Early in the morning, Du Chen woke up from his bed and stretched hard. Although there were curtains between them, the whole room was still brightly illuminated by the sunlight.
"ah!"
Du Chen yawned loudly and stretched again. He felt that it was more comfortable to lie on his bed. He liked this kind of light-transmitting curtains and did not like the kind that did not let any light in. Once the curtains were drawn, the whole room was pitch black. He thought the whole room was too depressing.
"Du Chen, get up quickly! You're going to be late for work!"
Mother, Ms. Ren Surong, knocked on Du Chen's door, reminding him to get up quickly.
"I know, Mom!"
Du Chen was still lying lazily on the bed. Today was his first day at work, but Du Chen was not in a hurry at all. He also wanted to learn from the post-2000s generation, not to clean up the workplace, but to change his identity from a late student to a late teacher.
"Hurry up and get up. Do you want to be late on your first day at work?"
Comrade Lao Du opened the door and leaned half of his body in to remind Du Chen again.
"Got it, Dad, right away!"
Du Chen saw that Comrade Lao Du couldn't wait any longer, so he could only slowly get up, put on his clothes, go to the bathroom to wash up, and then come to the living room.
"Hurry up and eat. Look at you, you're so slow. How can you teach the kids?"
Comrade Lao Du felt very angry when he saw the spineless Du Chen. How come he became more and more useless as he grew older? He looked so decadent and didn't look like a young man at all.
"oh!"
Facing Comrade Lao Du, Du Chen is not at all intimidated. Now that he is an adult, and is about to graduate from university and has started working, Du Chen believes that he no longer needs to be afraid of Lao Du's armed belt.
“Bang!”
The beautiful Ms. Ren Surong did not hesitate at all and slapped Du Chen on the back.
"You better be serious! You're going to be a teacher soon, so don't mislead the students!"
Facing his mother, Du Chen smiled ingratiatingly, then picked up the bowl and ate noodles obediently. Today's breakfast was very good, made with Ms. Ren Surong's signature skill, Lao Yuncheng hand-rolled noodles.
"Second brother, I haven't asked you properly yet, what are your plans for the future?"
Comrade Lao Du was also holding a bowl and slurping his hand-rolled noodles, but it did not affect his questioning at all.
“Huff…”
Du Chen took two big sips of noodles before answering Comrade Lao Du.
"My ideal is to be a rice bug!"
Du Chen was very satisfied with his answer.
"Rice bug?"
Comrade Lao Du immediately understood what Du Chen meant. Isn't it just the fat, tender and white rice bugs twisted in the rice jar?
Comrade Lao Du immediately felt his hands itching, so he reached for his waist, habitually wanting to pull out his belt, but found nothing. He was now wearing sweatpants and had not worn a belt for a long time.
Du Chen had been staring at Comrade Lao Du for a long time. Seeing Comrade Lao Du's hand reaching for his waist, he knew what Comrade Lao Du was thinking. He quickly shoveled the remaining noodles in the bowl into his mouth, then quickly stood up and ran towards the door.
"Mom and Dad, I'm full, I'm going to work!"
Du Chen went downstairs, twirling his car keys in his fingers as he walked to his BMW M3. Initially, he'd wondered if driving a sports car to school would be a bad influence, but wasn't he pursuing a clear mind and happiness right now? So, Du Chen decided to drive his beloved sports car to school and work.
Du Chen was in a good mood along the way. He lowered the window and enjoyed the breeze as he quickly arrived at his alma mater. The school gate was open, so Du Chen found an open space and parked the car.
Du Chen had already reported to school a few days ago. He would directly take the third-grade Chinese course. When he arrived at the office, Du Chen first greeted his former class teacher.
"Good morning, teacher!"
Looking at Old Wu in front of him, who was obviously much older, Du Chen greeted him respectfully.
"Haha, Du Chen, good things for you too. In the blink of an eye, you've graduated and become a teacher!"
Teacher Wu looked at the tall and handsome Du Chen in front of him and sighed. The little kid in front of him back then has now become a glorious people's teacher.
"Well, teacher, are you feeling well?"
Du Chen asked about Old Wu's health with concern.
"It's okay, I can eat and sleep, no problem!"
Faced with Du Chen's concern, Old Wu was naturally very happy. She still remembered helping Du Chen pick up the mail from the mailroom, remembering how happy she was for Du Chen's article publication, and remembering the first time Du Chen had a fight with other students and called the police. Everything seemed to have happened just yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, Du Chen had become her colleague and worked in the same office with her.
"Teacher, are you free at noon? I'll treat you to a meal!"
Du Chen asked for Teacher Wu's opinion.
"Teacher, let me treat you to a meal! It's your first day at work, so this is your welcome dinner!"
Old Wu said this happily. She felt very proud to see her former students become successful.
"Teacher, let me treat you. I transferred to another school in such a hurry that I didn't even say hello to you. Let's just treat this as a thank you banquet for all the care you gave me!"
Du Chen was naturally embarrassed to let Old Wu treat him, so he made an excuse. However, the transfer to another school that year did not go as he wished. He had originally planned to stay in school until he graduated from elementary school, but he went straight to junior high school without finishing elementary school, which made his childhood incomplete.
"Okay, okay, then you treat me today and the teacher treats you tomorrow!"
Teacher Wu still had a smile on his face, and was as amiable as when he was teaching Du Chen's class.
