Chapter 57 Ch55 Remarks

"Shortly after that, the bastard and his dream arranged for the next meeting place to be in the fated Barcelona."

Two years later, Qin Zheng finally told this story to another person in the story.

Shen Teng was a little surprised, and after a while, he laughed again.

"I don't know all of this... I just remember waking up and finding our sometimes long call log. When I asked you, you still lied to me that it was 'misdialing' and 'falling asleep after picking it up at night and forgetting to hang up. break'."

But in fact, Shen Teng should have realized that this rare long and difficult reply was just an excuse.

"Can you tell me about your past," Shen Teng wished Qin Zheng a story, "I want to hear the most detailed version."

Qin Zheng was very cooperative: "Where do we start?"

Shen Tomato thought for a while: "I know everything about my childhood, let's start with you going abroad."

"Going abroad..." Qin Zheng squinted his eyes, as if recalling the past that seemed to have passed a century.

"Actually, I planned to release it a year later, but in the winter of my sophomore year, something happened to Xu's family. At that time, my father was concentrating on how to get out of the whole body and make a fortune, so he decided to send out his troubles and weaknesses first. "

Although Qin Zheng's grades were mediocre in middle school, he had to do a lot of preparations to go abroad. After leaving Yancheng, he entered a high-end private high school in Manhattan for a year, and finally successfully applied to UCLA, which was ranked very well.On the eve of graduating from university, Qin Zheng returned to China to attend Ji Chen's wedding, and then went to Zambia. In the summer of the same year, after returning to Los Angeles, he entered the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business and officially started his business.

But the road has not been smooth.

Because he rejected his father's request to return to China directly after graduating from university, although the financial support remains the same, Qin Zheng no longer receives the support from many sources like he did when he was an undergraduate.Sometimes, those originally benevolent faces reveal a coldness that is even more repulsive than when facing others.Compared with other rich second generations, Qin Zheng, who was gifted by his father with more obstacles, had to "start from scratch", but compared to those who really started from scratch, Qin Zheng did belong to the circle of the rich second generation. class".

In short, he didn't take advantage of both ends, and managed to get a few real partners together, and achieved a little success, but it was still tepid.After graduating from USC, Qin Zheng stayed in California for almost a year. It was not until the spring of the following year that he separated from Shen Teng in Buenos Aires that he packed up his things and set off to return home.

"Why did you suddenly decide to go back?" Shen Teng asked softly.

When he was in Argentina, Shen Teng was immersed in self-struggle, and he felt a strange sense of detachment when looking at everything, but now in retrospect, maybe he was not the only one who fell into the silent void in the deep sea blue at that time.

Qin Zheng smiled: "At that time—it was nothing, it's just that there was no better choice waiting for me."

In other words, in fact, he rarely has the opportunity to make his own choices.

Qin Zheng went abroad not because he was interested in the educational environment abroad, but because everything had been arranged long ago.

Qin Zheng returned to China later, not because he was homesick, but because he had no choice.

Not long before that, Qin Zheng's dishonest elder brother who was dishonest abroad got involved in a big lawsuit again, and this time, he never had the chance to be sent to other places to ambiguously pass.

To be honest, this is not surprising. Qin Zheng already knew that such a day would come, even if their parents didn't say it, they should have known it in their hearts.But when this day really came, it was like the last straw that weighed on her body. Qin's mother's spirit quickly collapsed, and Qin's father, who had long since lost expectations for his eldest son, no longer concealed his love for Qin Zheng. Persecution to return home.

Over the years, Qin Zheng's career has indeed gradually improved. Although his father's network can reach the other side of the ocean, it is beyond his reach. Compared with the classic plot of "father and son fighting", financiers on the west coast value the ability to realize their talents. Ability means that the ups and downs of the market are inevitable, and Qin Zheng can also become a mast in that uncertain future.

Just like the only aunt who didn't expect him to return to China said, even if Qin Zheng's surname is no longer Qin from now on, he can rely on himself to obtain a meaningful life.

But he came back eventually.

Part of the reason is that he is not sure what crazy move his poor father can do to affect the career he and his partner have built for several years. Each accounted for half.

Of course, Qin Zheng can choose to stay in California, confront his parents or even sever relations completely, but to be honest, that desire is not strong.

The failed rebellion in his youth seemed to have burned out the rebellious bones in Qin Zheng's body. Whether he stayed or not, he just chose a choice that seemed to be better for everyone except himself.

It doesn't matter.

he thinks.

Maybe my whole life will go on like this, boring, indifferent, and at the mercy of others.

It doesn't matter.

But Shen Teng appeared.

Obviously that person was seeking death, but somehow ignited Qin Zheng's vitality.

On the way to Jiangcheng Airport by car, the wind outside the window was wrapped in the fragrance of damp soil, which was so vivid for the first time on my face.

Qin Zheng thought, let him escape without any scruples.

This time, Qin Zheng only lived for himself.

Shen Teng's eyes were very gentle, as if he remembered something, he smiled and nodded Qin Zheng's nose.

"Before returning to China, did you 'break' with your partner?"

Qin Zheng lowered his eyelids, as if he also found it funny: "Almost."

Regarding Qin Zheng's "self-sacrifice" personal heroism facing patriarchal cowardice, the few Americans who left home to support themselves as adults have expressed some attitudes including but not limited to overturning the table more than once.

Go and never come back, they said.

"Then how did you go back?"

"It's simple."

Qin Zheng submitted a resume.

Shen Tom was surprised: "It's that simple?"

Qin Zheng nodded: "It's that simple."

The other party recruited a partner, so his former partner sent a resume to the mailbox that he knew even the password, and received an online interview notice three days later.

Just thinking about the picture of Qin Zheng sitting alone in the apartment facing his ex-colleagues is funny, Shen Teng supported his face and asked with a smile: "What is your interview question?"

"It's also very simple."

——Are you leaving this time?

— not going away.

--Welcome.

After the other side announced the interview results expressionlessly, the people sitting on both sides picked up the colorful flower tubes and set off two fireworks at the same time with a "bang", and then those idiots laughed without any discord with their heads full of colored ribbons Out: "Welcome home, Cactus!"

Welcome home.

Whether it is Shen Teng or Qin Zheng, in fact, they have not been alone since a long time ago.

Qin Zheng suddenly thought: "By the way, they have been clamoring to see you."

Shen Teng was a little surprised: "They also know me?"

Qin Zheng: "Your existence in my phone is not a secret."

Shen Teng narrowed his eyes.

He has always been curious about what he, as a contact in the address book, has written to Qin Zheng among the thousands of data in that small mobile phone.

When they met for the first time, they just exchanged names and parted ways tacitly.And after spending the last night together in Zambia, Shen Teng still took the lead in leaving in the early morning like the last time, but the difference from all encounters in his past life was that this time, before leaving, he unexpectedly suppressed his contact information. It was on Qin Zheng's bedside.

He didn't know whether the other party would enter that string of numbers into his address book, and he wasn't even sure whether Qin Zheng would find the small note that he had deliberately hidden when he woke up.But soon, when Shen Toma was sitting in the front row of the off-road vehicle and crossing the grassland to the airport, the mobile phone in his hand shook heaven and earth, and with a "ding dong", the first phone call between him and Qin Zheng was sent. communication.

"Bon Voyage."

From the very beginning, Qin Zheng wished him a smooth journey.

The wind in the prairie is golden in the morning sun, and people can't help but think of some sparkling things.

At that time, Shen Teng bit his lip on the bumpy road and edited his first impression of Qin Zheng into the latest remarks. Perhaps the curvature of the corners of his mouth was raised too much, which attracted curious questions from the guide. The guy put down his phone and smiled With a quick glance, he narrowly introduced the title that originated from "Caesar" to others.

But what was Qin Zheng's note to him?

Is it "Shen Teng", "Shen Jiaying", "Shen" or "Mr. Shen"?

Shen Teng's imagination was weak, and he thought about his surname for a long time. The most creative idea was that Qin Zheng didn't leave any notes for his string of numbers at all.

"There is a note, it hasn't changed since the beginning." Qin Zheng shook his phone, "Do you want to guess?"

Shen Teng propped up his chin with one hand, tilted his head: "Does it have something to do with my last name?"

Qin Zheng shook his head.

Shen Teng's brows were slightly raised in confusion: "It hasn't changed since the beginning... Friends with benefits, lovers, vixens, Zambian version of love at first sight?"

What is this.

Seeing Qin Zheng's face turned sideways, Shen Teng opened his eyes in surprise: "It can't be 'baby'!"

Qin Zheng didn't speak, Shen Teng thought it was true, and coughed lightly in embarrassment: "You, you are so frivolous."

Obviously he was the first to seduce, but now he is the first to be shy.

"It can be changed after today." Qin Zheng smiled thoughtfully for a while, then looked at Shen Teng again, "But it's not this."

Don't sell him to death.

Shen Teng made a gesture to grab the phone directly, but Qin Zheng raised his arms in advance and let him miss.If the mountain is not just me, Shen Teng took out his mobile phone without changing his face, drew out the number of "Tsar" and dialed it.

Qin Zheng didn't stop him either, and after a few seconds, the screen he held in his hand lit up.

Shen Teng raised his head triumphantly, and slowly squeezed his smile after seeing the line of Chinese characters clearly. He was absent-minded for a moment, exhaled lightly, and finally heaved a gentle sigh of relief as if relieved.

"Don't forget him"

From the very beginning, every time, every time when I suddenly received a message from Shen Teng without warning, every time when I finally sent the message in the dialog box after thinking about it, every time I saw him, every time I sent After leaving him, every time he turned around and left and didn't know whether he would meet again, Qin Zheng thought only: "Don't forget him."

Even if the remark is not a concise and clear "treasure", it seems that he has indeed been the only precious treasure buried in the pure land of Qin Zheng's heart from the very beginning.

I want to say a lot, but it seems that everything has been said.

"Are you going home today?" Shen Teng finally asked.

Qin Zheng smiled: "Do you want me to go home?"

Shen Teng pretended to think for a while, and kindly suggested: "Why don't you go back."

He smiled: "I want to look at you."

"I love myself too much," Shen Teng said, "but now I seem to love you even more."

So honest, it's almost overwhelming.

And since you can't stand it, then don't fight it, just stay.

stay in my future.
