Chapter 557
However, Zhou Yuwen just nodded at them, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.

Today, his father was indeed drunk. He sat there listening to the flattery from relatives next to him. When Zhou Yuwen came, he just looked up. Zhou Guobin was not the kind of person who liked to be flattered, but he was indeed happy that Zhou Yuwen could achieve what he has today.

Zhou Yuwen asked his father how much he had drunk, and Zhou Guobin said not much.

Just have a simple drink with your uncles.

Zhou Yuwen said you can’t drink anymore, don’t you have to go to work tomorrow?

As he spoke, Zhou Yuwen called out to Peng Xiaoyong who was following behind him, and then said to Zhou Guobin, "Cousin hasn't started yet, let him take you home later."

As he spoke, Zhou Yuwen helped his father up, and Zhou Guobin nodded.

Peng Xiaoyong was quite perceptive and helped out for a while before helping Zhou Guobin away.

Before leaving, Zhou Yuwen smiled at his relatives and told them that they could continue drinking.

My old father is really drunk, so I will send them home first.

Have you arranged accommodation?

"It's arranged. We have arranged it."

These relatives all work outside and only get together during the Chinese New Year. Except for a few who do not have houses here, all the others have houses.

Seeing that they had everything arranged, Zhou Yuwen didn't say anything.

Two bodyguards were arranged to accompany the mother to deal with the aftermath.

Another bodyguard was arranged to take Liu Shuo home.

Zhou Yuwen was driven home by a bodyguard to take Li Shiqi home.

The small private room in Wangyue Tower was busy and before we knew it it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, but some relatives still hadn't drunk enough and were still clinking glasses.

The waiters had already cleared the empty tables. Yang Lirong was talking to someone there. Some relatives were looking at the busy people.

Watch Peng Xiaoyong help Zhou Guobin leave.

I don’t know if it was because I was jealous or what, but I couldn’t help but mutter that Xiaoyong was really lucky.

He looks down on us.

You see, this is more praise than anyone else.

Zhou Yuwen didn't know what happened in the private room. He and Li Shiqi sent Liu Shuo home first. Liu Shuo could still speak normally at the beginning, but when he got in the car, the air conditioner turned on and his face became very hot. The alcohol took effect and he became drunk.

By the time I got home, I was completely drunk.

Liu Shuo's home is in a famous villa area in the county town, quiet in the midst of a bustling city.

Two bodyguards helped Liu Shuo out of the car. Liu Shuo was still drunk and insisted that he was not drunk.

"Open the door! Liu Gang, open the door!"

Liu Gang is Liu Shuo's father, and Liu Shuo yelled at the top of his lungs.

The door of the villa opened immediately, and a burly man in a dark blue pajamas came out with a frown on his face.

He was wondering which drunkard dared to come to his house to cause trouble, but when he saw Liu Shuo, his eyes lit up and he yelled, "You little bastard! Why didn't you tell me before you came home?"

"Hey, stay out of my business!"

"Who are you talking to?"

As Liu Gang was talking, he wanted to find the sole of his shoe to wedge Liu Shuo. At this time, Zhou Yuwen beside him said, "Is it Uncle Liu?"

Liu Gang only noticed Zhou Yuwen at this time. He was confused at first, but suddenly he woke up: "You are Yuwen!"

He had already found the soles of his shoes to give his son a good lesson, but when he saw Zhou Yuwen, he immediately put down the soles of his shoes, realized that he was rude, and quickly tidied himself up.

He even went to shake hands with Zhou Yuwen.

To be honest, Liu Gang is also a well-known big boss in the county, but compared with Zhou Yuwen, he is indeed not as good as him. The most important thing is that in Liu Gang's view, Zhou Yuwen is a benefactor to his son.

Liu Gang knew how capable Liu Shuo was. It could be said that Liu Shuo's achievements today were entirely due to Zhou Yuwen.

So, Liu Gang's attitude towards Zhou Yuwen was really very good. He even grabbed Zhou Yuwen's hands with both hands and held them tightly.

Liu Gang said that he didn’t see Zhou Yuwen when he went to Jinling last time and he kept talking about him.

"I've always wanted to thank you in person. I hope this bastard has caused you a lot of trouble in Jinling."

Zhou Yuwen said no, Liu Shuo helped me a lot.

Liu Gang grinned and said, Brothers, you don't have to be so polite in front of me.

"I know how much he weighs. Why did this bastard drink so much today?"

Liu Gang frowned.

Zhou Yuwen apologized and said that he was trying to block the wine.

Liu Gang said, "Oh, that should be the case."

"This kid doesn't have any other abilities, but he's pretty good at drinking. If there's anything to do with drinking in the future, just leave it to him!" Liu Gang is also a man of temperament.

He kept inviting Zhou Yuwen to come in and sit for a while, but Zhou Yuwen said no.

"Uncle, I'm sorry to bother you today. It's almost Chinese New Year, and Liu Shuo drank so much."

Liu Gang waved his hand, and Zhou Yuwen continued, It’s too late today, so I’ll go in and bother you.

"I'll come visit again some other day."

"Then make an appointment, and I'll treat you two brothers to a meal then."

What Liu Gang said is true.

Zhou Yuwen just smiled.

The two exchanged a few polite words, and then Zhou Yuwen said that he had to see his girlfriend off, and then they parted.

While Zhou Yuwen and Liu Gang were talking, Li Shiqi stood quietly beside Zhou Yuwen.

When he got back into the car, Zhou Yuwen felt hungry.

Zhou Yuwen said, "I was just busy chatting with my relatives and didn't eat much. Are you full?"

Li Shiqi smiled embarrassedly, indicating that she didn't eat well.

At a large gathering like this, there is basically nothing to eat.

Zhou Yuwen asked her if she wanted to eat something?

Li Shiqi nodded and said yes.

Then Zhou Yuwen said, but in that case, you will probably have to go home very late.

Li Shiqi said: "I'm not going home tonight."

"Hmm?" Zhou Yuwen didn't understand what Li Shiqi meant.

But Li Shiqi explained that it was already very late.

"My mother and uncle should have gone to bed. I don't think they want me to go back now."

Seeing Li Shiqi's indifferent expression, Zhou Yuwen suddenly remembered that Li Shiqi was from a reconstituted family, and perhaps in her eyes, that place was not her home at all.

Zhou Yuwen said, in that case, I will go to the hotel and get a room for you.

"No, I just ordered it."

"Ah? Have you booked it?"

"Well, Meituan is holding an event, it's quite cheap."

Li Shiqi said with some pride that it was already 2015 and Meituan had already taken over the online service. Zhou Yuwen took a look and found that Li Shiqi had booked a Days Inn. Zhou Yuwen felt that the hotel environment was only average. It looked clean, but the hardware facilities were somewhat poor. For example, the room was drafty and the air conditioning was basically just for show.

Zhou Yuwen said, let’s change the hotel.

"Just take it to the company for reimbursement when the time comes."

"No need. I live alone anyway. One night will be enough." As someone who has been poor, Li Shiqi will not waste money.

Zhou Yuwen said: "I will live with you, let's change rooms."

"?" Li Shiqi was stunned, but couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

He lowered his head and asked quietly, "Don't you need to go home?"

Zhou Yuwen said, it’s already very late.

"Besides, I'm not comfortable leaving you alone outside. Let me accompany you outside. Let's go to another hotel."

Zhou Yuwen has said so, what can Li Shiqi say?

The two of them have already established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Hearing this, Li Shiqi could only slightly raise the corners of her mouth and say yes with a little shyness.

So Li Shiqi started looking for a hotel, but unfortunately it was almost eleven o'clock.

It’s almost the Chinese New Year again, and the hotels with better environments are getting fully booked.

After all, this small county only relies on these few days to make money.

Li Shiqi felt uneasy because she couldn't book a good hotel. She felt that both Zhou Yuwen and herself would suffer.

Zhou Yuwen said it was nothing.

"I'm not that delicate. By the way, do you know the vegetarian sausage hotpot restaurant in front of Xinhua Primary School?" Zhou Yuwen rarely goes home. Compared with the delicacies from land and sea, Zhou Yuwen actually misses the snacks he has eaten since he was a child.

"Ah! Are you talking about what the old lady at the door made?" Li Shiqi obviously knew it, and after Zhou Yuwen reminded her, Li Shiqi suddenly wanted to eat it too.

Zhou Yuwen said he didn't know whether she could open the door now.

“Let’s drive over and take a look.”

Zhou Yuwen asked the driver to navigate to Xinhua Primary School.

The small county town was pitch dark at night.

Except for the street lights that were lit one after another, there was nothing else over there.

It takes only a few minutes to drive to Xinhua Primary School.

During this process, Zhou Yuwen chatted briefly with Li Shiqi and found out that she was actually from Xinhua Primary School. They went to the same primary school.

Li Shiqi was also shocked when she heard this. She asked Zhou Yuwen curiously, "Don't you know?"

Zhou Yuwen really didn't have much impression of it.

As a result, Li Shiqi found out that Zhou Yuwen was from Class 7 and she was from Class 5.

Logically, the two should have known each other for a long time.

In fact, Zhou Yuwen has known her longer than Su Qing.

After hearing this, Zhou Yuwen just smiled and said he really had no impression of it.

When I was a kid, I was so busy playing games and watching Dragon Ball that I didn’t pay any attention to this.

Zhou Yuwen still remembers that the TV on-demand channel used to play Dragon Ball every day, showing how Sun Goku went to Namek and met the Ginyu Force.

There are also the Chinese Kids that I watched before, Hua Xiaolan, Chen Xiaohu, and Tang Xiaolong.

Only one episode is aired a day. Every time I wait in front of the TV with great anticipation. Then when the opening theme starts playing, I rush to the bathroom excitedly to pee, so as not to miss the best time to watch it.

Looking back now, Zhou Yuwen really feels that it was so childish.

I didn’t know what was so good about these cartoons before, but I just liked them at that time.

At that time, I felt that every day passed very slowly and I could experience a lot of things every day.

Now that I'm older I don't have that feeling anymore.

When the car drove to Xinhua Primary School, Zhou Yuwen recalled many past memories. The corner to the east of the school was where the old lady sold vegetarian sausages.

That corner was a rare lively place in the small county town. In the past, only a few small vendors set up stalls and sold things to the elementary school students coming and going for a few cents.

Later, as these students grew up, they would always recall the snacks they ate when they were young, such as shabu-shabu vegetarian sausages, grilled pork liver, and mushroom wraps with side dishes.

Although these things are cheap, I really couldn't afford them when I was a child. Then when I grew up, I thought I finally had money, and I was so happy that I decided to go on a spending spree.

When I came back, I found that the vegetarian sausage that used to cost one cent was now sold for one dollar.

A burrito that cost fifty cents was sold for four dollars.

In this crappy city, not only is the salary low, but the consumption is also extremely high.

It was already very late at this time, but a few small vendors still had their lights on, and I could vaguely see a few people buying wraps there.

Zhou Yuwen asked the driver to park the G-Class on the side of the road and wait for him in the car.

Then he and Li Shiqi went downstairs to buy a few skewers of vegetarian sausages and wraps.

People who come here to eat are basically the same as Zhou Yuwen, who used to study here and now come here to reminisce about their childhood.

During the Chinese New Year, generation after generation of grown-up children bring their boyfriends and girlfriends from other places to taste the flavors of their childhood.

The old lady selling vegetarian sausages is still the same one.

Zhou Yuwen asked how much it cost, and the old woman said fifteen yuan.

Zhou Yuwen was stunned for a moment: "So expensive?"

The old woman said, oh, of course, prices are so expensive now!

Zhou Yuwen was helpless and handed the money to her.

Zhou Yuwen and Li Shiqi said that they remembered that it was one cent a skewer at that time, and they wanted to eat more this time.

Li Shiqi smiled and nodded. She remembered that this old lady was not a good person. When she was a child, she didn't have much money and was greedy. She worked hard to earn a dime of pocket money, so she was embarrassed to come over to eat when there were many people around.

When there were fewer people around, I came over secretly to ask for a string of vegetarian sausages.

As a result, the old lady said directly, "Oh my god, you have the nerve to come here to eat for only one cent!"
At that time, Li Shiqi didn't say anything, but just ate her vegetarian sausage silently.

But Li Shiqi still remembers this sentence.

The old woman heard Zhou Yuwen's complaints and said while helping him make vegetarian sausage: "How many years have you graduated? At that time, eggs were still 20 cents each."

After hearing this, Zhou Yuwen smiled and said nothing.

At this time, the boy next to him, who was wearing a big red coat and came with his girlfriend to eat snacks, kept staring at Zhou Yuwen. He was too embarrassed to recognize him, and after a long time he couldn't help asking: "Zhou? Zhou Yuwen?"

Zhou Yuwen turned around and glanced at him. To be honest, he didn't know him, but he still greeted him politely: "Hello."

The boy laughed immediately: "It's you! Do you still remember me? We were in the same class in elementary school! I'm Li Xu!"

"Oh, I have an impression." Zhou Yuwen said.

Li Xu was very excited and quickly introduced Zhou Yuwen to his girlfriend: "I told you that Zhou Yuwen and I were classmates in elementary school! You didn't believe me! Look, you've seen him in person!"

Li Xu's girlfriend was also shocked. She had just come out to have a drink with her boyfriend and have a midnight snack, but she didn't expect to meet the person in the news.

If I had known she would have put on makeup.

It makes her feel a little embarrassed now.
