Chapter 1252: Classmates
This time the class reunion took place at a small restaurant in front of the school.
Qian Baobao and Liu Xiaogang both brought their wives and children.
Compared with the gathering of the three of them in Beijing a few years ago, this time it was much more lively.
Liu Xiaogang is wearing a suit and leather shoes, and he looks a bit like a small leader. Compared with the look he had just written on his face a few years ago, he is much more low-key and profound.
Qian Baobao has not changed much. The only change may be that his figure has gained a little weight and the glasses on the bridge of his nose are a little thicker.
"Come on, let's go." Jiang Xiaobai sat in the dark tavern holding a wine glass, but he didn't feel disgusted at all.
The greasy tabletop and dim lights were their old place when they were in school. Whoever found a partner, whoever fell out of love, celebrated the New Year, celebrated the holidays...it was all in this small restaurant.
I remember that there were not many small restaurants near the school at that time, there were just a few.
Most people still use their tickets to eat at the canteen.
Now that life is getting better, although there is not a row of restaurants in front of the school, there are quite a few.
But this little restaurant has hardly changed.
"Let's go one." Liu Xiaogang and Qian Baobao were also filled with emotion.
Things have changed, and eight years have passed in the blink of an eye.
"Brother Xiaobai, you are different now. You are a well-known private entrepreneur in the country. Baobao and I are still like this."
In fact, Liu Xiaogang is doing well among his classmates, and he is already a leader at a young age.
However, there are too many leaders in this place in the capital, and his level is really nothing.
In comparison, it is Jiang Xiaobai who is doing business, and now he is doing a great job.
"It's me, Liu Chu, who is still like this..." Qian Baobao said with a smile. Liu Xiaozheng is still a leader after all, young and promising.
Now he is Director Liu, and in a few years he might be Director Liu.
And he is still a university teacher.
As for comparing with Jiang Xiaobai, let alone that.
"Stop laughing at me. What kind of leader am I? In fact, I quite envy you. You are in the ivory tower of the university.
As long as you focus on teaching and educating people, you don't have to worry about anything else, unlike us in government agencies who scheming all day long.
I don’t know how many people are vying for a vacant position, openly or secretly. It’s really like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers, and it’s really tiring.” Liu Xiaogang said with bitterness.
In fact, he usually wouldn't say this to anyone, but today at the class reunion, none of them were outsiders, so he talked about what was in his heart.
"Teaching and educating people, people in schools are also panicking now. Haven't you heard of the guy who says that those who make atomic bombs are not as good as those who make tea eggs?
There was a professor who resigned last year and went to Pengcheng to do business. Everyone is looking for money and making a lot of money..." Qian Baobao said.
Everyone at the table looked at Jiang Xiaobai, who was in business, and wanted to see what he had to say.
Liu Xiaogang also agreed with Qian Baobao and said: "Yes, doing business is fun. When Xiaobai wanted to go into business, we thought he was crazy.
It turns out now that Xiaobai is very far-sighted. If he went to our work unit at my level, he would probably only serve tea and pour water..."
Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and said: "I won't talk about how difficult it is to run a small business. Now Huaqing Holdings is doing well in China, right?"
"That's great."
"It must be possible." Liu Xiaogang and Qian Baobao nodded in agreement.
"That's it. I spend less than half a year at home, either on a business trip or on a business trip. I even stay at home for about three months.
When I come to the capital this time, the itinerary is very dense, and what you see is only the scenic side..."
On the contrary, Jiang Xiaobai also envied Qian Baobao's life, teaching and educating people quietly in the university.
Eight years after graduation, the three men met again at the school gate, not to express their bitterness, but to simply talk about the difficulties of life.
However, Qian Baobao is quite optimistic. He is very satisfied with his current life. Just like Liu Xiaogang and Jiang Xiaobai said, he can teach and educate people with peace of mind in the university.
At the same time, I watch my children slowly grow up healthily and happily.
As for leaders and rich people, they have nothing to do with him. If you give him another chance, it will be the same choice.
"It's not easy for Xiaobai. The leaders are busy. Come on, let's have another drink. After dinner, let's go around the school and remember our lost youth..." Liu Xiaogang suggested.
"Okay, no problem." Qian Baobao expressed his position as a school teacher.
Jiang Xiaobai actually wanted to go in and have a look, but he hadn't been back for many years.
I have come to the capital a lot of times, but every time I pass by in a hurry, Qian Baobao has never seen him more than once.
None of the three of them drank much. If they did drink, they could drink until late at night.
But the three of them have things to do tomorrow, especially Jiang Xiaobai, whose schedule is full.
In a tipsy state, Qian Baobao asked the doorman to open the door.
"I'll bring my classmates back to have a look." Qian Baobao said with a smile.
"Okay, Teacher Qian." The security guard nodded and muttered as he opened the school door.
It is not uncommon to bring classmates back. There are also people who come back to visit their alma mater after graduation, let alone those who have classmates who are in school.
But people usually come during the day, so why would they come at night?
The familiar campus is always so young, carrying the youth of generations of young people, and it is their best time.
Watching men and women holding books and walking through the campus.
The two girls were whispering to each other, and the boys were laughing and joking.
There is also that couple who are interested in each other, but they dare not confess their feelings and keep a distance of fifty centimeters while walking.
If you get too close, your face will turn red immediately.
Occasionally, the fingers touch each other, as if a taboo has been broken.
In the brightly lit library, there are always many diligent people working hard for their future.
On the basketball court, boys are swaying their remaining energy wantonly.
The reluctant men and women in front of the dormitory door whispered to each other face to face.
"Baby, when you stay with such a group of people, no wonder you feel younger than us. You don't look like a thirty-year-old, but like a twenty-year-old." Jiang Xiaobai sighed with emotion.
"What's twenty years old? It would be great if I were twenty years old. Look at the break dancing in the clubs over there. I can't even understand what young people are doing nowadays..." Qian Baobao said with a smile on his face.
