During the winter vacation, Xiang Nan did little else at home except reading.
Before his vacation, he borrowed three tomes on architecture from the library, each of which was as thick as the Xinhua Dictionary. He planned to spend the whole winter vacation reading these tomes thoroughly.
To be honest, after reading these professional books, Xiang Nan really feels that he has improved a lot. The knowledge reserve is greatly enriched, and the horizons are also broadened. No wonder the ancients said, "Opening a book is beneficial"!
During the winter vacation, Xiang Nan and Zheng Wei also talked several times. They were all beaten secretly when he went out for a walk.
He didn't dare let his mother know that he was in love. She was reluctant to write a book to make money, such a good thing. If you want to know that you are in love, then you shouldn’t just blow it up.
When the time comes, there will be a filial son born under the stick, an offensive of tears, and heart-warming words... He hates this the most, so it is better to do less than to do more.
…
After finally waiting until the holiday was over, Xiang Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his luggage and hit the road again.
"Mom, you must pay attention to your health in the future and don't work too hard. Your son is older now and has the ability to support himself, so you don't have to worry too much about me.
If you can keep your body in good health and avoid getting sick or causing disaster, that is the greatest help to me. Xiang Nan advised before leaving.
His mother now works as a handyman in a factory, and her monthly salary is only a few hundred yuan, which is not as much as the money he earned by spending half a day writing a manuscript.
Therefore, if she is not sick or in trouble, and does not cause trouble for him, she is really helping.
Mother nodded, "Azheng, you must study hard in school and do your best. Don't embarrass me and your father."
"I know, Mom." Xiang Nan agreed, sighing deeply.
With such a demanding mother, it's no wonder that Chen Xiaozheng has been walking on thin ice all his life. Even if I achieve such great success in my career, I still cannot be happy.
To be honest, how could he be happy with such a heavy burden on his back?
…
Back in Hujiang, as soon as he got off the bus, he saw a butterfly-like figure passing through the crowd and rushing towards him quickly.
"Azheng, I miss you so much~" It was Zheng Wei who shouted sweetly.
Xiang Nan suddenly felt a warmth in his heart as his arms were filled with warmth, "I miss you so much too."
"Really? You didn't lie to me? How much do you miss me?" Zheng Wei raised his head, blinked his big eyes, and looked at Xiang Nandao flickeringly.
"Every time I miss you is like a grain of sand, so there is Sahara in this world." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Ouch, Azheng, you're so sore." Zheng Wei shuddered and said, "But I like it."
Xiang Nan laughed and hugged Zheng Wei's waist, "Let's go back to school!"
The two of them immediately left the station and took a taxi back to school together.
"Weiwei, come with me to the Computer City when you have time. I want to buy a laptop." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Azheng, do you also want to play games? Okay, let's form a team together." Upon hearing this, Zheng Wei said happily, "I'm great at playing games. I can help you level up together."
"You know how to play." Xiang Nan knocked her head and explained with a smile, "I bought the computer for writing, not for playing games."
"That's it, okay then." Zheng Wei nodded.
…
Suddenly, Xiang Nan, accompanied by Zheng Wei, bought an Asus laptop.
Pentium M CPU, 512GB of memory, 80G hard drive, 256GB graphics card... This configuration was considered mainstream at the time, but Xiang Nan really wanted to cry.
I really miss his Ryzen R7 CPU, Kingston SSD hard drive, 16GDDR4 memory, and 1650super graphics card.
After buying the computer, Xiang Nan said to Zheng Wei on the way back, "Weiwei, I'm going to move out of the dormitory."
"Move out?! Where to live?" Zheng Wei asked doubtfully.
"Let's rent a house near the school." Xiang Nan explained with a smile, "The dormitory is too messy and it affects my writing. I think it's better to move out."
He plans to spend more time writing in the second half of the year besides studying.
Because there is not much time left for him, he must seize the time to write and make money. Only before graduation can he save enough money so that he and Zheng Wei can start a new life in Shanghai.
You don't have to be like those fresh graduates who are looking for a job, looking for a way out, and worrying all day long.
"Is that possible?" Zheng Wei asked doubtfully.
"Of course." Xiang Nan smiled.
There are quite a few boys in their class who are now renting houses outside.
On the one hand, living outside is more freeing. For example, the power outage in the dormitory at ten o'clock is a huge inconvenience for those students who like to play games and download copies.
On the one hand, living outside makes it easier to have sex with your girlfriend. Otherwise, if you want to do something embarrassing, you have to go to a hotel or rent a house, which is not as convenient as renting a house by yourself.
"Okay." Zheng Wei nodded.
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan was busy renting a house.
After many comparisons, he finally found a suitable house.
The house has one bedroom and one living room, with an area of 40 square meters, which is considered very spacious. The furniture and appliances are all complete, and the monthly rent is one thousand eleven, with one deposit and three deposits, so the price is reasonable.
In addition, it is close to the school and the real estate agent is relatively responsible, so it is still good in Xiang Nan's opinion.
After all aspects were settled, Xiang Nan moved immediately.
On the day of the move, Zheng Wei brought everyone in the dormitory to help.
"I only have this little luggage, do I need four beauties to help me?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Of course we do. In the future, this may be where we Weiwei live. Of course we have to come and help her fight." Zhu Xiaobei said with a smile.
"Chen Xiaozheng, tell me honestly, are you really renting a house just for writing?" Li Weijuan stared at Xiang Nan and asked a question that struck a chord with her soul.
"Chen Xiaozheng, we Weiwei are a good girl, you must be nicer to her." Ruan Guan reminded, "Otherwise, all our sisters, Er Yao San, will not follow her."
"Please rest assured, three beauties, that I am by no means the kind of bad man who is always attracted by new ideas and hates the old, and always gives up." When Xiang Nan heard this, he immediately said, "I, Chen Xiaozheng, am an honest and reliable young gentleman. It’s a wasted reputation.”
"Chen Xiaozheng, I didn't expect that you are usually so aloof, but you turned out to be so poor." Ruan Guan couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing after hearing what he said.
"Yeah, I originally thought you were difficult to get along with, but I didn't expect you to be quite fun." Zhu Xiaobei said in surprise.
Before, Zheng Wei, Ruan Guan, and Li Weijuan all said that he was very arrogant, withdrawn, unkind, and seemed to be difficult to deal with.
But now that she has gotten in touch with him, she feels that Xiang Nan is actually pretty good. He is quite easy-going and humorous, which is a bit different from what she thought.
"This is all thanks to Weiwei. She brings sunshine to my life and lets me know that there is another way to live." Xiang Nan smiled.
One sentence moved everyone very much.
