Mr. Lu brought a man with an unfamiliar face to visit the factory, which did not attract special attention, because it is not uncommon for businessmen to visit occasionally.
But this time, the guest was exceptionally handsome. Although he was young, he was well-dressed and looked noble. Moreover, Lu Yong had never seen a posture like facing a big enemy, leading the way and introducing him solemnly. One can't help but guess that he brought Whether the person is an investor with huge sums of money or a civil servant of a relevant agency.
Shen Wenqiu hadn't stepped into such a serious working environment for a long time, and felt that he was out of place, as if only his body was present. The machine was roaring, the air was filled with the smell of metal, the mechanical device on the car dismantling line easily disintegrated the steel monster, and the yard outside was full of vehicles waiting to be dismantled, like a mine waiting to be excavated.
Lu Yong said: "There are also two branch factories in other cities, mainly engaged in the recycling of used batteries, the harmless treatment of scrapped circuit boards, and the recycling of scrapped cars."
The factory area is too big, and it takes a long time to walk with only two legs. Shen Wenqiu stopped and stopped, and he realized that his body was really bad before he knew it. He just walked a few more steps. I was out of breath and started to feel pain in my feet.
Lu Yong would stop and wait for him from time to time, asking, "Am I walking too fast?"
Shen Wenqiu took a breath and said, "It's okay."
Go to the deepest part of the park.
Turning the corner, the vision suddenly opened up—
A gray-blue building with a sci-fi style stands in front of him, with a square blue-black sign on the roof: Hefeng Group Electronic Waste Recycling Engineering Technology Research Center.
The building is the brain and heart of the group.
The phantom of the small dilapidated house built on the wasteland with bricks, steel plates, and glass that year was like a mirage, gradually changing into reality until it became this majestic appearance.
Shen Wenqiu raised his head, and stared at it for a long time without blinking, the scorching sun pierced his eyes, making his eyes itchy, and he wanted to shed tears: "That's great."
Lu Yong stood beside him, looked up at the building together with him, and said, "The new building was just built the year before last."
Shen Wenqiu's originally empty eyes had a little light, and he said softly with some nostalgia: "You said at that time that you had the most professional scientific research room. That's great."
The summer sun is so hot that I can't bear to stand on the cement road for a few more minutes.
Especially for a person like Shen Wenqiu who lacks exercise and is physically weak, he really felt that he was getting hot from the sun, so he turned his head, and when he turned his head, he saw Lu Yong looking at him, and he was at a loss: "...what are you laughing at? Is there something on my face?"
Lu Yong shook his head: "No."
He said, "Little Baa, you finally talked to me properly."
Shen Wenqiu pretended to be deaf and dumb and said, "When did I not talk properly?"
The direct sunlight dispelled the haze on his body, Shen Wenqiu smiled: "Tell me about your baby."
The two entered the building while arguing.
The cool air-conditioned cold wind blows over the face, dispelling the summer heat wrapped around people.
As soon as Lu Yong mentioned the R&D studio, his eyes lit up again, and he began to talk endlessly. Shen Wenqiu actually couldn't understand the various technical terms he said, but he felt like going back to the past in a daze, as if Standing beside him was the fifteen-year-old boy, who had not changed.
Lu Yong breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that Shen Wenqiu's fur had been smoothed out silently, put away the sharp thorns all over his body, looked at himself peacefully, listened to himself attentively as before, and became much softer, just like a It was a little wild dog that was about to be tamed, and he thought he might be able to pet it.
…
High school next semester.
After getting along intimately during a summer vacation, the friendship between Shen Wenqiu and Lu Yong has grown by leaps and bounds.
Lu Yong himself secretly felt flattered.
Shen Wenqiu is very popular and has many friends, and there are always a large group of people around him. Although he and Lu Yong are also good friends, they are not particularly close. Now Shen Wenqiu will stick to him whenever he is free, and even pull him whisper.
Friendship also has exclusivity.
Of course the boy who had a good time with Shen Wenqiu before was not happy. He felt that his good friend was snatched away by a bumpkin who popped up halfway, and he was unhappy.
When Lu Yong was in a small group centered on Shen Wenqiu, he would be stabbed from time to time.
Once after a physical education class, a boy suddenly handed over a hundred-yuan bill as a matter of course, and said to Lu Yong: "Class is coming soon, I don't have time to go to the canteen, help us run errands to buy drinks, and the rest of the change money It’s all your errand expenses.”
It's not a question, it's an order, and the tone is completely instructive.
Lu Yong didn't react for a while, and heard them say again:
"What do you want to drink? My treat."
"Coke!" "Sprite!" "Orange juice! Thank you, Shao Luo."
A group of people were laughing and laughing.
If he refuses, it will appear that he doesn't fit in and doesn't know how to praise, and he has great strength and can run fast... Carrying a bag of drinks is no problem.
Lu Yong glanced at Shen Wenqiu, and was about to stand up and agree, when Shen Wenqiu stood up like a jump: "Wow! If you have errand fees, you should have said earlier! If you have money, won't you earn it for me? I'll be the first to rush." go up!"
The man asked: "Why? You are not short of money, what are you doing with this little money?"
Shen Wenqiu hummed and said, "What is this little money? Money is money, no amount of money is enough."
Shen Wenqiu went to the canteen with him, and after walking a little further, Shen Wenqiu said to him: "Are you stupid? Are you not willing to refuse?"
Lu Yong said in a muffled voice, "They are your friends."
Lu Yong felt a bit inferior in front of Shen Wenqiu's old friends, and felt that if he was ranked according to the degree of friendship, he must be at the bottom. He and Shen Wenqiu didn't get along for a long time, and his hobbies of video games, novels and comics were not compatible. , not funny and humorous, and can't even get along with chatting, what a boring friend.
Shen Wenqiu didn't speak, seemed to be thinking about something, walked a few steps slowly, and then said indistinctly and indistinctly: "You...you are different from them."
Lu Yong felt like his ears were scalded by this sentence, and his ears turned red all of a sudden. What does this mean? Don't dare to think about it.
"Ding Lingling!!" The class bell rang suddenly and piercingly.
"Oops!" Shen Wenqiu said, running quickly, "Rush!"
Lu Yong took a step too late to follow. Behind him, he saw Shen Wenqiu's soft black hair being blown up in the summer wind. The blue and white school uniform was unzipped, and the wind blew up like a bird's wings and tails, shining brilliantly. It's as light as if it's about to fly at any time.
But they were still late that day, and it happened to be the head teacher's class. The old class was very angry and tried to make an example of others. They confiscated their drinks and fined them to stand beside the podium. Lu Yong felt that Shen Wenqiu was burdened.
As soon as the head teacher turned around to write on the blackboard, the boys below made faces at Shen Wenqiu. Of course Shen Wenqiu winked at them and made a particularly ugly face, deliberately trying to make the bad friends laugh so as to drag them into the water. In the end, they held back, and it was the first time Lu Yong met, so they couldn't hold back.
Because he laughed out loud, he was caught by the teacher again. Not only was he punished to stand, but he also had to write a self-criticism.
School is over on Saturday.
Lu Yong heard someone ask Shen Wenqiu: "Will you go to the skating rink tomorrow?"
Shen Wenqiu refused without hesitation: "No, I want to make up lessons."
The man said: "Your grades are so good, what classes do you make up?"
Shen Wenqiu lied as if it was true: "I haven't taken the first place yet, and I can still improve, why don't I make up lessons?"
The other party had no choice but to give in: "Why do you have to make up so many lessons? Take tonight, how many times have you pigeonholed me?"
Shen Wenqiu waved helplessly, "All right, all right."
Lu Yongyi thought about it, Shen Wenqiu turned to him, blinked at him quickly, and cast a sly smile, as if saying: Remember our secret agreement
Lu Yong felt as if his heart had been electrocuted, numb, and his head became dizzy again. He had to lower his head and stuff things into his schoolbag at a loss.
The sense of superiority swelled wildly in the chest, as if it could not be filled, and it seemed to be too full.
Lu Yong was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he wouldn't be able to bear his secrets.
I quickly put on my schoolbag and left.
Shen Wenqiu chased up from behind and grabbed him: "Why are you walking so fast? I still have something to tell you."
Someone was calling Shen Wenqiu, they stood still and looked back together, Lu Yong said: "They are calling you."
Shen Wenqiu pulled his sleeve, lowered his voice, and said in a low voice: "The old class said that he will change seats next week. Do you want to sit at the same table with me? I will secretly go and tell the teacher."
Lu Yong felt that he was unworthy, but before he answered, Shen Wenqiu said goodbye to him, and was called away by other friends who urged him.
Lu Yong looked at his figure and thought that when he was younger, he lost his mother and it was inconvenient to lose one hand. If he was not careful, he would always get dirty. His classmates didn't want to sit with him. The classmate who arranged was also crying and clamoring to change the same table, dislike him for being dirty and smelly.
…
Lu Yong accompanied Shen Wenqiu to walk around the company. The female employees had to look at Shen Wenqiu more when they passed by. After one after another came, Lu Yong felt that something was wrong. He wondered if they were sharing news in the group, and purposely Come and see the handsome guy.
Shen Wenqiu looked much more energetic, probably in formal occasions, he didn't want to be hunched over and dejected, he just showed his face, held his head up, and he looked like he used to.
Yes.
Shen Wenqiu just fell into the mud and wiped it off, so that people can see what a good person he is.
Have lunch together in the company cafeteria.
Shen Wenqiu packed a large plate of food, Lu Yong looked at it and said, "Did you eat so much today?"
Shen Wenqiu said: "After walking so much, I'm almost starving to death."
Surrounded by employees who come to eat.
Coincidentally, when Lu Yong raised his head and saw Teacher Ding coming to eat, he immediately felt uncomfortable, for fear of being spotted. Ding Nian glanced at him inadvertently, Lu Yong immediately took a step to the side as if trying to cover up, subconsciously covering Shen Wenqiu.
Shen Wenqiu was holding a plate full of food and was almost knocked off by him. He said angrily, "What are you squeezing? You almost knocked over."
Lu Yong stepped aside quickly: "I'm sorry."
Teacher Ding passed by and glanced at him with a smile without saying a word, Lu Yong blushed.
Shen Wenqiu couldn't find it because his back was turned, so he went to find a vacant seat, and said as he walked, "Your company's food is very good, it looks delicious, and it's all my favorite dishes."
Lu Yong said: "You don't have any dishes you don't like, you're not picky."
Shen Wenqiu smiled and said: "Yes, my dad said the same thing. In kindergarten, the teacher praised me for not being picky and asked other children to learn from me. Then I can only enjoy the pleasure of eating and drinking now. .”
Halfway through eating, Shen Wenqiu fiddled with the food with a spoon, and suddenly asked, "Do you have a camera? Maybe you have one?"
Lu Yong asked: "What's wrong?"
Shen Wenqiu said: "I want to take a photo, can you take a photo with me in front of the scientific research building?"
Of course it can.
Lu Yong found a digital camera and asked the staff to help take pictures.
The background is the front desk of the lobby of the Science and Technology Building. Shen Wenqiu took a single photo and a group photo of two people.
Shen Wenqiu took a deep breath, and smiled artificially at the camera.
There is a printer in the office, and I got the developed photos on the spot. Shen Wenqiu was overjoyed for a long time. He didn't like it: "The photos are really good, and the lighting is good. I don't look so ugly."
"You're not ugly." Lu Yong said.
Seeing Shen Wenqiu holding the group photo in his hand, Lu Yong couldn't put it down, looking at it like a treasure.
Lu Yong walked over and frowned when he saw Shen Wenqiu in the photo... I don't know if he was too concerned, he always felt that although Shen Wenqiu in the photo was smiling, the smile didn't reach his eyes.
Shen Wenqiu said: "Thank you for your support. Can you give me another plastic bag? I will put the photos away."
Shen Wenqiu was very satisfied.
He felt that this photo was very suitable for the posthumous photo on his tombstone.
