Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 1053 1053. Chinese Week (39)

After bidding farewell to all his old and new friends at the university, Wang Shunan reluctantly walked around the campus for a few more times before going down the mountain with Dong Qiangqiang.

  When the car passed the vineyard terraces halfway, although it was getting dark, Wang Shunan still saw the cows grazing quietly on the opposite hillside. When everyone went down the mountain for lunch at noon, Dong Qiangqiang briefly introduced the history of the vineyard and wine knowledge to everyone. Due to the time constraints, Wang Shunan was interested but did not dare to ask to get off the car to see the scenery. Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally did not want to miss it, otherwise who knows when he will see these again?

Dong Qiangqiang considerately parked the car on a high slope by the roadside. Just as he pulled the handbrake, Wang Shunan pushed open the door and jumped out of the car as nimbly as an antelope. He walked a few steps to the edge of the slope and looked around. The green background like a high-definition wallpaper was picturesque, with beautiful flowers blooming, butterflies dancing and bees buzzing under his feet. It was really a feast for the eyes.

The surroundings were quiet, and the breeze from the valley passed by gracefully, making the grape leaves rustle, and bringing the charming fragrance of wild flowers such as jasmine, honeysuckle, rosemary, painted trillium, wild geranium, silver bells and crested dwarf iris to the two of them. Wang Shunan couldn't help but open her arms and breathe greedily, feeling relaxed and refreshed. She remembered Dong Qiangqiang saying that although they were wild flowers, they were also flowers that grape farmers consciously spread in the vineyard. The purpose was to use bees to help the grapes complete the pollination process, and to attract bees to collect nectar to reduce pesticide damage.

Dong Qiangqiang, who had shown off some of his wine knowledge, remembered a nearby winery that he had met several times before. Seeing that it was still early, he dragged Wang Shunan to the winery and prepared to give Wang Shunan some wine before the winery closed. Wang Shunan refused to accept it no matter what. Dong Qiangqiang did not argue with her and directly bought the Riesling and ice wine recommended by the winery manager, which were also within his budget, and put them into the gift bag without saying anything.

The two quickly arrived at the platform, but heard a notice that the train would be delayed by an hour. Dong Qiangqiang simply took Wang Shunan to a German restaurant near the train station for dinner.

Looking at the late train, Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but say one more sentence: "When I was studying in the preparatory course, a friend told me that if one day I really couldn't continue studying and wanted to give up, I must ask myself seriously whether I have tried every means to overcome the difficulties before giving up. If not, giving up too early is likely to bring regrets. As a friend, I hope you would rather hate than regret. Although graduation is not the only way out in life, and other people's opinions are not important, people must be worthy of themselves. You have worked hard in China to get here, and then passed the preparatory course from the nursing home. You successfully graduated from the preparatory course and went to college, and you are in the medical field that everyone envies. If you can graduate in the end, it will be very inspiring, so don't limit yourself, and you must firmly believe that your future must be bright."

When Dong Qiangqiang said this, he didn't think that the person who said this to him was Lao Bai. He didn't remember the source of the words until he was halfway through speaking. Thinking about how he was drifting away from Lao Bai, who was once his teacher and friend, he couldn't help feeling regretful.

Although there are enough platform lamps, perhaps because they are all energy-saving lamps, the lumen output is shockingly low.

In the dim light, Dong Qiangqiang couldn't see the expression on Wang Shunan's face after being exposed to the wind and sun for most of the day. Although Wang Shunan felt tired, he was more happy and a little reluctant to leave.

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity, and thank you for accompanying me for most of the day and listening to me talk so much. Of course, thank you for the gift." She raised the heavy gift bag in her hand that contained cups and wine, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I feel like a female bully eating and taking at the same time."

"You don't need to rush to pay back the money you borrowed. Just focus on your studies and exams. I'll tell you as soon as there is any progress in solving the exam fee issue. Also, be sure to go to Hamburg in person to ask about jobs. Don't listen to rumors or ask others for help." Dong Qiangqiang sincerely hopes that Wang Shunan can learn the true skills in Hamburg.

The train started slowly. Wang Shunan, who was sitting in his seat, waved goodbye to Dong Qiangqiang outside the window. Dong Qiangqiang didn't know if she would listen to what he said to Wang Shunan, but Lao Bai made him understand that most of the time, people can't teach others, not to mention that he is not necessarily better than Wang Shunan. As a friend, it is enough to remind you when you should and give you suggestions without reservation. If you say too much, it is just for psychological comfort.

The night was dark, the floating clouds disappeared, and the crows flew quietly. Dong Qiangqiang stood alone on the platform, watching the train's taillights gradually turn into a small red dot and disappear at the end of the track. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't read for a day, he didn't feel any guilt in his heart. Instead, he felt an indescribable sense of relief. He realized that although he seemed to be wasting time by accompanying Wang Shunan for most of the day, Wang Shunan was also accompanying him to relieve his boredom. Although he didn't complain like Xianglin Sao, his mind still got the long-lost relaxation.

After relaxing for a few minutes, Dong Qiangqiang hurried back to the university again. Zheng Chunhua specifically told him in the afternoon that no matter what time he left after seeing Wang Shunan off today, everyone would be waiting for him at the old place to review.

To his surprise, he heard good news one after another during the review.

"I have something to share with you all. Wanfu's first day's income has come out, and Boss Li said he would donate it all to us, but I think the amount is too large, so I rejected it without asking for your consent. I hope you understand." Zheng Chunhua was the first to speak, just like she did a few days ago. When they heard "the amount is too large", several people's ears pricked up at the same time, like radars receiving a signal.

"How much does he plan to donate?" Fang Shuang spoke first.

Zhao Ke, who was the most sensitive about money among the group, said almost at the same time as Fang Shuang: "No way? Boss, you really don't want a cent?"

"4000 (Euros)." Zheng Chunhua replied.

  "So much?" Everyone except Zhao Ke and Ji Fengping found it unbelievable for a moment. How could they make so much money just by selling those snacks?

Although Zheng Chunhua was the president of the Student Union and had prestige among the students, especially having a good personal relationship with the girls, when they suddenly heard that she had refused such a large sum of money, several people showed indescribable expressions on their faces.

The others didn't know for a moment whether they should ask Zheng Chunhua "Why did you refuse" or "Why do you make the decision for us?" Zhao Ke just asked the question with resentment when Ji Fengping pulled his arm and signaled him to shut up with his eyes.

Except Dong Qiangqiang.

On the one hand, he believed that the Boss Li he knew would not be rejected so easily, even though it was indeed a considerable amount. On the other hand, he was the only one who noticed that Zheng Chunhua's tone was very calm, but she only answered Fang Shuang's question.

"What does Boss Li say?" Dong Qiangqiang asked softly.

Zheng Chunhua cast an ambiguous look at Dong Qiangqiang: "Boss Li insisted that this is what we deserve, and said that he wanted to thank you for providing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Considering that we may have cooperation in the future, I took a step back and said that I could accept a maximum of 1000 Euros, but Boss Li is very enthusiastic and persistent, so the result of our discussion was..."

Although the Economics Department Hall was still bustling with activity, everyone in the preparatory group felt that the surroundings were completely silent and dead.

“Only half of it.”

Several people were relieved after hearing this. Zhao Ke was obviously relieved: "2000 is fine. Our work is not in vain. You didn't see that I was running so hard these two days that I didn't even have time to eat."

"Don't be so ungrateful after getting such an advantage," Ji Fengping said sarcastically, "You talk as if your life is very difficult. Haven't you received Wanfu's salary these days?"

Zhao Ke was suddenly blocked by Ji Fengping and was speechless for a moment. After a while, he said with a frown, "Boss Li is willing to do good deeds, we should help him."
