"Got it, idiot."Shu Ping smiled. He looked cute when he was at a loss.
"I have an idea. Why don't we start the internship phase of our relationship from today? The first three months will be the probation period. After the probation period, if we get along well, we can officially date with the intention of getting married. What do you think?"
Huo Feng's expression froze as expected, just like a basin of ice water was suddenly poured on him when he was full of enthusiasm. His heart sank.
"You mean we don't make it public, and when people ask me if I have a partner, I can't mention being with you?"
"Well, can you accept that?"
Huo Feng was silent for a long while, and finally nodded with difficulty, "Okay, I accept it. I have no objection as long as you're satisfied."
Shu Ping chuckled, "I was just kidding you. You look like your face is turning blue. You must be very unhappy, right?"
In such a short while, Huo Feng's mood had gone up and down like a roller coaster several times. It was only because he was in good physical condition or he would have had a heart attack.
He stretched out his strong arm to show Shu Ping, "It's not an exaggeration. Look at my hair standing on end. I dare not raise any questions, for fear that you will regret it if I disagree."
Shu Ping saw that it was true. She shouldn't have bullied him by relying on his honesty. She reflected, "Don't worry, I won't lie to you in the future. You believe everything I say, and there is no sense of accomplishment if I deceive you."
Huo Feng smiled when he heard it, held her hand and said, "It's my fault for being too stupid, but I don't believe everything. If you point to the sun and say it's square, then I will definitely not be fooled."
The man's jokes were quite humorous. He didn't get angry because of her repeated "teasing". He was tolerant and knew how to use jokes to ease the atmosphere. There was no need to worry about boredom in the future.
Huo Feng's mood was obviously much higher the rest of the journey, and the smile between his eyebrows could not be concealed. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NøvᴇlFirᴇ(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
The head teacher notified the class to arrive at 9 o'clock. When the car drove to the school gate, it was not yet 8:30. If it wasn't for the delay of ten minutes, they would have come earlier.
The old man guarding the door was stunned for two seconds when he saw the car coming. Private cars are rare these days. Usually only the principal takes a special car to go in and out.
Huo Feng held the frame of the car to hold a cigarette for the old man, and asked with a smile, "Uncle, we are here to get our diplomas. Can the car be moved in for a bit?"
The old man had sharp eyes and could tell that Huo Feng, who was driving, was not a student, but he remembered Shu Ping, who was sitting in the passenger seat. He took the cigarette and waved to let them in.
She could afford to drive a private car, so the old gatekeeper couldn't afford to offend her. There was no rule prohibiting private vehicles from entering the campus anyway.
"Drive straight along this road. I'll go to the dormitory first to see if everyone has arrived."
"Okay."
The lower grade students had not yet had their holiday, and it was the final review period. Most of the students on the road were in a hurry. Huo Feng drove steadily, and finally parked the car in an open space near the cafeteria.
"Wait for me here. I will come down in twenty minutes at the latest."
All graduating students were to arrive at class at nine o'clock and go to the school auditorium at nine-thirty. No matter whether roommates were in the dormitory or not, they could not waste time. It was not time to reminisce about the past.
She climbed up to the fifth floor in one breath. As expected, the door of 506 was open. Shu Ping was the last to arrive. The other six people, except for one local, came back last night and had just packed their luggage.
"Who is this? Our Factory Director Shu is finally here."
Yu Lu was the first to see her. After she called out, everyone in the dormitory put down their things and gathered at the door.
Except for those she had seen before, the remaining three were the first time Shu Ping had seen. Perhaps because of the memory of the original owner, it was easy for her to feel close to them.
"It's really different after becoming a factory director. I can't say where she has changed, but she looks more imposing and beautiful anyway."
"Shu Ping is very powerful. My aunt's family runs a store. I heard her mention Hongyuan Food several times. She said that there is a type of bread that sells very well. Customers buy it by the scale of twenty or thirty, and they have to queue up to buy it."
The person who said this was Zhu Xiaojuan.
"Really? It's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance. She used to be the most quiet and introverted among us. She would blush when she went to the store to buy something. I didn't expect that she has grown to this level after not seeing her for a few months."
"Don't praise me anymore. If you praise me more, my tail will be lifted up. I didn't come here empty-handed today. I brought you a lot of food. I'll give it to you after I'm done with my work."
Ten boxes of meat floss bread and toffee that was just developed not long ago. This is a new production line that was transformed after the edible sugar workshop stopped production. It takes the mid-to-high-end route and is sold exclusively in shopping malls and import stores. The current sales status is in short supply.
"Really? You also brought us food? Where is it? Don't leave it downstairs for others to take."
As expected, foodies of all ages are the same. Shu Ping explained helplessly, "Don't worry, I'm driving. The food is in the car. I guarantee that no one can take it away."
Everyone was amazed again.
"What, you can drive! Tell us what else you can't do."
Shu Ping smiled implicitly and glanced at everyone. She didn't want to hide her emotional problems at all. She said in a boastful tone, "I haven't taken the test yet. My boyfriend sent me here. He's downstairs. I brought him here specially to show you. Isn't your friend nice enough?"
"Ah!" The whole floor heard the screams from 506. However, today is the graduation ceremony, which means that the entire graduating class will leave the campus and become formally employed and paid people in society. No matter how excited they are, they can understand it. They won't doubt whether it's a fire problem.
"Oh my God, you found a partner, it's too fast. Tell us the details quickly. How did you get together?"
"Usually, it's introduced by family, otherwise it won't be so fast."
Shu Ping looked at the time. It was already past nine forty, and it would take a while to walk to the classroom.
"There's no time left. Let's talk while we walk."
Everyone saw that it was true, and quickly took the keys, bags, locked the door and left.
"He's downstairs, you'll see him in a moment. He's the fleet manager of our factory, a retired soldier, a few years older than me, and a very nice guy, with a good personality and a down-to-earth attitude. If you like such a good man, you have to act quickly, otherwise you'll miss him forever."
Everyone went downstairs laughing and giggling. Just from Shu Ping's expression and description, they knew that the other person must be a good person, not to mention that he came from the army. People all over the country have a very favorable impression of soldiers.
When they arrived at the cafeteria door, they saw a tall and straight figure standing in front of the car a few dozen meters away, with his hands in his pockets. His height and appearance were no less than the various models on the posters.
"He's too handsome. I'll go back and ask if there are any comrades who are short of a partner. If they just meet his standards then he should introduce you to a few of them, and we will give him a big red envelope. "
Huo Feng also saw them over there. Although he acted very calm, Shu Ping could still see that his expression and movements were a little stiffer than usual, but his foundation was still there, and his overall performance was good. Shu Ping took advantage of his roommate's inattention and secretly gave him a thumbs up. He pursed his lips and lowered his head with a bright smile.
The schedule was very full that day. After gathering for a few times, they didn't set out on the road back until they had dinner with their roommates in the evening. Everyone was sad, but more of a vision of future life. They exchanged contact information and agreed to find time to meet and chat every year and be good friends for life.
Although Shu Ping had experienced similar farewells a few years ago and knew that many things after leaving campus were not as beautiful as imagined, she did not say anything to spoil the fun, and would also cherish this friendship on behalf of the original owner. No matter what the future holds, she will be the most determined one.
