The sound of the unit door opening was like the sound of nature to Yuliang, who had been standing alone for more than an hour on the cold winter night.
This was even the first time he felt that the crackling sound produced by the rusty bearings when the unit door opened was so wonderful.
However, when he saw that the person who came out was an old man throwing away garbage, he felt that the sound was not so pleasant after all.
Finally, when Yuliang's jaw was frozen and numb, a very graceful voice came from behind him.
"Um? Are you the emperor's uncle?"
Yuliang turned around and saw the girl approaching. She was wearing a long pink down jacket and was about 1.6 meters tall. Judging from her face and figure, Yuliang believed that she was indeed a very beautiful girl.
"Uh, are you Yunmeng?" Yuliang asked tentatively.
"Yeah, that's right, just call me Li Mengmeng. Don't call me Yunmeng in real life. It sounds weird." The girl nodded and said very calmly.
"That's right, my name is Yuliang, Yu for met and Liang for good person." When facing the beautiful girl, Yuliang couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, and said in a naive manner while touching the back of his head.
The two of them just stood there stupidly for two minutes. Li Mengmeng, a girl, was too embarrassed to speak first, let alone Yu Liang. At this time, he even suspected that his mind was filled with the soy milk he didn't finish drinking in the morning.
Finally, it was Li Mengmeng who couldn't stand the cold wind anymore and spoke first: "How about... let's go eat first? I've been hungry all afternoon."
"Ah...ah, okay, let's eat. I'll call a taxi and go eat..."
Yu Liang suddenly remembered why they were standing outside stupidly.
They quickly opened the app and called a car. Neither of them knew what to say on the way, and they were silent all the way. Finally, they arrived at their destination, which was the Xiaohetang Hot Pot Restaurant, which had a good reputation in the area.
Yu Liang stood stupidly for a long time in the winter night in Harbin, feeling freezing. It was not until he entered a hot pot restaurant that he finally felt a hint of warmth.
"Ah, I'm alive, I'm alive."
Led by the waiter, the two came to the private room that Yuliang had just booked.
After ordering the dishes and waiting for them to be served, the two of them sat in the private room and fell into an awkward situation again.
"Um...do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?"
Yu Liang took out a cigarette from his arms, shook it in front of Li Mengmeng, and asked tentatively.
"Ah, go ahead and smoke. I don't care." Li Mengmeng lowered her head and muttered on her cell phone. She didn't look up at Yu Liang until he took out a cigarette and asked.
"Uncle Huang is such a wealthy man, spending money like water and giving out hundreds of thousands of dollars in benefits alone in one season. Why is he still smoking Hongtashan? I remember Hongtashan was only seven or eight yuan. This doesn't suit your status."
Li Mengmeng looked at the cigarette in Yuliang's hand and asked puzzledly.
"Oh no, I'm used to it. Besides, it's not that good anyway. Ten thousand yuan a pack is bad for your health, isn't it? It's all the same."
Yuliang took out a lighter, lit a cigarette and took a puff. Looking at the smoke coming out, he finally felt a little relaxed.
"He's really a rich man who knows how to live." Li Mengmeng covered her mouth and laughed.
…
Soon, the pot base and the ordered dishes were served.
It is said that we eat barbecue in summer and hot pot in winter. It is indeed true. A mouthful of steaming lamb dipped in the delicious sauce made with sesame paste and a variety of small ingredients, put into your mouth, and you will immediately feel that the coldness of the whole winter has been cleared away.
Slowly, as they chatted on, Yuliang discovered that Li Mengmeng was a very talkative, or rather, a very lively girl.
Gradually, the two of them were no longer as reserved as before.
"So you mean to leave during the day on the 30th? Is there anything I should be careful about when I get there? It would be embarrassing if I get caught."
Li Mengmeng asked while chewing the lettuce she had just put into her mouth.
"Just remember my name... I don't think my mom will ask you anything else."
"What do you do for a living? I have a feeling your mother will definitely talk to me about your job, and I can't just make it up."
"Emmm, just think of me as an operations manager. Anyway, my mom only knows that I'm an operations manager, and she doesn't know what operations I do. I'll leave it to you to do as you please."
Yuliang then remembered about his work. Until now, his mother always thought that he was still working diligently every day. If his mother knew that he not only did not go to work, but also stayed at home playing games every day, then the shadow of his childhood might reappear.
"So you're in operations? Does that mean you're not working in operations now? Then what exactly do you do? And what do your parents do?"
"Oh, my dad is a truck driver, and my mom works at the tax bureau, sort of like that, helping old men and women with their social security."
"That's strange. I thought your family was in business. What do you do? Why are you so rich? You're much richer than me."
According to Li Mengmeng's original idea, considering that Yuliang is only in his early twenties and treats money like dirt in the game, he must be a rich second-generation.
But from what Yuliang said, he is not a rich second generation.
"Oh, let's keep this a secret for now. It's not illegal anyway. I'll tell you when we get to know each other better. Haha."
Yuliang couldn't think of any good job suitable for a young man in his twenties who would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in two months, so he had no choice but to make an excuse.
"Wow, I didn't expect that. You'll tell me after you get familiar with each other. You're quite capable, young man." After hearing Yuliang say that, Li Mengmeng didn't ask any more questions, but looked at Yuliang with a smirk as if to say, "Oh, I understand."
"No, no, no, Mr. Meng, please don't misunderstand me... I, I didn't mean that." Yu Liang saw Li Mengmeng's smirk and immediately realized that he was misunderstood by Li Mengmeng. He quickly waved his hands to deny it.
"Oh, then I understand. Alas, it turns out that I am just a tool. As expected, none of you men are good." Upon hearing this, Li Mengmeng made a sad expression again.
"No, no, I said that's not what I meant. It's not that, it's not this, do you understand? It's just... Ah Xi!"
"Hahaha, that's enough. I won't tease you anymore. You're making me laugh to death..."
…
The two had dinner and added each other on WeChat. After Yu Liang sent Li Mengmeng home, the two basically just chatted on WeChat.
Time passed quickly, two days passed in the blink of an eye, and finally, it was the morning of New Year's Eve.
Yuliang was woken up early by a WeChat call.
"Hello?"
"What are you saying? Hurry up and pack up and go downstairs. I'm almost in the elevator. I wonder if it's New Year's Eve yet!"
