Verify? Lou Cheng opened his contact list and was about to give Lin Que a call.
Just as he found the entry of "Brother-in-law", his fingers suddenly paused.
Back then, they had won the championship together. Now, one of them was a Physical Invulnerability expert, while the other was still at the Inhuman stage. Furthermore, they had to revisit old haunts and reminisce about the past. If it were me, I wouldn't go either! Just like what they said on the internet, who would go to the reunion ten years later if they weren't doing well? Not to mention those with super high self-esteem … Lou Cheng looked at his phone and nodded slightly. He felt that he could understand Brother-in-law's mentality.
Therefore, wouldn't it be blatantly boastful to make such a call?
Hmm, let's use a more tactful method … Lou Cheng opened the contact list interface and found Lin Que's QQ. He wrote a message,
"Are you going back to Songcheng for the opening ceremony?"
After clicking send, he didn't expect to receive an immediate reply. Brother-in-law was the kind of person who didn't show up for many years.
Just as he was about to exit the interface and report to his wife, a beep sounded. Lin Que replied,
"Yes."
Lou Cheng was dumbfounded by this simple word.
This is different from the standard answer, mate!
Of course, he was too embarrassed to ask why. After thinking for a long time, he got rid of the feeling of being unable to reply.
"Haha, see you in Songcheng."
Lin Que replied quickly,
"Okay."
At that time, the atmosphere was very cold … Lou Cheng complained. He temporarily left the conversation with Lin Que and found Yan Zheke. [Wiping Sweat in Horror expression]
"Your brother is going to …"
The girl first replied with an emoji of shock and then replied with an emoji of rolling her eyes,
"Emmmm … My brother still has feelings for Songcheng University and the Martial Arts Club … Although he didn't say it, I can see it."
"But his actions are still very honest." Lou Cheng joked and then complained to his little fairy, "Is your brother always so cool and cold when chatting online? He always uses one word to dismiss me without a second word …"
"No, my brother is just used to using the simplest words. He doesn't say anything unnecessary, as long as he can express his meaning clearly." Yan Zheke said, rubbing her chin.
"But that feeling of being cold and distant is very obvious." Lou Cheng said, pretending to shiver.
Yan Zheke replied with a dumbstruck expression, "My brother is like this all the time. It has nothing to do with chatting online."
"Uh, that's true." Lou Cheng thought for a while and said, "Then I'll ask him a complicated question. Let's see if he can answer me in a few words!"
"What's the problem?" The girl was curious.
"I want to ask him when he will arrive in Songcheng. I can't possibly use one word to express it clearly, can I?" Lou Cheng replied with a smug expression.
After a few seconds, he returned and sent a "crying face" emoji.
"Eh, my brother only used one word? How did he do it? "Yan Zheke's eyes sparkled, and her heart was full of curiosity.
Lou Cheng replied with a 'sluggish' expression.
"Your brother didn't say a single word this time …"
"He took a screenshot of the flight information and threw it to me …"
Yan Zheke froze for a second, then laughed out loud and sent an emoji of pounding the ground madly.
…
April 6th, Songcheng Shenghao Wanjing Hotel.
Lou Cheng was led to his room by the staff of the Organizing Committee who was in charge of receiving him.
"Mr. Lou, there will be a luncheon tomorrow at 11: 30 pm. The opening ceremony will start at 7 pm. A car will come to pick you up then," the organizing committee member reminded him respectfully.
"Okay." Lou Cheng nodded slightly and watched him leave.
When the door was closed, he was no longer as reserved and mature as before. Holding his phone and smiling, he leisurely took pictures of the situation in the room from various angles and sent them to Yan Zheke.
"The Organizing Committee is quite generous with their money."
It was 5: 00 pm in Connecticut, and the girl was still asleep. After sending the pictures, Lou Cheng planned to contact Talker and ask his teammates if they wanted to have a meal together.
Just as he typed the first word, he felt something in his heart and looked at the door.
A few seconds later, there was a rhythmic knock on the door.
Lou Cheng walked over with a smile and opened the door. It was indeed Little Ming, who was dressed casually.
"I was just about to look for you. Our hearts are connected." He made a joke.
Cai Zongming said disdainfully,
"I knocked one by one. If anyone is here, I will invite them to a meal together."
After saying that, heads popped out from behind him. There was Li Mao with a square face, Sun Jian and Lin Hua who were about to get married, He Zi, Wang Dali and Mu Jinnian who were still fit for this year's competition. In front of the opposite wall stood Lin Que, who was dressed simply and neatly. He had the same short hair as before. He was still silent, as if nothing had changed.
Cai Zongming smiled and spread his hands.
“Surprise？”
Surprise? Surprise your head! Do you think I'm blind? Do you think my mental senses are fake? Before you even knocked on the door, I already knew how many people were there and who they were! Lou Cheng's mouth twitched, and he expressed his disdain with his eyes.
"Let's go. There is a restaurant nearby that is suitable for us to brag about." Cai Zongming raised his chin and pointed in the direction of the elevator.
"Okay." Lou Cheng didn't dawdle. He took the things and closed the door.
When he passed by Lin Que, he took a good look at him and was relieved to find that his brother-in-law seemed to have recovered from the inhumane modification experiment. He was full of energy and his body was normal, but he didn't see much improvement. Anyway, according to Ke, it was a blessing in disguise.
Lou Cheng smiled and raised his right hand to Lin Que, just like the prelude to the high five in the University Martial Arts Competition.
However, Lin Que didn't move. Lou Cheng felt that his brother-in-law was looking at him as if he was looking at a childish person.
This is f * cking embarrassing … Lou Cheng was about to withdraw his hand with a hollow laugh when Lin Que finally raised his hand and gave him a high five.
Cai Zongming stood aside and tried to hold back his laughter.
"Cheng, you didn't even give us a high five. I want to complain about the difference in treatment! Hey, since ancient times, only the newcomers laughed. Who has ever heard the old cry? "
"You are full of drama." Lou Cheng laughed and scolded him.
He Zi, who was behind them, focused on the previous scene. She took out a pen and paper from her backpack but couldn't draw anything for a long time.
"You want to draw a little yellow rabbit?" Wang Dali couldn't help but distance himself from her.
He Zi nodded seriously and answered in a low voice,
"I've already finished a 500,000-word novel in my mind."
…
Ten minutes later, Lou Cheng looked around in shock and said to Cai Zongming in a bad mood,
"Is this what you mean by a restaurant that suits us?"
What kind of eyes would treat a food stall as a restaurant?
Cai Zongming laughed and said,
"This is called remembering the bitterness and thinking of the sweetness. Plus, when we gather together, there will be a lot of lamenting about the past. The private room doesn't feel grounded enough. This is better. No one will stop you even if you sing with a beer bottle."
"I do miss the food stall in Songcheng." Li Mao said in a reminiscing tone.
Actually, so do I. Lou Cheng agreed silently.
That was the most unforgettable period of his life.
After finding a remote place to set up the table, Cai Zongming, as usual, was busy ordering food and drinks. When he was done, he sat beside Lou Cheng and patted Li Mao's shoulder.
"Senior Li Mao, you're chubby now. You're doing well."
"Not bad, not bad." Li Mao said humbly.
Cai Zongming smiled and said, "I heard you're the company's security supervisor now?"
Talker knows everyone's current situation very well … In this aspect, I'm far behind him. Some guys are just natural socializers … Lou Cheng listened with a smile and criticized Little Ming in his heart.
"I'm just the head of the security department." Li Mao laughed at himself.
On the other side, Sun Jian muttered, "Good thing you're not a concierge … Ouch …"
Lin Hua pinched his thigh.
Li Mao pretended not to hear and continued the topic, "I went to Huahai to do security training before. Sigh, I realized that I didn't use the major I studied in university at all. Not even a little. I feel like I've wasted my life."
He couldn't help but joke.
"How is this a waste of time? You didn't even date in university! "Cai Zongming said sarcastically. A few people present felt like they had been shot in the knee.
After he got everyone's attention, he picked up the cup and knocked on the table with the bottom of the cup.
"Come, cheers! To Songcheng University Martial Arts Club, to our champion, to our burning passion, to our youth, to our reunion after so long!"
"Damn, you're so eloquent … You're so different after becoming a broadcaster …" Lou Cheng said to Little Ming. Then he knocked on the table and picked up the cup.
"To our youth, to our reunion!"
"To our youth, to our reunion!" Li Mao, Sun Jian and the others did the same thing and shouted the same words. Even Lin Que, who was always aloof, knocked on the cup and picked it up.
Cai Zongming "glanced" at Lou Cheng and shouted again,
"To the champion!"
After shouting, he raised his head and gulped down the entire bottle.
"To the champion!"
His voice echoed as if it was yesterday.
