January 28, 2006, today is Yang Ming's first New Year's Eve since his freshman year in high school.
"Da Ming, get up soon, your uncle's family will treat you later!" Mother Yang knocked on the door of Yang Ming's room and urged, "You are such a big child, and you still sleep late, don't you know what an important day is today?"
"Ah, Mom, let me sleep a little longer, I slept late yesterday..." Yang Ming was a little reluctant to go when he heard that his uncle invited him to dinner. Over the years, the relationship between my uncle's family and my family has not been very good.
Because of some conflicts between my father and uncle, even if the two families are sitting together for dinner, there is no lively atmosphere like relatives in the past, but a feeling of cynicism.
At the beginning, my uncle was also a worker of the Songjiang Bus Factory, but he chose to go to the sea in his early years. When he lobbied his father to go to the sea with him, he was not only rejected by his father, but also opposed by his father, so the conflict between the two arose. up.
The uncle believed that without a permanent job, he had to rely on himself if he wanted to get rich, but his father believed that being a worker would not worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life, which was not bad, at least there was no risk.
It has to be said that the uncle's thinking is advanced. Judging from the fact that the economic benefits of the Songjiang Bus Factory have been getting worse and worse over the years, the uncle's move is correct, but the father's thinking is too conservative.
From his father's initial hope that he could take over his class, to the current hope that Yang Ming will never follow in his footsteps, it can be seen that his father has regretted it a bit.
However, it's useless to regret it, the conflict between the two has already arisen, and it's not easy to mediate it, and with Yang Ming's current ability, it's impossible to mediate it.
Every time uncle Yang Dashan either shows off how much money he has earned, or compares his cousin Yang Li's academic performance with his own, causing his family to lose face.
"Sleeping to play? What did you do last night? Did you read an online novel?" Yang's mother immediately became a little angry when she heard Yang Ming say that he slept late: "You have been holding a book written by the second generation of murlocs all day long." It’s a novel, it looks like it’s been read, if you don’t sleep in the middle of the night, do you want to be beaten?”
"Mom, I didn't watch it..." Yang Ming denied.
In fact, he really didn’t read it. The second generation of murloc’s novel called "Rebirth Chasing Beauty" was already finished, so Yang Ming finished it after reading it for a few hours. .
The reason why he slept very late last night and suffered from insomnia was because he remembered that New Year's Eve three years ago, a long time ago.
At that time, Yang Ming had just entered the first year of junior high school, and his academic performance was also very good. The conflict between his family and his uncle's family had not yet intensified to the current level. With his second place in the final exam, his father was still at the wine table. Very talkative.
Yang Ming remembered very clearly that his cousin Yang Li only took the whole class. Therefore, even with the glory of the uncle's money-making, the two families are still evenly matched, and the uncle dare not be too cynical about his family, for fear that the father will shift the topic to the child's grades.
That year, the place to eat was the Nevernight Hotel. However, Nightless Sky at this time is not Bao Sanli's industry, but an industry invested by a southern boss, and it is Yu Xiangde who is watching the situation here.
In the box, listening to his uncle bragging about those boring business affairs, Yang Ming felt a little boring, so he used the excuse of going to the bathroom to go downstairs in the hotel to get some air.
"Huh!" Yang Ming walked out of the smoky box. At this time, Yang Ming didn't know how to smoke, so he was a little disgusted with the smoke.
Just as the elevator doors not far away opened, a wave of guests came up, Yang Ming quickly ran two steps and entered the elevator.
Pressing the button on the first floor, the elevator glides down slowly, and finally stops at the first floor, and the elevator door slowly opens again.
"Huh?" The moment Yang Ming stepped out of the elevator, he saw that familiar face among the group of people walking towards him - a girl as delicate as a porcelain doll, his tablemate Su Ya.
The moment the elevator door opened, Su Ya also saw Yang Ming, and was slightly taken aback. Seeing that Yang Ming just wanted to say hello to herself, Su Ya quickly stretched out her finger to her mouth and made a silent gesture.
Su Ya came with her father and a few of his business partners, so she naturally couldn't let her father know about the ambiguous relationship between herself and Yang Ming.
In fact, this is because Su Ya is too careful, she just has a ghost in her heart. If it's just ordinary classmates who meet each other and say hello, there's nothing wrong with it, and it's impossible for father Su Haikuo to think too much.
Although Yang Ming didn't understand why Su Ya didn't ask him to speak, but seeing the adults next to Su Ya, Yang Ming could guess something, so he nodded imperceptibly, and continued to walk out of the elevator.
Yang Ming couldn't bear to look at Su Ya, but he felt a little bit reluctant. Since the holiday until now, the two of them haven't seen each other again.
"Wait for me for a while." The moment the two passed by, Su Ya whispered in Yang Ming's ear in an inaudible voice.
However, this mosquito-like sound lifted Yang Ming's spirits! Su Ya asked herself to wait for her for a while... Could it be that she will come to find herself?
Although Yang Ming had too many questions in his mind at the moment, he didn't dare to ask them out. After all, Su Ya's family was on the sidelines. If Yang Ming talked too much, he would feel uncomfortable.
Resisting to turn back to look at Su Ya's body, Yang Ming kept walking forward until he got out of the hotel gate. Then he let out a sigh of relief and couldn't help but look behind him.
Su Ya's family and Su's father's friends had already entered the elevator. The moment the elevator door closed, Yang Ming saw Su Ya's bright star-like eyes, and seemed to wink at him.
"Unexpectedly, Su Ya's family also came here to eat, it seems that her family is not simple!" Yang Ming said to himself with some sighs. Nightless Sky is now considered a very high-end entertainment venue in Songjiang. It integrates catering, ktv, bowling alley, and game hall, and is deeply loved by some wealthy bosses. It is the best choice for family gatherings and business negotiations.
Although Yang Ming is only a first-year student at the moment, under the influence of his uncle's meanness, he also understands some rules in this society.
Yang Ming fastened the buttons of his coat and sat on the steps of the parking lot in front of Buyetian Gate. In this era, there are not many people with cars, and the parking lot looks very empty.
Yang Ming, who originally wanted to come out to calm down, became anxious at this moment. Almost every once in a while, he had to look back to see if Su Ya had come out to find him.
However, after looking back a few times, he didn't find Su Ya's figure. Yang Ming was a little disappointed, and even wondered if he had heard it wrong just now and had hallucinations.
Maybe it was because I wanted to see her too much, which caused my hearing problem? Probably so.
"Hey..." Yang Ming sighed self-deprecatingly, what is this? puppy love? It doesn't seem to be the case, it should just have a good impression on Su Ya, I just want to see her and talk to her, and there are no other thoughts mixed in it.
"Yang Ming, why are you sighing? Today is the Chinese New Year!" A voice like the sound of nature sounded behind Yang Ming: "I said that if you sigh during the New Year, you will sigh for a year. Don't you think you will be unhappy all year?"
The sound made Yang Ming's heart tremble, and he turned his head quickly, only to see Su Ya standing prettyly behind him, wearing a light pink down jacket, in this snowy season, like a snow elf descending from the mortal world.
"Are you really here?" Yang Ming rubbed his eyes in disbelief: "I didn't hallucinate, did I?"
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me just now? I was thinking just now, would you wait for me?" Su Ya took two steps forward, leaned down, patted the snow on the steps, and sat down. Beside the seat where Yang Ming was sitting just now.
"Hehe..." Yang Ming scratched his scalp and laughed silly.
