I'm going to start pretending (Part I)
The next day, October 2, Liang Jingyuan drove to a class reunion, because Mo Ning was inconvenient to go, so he and Zhang Zhiwei read at home. On the second day of the National Day holiday, most relatives have visited, which is suitable for high school classmates to get together, talk about their feelings about military training, complain about strange roommates, share new life experiences and pretend to be forced.
Liang Jingyuan didn't wear any brand-name clothes, not for nothing, but for no reason. Deliberately pretending to be forced will only make people unhappy, and pretending to be inconspicuous is a real master.
The place to eat is the restaurant where everyone gathers after graduating from high school, and it is an acceptable distance for everyone, and there are not as many people attending the party this time as there were when they graduated, and there are more than ten people, so a small box is enough.
It's human nature to show off and be in the limelight. As soon as he entered the door, Liang Jingyuan saw Liu Chen sitting on it, muttering something, Liu Chen's family did have a little money in his previous life, and he also opened a company to bring goods later, and made a lot of money, but Liang Jingyuan knew that many of his forced people were forcibly pretended, and he rented a luxury car at class reunions, but in fact, he drove a relatively cost-effective Regal to work.
The first step of slapping his face and pretending to be a criminal, take the initiative to greet everyone, lower his posture, Liang Jingyuan entered the door, and chatted with the classmates present for a while, and praised him for being handsome if it was obvious that he was deliberately dressed. Girls, just praise the beauty of unity. As for pretending to be a criminal, agree, express approval to satisfy his vanity.
After taking a seat, the first person to initiate the topic was Yu Miaoling.
"It's hard for everyone to get together, so let's talk about what we learned in the first month of college. Let me start with the fact that I am now the class president and the secretary of our student council. Yu Miaoling has always been more motivated, and of course she is showing her achievements at this stage.
Most of the others are talking about the environment of their own school, the personality of their roommates or something, when it was Liang Jingyuan's turn, Liang Jingyuan simply introduced the school environment, and casually said what he and Zhang Zhiwei liked to do at school.
After talking about the recent situation, everyone talked about hobbies, this issue is actually very level, hobbies can reflect the consumption level and can also reflect the social circle and career planning.
Yu Miaoling said that she likes to participate in the management of the class and the tasks of the student union, and she plans to take what certificate, which belongs to the kind of person who has a clear plan.
There are also a few boys who say fitness, a few girls say photography, fitness is a hobby that attracts the attention of girls, photography is interesting after all, often take materials to explain that there are more places to go, and fitness classes and photography are relatively expensive hobbies.
Liu Chen has been preparing his perfect speech, he has learned a lot about the characteristics of luxury cars in advance, and he plans to pretend to be a big one.
"I like cars, I went to college in Lin'an, and I usually like to drive and play with friends." Having his own car in his freshman year means that the family conditions are very good, and then he loves to drive out to play, which means that he has a rich social network, and Liu Chen just wants to show off.
Liu Chen observed around, no one spoke, and put the Porsche key he bought on the table.
"It's a shame I didn't drive here today, otherwise I wouldn't be able to drink with everyone." Most of the students at the banquet have just received their licenses, or are taking the exam, regardless of gender, and they have cast envious glances.
Liang Jingyuan looked at Liu Chen, let him brag, and he looked at Liu Chen and smiled.
"Come on, let's have a drink." Liu Chen pretended to be cool, and beckoned everyone to drink. But he was very unhappy to see that Liang Jingyuan was not envious but smiled strangely, although Liang Jingyuan had this attitude of smiling and listening to everyone today, but he pretended to be forced like this, and Liang Jingyuan did not react at all.
"Lao Liang, why don't you drink and don't give face to your classmates."
"No, no, my car is downstairs, I can't drink, I'm afraid of the traffic police." Liang Jingyuan deliberately set up a trap for Liu Chen, not saying that he was driving, saying that the car was downstairs, giving Liu Chen the illusion that he was riding an electric car.
"Lao Liang, electric cars are not interesting, you look at the Porsche brand and performance indicators have always been very good."
"Lao Liu, you're right, but I still prefer the Passat, the appearance design is stable and dignified and easy to drive, the chassis is more stable, the interior is also good-looking, and it is more cost-effective.... Lao Liu, you tell me what kind of model your Porsche is, and what advantages it has, I will refer to it." Liang Jingyuan took Liu Chen's words, but Liu Chen did not answer Liang Jingyuan's question. Liang Jingyuan introduced the performance of the car in great detail, which was in contrast to Liu Chen's only saying the brand and not the model, making others doubt the authenticity of Liu Chen's words.
Liu Chen was very unhappy, because some people were already shaken about whether he had a Porsche, but he still had to pretend to be imposing
"Lao Liang, my dad casually brought me the car that he didn't drive at home, and I really didn't know so much, but don't set your sights on the Passat, pay more attention to luxury cars." Liu Chen forcibly explained these words.
Liang Jingyuan watched Liu Chen say this and simply drank tea, smiled, tapped the edge of the cup with his fingers, and took a sip of tea from time to time~
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Liang Jingyuan took the initiative to break the ice, brought the topic to today's meal, and then drove a few classmates who had not participated in the topic much before to join the discussion, and soon Liang Jingyuan became the controller of the dinner topic.
The topic is under Liang Jingyuan's control, and it is basically a topic that everyone can participate in recalling the past of high school, meals, and how to play today after the holidays. Almost everyone was full of food and drink, and Liang Jingyuan excused himself to go to the bathroom. After a while, Liu Chen saw that Liang Jingyuan had not come back yet, and began to use the topic to play.
"Lao Liang is also really, seeing that everyone has eaten almost enough, he said to go to the bathroom, and they all said AA and escaped the order." Liu Chen said in a weird way, and then shouted, "Waiter, pay!" ”
After a while, the waiter walked in with a fruit plate and said to Liu Chen, "The gentleman who just went to the bathroom has already settled the bill, and ordered two fruit plates, saying that everyone will relieve hangover and relieve greasy." ”
Everyone looked at Liu Chen silently, and Liu Chen was embarrassed, so he could only lower his head. After a while, Liang Jingyuan came back and continued to chat with everyone for a few words, and Hu Hongwei said that everyone had said AA in advance for today's meal.
"Oh, I ran into something yesterday, as you know, and I was mistaken for a bomber by everyone. I haven't watched the group all the time, and the meal money is a total of xxxx. ”
After the dismissal, everyone walked to the door of the hotel together, Liang Jingyuan took out the car keys, pressed the Passat in the parking space next to him, and made a sound, and then said to the classmates around him, "Does anyone want to go to the People's Square Station?" I'm dropping by. ”
Only Hu Hongwei said that he was on the way, but someone asked. "Liang Jingyuan, let's go to the train station on the 6th, can you help with the luggage, Weiwei is also a ticket for the sixth, it should be on the way."
"I'm sorry, I'm going to meet a leader of Yanjing on the 5th of my entrepreneurial project, I have to leave tomorrow, and I will definitely have a chance next time."
After Liang Jingyuan refused, he got into the car and started the engine and ran away.
Everyone left behind was stunned, Liang Jingyuan started a business in college, and he had to go back to Yanjing tomorrow when he was busy, and said that his college life was average; He didn't drink because he really drove here, and he couldn't have bought it with the money he earned from starting a business in college, right? He also went to buy it first, and he was polite to everyone when he ate.
Liu Chen scolded in his heart, "Holy shit, I got it for him!" ”
Hu Hongwei was in Liang Jingyuan's car, looking at Liu Chen's expression in the rearview mirror, and laughing in the car.
"It's so cool for you to slap him in the face like this."
Liang Jingyuan took out the Chinese put on the car, lit one, and leisurely spit out a smoke ring.
"Why, my college experience is really average."
