The eighteenth day of the eighth month.

The other two brothers in dormitory 519 finally rushed back from other places.

On this day, Chen Fan put aside his company affairs and used the day to welcome the arrival of his good brother.

Since Han Xu, the fifth roommate in the dormitory, went to a certain university in the north to study for research, he actually put on square-framed glasses, became gentle and refined, and his temperament has changed a lot.

In Luo Wenjie's words, this is called a gentleman who is a scumbag.

The third brother, Sun Hao, came all the way from Pudong specially, and this time he brought his girlfriend with him.

The few people who participated in 519 finally got to know the representative of the best girlfriend in the legend who they had only heard of but never met during their four years of study.

The lunch reception was held at Chen Fan's home, and all the members of 519 were present except Wu Di.

Chen Fan explained to Sun Hao and Han Xu that Wu Di was now a civil servant and it was not easy for him to ask for leave, so he would definitely attend the formal reception in the evening. The two smiled and said it was no big deal.

In the kitchen, Su Ruochu, Song Linlin, and Sun Hao's girlfriend Xiaoyu, three girls were chatting and laughing while preparing dishes.

As a chef, Chen Fan was responsible for cooking.

In the living room, Ma Xiaoshuai and his friends were eating melon seeds and chatting.

"Brother Hao, I haven't seen you for half a year. Why do I feel like you have lost so much weight?" Ma Xiaoshuai asked with a smile.

Luo Wenjie joked, "Do I even need to ask? I've been in a long-distance relationship with my girlfriend for four years, and now we can finally live together. I have to exercise day and night... But Hao, you have to be moderate..."

Sun Hao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'll control you."

"I'm just tired after work."

Looking at the three roommates in front of him, Sun Hao said with emotion: "Brothers, now think about it, the time when we were in school was really a good time. We were carefree and could do whatever we wanted..."

"After graduating and entering society, I finally understood how cruel society is."

"I've changed at least four jobs in Pudong in the past six months, but I didn't earn a penny in the first two jobs after working for two months..."

Ma Xiaoshuai asked curiously, "What's going on?"

Sun Hao shook his head: "Oh, don't mention it. These are all experiences and tears."

“It was only after I went to Pudong that I understood what the class gap among humans is.”

"Brothers, in this city, those who are rich are really rich, and those who are poor are really poor..."

Brother Jie spat out a melon seed shell and said, "You said something nonsense."

Sun Hao said with emotion, "Before I went there, I was full of ambition and confidence, and wanted to start a new stage of my life in Pudong."

"After I went there, I realized that surviving in the city was a problem."

He glanced at Han Xu next to him and said, "Old Han is still good. He passed the postgraduate entrance examination. To be honest, I regret it. I should have prepared for another year."

Ma Xiaoshuai smiled and joked, "See? This is a typical person who is sullen and has a story. It's okay if you don't tell me now. When we drink tonight, your parents will ask you to explain it."

At this time Chen Fan, wearing an apron, brought out a plate of food from the kitchen. When he saw the posture of these four people, he immediately interrupted and cursed.

"Look at the four of you, just like in the old days. You sit on the sofa without moving your butts, waiting to be fed."

The four of them chuckled.

"There's nothing we can do. Who says you're the best cook among us?"

Ma Xiaoshuai glanced towards the kitchen.

"Why did you come out?"

Chen Fan glanced at the table and said, "Five dishes are almost done. The three beauties are preparing to fry one each."

"Don't just stand there, take a seat."

A few people sat down with smiles on their faces, and Chen Fan brought out a box of cans from the side.

"Because there is a formal reception tonight, let's just deal with it briefly at noon today. Let's make it clear that each person can only drink three cans of beer. Don't drink too much and affect the dinner tonight."

The 꺶 family smiled and had no opinion.

"Come on. Since you're having dinner at my house today, I'll make myself available and bring one first."

"Let's raise a toast together to celebrate the return of our good roommates Haozi and Laohan."

The 꺶 family stood up and bumped into each other with a smile.

Chen Fan put down the can and said with a smile: "Try it. You won't have the chance to taste my cooking skills before."

Ma Xiaoshuai smiled and said to Sun Hao, "It's still for your face. When I asked this guy to cook a dish, he acted like he was worth two and a half million and refused to do it even though I paid him."

Sun Hao looked around the living room with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, did you buy this house?"

"Yes." Chen Fan nodded.

"Oh, I really envy you."

Brother Jie next to him joked: "Among the brothers in our dormitory, I guess only Brother Fan has bought a house."

"And I bought the house when I was in school."

Ma Xiaoshuai complained: "Don't compare yourself to this guy, he's a pervert."

Chen Fan smiled and threw a flower over, "You're the pervert."

Sun Hao's envy came from the bottom of his heart.

"Hey, guys, you don't know how expensive the housing prices in Pudong are. Not many people can afford to buy a house."

"The rent is horribly expensive. The few pennies I earn every month end up going to the landlord."

Chen Fan knocked on the table with a smile.

"Oh, you're complaining again. Drink first, and then you can tell stories later."

The group didn't go anywhere the whole afternoon and stayed at Chen Fan's house. After dinner, the men gathered in the living room to play cards, while the three women sat in front of the TV and ate fruit.

It was not until the evening that the 꺶 family set out by car.

Sun Hao and his girlfriend were sitting in Chen Fan's car, and they were sitting in the back seat, curiously touching the car's interior.

"Old Chen, I remember you were driving a land cruiser before."

Chen Fan explained with a smile while driving: "That car had an accident, and now I'm using it as a company car."

"This car was just replaced last month."

Xiaoyu whispered to Sun Hao: "What kind of car is this?"

“Land Rover wins!”

Sun Hao asked: "This car is not cheap, right? It must be over a hundred."

Chen Fan smiled and didn't explain: "About the same."

"well."

Sun Hao sighed deeply, and his expression seemed a little shocked for a moment.

He was not struck by Chen Fan, because he had always admired Chen Fan's wealth, as he had been making money since he was in school.

What Sun Hao didn't expect was that in addition to Chen Fan and Ma Xiaoshuai, even Jie Ge and Wu Di bought cars.

Even if Wu Di bought a used car, it is still a car.

How about yourself?

My girlfriend and I are still struggling to work and pay the monthly rent in Pudong.

It's only been half a year since I graduated, has the gap between our families widened?

Thinking about it now, he really has some doubts. Was it right or wrong to choose to go to Pudong after graduation?

Would it be better if we stayed in the sea of ​​clouds?

Arriving at the dining room, as soon as he entered the hall, Sun Hao was shocked by the magnificent decoration.

"This... This has to be at least four stars, right?"

"Five-star. The best hotel in Yunhai."

Sun Hao smiled bitterly: "It's too luxurious to eat here. A meal here is so expensive."

Brother Jie came over and held Sun Hao's shoulders.

"You don't have to worry about that. Brother Fan said he'll treat us tonight, so don't be polite to him, just eat whatever you want."
