Chapter 61
The weather was very hot, but the weather was very hot.
A week later, at midnight, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
Ye Ning drove to the river.
At this time, apart from the roadside barbecue restaurant, only the 24-hour convenience store was still open.
"Old Four, come and sit down!"
Seeing Ye Ning coming over, a burly man on the small dining table greeted him warmly.
The table was already full of freshly grilled skewers, and it seemed that they had been waiting for a while.
Ye Ning went there with a smile on his face, and greeted, "Boss, it's been a long time since we last met."
The burly man was Ye Ning's college roommate, named Meng Du.
Meng Du was not a native of Jiangcheng, but a serious Northeast man.
In addition to the eldest brother Meng Du and the fourth brother Ye Ning, there are the second brother Li Bin and the third brother Qian Wentao.
After graduation, Li Bin and Qian Wentao both took the postgraduate entrance examination and both got on board and left Jiangcheng.
The contact between the few people gradually became less and less.
Only Meng Du and Ye Ning would get together from time to time.
"Boss, you said you were busy the last few times I asked you out. Why did you take the initiative to ask me out today?"
Meng Du is a planner in an advertising company and a part-time coach in a gym.
So he doesn't have much time to rest on weekdays and works almost every day.
Of course, he makes a lot of money.
The monthly income is more than 15,000 yuan, which is considered good no matter where you are.
"I asked you to come today because we brothers haven't gathered for a long time and have a meal together. The second is that I want to officially inform you that I'm getting married!"
"Really? Congratulations!" Ye Ning congratulated.
Because he was driving, he didn't want to drink, but he still raised the glass in front of him to toast Meng Du.
He was really happy for Mengdu.
In college, Mengdu was a quiet guy who didn't talk much.
He would blush for a long time when talking to girls.
But one day, Mengdu brought Tang Yiran, the beauty of the mathematics department, to Ye Ning and others.
The three people in the dormitory were stunned.
They scratched their heads and couldn't figure out how this quiet guy got a girlfriend, not to mention that she was the beauty of the department!
Later, in the three-party trial in the dormitory, they learned that it was Tang Yiran who took the initiative to pursue Mengdu.
It made several people hate it even more.
In fact, when the relationship between the two was exposed, many people were not optimistic.
They thought the gap was too big.
Although Mengdu looked good, he came from the countryside and his economic conditions were not good. He often worked part-time outside when he was in college.
Tang Yiran was a native of Jiangcheng, and his family had a house in the center of Jiangcheng.
Even if they were not rich, they were at least well-off.
Moreover, Tang Yiran had many suitors, including some rich young men.
Many people in the class thought that the graduation season for the two was the breakup season.
But a few years later, the relationship was still as good as before, and the two were about to get married.
Ye Ning had watched them all the way, and now they were finally going to get married, and she sincerely wished them all the best.
"What? After a few years, you finally got your mother-in-law?" Ye Ning raised his eyebrows at Meng Du and grinned.
Ye Ning knew that if Tang Yiran's mother had not disagreed with their marriage.
With their feelings, perhaps the two would have been together a long time ago.
There was no way, Meng Du was not a native of Jiangcheng, and his family conditions were not good, so it was normal for the girl's parents to make some moderate demands.
Fortunately, Meng Du was very hardworking and motivated. He was alone in Jiangcheng, and he also made a name for himself.
Hearing Ye Ning's words, Meng Du's expression froze slightly, and his hand holding the wine glass paused.
A trace of complexity appeared on his face, and he shook his head and said, "No, it was Ranran who ran away secretly with the household registration book."
"She had a quarrel with her family, and then ran out and said she wanted to marry me, but I know that she wanted to get her parents' blessing."
Speaking of this, Mengdu picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, then put the empty glass heavily on the table, making a "clang" sound!
Ye Ning nodded, staring at the frustrated man in front of him without saying a word.
What he saw most in Mengdu was helplessness.
This is a competitive and indomitable Northeast man.
But he would also be overwhelmed by the huge pressure.
Of course, he is happy, at least there is a woman who can accompany him all the time and be willing to be with him.
The two chatted for a long time, and after being drunk, they became casual in their conversation.
"Old Four, I remember that it was rumored that squad leader Jiang Xue still liked you. Why did you...
No idea?"
Ye Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Jiang Xue was pretty, but she was very utilitarian.
He still remembered that when he was about to graduate from his senior year, Jiang Xue came to him alone.
She asked him a question, "What does your family do?"
Ye Ning was also puzzled at the time, but still said that his parents were farmers.
Suddenly, Jiang Xue's face was extremely disappointed.
She left without even saying hello.
Later, when he heard others say that Jiang Xue had a crush on him, Ye Ning knew what she meant at the time.
"I dare not have any ideas. Her family situation is completely different from my family, and there is no way it will work out."
Ye Ning has a lot of say on this point.
"What about now? I heard that Jiang Xue is about to return to China..."
