Chapter 5 Class reunions, a society of drunken money
At this time, the light focused on the tall man in a black suit on the stage, who was that person?
"Hey, time is really unforgiving, even the bad young vice president has become a gentleman in a suit and leather shoes." The classmate next to him suddenly interjected.
"Vice President?"
"Shengyu, don't say you don't remember, it's the one who was born in a family of doctors, I heard that there are several industries under their family's name, and they are an out-and-out rich third generation."
After the applause, the man returned to his seat, and immediately surrounded by a group of women who were scratching their heads and posing. "Vice President Song, how are you doing lately?"
"The vice president was known as the first male god of the school...... Are you still single? ”
"You think beautifully, the vice president's personal conditions are so good, and he still lacks a girlfriend?"
In order not to be entangled by these secular women, the man could only go out of the crowd with a wine glass.
Entering society, it is a world where money is paramount, and men can buy everything, including women, with money and status; Women can hook rich and powerful men with their appearance and figure, and then use their money to satisfy their selfish desires. Song Lingrui has learned a lot over the years since he entered the society, and he has also seen a lot.
The older he gets, the more tactful he becomes, being respectful to his boss one second, and treating his subordinates the same way as his boss the next, in order to satisfy his lust for power. Different words can be said to different women, at the risk of being caught and raped by the original partner, using their own money to please and satisfy their lover, and then speaking coldly to the original partner after returning home, this is a man.
And women, who always want to live in the age of elegance, from those little girls without makeup, one by one with heavy makeup, scratching their heads, holding their "lofty ambitions" of wanting to marry into a wealthy family, learning how to dress sexier, how to seduce men more successfully, squeezing out one after another diamond kings who are obsessed with beauty, and seeking new goals, this is a woman.
"Vice President Song is still as popular as ever." Behind him, a man in a suit holding a red wine glass walked slowly towards him, and the sound of wine glasses colliding with wine glasses was particularly crisp.
"Each other, each other." Song Lingrui glanced at the burning women around him and sighed, "Bai Cheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" I heard that you were rated as a senior teacher not long ago, and you are proud of your workplace. ”
"It's okay, I'm proud in the workplace, and I'm disappointed in love."
"Oh?" Song Lingrui raised his eyebrows wickedly, "You also have times when you were dumped?" ”
"Don't mention it, I'm about to get married to my girlfriend, and she sees me with another ...... Alas......"
At this moment, a sarcastic smile appeared on Song Lingrui's face, and Lin Jiayi's figure gradually appeared in his mind, and then looked at the women around him, Lin Jiayi looked much fresher and more refined, according to Song Lingrui's words, although the kitten was a little irritable, it was also a beautiful woman when she was quiet.
Bai Cheng looked at Song Lingrui's smile, and couldn't help but get goosebumps: "Brother Rui, don't laugh, your classmates said that you didn't enter your father's hospital after graduation and came out to work by yourself, what do you think?" ”
"What do you think?" Song Lingrui took a sip of red wine and said slowly, "What my parents give is the background, and I am the one who fights the country." Since he started high school, Song Lingrui has always had a belief that he can rely on himself and never reach out to his parents, his pocket money will always be earned by doing odd jobs under his father, after going to college, most of the tuition fees are earned through his own part-time work and study, everyone doubts, obviously he is an out-and-out rich second generation, but he was lived by Song Lingrui as a poor disciple.
"The peach blossom luck around you must be constant, remember that there have been girls chasing you since the beginning of high school." Bai Cheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hiss...... I remember there was a girl, one level younger than us, who seemed to be quite good-looking, innocent, didn't you have feelings for her before? Why didn't they get together after that? ”
Silent.
Song Lingrui gave a weird smile, and blocked Bai Cheng's question again: "Okay, okay, don't ask, don't ask." ”
"After all this time, you're still so afraid of me?"
"Don't look at how badly I was beaten by you back then!" Bai Cheng retorted angrily, Song Lingrui back then, with his handsome appearance, made girls scream, and at the same time, the strength in the fight also discouraged many boys, "As a former bad boy, Brother Rui, you studied so well back then, why are you so strong at beating people?" ”
Song Lingrui glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and said coldly: "Learning is to allow you to talk to rough people calmly, and fighting is to make you talk to you calmly." Putting down the domineering words, Song Lingrui straightened the folds on his clothes and muttered, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”
Bai Cheng looked at his back, his eyes full of helplessness.
On the other side –
Lin Shengyu stayed by the side of his old classmates, watching them drink glass after glass of red wine, and really wondered if this was a class reunion or a paradise for alcoholics.
"Shengyu, why don't you drink it?" An old classmate who was drunk raised his hand and poured him a glass, Lin Shengyu pushed away the wine glass with a smile: "I came by car." In fact, because of Lin Shengyu's profession and the fact that he has been with Lin Jiayi and them all these years, he almost doesn't drink alcohol on weekdays.
A few drunk female classmates leaned on other men in a daze, and their palms were unconsciously touched, all of which was particularly dazzling in Lin Shengyu's opinion......
The night breeze was blowing quietly, the street lamps on the side of the street were dim, the hall was still noisy, and there was silence outside the door. Song Lingrui came out of the hall, took a deep breath of fresh air, and walked quickly to the driver's seat. He started the car and drove away.
"A person's commitment has become silence, who cares, go with the flow, all kinds of reluctance, but become free and easy......"
He unconsciously hummed the song he used to listen to most often, his mind was full of the figure of that person, after so long, he had too many girl friends, divided and combined, and never found the woman who really made his heart move.
Song Lingrui's eyes looked into the distance, and at this time, he slammed on the brakes and slowly drove the car to the side of the road......
"Hey...... Lin Jiayi! He shouted at the man carrying a large bag of snacks not far from the car window.
This familiar sound......
Lin Jiayi turned her head abruptly and looked at Song Lingrui with a look of pestilence: "Why are you ...... again" Because Lin Jialin suddenly shouted that she wanted to eat snacks, she hurriedly came out to buy it, how could she have thought that she could meet Song Lingrui.
Song Lingrui looked at her, only a thin coat was wrapped in pink pajamas, although it was just autumn, and it was windy tonight, the temperature at night was much lower than during the day. "Who made you wear so little?" There was a deep dissatisfaction in his tone.
"I'm just out to buy something, why ......"
"Alright, get in the car." Song Lingrui interrupted her impatiently,
Without saying a word, I opened the co-pilot's door for her, and when I saw that she was delayed, she was anxious, "Why are you stunned?" ”
Lin Jiayi was also anxious and shouted: "My house lives in front, why am I in your car?!" ”
In a word, all Song Lingrui's dreams were extinguished.
He couldn't help but clench his fists secretly: "Then you hurry back!" Why don't you wear much and run around! It's like a strict father's tone. Lin Jiayi stuck out her tongue at him, and ran away with her things.
What a damn ...... He was expecting Lin Jiayi to listen to his words and get in the car just now!
Turning the front of the car, Song Lingrui took one last look at the direction where Lin Jiayi was walking, and walked away.
Lin Jia, who returned home, couldn't help panting, after meeting Song Lingrui downstairs, she had run upstairs the whole time just now. I don't know why, since he opened his mouth to treat himself, he has always been very afraid of meeting this domineering man.
"Sister, you're back!" Lin Jialin's shout came from the living room, followed by a gentle male voice: "Jiayi, are you back?" ”
"Brother?" Lin Jiayi changed her shoes, walked over with her pocket, and looked at Lin Shengyu with a smile on the sofa with a surprised expression, "Why are you here?" ”
"Shouldn't I be at home......"
"It's not...... Didn't you go to a class reunion? ”
At the mention of tonight's party, the smile on Lin Shengyu's face became extremely stiff and regretful! He really regretted going to that party, it was literally the world of alcoholics! "They're going to play late, so I'll come back first."
Lin Jiayi nodded thoughtfully, and handed the pocket to Lin Jialin: "It's late, eat less snacks and hear me." ”
"You know it's late, too? Then you buy it for her. Lin Shengyu raised his eyebrows in disgust, and turned his gaze to Lin Jialin, "Linlin, the calories of biscuits are very high. ”
However, Lin Jialin has silently solved most of the package in the conversation between the brother and sister. Hearing her brother say this, Lin Jialin immediately threw the biscuits into her pocket obediently, and wiped her mouth in a panic: "Don't eat it!" ”
After the joke, it's time to get down to business. "You went to the hospital today, what did the doctor say?"
"He ......" As soon as Song Lingrui was mentioned, Lin Jiayi felt that a stomach full of anger was about to explode, doctor? What a doctor! is domineering and unreasonable, deciding what treatment to give her without authorization, and setting those inexplicable rules for her, it is simply playing with her feelings!
"Anyway, I'm going to start treatment tomorrow, don't worry." Lin Jiayi just said a few perfunctory words, and never mentioned Song Lingrui's matter, if Lin Shengyu knew that she was in such a beautiful life but was pressed by such a doctor, it would be strange if she didn't laugh at her!
Lin Shengyu looked at her, and a smile gradually appeared on his face, it is not difficult to see that after Lin Jiayi came back from the hospital today, she was much more energetic than some time ago, although she refused to admit it, but the blow brought to her by the loss of love could not be concealed, and now, he clearly felt that Lin Jiayi was slowly returning to her original appearance.
Late at night, the sisters were going to sleep, Lin Shengyu went back to the bedroom, before going to bed, he habitually picked up his mobile phone to refresh the latest news, on the hot search list, the name "double 㛄" is particularly eye-catching.
He knew that Lin Jiayi was rushing to write the manuscript some time ago, for the sake of the recently released novel, and he had also read the original manuscript of the novel, which tells the story of a high school girl who is infatuated with love and finally leaves with regret, and it is also the first novel with a tragic ending in all her works.
"Tragic ......"
Lin Shengyu repeated the word again.
Back then, his parents kept telling him and Lin Jialin, never to mention the past to Lin Jiayi, her memory has not been recovered, and being stimulated will only make the brain damage more serious, so that during that time, he was by Lin Jiayi's side, no matter how Lin Jiayi asked him about the previous things, he kept his mouth shut until now......
Lin Jiayi herself gave up looking for memories.
Isn't her whole life a tragedy?
Lin Shengyu sighed, turned off the lamp on the bedside table, and curled up in the quilt.
The night was already very deep, Lin Jiayi was lying on the bed in the most comfortable position, and her consciousness seemed to float out of the distance. She was fascinated by the scene in front of her, like in the back garden of the school, she was sitting in a gazebo, staring intently at the young man in white not far away.
I couldn't see the boy's face clearly, he was holding something similar to a can of fish in his hand, and he was crouching down to feed a cat of flowers. She shouted, but the boy didn't hear her, or didn't even see her, and remained in the same position.
She finally took a step, trotted all the way to the boy, and looked at the cat, perhaps because it had not eaten for a long time, it looked thin and dirty, but it did not affect her liking it. Without thinking, she reached for the cat, but the cat slapped her hand away with its paws and turned its head into the boy's arms.
"Is this your cat?"
The boy was silent.
She lowered her head shyly: "That...... I just love little animals like kittens and puppies...... So ......"
The young man stroked the kitten's fur and gradually turned his eyes to her......
