Chapter 33: Greed

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, He Dongfan went to Lin Ji's house.

After dinner, he was called to the study by Lin Ji alone and asked him what his plans for the future were.

He Dongfan still remembers that after filling in the college entrance examination, Lin Ji said that he would give him another chance to choose in his junior year.

said that he chose the opportunity, but in fact, he retreated from the young stunned man.

But this time, Lin Ji was wrong, and He Dongfan chose his own major.

In this regard, Lin Ji did not directly oppose it.

He told him that he chose the road ahead without knowing the way forward, and that the other was the road to the open village.

He was majestic and self-explanatory, and he did not mention a word of rebuttal, and he sang against it every word.

He Dongfan was moved with emotion: "Uncle, I know that you are for my good and treat me as my own son, then you should understand me, the road you arranged for me is not suitable for me." ”

“……”

He also knew the reason: "My classmates and I signed up for this IOI competition, you can understand that this is an international competition, which is very authoritative and important in the computer industry, and if you win the award, you can even get a graduate degree in a famous foreign university." ”

Be quiet for two seconds.

He Dongfan spoke again: "Uncle, I take it seriously." ”

Lin Ji didn't say much, saying that it would look at the results.

He Dongfan knew this 'result', referring to the IOI match result.

He Dongfan was on the morning of the 27th to Yuhe, together with Jiang Yun.

He helped Jiang Yun carry his luggage to the door of the girls' dormitory, and then returned to 202.

In addition to Xu Jing, the 202 members have arrived, including supernumerary member Ding Tianxiang.

Because today is He Dongfan's birthday, everyone automatically attributed his birthday to the team building activities at the beginning of the new semester, and set to eat grilled fish outside in the evening.

He Dongfan simply cleaned up and changed into a loose and light sports suit.

The sportswear is made of waterproof material, black clothes and black pants, and the front placket has a contrasting white zipper.

But when you wear it on He Dongfan, you feel clean, neat and vibrant.

Probably because he was born with good body proportions, it became more and more obvious after the age of twenty. 187 superior height, broad shoulders and chest, strong waist and long legs.

A living hanger.

He Dongfan raised his chin slightly, and pulled the zipper to his head: "Remember to send it to Xu Jing where you eat." ”

Li Baizi was watching a movie, and he had no time to answer, so he made an 'OK' gesture.

He reacted, turned his head to look at He Dongfan, saw his helmet on the table, and asked, "Are you going to ride again?" ”

Without waiting for He Dongfan to answer, Li Baizi: "Isn't it, brother, it's only the first day, aren't you tired?" ”

He Dongfan took the helmet, threw it lightly, and raised his eyebrows: "See you later!" ”

Regarding He Dongfan's hobby of cycling, Li Baizi once asked, and his answer at the time was: breathe fresh air and look around.

The members of 202 were also interested, so they rented a car and went on a ride with him, but they were so tired that they didn't go anymore.

Besides, in recent years, the air quality has declined, the smog index has been rising, and the urban area is full of car exhaust, how can there be any fresh air?

Also, a jade and urban area, he has been riding for almost three years, what else is there to see?

They really don't understand He Dongfan's hobby, he is so busy with classes and research that he doesn't have a lazy time, he can find time to ride.

He Dongfan has good physical strength, went around the second ring road of Yuhe City, and returned to school at less than four o'clock in the afternoon.

He called Li Baizi on the way back and asked Xu Jing if he had returned? Li Baizi said that it was all here, it was still early, and he was playing on the basketball court now.

He Dongfan didn't go back to the dormitory, and went directly to the basketball court.

Xu Jing, Li Baizi, Jiang Xin, and Ding Tianxiang are playing.

He Dongfan put down his helmet and took off his coat, which was a black, loose sleeveless vest with shoulders, revealing the muscular lines of his arms.

He hung his coat next to the basketball hoop and went on the court.

He snatched the ball from behind Jiang Xin, neatly bypassed Ding Tianxiang, made a layup in three steps, and scored.

Jiang Xin didn't wear glasses, and guessed that it was He Dongfan by looking at the figure and movements.

He was robbed of the ball and was upset: "Aren't you going to ride a bike?" How can you still jump? ”

He Dongfan stood under the basket, and after receiving the ball, he threw the ball to the ground and gave it out.

Li Baizi caught it, dribbled the ball a few times, and guarded against Xu Jing head-on, but he didn't pay attention to the ball and was snatched away by He Dongfan.

Li Baizi didn't struggle, he stood in place and panted: "Lao Tzu wondered, where did you get the energy day by day?" ”

He Dongfan dribbled the ball and retreated outside the two-point line, without any sense of fatigue, he jumped forward, showing his tiger teeth, and was arrogant: "Little garbage, don't accept it?" ”

The ball is thrown.

Depend on!

Off!

The basketball draws a parabola in the air, hits the edge of the basket, rolls twice, spins out, and falls.

Didn't go in.

Li Baizi looked at He Dongfan and thumbs it down: "Trash!" ”

Ding Tianxiang: "Trash! ”

Jiang Xin: "Trash! ”

Xu Jing took the ball that bounced over and lowered his head to dribble: "Trash!" ”

He Dongfan 'tsk' and ran: "Keep going!" ”

Half an hour later, Li Baizi looked at his watch: "It's almost five o'clock, go back to wash and eat?" ”

Everyone nodded and went down to drink water.

Next to the court, there were girls standing in twos and threes.

They have long been accustomed to this phenomenon, who let them have a perfect score player with a full buff stack.

However, Xu Jing's attitude of ignoring people is consistent, which makes people shy away.

But there are always a few who have to hit the muzzle.

For example, Jiang Yun.

She also has the advantage of being close to the water and getting the moon first, and she always uses the reason to find He Dongfan.

He Dongfan sat on the stone steps, his legs propped up, his body leaned back, his left hand supported the stone steps behind, and his right hand picked up the mineral water, and raised his head to pour it into a big gulp.

He watched Jiang Yun walk over with a girl in his arms, and he also carried a few bottles of water in his hand.

Xindao: Come on, come again.

Jiang Yun bought five bottles of energy water, gave them one by one, and finally walked to He Dongfan and sat down next to him, and handed it to him: "Huh!" ”

He Dongfan didn't answer, glanced at her, and gave a 'say if you have something to say' look.

Jiang Yun was not in a hurry to say something, and screwed the bottle cap diligently.

She was unfavorable, she couldn't unscrew it, and bent over to exert all her strength.

He Dongfan was speechless and stretched out his hand.

Jiang Yun handed him the water.

'Wow' and it opened.

He Dongfan took two sips, glanced at her, and sighed: "Why are you here again?" ”

Obviously, when she returned to Beidu at the end of last semester, she also said that she would give up Xu Jing.

Jiang Yun glanced at Xu Jing's direction and lowered her voice: "I figured it out during the Chinese New Year, didn't he have a girlfriend?" Shouldn't I show my charm? ”

He Dongfan laughed: "You are reasonable." ”

The corners of Jiang Yun's mouth curled, she moved closer, and discussed with He Dongfan in a low voice: "He Dongfan, is it your birthday today?" Do you want to have dinner tonight? Bring one with me, and I'll make up for your birthday gift in a few days. ”

He Dongfan frowned: "How do you know?" ”

"Ding Tianxiang said."

"I can't bring it." He refused.

"It's just a meal, why can't you bring it?" Jiang Yun raised his voice and asked, twisted weakly to the side, rubbing his temples, "I'm so dizzy, I'm so hungry and low blood sugar." ”

He Dongfan watched her performance and sneered: "You stay here and slowly faint, Lao Xu won't carry you, and neither will I." ”

After speaking, He Dongfan stood up and wanted to leave.

Jiang Yun can't see the road, and she habitually doesn't force it, but she still has something to do today.

She then stood up: "Wait a minute! ”

He Dongfan: "??? ”

Jiang Yun smiled as if her face had changed and beckoned behind He Dongfan.

He Dongfan turned around and looked, and a girl came over, it was the girl who had just come with Jiang Yun.

The girl and He Dongfan glanced at each other, pursed their lips and staggered their gaze, and raised their hands to pin the hair from their ears.

The girl approached, her height was about He Dongfan's shoulder, she didn't look at him, and greeted him: "Hello, senior." ”

He Dongfan didn't know why, and nodded slightly: "Okay, okay." ”

Jiang Yun enthusiastically put the girl's arm on the shoulder: "He Dongfan, this is our sophomore sister in the department, her name is Wen Xin, you add a QQ." ”

He Dongfan propped up his eyelids, the sweat on his forehead fell, he raised his hand to wipe it off, the roots of his ears were slightly red, and he stepped back stiffly: "I'm sorry, senior sister, I didn't bring my mobile phone." ”

After speaking, he turned around, put his arm in the circle, and beckoned: "Let's go, go back to the dormitory." ”

This place is not suitable for staying.

Everyone went back to the dormitory and showered one by one.

There are too many people to come. He Dongfan took the clothes to Ding Tianxiang's bedroom to wash.

Ding Tianxiang took a shower and pointed in: "You go." ”

He Dongfan took his clothes in, covered the door, and took off his clothes neatly.

Ding Tianxiang was outside the door: "Lao He, Jiang Yun sent me a message, saying that he wanted to be with us at night." ”

He Dongfan didn't hesitate at all: "Don't take her!" ”

After speaking, the sound of 'bang-la-la' water sounded.

In less than ten minutes, the sound of the water stopped.

Ding Tianxiang snuggled at the door and coughed: "Lao He? ”

He Dongfan put on clothes: "Talk about things." ”

"Well, can you lend me some money?" Ding Tianxiang said, "1,000 yuan, I will pay you back next month." ”

"Okay!"

He Dongfan came out and wore a pair of black and gray stitched pocket cargo pants, a white hooded sweatshirt with a slightly loose neckline, and the silver necklace chain around his neck could be seen.

He took the change of clothes and kicked his slippers and left: "I'll go to the ATM to get the money for you after dinner at night." ”

Ding Tianxiang responded: "Thank you." ”

He Dongfan beckoned, indicating that it was okay.

He went back to his bedroom, threw his dirty clothes into a bucket, and stood on the veranda and wiped a few handfuls of his short wet hair.

No more dripping.

He went back to his bed and put on his shoes.

A pair of black and white low-top vintage sneakers.

Before leaving, Xu Jing reminded everyone that the temperature difference between day and night in Yuhe this month is large, so let you bring a coat.

He Dongfan casually took an oversized black and gray spliced motorcycle jacket and carried it in his hand.

The grilled fish shop is on the fourth floor of the commercial plaza next to the main entrance of the school.

The grilled fish shop is decorated in a punk style, with stone walls, steel chandeliers, and colorful flowing light bars, like a bar.

The music is also loud.

They sat at a small round table across the window, and could see the flow of people coming and going outside.

He Dongfan's birthday, do the east.

He took the menu and ordered a garlic grilled fish, a spicy grilled fish, added sweet potato flour, potatoes, lotus root slices and other side dishes, and ordered a fried crispy pork, a cucumber, and a marinated platter.

And then there's wine.

Plum wine, limoncello, beer.

The grilled fish has not yet been served, and it has already been drunk.

After the grilled fish is served and eaten, we start drinking and talking.

From Xu Jing and He Dongfan's IOI competition, to the internship plan for the next semester, to the emotional life...

Finally, everyone began to play with the bottle, and whoever pointed at the mouth of the bottle would answer the truth.

In the third round, the bottle mouth pointed to He Dongfan impartially.

After everyone coaxed for a while, they couldn't think of what questions to ask him, after all, He Dongfan is a rectum, and he usually says everything.

After thinking for a while, Li Baizi snapped his fingers: "Lao He, what do you regret the most?" ”

He Dongfan was pulling the fish that had been roasted in the pot, and when he heard this question, he put down his chopsticks and thought about it.

Regret?

Regret...

Halfway, he leaned back lazily with his hands in the pockets of his sweatshirt, looked up at the fuchsia light bar slightly, and said in a calm tone: "I regret that I shouldn't have bought roasted sweet potatoes that day." ”

There was silence for a while.

Ding Tianxiang: "Cut~ What is your answer?" Perfunctory, huh? Drink and drink! ”

After saying that, fill his glass with wine.

He Dongfan smiled silently, sighed, sat up straight, stretched out his right hand to pick up the wine glass and raised his head, and drank it all.

The plum wine finish is sweet.

But there are some things that cannot be recalled, and when you think about them, they are astringent.

Like that morning.

If he hadn't gone to buy roasted sweet potatoes, he wouldn't have missed Ning Xin.

At least the last time we met, it wouldn't be her crying.

He really regretted it.

I regretted it, and when I thought about it, my heart ached for a while.

He Dongfan lowered his eyes, and his eyes were very dim under the colorful lights.

His fingers twirled the glass slightly, and the shadow was brilliantly folded.

In fact, he sometimes thinks that if he doesn't meet her again, he won't meet her, as long as she is well, wherever she is.

However, it is probably human nature to be greedy.

While persuading yourself not to be attached, you are persistent.

He Dongfan was already uncomfortable, but the grilled fish restaurant suddenly cut a song, and the lyrics were ridiculous.

"I miss you so much all of a sudden"

"Where will you be"

"Have a happy life or be wronged"

"I miss you so much all of a sudden"

"Suddenly sharp memories"

"Suddenly blurry eyes..."

He Dongfan reached out and took a bottle of beer and bit it directly with his teeth.

Gotta drink more, he thought, or he would be a little out of control.

The beer is chilled, served next to a hot grilled fish, and the bottle is full of water.

He Dongfan took two sips of the bottle, and was stimulated by the bitterness of the brewed wheat that made him squint his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the spinning bottle on the table pointing at him again.

He was speechless, leaning back as if he had no bones, with an impatient expression, as if to say: Stop grinding! Ask!

They really didn't know what to ask, so they discussed it side by side.

He Dongfan looked straight and looked out the window.

Outside the window is the corridor of the mall, which is brightly lit, which is completely different from the inside of the grilled fish shop.

There is a promotional bubble tea shop opposite, and the clerk in a doll costume is soliciting customers.

Because the new semester has started, there are quite a few flyers.

The flow of people who came and went was polite to take the leaflets, only one girl was not very smooth, and there were very few people who handed out the leaflets, and there were two glances and returned to her.

The girl wore a white peaked cap, loose white leggings on the bottom, a light gray cropped sports vest on the top, and a wide white sports jacket with 'TWO fighting' printed on the back.

Her coat was open, and a small amputated waist was looming as the flyer was being handed out.

She handed out the leaflet repeatedly hit the wall, and seemed to be a little discouraged, turned to lean against the glass fence of the hallway, her shoulders drooped slightly, and looked down at her toes.

After looking at it for a while, she raised her hand to remove the cap from her head, and her silky black hair fell apart.

She tilted her head slightly, looked up to the left and right, and fanned the peaked cap in her hand.

"Whoa-la-"

Several empty beer bottles beside the small round table were knocked down by He Dongfan's flustered and rapid movements.

He stepped on one of the wine bottles, and his feet were unsteady, but fortunately he quickly put his hand on the ground and did not fall down.

Before everyone could react, he had already stood up and rushed out quickly.
