Self-cultivation of spare tire

In the afternoon, the campus radio station played "The Story of Time", and Luo Dayou's lazy and casual voice echoed in the campus.

A flaming red butterfly like a maple leaf flew by the window, it stayed briefly in front of the boy's desk, then fluttered its wings, and flew away lightly from the messy draft papers.

Chen Zhu paused while writing the formula, and turned his head to look at the red-like setting sun outside the window.

"The flowers of spring, the wind of autumn and the setting sun of winter—"

Someone around me hummed along in a low voice, and there were also rustling laughter.

"Why, we have spring, autumn and winter, so summer doesn't deserve to have a name?"

Chen Zhu tugged at the sticky front of his clothes, the hot wind in the afternoon made him drowsy.

"The whole song is about summer, silly." Someone said, "Youth is summer!"

Bright, splendid, and even a little scorching, it looks like summer, and it also looks like youth.

However, Chen Zhu's summer seemed to be extremely short.

Just like the butterfly that stayed in front of his table, it flapped its wings and flew away before he could see the lines clearly.

Chen Zhu neatly arranged the draft papers one by one, packed his schoolbag meticulously, and walked on the tree-lined path after school.

In the magnificent evening aftertaste, the boy's figure was infinitely elongated, dragging out a long, summer tail.

"Chen Zhu!" Jiang Jianren walked up quickly, "The dean told you to go to the office."

Chen Zhu stopped, and when he looked back, his short hair was blown up by the wind, and under the setting sun, his whole body seemed to be glowing.

"It should be that the recommended quota has come down." Jiang Jianren pushed his glasses, looked at the outstanding person in front of him, and showed a sincere smile, "I congratulate you in advance."

The recommended school is the highest institution in the capital, and there are no more than three places in a key high school like No. [-] Middle School.

Chen Zhu is recommended without examination, and his high school life will be much easier in the future.

"Really." Chen Zhu finally showed a vivid smile.

Since returning to China, he either immersed himself in writing questions, or stared out of the window in a daze. His whole body seemed to be wrapped in the sweltering heat of summer and he couldn't breathe.

"Chen Zhu, congratulations." Jiang Jianren stepped forward, hesitated for a while, and finally hugged Chen Zhu gently.

Chen Zhu froze. Firstly, he was not used to too close physical contact; secondly, embracing this kind of passionate expression was not Jiang Jianren's style.

However, Chen Zhu still hugged this friend who helped him, "Thank you. I believe you can also go to your favorite school."

Jiang Jianren: "Chen Zhu, which university do you... want to go to?" It stands to reason that no one would refuse the invitation from the highest university in the capital.

But, if the other party is Chen Zhu...it's hard to say.

Jiang Jianren heard Chen Zhu mention by chance that he wanted to go to HKUST.

Of course, Jiang Jianren is not clear about Chen Zhu's ideal, but he is sure that a person like Chen Zhu will dedicate his life to the country in the future.

Under the sunlight, the boy's eyes reflected magnificent colors, even the shadows were so straight.

"Not sure yet." Chen Zhu smiled, "But no matter where I go, I want to make some contributions to the country. "

Jiang Jianren looked at the serious person in front of him. If these words came from other people's mouths, he would feel abrupt, but Chen Zhu's sincerity would only make people admire him from the bottom of his heart.

Jiang Jianren: "Chen Zhu, I believe in you. You will definitely realize your dreams." He paused, and then said, "May we all realize our dreams."

With the arrival of the recommendation quota, there is also Chen Zhu's scholarship.

Chen Zhu counted the money, then carefully took out the money stored in the cabinet, and carefully counted the wad of money several times.

After thinking for a while, he took out some wrinkled meal expenses from his pocket and smoothed them out one by one.

Chen Zhu sealed all the money in an envelope, and planned to return it to Xu Lanting with interest.

Speaking of which, I haven't seen Xu Lanting for a month since returning to China.

However, Chen Zhu has long been used to that person disappearing at every turn, and also used to the lonely but simple life in the days without Xu Lanting.

The last time he made Xu Lanting so angry, Chen Zhu wasn't even sure if he had been cleared out by Xu Lanting.

He carefully hid the money in the middle of the schoolbag, then picked up the key, put on his shoes, and went out.

This was the first time he took the initiative to find Xu Lanting, Chen Zhu thought, perhaps, it would also be the last time.

There was still a vague electrical sound on the other end of the phone, and after a long time, just when Chen Zhu thought Xu Lanting would not answer the phone, someone picked up the phone.

"Hello."

Chen Zhu heard that it was Xu Lanting's assistant's voice.On the day of returning to China, it was this assistant who arranged everything. From the beginning to the end, Xu Lanting never appeared again.

"Hello." It was the first time that Chen Zhu took the initiative to bother Xu Lanting. He thought, at this time, the other party should still be busy, otherwise there would be no time to connect to the phone.

Chen Zhu: "I'm Chen Zhu, if Mr. Xu is busy, next time I—"

Before Chen Zhu finished speaking, the assistant on the other end of the phone said, "It's you! It's all right, come here."

There was a mess of voices on the other end of the phone. Chen Zhu seemed to hear the assistant asking someone, followed by a man's vague voice, "Arrange a car to pick it up."

The assistant's voice came again, "Student Chen, can you give me your address so that I can arrange a car to pick you up here."

Chen Zhu knew that Xu Lanting's company could not be easily entered by ordinary people, so he agreed.

Originally thought that the assistant would send him to Xu Lanting's company, but unexpectedly, the car drove all the way into the bar street on the East Third Ring Road.

Looking at the feasting lights outside the window, Chen Zhu clenched the strap of his schoolbag uncomfortably.

He doesn't like such occasions, but these places are probably the places where President Xu Lan hangs out, and the driver skillfully finds a parking space and parks the car.

Chen Zhu was led into a fairly clean bar, but since he didn't have the so-called "admission ticket", he could only wait outside the box for the time being.

The boy was wearing a clean shirt and sweatpants, which didn't fit in with the bright colors around him. He sat quietly in the corner of the bar, carrying a somewhat old schoolbag, his eyebrows and eyes drooping slightly.

Another long wait—sometimes Chen Zhu didn't understand why Xu Lanting always made him wait.

Waiting for him to come home, waiting for his occasional care, waiting for his late tenderness, waiting for his sudden sweet talk.

The clock finally pointed to twelve o'clock.Chen Zhu realized that Xu Lanting might have forgotten that there was another person foolishly waiting for him at the door.

Chen Zhu stood up and said to the security outside the box, "Is Xu Lanting in?"

Security—to be precise, it was Xu Lanting's bodyguard, who dutifully did not disclose Xu Lanting's whereabouts.

However, Chen Zhu still heard the faint voice coming from the box.

"Hey, Brother Xu, you've recently become a vegetarian. You don't even look at such an amazing girl?"

The man's voice was a little fuzzy, but Chen Zhu could still hear that it was Xu Lanting's unique lazy tone.

"With my younger brother here today, you all restrain yourself."

"Brother, what kind of brother? Hey, let's be honest, when will you two get engaged?"

got engaged…

Chen Zhu was stunned for a moment, as if he had been slapped in the head.

In a second, he slammed into the tall bodyguard with all his strength, followed the bodyguard's retreat force, gritted his teeth, and smashed the box door open a gap.

The boy's voice pierced through the loud music and resounded throughout the box.

"Xu Lanting!"

Before Chen Zhu had time to say the second sentence, he was pushed out by the bodyguards.

And at that moment, through the narrow crack of the door, Chen Zhu saw the man sitting lazily in the center of the sofa, with a beautiful young man sitting beside him.

It was clearly a hasty glance, but Chen Zhu could see it so clearly.He clearly saw how close the two were, and saw Xu Lanting smiling dotingly at the other.

He saw that drunk handsome man leaning on Xu Lanting's shoulder drunkenly.

He saw that they were as intimate as lovers.

The dazzling picture is like a slow motion, frame by frame, clearly reflected in Chen Zhu's eyes.

The bodyguard did not expect that the seemingly docile boy would suddenly explode.He made a ruthless hand, and with a bang, he pressed Chen Zhu against the wall with his backhand.

Chen Zhu heard the sound of his own bones twisting, and the sharp pain pierced the last bit of the boy's self-esteem.

When Xu Lanting walked out slowly, Chen Zhu subconsciously closed his eyes, unwilling to face such an embarrassing, almost cruel scene.

"According to what he does, let go."

The restraint on his body disappeared, Chen Zhu's legs went numb, and he almost knelt in front of Xu Lanting on the spot.

However, he clenched his teeth and leaned against the wall, not allowing himself to fall.

With his eyes closed, he smelled the man's mixed scent of various perfumes.

Chen Zhu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and forced himself to open his eyes, looking directly at the man in front of him.

Chen Zhu didn't want to say another word, he tried his best to suppress his trembling arms, and slowly opened the zipper of his schoolbag.

The envelope hidden in the interlayer was a little wrinkled, and Chen Zhu took out the heavy stack of money—although to Xu Lanting, it was only the price of a breakfast.

He stood up straighter, and under the man's deep gaze, he slapped the money heavily on Xu Lanting's chest.

And Xu Lanting leisurely folded his arms, didn't answer, but turned his head to look at the person in front of him.

The pile of money that had been saved for a long time fell to the ground with a snap, like a pile of waste paper that no one cares about.

"Pick it up." Chen Zhu said coldly.

For Xu Lanting, money is just something that can be stepped on, but for Chen Zhu, it is something that has been engraved in his bones since he was a child and should be cherished.

How could Xu Lanting understand Chen Zhu's persistence and belief? He sneered and didn't move.

The man's contemptuous gesture completely angered Chen Zhu.He grabbed Xu Lanting's collar, wishing to tear up his gentle disguise completely.

However, Chen Zhu still retained his self-cultivation and bottom line, he said in a deep voice, "Money, pick it up."

The bodyguards on the side had probably never seen anyone dare to treat Xu Lanting like this, and were about to step forward, but Xu Lanting waved him away.

Xu Lanting let Chen Zhu tug at his collar, seeing the anger in Chen Zhu's eyes, he was still thinking about whether Chen Zhu had grown taller these days.

"Xu Lanting." Chen Zhu endured it, and said in a deep voice, "You are a scum."

Xu Lanting thought he was going to hold back some curse words, so he couldn't help but smile, "Yeah, I'm a scumbag, you gentleman, isn't this just a coincidence."

Xu Lanting did not shy away from the fact that he was a scumbag.Otherwise, he wouldn't be cruel and deliberately let Chen Zhu wait outside the door.

He knew that Chen Zhu had already arrived at the door, but the recent "cold war" made Xu Lanting realize that Chen Zhu was becoming more and more rebellious.

The man made up his mind to pull out the overly sharp thorns on the boy's body.

However, seeing that people were really angry, Xu Lanting did not have the sense of accomplishment of conquering prey in the past, but was wrapped in inexplicable emotions.

Very stuffy.

Chen Zhu gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Xu Lanting, you are a complete scum."

It seems that he really provoked people too much...Xu Lanting raised his hand and brushed Chen Zhu's tightly pursed lips, and said with a smile: "Don't you have a good time fucking scum, huh?" Smile, "Little gentleman."
