Chapter 109
Even if my mother passed away, the father and son thought it was fate, and my father was drunk and violent. In fact, my father's job was pretty good. The city government employees worked in the construction of demolition. The family was living in a spacious three-bedroom apartment, and my father was happy to quit Chen Zhao. But the little child was becoming more and more silent, and he often went alone, went out alone to buy food and homework books. At a young age, he learned to buy clothes on the street stall and wear it.
Chen Zhaoci is like an invisible person at home. Especially when his father comes back from drunk, he will close the door of the room tightly and crouch in the corner to read books. Even so, sometimes his father will break in and beat him up.
Chen Zhaoci's grades have been neither good nor bad since childhood, but he is definitely a good child in the eyes of teachers. He studies hard, works diligently, listens to whatever the teacher says, and has become sensible since childhood. He will also help his classmates if they have any difficulties and is very meticulous. He is not a storied person, but it is also something that no one hates.
When he was seven years old, my father found another one. At first, he didn't get a marriage certificate, and the two often stumbled around at home. The woman was also a vain person who was greedy for money and was quite shameless. My father was often drunk. Sometimes when Chen Zhaoci came back from school and ran into him, the two were not ashamed. The father just scolded, "Get in!" and continued to toss and struggled, but the woman just covered herself with a quilt, and then stroked her hair charmingly. In Chen Zhaoci's eyes, it seemed like a show-off, and a lewd seduction.
When Chen Zhaoji entered junior high school, he spent very little time at home. His father didn't care. He got a marriage certificate with the woman and the woman was pregnant. For parents who loved themselves far more than their children, a dull son who was not very good left by his ex-wife, although he occasionally felt guilty in his heart, it was redundant. The father even felt that his ex-wife died early and had a good death, otherwise how could he meet such a like-minded and charming woman now?
But I never thought that my wife would share the joys and sorrows with you and save the down payment for this unit. Later, I loved to play more than my family. What I saw was this increasingly value-added house and the identity of a man working in the government. After much pillow wind, men became less and less likely to like the "sick eldest son who looked strange and weird."
But Chen Zhaoci could see all this clearly. In many alone time, he read a lot of books, read history, politics, sociology, and psychology, and economics. He may not be able to understand them all, and maybe he read too many extracurricular books, which made him only take the college entrance examination to get three Huaicheng University. But his heart was full, he wanted to be different from his father's life and wanted to achieve great things.
Huaicheng is located on the important road in western Xiangxi. He fought against Japanese devils, fought for the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and suppressed bandits after the founding of the country. There were 19 air-raid shelters left by the war. Of course, with the continuous advancement of urban economic construction, there are still those that collapsed in disrepair and collapse. There are only eight places that can be found and used now. Chen Zhaoci has seen all these in the documents brought back by his father. He was also very interested in those war legends, and he has visited every place. He has been familiar with them almost as familiar as his own backyard since he was a child. Since he was a child, he has been willing to hide secrets and caress. Those tunnels are his secret garden in this huge city, and only he belongs to him.
After entering university, Chen Zhaoci gave everyone the impression that he was no different from when he was in middle school. He was dull, shy, and kind. You would not like him much, but you would never set guard against him. In addition, years of reading made him feel more bookish. He was almost unable to get along with girls, and he didn't know how to please people. When he met someone who was interested in him, he would often just retreat. So he was single all the time.
Until his junior year, he met Zhu Xinya, a freshman in the neighboring school.
Zhu Xinya studied at a college in finance and economics, and the ratio of men and women was 1 to 9. It is said that girls in Huaicheng Finance and Economics College are much more beautiful and bold. Various social vehicles are often parked at the school gate. In contrast, the female students at Huaicheng University look somewhat dirt-like.
Chen Zhaoci didn't know how he provoked Zhu Xinya. He just worked part-time and went to Finance and Certificate several times. The girl followed him. Zhu Xinya was a completely different person from him. He had a petite but delicate figure, always wearing beautiful makeup that was inconsistent with his age, and had a mess of grades, and his friends all over the world. He smiled and said loudly, "Hahaha--" But she fell in love with this beautiful scholar at first sight and was determined to chase him.
At first, Chen Zhaoci was blindly hiding. However, she was very resilient. She delivered breakfast in the morning and walked downstairs of the boys' dormitory in the evening, which attracted countless male whistles and stared at the side. She stroked her hair, proud and arrogant, but instead whistled at Chen Zhaoci's dormitory window.
The roommates were joking, but Chen Zhaoci just frowned: "I don't like girls like this."
Chen Zhaoci thought she could calm down in a short while. But she didn't know that a month had passed and she calmed down. After all, she was a girl and could not always be embarrassed downstairs in the boy's dormitory. But the text messages and calls were always there.
In the morning, I posted: "Zhaoci, I have a high-level mathematics class again today. I really don't want to go there. I don't understand."
Posted at noon: "I only had one or two lunches, and I want to lose weight. My waist has gained half an inch."
I posted in the evening: "Zhaoci, you have to miss me. But don't think of yellow shots!" A selfie was included.
The next morning, Chen Zhaoci washed the bed sheets with a dark face.
When did the two really start? It should be that morning three months later, Zhu Xinya caught a cold and hadn't gone to class for a few days, so she didn't even have the strength to send a text message to Chen Zhaoci to harass her. So when Chen Zhaoci showed up in their dormitory with a thermos bottle, she almost shocked everyone's chin.
Zhu Xinya pointed at him weakly: "You...you..."
Chen Zhaoci blushed, but his tone was stiff: "Drink more hot water, drink porridge, and don't eat spicy food. Have a good rest."
...
Later, in the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between these two seemed to have fallen apart.
Every morning, there was an inconspicuous quiet figure downstairs of the girls’ dormitory of Finance and Economics. He began to deliver breakfast to her, pick her up and down, and went to the cafeteria to have dinner together. The two were inseparable. Most of the things they saw were Zhu Xinya, like a successful little fox, raised her high tail, holding Chen Zhaoci's hand every day, swaying across the market.
In this regard, most people think that the two have too different personalities. Although Zhu Xinya's love affair was a big hit, changing her boyfriend before was like changing clothes, either rich or noble. Can people who are used to eating big fish and meat eat cabbage every day?
