Chapter 209 New Year’s Eve


Chapter 209 New Year’s Eve

Chen Xi remembered that Zhang Lili’s family conditions were good. According to her father’s connections and family conditions, she shouldn’t just go to a vocational school.

But after just hearing the conversation between the two, he felt that everything had changed. Cui Zeming's father was so powerful, so he still suffered. Zhang Lili's family might have also had changes. So many years have passed, what? Things can happen.

In his previous life, he seemed to have heard someone say that Zhang Lili married to a rich man in Shanghai. After all, she was beautiful, so it was not difficult to marry someone with good conditions.

“I am Zhao Lingshan, do you still have an impression?”

"Long time no see, Zhao Lingshan."

Cui Zeming greeted him warmly, but thinking of what he had just said, he felt a little embarrassed and immediately lowered his head. He is very unconfident now. Just like Chen Xi in his previous life, his family suffered changes and fell from high to low, which can seriously damage a person's self-esteem.

"Okay, everyone has difficulties."

Chen Xi looked at Cui Zeming in front of him with some sympathy, as if he was looking in a mirror and saw himself before.

"You are..."

"Chen Xi."

"Long time no see, you two have become a couple. I have seen it since I was a child."

Cui Zeming quickly changed the subject to resolve his embarrassment .

"What's so great, isn't she the eldest lady of Jiangnan? If my family hadn't..." Zhang Lili immediately shut up in the middle of her words. Like Cui Zeming, something happened to her father in her family. It's not as good as it used to be.

Now that she is in a vocational school, it is simply embarrassing. If her classmates find out, how can she still hang out in Xinlu.

Zhang Lili could only snort coldly and continue to pretend to be aloof as before. At the same time, she glared at Cui Zeming, hinting him not to tell the truth.

What she cares about most is her pretty face and reputation. Now Zhang Lili can only use lies to protect everything.

"Hey, do you think you look like a fairy? I advise you to go out more and don't stay in your little vocational college all day."

"What's the matter? That's great. I just found a rich boyfriend. I'll find one another day." Zhang Lili glanced at Chen Xi, then curled her lips at Zhao Lingshan.

"You damn Zhang Lili, if you dare to cuckold me, I will skin you." Cui Zeming suddenly became angry. He actually dared to speak like this in front of an acquaintance. He really wanted to Slap this woman with cerebral palsy to death.

"Hmph, your dad has already ruined himself. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here?"

"Pa!"

Cui Zeming couldn't hold it back and slapped him. In the past, Zhang Lili's pretty face suddenly became red and swollen.

"If you dare to hit me, just wait for me! And you, Zhao Lingshan, I remember you." Zhang Lili covered her face and ran out crying.

“You have such a long face, and your brain is not working well!” Zhao Lingshan looked at Zhang Lili leaving and sneered disdainfully.

"Sit down and eat together. Why are you two together?" Chen Xi asked the waiter to lick a pair of bowls and chopsticks. He remembered that Zhang Lili was in a relationship with his classmate Liu Xing.

"Forget it, I picked up a broken shoe. She was in love with someone else before, just that meteor. She said she was cheated on her relationship, and then she came to me to cry. I comforted her, and then..."< br>
"Um...Meteor is pretty good, he doesn't look like that kind of person." Chen Xi naturally didn't believe it. He and Meteor grew up in kindergarten, and the boy was handsome and sweet-tongued, so he attracted girls. I like it, but I'm not a scumbag.

"Well, now I understand, it must be Zhang Lili's fault. My family's conditions were pretty good at that time." Cui Zeming didn't eat food and looked a little reserved. This was completely different from his arrogant appearance in school. Different, it feels like two people.

It seems that certain things can really change a person completely.

"Come and eat the food, don't just talk about it. What about your dad..." Chen Xi pointed at the food on the table, and then asked hesitantly.

“There’s nothing to be embarrassed to say. Everyone in Xinlu knows it. My father was also unlucky and was tricked. He wanted to cooperate with people from Qilin City, but he was tricked. Was he involved in some kind of pyramid scheme? "

"Where is Qilin? What's your last name?"

"I don't know, the person who was arrested there. There are a lot of them. It’s all broadcast on TV. I’m a celebrity now, and all the guys who used to eat and drink around me have disappeared.”

Cui Zeming lowered his head. As he was eating, he looked very unhappy. He felt unhappy when he thought about this. He used to be a second-generation official, and he got what he asked for, but now he has become like this.

"It's fate, you said our Uncle Cui was fine, so why did he go in!"

"Let him out now."

"Aren't you two doing well? Now you have become We got married, which university did we go to?”

“We are not...”

Chen Xi had long wanted to explain his relationship with Zhao Lingshan, but when he was about to speak, he was interrupted. People crossed their arms.

"Hee hee, we two are a good match. Now we are studying in Tu'ao!" Zhao Lingshan looked like a little woman, completely different from the queen just now.

“Ah, I even went abroad! It seems that I am doing well. Several of our former classmates have gone abroad to study, some to beautiful countries, and some to Canada. Hey, I just It's too bad. After studying at Xinlu Agricultural University, I might have to go out to farm in the future! , a hundred times better than Zhang Lili’s vocational school.

I thought that if I had not gone abroad in high school, I would probably have been able to go to a second-rate university now. His studies were average, and it would be difficult to get good grades in the college entrance examination, so his family sent him directly. Going abroad can also satisfy Chen's father's divorce plan.

After chatting with Cui Zeming for a long time, I almost learned something about the MLM organization. This was a case solved by the Qinhuai City Public Security Bureau, which directly involved people from several places.

Cui Zeming's father was very unlucky. He was immediately investigated and finally convicted. After he was released, he lost his official position.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for his father to do anything through his previous relationship. However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Chen Xi thinks that his father still has a chance to engage in business. Yes, after all, he was still a leader before.

The two exchanged contact information, and after saying goodbye for a while, Chen Xi took Zhao Lingshan to the pedestrian street.

Looking at the time, it’s almost 9 o’clock now. It took so long to finish a meal.

“Do you think Zhang Lili is better-looking or me?”

"Of course you are good-looking. I feel disgusted when I think about how you looked like a bitch just now. I used to think she was a great beauty, but now I think about it~ Fortunately, Cui Zeming broke up with her this time. Otherwise, he would be unlucky if he married her back home. "

"It seems that you had a deep impression on her before."

"No. Yes, I didn’t recognize her just now!”

“What are you feeling guilty about? I won’t eat you. I’m not like her. I’m still very gentle.”< br>
Zhao Lingshan held Chen Xi's arm affectionately and laughed while walking. The two leaned against each other and strolled leisurely on the pedestrian street.

The surrounding crowd was bustling and lively.

There are vendors selling fireworks and balloons everywhere, and the colorful products sparkle under the lights, adding a strong atmosphere to the festival.

People’s faces are filled with joy and expectation, and everyone is busy preparing to welcome the upcoming New Year’s Eve moment.

There are a dazzling array of shops on both sides of the pedestrian street, from fashionable clothing to exquisite trinkets, from fragrant food stalls to elegant hotels, each shop exudes unique charm.

Chen Xi and Zhao Lingshan sometimes stopped to admire the products in the store, and sometimes commented on the store's decorative style. The conversation between them was full of relaxation and laughter.

From time to time, the sound of children playing and the explosion of fireworks could be heard from the surrounding crowd, and the air was filled with a strong festive atmosphere and the aroma of delicious food.

These sounds and smells are intertwined to form a vivid and lively New Year's Eve picture.

Chen Xi and Zhao Lingshan were wandering aimlessly, enjoying this rare leisure and intimacy.

Their figures shuttled among the crowd, seeming to be the most harmonious couple in the world.

On the bustling pedestrian street, an ancient temple that has gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes stands quietly there.

At this time, it is opening its doors, welcoming a steady stream of believers who come to offer incense.

The curls of cigarette smoke are in stark contrast to the silence of the ancient temple and the hustle and bustle of the pedestrian street, as if it is the intersection of two worlds.

People pray for peace and make wishes for the future here, while the ancient temple quietly listens to everyone's wishes.

“Let’s put some incense on it!” Zhao Lingshan held his hand with excitement on her face.

"Okay." Chen Xi didn't believe this at first, but since he was reborn, he felt that the world was still wonderful, and maybe there really were gods.

He was pulled along by Zhao Lingshan and pushed into the crowd. There were many people in the temple at this time, and everyone was crowding each other forward.

After a long wait, a full hour later, they finally bought the incense.

Holding the bunch of lit incense in their hands, the two stood in the temple and began to make wishes devoutly.

The smoke curls up and rises, as if taking their wishes to the sky, witnessing the piety and expectation of this moment together with the thousand-year-old ancient temple.

"What wish did you make?" Zhao Lingshan asked.

"Ahem...it's a bit hard to say." Chen Xi coughed lightly.

The wish he just made is of course to defeat his father, and by the way, let him live a good life in this life and avoid problems in the future, and then his relationship will be smooth, and he will not get married until his death in his previous life.

"What's the shame of saying this? Are you..."

"Beat him to death, beat him to death!"

"How dare you steal the merit box. ”

Zhao Lingshan's words were interrupted by shouts that erupted around her, and the two of them looked over with wide eyes.

Nima, you stole the merit box from the temple in front of so many people, I’m afraid you’re not stupid!
