Chapter 67(1/2)
Asking for the blessing of the elder brother and father, Qiao Nan finally grabbed the file bag and passed through the crowd at a speed of 100 meters.
Even so, he still retracted many gazes that made him craving, immortal, and dead as soon as he got off the car.
When Mu Xiang found him, he leaned against the corner that he couldn't see in the direction of the examination room gate, staring at the sky with a look of indifference. Then it seemed that the ostentatious suddenly caught her and turned around and looked over.
There were so many candidates in the examination room. They were touching each other from a distance through the crowd. After a while, Qiao Nan, who was leaning there, raised his hand and waved.
Mu Xiangyan laughed and walked over with the file bag. As soon as he approached Qiao Nan's attack range, he was pulled over and hugged by his arm.
In fact, when I saw Dad Qiao and Brother Qiao, I just thought about it and wanted to laugh. She was not as nervous as an ordinary senior high school student. In addition to her excellent grades, Yingcheng is also a famous high school overseas. At least half of the students chose to study abroad, the atmosphere of the college entrance examination brought her from beginning to end was not strong. The day before the college entrance examination, the head teacher sent her admission ticket, looked like she was not different from the usual monthly exams in the school.
But at this moment, buried in the familiar breath of the other party, the complex emotions of spectacularity suddenly surged up.
Time was not long, and the candidates outside the examination room began to run into the teaching building anxiously. In the chaos, Mu Yaoyao raised his hand and put it on Qiao Nan's back, and stayed quietly with him for a few seconds.
Then a voice rang in his ears in unison - "Come on."
They were stunned for a moment, and they both let go of their arms and looked at each other.
A second later, they looked at each other and laughed.
*******
Before entering the examination room, Mu Xiangxiang turned around and looked back at the iron gate. When he met his parents who were squeezed on the railing, he immediately became keen eyes when he found her figure.
The candidates who are worried about being late to speed up their pace, the candidates who are in a panic search for admission tickets, and the candidates who are so nervous that they collapse and cry with their parents. There are various situations in the world at the iron gate.
On the morning of the third day, the last self-selected module ended. Mu Xiangxiang stepped out of the classroom that became empty after the bell rang, and looked up at the exam building. The burning sunlight suddenly lifted the burden to the people who suddenly felt like a different world. The parents who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed over, shouting their children's names. At the same time, the noise of the world instantly surrounded the body again.
Family members, volunteers, ambulances, 110, slogans prohibited from whistling, and everything on standby urgently. This grand event was where countless students worked hard for more than a thousand days and worked diligently all the time.
Just silently, lightly—
it's over.
****
Qiao Nan, who also finished his self-selected module, stepped out of the classroom, carried the file bag, walked to the school gate, and looked at the only parents who were standing outside waiting for him silently.
After a long minute, Luo Meisheng, who had changed into a normal summer outfit, raised his hand awkwardly, stroked his hair and pulled the hem of his clothes.
"That, Nannan, your dad and your brother..."
“Heat stroke.”
****
It was already late at night and the sky was dizzy. A group of guests were gathering in the banquet hall of a famous restaurant in City A.
Bright red brocade intertwined at the entrance of the venue, and the flower baskets delivered by guests were neatly placed beside the stretched walls. The banners hung on the wall were printed with huge slogans "Warmingly Celebrating the First Anniversary of the Official Establishment of Shuimu Food Co., Ltd.".
Mu Xiangxiang walked anxiously while he was walking hard and comforting, "Dad, it's still early, it's only six forty now."
Dad Mu raised his hand and pulled his tie with a serious expression: "If you check the results at seven o'clock, maybe we can get in a few minutes earlier?"
Mu Xiang: "..."
She was silent for a moment and wanted to say that there was no need to spend energy paying attention to this on such an important occasion. She could go online to check it out later.
But before that, when the new guest arrived, she could only nod politely to the middle-aged man entering the venue with her father's introduction: "Hello Uncle Wu."
The middle-aged man swept over her delicate eyebrows and long hair over her ears, nodded and smiled: "Oh, I haven't seen each other for a while, and my niece is getting more and more beautiful as I grow."
After praising me, I turned around and flattered Dad Mu, "Look, Mr. Mu, among us, you are the most convinced. My wife is beautiful, my daughter is sensible, and my career is still rising. Recently I heard that your company will make a big breakthrough again?"
Dad Mu pinched his cell phone and said, "Where is it, Mr. Wu, you are just a little bit of a fight."
Mr. Wu raised his hand and nudged his shoulder: "Okay, don't see how smooth it is. It's almost the same to deceive outsiders on the scene. Isn't it sincere to tell me that I'm jealous?"
Although Shuimu Food was established not long ago, who in the industry did not know that this company was developing as fast as a rocket? However, in more than a year, it developed from an unknown small factory to an important role in the small and medium-sized food manufacturing industry in City A, and the products produced were even sold overseas and were highly praised.
Dad Mu laughed and took his weak legs and feet to send the guest in. There were diners passing by restaurants outside the banquet hall and looked back at the lame man who seemed to have a good social status. Dad Mu didn't care, and laughed more and more happily, and even raised his hand to pat his thigh: "Hahaha, Mr. Wu, you are so humorous. You are a healthy person, and you are jealous of what a disabled person do."
He spoke "disabled" at once, but the expression on his face was not only annoying and proud, but also annoying and proud. He was filled with super confidence from head to toe, and even the slightest inferiority was not found in his back.
After seeing the guests, the annoying guy went out with a little anxiety looking at his watch. Mr. Wu stared at his bumpy footsteps, feeling very complicated, and he wanted to chase him and punch him twice.
There was an unconcealed envy in my eyes - Damn, this guy is really angry and makes no contribution to his life.
Who knows some policies of City A knows that the entire City A is opening the door to the lame man in front of him at this moment? In addition to the foreign exchange investment, the more important reason is the boss's identity as a disabled person. Nowadays, the trend of encouraging disabled people to find employment and entrepreneurship is very strong in China, but it is difficult to find a suitable model. City A finally caught this one and immediately held it in his hand to take care of it. Not to mention various tax rates and policies, it is easier to do business than other companies. Just last month, he heard him say that he wanted to increase the production line, but the land for Shuimu No. 2 Factory in the city had already been approved a few days ago.
I don’t know how much envy and jealous this kind of real preferential treatment has attracted.
Sure enough, shortly after he arrived at the banquet hall, he heard the sighs of several small entrepreneurs coming from beside him—
"This Mr. Mu can really be regarded as a winner in life."
"Yes, my son and daughter are both, and my wife is beautiful. I heard that she is still a bad wife who never leaves him when he was in a downturn."
"Now that I have made a comeback, my career is successful, and my family is by my side. What are the shortcomings in my life?"
This was envious. He nodded in his heart, then heard a cold snorkeling, turned to look, and a certain spice factory owner curled his lips sourly—
"Isn't I still a cripple when I said so well? We can't compare to him, at least we walk more easily than him."
This is jealous.
But is it meaningful to be jealous? The rest of the people couldn't help laughing when they heard this: "Mr. Xue, what's the use of walking more easily than him? People's careers are more flexible than us, and they are more practical than three legs?"
"Yes, the foreign partner of their company is really awesome. During the Chinese New Year, I took my wife and children to Europe to play. The local internet celebrity restaurants sell braised goose meat and braised liver from their factory."
"There is also the Shuimu No. 2 Factory, which has just been approved in the suburbs. If anyone of us wants that piece of land, we will have to find a way day and night for two months with our things?"
"To be honest, I had the same idea as you a few months ago. Now, those who are on the horse want to hit their legs too."
Mr. Xue twitched his forehead and his lips pursed: "...It's just that his career is going smoothly, and he can't see it behind his back. How do you know that he is so happy?"
After saying that, he paused again: "For example, those two children in his family don't know what they think. They obviously don't know how to train them well even if they have the conditions. The younger son takes leave all day long and doesn't go to school until he is halfway through junior high school. When I was online some time ago, I saw someone posted the final transcript of his younger son's last semester last semester. He only scored 59 points in mathematics. How embarrassing."
"..." Everyone was silent for a while, and someone asked him, "Mr. Xue, do you know how much does it cost to receive an advertisement for his youngest son's band now?"
Mr. Xue: "How many?"
"Our factory's spicy strips were going to promote in April and wanted to find a spokesperson, so he just asked their company." The other party spread one hand, stretched out five fingers, and then stretched out two fingers of the other hand, and shook them together, "This number."
Mr. Xue: “…”
Mr. Xue's forehead was filled with sweat: "Being a star is easier to make money, and it's nothing to be able to take this number... Well, even if it's a lot, what about his daughter? His daughter hasn't become a star, right?"
After thinking about it, he became confident: "And his daughter is quiet and doesn't like to talk. No matter how beautiful she is, she can't adapt to the entertainment industry, right? My son doesn't like to talk, but he is easy to learn. He has known to study hard since he was a child. So last year, I went to the college entrance examination and directly passed the college entrance examination. This is what they really should do at this age!"
As he finished speaking, a commotion suddenly came from the entrance without warning.
All the people gathered in the venue were shocked. When they turned around, they found that Mu's father, who was still welcoming guests, had hit the table at the door for some reason. The champagne tower piled up high on the table was smashed to pieces by him. His whole face was blank, and he didn't even notice that the phone he held in his hand fell to the ground.
The screen on the phone is also displayed on the call interface, and the number increases second by second.
None of the three people in the Mu family spoke at this moment. After a while, in the dullness of their father and mother, Mu Xiangxiang came back to his senses, went up to pick up his phone, and hung up.
It seemed as if in the same second, the phone in her pocket was trembling with the ringtone.
He took it out, connected it, and put it in his ear. Yingcheng's class teacher's voice suddenly poured into his ears: "Mu Xiang Si!!! 729!!!729!!! The top scorer in science in the province!!!!"
The sound was still clearly heard within a few steps around him. Dad Mu and Mom, who were so heartless, suddenly came back to their senses. They opened their mouths like fish that were not oxygen-deficient. The next second, Dad Mu suddenly covered his face and a whimper spilled out of his fingers.
Then he turned around and shouted outside the banquet hall: "Come here!Come here!!"
"Start the wine!!!"
"My daughter is the top scorer in science this year!!!"
"I'll invite all the guests in the store tonight!!!!"
The loud roar spread with him as the center of the circle. In addition to causing the shocked restaurant waiter outside the banquet hall to run, he also quickly floated into the banquet hall.
Boss Wu, who has been quietly listening to the argument between a small group on the side: "…………It’s really a fucking winner in life, it’s authentic."
Everyone turned their eyes silently.
Mr. Xue, who suddenly became the focus of his sight, said: “………………………………………………………………”
Mr. Xue: "I'll go."
*******
"How many have you taken the exam?"
"How many have you taken the exam?"
Only the breathing of the receiver could be heard in the quiet corner. Mu Xiangyao held the phone and clearly felt that the person on the other end of the phone was also nervous. After a long time, she gently spoke: "Countdown, let's talk together."
Qiao Nan: "Yes."
“3”
"2"
“1”
“729!”
“708!”
Mu Xiang: "..."
