Chapter 305
It’s really late. It seems like we were still discussing where to travel and starting to franchise yesterday.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
During this year, students came and went in batches, and Qin Xiang and his classmates also went from being seniors to graduates.
It was now the end of June in 1989. Qin Xiang was about to graduate.
The school arranged a graduation ceremony. After the ceremony, students from different majors put on bachelor's gowns and bachelor's caps and took photos.
Qin Xiang specially brought two cameras so that the professional students could take as many photos as they wanted.
The classmates all cheered, "Boss Qin is really generous."
Qin Xiang laughed. "Go ahead and take as many pictures as you want today. You'll have plenty to hand in. If you run out, go ask Mr. Meng for more."
Everyone looked at the tall and handsome man standing under the shade of the tree and couldn't help laughing.
They were some distance away, so Meng Huaiqing didn't hear what they said. He just smiled gently at Qin Xiang when she looked over.
Several women cried out, "Boss Qin, where can you find such a good man? It's been several years, you should be an old married couple, why are you still so clingy?"
Qin Xiang smiled back at Meng Huaiqing, then said, "What do you mean by old married couple? We're not even newlyweds yet. Everyone in the capital needs to come to our wedding on October 1st."
According to Meng Huaiqing, he wanted to get married on the day she graduated, but it was too hot to get married in the summer. It would be very hot whether she wore Xiuhe clothes or wedding dresses. Qin Xiang firmly disagreed. Finally, Meng Huaiqing compromised and chose October 1st. At that time, relatives and friends could take a vacation and attend their wedding.
"Of course we have to go. We'll all go. Just prepare the banquet and it'll be fine."
Another student from the capital laughed and said, "That's right, set it up. I grew up in the capital and have never been to the Capital Restaurant. Boss Qin has given us this opportunity. It would be a shame to the delicious food there if we don't go."
The others also laughed.
Some classmates from other places were envious and said, "It's a pity that we have to go back by then and won't be able to attend the wedding. We don't know when we will get together again."
Qin Xiang felt emotional after hearing this and said quickly, "In that case, let's find a place to get together tonight. I'll be the host."
His ostentatious appearance made the others laugh.
Not far away, Li Minghui watched them talking and opened his mouth but didn't say anything to stop them.
Professor Sun looked at them and smiled, "It's great to be young."
Li Minghui was speechless. Having worked as a counselor for the past few years, he didn't have a very good relationship with Professor Sun, so he was worried that Professor Sun would have more to say after he responded to this question.
But Li Minghui didn't expect that even if he didn't say anything, Professor Sun would still continue to talk, "Xiao Li, you're not that old, why are you living more conservative than us old guys? This is not good."
After saying that, Professor Sun walked towards the students with a smile, "Hey, girls and boys, let's take a photo together."
Everyone became happy and called Professor Tan and others over to take photos together.
Li Minghui stood there in a dilemma, feeling a little embarrassed that no one invited him.
At this time, the squad leader came over with a smile and said, "Instructor, let's take a photo together. It's not a group photo, so there's no need to be so serious."
Li Minghui blushed slightly and nodded seriously, "Okay."
Since it was not a formal group photo, everyone was relaxed and had all kinds of styles.
After taking this photo, Qin Xiang took photos with Professor Sun, Professor Tan and others, and then went to take photos with people in their respective dormitories.
Dingxiang has been studying abroad for a year and a half. According to the course, she will have to stay abroad for another year and a half before she can come back. It is hard to say whether they can still get together by then.
The five of them gathered together to take photos, and then took photos of their friends, individual photos, group photos, photos in front of the library, and photos by the lake, wanting to capture every corner of the school.
Compared with Qin Xiang and the others' excitement and reluctance, Guan Yuping seemed much more silent and had been very silent for the past year.
At the beginning, people in the dormitory would try to persuade her, but after a long time, it stopped working.
There is a saying that goes, you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
Although Guan Yuping was not pretending to be asleep, she was deceiving herself. No one had the time to persuade her to go every day, and since she didn't listen, they just stopped talking.
If someone is willing to be a romantic, no one else can stop him.
It was already late after taking the photos, so Meng Huaiqing had already gone back to have people work overtime to develop the photos.
Qin Xiang had already booked a banquet and had a bus driven over to take all the students majoring in fashion design.
It's summer now and the weather is very hot. The hotel is of high standard and has installed several air conditioners in the lobby and the fans are also on.
As soon as everyone entered, they couldn't help but sigh, "It has to be a big restaurant. Going to a small restaurant to eat a meal makes you sweat all over."
This was a gathering for the whole class, and both Professor Sun and Li Minghui were invited.
Li Minghui couldn't help but glance at Qin Xiang.
This is the girl he has disliked since he started teaching this class.
He always felt that Qin Xiang's existence broke the traditional image of women and was different from what he believed in. He still couldn't agree with some of the things Qin Xiang did, but he couldn't deny that this girl had brought countless production opportunities to the whole class and even the entire design major.
He also knew that many of the students who graduated in the past had gone to work at Qin Xiang's factory. He had contacted them privately, and they all had good jobs. Furthermore, several of his current classmates had already signed employment agreements with Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang offers high salaries and good benefits. It is no longer possible to get in casually. Those who can get in have all been inspected by Qin Xiang.
"Counselor, let me toast you a glass. Thank you for your help over the years."
Li Minghui came back to his senses and looked at the girl in front of him in surprise. He smiled and said quickly, "It's not really help, it's all my responsibility."
Qin Xiang nodded, took a sip of wine and went to drink with the others.
Li Minghui called her and waited for Qin Xiang to turn around before saying, "Classmate Qin Xiang, I apologize for my previous prejudice against you."
"It doesn't matter." Qin Xiang smiled, "The instructor eats and drinks well."
Li Minghui was stunned for a moment, and Professor Sun next to him said, "Alright, Qin Xiang doesn't care, so don't worry about it. She has a lot of things to think about, and she doesn't care about your trivial matters at all."
But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable Li Minghui felt.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. About thirty people sat at two large round tables, and the eating and drinking was particularly lively.
During the dinner, Professor Sun was in high spirits and sang a Peking opera piece for everyone, which drew applause from everyone.
After a while, a student from the interior design major came over. Since some of the professors were the same across several majors, and the students knew each other, the atmosphere became even more lively. Everyone started to make a fuss and asked the usually serious professors to perform.
With Professor Sun taking the lead, other professors also changed their previous image and began to show their talents.
After we finish singing, you come on stage, and the whole hall is bustling with activity.
However, no matter how lively the dinner party is, it will eventually come to an end. Tomorrow, after receiving the graduation certificates and photos, everyone will go their separate ways.
There are still many people who stay in the capital, but it will not be so easy to get together like this in the future.
So everyone cherishes the last time they spend together.
But, the music ended and people dispersed, which is a common thing. By the end of the banquet, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
Qin Xiang will not go home tonight, but will spend her last night at school with her roommates.
Mingchuanxiu was admitted to Professor Sun's graduate program, but Meilin failed. Her family wanted her to return to her hometown in the provincial capital, but she didn't want to go back. In the end, she found a way to stay in the capital and became a cadre.
Zhao Wenna has fulfilled her promise and signed an employment contract with Qin Xiang.
If you think carefully, except Dingxiang, everyone else can still stay in the capital.
Back in the dormitory, the graduating seniors from other dormitories were still partying.
The people in their dormitory were quieter. Even though they knew they would have a chance to get together again in the future, they still couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave.
College life lasts for four years, which is their best time. During the best time, they have become better people today because of each other's company.
Qin Xiang opened the box and said, "Come, have a drink."
It is not convenient to drink in the dormitory. What she brought was soda, which was packed in a popsicle box with a thermal blanket inside. When you opened it, the soda was still cool, and it was comfortable to drink in the summer.
Meilin sighed, "You're the one who knows how to enjoy life the most. When we have time, we'll have to go to your place to improve our food. Please don't chase us away."
Qin Xiang took a bottle and handed it to Guan Yuping, saying to her, "Okay, come anytime."
Ming Chuanxiu beside her laughed, "You have to find her. She's a big boss and she's waiting for you at home every day."
"You're such a bore! This is just a joke. I'd make sure she's home before I go. I'm still thinking about the cooking skills of her chefs." Meilin sighed, "Isn't that right, Boss Qin?"
Qin Xiang nodded and said, "Boss Qin agreed. If you want to eat, you can go tomorrow."
Meilin shook her head again, "Forget about tomorrow. I don't know how long it will take to digest all the food I ate today."
Ming Chuanxiu said, "Come on, let's have a toast to tomorrow."
Several people gathered together and looked at Guan Yuping who was in a daze. "Yuping, hurry up. If you want to be Lin Daiyu, don't do it now. Leave it for tomorrow. Tonight we will just be a bunch of lunatics."
Guan Yuping looked at them and smiled, "Okay."
The soda bottles banged together, making a tinkling sound. Qin Xiang drank half a bottle and felt refreshed.
Guan Yuping gulped down the drink, and after a long while, he said to Qin Xiang, "Qin Xiang, are we still friends?"
friend?
Qin Xiang turned to look at her, "That's up to you. But I don't want a love-brained friend."
Guan Yuping was stunned.
Qin Xiang had explained to them what love brain is a long time ago. In the past four years, Qin Xiang had given them lessons more than once and a half.
The people in the dormitory were so independent in their thinking and so strong in their characters that even Dingxiang, who was the weakest and most timid at the beginning, stood up boldly and went out of the country to see the outside world.
These are the changes that Qin Xiang brought to them.
Guan Yuping couldn't help but wonder, is she really a love-brained person?
She herself doesn't know.
The noise lasted until midnight, until the dormitory manager couldn't help but go to each dormitory to appease them, and then the noise stopped.
In just a few hours it will be daybreak again and a new day will begin.
It was also the day they left school.
Meng Huaiqing came to pick up Qin Xiang and brought the photos with him.
A large stack of photos was distributed, and everyone went to collect their diplomas and graduation photos taken by the school. Then everyone was about to leave the school.
Qin Xiang stood outside the school gate, looking at the gate of Tsinghua University, and said softly, "Hello, Tsinghua University, goodbye."
She, Qin Xiang, graduated from university.
