Chapter 174

"Bang bang bang~ bang bang bang~"

Early in the morning, Dormitory 209 was suddenly knocked on. After Chen Sihai from the lower bunk opened the door, Li Huaisheng and Yang Yumin brought a few people from the Wangxiang Gujun Literature Society and broke in angrily.

"Li Ye, Li Ye, you're still sleeping, get up... eh eh, let go, let go."

Li Huaisheng reached out to lift Li Ye's quilt, but was subconsciously grabbed by the wrist by Li Ye, who had just woken up.

Li Ye heard Li Huaisheng's cry of pain, then hurriedly withdrew his strength, shook his hungover head, and sat up wrapped in the quilt.

Last night he was pulled over by Yu Liansheng and Shang Changchun, and then surrounded enthusiastically by a group of '79 students. As they talked, someone brought out wine.

That round of drinking made his legs soft for the first time in his life.

"Old Li, what are you doing here early in the morning? I only slept at three in the morning."

"You still have the nerve to say that?"

Li Huaisheng rubbed his wrist and said angrily: "You explain to me, what is 'don't talk about state affairs'?"

"'Don't talk about state affairs' is a line from the play 'Teahouse'. You don't even understand this and you're still doing literature?"

"You're still playing dumb with us, right?"

Yang Yumin came over from behind, grabbed the corner of Li Ye's quilt, and laughed and scolded: "We usually discuss current affairs with you, and you brat just say 'don't talk about state affairs, don't talk about state affairs', acting like a woman and not straightforward at all.

Then tell me, what did you do last night? Hmm? If it weren't for Bian Jingjing telling us, we wouldn't know you had such a big mouth! Good guy, you dare to blow big air in front of Mr. Zhang, you're capable!"

"Exactly, so you don't dislike talking about state affairs, you just don't talk about state affairs with us? You're looking down on people, right? What's the matter, you think our level isn't high enough?"

Only then did Li Ye understand why Li Huaisheng and Yang Yumin came to knock on the door early in the morning. It turned out they were nitpicking over this.

"What is all this? I was forced last night. You don't know the scene at that time..."

"We just don't know the scene at that time, so we came to find you to tell us. Get up quickly and go with us, everyone is waiting for you!"

"I... fine, fine!"

Li Ye really couldn't resist Li Huaisheng and the others, so he had to put on his clothes and follow them downstairs while yawning.

When going downstairs, Li Huaisheng noticed Li Ye's pale face, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in his breathing.

He couldn't help but ask: "How much did you drink yesterday?"

Li Ye said without losing face: "Didn't drink much, mainly because the wine was too poor and went to my head."

Yang Yumin asked with a smile: "Who did you drink with?"

Li Ye thought carefully and said: "Yu Liansheng, Shang Changchun, Yin Xiurong... too many, can't remember."

Li Huaisheng and Yang Yumin were stunned for a moment, then said: "You've mixed with that group of '79ers who came to school with salaries?"

"Came to school with salaries? What do you mean?"

"Hi, you drank all night and don't even know this,"

Li Huaisheng explained to Li Ye while walking: "Before Yu Liansheng was admitted to Jingda, he was a coal mine section chief. Shang Changchun is even more amazing; he was already a section chief before coming to Jingda.

As a result, after they came to school, their original units still paid them salaries as usual. They were wealthy, so they were naturally generous in their dealings, and they were very popular in the '79 class..."

Li Ye said unexpectedly: "Are they that amazing?"

"Is this anything?" Li Huaisheng said dismissively: "You haven't seen those people from the '77 and '78 classes. There are plenty of deputy section chiefs and brigade leaders."

"Let's put it this way! If you don't have real ability, you don't dare to run for class cadre. Ordinary party members want to be a small group leader, they all have to compete with others."

My goodness.

Li Ye was somewhat fortunate that he was admitted in '82, avoiding those monsters from '77 and '78.

Just talking to Yu Liansheng and the others last night, the feeling was completely different from Zhen Rongrong and the others in the class.

They had grassroots work experience, their IQ and EQ were not low, and they had supplemented their culture and horizons at Jingda. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them pentagonal warriors.

With such talents continuously investing in the construction of the Zhonghua family, it's no wonder that this ancient empire would continue to develop and take off rapidly for decades.

Li Ye was pulled by Li Huaisheng and Yang Yumin to the activity room of the Wangxiang Gujun Literature Society. As soon as he entered the door, Li Ye was suddenly surprised.

Everyone in the literature society had arrived, and there were even many faces he had never seen before.

Li Ye felt the collective attention of everyone and couldn't help but smile: "What is this situation?"

"What situation? The situation where you became famous."

Li Huaisheng pushed Li Ye onto a chair, and then everyone dragged their chairs over, surrounding Li Ye in the center.

"Tell us quickly, what exactly happened last night?"

"Right, right, right, we heard that it was that international student who first angered Mr. Zhang, and then you scolded him to tears."

"Li Ye, you said yesterday that we have always been at the card table. Are we really that strong?"

Li Ye finally understood why in this day and age, everyone would rush out of the school and release their joy wantonly on the street just because of the victory of a sports game.

Classmates being too emotional was one aspect. In addition, under the impact of the consciousness of developed countries, everyone really needed some evidence to enhance their national self-confidence.

"I actually didn't express many opinions last night, there was mainly one point!"

Li Ye said firmly: "It doesn't matter if others look down on us, but we must not look down on ourselves."

"If we talk from some small aspects, we may be backward, such as our civilian technology, which is far behind the little days, and our per capita living standard, which is far behind many developed countries,"

"but this does not prevent us from being an undisputed regional power."

Li Ye smiled and said: "Actually, everyone just needs to study the history of the past few decades carefully, and you will know that in this territory of East Asia,

no matter which country wants to do something big, they need to go through our consent."

"Li Ye, this is too exaggerated, right?"

"I also think it's exaggerated, but I am very willing to believe it's true, hahahaha~"

The classmates were all skeptical and didn't agree with Li Ye's words.

After all, they weren't born into a family like Wen Leyu's, where they could come into contact with certain facts, nor were they like Li Ye, who could see Ai Yuejin and a large amount of declassified era data on the internet in later generations.

The Zhonghua family used decades of time to prove to the world that in this territory of East Asia, it might not be easy for me to do something, but if I want to ruin your business, it's not difficult either.

"Actually, what I did last night is the same as everyone's usual purpose," Li Ye said: "Everyone writes history to inspire our national self-confidence, and my debate with that Nakamura Naoto is also to remind everyone not to be self-deprecating..."

Everything has two sides.

The Zhonghua family in '82 was backward in many aspects, but in many aspects, it was also something others couldn't catch up with even if they whipped their horses.

Li Ye tried his best to avoid some sensitive troubles and patiently explained some things to everyone, letting everyone present see the advantageous side of the Zhonghua family.

"Ding leng leng~"

The sound of a bicycle stopped at the door of the activity room, and a classmate ran in with a telegram.

"Look quickly, the Blue Sea Publishing House sent a telegram, congratulating our 'Looking Back at the Lonely Army' for being serialized in Hong Kong."

"..."

"Let me see quickly!"

Li Huaisheng snatched the telegram, read it carefully twice, and then handed it to the impatient Yang Yumin.

Then, a small telegram was passed through everyone's hands. Everyone read it once, and everyone was incredibly happy.

Happy laughter lasted for a long time in the activity room. A few students clapped the tables happily, excited beyond words.

"Li Ye, you're right, we must let more people feel proud and proud of our nation."

In the end, even the Youth League Committee got the news and came over to discuss this "big event" with Li Huaisheng and the others.

The loyal Li Huaisheng didn't forget to push Li Ye to the front: "Thanks to Li Ye's suggestion at the time, otherwise we wouldn't have dared to think about spreading our thoughts to Hong Kong!"

"I just made a suggestion," Li Ye was modest, and then said: "You guys say, will Hong Kong magazines be like their martial arts novels, not just sold locally in Hong Kong, but spread to the entire Chinese-speaking circle?"

"..."

Li Huaisheng, Yang Yumin, and the people from the Youth League Committee all became solemn.

"This matter must be taken seriously."

"Must be taken seriously."

"We need support..."

"Must support you."

Unknowingly, the importance of the Wangxiang Gujun Literature Society was raised again.

Because of the entanglement of Li Huaisheng and the others, Li Ye skipped class for the first time.

When he arrived at the classroom door in the afternoon, he saw the head teacher, Mu Yunning, waiting for him with cold eyes.

Mu Yunning blocked Li Ye outside the door and said coldly: "Do you think you've become a celebrity, so you can skip class?"

"Teacher, really no," Li Ye said: "I was pulled over by Li Huaisheng and the others this morning, and happened to run into..."

Li Ye's explanation didn't make Mu Yunning's face look much better.

She looked at Li Ye coldly and said: "Do you know why I'm waiting for you here?"

Li Ye guessed: "Are you going to take me to the Dean's Office for a trip?"

Mu Yunning sneered: "You're really smart, you guessed it right."

Li Ye nodded and said: "Then let's go! If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster; if it's a disaster, you can't hide from it."

"What are you in such a hurry for?" Mu Yunning said in a commanding tone: "Write a self-criticism for me first, 500 words will do, and then I'll go try first. It won't be too late for you to go if you can't hide."

"Teacher Mu, I don't know how to write a self-criticism."

"You can compile a book, but you can't compile a 500-word self-criticism? You're lying to ghosts!"

Mu Yunning felt she was going crazy, and didn't know what sin she had committed in her previous life to encounter such a troublesome student.

However, just as she was about to explode, she saw Professor Zhang holding a lesson plan book and walking over from the other end of the corridor.

Seeing Li Ye and Mu Yunning outside the door, Professor Zhang smiled and said: "Why aren't you going in yet? Not having class?"

Mu Yunning then said: "Professor Zhang, are you teaching this class?"

Professor Zhang nodded and said: "Xiao Wang is not feeling well, so I'm substituting for him for one class."

Mu Yunning was speechless.

Teacher Wang is not feeling well? Then who was playing basketball on the basketball court at noon?

Professor Zhang smiled and didn't say anything more, but patted Li Ye on the shoulder and said: "Go in! After class, come with me for a trip."

"..."

Mu Yunning finally understood that this big boss was going to cover for Li Ye.

It turned out that her thinking this and that was just worrying for nothing!
