Chapter 15 Wealth
chatted with Peng Chen until more than 9 o'clock, discussed some important strategic plans for the future, and then Lin Ming took a taxi home.
From the rebirth in May to the present, the original customized goals have almost reached the point of completion. Whether it is to take the No. 1 middle school entrance examination, or to make a music website or engage in an Internet technology company. Although they are all in their infancy, at least they show that they are already working on it step by step.
Lin Ming is not greedy, many things can be achieved, and if they can't be done, they are not reluctant. But things must be done, and if you do it, you may not succeed, but if you don't do it, you will definitely not succeed.
The tree has been planted, and now it is just waiting for it to blossom and bear fruit.
The next day, Lin Ming received a call from Cao Yingwu, a teenager who had been following him since junior high school, and said on the phone that he wanted to invite him to dinner.
Lin Ming teased: "Why did you remember to invite me to dinner, did you have something to ask me?" ”
Cao Yingwu's home landline, in that era, except for the three famous schools, which gathered the children of rich families and high-ranking officials in the province, all students in ordinary high schools did not necessarily have a mobile phone.
It may be that the landline used was afraid that there were family members around, Cao Yingwu couldn't say it clearly, and whispered in a squeaky voice: "Someone has a birthday, let's go over and have a meal together." Anyway, don't eat for nothing, don't eat for nothing, a blessing thing. Okay, let's meet at the Left Bank Western Restaurant at 5 o'clock this afternoon. ”
It's really a word full of a sense of age. Cao Yingwu didn't give Lin Ming a chance to refuse, and hung up the phone after finishing speaking. However, before the landline microphone was put down, Lin Ming still heard someone over there impatiently say, "How is it, did he agree?" ”
It was a girl's voice, and it sounded a little familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was. Lin Ming muttered: "Who is this, could it be that someone in the fourth middle school wants to confess to me?" It's really handsome, and there are a lot of troubles. ”
Anyway, Cao Yingwu will not harm him, as an old man who has come all the way in junior high school, his relationship is also good, he is the best brother except for the Eight King Kongs, he was born and died several times, and he will definitely not betray him. Lin Ming didn't care in the past, but if it was really a girl who liked him for her birthday and wanted to confess to him, it would be a headache.
You have to choose a gift.
Lin Ming didn't think much about it, bought a beautifully packaged gift at the boutique in the afternoon, and took a taxi to the Left Bank Western Restaurant. This restaurant is an earlier western restaurant in Yuncheng, located on Binjiang Road in Hexi, because the west bank of the river is just the left bank, so the name of this western restaurant is very literary and artistic, attracting many literary and artistic youth.
When I arrived, it was close to 5 o'clock, and I saw a lot of people gathered at the gate of the left bank from a distance, all of them girls, dressed in colorful clothes, all young and fashionable, very tasteful. Some of them said they were carrying bouquets of flowers, while others were carrying gifts, apparently birthday wishes for someone.
Lin Ming's sharp eyes saw Zou Jie in the crowd, Zou Jie was Cao Yingwu's girlfriend, standing with some girls, but she was obviously not the protagonist, because everyone did not talk around her, which showed that the center of people was not her. Some of them are in groups, and some are alone. Regardless of the circle, everyone stood at the gate of the left bank and did not enter, and it was obvious that the owner of the birthday had not yet arrived at the scene. However, Zou Jie's words show that the person who celebrates her birthday is likely to be her friend, not Cao Yingwu or his friend's friend, because after Cao Yingwu has Zou Jie, except for Su Wenqi, there are almost no female friends, and it is impossible to participate in other girls' birthdays.
"With such a big show, it won't be Su Wenqi's rich girl. No, didn't she say she had a birthday last time? Took my books away. Lin Ming muttered in his heart, since the last time he said goodbye in the Western restaurant, he and Su Wenqi hadn't seen each other for nearly a month.
If you think about it carefully, I don't know if Su Wenqi's article passed the audition of the New Concept Essay Contest. Anyway, he received the notice of the audition, and in January next year, that is, before the Chinese New Year, he has to go to Zhonghai to participate in the semi-finals.
There was no Cao Yingwu in the crowd, and these people didn't know anyone except Zou Jie and Lin Ming, so they didn't go over to say hello, so they leaned on the side of the street not far away and waited.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that he, a boy, stood next to more than a dozen girls, naturally as conspicuous as fireflies in the night.
A girl noticed him and said to the girl next to him, "Look, that person is so handsome." ”
"It's so melancholy."
"Is the school grass level good?"
"Is he also here for Boa's birthday dinner? You see he still has a gift in his hand. ”
"Lin Ming?"
The last voice was shouted by Zou Jie.
She and a few classmates from the fourth middle school heard the discussion next to them, and turned their heads to see the teenager leaning a few meters away. Say hello to him and beckon him to come over.
"He is Lin Ming, he couldn't see clearly on the stage that day, but he was so handsome when he saw that he was really handsome, and he sang beautifully."
"Haha, Yanzi and I have been to their 506 class and have seen it secretly outside."
"Are you so unashamed?"
The name of Lin Ming in the fourth middle school spread very widely in the fourth middle school. If in the past, he could only be regarded as a popular figure among the bastard students, but now he is almost the object of attention of the whole school. Not only up to the principal, but down to the students. Even many teachers have heard of his name.
Many people say that there is a singer in the fourth middle school, who not only writes his own songs, but also sings and cries thousands of people on the day of the graduation party. The video and fame once spread outside the school, and for a time it became a hot topic of discussion among high school students in the city.
It's just that information is not developed in this era, and many people only hear its name and don't see it. Even if there are videos on the Internet, not to mention that there are only a few people who can access the Internet, even if they see it on the Internet. But because it is far away after dark, even if you stand in front of someone who has watched the video, you may not be able to recognize him.
After all, this is not an Internet celebrity era.
Seeing Zou Jie beckoning him over, Lin Ming wiped his nose and walked over with his head down. Either say that a woman is a sheep and a group of women is a tiger. When Lin Ming walked past this group of warblers and Yanyan, they all looked at him with their eyes open, and some people even teased him: "Little handsome guy, get to know each other and make friends." ”
"Slut, you can't walk when you see a handsome guy."
"That's it, a few days ago, I said that I liked a senior in the third year of high school, and I changed my mind in just a few days."
"You guys are embarrassed to talk about me, you're different?"
This group of girls giggled and made a mess. Lin Ming looked at his nose and nose, smelled the fragrance of these beautiful girls, and walked all the way to the team on the side of No. 4 Middle School. Although he didn't know any of Zou Jie's classmates, everyone was from the fourth middle school, and he had a little sense of belonging.
It's the end of August, and the sun isn't as hot as midsummer. The wind whistling in the distance mixed with the smell of mountains and forests from the green mountains drifted over the city, the years were mottled in the Yanghe River, and in front of them were a group of young girls.
Lin Ming smiled as he watched them laugh wantonly, living carefree and carefree. Only those who have had youth understand the joys and troubles of this age, but it is the ignorance at that time that has created how much we should miss this happy time in our future life.
Lin Ming turned his head and asked Zou Jie: "Whose birthday is it today, do I know each other?" ”
Since Cao Yingwu called himself, Zou Jie must know, but he doesn't know if Zou Jie is the girl on the phone. But if you recall the sound carefully, it is plausible. And he just heard others say that the person who celebrates today's birthday is called Bao'er, but he has never heard of the name Bao'er.
Zou Jie glanced at him strangely and said, "You know, you'll know when she comes." ”
Before Lin Ming could continue to ask.
Suddenly, the roar of a locomotive sounded, and several cool motorcycles flicked their tails and stopped at the door of the western restaurant. The girls looked at each other and exclaimed.
The leader wore a jacket and a motorcycle helmet, turned the key after parking the car, pushed the helmet with both hands to take off the helmet, shook his hair in a chic manner, and then flirted it, and when he looked back at these girls, these girls felt handsome. Lin Ming smiled, this person was Su Wenqi.
Su Wenqi's appearance on a motorcycle is indeed handsome, and even in later generations, it is definitely synonymous with style and arrogance. What's more, in this era of underdeveloped information, coupled with her cool black jacket and beautiful hair, not to mention that men will be thrilled when they see it, even girls can't suppress the exclamation in their hearts. You must know that in two years, those neutral supergirls will be popular, but it is not for nothing. It can even be said that if Su Wenqi suddenly pulls one of the girls in this group of girls and asks for a lily, it is estimated that most people will be happy. This has nothing to do with sexual orientation, just one word is highlighted - handsome, and it's over.
Su Wenqi got out of the car and enjoyed the general treatment of a star, and everyone stepped forward to hug her. Some of them call her Kiki, and some call her Bao'er. It wasn't until this time that Lin Ming knew that Bao'er was Su Wenqi's milk name, just like Gong Jie's milk name was Mao Lituo. Only her childhood playmates would call her that way.
Behind Su Wenqi, there were several other motorcyclists who were the same. There are men and women, all of whom are friends Su Wenqi met when she was playing with motorcycles. These people formed a locomotive fleet, and only a few people who had a good relationship with Su Wenqi were eligible to be invited by her to the birthday party.
These people surrounded Su Wenqi into the western restaurant, logically speaking, the left bank western restaurant business is booming, it is the evening, countless couples come here to taste the romantic candlelight dinner, but the strange thing is that there is no one inside.
All the waiters stood at the door in two rows, and a middle-aged man in a housekeeper's dress stood in front of his head with a serious expression, and the moment Su Wenqi came in, they bowed at the same time and said, "Happy birthday, eldest lady." ”
Everyone is behind Su Wenqi, Lin is obviously inconspicuous, and Su Wenqi didn't know what to smoke last time, so she lied to herself on her birthday and took away her "The Old Man and the Sea". As a result, today is her birthday, and the Left Bank Western Restaurant is still her family's property, and she is worthy of being the daughter of the richest people in Cloud City.
Is.
Ostentatious.
