He understood fatherly love, worshipped and trusted his father, but his father did not trust him. He invaded his privacy, spied on him, and tried to control him.
He used his father's QQ account, Weibo, WeChat, browser, shopping website, and even the phone he used was produced by his father's company.
He almost forgot that his phone number was also from China Mobile. Although China Mobile was no longer under his father's control after several financial reorganizations, his father was still the fifth largest shareholder. He was an external director and had a huge influence on the company.
He was surrounded by spies and secret agents. He was basically broadcasting to Li Laoer naked.
Even if Li Laoer was his biological father, he could not accept it.
The sound of footsteps was especially clear in the empty corridor. Then, there was a knock on the door.
He opened the door and poked his head out. The hostel manager was chatting with his classmate.
The hostel manager said to his classmate, Huang Yiyong, "Move out as soon as possible. Today is the last day. We'll clean up after you guys leave."
He only heard Huang Yiyong say, "Don't worry, I'll be leaving soon."
The hostel manager said, "That's good. We know it's not easy for you graduates but this is the school's requirement. We can't do anything about it."
Huang Yiyong nodded. "Thank you, sir. I'll leave once I'm done packing."
The hostel manager glanced at Li Lan who was poking his head out and turned to go downstairs. It was not as Li Lan expected.
Li Lan thought that the hostel manager would talk to him like Huang Yiyong did. Why didn't he?
Oh right, he remembered that this hostel building was donated by his aunt. His school was his aunt's alma mater and she was now the president of the school's alumni association.
He felt an inexplicable sense of fear.
He was surrounded and his mind was in a mess. He used to think more about his hobbies and interests but now, he was always weighing the pain.
Huang Yiyong looked in his direction. He walked over and threw a cigarette at him. "You're leaving soon?"
"You didn't smoke before. Why are you smoking so frequently now?" Huang Yiyong was stunned.
Li Lan lit his cigarette for him and then for himself. He smiled. "I'll get used to it. It's not bad."
"Wow." Huang Yiyong felt something different when he put it in his mouth. He then looked at the brand. "Hard purple? I don't think there are many in the class who are willing to do this. A hundred yuan or so? "
Li Lan said, "It doesn't matter. I didn't draw much anyway."
"I'll be leaving soon. Why? Do you want to send me off?" Huang Yiyong asked.
Li Lan said, "If you need it, of course I can give it to you. Where is the unit? Is it far? What do you do? "
He found it strange that he had suddenly become so talkative and asked so many questions in a row.
Huang Yiyong said, "At Shi Jingshan's Creative Industrial Park, actually, at our level, it's the same no matter what unit we go to in the early stages. We still have to do the internship and learn more.
My unit is not bad. It's well-known. I'll go in and get some gold plating. In the future, it'll be easier for me to find my next unit. "
Li Lan said, "You're quite open-minded. Didn't you say you wanted to go back to your hometown last time?"
Huang Yiyong said, "That's what I'm thinking, but I'm not resigned to it. It wasn't easy for me to survive for four years. If I can't find a suitable job when I go back, wouldn't those four years be a waste?
So, I'll work here for a few years first. If I can't make it, I'll go back home and take the civil service exam. If I make it, it'll be a scene.
You locals are the most comfortable. Your home is here, and it'll be fine even if you don't work for three to five years. Anyway, there's a place to live at home and you don't have to pay rent. You don't have to worry about not having enough to eat. You just have to eat whatever your family eats. "
Li Lan said, "The one who laughs last is the real winner. I believe that the students in our class will not be bad in the future. It's only a matter of time before we become famous. There will be a place for us in the internet industry."
There was one thing he had to admit. During the college entrance examination, he had the upper hand.
Huang Yiyong took out his phone to look at the time and began to pack his luggage.
Li Lan helped him pack. After he was done, he carried two woven bags for him and sent him to the school gate.
The taxi stopped. Li Lan stuffed his luggage into the trunk and helped him pack everything.
Huang Yiyong said, "When I get my salary, I'll treat you to a big meal. It's a promise, don't change."
Li Lan said, "You don't have to specially treat me. I'll look for you another day. If it's breakfast, we'll have breakfast. If it's lunch, we'll have lunch."
Huang Yiyong said, "Then if I eat steamed buns, I'll treat you to steamed buns? That's ridiculous. "
"Are you leaving or not?" The taxi driver was getting impatient.
"Let's go." Huang Yiyong gave Li Lan a hug and turned to get into the car.
Li Lan watched as the car gradually drove away.
Now, he was the only one on the entire floor. The last rays of the setting sun shone through the windows of the porch, as if to bid farewell to the world for the last time.
With a backpack on his back, he pushed his luggage with one hand and carried a woven bag with the other as he walked out of the dormitory. The dormitory manager offered to help him, but he refused. He used his other hand to carry the bag as he walked down the stairs.
There happened to be a taxi downstairs. The driver waved at him, "Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."
"No need, thanks." Li Lan did not believe that this was luck. Otherwise, his luck would have been too good since he was young. He had never experienced any hardships or difficulties. It was not easy for him to have something to worry about, but it was from his parents.
Now, he increasingly felt that he was like the main character in "The Truman Show", living in a beautiful, fake world. He was set up, restricted, and imprisoned, but he did not know it.
He was not so pretentious that he had to experience hardship. He just wanted to live a real life. That way, the world would be interesting.
Everyone yearned for freedom, not just stability.
After insisting on waiting at the school gate for half an hour, he flagged down a taxi and went home. Standing in front of the door, he was still hesitating whether he should go in.
"You're back. Why didn't you tell me? I drove over to pick you up." He Fang helped him take the luggage from his hands and said with a smile, "You made it in time. Otherwise, you'd be picking up the leftovers."
"Thanks, Mom." Li Lan found that the table was filled with his favorite dishes.
"Why are you smoking?" Li He was sweeping the floor with his back bent. When he passed by him, he still smelled the smoke.
"Yeah, I don't smoke much." He pushed the mop over. He gave way and asked with a smile, "How have you been?"
He could not help but understand his father's personality. He had never seen him do any housework.
"I'm doing very well. I mop the floor when I want to, wash the dishes when I want to, and cook when I want to." Li Lao 'er was very loud. The speed at which his stomach bulged was beyond He Fang's ability to admit. Losing weight was a must.
