Hidden Corners

Chen Xudong approached and put his arm around Li Chengyi's shoulder.

"It's okay, kid, how long has it been, and your body is so strong?"

"I've practiced some explosive power recently, it's normal." Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Li Chengyi could only sit down speechless.

He glanced at the group of people who were slowly gathering behind Chen Xudong.

At a glance, there were at least thirty or forty people, most of whom were in good shape. Men are strong, women are hot.

That is, most of them are elderly and middle-aged people, not many young people.

"It's been a long time since I saw you. Let's see who's here?" Chen Xudong patted Li Chengyi's shoulder, and pointed to a few people who were approaching here not far away.

Li Chengyi looked at it, and didn't recognize it at first, but soon, the memories of his predecessor began to roll out.

The few young people who approached were all their playmates and friends who had played together since they were young.

Although some have become fatter, some have become more beautiful, and some have drastically changed in temperament, but from the outline of the eyebrows, one can vaguely tell that it is still the same person.

A group of people approached lively.

"This is Li Chengyi!" A gentle man wearing glasses pointed to this side and said, as if he had just recognized him.

"It's Li Chengyi, he's already this old? Are you exercising now?" A girl asked in surprise.

"Long time no see, everyone." Li Chengyi waved his hand as a greeting when he saw that everyone was coming.

In fact, he had a vague memory of his previous life. Looking at this group of people, he only remembered that the man with glasses was called Li Qingpeng, and he had some background in his family, but not much.

When my predecessor was a child, I actually couldn't play with him.

This group of people used to play in two groups, each playing their own way.

A bunch of them are headed by Li Qingpeng. He has a good family background and studies well, so he can be regarded as the leader.

The other group is headed by Chen Xudong. This guy is the second generation of a small rich man. He spends a lot of money and can gather popularity.

But Li Chengyi used to be ugly and his family background was average, so he was considered a little transparent.

There is also Lin Sang, who joined later. Not this time.

Chen Xudong pointed to the approaching people and introduced them one by one.

"Zhao Sikai." He pointed to a shy black and thin man and smiled, "Now I'm on the construction site, engaged in architectural design. I love to laugh more than before. Before, I was very dull."

"Fuck you. You know it's hurting me." Zhao Sikai scolded with a smile.

"This is Zhao Funing, our former district flower, ah, the community district flower." Chen Xudong pointed to the second ponytail girl in pink sportswear.

This girl has red lips and white teeth, big eyes, tall figure and long flowing hair. She is really beautiful. A pair of simple washed white jeans outlines her round hips and legs that fit snugly.

"What ghost flower? Don't talk about it, it's all crippled now." Zhao Funing extended his hand and shook Li Chengyi formally.

There are two remaining girls, both of whom are girls. One, Li Chengyi, is named Yuan Lai, who seems to have always liked Li Qingpeng before, and I don't know how it is now.

He didn't know the other one at all. After carefully looking through his memory, he still had no impression.

"Yuan Lai doesn't need to be introduced, right? The eldest sister who took us to catch up with our summer homework before." Chen Xudong laughed, and was slapped on the back by Yuan Lai.

The girl was dressed like a boy, her hair was short and short, she was a little fat, and she had an amiable smile.

"I haven't seen you for many years. Li Chengyi, are you so strong now?" Yuan Lai stood in front of Li Chengyi and compared the width of their arms with his hands.

Although she was slightly fat, her arms were definitely a lot thinner than Li Chengyi's.

"exaggerate."

She shook her head and looked at the last girl.

"This is my best friend Zhuang Yijing. She is in a bad mood recently, so I brought her here to relax."

"Hello." Li Chengyi greeted with a smile.

In the end, this girl has a very upright temperament. She is wearing a bright yellow dress and a round straw hat. The simple collocation gives off a quiet and bookish air.

"Hello, it looks safe if you look closely." Zhuang Yijing joked with a smile.

"Thank you." Li Chengyi was not in the mood to socialize at all right now. But Chen Xudong had already brought people over, so he had no choice but to chat with a few people to make up the numbers.

Everyone stood together, a total of seven people, chatting for a while, and naturally restored the structure of two small groups and two tables as before when I was a child.

Together with Chen Xudong, Li Chengyi, and Zhao Funing.

Li Qingpeng, Yuan Lai, Zhao Sikai together.

Zhuang Yijing sat on the side and swiped her phone after saying hello.

Chen Xudong called the waiter and pointed at everyone present.

"Everyone here has a bottle of watermelon juice. Keep the accounts first."

"Brother Dong is still cool." Zhao Funing smiled. She has a pretty face, but she has a hot temper. In the past, because she didn't like Li Qingpeng and often fought with him, she couldn't get along with him.

The community is so big, when there is no one to play with, she can only rely on Li Chengyi and Chen Xudong.

"How is Daning now? Last time I heard from your father that you dropped out of school?" Chen Xudong sat down and lowered his voice.

"Later, I continued to study. I dropped out of high school for the critical two years, and my grades did not make up." Zhao Funing shook his head with a smile, "Now I open a small shop and start a clothing business. It is not as comfortable and leisurely as your rich second generation."

"What kind of rich second generation am I?" Chen Xudong waved his hand, "The most annoying thing for me these days is hearing people say that I am a rich second generation, can you not ask for the last two words?"

"Then you have to be better than your father." Li Chengyi added.

"Aren't I still young?" Chen Xudong was speechless. "In the future, I will definitely do it in the future!"

"Where's Xiaoyi? What are you doing now?" Zhao Funing looked at Li Chengyi curiously.

Among the few people present, Li Chengyi was the strongest, bigger than Chen Xudong.

His figure is really approaching the hulking back.

Sitting on a chair without moving your face can give people a calm and calm temperament.

Hearing the question, he quickly straightened his mind and remembered what his job was.

"I work in a biopharmaceutical company and work as an assistant to the boss. I usually watch the boss dispatch me. When I am busy, I am very busy and travel everywhere. When I am free, it is the same as now." Li Chengyi simply replied.

"That's better than us. Anyway, I graduated from college. I didn't go to college at the beginning. Now, you know a little bit. These days, everything depends on academic qualifications. I can't even enter many places." Zhao Funing sighed.

"It's my fault that you talked too much about love at that time." Chen Xudong concluded, "I told you earlier not to waste energy, just choose me, and I don't listen."

"screw you!"

Several people chatted in low voices, and Li Chengyi interrupted from time to time to cheer, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Learn about it.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengyi was the best among the three. An income of 20,000 yuan a month is actually the highest income earned by oneself.

Among the few people on the other side, Li Qingpeng had already joined the public electric power unit not long after graduation, and even became the junior deputy section chief with real power. Rapid promotion. Still the leader among the few.

After chatting for a while, Li Chengyi's parents Li Zhao and Feng Yurong came over, greeted a few people, and the crowd dispersed.

Chen Xudong was busy greeting everyone, and when he turned his head occasionally, he saw Li Chengyi sitting quietly in a corner of the grass, holding a mobile phone in his hand but not looking at it, just looking distractedly into the distance.

For some reason, he inexplicably felt a faint fatigue from Li Chengyi's body.

"He is more silent than before." Zhao Funing said from the side.

"He didn't talk much in the first place, and he didn't talk when he liked Lin Sang before. He just knew that he was bored in his heart, thinking that no one else could see it." Chen Xudong said.

"Go and do your work, I'll go and watch him." Zhao Funing said with a smile.

Looking at the tall and strong Li Chengyi, there is a faint special temperament.

The sense of shock and surprise that was completely opposite to the previous ordinary image gave her the surprise of suddenly finding gems in the sand.

Without waiting for Chen Xudong to reply, she approached.

"Speaking of which, Xiaoyi, you still live in the same place now, right?" She naturally sat down on a chair next to Li Chengyi.

"Haven't you considered leaving Suiyang to develop in other places? You are majoring in plant conservation. Go to a province with a warm climate in the south. Wouldn't it be better for you to get a job?"

"I didn't think so much at the time." Li Chengyi smiled.

"That's because you have a good job now. You are lucky to be able to find this kind of job in Suiyang, where there are few jobs and few opportunities." Zhao Funing said with a smile, "By the way, you biological Pharmaceuticals, what exactly do you do? Is it drug research and development?”

"I'm also interested in this." Li Qingpeng didn't know when to come over.

"However, in terms of biopharmaceuticals, Baixing is much better than us, so there is not much potential for development here, right?" He looked at Li Chengyi.

"Elston, Vegali, and Xinlan Pharmaceutical are all top companies in the world of Baixing. Especially Vegali, the tree of life series of cell-activating drugs they launched is very good, and I bought it for my dad. Try a box, it works great."

"This." Li Chengyi knows a lot about biopharmaceuticals, and he is just a fool to get a job.

Hearing Li Qingpeng showing off a bunch of exclusive nouns in front of Zhao Funing like showing off his skills, he was a little speechless and a little helpless.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Qingpeng glanced at Zhao Funing, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. When I think back to the time when I was a child, we all rushed to homework together, and now I feel funny thinking about it."

"The tree of life seems very expensive, right? A box costs more than a thousand." Zhao Funing's attention was diverted.

"Don't you want your parents to be in better health? As long as they are healthy, what does it matter if you have more money?" Li Qingpeng sighed lightly. He came here to promise a party, and his biggest target was Zhao Funing, his childhood playmate.

Gatherings, gatherings with a lot of people are just for showing off and being ambiguous, otherwise, who is so busy, why would they go to a gathering?

If you really want to have a good relationship, you will get together by yourself every two or three days, and you won't have to look for an opportunity to meet only once.

"Brother Peng, you are doing very well now. But the income of the power department should not be so high?" Zhao Funing asked curiously.

"That's for sure. I also participated in a share of my brother's company. There are some fixed dividends every year. There are still fifty or sixty dividends a year. Of course, the income cannot be based on dead wages." Li Qingpeng laughed.

"Of course Xiaoyi is doing well now. I heard from Chen Xudong that he earns 20,000 yuan a month. Now that the employment is so poor, this income is considered very good." He kept comparing himself with Li Chengyi in his words.

"By the way, Xiaoyi, do you still live with your uncle and aunt?"

"Yes, we are still together." Li Chengyi knew what he meant when he heard it.

"Then you can go to the provincial capital to buy a house if you have a decent income. Just make up the down payment when you are young, otherwise you will not be able to get a loan when you are old." Li Qingpeng kindly suggested.

"In the provincial capital, the house is very expensive, isn't it exhausting to get a loan so early?" Zhao Funing frowned.

"Fortunately, I bought it early, and it was only in the early 10,000s, so I was lucky, and the price went up as soon as I finished buying it." Li Qingpeng smiled and said reservedly, thinking about it for a long time, just for this sentence.

He has a house in the provincial capital, but Li Chengyi still lives with his parents.

Both of them are of the same age, and they were playmates when they were young, so the comparison immediately revealed the gap.
