Su Mei frowned and thought to herself, he always slipped up at critical moments. Could it be that he had to evade responsibility again this time?
"Are you still not a man?"
Lin Yue looked at her and then at Liangqin: "Do you know why I keep avoiding this problem?"
He sighed again: "I made a bet with Meng Xiaojun."
He made a bet with Meng Xiaojun?
Liangqin's eyes narrowed slightly and she looked over with a frown. From the day she chose not to go to the United States, she decided to forget the past and ignored Meng Xiaojun's affairs. Now that Lin Yue took the initiative to mention this name, her heart tightened for no reason. Afraid that this bet was about her.
"Ten years, he said that he will compete with me in ten years to see who of us can do better. I know what he means. He wants to embarrass me in front of you. If I don't do as well as him, I can straighten my back. Zhang said that you chose the wrong person. So..." Lin Yue looked embarrassed: "I'm afraid that I can't give you a good life."
Liangqin said: "Is this the reason for your escape?"
Lin Yue said: "That's right."
"..."
He looked at Su Mei again: "Su Mei, do you know? During the three years when you were studying for a master's degree at Yenching University, those German reference books and German class notes were not left by me to Cheng Dongqing at all. Requested from the hands of German major students and teachers.”
The face of the woman who had been so confident just now changed drastically after saying this. When she recalled Cheng Dongqing's various abnormal behaviors at that time, she understood.
Cheng Dongqing deceived her, but if you want to hate her, you can't hate her, but you like her? She didn't like him at all. After thinking about it, the only emotion in her heart should be called gratitude.
Lin Yue said: "So you see, Cheng Dongqing can do this for you, what about me? What have I done for you? So I am very entangled, and I often ask myself, if we were together, could we treat you like Cheng Dongqing did?" Okay? If we are together, will you compare me with Cheng Dongqing if you find out about this in the future? "
This question stopped Su Mei.
Lin Yue continued: "You think this is a multiple-choice question, and you think you can get the answer if you go all out, and accept the answer. You can do it, but I can't, because I am a person who doesn't know how to refuse, and I am also a person who regrets easily. , no matter which one I choose, I will feel ashamed of the other, and if we are not happy in the future, I am afraid that I will have thoughts about whether it will be better if I choose the other one, and I am also afraid that you will have such thoughts, so don’t Do you force me to do it? Give me some more time, I believe time will definitely give the answer."
Liang Qin was surprised by the bet between Lin Yue and Meng Xiaojun, and Su Mei was confused by Cheng Dongqing's infatuation. After another fight with Lin Yue, the two of them gave up, and all their anger and determination were wiped out and disappeared.
Lin Yue looked at the two women who had lost their energy, and secretly praised his acting skills. Fortunately, he has [I am an Actor LV3] and can control his emotions easily, otherwise he would definitely laugh. Then The result would be either to feel loved or understood, or maybe be pinched by the two of them... no, pinched to death.
He remembered a word he had taught Cheng Dongqing before, ballbreaker, oh, so sour.
He had thought about getting rid of the two of them as soon as possible, but he always felt that the operation of this main task should be more exciting. So... how exciting should it be? What should I do?
"Let's go, it's almost noon. I'll take you to eat first. The pasta here is the best in China." He started the car engine and drove to the middle of the road and said, "Did you know? Shanxi has the most ancient buildings in the country. It’s the best-preserved province and it’s not easy to visit. I’ll take you to visit it in the afternoon.”
The two of them were silent, still thinking about what he just said.
…
Cheng Dongqing and Wang Yang have been waiting for Lin Yue to come back from his hometown to give them an answer.
The latter just wanted to watch the excitement. Mr. Lin was a great guy. When he was in college, he was the focus of the department. His collection of love letters was enviable. Now that he has recovered, it depends on how he can repay this emotional debt.
As for the former, Cheng Dongqing became very anxious. Not only was she absent-minded in class, but she also tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep at night. Wang Yang understood this, because if Lin Yue chose Su Mei, the country boy would have no chance at all. If Lin Yue If you choose Liangqin, it’s hard to say whether spring will come, but winter will definitely pass quickly.
They couldn't wait to come, and two weeks later Wang Yang received an international call from Lin Yue, saying that the three of them had returned.
Back, this guy returned to Germany quietly, and what he said implicitly meant that the problem was solved.
How did he do it?
Wang Yang couldn't understand and felt that if he put himself in Lin Yue's perspective, he would definitely die ugly.
The holly withered completely and remained decadent for half a month until I received a letter from Germany.
It was written by Su Mei to him.
She said that she knew what he did when she was studying for her master's degree, and was very grateful for his efforts, but gratitude and liking are different, so she could only say sorry with great regret.
Also sent with the letter was a hand-tied blue scarf.
In the past, Su Mei's attitude towards him was neither good nor bad, just very cold. Now she knitted a scarf for him with her own hands. Cheng Dongqing was very happy. Not only did she feel better, but she also became more energetic. There is also.
Just that scarf, I wear it when going out, in class, and when posting small advertisements. I only take it off when eating, because I am afraid of getting stained by oil splashes.
Thanks to Lin Yue, Cheng Dongqing learned to tell jokes. He even told the class about the embarrassing moments when Wang Yang and LUCY were dating, just to let the students deepen their understanding of related words and phrases.
And Wang Yang didn't show any weakness. He moved the household appliances in the doghouse to the lecture area, showing those Hollywood blockbusters while giving explanations. Occasionally, he would reveal himself as a teacher, imitating the Japanese pronunciation of the country turtle when he was studying in college and memorizing movie lines. , which elicits roars of laughter every time.
As a result, Cheng Dongqing lost the ability to laugh at himself about his love, but gained the ability to complain about his buddies. The two started a teaching and training life of falling in love and killing each other in front of the students.
There are more and more students, and the reputation is getting better and better. KFC and carpentry workshops can no longer accommodate the students who come to learn English. Just like in the movie, Cheng Dongqing took advantage of the opportunity and occupied the building of an abandoned factory. A handful of the wool of doctrine.
Correspondingly, the money in their hands also increased in bundles. The two bought a house, a car, picked up a mobile phone, hired several employees, and even renovated an abandoned factory and separated dormitories for boys and girls. , auditorium, teacher’s office...
…
Six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The time came to 1994.
It’s the turn of spring and summer again. The graduates of Yanjing University are busy, the teachers are busy, and the lotus flowers in Weiming Lake are busy.
Phew~
With the sound of the passenger plane taking off, Meng Xiaojun walked out of the connecting passage.
A piece of news is being played on the screen in the lobby. The content is that technical staff from the Bolong Brewery in Munich, Germany, came to China for inspection. They investigated the climate, altitude, water and soil conditions in Datong, Shanxi, and prepared to launch in-depth cooperation with Yungang Brewery. , in order to take this opportunity to open up the mainland market, achieve mutual benefit and common development.
Meng Xiaojun was not interested in such news at all. After a few glances, he looked away, took off his suit jacket, put it on his arm, and pushed the suitcase outside.
This year is his tenth year abroad. When he had a phone call with Cheng Dongqing before, the country brat strongly invited him to come back to the country to take a look. He said that the current capital has changed a lot. He also said that if he didn't come back, he and Wang Yang would have forgotten how old he was. What's going on.
Because of Cheng Dongqing's warm invitation, and because of the knot in his heart, he came back.
When he left, he made a bet with Lin Yue to see who would do well in ten years. He believed that since he was in the most powerful country in the world, he would definitely do better than those who stayed at home to develop.
How did Lin Yue answer him?
Ten years is nothing, give him twenty years!
He regarded this as Lin Yue's ridicule and kept it in his mind for ten years. Although it was only half the time before the end of the gambling game, the date "ten years" was set by him. It was also time to come back and see how Lin Yue and Liangqin were doing. ——In the past few years in the United States, out of self-esteem, he never asked Wang Yang and Cheng Dongqing about Lin Yue's situation.
After leaving the terminal and walking not far, he saw Cheng Dongqing, who was leaning on the Audi car and opening her arms in a welcoming gesture. Except that this guy was a little more energetic than before, he basically didn't change much. His appearance was still the same as that of a rustic. , missing Wang Yang by a century.
The three of them chatted for a while, then Cheng Dongqing let him get into the car and drove toward the city center.
Meng Xiaojun wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know how to ask.
Wang Yang glanced at him through the rearview mirror: "Do you want to ask about Lin Yue's situation?"
