Chapter 407

Just after Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You finished reporting the news of Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang's awakening to Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin and put down the phone, he turned his head and saw Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang coming out of Luo Gong's room.

"A-You, do you have any money on you? Lend me some."

"I have some here." Chen Lin opened her wallet, took out all the money inside, and handed it over.

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang took it without counting, put it directly into his pocket, and nodded, saying: "Thanks. Pick any apartment in this building, and I'll have the title transferred to you."

Chen Lin: "I can't take that. Even the shadiest loan sharks aren't that exaggerated."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "This is to thank you for decocting medicine and taking care of me and my teacher. It's medical expenses."

Chen Lin: "Then I definitely can't take it. If I accept it, things will become distant between us."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang smiled.

Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You: "Brother Liang, what are you planning to..."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "Go to the shop outside the residential compound to buy a pair of shoes and socks, and then buy a thin jacket."

Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You: "And then?"

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "Go to work."

Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You: "Go to work?"

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "I've been out of contact for a few days, and too many work matters have been delayed; I have to go handle them. By the way, A-You, do you have a razor here? I'll shave my beard while I'm in the taxi later."

Chen Lin: "The razor is here. Brother Liang, you should shave here before you go out. Besides, I bought your new clothes a long time ago; I'll get them out for you right now."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "You really are thoughtful."

Since there was no need to go buy clothes, there was no need to rush out in a flurry. Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang walked into the bathroom, applied foam to his Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face, and began to shave.

Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You stood at the bathroom door: "Brother Liang, don't you want to rest a bit more?"

"No need, this sleep was truly comfortable."

Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Shu You didn't know what else to say.

A person who had always been working under overload, having just experienced several days of escape and eerie torture, could climb out of bed and continue to work after just one sleep.

After shaving and putting on his clothes, just before leaving, Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang made a gesture of answering a phone:

"After the teacher wakes up, remember to notify me."

"Okay."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang went downstairs, walked out of the residential compound, and got into a taxi.

The teacher had been found; although he was still in a coma, he believed that with Xiao Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan and the others taking care of him, there would be no problems.

Next, he had to first hand over all his work, eliminate the impact of his being out of contact, and then accept and respond to the concern and condolences from all sides.

Finally, due to the temporary interruption of the project and the fact that his own body had just had issues, he would likely be forced by his superiors to take a period of leave.

This way, he would be able to return to Nantong.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang's Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face.

When he learned the text in school as a child, about Great Yu passing his home three times without entering, he didn't understand why he wouldn't just go in and take a look since he was already at the doorstep; it wouldn't have delayed things.

Only after truly participating in work and having many people under his command fighting for the success of various projects did he understand the deep meaning behind it.

Everyone was working tirelessly, sacrificing their rest and time with their families. At such a time, if he were to secretly return to Nantong to jump into the river, even if he could avoid everyone's sight, he wouldn't be able to get past the hurdle in his own heart.

But with this kind of forced leave, he would have no psychological burden.

There was an intersection ahead with many cars, and it was blocked.

The taxi driver honked the horn several times in succession and cursed:

"There are really more and more cars now; it gets blocked to hell at the slightest thing."

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang rested his head against the car window and said: "It's still very few right now."

The taxi driver: "This is still few?"

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang: "Yes, in the future, every household will be able to have a car."

The driver glanced at the passenger sitting in the back row through the rearview mirror, feeling a bit puzzled; looking at his attire, he didn't seem like a fool.

Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Xue Liangliang closed his eyes. A while ago, he had seen a proposal letter written by Elder Minister Minister Minister Qian to the higher-ups not long ago: suggesting that China's automotive industry should directly enter the new energy stage to avoid repeating the mistake of path dependency on traditional fuel vehicle technology.

……

"Brother Xiao Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, A-You just called to say that Brother Liang has gone to work."

"Oh."

"Brother Liang is worthy of being Brother Liang."

"A healthy body and abundant energy are the basic standard equipment for successful people."

As he spoke, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan lowered his head and looked at his own fair, delicate palms.

If he hadn't successfully restored his original body, he would likely be sitting in a wheelchair now because his body couldn't bear the excessive mental burden.

"Brother Xiao Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, last night Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Yunyun told me she had a dream. In the dream, we had two children, both boys, very well-behaved, obedient, and sensible, haha."

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan knew that Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin had sensed something; he was asking him for an answer, yet he was afraid to ask for that answer.

"Brother Bin, who can know about future things?"

"Right, let nature take its course."

The two walked into the teaching building.

"Brother Xiao Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, then I'll go back to class?"

"Mm."

The two parted at the stairwell, surrounded by students carrying books into classrooms.

Although he had decided to return to Nantong, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan planned to go back with Brother Liang to help the Bai family ladies move and arrange a new place to stay.

He had thought about personally persuading Brother Liang to make time, but looking at Brother Liang's posture, he should be clear that he was about to be put on leave.

Staying at school, there was nothing else to do; since he was idle anyway, he might as well attend some classes.

Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin had to go back to class to brush up on his presence as the class monitor.

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan was still the same as before, taking the school-wide schedule to choose the classes he was interested in.

Because there was nothing left to learn in terms of professional expertise, he was more inclined toward other areas.

He walked into the lecture hall and sat in the last row; Professor Zhu's class would be here in a moment.

Before the class bell rang, Professor Zhu walked into the classroom.

The passing of his wife had made him look much thinner, but there was no gloom or decadence on his Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Human Face; he still faced the rest of his life actively and earnestly.

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan remembered Professor Zhu once telling him that only by living well could he have stories to tell his wife when he went down below later.

Professor Zhu initially just scanned the classroom, then, as if he had discovered something, he pushed up his glasses and looked at the young man sitting in the last row.

The class began. Professor Zhu didn't change his past teaching habits, encouraging students to speak freely, ask questions, and even debate.

This was Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan's second year taking Professor Zhu's ideological and political course, and he could clearly feel that the pressure in the classroom was greater than last year.

In an era of great openness, a few people saw the gap narrowing, while the vast majority were in despair directly because of this gap.

This made the traditional "water course" become increasingly filled with the smell of gunpowder.

However, it was the same last year; Professor Zhu never took attendance, but his classes would have more and more students, sometimes even exceeding capacity.

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan listened to the lecture while flipping through the "Wordless Book" again.

The second page was still filled with black ink.

If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the "Evil Book" crazily torturing Ye Dui.

If something unexpected happened, then the one being tortured might be the "Evil Book."

According to normal logic, the interrogation in the book would last a long time, and Ye Dui would reveal more and more clues, gradually leading him toward those three "escapees."

Still the same point: his bold guess from last night could still be reverse-engineered.

Closing the book, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan recalled what Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin had said to him before class.

The young man was pondering: could it be that because the two resentful infants truly couldn't bear the bitterness of studying, they entrusted a dream to pray for their prospective mom and dad to take action sooner and give birth to them?

That wasn't possible. Firstly, they didn't have the capability to entrust dreams; secondly, the two resentful infants had now completely released their pressure and found new fun in learning, thanks to Benben's weight-bearing crawling.

However, through the line of Luo Gong and Ye Dui, it couldn't be ruled out that in the dark, there might truly be such a predestined connection.

The reason Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin could form a bond with his two godchildren also started with Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Zhou Yunyun being cursed, which led to this line.

Class was over.

Professor Zhu walked to the last row and sat down nearby.

"Xiao Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your internship tiring?"

"It's not tiring."

"Come to the teacher's house for lunch at noon? I'll go buy groceries."

"Okay."

"What do you want to eat? I don't have classes in the third and fourth periods this morning."

"Anything is fine."

"Then are you going to my house now, or continuing to attend classes?"

"I'm going to find my other teacher."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home at noon."

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan packed up his things and put on his backpack; there was Elder Zhai's class in the third and fourth periods.

Walking to the door of that classroom, he saw another teacher standing on the podium, preparing to substitute.

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan didn't go in and instead went to the old library, which was the base for Elder Zhai's project team.

After arriving, he found that there were many students inside; everyone cherished such an opportunity and was very earnestly collecting and organizing data.

The project team was already very standardized, and there was a specific person-in-charge list; Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan's photo and name were also on it, and ranked quite high.

However, he was the only one who did not lead a squad.

Quite a few juniors and seniors recognized Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan, and everyone, half-joking and half-serious, addressed this boy who was much younger than them as "Little Senior Brother."

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan inquired with a senior sister.

The senior sister said that Old Zhai had still been here this morning and had only just left a short while ago.

After thanking her, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan left.

He went to the faculty housing building again.

The door was still unlocked, and Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan entered as usual.

He searched from the first floor to the third floor; the person was not there, but the note he had left on the dining table last night was gone.

This indicated that Old Zhai was deliberately avoiding him.

This time, the boy did not feel that his "Master" was going to shave his beard again.

Because, at this moment, the deliberate absence actually had a better effect than meeting in person.

Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin said that last night, Seeing Yin Meng had left half a wall of words for Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Runsheng.

While this certainly could not be separated from Seeing Yin Meng's personal efforts, there should also have been the factor of the Great Emperor relaxing the permissions.

This in itself was another kind of hint.

Before leaving the faculty housing building, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan left a new note.

During class hours, the school appeared very quiet.

Occasionally, an old senior would pass by in front, disheveled, wearing slippers and large shorts, shrinking his neck in the chilly autumn wind as he walked toward the cafeteria to get food early before returning to the dormitory.

He arrived at Professor Zhu's home, knocked on the door, and walked in.

"Little Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, sit down quickly. There's one more soup, it'll be ready in a moment."

Three dishes and one soup, home-cooked meals with a light flavor.

After the meal, Professor Zhu refused Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan's help with the dishes, so the boy took some scissors and went to help prune the potted plants in Professor Zhu's courtyard.

These had all been cultivated when Professor Zhu's late wife was still alive; they were well cared for, well, just a bit unkempt, like the old senior he had just seen.

After Professor Zhu finished his work and came out, he watched the boy pruning in silence, then couldn't help but sigh:

"In my hands, they have been wronged."

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan: "Growing freely and being unkempt is also a kind of aesthetic; besides, one can gain a greater sense of accomplishment after pruning."

Professor Zhu: "Little Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan, if you had been able to get into this university a few years earlier, I don't know how happy she would have been."

As the words fell, Professor Zhu patted his own forehead; if he had gotten into this university a few years earlier, how old would this child even be?

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan smiled.

After leaving Professor Zhu's home, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan went to attend his afternoon classes.

Old habit: sit in the last row.

As it turned out, just before class started, the last row was filled up; the teacher was lecturing on the podium, while the students in the back two rows were sleeping, the sunlight covering them through the back windows of the tiered classroom, and one could almost hear the faint, crisp sound of decadent youth by one's ears.

After class, Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan packed his things and returned to the dormitory.

When passing the entrance of the shop, he saw Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Runsheng moving cargo inside, and Lu Yi, who had just been discharged from the hospital, was already sitting behind the counter balancing the accounts.

Life is like a river; no matter how many stones are thrown into it or how large the splashes are, in the end, it will continue its flow.

Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin returned to the dormitory a little behind Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan.

"Little Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Yuan Ge, I signed for and collected your and A You's scholarships together; the money was anonymously donated to the financial aid project for impoverished students that Brother Liang established at this school."

"Mm."

In the dormitory, the two sat back-to-back at their respective desks and began to read.

At dusk, Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Tan Wenbin put away his books and went out; he had organized a class dinner for the evening.

Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Li Zhuiyuan did not go.

After nightfall, the shop closed.

Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Lu Runsheng returned to his basement room, set up the altar table, and burned paper.

Last night, Seeing Yin Meng had "said" a lot, but it cut off just as she was about to mention him.

He was quite looking forward to what Seeing Yin Meng would say to him tonight.

In the fire basin, the yellow paper burned to ash.

A wisp of yin wind, much smaller than yesterday's, appeared, stirred up a tiny bit of ash, and gently tapped against the wall.

"Yesterday was tired, condition poor; today, no words."
