Chapter 43 Love and Sincerity(1/2)
In the afternoon law and regulations exam, it took Lynch 40 minutes to complete all the questions, and then he spent another 20 minutes checking the questions several times for which the answers were uncertain before submitting the answers.
Real man!
Be careful and cautious!
After coming out of the examination room, Lin Qi took a taxi, picked up Zhang Xiaoxiao at the shopping mall, and then went straight to the bus station. After arriving at the bus station, the two of them bought tickets and took the bus to Yangcheng, which is about a hundred kilometers away.
, City Z where Zhou Bin is currently located.
Lin Qi's visit to City Z this time to visit Zhou Bin was not a temporary move.
But after the friends who stayed behind in City S learned about Lin Qi's trip to Yangcheng, they specifically asked Lin Qi to bring everyone's earnest concern and come to City Z to visit Zhou Bin, so that he would know that the organization had not forgotten him.
At around 6 p.m., Lin Qi and Zhang Xiaoxiao arrived in City Z.
At this time, Zhou Bin and his girlfriend Wang Manxia were already waiting outside the station.
Zhou Bin was naturally extremely excited about Lynch's arrival.
With no one around in City Z, he finally had a personal experience of what it was like to be away from home in the past two or three months.
Even when I was studying before, I was still in a foreign country.
But after all, there are many practical problems. There is still a huge difference between facing them as a social person and as a college student. Even if he has a local girlfriend to accompany him, there are still many things that he needs to go through.
Adaptable and accustomed.
For example, on the second day after Zhou Bin came to City Z, there was a problem with the details of renting a house, which made him homeless that night.
Due to his unfamiliarity with life and his inexplicable self-esteem, he actually didn't want Wang Manxia to see that he was so unlucky that he couldn't handle even the smallest of things.
So he had the first experience of being homeless in his life. That night, he wandered alone on an unfamiliar road for a long time. In the end, he couldn't resist the fear of sleeping on the street, so he dragged his large and small luggage into a very cheap and shabby room.
Just one night in the hotel.
And he could never forget the lingering sour musty smell in that room, as well as the mottled stains of unknown origin on the yellowed sheets.
After that, Zhou Bin was extremely anxious because of the delay in completing his work. The kind of life with only expenses and no income every day, and seeing the little available money left in him was still decreasing little by little, was really frustrating.
It makes people extremely uneasy.
This anxiety lasted for more than a month.
Fortunately, Zhou Bin and Wang Manxia are still in a stage of deep affection, strong fire, and love.
After the immediate difficulties are temporarily resolved, persistence and yearning for love can easily cover up those negative emotions in life.
Even if you are drinking the thickest chicken soup and living the hardest life.
For Zhou Bin at this moment, it is absolutely a joy.
"Hey, isn't this our brother Jin Chengwu from Changping? We haven't seen each other for a few days, but he is becoming more and more handsome and charming!"
"No, how can I compare with our Mr. Lin? He looks more and more noble!"
In front of the station, Lin Qi and Zhou Bin gave each other a tight hug.
When old friends meet again after a long absence, they must greet each other in the most unique and intimate way.
After saying hello, it was natural to introduce each other to their accompanying family members.
In fact, Zhang Xiaoxiao and Wang Manxia had met several friends of Lin Qi, Zhou Bin and their small group before, so they mainly introduced the two girls to each other.
I have to say that in terms of appearance alone, Wang Manxia is indeed barely worthy of our handsome classmate Zhou.
Zhang Xiaoxiao stood with her and immediately changed from the level of a passerby to the level of a green leaf.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the four of them set off for dinner together.
Dinner was booked at a local high-end Cantonese restaurant.
Originally, Wang Manxia was not very satisfied with Zhou Bin's arrangement. She felt that choosing this place was a bit too high when it came to entertaining friends. What's more, Zhou Bin had only worked for less than a month after finally finding a job, and he didn't even have a complete and natural job.
I haven't even received my monthly salary, so there is really no need to spend so much money.
But Zhou Bin stuck to his point of view, because there were some situations that were neither convenient for him nor willing to explain to Wang Manxia directly.
Faced with Zhou Bin's almost arbitrary persistence, Wang Manxia finally gave Zhou Bin enough respect.
She also took the initiative to enthusiastically and thoughtfully participate in entertaining Lin Qi and Zhang Xiaoxiao throughout the whole process, showing her awareness of her dual identity as a local and heroine very thoroughly, which can be regarded as giving Zhou Bin enough face.
This restaurant is high-end and has its own high-end foundation.
Not to mention how good the food is, at least the environment is good and the service is good, so the meal tastes relatively comfortable and pleasant.
Of course, their food is also very good.
Lynch is most satisfied with the two dishes: ginger pork knuckle and roasted squab.
You must know that there are as many restaurants as there are stars that can make these two dishes, but only a handful can really do them well.
Especially roasted squab, the most important thing is the skill and patience of the chef.
But what is a little surprising is that as a local, Wang Manxia actually went to this restaurant for the first time.
Coming from an ordinary working-class family, she really had no chance to interact with this restaurant in her previous life.
Now that she finally has the opportunity to experience it in person, it is like opening the door to a new world for her.
Among the four, she, a local, ate the most excitedly, and her eyes were full of eager yearning.
Seeing all this in Lin Qi's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little scared inside.
Damn it, just because of tonight's meal, this sister's vanity talent will be awakened early.
If this is really the case, it will harm our Zhou Bin children's shoes.
After the dinner, which was enjoyed by the guests and the host, Lynch and Zhou Bin walked to the front desk arm in arm, and then staged another boring drama of pushing and shoving each other to pay the bill.
In the end, classmate Zhou Bin was the better one and defeated Lin Qi as the host, successfully made the payment and earned some cards in front of his girlfriend Wang Manxia.
Then Lynch, who had been traveling for two consecutive days, decisively rejected Zhou Bin's nightlife program arrangement.
Following the nightlife of two female relatives, can you arrange a good yarn show?
It would be outrageous to let go of the women and act alone.
So, under the leadership of Wang Manxia, the four of them briefly visited the local customs and customs around the restaurant where they would have dinner tonight, and then found a foot massage parlor along the way that looked decently decorated, and went in to relax and relieve fatigue.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Lin Qi took Zhang Xiaoxiao back to the hotel he had booked to rest.
A night of silence.
Life in Guangfu is known for its leisurely and carefree life, and young people are generally less likely to get up early on weekends.
This kind of daily routine even affected Lynch, who was already used to getting up early, making him start to rely on the alarm clock again.
At about 11 o'clock in the morning the next day, a group of four people, yawning profusely, came to a Cantonese teahouse recommended by Wang Manxia for brunch.
Lin Qi, who has been driving and taking exams for the past two days, can be forgiven for being a little depressed, but someone like Zhou Bin, who is also in a daze, is very intriguing!
After eating, Zhou Bin and Wang Manxia saw Lin Qi and the others to the station.
While waiting for the bus, a pair of good friends left for a while on the pretext of smoking.
Although Zhang Xiaoxiao doesn't like Lynch smoking, she will turn a blind eye to Lynch's smoking whenever outsiders are present.
smoking zone.
I saw a lot of people, old and young, puffing away at the place.
Lin Qi was secretly taking out a cowhide envelope from his trouser pocket, and then stuffed it into Zhou Bin's trouser pocket.
"Actually, it's not necessary, right? I can still afford to entertain you."
Zhou Bin still seemed a little hesitant about what his subordinate Lin Qi thrust into him.
After hearing this, Lin Qi rolled his eyes and spread his hands.
"Then you go talk to Chen Jianan yourself, tell me it's useless, and I will be responsible for delivering it!"
Inside the envelope was actually the activity funds given by Lynch to Zhou Bin, reimbursing him for treating Lynch to dinner and washing his feet last night.
According to Mr. Chen Jianan's original words: "Lin Qi went to visit Zhou Bin on behalf of everyone, so naturally Lin Qi or Zhou Bin cannot be allowed to bear additional costs. All Lin Qi's consumption in city Z should be borne by mutual funds."
The so-called mutual fund is the futures account under Chen Jianan's name. When Chen Jianan opened the account, he said that if the account makes money in the future, everyone will spend the money together.
And Lynch's Z-market trip obviously fits the consumption category of "Together Flowers".
Although Zhou Bin was not in City S, he still knew clearly through Penguin and Penguin Group that Lin Qi had made a lot of money for Chen Jianan's account.
This was also the reason why he insisted on choosing the high-end restaurant last night.
Of course, he was really embarrassed to speak frankly to Wang Manxia about someone reimbursing expenses. After all, the money had nothing to do with him. It was neither the principal nor the increase in value. He was just a free prostitute. .
Is there anything worth showing off about it?
Lin Qi still rolled his eyes to the sky: "If you didn't want to pretend to be 13 last night and found such a high-end restaurant, brother, I would have invited you to do it. As a result, you suddenly became so high-end. , you can still afford to make such a fuss, stop pretending, and put the money away quickly. If it falls, will you cry to death?"
Lin Qi was very aware of Zhou Bin's financial situation in City Z, and his family's resistance to him leaving his hometown, which meant that he did not receive much support from his family at all.
When Zhou Bin heard this, he smiled awkwardly and stopped talking nonsense.
When good friends have enough understanding, telling lies to save face is not only meaningless, but also seems extremely offensive.
