Chen Zhu didn't even know why these people were standing outside.
He had just been reading a book with great concentration. After the car stopped, he leaned out and stared at each other with everyone.
It's really embarrassing.
After a while, Chen Zhu walked over and greeted each one: "Teacher Zheng, Chairman Zhao, Chairman Wen, Du Bu, Minister Shang, Minister Tao..."
"Forehead……"
Zheng Ju and Chen Zhu were familiar with each other, and they murmured at the "walking villa": "Your car?"
"No, no."
Chen Zhu quickly denied it: "I borrowed my friend's car."
"Oh~"
Everyone nodded, this is common sense.
How could a college student own such an expensive luxury car?
But some people don't quite believe it. Chen Zhu usually doesn't like to be in the limelight in school. It's hard to guarantee that he didn't say this on purpose just to keep a low profile.
"I'm sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road, why are you all outside?"
Chen Zhu specially explained to Zheng Ju and the seniors why he was late.
His humble attitude remained the same as before, and he even greeted Wen Quan politely.
"It doesn't matter."
Zheng Ju said nonchalantly: "We sat in the box for a long time, so we came out to chat for a while. Unexpectedly..."
As Zheng Ju was talking, he suddenly stopped and looked past Chen Zhu and behind him.
Chen Zhu turned his head in confusion and saw Ma Haijun walking over with a copy of "On Monetary Economics" in his hand.
Chen Zhu suddenly realized that he was in a daze when he got out of the car just now and forgot to bring the review book with him.
"Mr. Chen, your book."
Ma Haijun half-bent, stretched out his hands and handed it over.
As Wang Youqing said, he really knew the basic etiquette of being a driver.
"Thanks."
Chen Zhu felt that this was a very ordinary and trivial matter. If he lost something, someone else would bring it to him. It was reasonable and reasonable.
But the students around him looked at Ma Haijun's respectful look.
Everyone exchanged clear eyes with each other, and there was a sense of wisdom that could see through other people's lies.
Sure enough, it was Chen Zhu's driver, but he didn't want to admit it.
Chen Zhu was very sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment, and he immediately felt that these classmates were making clever (silly) inferences.
"Depend on!"
Chen Zhu doesn't want to give everyone the impression of "driving a luxury car to college", which is very inconsistent with his usual style of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
But in front of this Mercedes-Benz S600, Chen Zhu felt that he couldn't explain clearly, so he said to Zheng Ju: "Teacher Zheng, let's go back to the box first?"
"Can!"
Zheng Ju immediately agreed and said exaggeratedly: "My legs are sore after standing for so long."
So, Zheng Ju patted Chen Zhu's shoulder in a friendly manner and motioned for the two of them to go back together.
Du Xiu and others from the Publicity and Adjustment Department also followed. Under the keen gaze of students from other departments, the Publicity and Adjustment Department felt an inexplicable "highlight" from top to bottom.
Maybe he has been a little transparent person in the student union for too long in the past, and now he is getting a little attention.
No matter what the reason was, my heart was pounding against my chest.
What an unheard of experience!
"Is this what is called [one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven]?"
Bian Xiaoliu raised his eyes and looked brightly at Chen Zhu, who was walking in the front, arm-in-arm with Zheng Ju.
"Haha~"
Bian Xiaoliu suddenly understood why men have a desire to "make contributions".
Because this not only allows you to live a better life, but also allows your relatives and friends around you to share this aura.
Guangzong Yaozu, Jinyi never travels at night.
"If I were Chen Zhu's girlfriend, they don't know how much they would envy me..."
Bian Xiaoliu thought subconsciously.
That way, I won't be pretending to be calm and walking among the crowd.
Instead, they held Chen's arm, held their heads high, and enjoyed the shock of the 3 million luxury car together.
"Teacher Zheng..."
A sudden cry interrupted Bian Xiaoliu's fantasy.
After being abruptly pulled back to reality, Bian Xiaoliu turned his head and glanced angrily at Chen Zhu, who was actually very close to him but actually far away.
It turned out to be Zhao Chen, the president of the student union, and he didn't realize that he had offended a vain girl.
Zhao Chen came over and asked Zheng Ju for instructions: "I just discussed it with Shang Dongling and Tao Li. Since everyone is having a departmental year-end dinner, let's just get together with the three departments. This can also save some money."
Having said this, Zhao Chen glanced at Chen Zhu, then quickly changed his gaze and said with a smile: "We are all a family anyway, we shouldn't be separated from each other."
"At this time, there is no distinction between us."
Liu Qiming from the Propaganda Department sighed inwardly.
Usually the Publicity Department is at the bottom of the hierarchy of all departments, and is the last to receive any benefits.
At that time, why didn't you say that a family does not distinguish between each other?
Now I see that Lao Liu is awesome, he has a driver accompanying him, and you are facing graduation, so you don’t want to miss any opportunity for in-depth communication.
Just as Liu Qiming thought, Zhao Chen will graduate from his bachelor's degree next semester.
Although he can basically determine his future position, there is a high probability that he will be a transfer student directly from a certain province.
However, for someone like Chen Zhu who shined so brightly in school, his achievements after graduation are probably unimaginable. This is definitely a strong network of connections.
Zhao Chen, like many others, had some uncertainties about the present and future of "Learning Network" before, so he and Chen Zhu only stayed on a superficial level.
But when he saw the "3 million" Mercedes-Benz S600, Zhao Chen knew that he was totally wrong.
It seems that Chen Zhu may have accumulated huge wealth.
Although he doesn’t know the reason, the fact that he can have meals with School Luo and School Xu is proof of this, isn’t it?
Zhao Chen thought about it based on recent events, and the logic became self-consistent in an instant.
Even though Zhao Chen is the chairman of the student union, the chance of meeting the school leaders is almost zero. If he has any situation, he must first discuss it with the teachers of the Youth League Committee.
So Zhao Chen almost didn't hesitate and immediately persuaded Shang Dongling and Tao Li to have a dinner together among the three departments.
Shang Dongling and Tao Li are also in shock. Power and wealth can be said to be the best aphrodisiacs.
When the driver opened the door, Chen Zhu slowly walked out of the car. The flickering light in the night, like a stage play's spotlight, flashed across his deep and peaceful face.
At that moment, the description of the "young and handsome CEO" in the novel seemed to materialize.
Therefore, Zhao Chen made this request, and the two female ministers immediately agreed.
Of course, Zhao Chen still found an official reason for "saving some money", which at least didn't sound that purposeful.
But no one is a fool, even Liu Qiming could see what Zhao Chen was thinking.
Zheng Ju hesitated for a moment. It didn't matter to him that the three departments of the student union had a year-end dinner together, but it depended on Chen Zhu's attitude. After all, Zhao Chen was also a drunkard and didn't care about drinking.
"Chen Zhu, what do you think?"
Zheng Ju asked Chen Zhu.
How could Chen Zhu not know what was going on?
It was completely a misunderstanding caused by an S600.
Since everyone is here, it's okay, so I don't have to clarify them one by one.
"I think it's pretty good."
Chen Zhu was much more familiar with this kind of official talk than Zhao Chen, and could be said to have picked it up easily.
“The three departments getting together for a year-end dinner is not only a delicious meal, but also a way to enhance mutual understanding, strengthen team cohesion, and lay the foundation for the next year’s student union work.”
Chen Zhu said with a smile.
"That's okay..."
Zheng Ju is actually okay. He has more contact with Chen Zhu and knows that he can write beautiful articles.
It is not surprising that someone who can write that kind of article would say these things.
But Zhao Chen's face looked a little strange. Chen Zhu gave him a feeling of being both official and businesslike.
…
Originally, the publicity department only booked a small private room in the hotel, and it was estimated that a meal for a few people would only cost about 300 yuan.
Nowadays, a large number of people are rushing in, and there is a business worth 2,000 yuan, so the boss is very polite and clears out a large private room that can accommodate four tables.
Normally, the arrangement should be like this, with one desk for the secretariat, one desk for the liaison department, and one desk for the publicity department.
Then the president, vice president of the student union, ministers of various ministries and the first deputy minister accompanied Zheng Ju and sat alone at the main table in the middle.
What is a "first deputy minister"? It's the kind of person who has a high probability of taking over. For example, in the Publicity and Communication Department, it's Ai Wentao.
As for Chen Zhu, he originally just wanted to be an ordinary freshman officer and hang out with acquaintances from the Publicity Department.
But, I can’t help myself!
Zheng Ju came over and pulled Chen Zhu up, about to sit on the main table.
"No, no, no, Teacher Zheng, it's fine for me to be here."
Chen stood next to Liu Qiming, waved his hand and said.
"Don't."
Zhao Chen also came over to invite: "I have some questions, and I would like to hear your opinion as a top student in Lingnan College."
"What talent do I have?"
Chen Zhu quickly said modestly: "Even if I have a little superficial opinion, I still get the insights from listening to Chairman Zhao's speeches often."
"What I said is all nonsense and has no nutrition at all."
Zhao Chen also responded with a compliment: "Entrepreneurial types like you are the ones who are practical."
A few people were pushing around here, holding their buttocks in place, causing Liu Qiming to stagger around.
He was like a roly-poly, being tossed around carelessly.
"Zhao Chen, you're a bastard!"
Da Liu had a reserved smile on his face, but he was actually scolding in his heart: "I am also a top student in Lingyuan, why don't you come and ask my opinion?"
After tugging on it for a while, Zheng Ju suddenly straightened his face and showed the majesty of a teacher.
"Sit over and sit over."
Zheng Ju said "toughly": "I originally had something to tell you."
"That……"
Chen Zhu could only stand up.
But after taking a look at the main table, he immediately sat down again: "The main table is too crowded, so let's do this. After a while, I will bring a drink and go over to toast Teacher Zheng and the seniors, and listen to Teacher Zheng's instructions."
Chen Zhu, this is really true. After all, in addition to Zheng Ju, Zhao Chen and Wen Quan, there are also chief and deputy ministers of three departments.
The main table was even more crowded than the other tables, so there was barely enough room to sit down.
"It seems a bit crowded."
Zheng Ju nodded slightly: "How about...please ask Geng Yang from the Secretariat to give in?"
Zheng Ju was embarrassed to tell Wen Quan to go away, after all, she was a girl, but he was not polite to Geng Yang.
Who told you to hit all the hard workers who take buses and subways just now?
Zhao Chen was slightly startled and immediately said, "I think it will work."
After saying that, Zhao Chen immediately went over to make arrangements.
"Why!"
Chen Zhu thought to himself, how could this be possible? People were already sitting down, but they drove him away again. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
Just as Chen Zhu was about to stop him, Zheng Ju stopped him with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay."
Liu Qiming also took the opportunity to come over and whispered: "You didn't come just now, Geng Yang was saying bad things about you."
"oh……"
Chen Zhuo's eyes moved, and his movement to stop him was delayed for a moment.
On Geng Yang's side, Zhao Chen had already walked over, leaned over and said something in his ear.
Geng Yang's face was startled at first, as if he had been frozen for an instant, and his expression slowly stiffened.
He raised his head and glanced at Zheng Ju and Chen Zhu.
But these two people were chatting, and it seemed that chasing someone away was as easy for them as brushing away mosquitoes.
Immediately, Geng Yang seemed to be thrown into magma from the ice. He blushed and said a few words to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen shook his head and seemed not to agree.
Finally, Geng Yang suppressed his anger and walked to the secretariat table with his head lowered.
Fortunately, there are many people in the box now, and some students in the mess did not notice this scene, otherwise Geng Yang would be even more embarrassed.
But those at the main table all saw it.
Shang Dongling sighed silently. She had read this sentence in a book before:
The world always revolves around a small group of people.
She had never experienced it personally before, but when Geng Yang was driven away just now, she finally had a taste of it.
The reality is really cruel, even in college, it is bloody and fishy.
Wen Quan's face was also pale. She was the first to attack Chen Zhu.
I just didn't expect the warning and slap in the face to come so quickly.
If Teacher Zheng also asked herself to leave the main table, Wen Quan would not know how to face these subordinates and junior students again.
Fortunately, her position is relatively sensitive.
Zheng Ju saved her face.
But when Chen Zhu was pulled over by Zheng Ju and Zhao Chen, Wen Quan wisely moved down a position.
Originally, she and Zhao Chen were supposed to sit on the left and right sides of Zheng Ju.
Now, take the initiative to give it to Chen.
…
No matter what form or level of entertainment it is, as long as the main table is determined, the rest is basically easy to arrange.
Anyway, after Chen Zhu and others were seated, plates of hot dishes were served rudely.
Why use "rude", because this is the characteristic of the restaurant next to the school.
Next to the whirring boiler, items such as kung pao chicken, stir-fried beef river, eggplant stir-fried green beans, shrimp scrambled eggs... were quickly reduced in sauce and plated in the fire, and then thrown on the table with a "slap"
superior.
When eating, there is often a smell of kerosene leakage.
But after working, no matter how high-end the restaurant is, I can never have such memories.
When the orange juice and coconut juice filled the glass, Zheng Ju stood up without hesitation and said:
"Today is a very important day. The three departments of the Student Union have a year-end dinner together. This is something that has never happened before."
"But as Chen Zhu said just now, this is an excellent opportunity to enhance mutual understanding, strengthen the cohesion of the team, and lay the foundation for the next year's student union work."
…
Chen Zhu's face turned red. He had vaguely heard students at other tables discussing him just now.
This dinner party had the meaning of "Chen is not mentioned everywhere, but Chen is inescapable".
"...Classmates, cheers! Happy New Year!"
After Zheng Ju delivered some more impassioned speeches, he finally raised his glass and invited everyone to drink together.
Although there were some unpleasant things just now, college students are always forgetful, and Geng Yang was not the person involved.
Sadness and happiness are not the same.
So when I hear the short blessing phrase "Happy New Year", my mind subconsciously secretes a hormone of excitement and happiness.
Everyone raised their glasses and shouted enthusiastically: "Cheers! Happy New Year!"
"Gududu..."
After happily downing the drink, everyone's faces were filled with smiles.
In fact, some people don't want to smile, but in this environment, they can only pretend to smile awkwardly.
The main table also started chatting lively while picking up food. After "three rounds of drinking", we were all junior and senior students after all.
The topic quickly turned to the heavy and hopeful word "future".
But what’s more funny is that among the students in 985, even Zhao Chen, who has already determined his career direction, looks confused when talking about the future.
What future can we look forward to?
Not really!
"Honestly, I'm not ready to work at all."
Zhao Chen took a sip of his drink and rarely revealed his true feelings on this topic: "It's as if someone is pushing me. Suddenly I am about to enter the workplace. In fact, I feel that I will be affected by some small things. When encountering difficulties, I will even...
Thinking of escaping..."
Zhao Chen's words undoubtedly aroused collective resonance among everyone.
Shang Dongling said that she felt that everyone else was growing up, but she seemed to be stuck in progress, and she often felt anxious and unable to sleep in the middle of the night.
Tao Li said that she thought that at the age of 22, she could finally see mountains, rivers, seas and sunsets everywhere, but it seemed that it had no effect after watching it. She should be depressed at night.
Lu Yuanbo, another deputy director of the Liaison Department, said that after graduation, he even wanted to leave his parents and live in a small town with a slow pace of life, just to be a waste waiting to die.
Zheng Ju and Chen Zhu both listened with smiles.
Zheng Ju actually just graduated with a master's degree and is more like an older college student in terms of mental age.
He may still be on his way to find himself.
As for Chen Zhu, he is already in the state of "the boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains", and has long passed the period of confusion and hitting a wall.
"Chen Zhu."
Just when Chen Zhuanxin was acting as a qualified audience, the pretty senior Tao Li suddenly asked: "What is your dream?"
