20 years of restarting life

Chapter 1053 A fish advancing in the countercurrent

When Zhao Changan went downstairs to the Jurassic branch, he saw many people looking down, including Jian Qiu's juicy cabbage, but Tao Jiao's little head was not seen.

Lu Shuyi went downstairs, handed the four tickets to Zhao Changan with a displeased face, stretched out his hand and said, "One thousand and six."

"With emotions, do you want to go back to Mingzhu?"

Zhao Changan smiled and handed Lu Shuyi a cigarette.

"What are you doing?"

Lu Shuyi lit a cigarette, then stretched out his hand to Zhao Changan: "Money!"

"Go back if you want."

Zhao Changan said with a smile, he lit himself up.

"Mr. Zhao, that's what you said. It's hard to catch up with golden words!"

The dull expression on Lu Shuyi's face immediately became vivid, instantly filled with flattery, and he stopped asking for money.

"You and Mr. Tao explain it, um, don't talk about it first, I will go back to Mingzhu tomorrow afternoon, and you can talk about it after I leave."

"I understand, I understand."

Lu Shuyi nodded repeatedly, deeply agreeing.

Immediately afterwards, he stretched out his hand towards Zhao Changan: "Mr. Zhao, in order to deceive others, one thousand and six!"

-

Zhao Changan got the ticket and drove back to CCTV. It was only two o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived at the destination, and there was still more than an hour before the official competition.

Before Lu Feifei and his daughters came over, he parked the car in the parking lot, put on sunglasses, and started selling tickets.

There was no conflict as imagined, and the scalpers just squinted their eyes when they saw someone selling tickets, and ignored them.

In this place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, many people who look unattractive may have relatives and friends who used them to kill people, and there are many opportunities in the place, and the ecology is far less severe than those small and medium-sized cities.

-

At 10:[-] p.m., the game begins.

However, Zhao Changan, who entered the arena early, finally couldn't resist the sleepiness of the night before, and fell asleep in the dark. He didn't open his eyes until Chu Yourong came to the stage to compete.

There is no doubt that Chu Yourong is not only the youngest among the 60 contestants, but also the most beautiful among the 46 female contestants.

As soon as she took the stage, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

After Chu Yourong had a brief interaction with the host, her performance began.

"The title of my speech today is, 'A Fish Moving Upstream'."

The whole place went quiet.

"There's this little fish,—"

Zhao Changan's drowsiness came again, and he closed his eyes.

"Zhao Chang'an, don't sleep, I'm talking about you~"

Lu Feifei, who was sitting next to him, heard the smell. Seeing that Zhao Changan was still sleeping with his eyes closed, she couldn't help but gently nudged him with her elbow as a reminder in a low voice.

However, Zhao Changan was unmoved.

"Just pretend to be asleep!"

Lu Feifei sneered and stopped talking to Zhao Changan.

"——Just such a little fish in the upstream, never complaining about others, just silently sinking himself in the upstream, swimming upstream in the dark night of starlight,—"

At the end of the speech, the audience burst into thunderous applause. Many people were already in tears and applauded vigorously.

-

Chu Yourong's promotion was very easy in this promotion match, just like what Shan Qiang analyzed for her, she is young, beautiful, capable, has no background, and is a college student from a top-ranked university in the country. Anyone with such qualifications is definitely a TV station. Focus on training objects.

And as far as the facts are concerned, Chu Yourong's speech, 'A fish advancing in the upstream', touched too many people and showed her impressive strength.

There is no suspense to advance to the top 30.

After the competition, Chu Yourong and other contestants went to the banquet held by the organizer together. Lu Feifei and Tao Jiao had agreed in advance that they would have dinner together in the evening, so Zhao Changan had no choice but to go to the banquet alone.

Zhao Changan drove halfway, passed a small park, and stopped the car.

"——I never thought that a person could run so desperately, just like that little fish swimming in the upstream with all his strength and non-stop. When I saw him running away clumsily in the snow, look When he smashed his glasses, he had a demonic smile on his face. ——So far, I have mixed praise and praise for him, and I still have speculative doubts about his way of traveling backwards,—but I can’t erase the fact that in these years, , he has been struggling to swim!—”

He lit a cigarette and looked at the bustling crowd in the park.

In fact, in those three years, he never ran desperately, but often bullied the weak, showing a devilish smile.

After more than 20 years, he has forgotten some things. It was not until Chu Yourong's speech today that he awakened some unbearable memories.

He thought, when he did these bad things, what was the essential difference from what Xia Wuyue did to himself?

It's just not as fierce as Xia Wuyue's!

After smoking a cigarette, Zhao Changan pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, rubbed his face vigorously, and drove to the banquet.

At the wine table, the three of them were mainly chatting casually. After drinking a bottle of wine, Lou Chengpeng suggested to sing, but Zhao Changan declined by saying that he would return to Mingzhu tomorrow, and that he would go to the branch office to meet with several senior management tonight.

"This Zhao Chang'an doesn't look like a businessman, but more like a proud college student."

Lou Chengpeng couldn't help shaking his head in disappointment: "I originally called him two female stars later to sing with him and let him know what a real life is. For a man, women are nothing but lovers. It's just a joke, a good medicine to relieve stress and a lubricant for socializing. It doesn't need to be beautiful, as long as you know how to make us happy. And doesn't he understand how making friends with us will change his life drastically? At least It’s no longer a piece of meat on the chopping board. I really don’t understand how his business can grow so big like you said?”

"Students, it's understandable. It will be fine when you enter the society slowly. At that time, you will definitely regret what a good opportunity you have lost."

Qi Peng echoed Lou Chengpeng's words.

From Lou Chengpeng's words, he thought of someone again.

Tang Wenxuan.

At the wedding between him and his sister-in-law, no one from the Qi family showed up. Grandma didn't come to Pearl until Tang Shuang was born.

Before leaving, I said something to Tang Wenxuan, "If you want to come, you can go to Yanjing for the Chinese New Year, and you can also transfer to Yanjing." '

However, until Tang Shuang went to primary school, Tang Wenxuan never stepped into the door of Qi's family.

Perhaps, this is the pride and strength of their kind!

-

Zhao Changan left the hotel, drove for more than half an hour, and arrived at the hotel where Xia He was staying.

He parked the car in a nearby parking lot and walked back.

The location of the hotel is on the outskirts of the city. It is better to say that it is a small hotel built by villagers in the suburbs themselves.

There is no elevator, walking up to the sixth floor, the air is full of the smell of that incident.

Many men and women who opened hourly rooms are going downstairs to check out.

After finding the room number, Zhao Changan knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"I."

"who are you?"

Zhao Changan smiled slightly, quite vigilant, but the sound was a bit distorted on the train, and now it is normal that the sound cannot be heard through the door.

He took out his mobile phone and called Xia He.

The door opened a gap, revealing Xia He's pleasantly surprised face inside.

-

"Ring Ling Ling ~"

The ringing of the phone woke up the sleeping Zhao Changan, it was Lu Feifei's call.

"Hey?"

"What time is Zhao Chang'an and you still haven't come back?"

"I drank too much and couldn't drive, so I found a hotel nearby and slept."

"Can't you return the car to them and take a taxi back? What are you drinking so much for? If you don't come back to sleep and don't make a phone call, we thought Qi Peng and the others sold you out!"

Lu Feifei over there hung up the phone angrily.

Xia He, who was woken up, quietly nestled in Zhao Changan's arms, and said after seeing him hang up the phone: "Are you angry? You go back, you came here by car, it's not safe to leave the car outside."

"Put it in the parking lot, go to sleep, and treat you to drink soybean juice tomorrow."

The two fell asleep.
