After a week, Du Chen and his classmates' first semester final exams are finally over. From today on, everyone can go home one after another.
"Oh, the exams are finally over! I wish we could have finished them all in one day like in high school. I guess we'd be home by now!"
Wang Yue lay on the bed and spoke to the others in the dormitory.
"That's right! That's right, I've had enough of the winter in the north. It's too cold! I want to go home! Go home and enjoy the warmth!"
Huang Guangwei interrupted and said that the winter in Beijing made him and Yu Nansheng, two southerners, feel what it was like to be very cold.
"Forget it, the cold here is a physical attack, and the cold here is a magical attack!"
Du Chen thought about the differences between the north and the south, so he teased Huang Guangwei.
"What's the meaning?"
Huang Guangwei asked Du Chen in confusion, and Yu Nansheng also looked at Du Chen and wanted to hear his explanation.
"In the north, the cold is dry and dry, and the houses are all heated, so it's not cold when you go back home. In the south, it's gloomy and cold, and it's freezing cold, seeping into your bones. The temperature at home is colder than on the street. Am I right?"
Du Chen asked Huang Guangwei and Yu Nansheng.
"Are you still listening? Have you ever been to the South?"
Huang Guangwei asked Du Chen curiously.
"Well, I've been to Guangzhou twice."
"Hey, have you been to Guangzhou? My family is from Guangzhou, and you didn't even mention you've been there."
This was the first time Huang Guangwei knew that Du Chen had been to Guangzhou.
"My dad's comrades were in Guangzhou, so I went there twice."
"Remember to come and play with me next time you go!"
Huang Guangwei gave Du Chen some advice.
"When are you planning to go home?"
Wu Zhipeng packed his luggage and asked other people in the dormitory. He was planning to leave the day after tomorrow and had already booked a train ticket.
"How about tomorrow? It's close anyway, and it only takes a little over two hours to get back by car. I can talk about it when I get up tomorrow."
Wang Yue was not in a hurry. Tianjin was only a short distance away from the capital, so it would be a while before he could return. It didn't matter when he left.
"My train is at ten-thirty tomorrow night."
This is Cao Dongliang.
"Same."
After everyone talked about it, most of them decided to leave tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
"Du Chen, what about you? Have you bought your ticket? We're traveling together."
Seeing that Du Chen didn't say anything, Liu Pinchao asked Du Chen.
"Me? I have to wait a while before I can go back. I'm not done with the repair shop yet, and I'm waiting to go back with my brother. You can go first."
Du Chen's BMW still has some parts that are not completed, and it's just one finishing touch, so Du Chen plans to wait a little longer and drive back to Yuncheng directly after the car is finished.
"Oh, now that you mention it, we haven't even gone to the repair shop you promised us! We have some free time this afternoon, so take us over to have a look!"
Bao Tongsheng remembered that Du Chen had promised them to go to the repair shop together, so he just brought it up.
"Don't go. There's nothing to do there and it's dirty. You might as well stay in the dormitory."
Du Chen felt very confused. How could he still remember this incident?
"I think you're hiding something from us!"
Everyone saw through Du Chen's evasion and started to denounce him.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. Let's go. If you want to go, go. I'll take you there after dinner, okay?"
Du Chen had no choice but to agree to a few people.
……………………
"Du Chen, is this the repair shop you come to every day? Is it a big deal?"
Eight people from dormitory 302 arrived at the door of the repair shop in two taxis. Liu Pinchao asked Du Chen in surprise. At first he thought it was just a small dirty shop, but he didn't expect it to be such a big repair shop.
"Yeah, it's quite big."
"It must be very profitable, otherwise how could it become so big!"
Yu Nansheng whispered that his family was in business, and it was quite a big business. In his impression, as long as the store was particularly large, it would generally be very profitable.
Hearing Yu Nansheng's words, Du Chen couldn't help but curl his lips. It had been two months since the opening, and not a single car had come for maintenance, let alone repairs. Driving in this remote place, Du Chen was really impressed by Li Dewen and Xiami.
There are four cars in the workshop now, a BMW E46, a BMW 5 Series, a Mazda Miata, and a previous generation Mercedes-Benz S450. The BMW and Mercedes-Benz were bought back later at a relatively reasonable price. He can make about 60,000 to 70,000 yuan from the two cars, but on average, everyone's salary is basically for nothing. Du Chen is considering quitting the job if it doesn't suit him after this year. The rent and labor costs are about 400,000 yuan a year. It would be better for him to buy a house.
"Brother Chen, you're here! Your shock absorber is back!"
Du Chen had just entered the repair shop and hadn't reacted yet when the apprentice hit him on the head. He had given Du Chen many instructions, but before he could say anything, the apprentice had exposed him.
"What shock absorber is back?"
Without waiting for Du Chen to react, Wang Yue stood in front of Du Chen in an instant, blocking the apprentice's sight, and then asked the apprentice with ill intentions.
"The BMW's suspension is back! Who are you?"
After the apprentice answered Wang Yue's question, he realized it belatedly and asked Wang Yue foolishly.
"We are your brother Chen's friends. Brother Chen wants us to see his BMW!"
As soon as Du Chen heard Wang Yue's answer, he knew that he was doomed. The greenhorn apprentice was completely deceived by Wang Yue. As expected, the other party's answer made Du Chen want to cover his face.
"I see, the car is over here, come over here! Brother Chen, the shock absorbers are back, and the only thing missing is the exhaust. Do you want to install it now?"
The apprentice led a few people towards the BMW while asking Du Chen.
"Du Chen!"
The workshop was already quite cold, and coupled with the resentful and confused shouts of the other people, Du Chen couldn't help but shiver.
"What, what happened?"
"What's going on with the BMW?"
"I bought a used car? Didn't I tell you?"
Du Chen knew he couldn't hide it any longer, so he told everyone the answer directly, and then turned the tables.
"When did you tell us? Du Chen, I treat you as a fellow villager and a brother, yet you hid it from me!"
Liu Pinchao was very resentful and felt that Du Chen had let him down.
"Didn't I tell you? Maybe I was too busy, so I forgot. Sorry!"
Du Chen apologized to them insincerely.
The people in dormitory 302 looked at each other and didn't say anything else. They should give Du Chen some face outside. They will talk about the rest after returning to the dormitory at night. They will definitely not let Du Chen have an easy time.
"Oh! So handsome!"
As soon as he arrived in front of the car, Wang Yue couldn't help but exclaimed.
What catches the eye is a cherry red BMW two-door car. The hood is also a modified version. The two well-raised ribs show the muscularity of this small car. There is also a front shovel installed on the front bumper. Boys will like it at first sight.
"Du Chen, is this your car?!"
