Outside the courtyard house.
Before Lin Yang could even ask himself why the Yan family was still awake at this hour, he wondered why they were still up.
Then they saw Yan Fugui and his son Yan Jiecheng, wearing overcoats, carrying oil lamps as they walked to the gate.
"What are these two doing instead of sleeping?" Lin Yang said speechlessly, holding the keys in his hand.
The next moment, the door opened, and Yan Jiecheng said cheerfully:
"Yang-ge, you're back!"
Yan Fugui, wearing small glasses, spoke with a hint of complaint but a face full of self-satisfaction:
"Yangzi, this means we have a good relationship!"
"You're still up so late at night, and you haven't come back yet!"
"I told you I was afraid you wouldn't have your keys and wouldn't be able to get back, so I insisted on waiting for you to come back before I went to sleep!"
Lin Yang thought about it and realized that Yan Jiecheng's gaze towards him that afternoon had been strange.
Today, he even calls himself Brother Yang, not Yangzi.
I guess they need something from me.
Sure enough, Yan Jiecheng looked at Lin Yang with a smile and said:
"Brother Yang, you've done a great job now, you'll definitely have a lot more social engagements in the future!"
"Anyway, I'm free right now, so you don't need to worry about the keys when you go out for business dinners at night!"
"I'll guard this gate for you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang roughly understood.
I'm afraid Yan Jiecheng sees that he has a bicycle, a radio, and a watch.
They're convinced they've made it big and want to curry favor with us.
Is opening a door for yourself considered a sign of loyalty?
But then I thought, if Yan Jiecheng wants to rely on me, that's fine too.
Every time the province had a conflict with other beasts, he personally took charge.
While it was satisfying, it was also a huge turn-off.
In any case, after a while, I will also be the glorious deputy head of the security section of the security department!
It's interesting to make beasts fight each other, by forming one group and attacking the other.
Leaving aside Yan Jiecheng, Uncle Yan Fugui alone is the easiest to win over.
As a representative of modern petty citizens who are calculating, complacent, and want to reap without sowing.
He's just a fence-sitter.
They can be bought off with just a little favor.
Although Yan Fuguiren wasn't very capable, he was still a manager, no matter what.
Hold a college-wide meeting, and if there's anything you're unhappy about, give them a little something in return.
Yan Fugui would definitely be willing to swallow his pride and say it.
Thinking of this, Lin Yang smiled and said, "I see, thank you!"
Then he took out a pack of cigarettes that he had opened at Tong Xiaodao's house from his pocket, and handed one to Yan Fugui and Yan Jiecheng, saying, "It's so cold outside, you've really gone to a lot of trouble!"
Upon seeing Hua Zi's cigarette box, Yan Fugui and his son exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
They really kept them waiting all night!
Just this one cigarette is enough for them to brag about to their colleagues and friends for ages!
Don't be fooled by the cigarettes Lin Yang has on his left and right.
Half of it was a system reward, and the other half was taken from Director Yang, Tong Daning.
Ordinary people really can't get a chance to win a cigarette.
Holding the cigarette, Yan Fugui's tone became more enthusiastic, and his eyes, hidden behind his small round glasses, narrowed into slits with laughter.
"Yangzi, you're being too kind. It was just a small favor for us!"
Yan Jiecheng, who was standing next to him, tucked a cigarette behind his ear and enthusiastically brushed the dust off Lin Yang's back seat, saying, "Brother Yang, your car is covered in dust all night. Why don't you leave it outside today and I'll wipe it clean for you tomorrow morning!"
This cigarette made him see Lin Yang's potential clearly.
Yan Jiecheng thought to himself that he had been wandering the streets for months and had never seen many people handing out cigarettes in loose form.
He only saw someone smoking cigarettes when he went to see the so-called "playboys" on the street with a friend.
The smell of the cigarette made him have all sorts of fantasies, but unfortunately, that playboy was really stingy.
He smokes Huazi cigarettes, but the smoke he disperses is actually from Peony cigarettes.
Yan Fugui didn't care at all when he saw his son's sycophantic behavior.
Because he's never smoked cigarettes!
I've only ever seen the principal and department heads smoke during school meetings.
With this cigarette, there's no need to say that Yan Jiecheng wiped Lin Yang's bicycle.
He wouldn't even object to Yan Jiecheng wiping Lin Yang's feet.
As for what kind of scholarly integrity?
"Get lost!" Old Yan thought to himself, feeling a surge of joy at the thought of carrying a cigarette to school tomorrow and showing off to his colleagues.
Lin Yang really didn't expect that Yan Jiecheng was such a sycophant.
However, he was actually a little reluctant to leave his new bicycle outside.
It wasn't that we were afraid of being robbed, but rather that there were too many young boys in the courtyard.
These kids are all incredibly daring. If any of them scratch my new car, I'll be devastated.
Lin Yang decisively rejected Yan Jiecheng.
As he pushed the cart into the courtyard, Yan Fugui and his son Yan Jiecheng walked into the house with smiles on their faces.
As soon as he entered the house, Yan Jiecheng said smugly, "See, Dad? You were right to listen to me!"
"Lin Yang is quite generous; he casually gave us two cigarettes," Yan Fugui said, sniffing the cigarettes and adding with satisfaction, "This tastes really different!"
“Yeah!” Yan Jiecheng imitated Yan Fugui, sniffing the object while imagining how he would show it off to his friends tomorrow.
But the next moment he heard Yan Fugui say to him, "Jiecheng, you can't even appreciate this good cigarette, give it to Dad!"
As he spoke, he reached out to take the cigarette from Yan Jiecheng's hand.
Yan Jiecheng reacted quickly, immediately placing Hua Zi behind his back and saying warily, "Dad, Yang-ge said this is a gift for me! Don't try to take it!"
"Look at how stingy you are!" Yan Fugui frowned. "It's a waste to give you such good cigarettes."
"I don't care, I'm not giving it to you!" Yan Jiecheng, with his hands behind his back, shoved the cigarette into his pocket, covering it tightly with his hand, and said warily to Yan Fugui, "It was my idea that allowed you to get the cigarette, Dad, you can't do this!"
"Tch, you're such a loser, look at how stingy you are!" Yan Fugui thought that if it weren't for Yan Jiecheng, he really wouldn't have been able to get that cigarette, so he gave up and stopped trying to get his hands on it.
Seeing that his father had given up, Yan Jiecheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still turned his back to Yan Fugui, carefully hid the cigarette, and then lay down on the kang to sleep.
............
Early the next morning.
After washing up at home, Lin Yang pushed his bicycle and prepared to go out.
However, as soon as he opened the door...
Then they saw Yan Jiecheng holding a cigarette, standing in the middle courtyard with the three Liu family boys and the other half-grown boys from other families, showing off.
Upon seeing Lin Yang push the cart out, the boys all abandoned Yan Jiecheng.
One by one, carrying cloths of unknown color, they all shouted:
"Brother Yang, Brother Yang, let me help you wash your car!"
"Brother Yang, I'll open the door for you at night from now on!"
"Brother Yang, Brother Yang, I clean all the windows in my house. I'm the best at cleaning things. I'll help you clean your bicycle!"
“.......
