Mixed in 1980

Chapter 103 The Death Penalty

Jingle Bell……

The alarm clock rang. Xu Jinqiu, in a daze, stretched out her white arm, turned it off with a snap, and pulled the blanket over her head.

"Big beast, dead bull, the production team's donkey..." Xu Jinqiu muttered a few words in a daze, and then fell asleep again.

Chen Fan has woken up and feels refreshed.

He glanced at the beauty beside him and raised the corner of his mouth slightly. This girl is funny. She drank a little bit of wine last night and couldn't tell the difference between the big and small ones.

He got up quickly and went out, locked the door, ran around the street, mailed the letter to Lao Gu, bought breakfast, and when he returned home, Xu Jinqiu was still sleeping soundly.

"Little girl, you still need to practice!"

Chen Fan didn't call her either. He left a breakfast and finished his own. Then he took out a pen and paper and continued writing "Awakening Age".

In recent days, I have written more than 50,000 words.

It's not fast!
Even from the very beginning, he never wrote quickly. Facing the characters in the book, Chen Fan wrote with a "pilgrimage" mentality, fearing that using inappropriate words would tarnish the "Mr."

Chen Fan still has no idea whether this book can pass the review.

Wang Jingyi made a special trip to Maoer Hutong a few days ago: "The attitude of the higher-ups is very vague, and I can't figure it out, but the best news is that they didn't directly kill the manuscript."

"You must be ready these days. The first seminar will be held soon. You will be required to go on stage to explain your creative ideas and the direction of the story."

"Don't let me down!"

Chen Fan has been preparing these days.

After working until after eleven o'clock, Xu Jinqiu got up in a daze. Seeing Chen Fan writing something, she did not disturb him. She went to wash up, glanced at breakfast, and then looked at the time.

Forget it, I won’t eat it.

It’s almost time for lunch!

"My roommate Qiu, get ready. I'll take you to school later."

Roommate Qiu?
What the hell is that name?

Xu Jinqiu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help rolling her eyes: "My roommate Fan, please dress up and don't affect the appearance of our campus."

"Will my appearance affect the image of your campus?"

Chen Fan straightened his clothes and coughed lightly, "My roommate Qiu, your comrade Lao Chen is also a famous handsome young man in the 16th alley of Nanluoguxiang. I advise you not to be ungrateful."

Xu Jinqiu Haha, this guy's eloquence hasn't changed at all.

And the names are getting weirder and weirder.

Comrade Xu Jinqiu, Comrade Qiuer, my wife, classmate Xu Jinqiu... and now another "roommate Qiu" has popped up. Day by day, I don't know what he is thinking about.

But I'm going to Peking University today, so I really should dress up.

She combed her hair carefully, put on some light makeup, changed into a Bohemian-style suspender dress, and paired it with a light, loose short-sleeved shirt.

Xu Jinqiu stood in front of the mirror, turned around, and felt that something was missing. She opened the jewelry box again and put on the necklace, bracelet, ring, and earrings.

After getting dressed, Xu Jinqiu cast a coquettish glance over and said, "My roommate Fan, take your luggage and follow me. I will show you around our Beijing Normal University."

"Just be skinny!"

Chen Fan picked up his luggage, which actually didn't have much stuff in it. He only brought a mat, a blanket, and a bucket with some toiletries in it and a basin on top.

The dormitory is only used for lunch breaks, so there is no need to bring too many things.

Xu Jinqiu originally didn’t want a dormitory. Her home was right at the school gate, so she could just go home and rest at noon.

However, Chen Fan advised her to live there. The most reliable relationships in college are often with roommates. After graduation, these relationships will become personal connections.

This relationship was particularly evident in the 80s.

In 1980, the university admission rate was only 8.4%, which was an extremely small number of people. Graduates were assigned to cadre positions, and it happened to be the early stage of reform and opening up, so many of them would become powerful figures in the future.

This kind of network resource is almost free in college, but if it is applied to the workplace, it is difficult to obtain even if you put in ten or a hundred times the effort.

After entering the gate of Beijing Normal University, Chen Fan walked Xu Jinqiu all the way to the dormitory. Since school had not officially started yet, the dormitory manager did not stop them.

There was a group of young girls in the dormitory, all so charming and attractive, it felt like they had walked into the Pansy Cave.

"My dear sisters, please take good care of our Qiu'er from now on."

Chen Fan took out a bag of fruit from the bucket and said, "You guys chat first. I have to go out for a while. Let Qiu'er bring everyone to play at home when she has time."

After saying hello, Chen Fan withdrew first.

All the girls in the room were very curious. They heard Xu Jinqiu mention yesterday that she had a fiancé, but they didn't expect to see him today.

"This autumn's partner is really good, tall, handsome, and has a good temperament."

"She's quite generous. There are apples and bananas in the bag. I can tell that she comes from a well-off family. Most people wouldn't be willing to buy them."

"Are you stupid? They are trying to bribe us. With Jin Qiu's looks, there will definitely be many suitors in the future. They are counting on us to help spread the news that Jin Qiu is engaged."

“That’s exactly what happened.”

……

No matter what year it is, there is no shortage of smart people.

Someone immediately understood what Chen Fan did. Xu Jinqiu's roommates were the first firewall that Chen Fan had set up.

It is also possible that there are roommates who let wolves into the house. If there is such a person, Xu Jinqiu will probably slap her in the face. This girl only looks weak, but she is very clear in her heart.

Moreover, this is his first time here today, and school hasn't officially started yet, so just showing up is enough. After school starts, Chen Fan will definitely come here often, since it's right next to his home anyway.

"Roommate Fan, let's go. Our next stop is Beijing University. I have to go shopping!"

In the cafeteria of Beijing Normal University, they had a cafeteria meal. Xu Jinqiu held Chen Fan's arm all the way in and out, which was considered very bold in those days.

Chen Fan was confused even when he saw this!
When I take this girl out shopping, even if we just hold hands, she would blush and always keep her head down, for fear of being recognized.

Today, they even dare to take the initiative to hold hands.

"Let's go, roommate Qiu!"

After coming out of the school gate, Chen Fan called a tricycle. It was such a hot day, and he had to ride his bicycle here by himself, and he would probably be sweating again.

Xu Jinqiu didn't want to ride a bike either.

I've put on makeup today and am wearing a skirt. I'm sure I'll be sweating profusely if I ride a bike in this hot weather. My image will be completely ruined when I get to Peking University.

When they arrived at Peking University, Chen Fan was carrying the luggage and Xu Jinqiu was carrying a bag of fruit. They stood close to Chen Fan, attracting a lot of attention along the way.

More of the boys' gazes.

Then they all left a comment: "Bah, the good cabbage was eaten by a pig!"

Chen Fan brought Xu Jinqiu to Building 28. As they walked to the dormitory door, they heard Sun Ping'an's voice coming from inside: "I'll beat you to death!"

Xu Jinqiu looked at Chen Fan. What happened?

The fight broke out before the school even started. Are all the boys in the dormitory so violent?

"Catchphrase!"

Chen Fan almost laughed out loud, it’s only been one day and Sun Ping’an said he was addicted?
Got it!

The Northwest Hammer King has been cultivated!
Reaching out and pushing the door open, Chen Fan jokingly said, "Brother Sun, wow, I heard it when I was standing at the door. Who are you going to hit?"

"I was reading. I couldn't help it."

Sun Pingan scratched his head, looked at Cao Yang on the side, and quickly changed the subject: "Cao Yang, classmate Chen Fan is here, hurry up and meet him."

Upon hearing this, Cao Yang jumped down from the upper bunk, quickly grabbed a book from the table, and said with a distinct Sichuan and Chongqing accent: "Classmate Chen Fan, nice to meet you. My name is Cao Yang, and I'm a fan of your books."

"Hello, classmate Cao Yang. We will be in the same dormitory from now on, so don't be polite."

Chen Fan was secretly shocked. Peking University is really a place where many talented people are hidden. Just in this small dormitory, not only did Xin Yingjie emerge, but there is also Cao Yang.

In his previous life, Chen Fan knew this guy.

To be precise, we met a few times at business receptions, and that was all.

Even though he was wealthy, he was nothing in front of those big guys. But Cao Yang was different. He was the vice president of a bank.

It’s still from the head office!
"Yes, my dear boss. If my high school classmates knew that I lived in the same dormitory with you, they would all be furious."

Cao Yang took the book and grabbed a pen: "Classmate Chen Fan, write me a message. When I go back to my hometown during the winter vacation, I will make those classmates angry to death."

Chen Fan put the things down, took the book and pen, thought about some information about Cao Yang in his previous life, and wrote: May your life journey be filled with blooming flowers and beautiful encounters!

Cao Yang's life is really like this sentence.

In the 1980s, he was born in poverty, but he never forgot to study hard and became a top student at Peking University!
Good-looking and talented!
Then he married the daughter of a big boss, who had resources and background, and he took off immediately.

It seems that he always encounters beauty unexpectedly, and flowers bloom all the way on his journey of life. To sum it up in one sentence: a life of luck!

Cao Yang took it, read it once, grinned, said "good", and quickly put the book away: "Student Chen Fan, I'll help you pack up."

"Don't bother, I can do it myself."

Chen Fan turned his head to look outside the door and called Xu Jinqiu in: "Let me introduce you to my wife, Xu Jinqiu, who brought me here today."

"Hello, classmates. I am Xu Jinqiu. I came here in a hurry and brought you some fruits. Please take care of Chen Fan in the future." Xu Jinqiu put the fruit on the table.

There was a sudden silence in the dormitory!
"No wonder the article says it's as beautiful as a legend. It turns out it's not an exaggeration."

Everyone murmured secretly, and finally Sun Pingan spoke first: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, these two are fans of Chen Fan's books. In this dormitory, Chen Fan is a treasure."

Xin Yingjie pulled a stool and said, "Sister-in-law, please sit down."

"Thank you!"

Xu Jinqiu smiled, sat down, and looked around the dormitory environment. She felt it was similar to that of Beijing Normal University, both quite average.

"Hello everyone!"

Another person came outside the door.

His skin was a little dark, and he was carrying a luggage bag in one hand. He spoke with a Minnan accent: "I'm Chen Jianye, from the Economics and Management Class, and I live in dormitory 315."

"Another big bull comes!" Chen Fan muttered secretly.

This guy is really awesome.

The death penalty is so awesome!

Chen Fan was also puzzled. No matter how many talented people there were in Peking University, their appearance frequency couldn't be so high, right? There were already several of them in such a small dormitory.
