Spring of 1982.
Fu Xiangdong is nineteen years old this year and is in his final year of college.
After finishing his studies, he didn't want to continue studying, nor did he plan to work for any organization. Instead, he wanted to start his own business.
Thinking of my second brother in Shenzhen, he's already made a fortune. If it weren't for our parents keeping him in check, he probably wouldn't even want to get his graduation certificate.
However, he wasn't too bad. He and his close friends in the dorm teamed up to work on a computer project.
The project is almost finished and should be completed by graduation.
That would be the best gift for all of them when they graduate.
He had just hung up the phone when he learned from the call that his parents had gone on another trip.
Since the year before last, my father has loved taking my mother on trips everywhere.
This caused him to call back, and almost every time, it was his third or fourth brother who answered the phone.
The third and fourth children are both 16 years old this year and are preparing for high school. They will take the college entrance examination in two years.
However, since their parents are rarely home, they have now trained themselves to be capable of doing anything.
I estimate that even after they graduate from university, even if they are far from home, they will be able to take good care of themselves.
Fu Xiangdong sighed inwardly, preoccupied with matters at home, and didn't notice what was ahead.
Before he could react, a small, delicate figure rushed straight towards him.
Fu Xiangdong subconsciously shifted his left foot, turning himself to the side so that the figure didn't hit him squarely when it rushed over. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to explain himself no matter what.
The petite figure was supposed to have bumped into Fu Xiangdong.
However, now that Fu Xiangdong had given way, no one was there to stop her, so she naturally fell forward and took a big, flat fall.
Those classmates who had originally egged Guo Yaru on to pretend to fall into Fu Xiangdong's arms and then confess her feelings to him, now saw Guo Yaru lying on the ground, in so much pain she couldn't get up, needless to say.
Even though she could stand up now, Guo Yaru just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, cover up her embarrassment with a bamboo husk, and run home as fast as she could.
After Fu Xiangdong stepped aside, Guo Yaru fell down. However, he did not expect that she was so weak that she could not get up after such a bump.
He couldn't help but frown; leaving like this didn't feel good.
After all, no matter what, if it were an ordinary male student, he would squat down and ask if he was alright and if he needed help if he encountered such a situation.
However, what he feared most were female classmates like this.
Over the past four years, quite a few female classmates have tried to stage accidents to impress Fu Xiangdong and then strike up conversations with him.
Fu Xiangdong believes that students should prioritize their studies while at school.
He's not in a hurry to try anything romantic.
After all, he's only nineteen years old; he's still young.
Some of them were just high school students who had just been admitted to university, and they were about the same age as Fu Xiangdong!
"Are you okay?"
Fu Xiangdong tilted his head and bent down to ask the female classmate who was holding her head on the ground.
Given Guo Yaru's current state, she wouldn't dare to raise her head.
She scrambled to her feet, turned her back to Fu Xiangdong, shook her head hurriedly three times, then abandoned her classmates and ran away.
Fu Xiangdong was stunned by this sudden turn of events, then couldn't help but chuckle.
After all, this girl's way of striking up a conversation was quite interesting.
