Chapter 74: Everything Goes Well
During the October 1st National Day holiday, Minister Bian Jide went on a trip with his family. Lu Fan rarely had a free holiday, so he went to Chang'an to see his sister. Feeling bored alone, he pulled Du Wenlong along.
On the way, the two exchanged work experience in a low voice.
Du Wenlong said: "Brother Fan, our Director Xiaobin is too awesome. I handled a case with him, and his eyes could almost eat people!"
Lu Fan laughed: "Director Zhang is indeed very powerful. I have been cleaned up by him. You should learn from him well and strive to be as powerful as him in the future."
"We basically work overtime every day. 5+2, white plus black (working day and night) is not just talk. Basically, no one takes annual leave, and even if they do, it won't be approved."
"Your workload is indeed large. As long as you handle one case, the relevant materials pile up like a mountain, and formalism is also very serious."
"Yes, I copy case files every day, feeling that everyone has endless things to copy, which takes more time than handling cases properly."
"No way, now we pay attention to work traces. Every unit is wasting time and energy, doing some 'paper talk.' Isn't our Organization Department the same? Empty work is done realistically, and real work is done emptily."
"Brother Fan, when will you buy a house and a car?"
"I won't buy a house for the time being, I'm not getting married. But I do want to buy a car, it will be convenient for everything. Why don't we go to the 4S shop and take a look?"
"Brother Fan, I raise both hands and feet in favor. It's best to drive a new car on the way back!"
Lu Fan was moved. There were hundreds of thousands lying in the card, his sister's tuition didn't need to be worried about, and there was a "Wutong Xiaoqi" that laid eggs. Appropriately rewarding himself and giving his bitter life a little sweetness.
Arriving in Chang'an, the two took a bus to the Industrial University Affiliated High School.
Just after getting off the bus, they saw Lu Yao waiting at the bus stop, with Chen Liqiong standing beside her.
Lu Yao happily hugged her brother's arm and showed off: "Brother, this monthly exam I entered the top 50!"
Lu Fan affectionately touched his sister's head and said happily: "Really amazing! But you can't study stupidly, you have to combine work and rest. On weekends, you and Sister Liqiong go shopping and eat something delicious. What do you want to eat today? Brother will reward you!"
"Brother, can we go to Defachang at the Bell Tower to eat dumplings? I've heard classmates talk about it many times!"
Lu Fan said straightforwardly: "Eat whatever you want, let's go, go to the Bell Tower! Liqiong, thank you for taking care of Yao Yao."
"Thank you for what? Yao Yao and I are good girlfriends, not for your face."
Lu Fan smiled, reached out to stop a taxi, and four people were just right.
Defachang is famous for its dumpling banquet and is a time-honored Chinese brand that is famous overseas. There are more than 200 varieties, and the production methods include: pan-frying, deep-frying, steaming, boiling, roasting, etc. The standard flavors include: sweet, salty, spicy, numbing, strange, etc. It has been rated as "Ancient Flavor of China," "Famous Chinese Food," and other titles many times in national catering competitions. The appearance inherits the ancient style of a thousand years, and the interior decoration integrates modern rhyme, luxurious and elegant. The dining environment can be called first-class.
Arriving at Defachang, Chen Liqiong took a few people to the second floor. It was really crowded and full of people. They waited for more than ten minutes before they were arranged a seat.
Chen Liqiong introduced: "Don't think this is a simple dumpling restaurant. It has four floors and an area of 3,600 square meters. The second floor mainly operates the 'one dumpling, one shape, one hundred dumplings, one hundred flavors' dumpling banquet and new-style seafood classic products. When I registered last year, my dad took me here once. Even eating dumplings is very expensive, I can't afford it!"
Lu Fan laughed: "Eat to your heart's content today, consider it my thanks to you!"
"Hehe, then don't feel the pinch later."
Since Chen Liqiong had been here, ordering must be done by her.
In less than ten minutes, several plates of dumplings were on the table. Lu Fan and Chou Chou couldn't help but exclaim. The dumplings became like this? They were simply exquisite handicrafts.
Each one was pleasing to the eye, making people drool and reluctant to use chopsticks. It was truly one dumpling, one shape, one hundred dumplings, one hundred flavors, a feast for the eyes and mouth!
Various flavors of six major fragrance types, including meat fragrance, egg fragrance, fruit fragrance, sauce fragrance, vegetable fragrance, and seafood fragrance, were truly: one meal of dumpling banquet, taste all the freshness in the world.
After chewing slowly, Lu Fan couldn't help but praise. What a feast of art, what a classic of diet, it is truly worthy of being "a strange flower in the Shenzhou Flavor Garden." Even small dumplings can go to the world if they are done to the extreme!
Lu Fan couldn't help but think that mediocrity is the norm of life, but as long as there is a heart that is not willing to be mediocre, even "wrapping dumplings" can be done earth-shatteringly.
When checking out, the amount was also very beautiful. Lu Fan never thought that eating a few plates of dumplings and a few small dishes could cost more than 600!
Chen Liqiong laughed: "Does your heart ache? I didn't dare to order expensive ones. It's really not cheap here, just see it."
"It's okay, expensive has its reasons, I think it's worth it, but it can't be a daily meal."
Just as the four were about to go out, Lu Fan froze in place. He actually saw Wang Yewei and a young man entering while chatting and laughing.
Suddenly, their eyes met! Lu Fan smiled slightly and brushed past.
Wang Yewei hurriedly shouted: "Lu Fan!"
Lu Fan turned his head and said: "Yewei, what a coincidence, you came to eat too? We just finished eating, let's go first!"
Wang Yewei chased over and said: "Lu Fan, don't misunderstand, he is my classmate, we met by chance, let's have a meal together."
Du Wenlong tactfully pulled Chen Liqiong and Lu Yao away first, and the boy also went in to find a seat.
In public, the two couldn't say anything, and they walked downstairs to the Bell Tower Square involuntarily.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay, are you okay?"
Wang Yewei was full of sadness, red-eyed and said: "I'm not good, not good at all! Why don't you come to find me?"
"Yewei, I sent you messages for a month in a row, you didn't reply to one."
"Ah? I changed to a new number."
"But you didn't tell me!"
"Lu Fan, I have unspeakable bitterness!"
"Hmm, nine out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory, I understand, I really can understand."
"I heard that Le Xue Ren was transferred away, I was just preparing to go back to find you."
Lu Fan understood a little, smiled bitterly: "Yewei, what if he is transferred back to Yingjiang?"
"Ah? Are you blaming me? When I was timid, I thought about how sad you were, but I thought that things would always pass, and we would be as good as before."
Really meeting, Lu Fan found that he had taken it lightly.
"Yewei, I originally thought you were different from others, we could have a future, so I went forward without hesitation. It is right for you to weigh the pros and cons, I don't blame you."
Lu Fan really wanted to say, it's not that I don't like you, it's not that I don't persist, it's your hesitation that destroyed all my expectations.
Wang Yewei stopped talking, looked at Lu Fan aggrievedly, with a pitiful look, and it took a long time before she said: "Thinking of a person I love but can't get, I wanted to go back to Ningyang to find you countless times, fantasizing about the scene of our meeting, you would definitely feel sorry for me and cherish me. Lu Fan, do you really not love me anymore?"
"Who you meet in this life is destined by fate. If there is no debt, how can we meet? Yewei, I have things I must do. It is my life's mission and the meaning of living. It may make me shattered, or even doomed, but I will still go forward without hesitation. So, the last time will not be the last time. I don't want you to be embarrassed, and I don't want to let you down. Getting it may not be a blessing. We each have a ferry, so let's return to our own boats. The regret you think is actually a disaster you might have avoided. Time will dilute everything, I hope you are happy."
Their eyes met, they looked at each other without words, two people drifting further and further away.
"Yewei, I still have things to do. For the rest of our lives, let's each be well!"
Chen Liqiong said sarcastically: "You heartless radish! I didn't even know you had a girlfriend! And that 'little wife'!"
Lu Fan smiled bitterly and said: "She is an ex-girlfriend, we broke up more than half a year ago. The 'little wife' is in the past, she was returned (engagement broken). Let's go, let's go to the 4S shop and take a look, I want to buy a car!"
Is it an explanation? Chen Liqiong said: "Lu Fan, are you in a bad mood and want to engage in revengeful consumption? You should be careful!"
"Chen Liqiong, I planned to buy a car when I came with Brother Fan, you are really meddling!"
Lu Yao asked: "Brother, are you really going to buy a car?"
"Hmm, don't worry, Brother has money, buy a car for more than 100,000."
Lu Yao could feel her brother's loss, held her brother's arm tightly, and said firmly: "Brother, when I make money in the future, I will definitely change you into a luxury car!"
