The Pentium Era - South to North

After breakfast, everyone was still in the restaurant. Zhang Chen’s mother urged them to go back quickly. Zhang Chen asked, why are you in such a hurry?

"I remembered that the bowls from yesterday's breakfast were still lying there, not cleared away. Now the house is probably crawling with rats," said Zhang Chen's mother.

"You just thought of it now?" Zhang Chen said with a smile, "Besides, what kind of mice will there be? We usually put leftovers on the table, so we don't attract mice?"

"What do you know? Usually there are people at home and there is a lot of noise, so the mice don't dare to come. Now there is no ghost in the house. The mice in the entire West Lake District have been notified and are going to make nests in our house." Zhang Chen's mother said, Everyone laughed.

"She got through Xiaofang's phone and knew that Beibei had arrived in the United States. She also talked to Beibei, and then she remembered the things at home."

Lao Zhang said that it was clear that he still wanted to stay here for a while. Before six o'clock this morning, Lao Zhang got up and called Xiao Zhao's father. Two reclamation warriors ran up and down. , studied the Jin Mao Tower for more than an hour, and were stopped several times by security guards. They were only allowed to continue after discovering that they were indeed hotel guests.

"It's really good. So many of us came to see Zhang Xiangbei off, but as a result, Beibei has already arrived in New York, and we haven't even returned to Hangzhou." Liu Ligan said, and everyone laughed.

Xiangnan walked up to Tan Shuzhen and looked at her giggling. Tan Shuzhen knew that this was another evil idea, so she said no.

"What's not allowed, mom?" Xiang Nan asked.

"The request you are planning to make is not allowed. I will not agree to it anymore. Did you see that so many of us stayed in Shanghai for one extra night, all because of you." Tan Shuzhen said, Xiang Nan's mouth became flat.

"Ba Dao, ignore your mother, Xiang Nan, what do you want to do?" Zhang Chen stepped in and asked.

"We haven't taken the train yet, so we want to go back by train instead of taking a car. Moreover, I have made an agreement with Uncle Xiaoshu and Aunt Yao Fen that they also want to go back by train."

Xiangnan said, and after that he looked at Xiaoshu. Xiaoshu said yes, let’s take the train. I want to see which one is better than the Shinkansen I took in Japan.

"The request is reasonable, and uncle agreed, Xiangnan." Zhang Chen said.

Xiang Nan laughed and turned to look at Tan Shuzhen. Xiaoshu and Yao Fen were with her, so Tan Shuzhen had nothing to say.

"Sun Xiangyang, what about you?" Zhang Chen asked Fatty Sun.

Sun Xiangyang raised his hands to Xiaoshu and said, "I also want to take the train. Uncle Xiaoshu, please take me."

Xiaoshu smiled and said, okay, I’ll take you with me.

"You should ask me if I agree, Fatty Sun." Xiang Nan shouted.

"Okay, okay, let me ask you, please bring me, please bring me, please bring me."

Sun Xiangyang simply moved his hands in a circle and begged Xiang Nan, Zhou Ruoyi, and Zheng Xinxin. Xiang Nan said, "Okay, since Zhang Xiangbei is gone and you are all alone, I will take you with me."

All the staff immediately made new arrangements. The four old people, Sister Guihua, Qu Tianlin and Little Gulu took Xiao Sheng’s car and went directly back to Hangzhou. They passed by the Songjiang exit and sent Little Gulu back. Lunch will be on the second day. Eat them there.

Xiaowu drove Xiaoshu and the others to Shanghai South Railway Station to take the high-speed train. Liu Ligan and Tan Shuzhen simply used this time to go to Lao Wan and the others. Zhang Chen was at Xiaomi's place. Xiaowu also returned here after seeing Xiaoshu and the others off. .

After discussing it, everyone went downstairs and set off. After Zhang Chen, Liu Ligan, and Tan Shuzhen sent the two vans away, Liu Ligan and Tan Shuzhen drove away in Xiaomi's car. Zhang Chen did not go upstairs with Xiaomi. , he told Xiaomi, I will go outside for a walk first and come back later.

Xiaomi said yes.

Zhang Chen went out from the south gate of Jinmao Tower and walked to Huayuan Shiqiao Road. He walked along this road for only six to seven hundred meters, crossed Yincheng Middle Road, and then crossed Lujiazui Ring Road to the riverside. The Riverside Garden at that time was very small and there were not many people there. Every time Zhang Chen came here, he liked to walk around and sit here and enjoy the wind of the Huangpu River.

The wind in the Huangpu River is different from that in the Qiantang River and Xin'an River. The wind in the Xin'an River is crisp and clear, carrying the scent of the mountains and forests on the opposite side. After a long time, it will make people come out of the world. The wind in the Qiantang River often has a salty and humid smell. The smell sometimes makes people feel like sea breeze, but it is actually far away from the sea. The wind from the Huangpu River is as open and solid as the sea breeze, and a little fishy.

But it's not the smell of sea water, but the smell of human beings, the smell of fireworks. It's like the breath of this giant city. No matter how long you sit there, you will still be in the world. Zhang Chen feels that it is most suitable to be on a riverside like this. Open your eyes and think about the trivial matters of the world instead of closing your eyes and daydreaming.

Zhang Chen walked to a stone bench by the river and sat down, looking at the Huangpu River in front of him. In Shanghai in July, it was more than nine o'clock in the morning, the temperature was not that high, and it was cloudy again. Sitting on the riverside and watching The scenery is quite comfortable.

On the river, there were only two iron barges, working hard to move upstream. On the other side, the entire Bund was gray. The cars and figures all seemed to be moving in an old movie. They had a sad look and the entire tone in front of them. They are all gray, with no bright colors visible.

Zhang Chen knew that if he turned around to look at Lujiazui, which is composed of the Oriental Pearl Tower, Jin Mao Tower and the World Financial Center under construction, it would have a different color. But Zhang Chen did not look back. In comparison, he still preferred what he saw in front of him. Gray tone.

Zhang Chen's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Xiaofang. Zhang Chen answered it. As soon as the call came through, he heard Xiaofang giggling on the phone and Zhang Xiangbei's background voice.

"What's wrong, Xiaofang?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Brother-in-law, have you seen these two suitcases in Beibei?" Xiaofang asked.

"No, what's wrong?" Zhang Chen asked, "What's stuffed inside? I asked you to take care of it, but the two old ladies are still not happy."

"They are all good things." Xiaofang smiled, "Two big boxes of big bubble gum, Wahaha AD calcium milk, how many rows do you know? Thirty-two rows, haha. Beibei said grandma made a mistake, and he usually doesn't like to drink it. This is what Nan Nan likes to drink. Haha makes it easier for me. I also like to drink it. I can’t really buy Wahaha AD calcium milk in the United States.”

Zhang Chen laughed.

"Also, there are ham sausages, bacon sausages, this must have been put in by my mother, pork floss, and Jinhua ham, oh, I'm getting rich, and dried bamboo shoots, and dried prunes. Oh my god, are the US Customs so blind? , or our Beibei looks too cute, which confuses them, we can bring these in, as well as salted duck eggs, preserved eggs... Haha, brother-in-law, we can fill up the refrigerator..."

Xiaofang laughed while talking, and Zhang Chen kept laughing while holding his mobile phone. He said it was a loss. If I had known this, I should have put stinky tofu in, and it was definitely okay.

"Yes, yes, there is his brother, brother-in-law, and two bottles of Shaoxing fermented bean curd. Oh my god, it's great!" Xiaofang shouted.

Zhang Chen sat there with one hand clasped on his chest and the other holding the phone, laughing non-stop. Infected by him, some people couldn't help but laugh.

Not far from here, there is a pedestrian path next to the river. Up three steps, there is a platform. There is a two-story house on the platform. In the house is a Western restaurant called "Chun Zai". Liu Yun is sitting on the second floor. in front of the window, looking here.

Every morning, Liu Yun arrives at the company at seven o'clock. She is used to working quietly in her office for an hour before everyone in the company arrives. At eight o'clock, she leaves the company. Went downstairs and walked to the "Chun Zai" Western Restaurant to have breakfast.

There are not many customers in the restaurant. The few guests here are probably the same as Liu Yun. They like the quietness here. Liu Yun sits in this seat on the second floor almost every day, eating breakfast, drinking coffee, and opening his laptop by the way. I did some work on the computer and sat there until half past nine before getting up and leaving.

Today, Liu Yun was about to leave when Zhang Chen unexpectedly came into her sight. He came over and sat down on a stone bench by the river. When Zhang Chen sat down, Liu Yun did not stand up, but was very interested. looked at him.

The distance was not far, and the huge window was unobstructed. If Zhang Chen turned around, he would probably see her, but Zhang Chen never looked back.

Naturally, Liu Yun thought of Bian Zhilin's famous song "Broken Chapter": "You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery/The people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs/The bright moon decorates your windows/You decorate other people's dreams. .”

Liu Yun didn't know if she had ever entered Zhang Chen's dream, but Zhang Chen had really entered her dream, especially that time when she saw Xiao Zhao from a distance at the Ban Mu Tian store on Huaihai Road. , very strangely, what she would dream about next was not Xiao Zhao, but Zhang Chen, as if it was Zhang Chen she saw that day.

Liu Yun held the coffee cup in her hand and stared at Zhang Chen blankly looking into the distance and looking at the other side. For a moment, she even hoped that he would suddenly turn his head and see her. If so, Liu Yun would also She has already thought about it, and she is not going to avoid it. If Zhang Chen waves to her, she will wave to him. She will go downstairs, stretch out her hand and say, hello, Zhang Chen, how come it is such a coincidence?

She thought Zhang Chen would probably say the same thing, and Liu Yun would ask him, how is Xiao Zhao, how is Li Yong, and how are Qihang and Yiyan? She believed that Chen Qihang and Lin Yiyan would definitely have contact with them, and she would not explain why. For such a long time, he has not contacted them and will not tell him where he is now.

Of course, they wouldn't leave each other's phone numbers. They met like this and separated like this. If there is a chance to see each other next time, it will definitely be "what a coincidence."

Although for Liu Yun, thinking about it carefully, it shouldn't be a surprise to meet Zhang Chen here. His branch is also in Jinmao Tower. As long as he comes frequently, they are likely to meet. There are many possibilities for "what a coincidence", so just wait for it to happen again and again.

Liu Yun put down the cup, looked at the back, and sighed softly.

She saw him reach out and take out his cell phone and pick it up. Could it be Xiao Zhao on the other end of the phone?

She saw him smiling non-stop while answering the phone. He smiled so openly that he couldn't hide his happiness. He smiled like a child. What made him so happy?

Liu Yun was infected by him and couldn't help laughing.

After answering the phone, Zhang Chen stood up. He felt that his current mood was no longer in tune with the gray tone in front of him, and he wanted to go back to Xiaomi's office.

Liu Yun's heart suddenly became nervous. She saw Zhang Chen stood up and turned around. She wanted him to see her, but she seemed a little afraid that he would see her. But in the end, Zhang Chen did not look upstairs. As he walked, he turned his head in the direction of Puxi and looked over there.

Liu Yun watched him off and walked past her with a smile on her face.

She heard herself sigh again.
