“So, what will you wear?” Zhang Xiuying asked.
“This is better.”
“That one looks like work clothes. It is no good. Hey, how about the new clothes that you bought last time. That one is good.” Finally, w.a.n.g Yao was defeated by his mother and he had to wear the new clothes that he bought from town. Then, he drove out of the village.
“Yao, have you found anyone that you like?” In the vehicle, w.a.n.g Ru started to think about the marriage of w.a.n.g Yao.
“No.” w.a.n.g Yao just blocked the following questions that she would ask.
“Impossible. I remember that some of the girls are beautiful in your cla.s.s.” w.a.n.g Ru said.
“They are married.”
“Oh, really?” w.a.n.g Ru said. “Flowers are so eye-catching, just like your sister.”
“Sis, could you be not so narcissistic? You should hurry up and marry!”
“Stop saying that. You focus on driving!”
It was almost 4:30 pm; w.a.n.g Yao drove to town.
“Ah. Where will be the dinner?” w.a.n.g Ru asked.
“Shenghua Hotel.”
“Hey. That is the best hotel in Lianshan. It seems to be that your cla.s.smates are very wealthy!” w.a.n.g Ru said.
“I don’t know, I seldom talk with them,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Okay, tonight’s your chance. You should talk with your cla.s.smates, especially those ladies,” w.a.n.g Ru said.
“Here you are.” w.a.n.g Yao parked at the apartment that w.a.n.g Ru rented, and he looked at the house. It seemed to be old but it was close to her working place.
“Sis, how about buying a house for you?”
“Buy a house? Why?” w.a.n.g Ru looked at the place where she rented.
“The housing price of the area is 5000 yuan and it could be 500 thousand yuan for one house. My salary is less than 3000 yuan, so it is expensive. The apartment that I rented is fine.”
“Sis, you choose a house and I pay for it,” w.a.n.g Yao said. There was more than 2 million on his card, so it was not a big deal to buy a house. Besides, he did not know how to use the money.
“That will be the job of your future brother-in-law. You should hurry to partic.i.p.ate in your gathering. I will go upstairs.” w.a.n.g Ru finished speaking and went upstairs.
w.a.n.g Yao turned the vehicle around and he found a very noticeable building in Lianshan. It was a tall building with 12 floors—Shenghua Hotel, the highest-cla.s.s hotel in Lianshan.
When he found a place to park, he entered the hotel and found the room mentioned by Yang Ming. It was a large room and several round tables could serve 60 people at the same time. He saw that some people had come early when he entered the room.
“Hey. Are you w.a.n.g Yao?!”
People came to say h.e.l.lo to him when he entered, and he replied with a smile.
“I thought you wouldn’t come! I was going to call you.” Yang Ming came to him with a smile. He was in a luxurious suit, so he was handsome and confident.
“Come to our table?” Yang Ming asked.
“That’s fine.”
At that moment, there was a cla.s.smate coming into the room and Yang Ming went to say h.e.l.lo.
w.a.n.g Yao chose a seat near to the window and he talked with nearby cla.s.smates. He could remember their names, but they were so different since they had not seen each other for years. Some of them had been married and some of them even came with their children.
Time was fleeting.
“Have a cigarette,” a 1.8-meter-tall man gave him a cigarette with a smile.
He remembered his name—Li Shugang. He had been always been very tall. He was always in the last row of the cla.s.s. He was not good with words, though. He did not study hard in the beginning, but he tried his best in the second semester of senior year. He did so well that he was admitted by a key university in the Northwest.
“I don’t smoke. Thanks,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“What have you done after graduation?” Li Shugang asked as he lit a cigarette
“Plant herbs at home. And you?”
“I have worked in a biopharmaceutical company. It is in Northwest, but I quit last month.”
“You are going to find a job in hometown?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Hey! Man!” At that moment, there was someone yelling. w.a.n.g Yao looked and he found Yang Ming hugging a strong young man.
“He Hai,” Li Shugang said.
He Hai had been a top student at the school. He not only had a good performance at school but he was very popular. He had so many friends at that time. He performed so well in the examination and was admitted by a top military academy in the country, so he had a promising future.
“He had gone to the gra.s.s-roots units after graduation for three years. Now he’s company commander,” Li Shugang said.
“So promising!” w.a.n.g Yao exclaimed.
“Yeah.”
“Ah? Why does he come back at this time?” w.a.n.g Yao asked curiously. The military should have strict control of outgoing staffs.
“I don’t know.”
Yang Ming dragged He Hai to the table next to them warmly. He Hai said h.e.l.lo to w.a.n.g Yao and the others.
After 5 pm, two tables were full and there was a total of 20 people. They went to different places for college and most of them implied that they would stay at the place of their university during winter or summer holiday. None of them said that they would come back to Lianshan. However, some of them did come back to town after graduation since the living costs were higher and there was a lot of compet.i.tion. The housing price was also very high in the big city and it was hard for them to buy a house even when they worked hard for ten or twenty years.
Sometimes, most people could not decide their destiny even though they had great ambition.
When the cla.s.smates talked with each other, the door squeaked open suddenly.
A beautiful lady came from outside, her long jacket showing off her curves. She wore a face of makeup and her shoulder was covered with black hair.
The room was bright as soon as she came.
“Tong Wei!” Yang Ming stood up with a smile.
“We have seen her for years now and she just keeps getting more and more beautiful,” Li Shugang said lowly.
“Yes.” w.a.n.g Yao took the teacup to have a drink.
The tea was bad.
“Yang Ming seems to chase after her?”
“Maybe?” w.a.n.g Yao said.
Such woman would be so attractive to straight men.
