"Sisi! Why are you here?" the young man said in surprise.
Zhang Siyi was stunned for two seconds, and then vaguely searched for some young memories from the outline of the youth's facial features: "Brother Chengtian?"
"It's me, hahaha, you kid has a good memory, you can still call me by my name after not seeing each other for so many years!" The young man brought Zhang Siyi over happily and rubbed his head and patted his shoulder.
The other party is tall and majestic, with a heroic expression on his face. Zhang Siyi, who is only 1.76 meters tall, is like a chicken when he is hugged by the other party, and the whole person loses his focus.
However, Zhang Siyi was also very excited to see an old neighbor he hadn't seen for more than ten years here.
—Yes, this young man's full name is He Chengtian. Like Shen Hao and Qu Xiaomiao, they are childhood sweethearts who grew up in the same area as Zhang Siyi. He Chengtian is six years older than them, and he is not old enough to play with them, but he also has a younger sister named He Xueying, who is about the same age as Zhang Siyi, and has been playing with them since childhood, so They also called He Chengtian "brother" with He Xueying, and they were very close.
In Zhang Siyi's memory, He Chengtian was bold and charismatic. He was always accompanied by a group of attentive younger brothers who bowed their heads and served as ministers, as if they were the land owner and the king of children in their area.
Zhang Siyi was fortunate enough to play a few role-playing games with this group of big children. Usually, the petite person with thief looks and eyes played the Japanese bandit, and the decent and handsome person played the role of the Red Army. He Chengtian was the leader of the "Red Army".
As for Zhang Siyi, Shen Hao, and He Xueying, these little ones naturally couldn't participate in the war. They played the role of helpless civilians who were caught by the "Japanese aggressors" and locked in the grass pit, waiting for the "Red Army" "Salvation.
After being locked up, they go through a long wait, it could be half an hour, it could be an hour. They were huddled together, their hands and feet were tied, and they were frightened and scared, as if they were there, but when the "Red Army" shouted outside, their mood instantly turned into tension and excitement. Several little guys stretched their necks and kicked their legs, shouting "Brother Chengtian, help" "Brother Chengtian, help us"...
At this time, He Chengtian and the others couldn't rush in to rescue them. If the "Red Army" could defeat the "Japanese invaders" so easily, the game would not be fun.
In order to highlight the stalwart image of decent people, the insidiousness and despicability of the enemy must be deepened. The "Japanese invaders" will pick one or two out of the little ones they have captured, and "shoot and kill" them in front of the "Red Army". As He Chengtian's sister, He Xueying has always been the main target of the enemy to threaten He Chengtian.
Once, Zhang Siyi and He Xueying were selected to be taken out together and were forced to kneel in front of four or five "Red Army" who came to save them. The "Japanese invaders" held plastic guns and threatened behind them: "The people in front listen Come on, if you dare to take a step closer, these two people will die! Baga Yalu!"
Zhang Siyi and He Xueying shivered as if they were really going to be killed. They looked at the rescuer in front of them eagerly, and were excited to be in such an exciting scene.
He Chengtian burst into anger and shouted: "For the victory of the revolution! Xiao Ying! Brother, I'm sorry for you!" Then he gritted his teeth, shot his own sister and killed him, and then shouted again: "Brothers, rush! !!" The crowd around them were excited and shouted with red eyes, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Zhang Siyi and He Xueying fell to the ground "after their death", watching the next most exciting scene - the despicable "Japanese invaders" were running around under the attack of He Chengtian and the others. They were hit by bullets and collapsed with convulsions all over. He Chengtian was like a Hero, take his brothers to charge, save the remaining friends from the grass pit...
…
Although this kind of game is very mentally retarded now, He Chengtian has always left a very deep and tall impression on Zhang Siyi. In addition, the other party's grades in school are also very good. He is a three-good student every year. An example of worship.
If the concept of "idol" existed fifteen years ago, then the first person Zhang Siyi admired was not Gu Xiao, but He Chengtian.
It is a pity that the He family abandoned their office in the early years and made a fortune in business. The He Chengtian family moved away from the area where they lived when Zhang Siyi graduated from elementary school. In the next few years, Zhang's father was promoted, and Zhang's family moved twice in a row, so Zhang Siyi cut off contact with almost all his friends except Shen Hao.
He Chengtian hugged Zhang Siyi for a while and then asked with a smile, "Why haven't you changed for so many years?"
Zhang Siyi broke free from He Chengtian's arm, smoothed his messed up hair, and said with a smile, "It hasn't changed. My mother said yesterday that I have fat head and ears, and the longer I grow, the uglier I am."
He Chengtian laughed and asked, "Are your uncles and aunts all right? What are you doing now?"
When he met someone who knew the basics, Zhang Siyi didn't hide it, and said directly: "It's good, my dad is still the same, he can't rise to a certain extent, anyway, it's eight to four, drinking Drinking tea, planting flowers, and doing some official business. My mother was promoted to chief doctor last year and changed to an expert number. She no longer has to work night shifts, which is a little easier than before, but hospital work is very busy, you know. "
He Chengtian nodded and said with a smile, "your family is still so low-key, I don't know what's going on now unless you say it."
Zhang Siyi looked around and asked, "Where's Xiao Ying? Why didn't you see her?"
He Chengtian shook his head: "she didn't come, and I don't know what she was thinking. When I was a child, I saw Mingming and Xiaomiao had a good time, but this time Xiaomiao called her when she got married, but she didn't want to come at all. We're not going back to Ning for the New Year. Are you going to visit relatives in the city, my mother said that the neighbors will have a meeting, so I will be a representative to come and participate."
Going back to Ningcheng to visit relatives? Are they not here anymore? Zhang Siyi was a little puzzled, and was about to ask in detail, and heard He Chengtian again: "It's you, Xiao Ying mentioned it a few days ago, saying that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you a lot, I don't know if you will come this time. "
Zhang Siyi was moved for a while, compared to Qu Xiaomiao's situation where she couldn't even call her own name, He Xueying seemed to be more affectionate, so she was a childhood sweetheart! If he had known that Qu Xiaomiao was like this, he would have chosen not to come like He Xueying!
He Chengtian asked: "what about you? I met with the mouse once last year. He said that you went abroad to study. Are you graduating now? Are you a returnee? Where are you now?"
"I just came back from graduating this year," Zhang Siyi smiled embarrassedly, but he had seized the opportunity. He quickly took out a business card and handed it to He Chengtian, saying, "I am now working in Haicheng."
Before looking at the business card, He Chengtian was surprised: "You are also in Haicheng? Our family moved there after Xiao Ying went to high school. Now we live in the central area. Where do you work?"
Zhang Siyi opened his mouth wide. It seems that the He family is developing very well. He even moved to the central area of Haicheng, where a random house costs tens of millions!
"My company is also downtown!" he said.
Only then did He Chengtian look down at his business card, and then he was stunned: "You are also engaged in construction? Isn't this the same as what mice do?"
The mouse is Shen Hao's nickname, Zhang Siyi is so depressed, how can he be the same as a contractor when he studies architectural design? And obviously he studied architecture earlier.
Zhang Siyi quickly explained to He Chengtian the difference between himself and Shen Hao, He Chengtian nodded and said solemnly, "I remember when you said that, I have a classmate in high school who seems to be in the same major as you, and now he is also in Shanghai. The city engages in architectural design.”
Zhang Siyi asked curiously, "Who is it?"
"I said you don't know..." He Chengtian paused, then said again, "But it's not necessarily. My classmate is very legendary. He was the number one student in our college entrance examination in Ningcheng."
Zhang Siyi twitched the corners of his mouth: "...you're not talking about Gu Xiao, are you?"
He Chengtian was stunned: "how do you know?"
Zhang Siyi pointed to his business card: "Gu Xiao is the design director of Wujing, and now he is my direct supervisor."
He Chengtian glanced at Zhang Siyi's business card in shock again, scolded "Fuck", and said with emotion, "This world is too small!"
Zhang Siyi nodded vigorously, feeling too mysterious: "Brother Chengtian, are you and Gu Xiao classmates?"
"Yeah, what about the three-year high school classmates?" He Chengtian squinted his eyes, just mentioned it casually, and didn't want to reveal anything. Now that he knows that Gu Xiao is Zhang Siyi's boss, he can't help but want to complain, "He and Gu Xiao Those three years as a classmate were my nightmare!"
Zhang Siyi's curiosity was lifted: "What's the situation?"
He Chengtian sneered: "What else could be the case, his grades are so good, he will always be the first, no matter how difficult the test paper is, he can get full marks, and he can get rid of the second and second place in the mid-term and end-month unified examinations. Thirty points, sometimes I really feel like he's not human!"
Zhang Siyi remembered that his teachers had repeatedly praised Gu Xiao in front of them in the years he was studying, so he told He Chengtian about it and comforted him: "Actually, I'll get used to it, if he wasn't so good, he wouldn't be able to take the top spot. what."
He Chengtian looked at him with a ticklish look of hatred: "That's because you haven't been directly stimulated by him, you just listened to others, of course you don't know how terrible that feels, but I've been with him for three years. His classmate, and I'm the second in the fucking class. Do you know what it's like to be far behind every time you try your best? Besides, he feels very relaxed when he reads, and he doesn't even revise. Damn, so angry! So desperate!"
"..." Zhang Siyi's ears echoed inexplicably what his mother said - don't compare with the kind of people who are born to be favored by God. (=_=)
He Chengtian breathed a sigh of relief, tried to calm down his irritable mood, and said: "Actually, after so many years, it's still naive to care about ranking scores, and after entering the society, I gradually understand that grades can't represent everything. But every time I think about it, I still feel... Hey, you may not understand that feeling. After all, before I met him, I could say that I had never met any opponent in my studies. Later, because of him, I would take the senior high school entrance examination. Just leave the country.”
When he heard He Chengtian sigh, Zhang Siyi shuddered for a while. In fact, he understood that what He Chengtian wanted to say was "fear". He had also experienced it in Gu Xiao. No matter what you do, you feel that you can't surpass the other person.
He Chengtian looked at Zhang Siyi and inquired, "I heard from a former classmate that he was engaged in construction in Haicheng. How is he doing now?"
Zhang Siyi is not sure how to define "how" when He Chengtian asked, whether it is asking how much money you make or...
He Chengtian: "do you know how much his salary is?"
"Uh..." Zhang Siyi promised Gu Xiao not to disclose his income, but the person in front of him was the eldest brother next door he admired most in his childhood. Maybe this person will not have anything to do with Gu Xiao in the future. Besides, Gu Xiao's income So high, it would not be ashamed to say it, Zhang Siyi thought for a while before touching his nose and said, "I heard that his annual income is more than 800,000."
Unexpectedly, He Chengtian smiled awkwardly and said, "It's only more than 800,000. It doesn't look like it's doing well!"
Zhang Siyi: "… "(╯#°Д°)╯Fuck, more than 800,000 is not so good? What the hell is wrong with this society! Is money really that good
