriage with a woman. So in your opinion, love is a kind of high-relationship promoter between you and Zhang Li, and it is something that should make you successful. If you don't succeed, you'll have to start eyeing women, just like Brother Li Guang. People like you and Zhang Li who have been married, just like the suitcase in the airport, Zhang Li's suitcase says 'Mrs. Han Mengping', she seems to belong to someone's suitcase. A fulfilling life also requires a warm family. A perfect life also requires the prosperity of children and grandchildren. All of this is based on success, and success is the central axis of everything. ”

Han Mengping seemed a little angry when he heard this. He's a little proud of not going with the flow. And yet, he is so contradictory.

Still, he did want to succeed.

"That's true, you can't live without money." Mei Liguang said, "We are all people with good family backgrounds. But here, there is no money, no financial freedom. Neither thought can be free. I agree. But in my private life, I have a different opinion. You can remove the labels as much as you want. We are free to talk to anyone, so why can't we court any woman we like? ”

"Such a casual young man, I don't seem to be in the same era as you." Zhang Haifei answered.

"Whatever? Why not? I don't understand why sleeping with the same woman is more harmful to a woman than dancing with her, and that is just an exchange of feelings, instead of an exchange of thoughts. So why not? Mei Li Guang said.

"What's the difference between that and animals?" Han Mengping said.

"Why not? What's wrong with animals? Are animals worse than the neurotic, fame-seeking humans? Mei Liguang asked rhetorically.

"But we're not animals." Han Mengping said.

"Yes, we have souls. I have some astronomical questions to calculate, which are more important to me than life and death. Sometimes indigestion gets in the way of my work, and even more so when I'm hungry. In the same way, the hunger of the body also gets in the way of me, what should I do? Mei Li Guang retorted.

"I guess you're overindulgent, not indigestion." Han Mengping smiled and said sarcastically.

"It's not! I don't overdo it. There is also little indulgence. Excessive can be controlled. But you don't eat at all, you want to starve me to death?

"Then you can get married, brother." Han Mengping said.

"How do you know I'm fit to get married? Nowadays, there are more and more men and women who do not get married, and marriage is not for everyone. Getting married makes me anxious. Mei Li Guang explained.
